There is freedom waiting for you, On the breezes of the sky, And you ask "What if I fall?" Oh but my darling, What if you fly?

Am I delusional or is Ayman purposely ignoring Aahil? Last time I checked, they were best friends.

I stopped in my tracks which made Ayman stop with me as he was holding my hand, I raised my eyebrows at him and from his looks, he knew what was I was going on about but he was faking innocence, it was so obvious.

Aahil called Ayman's name once again from the back and Ay tried to pull my hand but I didn't budge.

"What on earth is wrong with you?" I questioned him just when Aahil caught up with us, he glanced at me once and then quickly averted his gaze to the floor, weird!

Or maybe the floor looks beautiful today, eh nevermind.

"What's wrong with me?" he questioned back, really? Is he now going to play that game with me?

"Aahil has been calling you since we came out of the car and you completely blanked him, is there something I don't know?" I asked curiously, Ay and Aahil have never ever been on silent treatments so this was really confusing me.

"NO" Ay and Aahil answered in unison, weird again!

"Then do you care to explain your attitude towards him?" I interrogated further, to be honest I was just curious to know what the hell happened between them.

"He... um he didn't um... yeah he didn't answer my phone um last night" Ay said quite unsurely, with all the um's and the stuttering, even a dumb person could tell he's lying. It was THAT obvious!

"And being his clingy girlfriend you are, it pissed you off?" I joked and started laughing but wasn't joined by the 2 boys, Awkward.

Ay completely ignored me and turned to Aahil with a fake smile, "what did you want?"

Aahil, the once smirky jerky was now looking nervous and replied, "I just wanted to talk to you about something... can we meet after school?" he asked hopefully to which Ay rolled his eyes.

"Sorry I can't, Ayesha and I are going for ice cream"

"We are?" I asked, confused at the whole situation but still excited for ice cream.

We haven't gone for ice cream in a long time, the last time we went was the day I got *ahem* arrested. Those were the days!

The bell in the hallways went off signaling the first period and so Ay took my hand in his once gain and we both headed towards our English class, leaving a half dead looking Aahil behind. Now I said I'll behave with my words but Aahil seriously looked like he walked out of a tunnel after 30 years. With the dark circles and eye bags, even a blind person could say something was definitely wrong!

******

With the lack of response from my friends, jerks, and brother, I decided to take matters in my own hands. I really wanted to find out whatever the hell that has been going on between Ay and Aahil.

Well the first person who always knows about every gossip is supposedly my best friend diya, but according to her, Ay and Aahil look normal. So I skipped to the close second gossip girl in school, Zermeen.

Yeah, even I can't believe I'm asking Barbie for help!

"I don't really know, but I did hear them speaking about some letters, oh and Aadil had punched Aahil because of the same letters" she answered, well that was easy. Wait... what letters?
