Just Friends (COMPLETED)

2 states - one happy, one sad

Rohan's POV:

"Rohaaaaannnn!!" Ishika squealled entering my room, but pouted immediately as she saw me "What?? I can't believe you slept already!"

"Yeahh! Almost." I straightened up on my bed, leaning against the wall, while she helped herself, grabbing a pillow and sitting besides me.

"Why so early? You're OK?" She asked worriedly, putting a hand on my forehead.

"Nothing much. Was just a bit tired today." I said yawning, not looking towards her. I had actually drowned myself playing vigorously today, to keep the thoughts of their date away from my head.

"Why do have to play so much of cricket if its that tiring!"

"Football today!" I corrected her.

She rolled her eyes grabbing the TV remote from the table. "Yeah yeah Whatever! I seriously don't understand your madness for games sometimes."

I chuckled slightly, correcting her again"Sports!"

Nothing new in that anyways! You dont understand my madness for many things Ishu.

She shook her head "And there I was, waiting for you and Di for our rounds. But anyways, good that you're home. We anyways wouldnt be able to be down for long."

I snapped my head towards her while she was still changing the channels "Why?"

"What why? Its SATURDAY today dude! Comedy nights with Kapil! How can we miss it!" She said excited. "You owe me this one! I bet you totally forgot about it! Now, since I'm here, I'll watch it here only."

This is one more thing that I totally adored about Ishika. Actually, any guy would! That she never liked to watch the sappy daily soaps or annoyingly romantic chick flicks and all. She preferred reality shows, action and comedy instead, much like the guys. That's one more reason she was so easy to be with. I mean, which guy wouldnt like such a girl!

"Ohh yaa. I actually did forget!" She gave me a truimpant look, as if, if I hadnt watched it, I would've just lost my life!

We started watching the show, breaking into fits of laughter every now and then.

"So.. ask" She said, looking towards me with a huge smile during the break.

I looked at her, confused "Ask? What?"

She rolled her eyes "About my date silly! I know you wanna ask sooooo many things to me. So, here I am. Shoot!"

There she goes again. Picking up the topic I was deliberately trying to avoid.

But still, keeping my good-friend reputation intact, I asked her some silly 'what happened' questions, and she went on and on about how hot Sachin looked today, movie time and maybe many more things which I didnt even listen to. She was so lost in her sweet bubble that she didnt even notice that I wasn't listening.  WAIT!

"What? What did you just say?" I asked her to repeat as my ears happened to collect something like you and Rohan thing.

"Yaa! Can you believe that! Even I was shocked when he asked Is there anything between you and Rohan? I mean, like, I almost ROFLed hearing that." She laughed as if it was the most funniest joke of the century. Like, I've never seen her laugh that hard even at Kapil's jokes.

After she sobered a bit, I asked, probably already guessing the answer, but I still wanted to hear from her "So.... what did you answer?"

"What could I say Rohan? I mean, I was struggling so hard not to laugh out loud at that time. What could be there between you and me yaar. Seriously, it was so dumb!"
