it's always worse than it seems.

Shivaay smiled and said.
"Sorry, but I have to go now, see you soon Anika", before leaving he spared her another look and her heart warmed.
"Hope so", she murmured smiling.
He left but there was something, something very strange. Anika was smiling, she never smiled that much before.

At night
He laid down on his bed and closed his eyes to fall asleep but sleep was far away, every time he closed his eyes, her picture would come in front of him.
On the other, she felt the same.
No one, no one, not even her family could make her that much happy the way Shivaay did today.

In the morning
Everyone was sleeping just ShivOmRu were on their jogging session.
"What, she's mentally unstable and you're feeling a connection towards her, are you kidding bro?", Ru almost flipped out.
"Love doesn't see how someone is Ru", Om stated smiling.
"What the fuck, love? Have you gone nuts? She's my patient, how can I love her?", Shiv yelled at him.
"Then what do you mean with connection?", Om asked, rolling his eyes.
"I don't know, but when she hugged me, I felt butterflies in my stomach, when she cried I felt goosebumps, when she smiled my heart skipped a beat, maybe I felt sympathy for her", was he lying to them or himself?
"I think the same, bro you can't love her", Ru said while gulping water.
Om smiled.
"Stories mend into truth, once you repeat them with your heart, you'll believe in love when you'll fall"
"You're impossible dude, I can't understand your poetries", Ru said, making sad faces.
"Same, she's also like you, mysterious", Shiv laughed.
"Leave it, she can't be more confusing than Om", Ru smirked.
"She is dude, ok I have to meet her you guys go, I'll come back in an hour", Shiv said, taking his car keys.
"Have to meet her, oohh", both brothers teased him.
"Shut up", Shiv said, shooting daggers.
OmRu giggled seeing his reaction.

The doorbell rang, a half asleep Anika opened the door while rubbing her eyes.
"Ehm, Shirley isn't home and I don't know how much she owes you so please come back when she's home", she closed the door on his face.
