I hurried to my bookstore next day. It's already 10 minutes late. First thing I saw is Antony. He smiled at me. I smiled back and went near my register table. I started doing all my work. I am so busy with my work. But I could feel that someone is watching me. I looked at Antony but whenever I look at him he pretends like he was reading the book. I ignored him and doing my work. There are books I have to arrange them on the shelf. So I started doing that.
Need some help? Someone asked me from my behind. I looked back. It was Antony. That's okay I said smiling. Now I am free only I can help you he suggested. I nodded. He started arranging some books with my guidance. I kept the last book on the shelf. I completed all my work. Thanks for helping me I said.
It's my pleasure he said. So do you have a boyfriend he asked me? No, I said. Okay, he replied. I had once I told him. What happened? He asked me. We broke up. He cheated on me I said in a sad tone. Oh, I am sorry he said. It's okay I said and turned away because whenever I talk about this I feel like crying. He doesn't deserve you he said.
I smiled.
9 p.m:
It's is the closing time I told to him. He nodded. I grabbed my bag and my phone. Can I drop you? I bought my cycle he said. No, I don't want to bother you I said. No, I want to drop you he said. Okay, I said and sat behind him on his bicycle. I felt so safe and comfortable with him. He stopped his cycle near the ice cream shop. Come with me he said. I followed him. He bought me a ice cream. Thanks, I grabbed the ice cream. It's my treat he said. For what I asked him. For finding the book that I searched for he said. I laughed. He looked at me with so much care. Have you loved your ex so much? He asked me. Yes so so much. Still, now I can't able to forget him I told. I could see that he said. You know something for some reason you seem to like him I said. Really? He asked. Yes, I told him.
He applies some ice cream on my nose. My eyes widened. He laughed. After that, he dropped me in my house. After a long time, I felt good. I slept peacefully.
Past few months I and Antony become so close. He is such a good human being. He becomes my close friend. I love when it when he is around me. He always makes me smile. Whenever I feel sad he does some crazy things to make me smile.
It's been 3 weeks since we started talking. Me, Antony and Ayesha planned to go for shopping. We did some shopping. We went inside to our favourite store. Ayesha and Antony was busy looking at the products. I thought to look around the shop. I was roaming around. I thought to buy some body bath soaps. I even forget about them. It's been half an hour. Sheerin someone shouted my name. I looked at them. It's Antony and Ayesha. What are you doing here? he asked me. Just buying some things I said. Won't you just inform us and leave? I was searching for you this much of time he said. I am sorry I totally forgot about you people. Okay, can we go now? Ayesha asked us. We left the shop. I and Antony will always talk so much but this time he didn't speak a word. I know he is a little bit upset about this. We came near Ayesha house. She left us. I looked at him. Won't you talk to me I asked him? He was controlling so much not to smile at me. But I know him very well he can't be angry with me for even 2 seconds. I stood in front of him and looked him. He finally gave a smile. I smiled and said sorry to him. That's okay but next time tell and go he ordered. I nodded and grabbed his hand. He dropped me at my house. I waved my hand and went inside. I headed towards my room. My phone ranged I picked up. It was Antony.
Hello, I said smiling. Tomorrow are you free? he asked me. Yes, I hope so. Why? I questioned him. There was a carnival going on. Would you mind joining me? He asked me. I love carnival I said in excitement. I know he said. Then why are you asking me. You Should give me a surprise. He chuckled. You should come and pick me up I said. Okay, he agreed. Good night I said. Good night he said and hung up.
Next day:
I was getting ready to go to the carnival. My phone buzzed. I opened it.
Antony:"come down. I was waiting for past 10 minutes now".
I hurried down. I jumped into his car. Won't you wait for at least 10 minutes I said raising my eyebrows? No, he said. I punched in his shoulder. What where you doing this much of time?he asked. That is personal I said. I know. Check your eyelashes it is not in correct place he teased. What? I checked in the mirror. But everything was perfect. I looked at him. He chuckled. Idiot I shouted. He laughed.
I smiled looking at the window. We reached there.
He went to buy tickets. I was waiting for him. Boo! He shouted at me. Oh god! I shouted. You idiot I screamed. He started laughing. Can we go now I asked him? Yes, he grabbed my hands. We went inside.
Thanks for reading friends:
