LOVE OR FRIENDSHIP?

Saturday

Salman's POV

Soon it was time for another get together. This time we asked Harry if he can lend his house for us to spend the day and he agreed, so did his parents. Harry had only a younger sister, Clara's her name, and I haven't seen her nor do I know much about her since she didn't attend our school. She goes to another school and she studies in grade five.

*Beep beep beep*

My alarm rang as I switched it off wanting to go back to sleep but I suddenly remembered that I have to go to Harry's place today. I lazily lifted my ass up and crawled to the washroom. I did what I had to do in the washroom and came out wrapping my white towel around my waist after having a bath, water droplets dripping down my body from my head.

I stood in front of the closet trying to choose an outfit for the day. I picked up a white t-shirt and my light blue rip jeans and a black jacket to wear over it. After I wore my jeans I removed the towel from my waist and wiped the drops of water from my body.

I stood in front of the mirror playing with my wet hair trying out different hairstyles when I heard my phone vibrating I peeped into it finding a message from Omar.

"Hey! Are you ready? I'll pick you up."

I replied back to him, "Alright. At which time?" sitting on my bed focusing on the phone waiting for Omar's reply.

He replied in a minute, "In five minutes time?"

Oh God, I've not dressed yet, but that's not a big thing for me, I can do it in a minute or two.

"Okay"

I wore my white t-shirt and then my black leather jacket. I headed downstairs after wearing my shoes. As I grabbed a bun from the dining table and gulped it down, I heard a toot of a vehicle and my phone rang at the same time. A call from Omar. I kissed mom a goodbye and stepped out of the house.

As I expected Omar was here and off we went to Harry's place. We found the house quite easily with the help of directions and rang the bell. Harry opened the gate for us and we went inside to the living room. Half of the crowd is present and only a few more to come. Just after we went, not more than ten minutes the rest of them came too.

Always, wherever we go, we get a welcome drink. So this time for a change Harry suggested if we want some hot plain tea and as we agreed for it after around half an hour we got the plain tea.

We climbed up the stairs to Harry's bedroom. It's not very huge but it suffices Harry because he's the only boy in his family and he doesn't share his room with anyone, its only his.

As we enter his room, there's a study table towards the left along with a chair, a closet towards the right, a dressing table next to it with a mirror and a double bed opposite to it.

"A typical nerd's room" Edgar said and gained a shot at his shoulder from harry.

"I was about to tell that"

"Dedicated much"

"Good job, Harry"

"Keep it up"

"Enough" Harry roared annoyed which made us all laugh.

Especially his study table, it looks exactly like a nerd's. He had pasted stuffs on the wall, like schedules and time tables to study and so on.

His bed sufficed all ten of us as we took our seats there. We had a deep conversation and didn't realize time passing by.

"Harrryyyy" we heard his mom call and he answered it from the window.

"Why mammaaaa?"

"The lunch is readyyy."

"Okayyy, I'll be there in a while."

Harry took us downstairs to the dining hall and we had lunch there. The food was delicious and we ate beyond our limits. We had no space in our tummies for dessert. We stayed at the living room for around half an hour and then had the dessert although our tummies were still filled.

After eating a lot we weren't very active and we wanted to get rid of it. We went around Harry's house. The house isn't very spacious but it had three floors. There is no garden in front, only a car park. There are two halls and then the dining hall and the kitchen, a guest room at one side. The backyard is very tiny and I don't think all ten of us can fit into it.

From a corner of the hall starts the wooden staircase and as we climb up, after turning to the right side, towards the left is Clara's room and towards the right is Harry's room and in front is the master bedroom which is bigger than the other rooms.

If we turn to the left side from the staircase, we find a balcony which is quite big. The view from it is nice. We can see the vehicles in the road if we go to the far end part of the balcony. Other than that we see few buildings and many trees.

Then up again through the staircase which leads to the rooftop. The rooftop looks big and nice. One area is covered with a roof for shelter and the other area is open. The wind there is amazing and there's less noise pollution.

We stayed at the rooftop for a while wandering here and there on our own, enjoying the breeze. After I breathe in some fresh air, I feel comfortable and I feel like the heaviness in my tummy is reducing. 

After a while of enjoying the fresh wind, we went downstairs back to Harry's room. Everyone seems to be tired after doing nothing but eating.

"Guys, let's do something productive"

"Yeah"

"But what?"

"Suggest!"

"What about 'Truth Or Dare'?"

"Well, I'm in"

"Me too"

"Same here"

Everyone agreed.

"But not on the bed."

"Nor in the room"

"Yeah we'll feel like sleeping again"

"Where else can we go?"

"Let's go to the rooftop or the balcony?"

"As long as its shady"

"Sunshine at this time?" It was around 4:00pm

"Yep dude, the evening sun."

"Alright, Let's get going"

We went to the balcony first to check if it was sunny, but it wasn't. The sun was lowering down and only at the edge of the balcony there was a little bit of sunshine.

The balcony was clean so we could sit on the ground without putting any cloth or mat. We sat forming a circle. 

A short boring chapter yeah? Probably the next few are going to be interesting. 

How do you expect the 'Truth or Dare' to be? Comment below.

Vote and share as well.
