“Don't. Touch. Me.” Varun said, gritting his teeth making me to back off in shock.

I haven't seen him behave in this way, before atleast without a valid reason and now he is giving me a heart attack.

“Varun.” I managed to speak making him roll his eyes.

“Look, what do you want?” He asked.

“Means. Varun, what are you talking about? Are you upset on me? Did I do something wrong?” I asked.

“Yes,you did. You are fucking up everything.” He yelled grabbing the other students attention making me embarrassed to say the least.

“Varun........” Arjun spoke but Varun gave a death glare at him to shut his mouth.

“I asked you what do you want?” Varun asked.

“I......I just came to see you.” I said.

“Fine. You are seeing me, now. Happy. Now get out if here.” He said.

“Are you out of your mind? What happened to you all of a sudden?” I asked.

“Look Shraddha, don't expect me to be behind always. I am not your dog. Do you get it?” He asked.

“Varun you are my boyfriend.” I whispered.

“I was. Not anymore.” He said taking the breath out of me. I was not at all liking the way it was heading and I wanted to slap him and run away.

But much to my dismay, I stayed in the same spot looking at him with pleady eyes.

“What do you mean by not anymore?” I asked.

“It means, I am breaking up with you. Got it?” He asked.

That's it. I was almost in the verge of tears by now but I held it. I am aldready getting embraced by him. I did not wanted to look like a fool in front of him.

“But why?” I asked, desperately but he didn't reply.

“I loved you Varun and you loved me........” He raised his hand to stop my talking.

“Woah. Stop there.......love? Seriously, when did I say I have fallen in love with you?” He asked. —It was then his words hit me like a hurricane.

I remember the day he asked to be his girlfriend. I remember the day I confessed my love for him and he did not say it back.

He never uttered those words to me and I just assumed he feels the same about me.

How could I be so dumb?

arun noticed my fallen face and stepped forward.

“Look Shraddha, I do not want to hurt you. You are a wonderful girl which is why I made you my girlfriend and I enjoyed every bit of your company......” He said.

“But now the school's over and it's good for us if we part ways. I am moving on in my life and I suggest you to do move on as well.” He said giving me his perfect fake smile.

“So, you lied to me all these days.” I said.

“No of course not. See, you captured my attention when you slapped me. You were different and I liked it. But, I never said, I will stick on to you for the rest of my life, did I? That will be hilarious.” He said and laughed.

“Come on Shraddha, give me one little reason as to why I have to stay with you?” Varun asked, crossing his arms and looking at me, sternly.

I had no words. There was no reason at all because he did not loved me. He never did in the first place.

I was just a mere girlfriend to me. A tag along piece which he used for time pass and now the school's over, he does not need me, anymore.

He can move on with any of the girls, he wants to be with.

"See you..... Oops! Good bye. Don't miss me too much."He said, winking at me. He waved at me and went off leaving me all alone while I desperately watched his figure slowly getting disappear from my vision.

Arjun came to confront me but I assured him I was fine.

“I am not surprised. He was playing with you, he plays with every ither girls as well. He was never serious in relationships, Shraddha nor was he in love. I am sorry for not letting you know earlier. It's my fault as well.” Arjun said but I weakly shook my head.

“He never loves anyone.He just plays with girls until he gets tired.” He said.

He continued speaking but my mind completely blocked him as well as the surroundings.

I was having a mixture of emotions right now. —Pain, betrayal, embarrassed, hurt, anger.

My heart was in pain because of myself. Anger that he used me for revenge. Hurt that he betrayed me. I was embarrassed in front of other people.

I started walking. —Tears started blurring my vision. I blinked my eyes rapidly.

I heard someone calling my name. Someone held my hand.

“Don't say it. I saw what happened.” It was Alia.

"It's all my fault." I whispered.

“It's not your fault.” She said.

"No. I could have seen this happening. How could I be so fucking blind? I have seen this coming if I looked into it, properly. But, I never did. I am such a foolish girl.” I said and a single drop of tear escaped from my eye.

She remained silent.
"I want to go home." I said.
 
We sat inside her car. We were silent through out the drive until I reached my home.

"Thanks Alia. I want to be alone right now." I said and slammed the door before she could say anything. 

I opened the door and ran to my room. I feel myself on the bed and cried. The pain, I was holding all these while came down in the form of tears.

I loved you, Varun. How could you do that to me? How could you be so heartless and walk away?

The days we spent together means nothing to you?

I weeped again. I never cried this much in my life, before. It hurts. It hurts like hell to loose a person you love the most.

It's the worst thing anyone could ask for.
