*Feelings are a funny thing, sometimes so easy to express and sometimes so damn hard! And the choice of whether to express or not, such a stressful decision.
That's what went on and on in his head, the conflict between whether to tell or not to tell.......... tell what you may ask, let's get into his mind in this chapter!!*
A week had passed since that incident and yet he couldn't get his head off the incident cause in a way it got the two of them closer but yet he was afraid, what if the feelings he had for her were not felt by her for him.
A point to be noted was that since the incident she had got more flirty with him and he clearly reciprocated but yet he wasn't sure of what his move should be. A few days after the tuitions had stopped for holiday break, he asked her if she wanted to hangout and she clearly showed interest and said "Yesssssssssss!!"
So now he had to choose where he wanted to go with her, some place romantic hoping it would spark something between them and so he was lost in thought when his phone rang, he flipped it over to see it was just a call from our well known friends,"Airtel customer care"!!
This sudden call made him realize something, before he flipped the phone the thought that came to his mind was "I hope its her!!", this just made things clearer to him that he was really looking forward to being with her. He kept his phone aside and lay on his bed to think where he wanted to go with her.
He finally got an idea of where to go, so he picked up the phone and called her and told her "Today 7 PM sharp outside the tuitions.", she replied, "Sure, see you then". He had a plan in mind, something he thought would really workout. With immense excitement he went to the bathroom and got freshened up, came out and wore nice clothes and put on his 'Special occasion perfume'.
It was around 6.55 PM when he left his house, the tuition was nearby so he left this late. He got to the tuition and as soon as she was in his sight he stopped and blinked twice, What a stunning top she was wearing!! She saw him and as soon as she saw him she started to wave at him and went up to him, "Why did you stop here??", she asked."You are looking really pretty today!!", he replied. "Awwwww, Thank you so much.", she said. He looked at her and said "Let's go, we have somewhere to be", she looked into his eyes and said , "Alright let's go." And they started to walk. She felt that route was familiar and asked "Have we been here before??", with a smile on his face he replied, "You'll know soon enough!!"
They walked for a few minutes in silence and then they finally reached. As soon as they reached he looked at her face and said, "This is where we are gonna sit and talk." The look on her face said it all, that she knew this place, what happened here the last time and obviously made her realize that this place meant something to him, yet just to clarify she asked him, "Why here?? Does this place mean something to you??"
He said, "Yes this place was where I fell in love with this girl who really means a lot to me and she has a habit of playing pranks on me." She didn't really need any more confirmation that he was talking about her yet she asked, "She must mean a lot to you, huh??" He replied, "Yes."
*By the way if you payed attention to the last chapter you would know where they were...........*
They went in and sat down, close and facing each other. For few seconds they were looking into each others eyes in silence when she suddenly spoke up, "So how have you been??" and he asked her, "Can I be honest with you??" She looked at him and said, "Ofcourse you can, tell me what is it??" He replied, "I miss seeing you everyday at the tuitions." In a joyful tone she replied, "Well I'm here with you now, so let's catch up with each other shall we??"
With the brightest of the smiles he replied, "Apart from seeing you, that's another reason why I wanted to meet you." They spoke for around an hour and a half till her phone rang, it was her mom and she had to be home.
*If you haven't figured it out yet, they were at the park where the first spark had ignited*They came out of the park and she looked at him with that same sadness in her eyes as that day, after the tuitions. He said, "Let me guess, want me to drop you home??" The sadness converted into happiness now and she shook her head yes.
While walking back to her house, she asked him, "The girl you fell in love with at the park, is it me??" He looked at her with the same conflict in his head as the start of the day, should he tell her or not?? He replied, "What do you think??" She came close to him and put her hand in his hand and said, "I know it's me ; )"
They reached her doorstep when her sister came out and saw them holding hands and looked at her and said, "So you told him it wasn't a prank??"
