Loving him is my mistake(#wattys 2019)

Chapter 45

Krithi:

Why the heck he is staring me like that?!!!

"Where you are going?"Uncle asked,"I'll drop you.."

"S.R Plaza uncle.."I answered,eyeing Yash who didn't even blinking his eyes,seriously?!!!,"But I'll take cab uncle."

"Hey,are you going to Goutham's party?"Jai entered in.

"Is today his birthday?"Aunty asked.

"Yes aunty!!And Jai how do you know Goutham?"I asked instantly and felt foolish at the next minute,'Krithi,they are friends since child hood!!!'

Jai smiled confused,"Hey...why are you asking like you---"He paused giving me a tight smile,"Ahh..We are--he is my best friend,I mean Yashwanth's best friend.."

"Oh!!Is it?"I acted surprised,looking Yash and Jai.

"Yes...Goutham never told you about Yashwanth?"Aunty asked.

"Huh??"I was slightly scared what to answer,"Umm....He might have told me....I mean I am not so close to him."I finally spelled out some reason,mentally slapping myself.

"Oh!I think Yashwanth is also going for that party.You go along with him.Why you have to take cab.Is that okay Yashwanth?"Uncle said but there is no moment in Yash.I glared at him since everyone's eyes are on him,his eyes on me.

Jai suddenly pulled him back and then he came to earth.He listening Jai,frowned and then he looked at his dad.

"Yeah dad.."he finally replied and came to me,"Shall we go?"

Smiling at everyone,we walked out of living room and I felt breathing again.I didn't notice that I am holding my breath till now.

Once we came out and after assuring no one is in sight I opened my mouth,"Why you are staring me like that?"I whispered-shouted.We stopped walking.

"Huh?What I have to do when you are so---"He paused for a second,"-Beautiful."Saying he left towards his car.I looked back making sure that no one listened him and I followed him.

"Krithika...I can't take off my eyes from you..."He said once I reach him,"And walk few feet away from me,it is so difficult to keep my hands with me.."

I again stopped walking and he looked back at me,"Yashwanth are you okay?"

"Yeah!Perfectly alright now.."He smiled widely and we both got into car.

"Goutham didn't invited Jai?"I asked once we are on road.

"He did,but Jai has some work.."

I stayed silent,not making any conversation.

"Krithi...I gave compliment to you.What about me?How is my dress?"

He wore a pale pink formal shirt tucked in grey trousers and of course he is so handsome.

"Bad."

He laughed,"I think you had forgotten,you selected this shirt and this combination."

"I didn't know that this would look bad on you."

"Oh..okay."He said focusing on driving.Didn't he get hurt?'I thought.

"I'll feel sad if you speak harshly with your heart,not with your lips.."He said and I thought its better to stay silent.

After few minutes,we reached the destination.We entered in as Yash greeted some people and he came across a person.

"John.."Yash called him,smiling widely and that person whom Yash called made a shocking face.
