The scene opens when the bell rang and all students settle themselves in their respective places waiting for their class teacher to arrive. After sometime the door flung open and there was entry of the old stooping figure of our class teacher Mr. Aggarwal. But this time with a boy, he was kinda nerd with spects but was confident and looked straight at us when he introduced himself.
His name was Karan Raj Singhania and as per his info he is staying just in the next flat to me.
I was busy with revising the notes when Mr. Aggarwal called me and asked to standup. I stood up and then he smiled at me and looked at him to say "take help from her, she stands first in our class and Adhira my girl help him". It was then his eyes met mine and he gave me a genuine smile. I blushed at that but then my body heated hearing gasp from behind.
Mr.Aggarwal asked Mina, the girl beside me to shift one desk back to make him sit next to me so that he can get well aquainted. Seeing him my stomach made many backflipps because it was the first time when some but sat beside me. He came and made himself comfortable beside me, I was observing closely from my corners of eye keeping my head tucked in my book so that he doesn't find me looking at him and think of me being a creep but then suddenly I felt a tuck on my skirt.
I averted my gaze to where it was coming from but the I saw he was sitting half way on my skirt, I saw he didn't even see that and so I silently tried to pull but my actions made him look at me and then understanding the situation he moved a bit and the skirt automatically came into its position.
I looked at him who was looking at me with deep black eyes and mouthed 'sorry' so I smiled at him and then we both focussed on our class. After sometime the class ended and then another started, time to time he called me, nugged me to clear off his doubts and I did without hesitating. He was a perfect specimen of handsome buy with spects but at the same time I could feel daggers and as I looked I saw the so called pretty girls glaring at me.
I didn't have any friends to love but many to bully me. Tiffin period came and I stood up to go but he was blocking my path so I nugged him and then he closed his copy and stood up forwarding his hand
"hii"
"yes...hello" I said politely.
"so ur name...i ..umm" he scratched his back of head
"Adhira" I smiled and said instantly interrupting him
"can we be friends?" but then as I was going to answer him Tina, our class co-ordinator came forwarding his hand
"hiii..myself Tina" She smiled mischiveously.
"karan" as he took her hand and smilingly answered.
"let's go ..we are friends right..."she held her hand tightly and pulled him...
"umm...actually " he was interrupted by her as she continued to speak
"what will you do with this blacky fatass...u will only get bored" and dragged him out with her to meet her group.
I felt sad and tears started to form in my eyes and so I sat there putting my head down, feeling disgusted. Everytime, everyday I get criticised by them for my colour and figure. But after a few minutes when I felt poke my arm on which my head rested and then I looked up to find in surprise , he was standing.
"ummm ..you here" as I rubbed my eyes.
"you didn't answer me" he asked with a polite smile
"what..."I couldn't understand and fidgeted with my fingers
"can we be friends" he asked which made me see him in shock, a guy asking me to be his friend.
There was silence and then I smiled at him and said yes with nodding my head.
He sat and then we chatted for ample time eating our food, he didn't bring anything except a packet of biscuits since his dad was learning to make food and recently his mom passed away.So I forwarded my tiffin but he discarded it
"take it na" I forwarded the box
"no..eat..i won't" he pushed the box
"then I will never talk with you"
"ok" and then he took my food and chewed the part of paratha that my granny had cooked. She was the last one left with me.
He was reading in science but had a great interest in business and he was truly knowledgable.
Then I asked him again "why didn't you stay with them ..I mean they are cool..and here..I mean..u know.."
But the answer he said made butterflies to errupt in my stomach and literally I blushed.
