Anomalous Romance 🌸

Disclosures 🌸

Riya's viewpoint :

"You can't keep your eyes off him, ha?" Ashwati teased Samikhya regarding Ishan, making me giggle.

"They're always romancing." I rolled my eyes playfully.

"Shut up guys." Samikhya huffed, followed by a giggle.

"What? Its true." Ashwati laughed and I agreed.

"Hey girls." Shubman came to us.

"Hi baby." Samikhya teased him while he took the water bottle from my hands.

Shubman shook his head with a giggle and then passed Samikhya a flying kiss, which she caught in air.

"Stop it guys it's really cheesy." Ashwati facepalmed herself.

"I enjoy these." Samikhya giggled.

Those three kept mocking each other and I got lost in Abhay again. Everytime I see him, my heart flutters.

Watching him play cricket so passionately always soothes my heart. I can sense the dedication he has for the sport and his achievements make me so happy.

Since childhood I've seen him work so hard over himself and he deserves to excel so much.

"Hmmmm... so you're in love again." Shubman's voice distracted my thoughts.

I looked at him to see him watching me with his palm glued to his cheek while sitting on the ground.

"What? No." I huffed.

"Tum mujhse jhooth nahi bol sakti Riya. I know you really well." He said while holding my hand in his. He's right actually.

"I don't know Shub. The feelings won't just go away overnight." I sighed.

"If it doesn't, maybe it's not meant to." He passed me a sad smile.

"You won't understand the weight of these words Shub because you aren't in a situation like me." I looked away as I felt my eyes getting watery.

"Even I love someone Riya, someone I can't have." Shubman told me and my eyes widened.

"What?" I asked in shock.

Shubman has always been distant from girls apart from his close friends, who are Samikhya, Ashwati and me. He wasn't interesting in dating anyone either and has never talked about loving someone ever. How come its possible now?

"I still love her." He described in a heartbroken voice.

"Who's she?" I asked.

"We were in the same school. She was my best friend and I loved her." He answered.

"Aur woh tumhe like nahi karti thi?" I questioned.

The moment Shubman was about to answer me, Ashwati grabbed our attention.

"By the way, Shub and Riya tumlog bhi suno." She said to us.

"Bolo." I replied.

"Fresher's party hone waali hai." Ashwati announced.

"Wow! Tasty food!" Abhay exclaimed and then licked his lips.

"Abey yaar." Ishan facepalmed himself.

"Roz pizza khaata hai phir bhi sharm nahi aati." Shubman mocked at Abhay.

"Hatt." Abhay huffed, making us laugh.

"Bakwaas band karo and listen to me. Dean ne aaj second year ke class representatives ki meeting arrange ki thi aur inform kiya that two weeks mein fresher's hoga, for first year students. Also, scholarship students ke liye bhi special event arrange hoga." Ashwati described.
