   Hello again! How are you'll doing? I hope everyone is safe and healthy. Read this new chapter and enjoy.     
           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                                                            “Ava, are you coming or not? I’m going”, it isn’t late or anything but I don’t know some eagerness to go and meet him, Lorien again makes me wake up and get ready swiftly. “I’m coming. Don’t get too excited” I walk out of the door as Ava runs behind me. Just as we start walking I heard the footsteps behind me. I didn’t know that just the sound of footsteps could bring a smile on my face. “Hey, Ash. Hello, little Ava” there he comes. Ho my God, that smile, that dimple, that look, hmmm, if at all my dream was all true. I could only wish. “Hai Lorien, so you will come along with us to school daily, hum?” “Yes, I will be really happy to come with you little Ava, and also your sister. If only you are fine with it” he looks at me with a smirk. “Hoo, we love to go with you. Isn’t it Ash?” “Hoo yes. We will have a good company. So how do you like  your new school?” As far as I have heard about him, he is recognised as the hottest guy in our school. And here he is walking with us. Living next  to my house. “It is good so far. I didn’t get many friends except you and my little Ava. And it’s only been a few days.” Finally, we reached our school.

                     First period is English. I like English class until any so-called assignments are given. “Hey, Ash….. and Lorien. You both are coming to school together?” Mia askes already sitting on her place. She always comes to class earlier to me. “Hoo yes.” I sit next to her as Lorien sits beside me. Just then miss Stacy entered the class. “Good morning students. Today during the last few minutes of the class I have a surprise waiting for you all.” Well, well, this is not good.  “Ash. Does she always give surprises like this?” hoo boy he has to learn a lot. “Don’t get carried away by it. If she says surprise it will be either a test or an assignment.” His eager expression turned into a pout. The class was about to end. Here comes the surprise part. “Well, students. There are six girls and six boys in this class. I’m having twelve colour balls in this bag. Now I want the girls to come and pick a colour and you are not supposed to show it to anyone.” She is definitely up to something. It was my turn to pick the ball. Speaking of which, this is what I saw yesterday, in my dreams. A red ball. But he was having it in his hand. I went and picked the red ball. “Now the boys come and pick up a ball.” After everyone chose their balls, miss Stacy asked us to show the balls. Great. Just as I saw in dream, just as how I drew, Lorien showed the red ball and so did I. Mia had a green ball, and her pair is Adam. He is an athlete. “Now if I asked you to choose a pair, you will choose your friend and also there will be a commotion. So those of you having the same colour balls will be the pair for the assessment that I’m going to give you’ll. By next week I expect everyone to submit an assignment on any  review.” The bell goes just as she finished giving the instructions.

            “Didn’t I tell you?” I don’t know what to do if I should be happy that I’m paired with him or to be annoyed by the assignment. “It doesn’t seem to be that bad. Anyway, I’m really happy until I get to spend some time with you, or rather, anything that involves you” he winks at me. “Amm, it’s getting late for my next class. I’ll see you later. I quickly run away from that place as I didn’t want that situation to get any awkward. He is happy to spend time with me? Did I hear it correctly, or was I dreaming that he would say it to me? Whatever that is not important right now.

         I usually sit with Mia for lunch at the cafeteria. “How is this even happening” Mia grins at me. “What are you talking about?” She gave me a ‘you know what I’m talking about’ look. “Ok, I really don’t know. But all I know is that my dreams are trying to communicate something to me. Cause it doesn’t seem like coincidence or any other shit.” Most of all it is really creepy. Getting dreams and drawing in my sleep and sometimes getting feelings as if I’m followed or watched by someone. “Ash, don’t burn out. Just relax. What did mister Romeo say to you in class, which made you blush?” Hoo no if she noticed it, then definitely he would have noticed it too. “What Mister Romeo?” Fuck his timing. Why does he always show up at the wrong time like this? “It’s a secret between us.” Please, God, I pray that he should not have listened to the whole conversation. “Can I join you girls if you don’t mind?” “Yes, you can but you have to promise that you will safeguard us from the curse of the other girls” Mia moves her stuff from the table as she says. “Why is it so?” “Dha, you are the so-called hottest guy at school. And if they see you eating with us, that is all it takes to see our photos in the newspaper saying that we were found dead at school” we laugh as he sits across me. “And Ash! What about our assignment?” hoo no I’m really not into these assignments and stuff. “I don’t know. What can we do?” I looked between him and Mia. “ Then we will go to the nearby cafe. We can discuss about it. Is it okay?” I wish I could say yes. But today I really don’t have the mode for it. “Amm, Ava will be waiting. She doesn’t know about it and she will not go home alone” I somehow came up with an excuse. “Fine. Then what about tomorrow? Little Ava can tag along with us. I don’t have any problem.” “No, I’ll ask my dad to pick her up. We can go there tomorrow.”

                        School really sucks. I was waiting by the gait for Ava, just then Lorien came. “I’ll come along with you” he stood beside me. Within few seconds Ava came too. “Hello, little Ave. How was your day?” he asked the question which he wouldn’t have asked, cause even without asking she always complains about possible every class and every teacher. “Don’t ask about it. Not even one class was interesting. Do they think that we are already a scholar in whatever they teach? We don’t know anything. We go to school to learn so it is their job to teach in a way that everyone understands.”

“See you tomorrow Ave. And Ash, don’t forget about tomorrow’s plan. I’ll see you tomorrow. Also, I’ll  come back from school with you from tomorrow if that is okay with you.”  I can clearly feel my sister smirking from being me. “Of course you can come with us. You can even come to our house when you are free. My parents will be happy to meet you. Ash speaks a lot about you.”  Really? Is she born as my sister just so she can embarrass me in front of others? “It’s not like that. I just told them that you are a new student and you sit next to me in class and we both are friends. Nothing else.” My heart is pounding faster than usual as the words slip out of my mouth. “Is it so? Then I’m happy to be friends with you. Now I’m heading to my house. Bye Ash. Bye little Ave.” I see him, walk until he is completely out of my sight. “ I really like the way he calls me little Ave” she hops to the door. “I didn’t know that you both are going on a date already tomorrow.” “Who told you that it was a date? It’s nothing as you think. We are going to the coffee shop to discuss our assignment. And he was the one to come up with this plan.”

                   “Mom, dad Ash is going to the coffee shop tomorrow after school with that Lorien guy” she was screaming as she got inside the house. “Ava I’m not going on a date!” “She didn’t say that you were going on a date” my mom laughed along with my sister. I ran to my room smiling like an idiot. I didn’t feel like eating dinner. So I brushed my teeth and change into my pyjama’s and take out my phone to check if there are any messages. I don’t get any messages that often, but still it has been my habit. I use socials just to follow celebrities. And then I took Wattpad and start to read. Though I’m looking at the screen of the phone, my thoughts are about tomorrow’s plans.
