My Heaven is You - AdiYa

Chapter-19

Zoya walked out of the library sneakily, not wanting to meet Aditya so soon. Her plan of studying in the library got flop as her mind was only thinking about Aditya and the dream kiss she had. She entered into her class and sat on the last bench and ducked her head into her book so that she couldn't be seen. The students started entering in the class and she spotted Aditya standing at the door, searching for her along with Pooja. After a minute or so, she saw them walking in the class and sitting on their usual seat. When she was sure that they are no longer looking for her, she sighed in relief and put her head down on the desk.
"Dreaming about me?" Aditya jumped on the seat beside her and gave her a wink. Zoya jerked up from her position hearing his voice and kept her hand on her thumping heart.
"Can you stop scaring me everytime by coming up so suddenly?" Zoya questioned while huffing out a breath.
"Well, I can't. See it feels so nice to see your scared face." Aditya smiled mischievously.
"Now just keep quiet and sit here. If you talk and distract me then I will push you out of my seat." Zoya chided him.
"Wait a second Lioness" Aditya frowned. "You were the one who used to start the conversation most of the time in between the class and all of a sudden I became the distractor one." He said pretending to be mock angry.
"Shhhhh" Zoya kept her finger on her lips and gestured him to be silent. "Don't distract me Doofus." She said frowning and trying to concentrate on her books. Aditya looked at her with a frowning pout.

The class went on, with Aditya's head ducked in the book pretending to be listening to the lecture but in reality he was using his phone while Zoya was looking at him.
"Don't look at me like that. You are distracting me." Aditya said copying her words.
"I...I am not looking at you. I am looking into your phone. What are you doing? You know you should concentrate in the class atleast now. Exams are near She immediately turned the topic and scolded him.
"You are concentrating, aren't you?" He wiggled his eyebrows. " So I will come at night into your room and then you can teach me. You teach way better than this professor." Aditya grinned at her. He looked at Zoya who was looking at his phone and then at him frowning so he continued, "Okay don't give these angry looks. I am keeping my phone aside. But you need to talk to me for that. I am getting bored. Why are you behaving so weird today Zoya?" Aditya whined.
The bell rang interrupting their conversation.
"I am going. Bye." Zoya just said hurriedly and went out of the class. Aditya followed her.
"Wait Zoya. Where are you going? It's lunch time." Aditya reasoned.
"I am not hungry. I need to study." Saying this she walked towards the library leaving him alone in the corridor.

She was sitting in the library when her stomach growled indicating her that she needs to eat something. She went towards the cafeteria and found Pooja and Yash sitting on a table with no sign of Aditya anywhere.
"Hi! Where is Aditya?" Zoya questioned while taking a seat beside them.
"He is with Mahi. They both are busy in making out." Yash replied casually which made Zoya's eyes come out of her sockets.
Pooja saw Zoya's reaction and she chuckled. "Relax Zoya, he is kidding. Aditya went out to take an important call, might be from his office." She said to Zoya and turned towards Yash. " One more time I find you saying such idiotic and lame jokes, I swear I will break your glasses Yash." Pooja scowled at him and he nodded meekly.
"Zoya just go and profess your love for him." Yash said looking at Zoya seriously.
"I don't know love him." Zoya said gazing at the floor.
"Wow okay that's great. I think you should date someone now. It's been a while since you came in this college and there are many good dudes here. You will get experience Zo." Pooja said excitedly.
"What? NO. What are you saying Pooja?" Zoya asked in shock.
"What no no Zoya? You just wait." She said and looked here and there. "See that guy, sitting over there." She pointed at a guy sitting in a corner." He looks so handsome." She said and dragged her to him. She plopped on the vacant seat infront of that guy along with Zoya.
"Hey Hi! This is Zoya and myself Pooja." She said motioning towards Zoya first and then herself. "You were sitting alone here so we thought to give you company." She looked at her watch. "I'll be back in a minute. You guys can talk till then." Saying this, she went out of the place hurriedly.
"She is little crack. I am sorry. I need to go." Zoya stood up immediately and tried to leave when her wrist was held by the guy.
"Hey, it's okay. Please sit. We can talk for a while." The unknown guy said smiling.
"No Please I..I don't.." Zoya trailed off awkwardly, not knowing how to deny him politely. "Okay" she sat unwantedly for a while listening to whatever the guy was saying. After a while, she saw Aditya coming into the cafeteria and he looked at her standing a steps away. A feeling of hurt swirled in his black-brown orbs and soon it disappeared. He walked to her and held her hands in his.
"I don't think she is interested in your talks." Saying this he dragged her along with him out of the cafeteria.
"Adi.. Aditya I..." Before she could complete, Aditya cut her off in between. "Yeah? I know you need to go somewhere right? " He looked at her questioningly. Zoya just nodded her head in 'YES'.
"Fine. Bye." Aditya said a little louder and went from there. Zoya looked at his retreating form and sighed in sadness.

The leftover classes went by as usual. Zoya was sitting along with Pooja and Yash as Aditya didn't attend any of the remaining classes.
"I am sure Adi likes you." Pooja whispered to her. "I am not mad to leave you with that unknown guy alone. Did you see Adi and his reactions at that time?" Pooja looked at her grinning but her grin turned into a frown when Zoya nodded her head in 'NO'.
"You are dumb Zoya. He was hurt seeing you spending time with someone else instead of him. He is just as dumb as you so he didn't realise it yet." Pooja smirked.
"He was hurt because I am his best friend not because he likes me. You are thinking too much Pooja." Zoya said pouting.
"I was right! You are just as dumb as him." Pooja mocked her.
Zoya looked at his number in her dialling list and then called him but she got no response.

The classes were over and she went back to her home. She busied herself in house works and then went to the pub.
"I think I just overreacted. I ignored him for no reason. He must be mad at me now." Zoya thought and called him again but got no response again.
"I am sorry Aditya." She said while looking at his name in the phone and resumed her work, hoping to solve this when he comes to pick her up.

After her shift got over, she went outside the pub and saw his car parked. She happily went and knocked on the window. The window rolled down and she found Aditya's elderly driver Inside it.
"Ma'am, Aditya Sir asked me to drop you home. Please sit." The driver said politely.
Zoya's face fell looking at the driver. "He is so mad at me that he didn't even come for dropping me off." She thought to herself and wiped a tear that fell from her left eye.
"I will go by myself uncle." She told him politely.
"Beta please. Aditya sir will be angry at me then. He strictly asked me to drop you at your home safely." The driver said.
"Okay." Saying so, she sat in the car and the driver drove off.
She entered in her room and did all her remaining work. She had no appetite for any food so she directly fell into her bed so that she can sleep and have some peace when someone knocked at her window. She stood up and went towards the window.
"Who is this?" She asked without opening the window this time.
"Aditya" Aditya replied.
Her frown was changed into a wide grin and she opened the window happily. As soon as he entered inside her room, she jumped on him, hugging him tightly. Aditya stumbled back due to the force and the shock but stabled soon.
"I missed you so much." She spoke. "You didn't even come to pick me Aditya." Zoya's eyes were filled with tears.
"I just came to check if you reached safely or not. I am going." Saying so he unwrapped her hands which were around his torso. Zoya's tears came out seeing him going back.
"Why are you not talking to me?" Zoya asked while wiping her tears with the back of her hands.
"I thought you wanted to stay away from me, that's why you were avoiding me the whole day. You were free to sit with that random guy and chat but you were too busy for me. Why were you avoiding me Zoya?" He looked at her a little angrily. But then his anger was replaced by guilt and he looked at her. "Did I do something wrong? Are you upset with me? Tell me Zoya, I am sorry. I can never hurt you knowingly, you know that. Don't you?" Aditya asked.
Zoya looked at him with tears in her eyes. "How can he be so innocent? Just like a Baby. Still thinking it to be his mistake when it was all her stupidity." She thought.
"I am sorry Aditya. You did not do anything to hurt me. I was just being doofus today. Sorry please." She looked at him with her puppy eyes which melted Aditya and he hugged her.
"I missed you too. See that's why I came here." He said chuckling.
They broke the hug and Zoya looked at him confusingly.
"You brought the books?" Zoya questioned.
"Yes, teach me now." He ordered her sheepishly. "I did not pay attention in the class today." He grinned.
"Me neither" Zoya whispered to herself.
"What did you say?" Aditya asked.
"Nothing. Go and sit there. I will be back in a minute." Saying so she went to take her books and came back.
"I was not able to sleep without talking to you Zoya. Don't ever pull this ignoring stunt on me, okay?" Aditya said seriously.
"Sorry. I will never do this. Promise." Zoya said while pinching the skin of her neck.
Aditya chuckled at her reaction. "I think I am addicted to you. I was a mess until now." He grinned shaking his head while Zoya's heart just thumped louder hearing him. She shook her head and looked at him. "Now study." Zoya ordered and Aditya laughed.
