That Kind Of Love

Part 18

I couldn't sleep the whole night, I just kept tossing and turning on my bed thinking about what Aditi had told me, a part of me just dint want to believe that it was the truth, but Aditi was my best friend, she would never lie to me.

Maybe it was a misunderstanding, I know Arnav was mean and everything, but could he really be that heartless not to care about the girl he called his best friend?

I was battling with so many thoughts, I mean he was the guy who kept on threatening everyone, I remember he even threatened to burn my car so he did sound heartless but yet somehow, I dint want to believe it.

Aditi and Jiya's words kept on repeating themselves in my mind, both of them had said it differently buit the only thing they said was that I should stay away from Arnav, and somehow here I was, wanting to be a rebel.

Why was I even willing to rethink this? There wasn't anything between us two, I should just forget about him and act like he dint exist, that's what the both of us have been doing and it's been working pretty well till now.

I mean it was very clear whatever that was between us was just lust, so I was sure it wasn't going to be difficult avoiding him, in a while I would get used to it and then I wouldn't even care about his existence, it sounded like a perfect plan.

*****

Why was it that whenever I made a decision about something, everything would happen in the opposite direction? I mean last night I had made up my mind to stay away from Arnav after the warnings from Jiya and Aditi, but today when I arrived at the college, coincidentally, we both had to arrive at the exact same time and even park our cars next to each other.

It was pretty much awkward when we stepped out of the cars, when I looked at him, Saakshi's image popped up in my mind and I really wanted to ask him why he did what he did, I just wish I could.

As for him, he just looked towards me and then looked away immediately as he grabbed his stuff and walked away acting like I dint exist.

Why was it so easy for him to act like that, why was it difficult for me only?

He made it look so effortless like he actually dint care who I was, and here I was, despite knowing everything, I just couldn't stop thinking about him.

What was wrong with my mind?

"Wow, you look gorgeous today." Jai came out of nowhere surprising me.

"Thanks, I always look gorgeous." I rolled my eyes at him as we both walked out of the parking lot.

"I just mean today you look more than daily. Learn how to take a compliment woman!" he laughed.

"Then tell me something I don't know." I smirked.

"Sometimes you are so mean."

"I know that."

"Okay fine whatever." He rolled his eyes.

We saw Aditi heading towards us excitedly, Jai was literally making faces as he knew Aditi dint like him much.

"Where's your phone? I've been calling you?" Aditi asked.

"It's right here." I pulled it out of the pocket of my jean and showed it to her, and that's when I realized it was switched off.

"I must have forgotten to charge it." I said.

"And what important thing were you doing that you dint even remember to charge your phone?" She folded her arms and looked at me seriously.

"Nothing really. Anyway I've got a class to get to, see you two later and maybe start getting along already" I shrugged as I walked away quickly before she could ask me any more questions.
