Fated To Love You

Chapter 3

During the lunch break,

Himani packed up her bags and walked out of the class. Whole day, She was sitting alone on the back bench. She didn't talk to anyone since morning, and others also didn't make any effort as they were busy among themselves. She was silently reading a book without getting distracted by Sumedh's or Abhishek's presence.

Ruhi also packed up her stuffs and left from the class after looking at Siddharth for once. He was busy laughing with other students that he didn't notice her noticing him.

Siddharth's fans went to him and happily said, "We are so happy that finally we met. We really love you Siddharth."

"I am happy too after meeting all of you."Siddharth smiled widely, "Please, sit with us."

"Why not."They smiled and sat down, "So, are you going to attend all classes ? Or, you will be busy in shoots ?"

"The shoot of Alaadin will be finish very soon. Then, I will take a break to complete the graduation and enjoy the college life. Because, sab kuch zaruri hai aur college life to bas ek hi baar enjoy kar sakte hai."He giggled.

"Wow.. that will be really great."Girls happily said while looking at each other. One of them asked with a little giggle, "Okay, I always asked you in your dms, live chats but you always ignored that question. Are you dating someone ?"

He blushed, "I am so sorry for not replying to that question. I am not dating anyone, but I don't mind dating you."

The girl started blushing very hard. Other girls widened their mouths and hooted a little.

As soon as, Sumedh and Abhishek entered in the staffroom, a teacher came to them with her lunch box. They stopped and gave a forced and small smile to her.

"Hello Sumedh sir.. Hello Abhishek sir."The teacher smiled.

"Hello Richa mam."They smiled a little.

"Sir, I made laddu at home. Please try some."She smiled widely and extended the lunch box towards Sumedh.

Sumedh looked at the box and then looked at her and giggled nervously, "Ahmm.. thank you mam. You have it."

"Thoda sa taste kar lijea na sir. Itni mehnat se bnaya hai.. thoda sa khayengge to aapki diet kharab nhi ho jayegi."She pouted sweetly, "Please."

"Ahm."Sumedh licked his lips to think of an answer and then lied with a giggle, "I would love to taste these sweets mam. But.. Today, I have fast. Main kuch kha nhi sakta. Only water."

"Oh !"Her smile vanished within a second. Abhishek covered his mouth and started giggling. "Okay sir."He was about to walk towards his seat, but he stopped when she asked, "Sir, I wanted to ask you something."He looked at her and waited for her to complete the line, "If you, I mean both of you are free this weekend, then can we all go to watch a movie ? All of us."

Sumedh looked at Abhishek and then again looked at her. Richa used to teach electronic subjects to students of first and second year. She wanted to date Sumedh since a long time, and many times gave indirect hints to him. He always behaved like an idiot in front of her and showed like he didn't notice anything.

"I.. am.. sorry.. mam. I might not be free on weekends. New batch has already come. So, I will be busy in preparing notes for them."He tried to manage a smile, "I have some work. I will talk to you later."

He didn't wait and went to his place. Abhishek smiled at her and went behind Sumedh without picking up the sweet. Sumedh kept his bag on the table and let out a sigh of relief after sitting on the chair. Abhishek kept his stuffs in the locker and gestured Sumedh to come. He stood up and looked at Richa for once before leaving the staffroom.

"Kab chodegi yaar ye peecha ?"Sumedh irritatedly asked, "Indirectly, itnein hints to de chuka hu.. that I am not interested in all these things.. atleast with her."

"Sacha pyaar karti hai."He chuckled. Sumedh looked at him with a poker face, "Sorry sorry. Mere dimaag mein ek baat aayi. Agar wahi tere sapno wali ladki nikli to ?"

"Baccho nein bahut pareshan kiya kya ? Dimaag kharab ho gya hai tera ?"Sumedh asked more irritatedly.

Abhishek giggled, "Are nhi nhi. Meri baat samhj. Dekh sapnein wali ki shakal to theek se dekhi nhi hai tune, aur na jaane kab dikhegi. Dhundna to hai na use ?"Sumedh hummed, and Abhishek continued, "To baat karke jaan nein mein kya problem hai ? Aaj tak kaam ke alawa to koi baat nhi kari hai tune usse. Ek baar baat karke dekh.. kya pta wahi ho. Kayi baar humara pyaar humare aas paas hi hota hai, par hume dikhta nhi hai."

Ruhi entered in the room and smiled at her roommate. Both of them were of same year, but different courses. They quickly became friends. Ruhi was very jolly, that's why, people felt attraction towards her.

Both of them went to the mess and met with other girls. Himani also came to the mess at the same time and looked at everyone for once. She picked up a plate, served food for herself and went back to her room without meeting anyone.

Himani went to the room, finished her food quietly and then sat on the bed. She looked out of the window for few seconds and then picked up her laptop and started typing something.

Sumedh and Abhishek went back to the staffroom when the lunch break ended. Abhishek nudged Sumedh and then pointed at Richa. He made a face, but then went to her.

"Hello Richa mam."Sumedh nervously said.

"Hello sir. How are you ?"She stood up and smiled widely.

"Same as when the lunch break started."He answered casually. But, her smile lessened within a second, as she felt bad because of the way of answer. He noticed her expressions and immediately said, "No no, I meant. I am good as always. Actually, I just wanted to say that I checked my timetable, and I think I will be free this weekend. But, I am not in a mood of watching any movie. Why don't we go for lunch... you.. and.. me ?"

Instantly, she asked with a huge smile, "Are you asking me for a date ?"

"I guess, yes. Kind of."He nervously giggled, but then immediately blurted with a smile, "But, if you already made plans with your friends... then that's totally okay. Trust me, I will feel bad that we can't go out. But, I will understand your problem and will handle myself. I promise, I will not cry."

"I am free."She answered happily, "I am always free for you."

Sumedh's smile lessened a bit, but he managed to say after hiding his worried expressions, "I... will.. pick.. you.. up.. at 1 on saturday then."
