What is stopping us?

... this feeling is?

I'm in science class and I hate it so much I'm so glad I already got over this era of my life. I couldn't stop thinking about why Maya had called Rahul she's troubled him enough like why can't she just leave him alone. I guess it's not just that but also because Rahul loved her and what if he falls in love with her again? I won't be able to tell him how I feel.. "Meera!" Huh wait what? I really have to stop zoning out. It was Murat. "Oh hey" "hi meera your sitting in my seat again." "Omg I'm so sorry again.. I don't know why I keep doing this." "Don't worry it's fine." "Hey uhh you didn't go to the rest of the classes yesterday are you ok?" "Oh so now your stalking me?" "What no! Of course not it's just that I guess the teachers saw us talking and they asked me if you were here." Damn it this is obviously a lie but- you know what I really shouldn't get involved in his life plus he just talked to me once. " I'm just kidding meera i had a family emergency and I couldn't attend." "Oh well I hope your family is ok." "Thank you they are they just got into a crash but it only left a small scratch in my car." "Oh ok"

Rahul
Hey are you in class?

Yes Rahul what do you want I'm not supposed to have my phone out

Oh ok but I have a question do you remember what Mr.Rodger said to look out for?

Yeah he said a black Honda with a scratch on it

Oh ok thank you meera now get back to studying 😝

🙄

"Hey uh you Do know we aren't supposed to use our phones right?" "Oh right I'm sorry it's just that you know friends" class was over and we were able to leave school early. "Hey wanna go out for lunch?" Did he just ask me to go out to lunch with him? Omg! But what about Rahul? He always comes late so might as well go with Murat "oh sure" "ok come on hop in" "this is really nice car what type is it?" "Oh it's a Honda." "Oh what happened to the sides?" "I told you that my family got in a crash and well they were using my car when they had the incident." This car was very weird I had a bad vibe about it. "So Meera was your boyfriend texting you?" "What? No! He's my friend Rah- I mean Raj." "Oh for a second I thought you had a boyfriend." "Who me with a boyfriend? Haha Dont make me laugh." "Well I mean why wouldn't you have one you have a nice personality, you know how to speak English very well, and plus your very beautiful" he was looking in my eyes as if he can read them what was this feeling? I never felt this with Rahul not even with my ex boyfriend but I don't know what I should do. "So where are you from Murat ?" I hope he doesn't notice that I changed the conversation.. "oh well I'm from New Delhi but I moved here when I was 17 with my sister." "Oh that's nice" there was awkward silence and I looked out the window and saw Rahul with Maya? What was he doing? Is he out of his mind? How can he just go out with her knowing that he can't even get close to her or else we are so dead and we could even get kicked out from the FBI. If Mr.Rodger finds out I'm a dead duck, and so is Rahul. I can't even stand looking at her. She's so beautiful and has such an innocent face but in reality she's the devil. I just tolerated her because of Rahul but I do not want her to get close to him. Rahul and Maya were walking towards the cafe where Murat and I were in I really hope they didn't come in or else I'm dead and he's also dead. I tried hiding under table so that Rahul won't see me through the window. "Hey uhh are you okay? Do u need help." "What no, no thank you Murat it's just that I dropped the ketchup pack." I got back up and didn't see them anymore. I was relieved and went back to talking with Murat until I heard the doorbells ring it was Rahul and Maya. Maya had seen me but not Rahul and she came up to us. "Oh wow Meera what are you doing here?" Rahul looked at me straight in the eyes I could see that he was kinda mad. But that didn't stop me I looked straight at his eyes and he could definitely see that mine were full with anger .

Maya and rahuls story will come later on
