"You wanted to say something." I knew why she was here, but I pretended to be surprised. Despite her intelligence and beauty, she seemed nervous. Her eyes darted around the room as if she were afraid to be overheard. "What is it?" I asked, urging her on. I studied her face, searching for clues. Her usual playful demeanor was replaced by a seriousness that intrigued me. "You've been avoiding me," I stated flatly. She hesitated, her eyes wide. "Hmm," she mused, "something really important." I nodded encouragingly. Her words were like a bomb going off in my head. My world tilted on its axis as she tried to explain the shocking truth. I was so stunned, her explanation was a blur. --------------------- "You're hot, you know" "I know." He said nodding in amusement and continued again eyeing me "But I didn't know that you can be this bold too." "I know." I said making both of us chuckle. I slowly came more near him and held his hands and placed my head on his shoulder. He smiled seeing this. I continued the conversation saying "We're equal now." He chuckled again and a comfortable silence took place between us. Out of nowhere I just wished to kiss him on his cheeks and did so. He was shocked for a second but again composed himself and arched his eyebrow on me while a small smirk playing on his lips. "Eager enough?" He said making me blush. "I don't want anymore dirty stuff with you." I said without seeing him in his eyes because I knew I will fuck up if I see him right now. "Yeah? Well, that is where I'm talented much more than this world knows." He said chucking. "So cocky you are." I said looking in his eyes with a bad face. "We know that babe." He said shifting his gaze from me to down of him. And when I understood what he meant, I shifted away from him making him laugh. "Go away. You're so bad. Don't touch me. Go. Shoo." I said, slapping his hands. #5 amendment on 7 June, 2024 #383 forever on 31 August, 2024 #104 Indian story on 2 August, 2024
