Atlast bell rang signaling the end the class. That was the thing I wanted to hear so badly as of now. Abhi went away thanking the class. Akshati got up from her desk & stood near me. I acted like I didn’t see her & showed like im busy with copying notes from nikhil’s notebook.

“Bitch! Don’t act like you didn’t see me” akshati snapped. 

“What do you want?” I asked in a fed up tone.

“Come with me. Right now” akshati ordered.

“Uffffff” sighing I woke up & sat next to her.

“I was calling you continuously. Why didn’t you take?” akshati asked curiously.

“Call? You?” I hysterically laughed wanted to be sounding sarcastically.

“Give me your phone” she snatched the phone from me & showed me the 17 missed calls.

Ooops!! Fault is mine. Phone was in silent. I didn’t notice. She really tried to call me & inform me about the class.

“Pragya! Do you really want to talk about abhi being our professor & the shock we got?” akshati asked with a concern.

“Not really!” I replied shaking my head.  Im still processing the things which happened the last few days. How I met him & how it ended in a tragedy now. I sighed. Akshati patted my back with love. She’s too understanding. She’s the only one im having now. Even bhai doesn’t care about me.

At the lunch break.
Pragya’s view:

I gone to the canteen with akshati. I saw abhi sitting all alone in a table. It’s his first day. Didn’t he get any teacher friends to sit with? I wondered. First I thought of giving him a company. Then I know it’s not right plus he don’t deserve it. I took my food & sat with akshati. Feeling someone’s eyes on my back I turned around. At the next table Nikhil was sitting with his friends. When I looked at him he threw a smile. I returned the smile awkwardly. Akshati noticed this.

“he’s becoming so annoying. Isn’t it ?” akshati asked knowing he’s obviously becoming a problem. “you know you made his behaviour worst by sitting with him. Now he will sit on your head” she snorted.

I sighed realising akshati is right. But that was the only desk which was empty this morning except my usual spot with akshati. We ate the rest of the food in silence. I again felt eyes on my back. I didn’t turn this time. We woke after finishing the lunch & threw a one last glance at abhi only to know he was already staring at me. It sent a shock pulse into my veins as well as im surprised. Was he attracted towards me or it’s just a concern because im his friend’s sister & he obviously seems to be noticed Nikhil's staring contest. I didn’t want to ponder my thoughts on it. Me & akshati left for the classroom.
Rest of the classes was as usual. All teachers I know before itself. So it wasn’t problematic like Abhi’s one. After the last bell rang everyone happily took their bags & one by one left the classroom. Except me & Akshati.

“Akshati it’s seriously okay. I will manage. You’ve to take bus na? You go” I tried to convince her. She was stubborn saying she will stay with me for my detention. She doesn’t want to leave me alone.

“Im taking bus & you? Going by walk or what? Shut up please” she retorted.

“Akshati I will go by cab today. Promise. You go. I will take care of me” she has something coming up in her home. I don’t want her to waste time on me. She should go & catch it up.

Akshati got convinced now & she dropped me on the doors of Mr. Mehra’s room.

“Bye Pragya”

“Bye”
.
I softly knocked the door. He opened the door letting me in. I took a long breath before entering. I entered inside with a little hesitation. It was very awkward. It’s just him & me. He asked me to sit pointing out a chair. There was 2 chair & a table. He sat on one, crossing his hands intently looking at me. I was just awkwardly looking everywhere but him.

He initiated the convo. “as I already know you didn’t paid any heed to my today’s class let me teach you again” he declared.

I gasped loudly. Again fucking history. Please I can’t anymore. I stood up.

“Look Abhishek I’ve no interest in your history class. If you want to give me fail marks go ahead. I just can’t tolerate you more. You’re literally everywhere. It’s just so annoying. Look it’s more enough that I’m tolerating your presence at home” I continued ranting. He didn’t utter a single word. Did I hurt him? What come over me? Why did I ranted as such? I don’t know. Im equally hurted. It was all his fault. Why the fuck he came into my life? He’s fucking everywhere. I don’t want to see him ever! EVER!
I took my bag & left for home.
.
At pragya’s home:

She opened the door with her key. After venting out on Abhishek she felt a lot better now. She wanted a coffee now. She made herself a coffee then texted Akshati saying she reached home. Then she heard someone pressing the door bell. She went to see. A courier guy was standing with a parcel. She received it & opened to see a mattress. She was relieved honestly. It might be purab who ordered it. She took it to her room. Spreaded it on the floor. And when she hit it she dozed off instantly. Because she hadn’t slept an ounce yesterday. She needed it. She woke up around 9 at night. She went to see whether there’s something cooked or brought by her bhai. Bhai wasn’t home. She searched all over. But his office bag was on living room sofa. She took her phone & called. Purab answered.

“Pragya!” his voice filled with restlessness.

“bhai you okay???” she was getting impatient & panic started to set in.

“Im fine pragya" purab answered without a second thought & that’s what all pragya wanted to hear as of now. He continued “pragya did abhi come home? First answer this”.

“No bhai. Im all alone in our home. What happened? Did he ditched you?” I asked disinterestedly.

“abhi…abhi.. don’t know where he went. His phone coming switch off. Im searching for him pragya on some common friend’s houses. Im worried. If he comes home please inform me. I will call you back later” saying this he cut the call.

After hearing this something knotted on her stomach. Her mind discombobulated. She felt something quiver inside her soul. Her body was getting soaked because of extreme sweat. Suddenly she felt guilt for taking out everything on him. He went away because of her? Is he really went away or something happened to him while coming back? After the last thought struck her she felt pain on her chest. Why her body reacting as such for a man she barely know. She couldn’t answer. She aimlessly pulled herself for a walk. She was walking on the backside of her apartment. There was a park there. She saw someone sitting on the bench all alone. She decided to check. She went inside. When she neared him she realised it was too dark. But she know it’s him. Her gut feeling said.

“Abhi” she called him softly.

“Pragya” Abhi immediately recognised the voice. He Couldn’t process why she’s here in this dark night.

“abhi are you okay?” pragya asked with a concern reflecting in her voice. Without waiting for his answer she neared him. Touched him. Cupped his face & hugged him tightly. Abhi stood there still.
