~Past Scenario~

My heart sink interpreting his words... I stammered speaking...
''r..i..s..h..u.. I..''

What should I say his confession made me speechless... I am feeling like on cloud nine.. Every single moment of our togetherness played in my mind... Specially day before incident reminding that almost kiss and hug rejoiced my heart... With him everything feels special all new... I want him to be near me like this always and forever... Ceasing my memory train my eyes set on him... Rishu is looking down I think he is scared and waiting for me to say something... Making up my mind and heart I declared my feelings!!!

''I like you too rishu!!''

I smile shyly when his head shot up gazing at me before we can say something someone walked in classroom I turn to doorway and who else it can be?

''hey good morning to both of you!!!''

Jay greeted us with cheeky smile rishu rolled his eyes murmuring...

''Great timing buddy...''

I giggle looking at his expression... Jay stood before my bench staring one time at me then at rishu...

''what is going on here??''

He questioned I felt embarrass what he might be thinking about us... Rishu stood up from my side and drag jay with him to their place saying...

''nothing bro!!!''

I laugh this time knowing how pissed off he sounds... Some mins later everyone came but Bella didn't I felt very sad I have to be all alone today... Class started as Ma'am entered its science class she took attendance than begin to explain chapter...

One by one 4 lectures passed away.. I sat alone feeling bored but in between I kept glancing at rishu whenever our eyes met he would smile widely and that dumbo Jay would give suspicious looks... At break time I didn't went to canteen as I don't like to go there alone it feels awkward also I didn't brought lunch box today how stupid of me to avoid rishu I walk out from home early without even drinking milk now my tummy is growling...

I take out my books than started on today's homework sitting idly is not killing time... I keep writing and was so much engross that didn't acknowledged when rishu came in settling beside scared me...

''why you not having lunch??''

''I forget to bring it...''

''so come to canteen aren't you hungry??''

''I don't go canteen alone!!!''

I spoke softly without a word he walked out from class shocking me... He got angry with me?? But what I did now?? If I don't like so why should I go only??? Let it be huhhh...

''here eat this!!''

Rishu order placing chips packet on bench... I smiled looking at him and took the packet tearing it spoke...

''Thank you!!!''

''no need for it you should have informed me about this...''

''sorry it didn't came into my mind...''

I said truly... He sat back on my bench as I begin munching wafers was damn hungry... Bit later I realised didn't offered him so I put packet before him eyeing him to eat... He took some of chips shoving them in his mouth till than I kept gazing at him...

Than I completed eating in silent I offered him again but he refused so I ate it alone... Rishu rested his head on his hand which is on bench smiling mischievously he asked...

''so you like me too??''

I shudder in shy just simply nodded my head in yes than again silent wave between us... To kill it I ask him...

''where is jay??''

''in canteen drooling at ria!!!''

''ohh!! He told you about her??''

''yes... Whole day he plays only one cassette that is ria!!! His every talk starts from her and end on her!!!''

I giggle the way rishu said... Jay is like this only... He really loves ria though she is our senior!!! He was behind her from 7th class than finally he proposed her in ending year of 8th class to his luck ria said yes from than they both are together!!! Ria is really sweet but she get an attitude problem which I don't like I never encounter it but witness it with others...

''so rishu he bores you always??''

''yeah at some extent but he is good friend too so I don't complain!!''

How sweet of him that he tolerates jay as I know Jay better in 8th class he made me go crazy yaar with his boring and never ending praises for ria...

''ohh you two alone again!!''

Jay march in class shouting at peak talk about devil and here he is I shook my head in disbelief... He walk near to me as from doorway my side comes first... Standing before me he spoke...

''move in...''

What?? is he gone mad?? It's two sitter bench and me rishu already sitting on it now he too want to sit here... I didn't move so he order again...

''what??? Move in na madhu I want to sit here...''

I shifted in and he sat at my other side... It felt so uncomfortable I m sitting between two boys... Trying not to be near Jay shifted opposite to be in touch with rishu... He didn't move back and I felt bit comfortable more near to him...

''so tell me what's going on between you two???''

Jay asked stating at both of us... But we both kept mum... I m just praying no one should walk in yaar what they will think about me... I turn to rishu's side with pleading eyes hope he get what I mean...

''Jay stand back...''

He order him in serious tone and I relax he got me...

''no! first you both tell me what's going on between you than only I will stand from here!!!''

''Jay it's not joke stand up break is going to over someone might walk in...''

This time rishu's voice was more serious so Jay stood up and I showed him tongue...

''tiny winy...''

He tease me with this stupid name given by him only... I hate him when he calls me this... Me too did same!!!

''color...''

And again showed him tongue...

'' stop it tiny winy you look more ugly while doing this!!!''

I gawk at his statement than shout at him...

''how dare you call me ugly??? You are an idiot lover!!!''

''don't drag my love in between this madhu!!!''

''I will you color and your girlfriend double color!!!''

I spat back as he got annoyed I smirk in victory... But his nxt move made me more angry... He pulled my hair so harshly!!!

''ouchh!!! Jay you stupid... Idiot... It hurts...''

''I know!!!''

Before I can do something he ran out of class!!! I sat back on bench irritated... What rishu was doing while this stupid fight was going on? I turn and my eyes devour his amusing smile...

''you look more cute with such expression!!!''

Saying so he pulls my cheek and walk to his place making me numb by his action...

Thinking about studies I tense about rishu how will he give these tests? It's just week he joined school and he have to give exam I turn to look at him with sadness but he is looking so cool and wink at me seriously this boy always make me feel shy...

After school I make my way to home for some mins I waited for rishu but didn't found him so thought to head back alone...

Coming before house I waited for traffic to get clear so I can cross roads!!! Ok 1 min..2 mins... 5 mins... 10 mins... 15 mins... This is not fair yaar why everyone have to ride when I have to cross-road...

From nowhere my hand entangle with someone's hand next moment I was drag on road my head snap to know who is owner... And my eyes met with rishu... I ran with him crossing road my eyes stop at our entangled hands than I gaze at him... I mumble...

''My saviour from every bad situation!!!''
