Aditi's point of view

"Aditi wake up..."

...

"Wake up girl..."

Someone is shaking my shoulder but I jerked off the hand and went back to my sleep.

"Tripathi uth.."
(Tripathi wake up.)

By the voice, I know it's my annoying friend.

"Divya Please let me sleep for more five minutes." I said in my sleep while turning my head to the other side.

"Our chemistry teacher is coming to our side. Wake up now or be ready for the punishment." Divya whispered in my ear and manage to wake me up.

This was first day of our school and I am all sleepy. I don't like chemistry a bit. It's all confusing and went everything over my head so usually I dozed off in chemistry class. Many time our chemistry sir caught me sleeping in his class. He gave me punishment and even throw me out of the class, sometimes but I can't stop myself sleeping in his class.

Divya is my savior. Now I learned how to avoid the punishments. I told Divya to alert me about teacher, before dozing off.

I take off my head from bench and look at my chemistry book blankly.

I turn my head to look at Divya who is laughing looking at my expressions.

"Don't laugh...you know it's boring." I said with frown.

"No..I love the subject." Divya said while looking at our chemistry sir with dreamy eyes.

Our chemistry sir is well built and handsome too. He is in his late twenties. Many female teachers have a crush on him, including my crazy friend. But alas! He is engaged and have a beautiful fiance.

"Don't you think your too young to have a crush on our chemistry teacher." I said.

"Age is just a number and love doesn't see the age." Divya said while looking at our chemistry teacher adoringly who is reading a method god knows what solution.

"He has a fiance." I said with a matter of fact. I don't want my friend to go nuts for our chemistry teacher.

"I don't care." She rested her hand on the bench and rest her chin on her hand.

"You are crazy."

"In his love." She sighed while dropping her both shoulders. She had a dreamy smile on her face when she said that. I shake my head and chuckled on her craziness.

Finally alarm rang indicating that the lecture is over and it's time for lunch.

Divya and I took our bags and walked towards the canteen. But I get confused when Divya started walking towards the playground.

"Today, Dhruv bhaiya will join us for lunch." She said while reading mh confusion.

"But he never had his lunch in school? In Fact he never eat food in school." I said looking at her confusingly.

"How do you know that?" Divya asked me with more confusion.

Because I love with your brother and never leave a chance to see him.

Shit! She doesn't know about that I love her brother and will never tell because I don't want to ruin our friendship.

"Anyways leave that. Today he skipped his breakfast So Mom gave me extra lunch for Dhruv bhaiya."

Thank God she didn't drag the topic that how did I know Dhruv ate his lunch in school or not.

We both went to the playground and my eyes immediately started searching for him and there he is playing basketball with his team.

I get lost in his beauty and my eyes stuck on him. Sweat drops were dripping from his hair and he was defending the basketball from opposite team member. Girls from his ckass and juniors from him, ogling him shamelessly. I am also one of them. He doesn't know how much he is popular between the girls.

Crowd cheered him up and clapped for him he put the ball in the basket. I also wanted to clap for him but I don't want get Divya suspicious.

Divya and I sit on the bench under the shade of tree and waited for his game to finish.

Divya was talking to other girl but my whole focus was on my love who is playing his game without knowing that someone is watching him and admiring him from afar. But suddenly, I don't know when, he turns and his eyes met with mine. Pink colour crept on my cheeks and I feel my cheeks heated up under his gaze.

Why is he looking at me?

Is he know that I was watching him?

Is he also wants to see me?

Our gaze locked for the second before his eyes fell on Divya beside me. I fell embarrassed and lowered my head when I realized, he was looking for Divya not me.

Why would he look at me? Maybe I was just another girl in the crowd, for him.

He again resumed in game when he noticed our place.

"Hii, Divya.." My chain of thoughts broke by the peachy voice of Nisha. I can recognized her voice from the far end of the playground. She make a disgusting face looking at me like my presence poisoning her.

She was with her two minions Himani and Bhavna. Himani and Bhavna is from our class while Nisha is our senior. She is also in 12th standard and one of girl fan of Dhruv like me.

But I am not like others. Other girls maybe had a crush on him. They like his physical beauty but I am in love with him and love every single thing about him. Nisha is chasing after Dhruv when step in the school. She flirted with him a lot and try to get his attention but every time he ignores her.

Poor her...

"Hii..Nisha Di." Divya said in a boring tone. It's not hide from Divya how mean Nisha and her friends is. Nisha comes to Divya when she need something from him and be polite with her because she is Dhruv's sister but everyone knows how mean bitch she is.

"You know Divya, you are like my little sister. I heard you are weak in maths. Don't worry I will come to your home this Sunday and teach you."

She had compartment in maths when she was in 10th class and as far as I know she is a commerce student. She had a bad condition in accounts and had a bad record in Maths then how she will going to teach maths to Divya. Plus Divya is way batter than her in Maths. I know why she wants to come her home, so that she can get close to Dhruv.

Divya looked at me with pleading to save her.

"Divya and I are going to the market this Sunday and her parents arranged the Maths tutor for her." I said politely to Nisha.

Well what I said is partially true. We are not going to the market but last week Anuradha aunty, Divya's mother asked me to teach Divya Maths because I am good in Maths and always score highest marks in class. So basically I am the Maths tutor of Divya.

"Yeah, Aditi is right, we are going to the market this Sunday and for Maths I have tutor.  But thanks for your help." Divya said.

"Divya, you should spend your time with who matches your standards and this girl doesn't even have any standards. Bloody low class people." She muttered the last part under her breath but I heard it and damn it's hurt like a bitch. Himani and Bhavna was smirking at me.

How dare she said like this about me. I might be look some simple girl to others but I became fierce when someone tried to mess with me.

I was about to protest and give her peace of my mind but before I could say anything Divya jumped between us.

"Don't tell her what's  her standards are because whole school knows what are your standards." Divya said through her greeted teeth while glaring at her.

"..and don't you dare to say anything against to best my friend. About the standards Aditi is rich from her heart and pretty much belongs to my standards."

If Divya were a boy, I instantly bend down on my one knee and asked her to marry me.

She is truly my best friend. I love you Divya but not more than your brother ofcourse.

"I won't leave you." Nisha glared at me and leave from there with her friends.

I turn to Divya and looked at Divya while batting my eyelashes.

"Don't look at me like that like you want to propose me. I am straight.  Find someone else." Divya said while rolling  her eyes on me.

"But still I love you." I said while hugging her and she hugged me back.

We both again sit on the bench and wait for Dhruv to end his game.

****

Game finished after five minutes and Dhruv started walking towards us with his all glory. Because of sun his whit shirt was dripping in sweat but instead of all of this he was looking handsome. Rolled up sleeves, half tugging shirt, loosely hanging tie and upper two buttons were undone. He was looking hot and a bad boy too. No wonder why today is hotter than other days.

"Sorry for the delay. Today games get longer than anticipated." Dhruv said after approaching us.

Divya asked him something but I didn't hear because I was too busy to calm my racing heart. Though I wasn't looking at him but still the feeling of him standing in front of me making my heart go crazy.

"Do you have water?" I raised my head and looked at him when his voice reached to me. His black deep eyes were looking at me for the answer.

I nodded my head as yes. I take out the water bottle from my backpack and gave it to him. He took the bottle from me and drunk the whole water in one go. His adam's apple moved up and down when he was gulping the water. Some water drops were sliding down from his neck and it looks very sexy actually.

"Thanks..I will give you back the bottle after filling it." He said while looking at me.

"Don't worry..I will do that myself." I said while taking the bottle from him and put it back in my backpack.

"You guys go to the canteen. I will join you after five minutes." His next move shocked me completely. He took the dupatta of my school dress and wipe off his mouth and sweat from his face. After saying that he leave after that like nothing happens. After giving me a shock he leave from there like nothing happened.

I don't know if he does that deliberately or unknowingly but I was shocked and my cheeks are turned into beetroot shade.

"I am sorry for your dupatta. He ruined it. He always wipe off his hands and face whatever comes in his hand. Curtains and Mom's saree pallu is his most favorite.  He does that alot in home and Mom always scolded him for that but he never listen to her. You wash it after going home." Divya said apologetically but hell girl..I am not going to wash this ever.

"No, it's okey. It just a water stain." I managed to say. We both took our bags and started walking towards the canteen.

"Why are you blushing by the way?"  Divya asked me confusingly. But I don't want to tell her that your brother is the reason of my red blushing cheeks.

"Maybe because of sun." I said without looking at her.

******

I and Divya grabbed the table near the window in the canteen and wait for Dhruv to join us.

Cafeteria is fill with students and some of school teachers. After five minutes Dhruv also joined us and looking all freshen up like a he was looking in morning. He pulled the chair and set beside Divya.

I ignore to look at him because of his earlier stunt. It still gave me chills of thinking that he wiped his face and mouth with my dupatta.

Is he aware what he does before?

My poor heart got all excited.

I pushed away my feelings and opened my lunch box. Divya's face lighten up when she looked at my lunch.

Today I have potato curry and puri. I always bring extra lunch with me because of Divya. She is a big foody and like what I made. So yeah, she gets excited whatever I cooked.

I looked at Dhruv and he was eating the veg sandwich silently.

He must be hungry, then why he just eating sandwich.

I forwards my lunch box to him and red colour crept on my cheeks when his eyes met with mine.

"You can have my lunch. You must be hungry after the tiring game." I immediately looked down when I saw he was looking at me with unknown emotions.

"Thankyou.." He muttered underneath his breath and took my lunch. Divya gave me the sandwich and started eating my lunch with Dhruv.

"Aadi you didn't made macaroni for me this week." Divya asked me while eating.

I frowned when she asked me. Yesterday I had sent macaroni for her.

"But I se..." I stopped in mid sentence when something hits my mind. I looked at Dhruv and he was looking at me while eating the salad.

He must eat all macaroni to himself and didn't tell to Divya.

"Don't worry. I'll make it today." I said and then looked at at Dhruv. He was eating salad while looking down but his lips curled into a smile. I also looked down and grin.

"You guys continue. I am done." He wiped his hands with tissue paper and leave. But I was grinning myself thinking about my handsome neighbor who betrayed her sister and eat her favorite food to himself. I looked at Divya and she was looking at me confusingly.

"You Okay...?" she asked while knitted her eyebrows together.

"More than okay."
