Why?

"Hey hypothetical boyfriend!" Serene called for Soham when he didn't reply to her 'Not to blame himself' speech! She waved her hand in front of his face to get his senses back twice or thrice.

Soham shook his head slightly to get back on earth. The shock he just gave himself was too big for him to digest. 

He smiled slightly at her so that she could continue. He was so messed up that he didn't notice but he kept staring at her continuously. 

Serene noticed his gaze on her, but she couldn't understand the meaning of it. She felt strange or odd because it's the first time she couldn't understand the meaning of someone's gaze. But at the least she know one thing sure that, it's not malice or dangerous for her.

When she noticed no outcome of him stopping himself from this starring competition. She halted her step and stood in front of him. Soham unknowingly also stopped but didn't stop looking at her. Finally Serene couldn't control and slightly slapped her arm. 

"What! Why are you looking at me?" 

He widened his eyes with the realisation that what he was doing all this time. He looked to the side path to hide his embarrass. "I... I... don't know."

He actually doesn't understand himself now. He doesn't understand what he is doing? Why is he doing all this for a girl? Leaving his friends, leaving his company important affairs, lying to his friends, rubber things to do useless assignments, and all this just to spend time with her? Why?

Earlier he ignored all this unusual behaviour of his, thinking it just a guilt of what she suffered. But now knowing that she didn't care about those articles, and she don't even blame him, he finds it more sad for himself. Where will he find more reasons to be with her? 

And now above all this why is he trying to possess over her? Saying she is his and all? Why?

Does he!? No it can't be!

Serene also didn't stretched out the matter anymore and get back to her motive for now that is to eat. 'She is hungry man!'

"So you were never wrong and I accused you wrongly. I am sorry. You know what, I actually thought that you will never do these cheap things by seeing your morale but when all that happened and everyone said it was you, I also agreed just by your guilty face. And by the thought that you are taking revenge on me because of that kiss." She said nonchalantly. She didn't mind that kiss anymore, because she don't consider it lossing her first kiss.

He got stiff by her comment. Just remembering that moment when his first kiss was actually accidental with her.

He smiled slightly to her and said "Thanks for trusting me that much even then." He felt better by the thought that she trusted his morale even when they didn't know each other.

"Of course I do. Let's go. I am starving. Let's grab something." She said and went towards the cafeteria. 

"You are starving already? There's still two hour left for dinner."

"Yeah but I haven't had breakfast or lunch since morning. I can't hold any more." She was almost running towards the cafeteria like a starving ghost.

"Why didn't you have anything yet!" He angrily said. Having nothing since morning moreover playing with kids all day out on the field, what was she even thinking? She wanna faint?

"Can't help but my brother is not at home. And I don't know how to cook at all. So..." Even at the orphanage, the chores she did were all related to cleaning. And since she is out of that hell, Harry always feeds her with his hand, let alone letting her do anything related to kitchen stuff.

"You!" Nothing to argue. He wanted to say that she could have bought one, but knowing that she was in a hurry to come, it's understandable if someone forgot her breakfast. But lunch too!

They were going upstairs when other kids saw Serene and ran towards her.  "Sister!" 

They all almost jumped on her.

She took a step back to stop them, but she got no time. "Hey wait.... No wait... AAA ouchh" She loudly winced in pain. Because of kids hug, her back bone bent backward and 'it hurts man!'
