Date 7

I had immediately stopped talking to Vaiwav and blocked him from everywhere. Thankfully it classes was also about to end so I just had to face him for a couple of classes and was not seating next to him. My friends West were very keen to know what really happened but definitely, I was in no mood to spoil out the secret so I told them that we are not on talking terms. I swear it was the most awkward time of my life and I hope to never see him again and those classes with him in it was becoming unbearable. So I saw fit like 3-4 classes after which I don't know how to put this he completely vanished, he didn't come for any extra classes or prepared with us for the situation test and honestly I was relieved by curious at the same time. Also, I was thinking whether he has deleted the video it is it still in one of his folders and what if some other person gets hold of his phone, all these thoughts were haunting me but the less I saw of him the less I was bothered. I had few sleepless nights thinking what if it gets circulated and stuff but now after a month, I had more confidence that it won't. I also tried stalking his profile to know whether he is still in Kolkata or not but there were no updates. And anyways my entrance exam was very close do I was focusing more and trying not to put any such thoughts into all these. The entrance exam went alright but I could have done better if I had taken upon myself all that unnecessary distraction and more I was repenting those mistakes taken in course of my hormones. I waiting for the results but honestly, at the same time, the fear of my video being circulated was not completely gone. The results came out and though I got into NIFT, I didn't get the centre I was aiming for which kind of made me sad. The place I got into was not so great but the college there was amazing with great facilities and teachings but obviously, I didn't realise it then and thinking about how I could get into NIFT Mumbai instead of Chennai. My classes were about to start I had to go to Chennai and I was not that happy. The convocation started and I was really sad because of my homesickness and didn't feel like attending but still went and was mostly hiding myself sitting at one corner of the Auditorium with my Dad.

Given my experiences in terms of dating life, I was completely sure College is going to be one hell of a wild ride and hence I needed not to stay in a Hostel especially the one inside my campus because that is going to be super strict. So I and my Dad were generally looking for Apartments and PG where I can stay but truly I was so disappointed to not find one good place near my College. My Dad was leaving the third day and he needed to find a place for me to stay so we had no option but to go to my College Girls Hostel. Thankfully there were rooms available and My Dad had a conversation with both the Hostel-in-charge and the Director so I got a room and I was even sadder. Then we bought items that were needed for Hostel as well as for my first year and since my Dad was not allowed inside, I had to manage all my belongings by myself. I tried arranging my room a little and the room was meant to be shared by three people but since none of my soon to be roommates was here, I took the best corner. The classes were about to start on Monday and I am supposed to spend the next two days all alone sulking in my room because my Dad was leaving today. When I started taking a closer look most of the girls had already made friends and now I was on the waiting list which kind of sucked and everyone was hanging out. I chilled with my dad after getting my room done and then he was giving me some advice and I was really sad, I definitely didn't want him to go or maybe take me back but definitely, that wouldn't be the case.

When I started taking a closer look most of the girls had already made friends and now I was on the waiting list which kind of sucked and everyone was hanging out. I chilled with my dad after getting my room done and then he was giving me some advice and I was really sad, I didn't want him to go or maybe take me back but definitely, that wouldn't be the case. I was almost on the verge of crying and felt like a girl who has just been married off to an unknown world all alone leaving my parents behind. That feeling was the worst, almost impossible to make peace with. I already had dinner with my Dad and I went straight to my room. The only good thing about that hostel was the amazing wifi and I was so pumped up because a new life was going to start and I had to make the best of it. Technically I have been waiting for this my whole life but I was not that happy and felt a little empty inside maybe because I didn't get my preferred city but I have to find a way to get there. I decided that every day I will work a little for something towards my Goal but right now the one thing annoying me is how I am so alone in my room and need someone so that I can peacefully sleep. So I went to the next room and knocked on it and a girl opened it. I introduced myself and asked her if she had a roommate or not. She told me she has one but she is not here and I asked her whether she would like to sleep in my room tonight. She seemed okay with the idea and I helped her with the bedding and we shifted it to my room and after like an hour her roommate came to my room asking about her whereabouts and I told her she would be sleeping with me tonight and she told me that even she is alone in her room but since we had already shifted her bedding and that was kind of mean from my side but I didn't care. I slept early and woke up around 9 in the morning to find out that Pooja, the girl who slept in my room, has some work and she will leave. I had no idea what I would do all alone and that feeling of waking up all to myself is the worst feeling ever. I don't like being in that position where everything seems sad and depressing.

Since we had a common washroom I had to go there for even brushing. As I was on my way to the washroom I met Ambar the girl whose roommate I borrowed for a night and she said Hi. I thought we were going to be arch enemies but she instead invited me to her room and asked me to hang out with them. I went to her room straightaway after brushing because I was desperate for some friends and they were all very welcoming. We introduced ourselves and it started getting really fun so we planned to explore Chennai and I got really close to the two of them and we vibed on a different level. We went to the beach and then went shopping which was really fun and I needed a break, then we came back and had dinner together. The food was horrible and I have no idea how I will survive in this for an entire year which was very scary and now I realise the importance of homemade food. Sunday we all were mostly chilling and since there was no one in my room, I called everyone for a small party and we played music and foolishly danced like crazy bitches. I told them that I don't think anyone will be joining me in this room, so I marked my territory almost everywhere, used one bed for my used clothes and another to keep my bag and the party was such a hit that by an hour we had 20 people dancing on my floor. I shouted saying you guys are invited every day and we will have fun. They were so happy with me hosting it and they started adorning me which made me feel special. It was almost midnight and since tomorrow is technically our first day to college, everyone wanted to look their best self and went early to bed. We 5 wanted to chill a little more so we went to the balcony and sat on the railing which was so peaceful. Then we applied a face pack and after washing our faces we went to our respective rooms. I was sleeping alone today but felt less miserable because I was having fun. I quickly went through some fashion videos and then slept. The next morning we had to get up early and wore Blue Jeans with a light blue denim jacket and a High Pony and took my leather bag. Before class, we had a small meeting in the auditorium which was basically an introduction to all the respective fields available on the campus. It was a more detailed introduction on how lectures, projects and assignments will be structured and how we can get more credits. They also strictly emphasized the importance of attending classes regularly and how attendance percentage works. I had already decided to get an amazing score so that I can change my centre. We went to our respective classrooms and sadly the person that I liked the least in my group was in the same class with me. We added approximately 30 students in one classroom out of which only 8 were boys and the rest were girls. This is the kind of female dominance you would find in any design college and hence dating and actually finding someone here would be a task. My class was the first in number and I dear in the front row with my hostel mate. Since our hostel is inside the campus we used to go during Lunch-break and keep the materials and artworks I don't need anymore. I did the same and went for my room during lunch break and as I was about to enter my hostel premises, the warden saw and she told me please clean your room be because your new roommates are here and seeing the room they were freaking out but it was an honest mistake because I want expecting anyone and official made it into a part club so I rushed to my room and the first thing I had to do was apologise. Then I collected my items and kept them either on my bed or inside my cupboard and finally introduced myself. They seemed a little naive and confused but I think I can keep up with them.

We meet again in the evening and we had a more enthusiastic introduction and I found them to be good people I can get along with. They also kept that things are neatly and I on the other hand turned out to be very messy. The next day when I came to my room, my bed was all tired up and my clothes nearly folded and my table all clean, I was unable to figure it out how all that happened and turns out my roommate did it for me. Their ulterior motive was to teach me how does it feel when the room is still clean but being that efficient right away was beyond my capability but I promised to be good.

Also, it was a humongous change in my personality because I have always been a backbencher and now for me to try and sit in the front hoping to learn was an evolution that I wasn't going to come so early. The first lecture I still remember was in the History of art and I found it so interesting contrary to my previous History lessons which were all about wars being fight and battles being won which in simple words boring. Here it was about the evolution of art and literature, how fashion happened and everything amazing. How could schooling keep me away from such a masterpiece and how could I have wasted so many years of my life learning something that now I am not going to even need and that explains why Michael Angelo and Leonardo Vinci are pure genius because they have grown up doing what they love and sometimes for inhumane hours. I have technically 18 years and now I am in a quest to cover up for it. I loved every assignment that was given to me and did it with pure dedication. I was quick with good skills and the professor's loved me for what I was doing. I even applied to be a part of the cultural team and got selected and my college mates found me elegant because I had good clothes and was funny at the same time. I had many friends in College but due to my cultural meetings and classes I was unable to attend to all my friends which kind of created a very little tension but that was okay because I have shown them High Hopes of how I will be their party girl and now a week into my classes I have become that everybody wants to avoid but since they have seen my other side so they had a soft corner for me and I tried involving myself whenever I could. The classes started with the basic foundation of colour schemes, finding inspiration and learning our rich cultural heritage and going through as many fashion books I could. I didn't find any class a waste of my time so important for various aspects in designing structured with Industrial standards. But that doesn't mean I have completely lost touch with my earlier self. I still wanted to date but as already mentioned earlier it is very hard for me to compromise even a little and I couldn't find a single guy who I can date, so I knew that my type is not inside the college and I have to look elsewhere. But honestly, I had no time, College was hectic and we had a lot of assignments plus with the little time we had I used to chill with my friends and sometimes with my roommates but we weren't that close yet. One of our friend's parents invited us for lunch and we all went with them first to the mall and then went for lunch at this Biryani place realising I hate Chennai's biriyani because it honestly sucks and wanted to go back to Kolkata's Biryani which is the best Biryani in the world. It was fun in general but I wanted to go someplace wild like maybe be in a club or some house party. Also, I got the very exciting news that Anwesha is also coming to Chennai as she took admission to an Engineering College which made me so happy but we were like three hours away which was a lot. But definitely, it wouldn't keep us away and the first week she was in, I asked her to come to my College and I sneaked her into my hostel and she stayed with me for like two days

and even the warden believed that she is from our College and didn't ask me anything about her because everyone was new to her. I was really happy and more than that I felt comfortable asking her as if I was home. Even my friends started asking who is she and they were impressed with how easily I was keeping her with me. Then she went back Sunday night and I was missing her already. The first semester was about working and making new friends, taking part in cultural programmes and enjoying College life whenever you get time to. Honestly semester one went away was going very quickly but just before our Semester break it started raining very heavily. Initially, it was very fun and we used to go to the beach while it rained but it was being reportedly told that Chennai can be flooded. We were going to classes in a heavy downpour and everyone was becoming furious that why aren't being the classes called off. Then it rained continuously and the much-anticipated Flood was here. Since I College was somewhere above the Low-lying area, so the water did flood our campus which was some 3 feet above the ground and things started getting difficult. There was no electricity most of the time, no cash in the nearest ATM and we couldn't go to the market. Even all the Stationary and Confectionery shops inside our College were running out of food. Finally, the exams were called off and it would be held at the beginning of the next semester and there was a nice of panic because since the Holidays were anyways approaching so everyone wanted to leave for home at the earliest but no flights and trains were operating a be the only option people were left with was to go to the nearest city Bangalore by Bus, Cab or Taxi. One of my friends had arranged for a Bus and around 30 people were going from our College to it and since there was almost no seat, I requested one of my classmates who was also a friend of mine to arrange for seats. Thankfully he did it for me and I packed my bags and the bus was supposed to leave by 10 pm today. We are all stuffing with any food items we could get as there is no hotel we can stop for dinner. Around 10:30 when the buses were about to leave the Hostel Warden came running saying you guys can't leave because you don't have permission to and we needed to leave almost immediately because the government authority had permitted for the Dams to open and if the water starts fluttering then we will be stuck in the hostel. We fought with the warden got in the Bus but the Guards were not opening the gates and we were banging out so that they can open them. It was a huge fight between us and the Director and all we wanted to do was leave. Then the girl who has arranged the bus for all of us got on a call with the Director and after a lot of insisting and debate we were given permission but one after we sign a letter saying the College is not responsible and the Students are leaving with the permission of their Guardian. We didn't have a problem in doing that and got on the bus and left for Bangalore. Personality out was a huge victory for all of us and we were celebrating unknown from the torments of the people who have lost everything to the flood. If you google Chennai Flood 2015 you so see how devastating it was and we had honestly no idea about the gravity of the situation. All we wanted to do was escape to our hometown and chill for Christmas. We knew that the death toll was increasing with each passing day and literally could see people walking barefoot half-drowned in water with their family and little belongings that were left with them and there the number never stopped till we were there be it day or night. Our friends who were not staying in the hostel were deprived of basic necessities like food, drinking water and lights. Soldiers were rescuing people and delivering food via helicopters and boats and though we were in the centre of the while situation, we didn't care and ask we did was expressed or sadness for them but yet only thinking about going to Bangalore and taking a flight to our respective places. My uncle was staying in Bangalore and he came to pick me up the next day and I went to his place took a nice guy shower popped comfortably and then ate so much. I was so relieved and happy as I was laying on a comfortable bed covering myself up with a soft blanket forgetting the scenario back in Chennai watching series and ate amazing food, a break I needed after a long semester. After a week I went back to my home and child there again for 3 weeks. Going back to Chennai had always been the hardest to I had to do for my entire college life. As soon as I reach Chennai I am over the Homesickness but before that, it is crazy difficult. But my vacations were over and I had to go back and the worst part was that since our Jury was not over we had to start the first clear the exams for the previous semester and then begin with a new which was much needed because I was barely sleeping for like 2-3 hours for the last 5 days and honestly I have never worked so much in my entire life and not just that the kind of stress you are under because you have to present your work to 3 external panels who can grill you for the king The jury kept hanging for like a week before we could resume classes for next semester and thankfully there was a weekend and we all finally got the time to hang out with each other and catch-up. We went to the nearby mall, did some grocery shopping and I bought few interiors for my room then ate at Burger King before coming back. I consider Burger King, Domino's and Mc Donald's as College student's food because they come under such a nice budget and give us so many options. But I promised myself that once I start earning I will cut down all this junk from my life and go vegan maybe and live a good life so that my body can rejoice and forget the nutritional suffering that it has been through. I wore a blue dress with an exaggerated heel and everyone in the college was in love with my outfit. They were literally coming and asking me where did I get it from and telling me I have put on an amazing outfit to kick start the semester with which got me excited and started wondering what will I wear for this entire week so that I can keep up with the Hype. I have made more friends during class and I mostly hung out with them and they were much better than my old friends. Me and one of a close friend in the class decided to click pictures every day for an entire semester and make a journal out of it but which it didn't happen. Every new semester we had different subjects and we were given an introduction to all of them in the beginning itself which was ki ing of fun. Then we were dispersed back to our respective classes and a faculty introduction would take place. Every class has its own mentor and for it was Mr Thomas who was weird but in a good way and I perKrityaly liked him. He had his own way of getting things done from us and we had a presentation every third week and that is when we would be marked based on our project. NIFT surely knew how to Hype things up and even the assignment presentation had to be painful and proper and the classes were neatly arranged with tables aligned in one line covered with White Cloth and then we used to open the Windows so that the room becomes so breezy and spray room-freshener to light the mood of Mr. Thomas and one time we took it to next level by arranging music lights, soft music and some refreshment in case he gets tired which was next level ass-kissing. Hid assignments used to take a major part of our time because they were humongous but once we were done with his work we used to chill the week later. Chennai falls in the thermal equatorial region which keeps this city hot most of the time and hence we were losing shades and the frequent visit to the beach only worsened it. We had a lot of class trips in between which included going to the museum, textile factories, exhibitions, malls, trade centres and visiting Artisans in between. The class trip used to be fun but again the weather kind of made things a little sad. The more I was getting into my work the less I started caring about how I looked and what I wore and started giving up on my social life. Obviously, all this had a good return as I became a class topper becoming a 9 pointer and honestly that came as a shock because I was definitely working hard but somewhere not expecting things to pay off so well. My grades and the teachers pampering me got be a little famous but at the same time, my classmates started envying me which I couldn't adjust to. Till now I hardly knew anyone who would envy me especially because of my grades so it was all very new to me and can't as a shock.

One day as we were listening to a lecture, I saw a student standing outside our class he was looking a little lost and if I have to precisely describe him I would say he is the most beautiful person I have ever encountered in my life. He was tall with grey eyes, skin so far it had an unreal shine and his lips were all pink. The lecturer asked us where we guys were looking and turned back to see him and then looked at us with a smiling face. She told us that he is the son of a Famous Chennai Designer and is here to take admission for a Diploma course. He is the one I thought in my mind and so did the rest of my classmates, everyone was curious to know him and approach him and I wanted to do the same didn't know-how. At that time I made friends with this girl and there's is a funny story and how I know her. Every College has two to three rounds of counselling and some students join later. Praneeti and her roommates came a week later than I did in our first semester. So I and my friends batches into her room and told her we are seniors and tried bullying her and asked her to get chocolates for us. We did this for a day and then we finally revealed ourselves and I am sure they were annoyed but did nothing about that because they were new. So now I am friends with Praneeti and hopefully, all sorts of memories are gone. We used to talk a lot about boys and we were equally interested in Haider, so we decided to try and be friends with one of his classmates so that great we can get maximum information about him and then find a way to approach him. After a week of successful spying, we found this one person who was from his batch and kind of had only one or two friends and yes she was our target. The next day she was sitting alone on the stairs and we decided to make friends with her. So without wasting any further time we rushed and sat next to her. After 5 minutes Praneeti lost her patience and said her a high and then after that keeping up a conversation was so easy. We became friends by the end of the day, exchanged numbers and from the next day started hanging out together. We maintained our friendship with her for like a week before we asked about Haider and she gave information but more than that we needed some way to be introduced to him. She didn't seem like the one that would do that for us given the fact that she didn't know him perKrityaly, we were back to square one. I mean we knew where he stayed and what his mother did and things here and there but nothing was so relevant that would actually help us get closer to him. Meanwhile, whenever he was passing by us we were definitely looking at him like the rest of the other groups around him and him and me, we made eye contact multiple times so he probably knew about my existence. One time I was sitting b at the stationary shop because I had made friends with the owner so I was chilling there when he came wearing a blue shirt. The owner who asked very friendly to almost every one of us asked me whether am I simply chilling out I have an intention to buy something to replied "anything in Blue will work Bhaiya (brother)" and Haider smiled at me because I made it so obvious, so somewhere I was feeling that there is a chance and thinking of a way to approach him.

Also, our annual College fest was approaching and since I was the post of the cultural team, my main goal was to look for sponsors and chief guests. Boom I had a plan to ask Haider if her mom would like to come for the event as one of the Chief Guests. I involved Praneeti in the plan and she seemed okay with him. So we were supposed to ask him today about it and as soon as the class was over we waited for him to leave the Campus. We were sitting at top of the stair and he was at the extreme corner downward talking to his friends in a position that was completely facing us. This would be probably the first he was chilling with his classmates after college and we were desperate for him to leave. Somewhere I felt is it because he can see me and not leaving or I might only become this in my head just to build enough confidence so that I can approach him. Then he took his bag and that was a sign and we trudged towards the gate and were standing a little outside waiting for him. We bought two ice-cream candies so that things doesn't look so weird and waited. He finally walked out but he was about to talk in the opposite direction and then he saw me and looking at me he walked towards my direction. I didn't know what to do and we walked towards him and she passed us and I got so disheartened but then Praneeti called him. I got so flustered, I mean what we will say to him and he came and was looking at me. Honestly, I couldn't say a word and Praneeti did all the talking regarding the chief guest thing and took his number. Then she gave it to me and asked me to text him and I felt Praneeti was an Angel in disguise. So I started talking to Hyder, but he was not much of a texting guy and our chats were not that aggressive. I thought of taking him to the team so that we can let him in the plan and he can invite his mom but Praneeti asked me not to do that otherwise they will start getting into this and you would be sidelined. I didn't know whether that was a valid point or not but dropped that idea and focused on just talking to him. He hadn't asked me out yet and I couldn't do that either because we were not that close yet, so instead focus on mostly texting him. I was talking to him one fine night and I was telling him how fucked up my hostel was and in the meantime as in between our conversation I had a Washroom urgency so I opened my door and as I was going to the washroom I saw a Dog standing right outside my door. It was scary and hilarious and I texted him saying "A dog is standing outside my room". I don't know how he took it but after that, he stopped texting me together. The next day when I told my friends and sister, they told me it was so dumb for me to do that and I shouldn't have texted that. But honestly, I was just letting him know and if asked I would have told him and if any relationship is this fragile that can stop over one-word text so I am really fine with not having it. It has been a week already but there was no text from him so I was not becoming obsessive about it and on the other hand was not in the mood to kill my time especially in NIFT. I quickly recovered from my fantasy and got back to the assignments. We still faced each other a lot of times in College but I avoided any direct contact and in case I wanted to look at it I did it indirectly. After the semester break, I was heading back home and one day before we planned on going to a party. So, I and one of my roommates pulled a night stay at a friend's place, got ready there only and went for the party. We had made friends with this party manager who kind of holds all eminent parties in Chennai, so we always went there for free and not only that we were given special free drinks. When we went there it was a special occasion and hence we were photographed with a lot of props and went inside. There were not many people and some of our friends also came. There was this one group where there was a guy who was really good so I and Twinkle kind of had our eye on him but since twinkle saw him first, I decided to be the food this time. He was actually very outgoing and actually one of a few of our friends from college so when we all were dancing together, we introduced each other and then asked whether we would want to join him for a smoke. Though we didn't smoke that much, going would elevate the chance of knowing them so we followed and they asked us what we were doing the next day. Twinkle and other friends of mine were here but I wasn't so I told him that they are here and you guys can plan. Then the next day Twinkle and Ankita came to drop me off at the Airport and then I flew back to my place. Going home is the nicest feeling ever and coming back is the worst but it is a cycle I am trapped in. The next day Twinkle called me and I am generally not into a complete no call mode whenever I am with family but since she called me thrice there must have been a reason and I picked up. She seemed excited and told me she had news for me and I was expecting some heated up conversation between Twinkle and Shekhar, that guy from earlier but there was something else. She told me that Kritya there is this friend of Shekhar, Aamir who came with him and he is hot. He looks like Hyder, maybe a better version of him and he is everything that the guy should have. He is freaking tall, hot and doesn't talk so much so and is a little introvert and then continued saying Shekhar was asking whether Komal or friend is single or not so maybe he can patch Komal and Aamir up but she said Komal is not so amazing and Kritya, on the other hand, had a recent break-up so instead we can make things happen between Kritya and Aamir. Why are my friends so good to me and I am so happy that finally, I will have a good date and maybe if things work out a good old fashioned relationship. This time I was a little excited going back and once I went back I and Twinkle started planning on how to work this out. She was in continuous contact with Shekhar and he told Twinkle that Aamir would be sending me friend requests on Facebook and the next day he did. I accepted his request and he was the first one to say Hi and I was simply answering his question. I wanted to keep an upper hand in this relationship so I made sure that I try to be a little too myself and not give in so quickly. After two days of continuous chatting, he asked me for my number and I had him. After that, we started chatting on Whatsapp and he asked me whether I would like to go for a movie with him. Meanwhile, Shekhar had a plan that all four of us would go for lunch and it was due the coming Saturday. But just a day before Aamir had to cancel saying he had some work in the bank and I was a little annoyed but obviously I can't show it because we all are not that close. While on the other hand Aamir asked me to meet him and I felt that he preferred meeting me alone for some reason. He asked me whether I would like to go for coffee or something with him and I obviously said yes. So we planned to meet the coming weekend and I asked Ankita to accompany me and while I was meeting him she could shop in the mall. Ankita was okay with the plan and even Twinkle wanted to join us but she had an extra class so we two went. We reached the mall and I called him but he was not picking up so I dropped a message saying I have reached and went back to shopping with Ankita. After 15 minutes I started worrying a little but honestly I was definitely sure that he would come. So I called him again and he finally picked up and told me that he won't be able to make it because he doesn't have any cash on him and hence he wouldn't be able to come and honestly I didn't know how to react. I told him that I am already here but he was like please understand I won't be able to come and he started apologising for it. I was super annoyed and told him that he doesn't show up then we are not meeting but he was like please understand I am really sorry and won't be able to come. Then I told Ankita the same thing and she was super annoyed as well and told me let's go back and teach that guy a good lesson. We are at KFC and thankfully Anwesha was also meeting me that day. We waited for Anweshaas she would be here any minute and there she was. I hugged her tightly and she gave me beautiful accessories from Claire because my birthday was in three days. We chilled for like half an hour and then we had to leave because there was a deadline so we had to reach before 8:30 so we left early. I didn't tell anything to Anwesha because I was honestly very insulted and wanted to involve the least number of people in it. As I reached the hostel Twinkle was really excited and she thought that Aamir had given me that gift. I was kind of annoyed at Twinkle as well because she was the one who kind of began all this but quickly realised how wrong that would be because she only planned good things for me and completely dismissed myself from all such thoughts. Then Ankita told me to call him and give him a nice lecture and I didn't care but since I was not in the mood to talk to him, Ankita called him from my phone and told him some kind of foul words. She gave him a very nice bashing and I was completely enjoying the conversation and then she kept the phone down and had a good laugh about it. Then Twinkle came and we told her everything and she wanted to be a part of the conversation and was upset that we didn't wait for her but we did it very suddenly. The next day he texted me saying it I had reached properly the previous day but obviously, I didn't reply so he apologised again and told me I am not this kind of a person and money was not the reason actually, I had a family issue and that is why I couldn't turn up and ask for my forgiveness. I didn't know what to do and told him let's chuck it and then my roommates gave me the worst idea possible and told me to confess to him about my feelings that I like him. There was no basis for me to do that but I got so under the influence and did it. Then he texted back saying I don't know what to say because we have not even met and hardly know each other and it was the truth so I stopped replying to him because now I have reached the peak of awkwardness with him. But at the same time, I didn't feel like talking to my friends because this was the worst piece of advice anybody could give and so we were not on talking terms for the next two days but after that, we kind of gave in. After that even Aamir didn't text me and I also took no such interest. After this semester was almost about to end and I was heading back to my place when Shekhar called Twinkle asking whether we can join them for a party or not so I was like okay but specifically told Twinkle not to ask whether Aamir would be joining us or not. We went to the party the next day and Shekhar was there with his friends and there he was chilling with Shekhar and had a drink in his hand. I definitely didn't want to talk to him and thankfully we three were only there so even by chance he comes and talks to me it wouldn't be so awkward and the news will not spread. Then as anticipated Shekhar came with him and he said a Hi and introduced himself and I have completely turned my Bitch-mode on so I wasn't replying to his answers easily and even if I did it included a lot of Tantrums. Then we were dancing and drinking, but I am not much of a drinker and instead focused more on dancing. He tried dancing a little with us and thankfully wasn't specifically sticking to me because then I wasn't sure how to react. We were supposed to leave early because we planned to meet one of our friends and hang out at her place, so they dropped us off at our friend's place. We didn't talk much because he was sitting at the front seat and I grabbed the back corner seats and he kind of already felt the hindrance from my side. Then we left saying a bye and afterwards I felt super bad because he was really hot. Though I didn't find him hotter than Hyder, he was still amazing and effin tall. The next day I left for my place and approximately after two days he texted me saying he found me really pretty and wanted to hang out with me a little more. Then he said that he wanted to reply to my confession earlier and he also liked me and asked me when I could meet him next. I told him that I was at home right now so only after 3 weeks we could possibly meet. He seemed okay with that and we were texting continuously for the next 3 weeks and he asked me what I am looking for in this relationship and I told him that I am not looking for anything too serious but at the same not casual as well. He told me that he is also not looking for anything serious as well but I was pretty sure that he was looking for something casual so I kind of gave him a hint that I don't prefer getting casual so quickly and he said that is okay. Then as I reached Chennai he called me up and asked me if I could meet him today and I said yes. Then he picked me up in his scooty and we went for a ride. It happened very suddenly and I got to know that he will be leaving for his master's in two months time. We met again the next day and went for Coffee and I asked him whether he was dating anyone after we started talking and he said a few which was kind of dad to hear because he could have dated me instead but didn't. He invited me to his brother's birthday party and I asked Twinkle if she could join me for the party and she was fine with it. The next day we went to his place and I did something weird and tried patching Twinkle and Aamir's younger brother Aamir. The party was good and Aamir took me to his room because he said he wanted to spend some time alone with me and we were talking about random stuff. Then he came closer to me and tried kissing me on my cheeks and I kind of let him do that because I wanted the same and a little more maybe and then he hugged me but soon his friends started looking for him and since twinkle was kind of alone so we had to join the party back. The next day he told me that might have to go to his cousin's wedding in Hyderabad and asked me in case if he doesn't go then can I come and stay at his place. The idea of spending the night felt so good that I immediately said yes and asked him to make sure that he doesn't go. He told me that he will try to convince his parents but he can't promise right away. The next day he asked me that if he has to go then can I go with him for a small vacation to a nearby beach and stay with him for 3 days. The plan was even getting more interesting and I really wanted to go with him but wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do so I went to Twinkle and asked her whether it would be good for me to join him. Twinkle said no and told me that it is too early for you guys to do all that and you can't trust him which was obviously true. I told him that I would think about it but it was a no and after that, he had to go to the wedding but once he came back he asked if I could come to his place. I made quick decisions and dates but if I am not getting the right vibe I completely get myself away from it so with Aamir the same thing was happening and I felt that he was more concerned about getting physical so even I was trying to stay less in touch with him. And since he was already leaving in less than a month now I found no reason to stay connected with him or date him. And finally, this is how many 7th Date turned out to be no good an affair.
