Friendship V/S Love

Only then I was watching that little far away from us, Bhumi is shopping with Dakshita's group while enjoying.

Then I heard the sound of both of them (Lena & that boy) talking to each other, which diverted my attention away from Bhumi.

"Is she always talking like this to everyone?" That boy said.

Lena: "No! But I think my friend didn't like you much."

"OK…So what do I have to do, to be top on the list of her favourites?"

"Why do I feel that you're showing a little interest in my friend! What's the matter, do you like her?" Lena said.

He gave her a satisfying answer by bringing a smile to his face. Seeing their antics, my blood started boiling but I kept calm and pretended that I hadn't heard anything.

When both of them were over, they started staring at me as if I were an alien.

I wanted to scold them about this, but I heard a familiar cold voice: "Rajive! Why are you here?"

When I saw the direction of the voice, I realized that it was none other than Bhumi.

And according to the knowledge, she did not look at us and directly asked Rajive in anger out of her arrogance.

Rajive got up hurriedly and went near to her and once looked at Dakshita. He said:

"B..A..B..A..Y! I just sat and waited for you. Have you finished buying your stuff?"

After all, he said by placing his hand in her waist, due to which her anger was little cooled down a bit.

Bhumi: "Baby! I know that you won't cheat me but just I don't want you to fall into the clutches of some 3rd class girls because they can create a rift between us."

It clearly means that she deliberately speaks all these for insulting us.

Whereas listening to this, Dakshita and her group had put a grin like a Cheshire cat smile on their faces.

On the other hand, that boy was pretended like he doesn't understand anything.

Observing him for a while, I started to understand a little bit that this guy is probably her boyfriend.

This can't be a coincidence affair with our friend and to sit with us, in her presence that he wants to increase the hatred for us in Bhumi's mind, when I thought of this I get furious.

But now there is no use even after quarrelling because they were earlier left.

And after we drank coffee and did some more shopping then we also left from there.

The next morning:

Like every day I was on my way to school when I noticed that someone is constantly following me, since on the way to my house.

I started feeling scared and nervous, I was walking forward looking down at my head.

Suddenly when Lena's voice came into my ears, I knew that due to tension, I had forgotten that I had left her behind, I slap on my head a bit and drag her arms.

Both of us entered the school while running, we both take a sigh of relief and I turned around and tried to see that person who was following us with a bike for so long.

I saw the same shopping mall guy standing there (outside the entrance gate), but no! he was smiling looking at me.

On the other hand, when that guy saw that I was staring at him angrily, he removed his sunglasses from his eyes and looked at me smiling like a supermodel while sitting on the bike.

While showing my anger I started looking at him with a warning, at the same time Lena came in front of me with her anger and surprise.

And started asking me endless questions that why we were running like this and who was the one following us all the way? And many more.

Earlier I was furious because of him and now her question, whose answer was the only one which I don't want to expose.

As much as I wanted to ignore him, every time he would do something because of which I've been forceful to pay attention to him.

But somewhere I knew that he was committed and I was never coming as the third person between the couples, but I was more surprised that if he was her boyfriend then why was he always stalking me, where he should always be with her.

10 December 2010:

It was only a few days for our final exam to start so we lay in preparing for the exam.

From that day onwards, he didn't chase or stalk me again for a few days.

I thought maybe it was some dare game challenge or, some ragging that made him follow me and by thinking this, slowly slowly…I had forgotten about him completely.

On the other hand, I felt that Vishal was deep in love with Lena but he was so shy to tell his feelings every time and I became frustrated, I used to feel that I should realise the bunch of mad dogs and wild cats behind him.

But these days we three became best friends.

One day, Lena had taken leave from school to see her sick grandpa.

During the evening time, Vishal came to me as he got an opportunity and sat beside me with a troubled appearance.

Although I knew his stupidity or you can say I asked him that problem being unaware: "What's the matter? That you leave baseball and sat beside me! Does anything happen?" I said casually.
