RHEA'S POV - CRUSH OR NOT

"but seriously.... if I am being honest I saw him... the way he looks at you... its just like he is in love with you or something. He looks at you with such affection and warmth that I have chills at time" Ivy said in a serious tone

" Wh..a..ttttt?? Noo...Noo... Noo... I think you are highly mistaken. Why would he even like me? and to be honest he is way out of my league... so the chance of him liking me is..lets guess...yes... 0%" I said making a zero with my hand.

"Seriously girl... he is very direct about it that's why I am so sure when I am speakingto you about this... don't tell me you didn't notice" Ivy said

I sighed because I knew somewhere it was true and I knew it but again did not dare to admit it.

"Okay honestly yes he flirts... A LOTT but I thought he just casually flirts with everyone you only told me he looks like a playboy remember?" I said not thinking too much about it.

"I don't think its just casual flirting Rhea" Ivy said in a serious tone. "what do you think about him?"

"Keeping side the ouside things,because ofcourse its avious... he is nice .... a little too flirty at times but yet very intellectual ans smart...." I said honestly

"I am not asking for a 50 words review in here" she said interrupting me with a 'matter of fact' expression "I am asking you do you like him or not?"

"Well that's a difficult question...How can I say that only after knowing him for like what? 24hours?" I said stating the avious

"But still... you would have felt something" Ivy said still not giving up.

"Like what? Uncomfortableness?" to which I got a side eye look

"Okay okay... amm... " I took a one minute pause "don't know" to which Ivy sighed and shook her head.

"Or is it that you like someone else" Ivy said rasing her eyebrows and I gave her a questioned look thinking whats going in her mind now "someone like Krutik...??"

Ofcourse.... she thought of him who else could it be.

Now it was my turn to sigh.

"No Ivy... He is really special to me, maybe too special. I love him and he is the one who has taught me how to be respected. He made me felt protected and supported me whenever I needed him. But I don't think we are romantically interested in each other... never have... never will. How can I say it... I never got that vibe." When I said all these feelings out loud it became clear to me as well, all the doubts and confusion were vanished within some seconds and somehow it felt nice.

"ohhhowww... so veer it is" Ivy said

"What Veer it is? Veer nothing is...Don't you dare do something weird" I said with a warning tone.

"Ammhmmm... Will see" Ivy said to which she earned a death stare from me.

After some time Krutik came back home. He bought us some Toast sandwiches as well.

"So how was your drive? And your personal work?" Ivy said to Krutik in a sarcastic tone making sure to put a lot of pressure on the word 'personal'

"Quite good honestly. I really like this veer guy." Krutik said with a smile.

"Oh God nooo..... Don't tell me you are into guys??" Ivy said with a dramatic expression "I am sure you two will make a great couple and I am not judging at all"

I tried to hold my laugh but it failed to do so and then I and Ivy burst out laughing

"Hahahahaha, Ivy is so funny" Krutik said with a fake laughter to which we even laughed harder.

After this suddenly I head a notification.

It was a text from an unknown number so I didn't bother to read it instantly. When I went to bed I unlocked my phone and saw the text.
