“No. But tell me wh...”
“Well, then I guess we can go out for lunch unless you don't want to anymore. I mean, I can go home...” I shrugged looking away.
Aariz made me look at him, rubbing his hands gently on my face, he said in a firm tone,
“Of course I want to. And don't forget, you will always be going home with me from now on.”
“All right then, I’ll meet you around the turn of the road.” I picked up my book and laptop, hurrying towards the door, grinning goofily.
I was in the corridor when Aariz came to stand by the doorframe and said with an air of finality,
“We are going out, but don't think we are done with this topic yet.”
Shit?
I walked fast without turning to look at him, but came to a halt, as Aya blocked my way, cooing, “Aww! Cosy.”
“He was not telling that to me.” I said rather too quickly and turned around to see he still stood by the door.
Idiot!
“He was talking to...uh...Professor Gracie.” I waved my hand at her office door, which was exactly in front of Aariz’s.
Aya smirked with laughter in her eyes. Before she could speak, I stated, “She went into her office and so he yelled behind her. Yeah.” I nodded to myself.
Aya raised her eyebrows looking at me with mock surprise, “And you did not claw her eyeballs yet?”
I opened my mouth, but no words came out as she went on in the same tone as if stunned, “You even left him alive for planning to go out with her!”
“Why do I care and why do you?!” I grumbled and pushed her aside as I left.
“Yeah, hurry up. Lover boy is waiting in anticipation!” Aya said in a loud carrying voice that echoed in the deserted corridor.
I glanced over my shoulder, to find Aariz really was still standing by his door with a startled expression on his face looking at Aya, who was in the middle of the corridor.
Yes my sexy idiota, come and walk me to my every class from next time onwards, so that nobody has a doubt in their minds about our freaking forbidden relationship!
35-Broke her heart
Aariz
It felt like living in a dream. Sani was dating me. She was ready to go out with m
e. I had never thought it would happen so soon, or that it would happen at all. She loves me. I couldn’t help but laugh at how surreal it felt.
I had just about entered the parking lot when the smile left my lips in an instant as I saw her.
There stood Sani with Sahil and his friends. She was laughing gloriously at something they said and to my utter annoyance doing high five with Sahil. She was enjoying the company of the guy she had brushed off half an hour ago. With the guy she knew I did not have much of a good opinion about. Yet there she was.
Crunching my jaw, I sat inside the car and drove off. Eventually I was able to calm down thinking; she might have gone to hand the assignment papers to Sahil. Yes. I just over-react when he comes into question. My mistake.
So, moments later when Sani reached the turn I was waiting for her on, I was smiling again.
Soon I was in a lovely restaurant with an even lovelier company.
“You know, I had never pecked you for a shy one.” I grinned at her as we ate.
Sani raised her eyebrows bringing her hand in front of me dramatically,
