chapter 28

But he grabbed her hand and pulled her towards himself...He is only trying to save her from getting hit by a ball."Aahhhh" she screamed out of pain.He grabbed her hand really hard. That handkerchief on her hand was all soaked in blood.He saw that and then got a glimpse of the scene, where he saw her before.This is the first time, Manasvini is standing this much closer to a guy. Her heart was pounding too fast. It's the first time she is having these emotions.'This feeling... what is this feeling...' she is blankly staring at the ground."You are the one who saved that little girl..." He asked looking at her hand. He is trying to take a look at her injury.After hearing that from him she looked up, At his face and he turned his eyes from her hand to her face. This is when their eyes met... for the first time.Even when she is wearing glasses and her eyes were teary (because of the pain in her hand) But still, they were the prettiest pair of orbs he had ever seen. He was staring at her without realising.She looked at him... 'His face has a perfect structure, his features are carved beautifully... His dark brown eyes are so deep... His lips... '"What am I thinking" she mumbled and pushed away herself from him. And the next second... She ran away from there.Vihaan was frozen on the spot, he is standing. He often gets surrounded by a lot of girls, But this girl...He put his hand on his chest, his heartbeats were racing crazily."What is she...?" Words came out of his mouth without him realising.He is on his way to join AJs, he put his hand inside his pocket to get his cell phone but he found something else there. It's that paper flower."Did she... Came for this?" He is talking to himself."Then I'll pretend I don't have it" he put that flower back into his pocket."What is happening...? Why do I keep this...? I should just throw it away" he took that flower out and tossed it. He continued walking on his way... But..."What if she came looking for it again..." A thought struck his head.He stopped and went back. He looked here and there, there is no one around. So he picked up that flower and put it inside his pocket and finally left for the class.Manasvini is back in the classroom, she is sitting in the first row because she knows they (AJs) always go for the last rows. She buried her face in her book but his face popped out in there too.She closed that book immediately and covered her eyes with her hands. She was trying to forget that weird feeling. She heard footsteps and her heart started beating even faster. Because there is a familiar scent in the air around her...Vihaan stopped there, for a moment he is thinking about sitting there next to her. But then the next second he saw his friends on the last row, he ignored his own heart and went to his friends. This long second day of college ended like this.Manasvini is back at her home But her mind wasn't clear yet. No matter how much she tries to divert her mind, that moment always popped out in front of her.Vihaan was also back in his house. He is sitting on the bed and staring at that flower. There is a smile on his lips. He is smiling for no reason like an idiot. When he finally came back to his senses"Why did I pick it up..." He mumbled and put that flower in the drawer next to his bed.The next day he is waiting for her to come and ask him about that flower but she didn't come. She neither looked at him nor asked him anything, she is avoiding him. She looks like she doesn't care about it anymore. But he can't do anything He neither talks to her nor ignores her. It's really frustrating for him. Just like this a week has passed and finally...The day of their Fresher's party came into the picture...
