chapter 33

She took a step ahead and grabbed his hand... He didn't expect that neither she did. Her body moved on its own... For a moment she didn't understand anything...He became like a statue, But this time, he realised something... It became clearer, what his heart wants... His heart, which is beating crazily... Just because an old-fashioned girl is holding his hand. What about her heart... Well, her's was about to burst... Soon after that, she came back to reality... she felt his hand's warmth through her fingers... It's not just him... Things are similar on both sides...But those feelings are too strange for her... She instantly released his hand. She has no confidence to look at him in his eyes... When he turned towards her, she uttered some usual words... "I'm sorry."Vihaan didn't hear anything... The only thing... The only sound that is reaching his ears, is the sound of his own heart... He is staring at her face... A flushed red face.Her mind was blank, like a big zero... There is nothing in her mind other than 'I'm sorry'. and after saying that she left... More like she ran away.And Vihaan... He is still there, standing in a daze. He has so many girlfriends... It isn't odd for him to be held by a girl. But this time... It's different. It felt like, time has stopped.A heart is indeed stubborn... it never listens... always does whatever it wants.She just grabbed his hand and he became like this. He tried to deny those feelings, he tried to avoid her but in the end, his heart refused and he fell for her.Manasvini came out of the college building. On her way to her house, she realised... "I forgot to tell him" she sighed."Maybe I'll talk to him tomorrow" she mumbled.On the other side... Vihaan came back to his home. He tossed his bag on the sofa and his body on the bed... He closed his eyes and the very next second that moment flashed in front of him. "She is really dangerous," he said out loud.His brain started recalling every memory that belongs to her... his heart started pounding again, and his lips formed a curve... with every flashing memory that sweet curve became sweeter... But suddenly, his smile disappeared. His sweet expression was swapped with a serious one."She'll get hurt" he mumbled.He can't betray his best friend, but he can't let her get hurt too. Vihaan knows that very well, even if he tries to talk to Aarav. He(Aarav) will not listen to him. He can't tell her either, after all their relationship wasn't that great... Most of the time situation went awkward between them and she always escapes from there leaving him behind. There is no way she's going to listen to him or believe him.That thought 'of her getting hurt' is scaring him. An evening turned into a night... He is still struggling with those feelings... with those thoughts. After thinking for the whole night he found a solution... He decided not to ignore her anymore, from now on, he decided to protect her... But...In his own way...
