chapter 38

Anshika walked towards the road and booked a cab wiping her tear drops from her eyes. She didn't turn around to check if Harshit followed and understood that Harshit understood something about her feelings. However she was not in a mood to talk about it so she chose not to speak up then.The cab arrived and she got up on it. She sat looking out of the window at the scenery outside until they entered the city routes without much pleasant scenes. She closed her eyes and felt stupid for crying and walking away like that. It was late at night and Anshika was asleep when she got up with message notifications. She looked at the glowing phonescreen and found out that it was Harshit."Anshu come down.""What?""Yes come down.""Are you joking?""No. See there are so many mosquitoes bothering me. I'm just out of the fence come down quick."Anshika giggled reading his message and looked down from her window to find Harshit waving at her gesturing her to calm down.She quickly climbed down the steps and went to him."What are you doing here now?""Just came to meet my stupid Bae.""Ah Bae?""Okay not Bae, but Anshu.""That sounds good.""Before we talk further here's your chocolate.""How thoughtful of you Harsh.""Yeah I know."Anshika smiled a little."So you still love me?""Still?""Yeah.""For that no. I don't like that. But this thing  with you is different and you having other girlfriends was.....""You don't have to say more."Harshit came and hugged her."I was hurt by that open relationship thing.""Yes I know and understood that.""So? You should apologise right?""Hey no! We both are in it.""This is not an open relationship Harshit. We came together as a casual couple but then turned out as best friends and now when you would love to crush on and be with other girls that doesn't mean an open relationship. We are not in a romantic relationship."Harshit smiled."Yeah? We are not right?""No."Harshit came close and hugged her with his mouth close to her ear."So you need to understand it now that we are friends and I love you as a friend and you love me as a friend."Anshika looked in his eyes."You're right. Now I'm more happy for you going out to pursue your ambition.""I so much love that. Good night.""Good night."Anshika felt happy listening to Harahit's words and laughed on being stupid in front of him.
