She stole a look at him
and he was there in his best black gho looking charming as ever. She pretended
as if it didn’t affect her. He was concentrating hard in his physics class. She
stole another look at him. It was advantage on her side since he use to sit in
the first bench. He hardly talks with her and she tries hard to suppress her
feelings for him. It’s just a swaying feeling she thought. He walks in front of
her and she laughs thinking “weird guy have different walking style.” He halts
and turns around to ask her friend for the physics practical note book. She
acts as if she hadn’t notice him and pretends to be absorbed in her thought.
“Why he didn’t ask my book” she heard herself talking to herself. “I did all
the calculation and report and my friend just copied from me and he asks her
instead of me. What is so wrong with me?” Another conversation with herself
There was a practical
class and in the group of four he wasn’t there. Her friend tells her that he is
not showing up for the practical class and she tells her “who cares…leave it if
he does not want to do it” but she hears her own voice “you do stupid”. She
starts doing her practical but every now and then she steals a look at the door
to check whether he is coming or not. And after sometime he does. He walks with
that expressionless face and talks to her friend. She acts as if she didn’t
notice him. When he ask her question she gives a confusing answer or rather
sarcastic suggestion like “you should go back to hostel and sleep if you can’t
come on time.” he gives her a half smile. She tries not to blush.
He sits in the first
bench so that he can avoid seeing her since his attention turns around to her.
He tries hard to concentrate in his physics class but her face with that smile
he has seen in the morning pops in his mind every now and then. He walks in
front of her so that he can hear her laughing and talking with her friend. He hears “ouch sound” and turns around to
check whether she was okays or not and realizes it as another girl. Out of
embarassesment he asks her friend’s practical notebook. He steals a look at
her and sees that she was busy watching skies “why does she make me feel so invisible.
“He hears his voice.
He was watching football
match when his phone rang. It was her friend calling him to come for practical
class.” Damn it why did I forget.” He rushes to do the practical and sees her
absorbed in her work. He asks her procedure and she says him to go back to hostel
and sleep. Why does she hate me so much?
he thinks
He walks away from her
and joins other friend. He hears her giggling voice and turns around to see his
friends near her. He was criticizing one of the class mates. He was sitting idle in the corner when she
came to return the instrument. He stands up to help her but instead of asking
her to help he asks” is practical over?” she does not look at him and says
“yes” and walks away. He followed the rest of the group including her. They
were done with the practical and no one gave a damn shit to him. He walked
lonely while she was accompanied with her ever best friend Phuntsho and rest of
the group. She was laughing over the joke that Phuntsho was creating. He walked
slowly since no one dared to care his absence but when they have walked some
distance she turned around and looked at him. He tried to smile but to his
dismay she turned back quickly. But
somehow his friends waited for him outside her hostel and he walked quickly to
catch them. She bid good bye and went to her hostel.
