It's one week after that embarrassing incident in the library, I am studying from home as my periods have started, and my periods are the worst; I can't even stand or move, and on top of that, I have heavy flow, cramps, and mood swings, but for the first time, I am happy my period has arrived so I can avoid him.
Everyone has decided to bunk last three lectures and study in the common study room where students from any standard, stream, year can study together and by everyone means me, Aakash, Akansha, Parth, Rudy bhai, Abhi bhai, Vaani (parth and Rudy bhai younger sister and my another best friend. She is a science student so we don't meet often but during exam we meet daily) and him.
I have always avoided him and every get-together to avoid him.
When he sat next to me in the library, I could feel him looking at me every 10 minutes.
I was controlling myself too not to look at him and embarrass myself again.
I still couldn't believe that Akshat Malhotra, the Greek god, the famous basketball team captain, and my crush since the first year, was sitting next to me; it was impossible, but I controlled myself, and I had to control my feelings, too.
I don't want to develop any feelings towards him.
I'm scared of getting attached to people. What if they leave me one day?
Since childhood, I had been shifting from one place to another because of dad job and never had a real friendship with anyone, and thats why I stopped believing in friendship too,
I'm a hopeless romantic and believe in love, but relationships now-- no never; mujhse na hoga re baba!
But Parth, Aakash, and Akansha made me believe in friendship again, and no doubt, they are my jaans, and I love them.
"Sanu so jaa kal college jana hai na, late ho jayegi," My Mom said, peeking in my room from the door and making me come out of my thoughts and return to her room.
I stood up from the chair and laid on my bed and drifted off to sleep while thinking how to avoid him tomorrow.
It's the third day of our study session in the common study room where everyone studies together.
Abhi made this plan so he could spend some time with Vaani, his childhood sweetheart.
I am not going to go today, as I'm not interested in this.
I went for the first two days so I could get a glimpse of Sanvi, but she is not coming due to some reason I don't know, and I didn't even ask.
I reached college a little late today and directly attended the second lecture. I was sitting next to Abhi, who was using his phone under the desk, and I was making sure that the professor didn't see him.
"She is on her periods; she can barely even stand during this time," Abhi whispered after a few minutes.
I understood what he was talking about. I gave him an understanding nod and focused on the lecture again.
"She got her periods! What are you saying, and what are you guys discussing? Am I missing something?" Rudra hissed beside us.
"Nothing, he was talking about Vaani," I lied, looking at the professor so he wouldn't notice us talking.
"OMG, Malhotra, are you lying to me? Your diaper buddy- are you serious, RN! And for your kind information, my sister's periods are already over," he said, practically yelling at me, and Abhi was enjoying the show, sitting between us.
"I'll tell you after the lecture, and for now, focus on the lecture," I whispered, looking at him and glaring at Abhi, who was smirking like a fool.
"You three on the last bench, stop talking and focus on the lecture. This is my first and last warning," The professor yelled at us, and we three started focusing on the lecture again.
Time Skips.
The lecture was over, and we were sitting in the cafeteria just outside our college. Rudra was sitting in front of me with his hands crossed on his chest, and Abhi was sipping his coffee while scrolling through his phone.
"Who is she?" asked Rudra after breaking the glaring game of 10 minutes. "Sanvi Sharma," I replied normally while sipping my coffee.
"Okk... wait...wait...what...what the actual fuck, you were talking about Sanvi, parth best friend, your brother bestfriend and my sister, Sanvi. Are you fucking serious rn?" Rudra said after a pause, yelling on my face.
"Yes, we were talking about Sanvi. I know you also noticed the library scene, so stop being so dramatic as if you don't know anything," Abhi replied with a scoff. He doesn't like drama, just like me, and he is the straightforward guy of our trio. "You knew," I asked Rudra with confusion.
"I knew. I am your best friend, and I also noticed you in the car when Parth was talking to her," he replied with a smirk.
Bastard, I muttered under my breath, and finished my coffee, stood up to leave, and took the extra cup of coffee that I ordered.
When I reached near the cafeteria gate, I heard Abhi's voice saying she is coming today.
I knew I had to go today, but before that, I had to meet our team coach, so I left to meet him before going to meet my sunshine.
