Hey gurl!!- I messaged Maya from my Instagram account. I spent a half an hour, trying to search her profile. And at last, found it in Tarun's following list.
I forgot he's Maya's bestfriend.
I was sitting along with Kirat in my room, in the name of study but we're busy in our phones.
I kept the mobile aside after messaging Maya.
'Oye, whom are you chatting with?' I said and tried to sneak in his phone.
He tried to hide the screen ,'What? Don't sneak like this.'
'What are you hiding? Who's her?'
'Is it necessary it's a girl?'
I gave him a sarcastic smile. 'When will you get mature?' He said and shook his head.
'When you will become intelligent.'
'I am intelligent.'
'Leave it.'
'What do you think? Only you are intelligent? Huh?'
'Can say.' I said and winked.
'Bhai, topping the class doesn't mean being intelligent.'
'Ohho.'
'Bro, this ghamand will take you nowhere.'
'Ok, stop it. Now I have to discuss something serious with you.' I said.
'Now what?'
'Firstly, stop being moody like girls.'
He gave a death stare to me. 'Ok. Ok.' I said, while laughing.
'Yaar, I got in love with a girl.' I said, without any difficulty.
He's the one with whom I had shared most of my secrets. And I never felt hesitated to share something with him. And nor did I feel hesitated while telling him that I liked Maya. He's my real homie.
'Tell something new. It's not a new thing with you.'
'What? I am serious this time, I swear.' I said, pinching my throat skin.
'So what do you want from me?'
'You know that.'
'I am not going to help you. Forget it.'
'Bhai, you are my only support.'
'Focus on studies. Girls will come and go.'
'She's not your Yashasvi.'
'Shut up. Don't mention her in front of me.'
'Ok, sorry, sorry. Please help me out, Kirat.'
'Do I look like a Tinder agent? Do what you want, don't bring me in.'
'I beg you brother, I love her a lot.'
'No.'
'So you are not helping me. Hmm?'
'Didn't you hear it? A big no.'
'Fine. Now wait and watch.' I showed him my big eyes.
'What?'
'I don't know. Please bhai, help me na.'
He laughed out loud. 'You are crazy.' he said.
'Whatever. You would help me na?'
'No.'
'Ok then, do all these sums by yourself. I'm also not going to help you.'
'Yaa...ar, fine, first of all, at least tell me who's that girl? You haven't told me her name yet, and you want me to help you.'
'Maya. She has become my good friend.' I gave a big smile.
'You got in kove with that new girl in the class? Waheguru! At least save one girl from her sight.' Kirat spoke in Punjabi, looking upwards.
'Why are you speaking like that? I don't like anyone except Maya.'
'What about Ankita?' Kirat asked.
'Arrey, that was just a small crush.'
'This too. I bet.'
'No bro, let me tell you what happened with me when I saw Maya.'
'No. No. Stop it. I know what you will say. "I felt butterflies in your stomach. I just kept seeing at her. Everything got blur, only she was visible."'
'How do you know all that? Have you also felt like that?'
'No. You said the same in the case of Ankita.'
'Ofcourse not. This isn't possible.'
'Shut up. I know you very well. Char din ka pyaar hai, abhi khatam ho jayega.'
'I didn't ask you to taunt me.'
'Whatever.' He gave me a dirty look,'Give me your phone.'
'Why?'
'Just give it.'
'I'm telling you, if there would be any mishappening, I'm going to kill you.'
'I'm not helping you. Go to hell.'
'Fine. Fine. Take this.' I said, handing him my mobile.
He opened Instagram in my mobile and opened the message tab.
There was a message from Maya- Hey boy!!
'Have you just started talking with her on insta?' he asked.
'Just fifteen minutes ago.' I said and grinned.
'I don't know if this would work.'
'What?'
'I have a plan but you have just started talking with her.'
'What is your plan?'
'See, don't get offended. Ok? I mean it consists of some fraudulence.'
'Fraudulence? I didn't tell you to rob a bank or hack a computer.'
'It's worse than that.'
'And what is that?'
'See, first I will send her an 'I love you' message. Ok?'
'Hmm.'
'Then, if she accepts it, there's nothing to worry about. And if not, you just tell her that it was a prank. Or tell her that Kirat took my phone and did all this shit.'
This guy is high on senses.
'You are totally crazy.'
'Arey, first try to understand. Now see, suppose she rejects you, now what will you do? Now she is your friend. No?'
'Yea. So?'
'What if your friendship also gets ruined after this?'
This guy is living in another world. DAMN!!!
I couldn't stop laughing after his explanation.
'When did you make this whole master plan?' I said while laughing.
'I planned this before proposing Yashasvi.'
'Bhai, you are genius.'
'See, who's more intelligent?'
'You, and only you.'
'Now see what I do.' He said and started typing a message.
'You told that there was a problem in the idea.'
'I will manage it too.'
'Wow.'
'Now, be silent.'
Maya, actually I have to tell you something. Don't get offended after reading this but the thing is that I love you. I love you a lot. I don't know when it happened. It happened suddenly in a very short span of time. Now, you are this beautiful that I fell in love with you in first sight. I know it sounds bit cheesy but yk it is what it is. I wanted to tell this to you from many days and today I have got the confidence to say this. Please Maya, accept my love.
Kirat typed it and clicked on send.
'Bhai, did you send it?' I said.
'Yes.'
My heartbeat got raised.
'Bhai, I am too scared.' I said, looking at that long message and Kirat one by one.
'Why are you scared? I am with you.'
'That's why I am scared.'
'Shut up. Now wait for her reply.'
I again read the message which Kirat typed.
'I am going to delete it.' I declared. He snatched away the mobile from my hand,'Are you mad? Nothing will happen. What are you fearing? You have the backup plan.'
I nodded and swallowed some saliva.
'You would go to hell, Kirat.'
'No problem, until you are my companion.'

             •
'She hadn't replied to it yet, bhai.' I told Kirat when he was leaving for his house.
'What can I do? Just wait for her reply and go on with the plan.'
'But I can't wait anymore.'
'Not any other choice,' he said,'Ok, so I am going now. Bye. Send me the screenshot of her reply when you would get one.'
'Yea.'

             •
'Jai, come and have your dinner.' Ma's voice disturbed my sleep. I fell asleep waiting for her reply. I fastly took my phone and opened Instagram.
Two messages from Maya-
Jai, I didn't expect that.
Let's talk about it in school.
