Listen To My Stupid Heart ♡

4. He Believes Me

Oh no. He is behaving like a real teacher. I thought it will be more fun and I could spend more time with him. But he is acting like a real teacher. 🥺

" I'm asking you something. "

" Oh yeah yeah.. Almost completed. " I lied.

" Okay then I'll help you with your doubts at first. Tell me one by one. "

" I can't understand integration. " Well, my whole math has ruined already, all the chapters are going out of my head so I just took a name.

" So you must need to learn differentiation at first. Can you do that? "

" Y.. Yeah. " Why am I feeling so embarrassed to talk?

" Okay then we'll revise the differentiation today at first. "

What revise? I don't even know my syllabus properly....

" I'll give you problems and you have to solve them. And remember each one is important for boards. I'll give you the important ones only. " I just nodded. Only God can save me.

He served me the first question. I looked at the figure very carefully but no idea came in my head. It's obvious, I know I can't solve it. I think God is also not gonna save me 😖

" Arini leave that pen. Why are you chewing it? " He removed the pen from my mouth suddenly. I didn't even understand when I took it in my mouth.

" Solve it. "

I again nodded and looked at the paper dumbly. I never knew this teaching session will be this hard to me. I just wanted to spend time with my crush but mathematics is being kabab mein haddi between us.

" What's so nice on the paper that you're keep admiring? " Shrey asked making me jerk from my place. He raised his brows. I think I should spill it out.

" This is the easiest one Arini. Do it. " He added.

" Actually I always practice the hard ones. Easy ones are easy so I can always do them but at first I prefer to do the hard ones. " I don't know what I just blabbered. 🙂

" I have never heard this kind of logics. " He gave me an 'are you serious' look. I passed a nervous smile.

" Okay then I will give you hard one this time. " He started looking for another problem.

" Hain... "

( what)

" What? "

" No. Nothing. "

" Hm do this one. "

Main toh fas gyi 🙂...... ( I'm trapped) . I kept looking at that figure again n again. I suddenly remembered mom's words. She always scolds me for not studying. I wish I have listened to her. Now I have to be embarrassed in front of my crush.

" Are you doing this purposely Arini? "

" Huh. "

" How much time will you take? It's already 10 minutes and we have not done even one problem. "

" Actually I........ I can't do this one. " My face almost became blue with shame I guess.

" Why? You said you---"

" I have not practiced this chapter from a long time. So I forgot the hard ones too. I will revise it next day. " I didn't let him complete his sentence and served mine.

" Then we'll do some other chapter. Tell me which one you can do." Fir se fas gayi.

" Uh shrey but--" " I won't listen anything except study related things. " Came his sharp and straight reply.

" Why are you behaving like a real teacher?" I could not control anymore and asked.

" What am I supposed to do then? You're here to study. And I'm your teacher. "

" But I thought it would be fun---"

" Arini, you can't do anything for your fun only. Everything is good at it's place and I will not allow any disturbance in study. You're here to study so you will only study. I don't want to listen anything else. "

" Shrey you know I don't like to study. " I still whined.

" Then why did you tell me to teach you? " He raised his voice. I think I have made him angry now.

" Cause I like you. " I looked down and pouted.

" Liking me will not bring you good marks. " His voice became lower a bit. I could understand.

" Who wants good results? " I looked up this time to find him looking at me.

" Then what do you want? "

I smiled and said, " You. "

He looked at me without uttering anything for sometime. I kept smiling looking at him. Yes, I'm not that shy sometimes. I thought the atmosphere is becoming romantic now. What will my hero say?

" Solve it. " He passed me the pen & paper with a poker face.

Ruined the mood!!!?!!

" I told you I can't. " I said annoyingly.

" Name those chapters that you can "

" Actually my teacher has finished the whole syllabus but I didn't learn anything. " I looked down and murmured.

A silence for 5 minutes......
Maybe 10 minutes...

Slowly I looked up to see his reaction. He was looking at me blankly. Okay I will die today.

" Who told you to take humanities with math? "

Seriously you wanna know? It was most hideous question. My parents, even teachers were curious because I was never good at math but I still took it.

" I have seen your math in the other class. I thought you would not take math. Why did you take? "

" Actually.... " I gulped. " I.... Actually.. "
* sigh *
" Cause you love math. "

" I'm not joking Arini. I'm serious. "

Who said I am not?

" Yaarr, I'm also serious. " I still looked down. I don't have the courage to see his reaction.

He banged on the table making me flinch all sudden. " Do you know how will you pass? After somedays you'll have pre-boards. Then boards. Tell me how will you pass? Tell me. "

" I.... I know relations and functions and algebra. I think I... I can pass... "

" Oh so you are happy with the pass marks only?" Oh no he is strict. How will I cope up with him after our marriage? At this very serious moment, I'm imagining our marriage. Woahh!!!

He sighed. " Arini , you should not have done this. What will happen when aunty... "

" Don't say anything to my mumma please. " I looked up and said as soon as possible. "If my mumma gets to know about this, I don't know what will happen with me. "
My face held the pure fear.

He sighed again. " Arini, we will start the calculas part at first. You have to give your 100%. Promise me, you will do it. " He held my hand. I looked at our hands with big eyes.

" Arini promise me. I know you can do it. "

" I believe you. "

He believes me.

" I will do it. " My voice became heavy... But I smiled... Shrey believes in me, he has hopes for me.

I'll do it. Just for him.
