The Way You Smile

chapter ten

"Losers say hello," She says on the phone. 

"What do you want, you mama fucking bitch? is what legends say," I swayed my ruffled her. "Anyways I just wanted to know if you are alive,"

"Come on, say what you have been dreading?" I squeal. "What do you want?"

"I said it! I'm just checking up on you!" 

"Ok, Now you know that I'm alive. Get the hell out of my phone!" I say nonchalantly.

"Wait, wait, wait. I just wanted to know how things went around with you and your mom? Wanna stop by Mrs. Geetha's? We could order some mojitos and chat for a while?" She talks continuously, I mean that's Anu's thing. She'll continue to talk until she gets what she wants.

"Can't, gotta have lunch with mama bear,"

"Oh come on, don't be such a baby, Aditya!" She sings through the phone. "One last time? For a cute Anu bear?"

"Not in a million years, babe. I gotta go. Bye," Cool. Cool. You gotta keep up with the trend buddy.

It's been five freaking hours! I've been studying very, very hard, yes. I should have developed  two or three gray hairs by now. So I decided to give myself a break by wandering off in the streets.

And that's when a call came for me. From the old Vivaan. "Yelloowwww," I sing super excitedly. 

"Hey bro!" This is the Vivaan I know. "Did you watch the ad?"

"Nope, not exactly till you say what exactly the ad is about," I continue to maintain my image as the clever crazy hot guy.

"Funny bro, I meant the one about the opening of a new restaurant near your neighborhood." He says cracking up.

"Yes, I've seen it," I replied. 

"Perhaps, do you wanna check that out? Only if you are free," He laughs.

I laughed to his laugh wondering how his brother's laugh would be. "Are you asking me out on a DATE?"  I chuckle .

"Maybe," He says in a teasing voice. "Okay,will meet you there in twenty," He hangs up 

At the twentieth minute, I got a call from him where I was in my panty and pajamas. Girls need time to dress up!

I was walking down my stairs and again got a notification from Vivaan. Boy.

I looked up at myself in the mirror which is kept in the entrance and smiled at myself. Can't wait to go to college. Oh wait, who keeps a mirror at the reception of their houses? Well, my mother does. Superstitious beliefs.

I roared my car and went off straight to the newly opened shop where I found Vivaan, who was not alone. But was in company with his brother, Vedant.

It was a dark night and Vivaan’s thoughts were all over the place. His brother compelled him to get out of his idiotic snail house, to eat something out. 

He agreed with a little persuasion. Vedant was ready to go out after studying for zillion seconds. But he can't simply nod and scoff at his brother's decisions, for he is the big brother.

Vivaan was getting impatient on the twentieth minute of calling Aditi. He didn't inform the company of Aditi to his brother, however.

When Aditi had reached the cafe, she, as usual, checked twice that she had locked the car perfectly and climbed off. 

The couple can't just meet  as we like. That's the destiny for human existence. So As soon as she touched the door knob of the cafe, a call came for her. To be specific, her ringtone was ' Sing in the rain,'

She quickly swayed her phone into her ears and spoke, "Ma! I JUST CAME HERE!" Oh my god! Did she just yell at her mom? The consequences are going to be worse!

She nods for a moment and squeals, "Wait, what? No he didn't!" Her squibble eyes widened for a second before it came back. "Fu- I meant, F u t u r e," she spells out for her mom.

There wasn't a moment before when she decided to go home and to bail off with Vivaan. 

While she was driving, she pulled up her Bluetooth and called Vivaan. "Hey, Hi uhm- Vi, My brother is in town and I have family drama," She lets out a chuckle. "I'll treat you there by tomorrow, I promise."

He hesitated for a moment and talked. "No problem, then tomorrow? Pinky promise?" He begs like a child before chuckling.

Aditi grinned before letting out a laugh. " Sure, drama boy,"

"Kay gotta go," He says while his brother talks, " What happened? Vi, Anyone joining us?"

“Ah.. no. Not at all. Just us”
