My Only Love

Chapter 14 : Confused...

I smiled tried to, shaking my head,"no I don't dislike you, I'm sorry for being rude"

She smiled back and looked relieved, "I always wanted a true friend I never had any. Anyway, You look like a cool person"

My eyes widened I pointed a finger to myself, "me ? Cool?"

She nodded, "yes you, I like your style I like your not giving a damn, attitude -"

Oh I tried to not feel so flattered but yeah I agree I can be cool ha.

She proceeded on, "I will not mind having you as my friend and since we'll be most of the time together, I can teach how to do makeup properly"

"Hey!,"  I shot her a look I know how to do.

She chuckled pointing at my kajal(liner I guess)  smeared upwards and that was not the eye portion. Okay I'm not that good.

My eyes like always travelled front both Abhi and Krish were looking back. Krish waved gaining our attention.

I blocked Pratiksha's vision by inclining towards right.

I asked nonchalantly, "by the way do you like anyone here?"

Furrow appeared on her forehead as she made a thinking face

"Any boy it's your first day I don't expect if you didn't?" I made it more clear.

Then she nodded slowly and even blushed.

Okay..

"Umm..I like the one sitting in front"

It took literally every cell in my body to be calm

"Who?"I pretended to be confused.

She looked up through her lashes, "the one sitting near Krish"

Abhii?

I didn't hate Myra I guess but now I can't say anything.

Grumbling I replied, "he's taken"

"Oh" she said softly. Well at least Krish was safe I sighed.

Then she blurted suddenly, "Krish isn't even bad  moreover I liked him the very first time," she tilted her head grinning.

••••••••••

I reached home late because the duty required not little time. But A COMPLETE ONE HOUR AFTER THE SCHOOL GETS OVER.

I was exhausted taking a quick shower , I ate no correct that stuffed my lunch like I was hungry for ages.

Mummy came down frowning, "you went early and came late?"

Okay not again.

I nodded, since I can't speak with my mouth full.

Analysing her facial expression, she was again in that lecture mood. But I wasn't to take it second time.

At once I gulped down water and made a move to leave.

"Kyra when will you get serious?" She said annoyingly, getting my attempt to escape.

I sighed finally looking at her, "I'm very tired I need to sleep, I can't talk right now"

She narrowed her eyes at me, "tell me why were you late?"

I gritted my teeth now irritated , " I was with Krish Okay-

"Again that boy just tell me Kyra, you  love him or what? that you are always tailing around him!"

My head snapped at her, " If I did ,then what?"

Honestly, I wanted to know what did she think.

She was taken back my statement composing herself she spoke, "then I will say get over it because that won't be accepted. You are a child what do you know about love? study and do what your supposed to do. Don't get fanciful about this love thing,"

That's It I had enough I ran upstairs angrily, dejection taking over my body.

I don't need you to tell me mummy how fanciful this love is. But I didn't expect you to make it seem like I was some child yearning for a fairytale dream.

Dropping down onto the bed. I sniffed.

Maybe people were right I was acting like a child, I should stop this infatuation.

One sided love had never been successful.

Ae dil hai mushkil movie flashed in my mind. That was a shitty movie. Like anything was happening around. Karan Johar should really start upgrading his movies script. All nonsense he showed there.

But the message was true. Unrequited love has always been difficult, very few survives it. And I wasn't included in them.

I squatted up, it's time to really move on yes I'm serious now.

I grabbed my pillow Krish making it face to me.

I stared it imagining it to be Krish.

I cleared my throat, "I love you Krish ,"

I gazed at the pillow like what was I expecting to say I love you too.

Rolling my eyes at myself I went on, "yes like real love. Since you got admission from that very day.
Yup crazy nah? yes I am.  You ask why I love you? "

I laughed, "it won't be complete in a day actually a month would be also less. Psycho nah? Yes I am.

Okay but since you asked and I'm in a really mood of complementing you so here we go..
I love your careless grin, your shinning eyes with mischief, your super silky hair I know you use some special brand so don't lie. I love it when you frown. Your honest heart, your ever ready self to help anyone. You always on, for any prank. You cheering me up when I'm sad. Making me laugh when I'm crying. Making me Crying with laugh, when you do something funny. Your countless trying to make me try non veg when you yourself are vegetarian...

I told you the list is endless and maybe listing it, I would fall  in love with you again and that we don't want right?

Okay let's talk about how my heartbreaking series started...
I was a goner when you said you are cute Kyra and ruined it by adding we'll be good friends. I smiled back sadly. Agreeing to you we'll be good and friends.
And we are. But something in me okay not something it's everything in me that stupid idiot thing would always want for more.

I can't keep up with this friend boundary Krish. It's very painful for me seeing you flirt with some other girls and saying you liked Pratiksha. I'm a human a hopelessly in love human, I can't take this love further alone. I need you to share it with me and since that's nearly impossible who am I kidding it's definitely impossible. I'm dropping it here now this instance -" I choked but continued blinking back the tears.

"The burden is unbearable I don't have any option but to free myself from it and move on" I glanced up from my wet eyelashes.

"What!! Why didn't you tell me" A voice shot me alert I swirled back almost losing my balance noticing him near the door .

Oooooooooo
