The Rich Girl's Crush

Chapter 21- A perfect Voice note

--I knew this about Ashnoor though. She used to take singing classes when she was little. Her parents were very fond of music and Ash had taken after her mother and her piano skills along with her father and his guitar.
She knows how to play Vaaste on both instruments and it's not a surprise to me that she can sing Dhvani's part Perfectly!
But something about this duet just ticks me off. The words. There voices.
They sound too perfect together. Their voice notes literally sound better together than the song itself!
I feel my hands tremble. Why the hell. Something just cracks in me.
They come towards the end of the song

"Vaaste jaan bhi doon
Main ganwa imaan bhi doon
Kismaton ka likha mode du"
And then Ashnoor and Sid to the cliche twirl, fall and catch pose as they both share a glance for a second and that just crosses my limit.
Something cracks in me and I can feel my grip on my phone suddenly lose. It drops to the grains along with one of my involuntary tear drops. Oh Shit!--
--I simply turn around and run out of the room to the girls bathroom ignoring everything around me including Faisu's "Avu". I just run out and away to the bathroom, teach uncontrollably pouring down my eyes as I see the flashbacks of them singing together playing in my head.
I walk straight into an empty cubicle where I rewatch the video and then a new emotion surges through me. Anger. Pure sheer anger. I feel like literally breaking down the toilet door and burning down the building.
"I wish Ashnoor didn't exist!"

I walk out of the cubicle to wash my face as I face myself in the mirror.
Shit! What the fuck are you saying Avneet! Oh god something is wrong with your brain!
It's fine. Take deep breaths and calm yourself down. You just need rest.
I splash the cold water several times on my face before I finally adjust my hair and take a quick mirror selfie with a fake smile that I'm an expert at conjecturing at this point.
And that's going up on my Insta!

I walk out of the bathroom with a smile only to find a rather worried Faisu.
Faisu: you alright!? What's wrong?
Avu: oh it's nothing. Just cramps.
Faisu: oh. Must be painful.
Avu: trust me they are.
-- I put an arm around Faisu as he returns it by putting an arm around my shoulder as we both walk down the corridor together. Several girls and Guys gasp and stare as we walk down the hallway back to our room.
Fame! I swear I can hate it sometimes.-

We walk into the room together and I catch Jannat's awkward glimpse as she sees us. Just for a second I see her smile drop until it immediately returns again just as it was and she gestured for me to come over, which I gladly do!

Jaan: so... what happened?
Avu: oh nothing. Just cramps. You know how badly those can hurt!
Avu: so what did I miss?
Jaan: oh not
Jaan: jeez yaar. Bad timing. You wanna go home?
-- I take one quick last glance at Sid and Ashnoor. They're still together with Arishfa laughing uncontrollably at the corner.--
Avu: yeh. I could really use some rest.
Jaan: true. I'm pretty sure we all could. And besides it's late so we should return before you're beloved Aadaya starts to come to conclusions about your whereabouts.
Avu: Oh no! I totally forgot about her! We have to return ASAP!
Jaan: you got me! ARISHFA! ASHNOOR! We gotta go. NOW!
Ash: seriously! Now?! But-
Avu: no NOW!
Ash: whoa. Ok. You're in a bad mood.
Avu: yeh. I just need some rest.
~~~~~~
I give Faisu one lost lasting hug before we part in front of our cars and I hop into Arishfa's car.
I look back at the boys one last time as Faisu gives me a quick 'call me' sign and I give a childish nod.

We drive off in silence for a while until we have around like 10 minutes before I reach home. And that's when Ash speaks up.
Ashnoor: I never once thought that Siddhart could sing!
Jaan: Right! Who knew?!
Arishfa: yeh. His voice honestly is amazing!
Preet: His and Ashnoor's voice in Vaaste go so fricking well! Looks like Ash finally found someone to do duets with! (Nudging Ashnoor in the stomach)
Avu: (clear anger in my voice) could you guys Shut it! Im feeling very annoyed right now and need some SERIOUS sleep! So stay silent!
With that I lean my head against the back of my seat as I close my eyes, still awake.
I can feel Jaan come close to my ear. Ugh what does this girl want now!?

Jaan: I know that you don't have cramps. And I also very clearly know the reason why do are so annoyed. There's no running away from me.
You can't hide anything from me and even you know that. I swear Avneet Kaur! This is far from over.

--Ugh! Jaan! This is what I hate about you. The fact that you can read me like an open book! I can't hide no shit from you. Not even feelings that I myself are not sure about the existence of!
I want to tell her that whatever she's thinking is not real! But I know that every single word that she's saying is real. She's like my other half.
I know she can just sense it.

She can sense both my insecurity and my jealousy.
