Maya's pov~
"You know you can be fast at opening it" ...
"Relax! You're not going to faint that quickly".
"You know how hard it is for me to control myself from coming into your class and snatching your lunchbox".
"Is that so? "
"Yes, baby! Like whenever you say you made your lunchbox today ..i just can't focus on anything else except eating that food". Aditi said as she quickly picked up the other piece of wrap from my lunch box as she ate and frowned.
"What happened is it not good" -
In between bites, she spoke. "Shut up, it is the best; if you were a man, I would have married you because of how amazing, delectable, thrilling, exquisite, heavenly, and luscious food can be made by you ."-
"Well, it is not even that good," I remarked while I was eating my lunch.
No seriously, the sauce and mayonnaise are incredibly delicious. Which brand of mayonnaise do you use?
"Well, I made it at home," I admitted, a little embarrassed because I am not that confident in my culinary skills.
I was bored last week during our week-long vacation, so I picked up my phone and started scrolling. I came across the mayonnaise recipe and decided to make it.
Wow if I started to be this type of bore my mother would be on n clouds nine . All I do is sleep or use my mother's decades-old enemy -
"You use your mother's enemy??" i said with confusion.
She squinted her eyes at me and uttered, "Ugh, the phone, baby girl, the phone."
You dirty-minded Maya tch tch -
Like you are not drooling over that TV serial actor ansh -Akash yes -Akash
Ssh, do not say it out loud; if my boyfriend came and heard it, he would not show it, but he would judge himself.you remember last time when we were talking about celebrity crush and i said you know he even got that type of hairstyle-
""Okay, I don't want to hear about your boyfriend. I'm here to talk to you," I said, waving my hand to change the topic. The last thing I want to talk about is relationships. I don't know, but the word "relationship" causes a different level of discomfort. Maybe it's because I remember the relationships I have seen in my family.
Well did you see Elina's new picture she posted yesterday -
Aditi was speaking when I heard his voice "his damn voice" across the football ground shouting at his fellow team members as I rolled my eyes.
Don't tell me you are getting an orgasm from his voice.
ADITI !!
Ok ok, chill baby i was just kidding.
Like this?
Uh but seriously you complain about him every time but he is known as the perfect student, the gentleman-
"He is just good at acting and all, "i said while shrugging.
No, he is sweet, I suppose... I am obviously on your side, but remember last year when I was cheering for our school football team and Vanya.
yes, that Miss Pick me, the coach said I would be in the center,
so later while practicing she pushed me provocatively, but Atharv was like "You can drop the act" and she started her -"being the most innocent person ever drama again",
so he reported it to the coach, and she was kicked off the cheerleading team...and he also bandaged me.
But Vanya is his girlfriend, right?
Ah, what no that's why I said try to interact with your classmate.. he is in your class but you don't know anything at all he never dated anyone till now...
Though she was correct in one aspect that I should talk to my classmate-I was unable to do so as she continued to discuss his relationship and other things. I had trust issues in fifth class because of my ex best friend Reha, which led to having no friends at all until I met Aditi in ninth class. Aditi is a social butterfly, and sometimes I get nervous thinking about what if they also made fun of me like my old classmate.
"Are you here?" Aditi said making me snap out of thoughts .
Ah ofcourse and ...i guess i know the reason why he is bothering me -
Well I was talking about another thing but ok tell me ...
He was not doing well on tests when he first started at this school last year, but he was doing well in the viva. During our tests, which were held before the final exams, my bench mate was chuckling and saying
Like "Oh atharv if you continue like this you will fail ... look here Maya never loses when you joined our class we thought that maybe the new student would be smart and finally Maya will lose her spot but you disappointed us ...
"I told him to stop - saying 'hey, stop teasing him, everyone has different willpower'.. and just told him that if he needs help with anything, he can ask me. I think he took it as an attack on his ego because when the results came out and he came first, he said, 'How does it feel now not being number one? You're not laughing anymore, hm?' He walked away with that disgusting smile he still gives me."
I slammed my fist on the table.
"I was not making fun of him. Why would I even do that? I know how it feels."
You are telling me quite early...but were you really laughing at him ?
"Of course not... but he gets on my nerves every single time."
"Who is getting on your nerves, sweetheart?"
His husky, soft voice caught my attention. I turned around to see him standing behind me, his hair slightly damp from sweating. His tan skin glowed in the sun as he raised his eyebrow at me. I cleared my throat."
"You .. you are the one or who else " i said closing my lunch box.
"That's good because I'd be so jealous if someone else gets my spot," he said with a mocking tone and a not-so-innocent smile.
Oh seriously atharv why are you here now ...as much as i remember i scored the highest at this week's tests ..
Oh my, calm down. Our class teacher just called me and told me there will be an interschool debate competition. She asked me to choose one from our class, and I chose you-
I think we argue with each other too much. Our team may not be enough to compete with others.
""Why are you shy to go on stage?" He spoke with a teasing tone, his eyes staring at me as if they were pitying me.
Damn~..
Fine iam in -
"He confidently stated, 'I knew it... I know we will make such a good team, darling.' His smug grin and casual demeanor only fueled my frustration. It took all my self-control to not punch him. No one plays with my mind like he does."
"Iam not your darling - "i said glaring at him.
"Aw ok don't be angry we are team right " the fake innocent smile of his ugh.
Just for once atharv can you shut up like a good boy -
"Huh?" Aditi who was enjoying our bantering looked at me with 'what the fuck "look .
What -? atharv looked at me with a little shocked face his ears little pink.
"Are you blushing?" I stated .
What - i mean no - no why will i-
Then why your ears?*i said as now I leaned closer his eyes widen a little as he now walked backwards.
"My ears are fine, just fine," he whispered as he ran his fingers through his hair.
"Aw no they are not - you look like a tomato."
Aditi snickered while I grinned and moved closer.
"Uh - I- I have no idea what the hell you saying"
"I said are you blushing because I said baby- boy "...
N- no .. that's so -
"That's so what hm -" there was slight blush on his cheeks and ears he looks so stupid .
I - have training ..I'll see you tomorrow for competition information and all.
Saying that he ran away ...? Dude ..?
