Torn Friendship

After saying this, she took her bag and left from there.

Whereas, I was very hurt after hearing her harsh words and said to myself: "It's good that Lena left here earlier, otherwise she would have hurt the most disappointed." As I said, I also leave that place.

The next day morning when I woke up from sleep and checked the notification, I saw that about 15 min ago, Lena texted me.

I opened it casually and read the message, it was written: "Shruti, please forgive me for yesterday's incident."

A smile broke on my face, after reading this. After what happened last night, I gave up on Bhumi as I was very much upset about her thoughts for us, at that time.

So Lena & I decided to stop thinking about her and move on in life.

After a while, I left home for school and usually used to walk to come towards school, where our roads met each other and like always Lena waited for me.

When I saw her, I happily went towards her and then both of us started moving towards school while joking and playing around.

Inside the classroom:

As soon as we reached our class, we saw that all the classmates were standing around a seat as if a film star had come there.

We both didn't show any interest in checking about this and sat in our seats while ignoring them as they did not exist there and started chatting with each other.

Our first-class starts at 8:30 am and according to our timetable, our 1st period was always started by our class teacher who taught maths.

As soon as the bell rang, we sat down in our seats and then Bhattacharya Sir came in, as always with a rude face.

He started harassing us like every day with his intimidating voice and seeing this we were normal, especially me and Lena because of which we were taking yawns in between but I felt that someone (a boy) constantly staring and staring at me, which made me very angry.

Even after about half an hour, when I saw (the corner of my eyes) that his eyes hadn't distracted even for a minute, the mercury of my anger intensified and when I looked at him, I found that he wasn't staring at me actually….

Rather Lena, who was a stranger sitting next to me, understanding that the unknown boy was looking with mixed emotion at my bestie, then I turned on the conservation mode toward Lena and this time as a way of replying to the answer I also started staring at him horribly, due to which he understood my signal, and within a second he twitching his eyes on the book.

But I continued scanning at him, which no almost classmates I knew, so I didn't know exactly who the boy was.

At that moment suddenly, sir stopped lecturing, due to which I became a little alert and slowly slowly…straightened my neck in front.

Actually, this was my old technique to avoid the teacher's centre of attention and I am always a success in this.

After that, Our class teacher does the account of that same boy.

"You! Come here!" --- Bhattacharya sir said.

When he arrogantly went towards and stand next to him, then sir began to speak his words.

"Everyone meet your new classmate and topper student of the Olympiad. Whom the world knows, now son! Give your introduction to your classmates."

After saying this, that new boy starts introducing himself: "Hello, my name is Vishal Roy. I….I Forget it! Thank you!"

While listening to him, I couldn't stop myself from dubbing him or you can say that after doing such a thing, poor Vishal couldn't going to say many words and was limited inside him, and while looking at me angrily, he sat in his seat.

On the other hand, ignoring his anger, my attention was on Lena's gesture, which was clearly stating that she is just like me: "Alien which comes from another planet".

And the reason is that everyone's eyes were eagerly watching his handsome face, whereas her periods of sleep were halfway while heading down.

Some time passed like this and at these times both of us felt that someone is following us wherever we go.

But I knew that it was not Vishal at least but someone, probably kidnappers..!?

Another unknown guy used to go all the time, wherever we reach.

We also have seen him once, at the park and he was not counted as a common person as it was clearly understandable by looking at his gestures that he belongs to a quite rich family.

One day we decided that we would go to the mall and according to our plan, we had done a lot of shopping that day so we were very tired so we went to the cafe area, inside that mall and after ordering some cold drinks, we do some rest.

Suddenly a boy came in front of us and sat while showing his richness, he was wearing black-brown mixed colour glasses on his face, looking at his clothes we could easily say that he was from a very luxurious family.

In fact, even before we knew that, we started scanning him with our big eyes while staring. Due to this we could hear his voice.

Seeing our faces, he smiled a little, removed his glasses from his eyes and looked at us like a gentleman and said: "Is…my face, so…handsome that you guys are looking at me without breathing?"

"No….Not at all! Where were we looking at you? We were scanning action of your wealth." I said.

Actually, I don't like over-smart boys at all and hate most guys who say their own goodness in front of others shamelessly.

That's why I told him no! but in reality, he was very handsome.

I started removing my gaze from his eyes and focused on Lena who was silently laughing while looking at us in turn, but I knew what she was thinking about, but I needed to stop her also, so I told her in a gesture to stop laughing and while ignoring them both, I started looking here and there.
