**Just You**
"Kria, what is her name??"
"Why do u want her name??", she said making her eyes wide.
"Rey", she complained.
"Nothing...she looks little different from others thats why"
****
That was the first time she found him amused in another girl. She loved Rey and he loved her too. They were having a healthy and newly cherishing relationship. The slighest doubt in her despited more and more by the passing time.
****
The next time, she saw him near the college entrance in his car. She even avoided even the smallest error of her thoughts and moved towards him with a wide aching grin. Her heart was broken when he drove off stalking the way of the girl he once asked.
She met him in the respective evening in their usual location near the gardens of her house. He didnt possess a new behaviour instead he greeted her in the same way he used to. They ordered for masala chai and sat on the nearby bench. She maintained to be calm unlikely.
"Kria, are you fine??"
She just nodded him to say she was alright.
"Are you feeling well??"
He enquired contacting her forehead and neck with his hand to check if she was having a temperature. She was perfectly normal. He just smiled and engulfed his view on the mobile screen which flashed a message.
She was no much interested in behaving strangely and moreover she didnt want to built her own suspicions and become a hurdle in their own relationship.
She brushed her fingers on his palm and holded his hand which rested on her thigh. He just gave her another smile in return.
"Rey..", she said crossing the fingers over his trying to seek his attention.
"Kria, where does that girl live??"
Not Again was all she could groan to herself.
"Which girl??"
She swallowed the lump down her throat noticing the glitter in his eyes.
"The same girl about whom I asked you before"
His answer was an expected one but still she was anxious to know the reson behind his interest, she felt a pang of jealousy hover her..
"I dont know Rey...she is just my classmate"
She was speaking normal though her voice was coming out hoarse.
"Her name is Taani right.."
She looked at him in disbelief. Getting to know the name was an very easy job but still he wasnt the type of boy who was fond over girls. It took total of one year and some months for their relation too to come in a track.
She nodded her head in acceptance shivering mildly.
"Kria, can you pls find out her address for me?? Pls..pls..pls"
That was it, she was waiting for this second not to come and here he was asking her about the info regarding another girl.
She stood up annoyed and dispensated.
"Rey, if you had call me here for talking about her then Im sorry I have many other works"
She pronounced the words in a stern tone so that it doesnt come out rude,
"Come on Kria...can't you do that one help for me"
He was standing right behind her waiting for a favoured response.
"Rey, I will talk to you later"
She gave him a formal hug before descending down the way. He called her by the name several times but she ignored them. Her eyes flooded with tears as she wiped them all the way to her home.
She informed her mom that she had already taken a meal and not to disturb. She flickered the lights off , fell on her bed and slept unknowingly thinking of the way Rey was fond of the newbie in her college.
Night, 1.20 a.m.
Her hands slammed on the bed until she found her mobile. There were 22 missed calls and a number of messages. The majority of the calls were from Rey. She thought to call him back but stopped to check out the messages.
"Kria, lift the call"
"Kria pls lift the call"
"Atleast reply to the messages"
"Im waiting down"
"Your brother is freaking me out here"
"Kria if u r in and hadnt slept then come out"
"Idiot...can't u keep a blanket for yourself...call me in the morning after you wake up...sweetdreams..^_^ Love you..."
She smiled hard feeling the blanket on her. She used th washroom and came out. She moved on either side of the bed to catch up a sleep which was way too far from her. She played with the mobile rolling it over between her thumb and forefinger. She withheld it eventually and called him up. He lifted after the first trial.
"Hey...why are you up now??"
"Im not feeling sleepy Rey.."
"..."
"What are you doing??"
"Near the beach with my friends"
"Rey...I was your friend before I became your girlfriend...remember"
"Boys...just a small hangout"
"Hmm.."
"Rey, I want to talk to you"
"Now??", he understood in which way she meant to.
"Yes...right now!!"
****Silence****
"Im drunk.."
"I will meet you in the morning", he added.
"No...now!!"
"Ok...get down after I give a missed call"
"Cool..bye"
"Bye"
