I reached home at around 10pm completely sobbing. My mom was very sure that he didn't accept the proposal.

Before she asked me what happened I said her not to ask me anything and leave me alone for few days. She didn't ask me anything about the meeting.

I fell onto my bed and saw my phone. There were about 5 messages.

9:35pm
Nihanth: I'm very sorry, I should have not said it so suddenly.

9:40pm
Nihanth: are you fine??

9:44pm
Nihanth: just text me after you reach home safely

9:49pm
Nihanth: let me know if you are okay.

9:55pm
Nihanth: gn and sorry if I hurt you.

I let out a deep sigh and texted him
9:56pm
"I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I'll call you when I'm in good mood. It was nice meeting you. Gn and TC. Bye"

9:57pm
Nihanth: thank god! That's a relief. I'll be waiting for your call.😃

I fell on my bed. And a king size bed in a 20*20 feet bedroom with a soft mattress and bedsheet seemed to be very suffocating.

The only thing that would help me to come out of the suffocation of thoughts is my sleep. But it comes only after synergistic action of crying.

In my cry I mumbled "I hate you Jay."
And you have an another friend in my hating list "I like you so much that I hate you Nihanth."

We didn't talk for about 2weeks. I was very busy with my project and more busier just thinking what's going on in my life.

Later one fine evening I received a call from Nihanth, asking me about the topic I left half started, I mean the topic which I didn't ACTUALLY start.

He asked whether we can meet. Though I was not so busy to meet him,I postponed it to next week only to gather all the courage.

We finally met after 3wks which seemed to be 3 seasons.

'3yrs back' I said
WAIT...Before I start I have few conditions.

Condition 1: you should not make fun of this later.

Condition 2: you are not going to show your dimple and disturb me.

Condition 3: follow 1 and 2 .. if not I'll not continue.

I continued the story without any interruption, not that he followed 1st and 2nd condition but rather because I ignored my 3rd condition.

After a deep sigh, I started..

I received a message from Facebook.

It was from an unknown person "Jay Jayan"

I opened the message and saw. "Hi ! I like your DP"

I went to his profile only to block him because I don't know him and there were no mutual friends.

But to my surprise I liked his profile which was full of pics of him with his friends. I have a weakness that,I like people with gang of friends.

I didn't want to reply to his message but his profile impressed me to press "thank you" On my screen as a reply.

As soon as sent the message a reply came as a shooting star "where are you from?🤔"

"You are too fast.. if I keep on talking to you I wouldn't read for my laaaast exam tomorrow.. can v chat tomorrow after 12:30pm?" I replied.

Jay: sure.. all the best 😬👍

****

I have done my exam well. But I was anxious if I will get a text from Jay.

As soon as I was out of examination hall I.. didn't check my phone , rather checked my answers.

After having confidence that I did well, I checked my phone if I had received any text from him.

But..
there was no text.

I was waiting for his text,so eagerly may be because he was the first boy whom I wanted to be my friend or may be because of the adoloscent harmones that were showing their role.

Not waiting any longer I texted him replying to his previous unanswered question.

***
Me:I stay at a place which is 620km away from you.

Just in a second I received a message.

Jay: I was waiting for your message.. and that was a intelligent answer 😂

Jay: so.. how was your exam bey?

Me: bey??????? I did it well

Jay: yea... Bey!!😋 I'll call my friends with that addition..

Me: who said I'm your friend? 😎

Jay: otherwise you would have not replied me today my dear bey 🤗

Me: hmmm.. okay bey.. let's be friends 🤗

Disturbing my story.. Nihanth's phone rang. He answered the call.

The way he answered, made me think it's urgent so I wanted to end up story short.

I said, in few days. no.. in a day we became very best friends.

Nihanth said "I will listen every single word from you. Don't make it short. We will meet tomorrow if you are free."

Till then think about me too, he said winking.

"Why did you prefer me out of all attractive, pretty girls out there?" I questioned.

He paused and said "you are addictive," with sincerity echoed in his words.

"What? Am I alcohol to be addictive! and that too we talked only for 2hrs, I remind you."

Cutting my words in half way he added "I would prefer you rather than alcohol."

" You are such a flirty jerk," I mumbled. "What? I can hear you"he said.

"Even I wanted you to hear!" I responded.

Interrupting our never ending conversation his phone rang, he talked and said " I should go now."

"Okay, I would never mind. Thanks for being patient," I said.

He left. I saw him leaving and he turned back to look at me.

I was like "please don't see me."

He walked few steps and again turned back with a stupid smile that would make my heart race, and then continued to walk out.

Even a single word from his mouth or a single look back again would make my heart flutter , fibrillate and eventually stop.

Thankfully he didn't turn back.

A/N
Did you ever had an eye contact with a person who made ur heart flutter. But you have to keep it and just act normal as though nothing is wrong??

I doubt if this feeling continues even after a person convey their love. Any idea?? Just comment. I need an expert advice😂😂
