"Why did you cry?" He asked her casually, his one hand on gear and other on the steering wheel. His focus completely on the road waiting for her to say something. He never liked anyone crying because of him and that too his student.

"Because of you" She replied looking at the passing trees, playing with her ring simultaneously. She just wanted to go home and sleep. She was feeling utterly stupid for the mishap that
happened today.

"For what do I owe this pleasure?" He asked feeling amused that how her mood swings change for every minute. He stopped the car at the ice cream parlour willing to have a clear chat with her.

"Let's have some ice cream" He replied removing the seatbelt and opening the car door without looking at her. He knew if he looks at her, she will throw tantrums for sure. Ignoring her he walked towards the parlour anticipating her to follow which she did willingly for the chocolate Ice cream.

"After you" He replied opening the glass door for her gesturing her to enter with a smirk which almost looked as a taunt to her. Asma gave her famous scowl looking at him. Stomping her foot she entered inside. He laughed seeing her antics. His laugh echoed in the almost empty parlour.

A waiter greeted them warmly with a smile of his own gesturing them to a table. After placing the orders She kept looking at the designs of the room, the table, the pictures hanging on the wall, the lights as if she is doing her interior course and had to submit her designs the next day while Adil kept looking at her with a smirk on his face driving her mad. She huffed feeling his eyes on her.

"Adil?" Gathering her courage, She asked him with a scowl trying to know his thoughts on her. She wanted to make a good impression in his eyes for her which seemed to be a tough task considering she already did a lot of damage to it.

"You should tell me what's the matter?" He asked her keeping his hands on the table looking at her with an intense gaze.

"Why didn't you come today?" She questioned him feeling how stupid she was to miss the function. She wouldn't have been in the place if she had gone to it.

"Was busy with other works. Wait, Why do you care?" He asked feeling confused about how did it affect her if he didn't attend the college. She isn't any principle that he has to give the reasons for his absence. She is just a student for him and they shouldn't cross that limits ever.

"I care because I didn't get to attend my family gathering function and had to come to college which went boring" She huffed feeling all the mishaps she encountered today. She wouldn't have imagined that she will spend a day in her crush's house and her crush’s brother will become a very good friend to her in the first place. Everything was so overwhelming to her.

"Sorry, I don’t get you" He questioned feeling confused looking at her meanwhile the waiter bought their Ice creams. Keeping them on the table he vanished towards the counter. Taking a scoop of her chocolate chip ice cream, Asma moaned forgetting about the surroundings.

"Is it so hard to understand that I skipped my family function just to gaze at you" She blabbered savouring her ice cream with a pleasant smile on her face meanwhile Adil choked on his ice cream, listening to her accusations.

"You came to college to look at me?" He asked angrily, his voice rising a decibel earning the glances from the other tables. Asma smiled awkwardly at them which made Adil conscious
reminding him of the surroundings.

"Listen Asma, you are a good girl. Don't spoil your life with all this Infatuation. You will forget me after some months" He replied calmly taking her hand in his. Asma was lost in feeling his touch, the way he held her hands was giving her butterflies. She felt complete warmth.

"I Love You Adil" She professed her love intertwining her hands with his, She looked at him with love. Her eyes were expressing her sincerity, her passion, her care, her immense love for him. He averted his eyes from her snatching his hand from hers fiercely. Standing up from the chair he left towards the counter to settle the bill, Asma followed him silently.
