Ordinary Person
(Anirudh Ravichander)

Author's pov_

Aditi was just completely lost in duets. She thought too highly of herself! She took maximum rest and was feeling epic. She was happily playing with her messy hair, when the phone rang.

She smiled seeing Vivaan's name on the screen. "Vi, how ya been?"

He shrugs before answering."I'm mad with you,"

"Well, everybody, Ahem every girl goes mad about me," She paused. "The phrase you used is wrong,"

He shakes his head in dismay. "Anyways, How'd you do your exam?"

She enthusiastically replies but gets aware of the act and settles for good.

"So how about today? Think of the promise you made to this little boy,"

She thought about leaving her cosy bed and bedsheet and hesitated for a moment. "Let's meet at eleven, Glarites'. And the bill is on me,"

"Sure, And you can bring company if you want,"

Aditi was aware that Anu had gone to see her grandma back in the countryside and Aryan was five hundred miles away.

"Nah, I'm single,"

Vivaan laughs to which Aditi shrugs. "See ya at eleven,"

"I'm here," Aditi climbs off from her car and begins her slay walk.

"Walk straight and then to your left," Vivaan commands.

Aditi's POV:

I am at the Glarites which Vivaan has leeching me to come. Despite his leaching, I managed to dress up well. I threw on sandal denim with black fits.

He told me to come straight and take a left, and I did.

What the fuck? Why am I seeing him here? Oh shit, Vedant's Vivaan's elder brother. And that's why he told me to bring company, for, he is bringing one! Shit, shit, shit.

If I could see my face, I would know. It could be like the face of a demogorgon or something.

It's this feeling, like I wanna be around him all the time. I still do. But, I can't, cause it's just- I'm so nervous. It’s exhausting. Plastering a smile is all that I can do before he slits my throat. That's what my situation is.

It's the third time I'm seeing him. Three times of getting butterflies all over my gut. Three times of getting blushed. Three times of being unnervingly self-conscious.

If I 'fess to my biology teacher about this, she'll make a comment : "This is the job of hormones, child. Don't worry."

But damn it. Screw hormones. I can't. I might wanna cancel this meet up with Vivaan again. Shit, It's the second one in a row. I shouldn't give up on myself. I wouldn't. That's how my mama bear raised me. I shouldn't be afraid or affected by people, unless there's a crack on my part.

Let's manoeuvre, Aditi Varma!

I wore my black Louis Vuitton glasses quickly and stood in a corner of the cafe and took out my phone.

"HOW DO I MAINTAIN MY GIG IN FRONT OF A GUY?"

Shit! Shit! I was going insane already.
What's this boy did to me?

By indulging in all these activities, I forgot to notice who was standing in front of me.

Before I could realise, he bent down to me and said, "Aditya, come on!"

Dumb. He is Vivaan not Vedant. I waverly wiped down my drool and tried to act normal. But god knows, Aditi Varma is not desti- heck she’s not built to act Normal.

Without coming out of the fantasy of Vedant, I bumped into someone. Shit once again, yay! "I am really sorry,"

I mumbled before seeing who that person was, but to my horror, It was the devil himself. The devil. He rolled his eyes, a playful glint visible in his eyes, and leaned a bit forward.

“No worries, that keeps happening all the time!”

Heat. Once fucking again cover my face and I feel the tip of my ears burn. That fucking feeling of butterflies. Why can't they go to a new flower field filled with flowers and not my damn stomach?

Vivaan comes to my rescue and I feel a Little at ease seeing him.

"Heya bad guy, 'sup?" Vivaan sees his brother standing a few yards from me. "He always bumps into someone, his nickname is bump shit,"

Vivaan gestured me to the seat while introducing Vedant for the second time as if I forgot. Huh not in a million years, for he belongs to me. Ah this shit again. Come on Aditi!

"He is Vedant, my brother? You two had met like a week before, remember?"

I tried really really hard to enclose the reddish blush and smile within my mouth. Bruh, seriously? How could I ever forget him? But instead,

"I don't, sorry Vi. You told me it was your bro but that night it was very dark, I couldn't see him clearly," Why does It have to be hard?

I let out a small smile to him, trying to signify to continue the act of- not knowing each other. If Vedant is bump shit for bumping into every one, I don't want to give Vivaan a chance to nomenclate me.

"I know you!" Vedant exclaims which was the rarest thing a human being could see in his lifetime. "Did you give it to her?" He asks flatly.

"Woah woah, what the hell is happening here?" Vivaan intervenes to which I sigh.

"Let me explain it clearly. On the day of the party, it was foggy so we couldn't see each other. And on the exam day which is yesterday He approached me with this hallticket of this girl named Aditi,"

"Who is his twin sister," Vedant without flinching joins the conversation. "What, am I correct?" He says perplexed to the face changing act of mine. That one inspired me.

"Damn yes,"

"Bro's got a twin?" Vivaan starts to tickle me and I blab out of breath. Like always, the guardian angel saved me! ANANYA NAIR!!!

"I gotta attend this call buddy," I managed to put these words together to make a sentence. "Girlfriend,"

"Uh oh," Vivaan says, backing off with his hands raised in a surrender gesture. There was a moment of hesitation and hurt in his eyes, but a hand carved into his fingers and got him back to reality. And it was his. Vedant's.

Before I attended the call, I marched outside cause She would scream the hell out of my name Aditi.

"Aditiiiiiiiiiiii" Anu Nair squealed from her phone in the county while I turned off the volume. She swallowed a mic when she was young.

"Wassup bubblegum bitch?"

"Just checking up on my so-called boyfriend," she says, making herself comfortable in her grandma's chair. "Any news from Vedant & co?"

"Boyfriend is fine, if that's what you wanna know," I squeal, peeking through the glass doors for any signs of them. "Yeah yeah, I'm at Glarites'. With them."

"Oh my god! Don't tell me that you are with Vedant the di-"

"Yeah I am. I am. And I won't hesitate to kill you for calling him a dick," I say sternly. "And it’s not what y-"

"Will you look at that!” She exclaimed, cutting me off. I frown, she places a hand on her chest panting dramatically.

“My best friend since ages is threatening to kill me for a new boy! The betrayal! I cannot live with th-”

“Shut up,” I snapped, rolling my eyes. She quickly gains her posture back, and squints at the screen, tilting her head.

“What?” I ask

“Someone’s spying on us my dear,” she replied, shaking her head in horror. Her eyes were wide as she continued shaking her head slowly. Yeah yeah drama queen.
