“You don’t have to change a thing about yourself. I think your quiet and introspective personality is one of the things that really makes you stand out,” I told her playfully as I gently flicked her forehead.
She smiled at my comment, and let me tell you, her smile just melts my heart.
I can see she’s probably wondering how I figured it out, but it’s pretty obvious or maybe I noticed her too much.
She’s reserved and doesn’t get involved in every little situation, she just minds her own business. I’ve definitely noticed that about her.
She only opens up to people she can trust, and I know she’s still a bit hesitant to fully trust us, but she’s watching and analyzing everyone closely.
She’s not one to gossip or talk badly about others. Right now, she’s close to Yash and Sid… especially Sid, as he also has a calm and quiet nature.
I just smiled to myself, mentally of course, at how observant she is.
“Don’t overthink it, Ruh! I can totally read your mind with all your black magic skills, while I’m out here mastering the white magic,” I jokingly said.
But then it hit me and I realised what I just called her…..To hell with you Vihaan Raichand?
Ruh.
But isn’t it pretty nickname.
Hey, hey stop it vihaan.
She’s probably thinking I’m turning into a total creep.
Or maybe she’s starting to think I have feelings for her. Come on, I’m handsome, smart, and charming – any girl would be into me.
But then my subconscious was like, ‘but remember my boy, she’s not just any girl.’
I mean you are not completely wrong, she is different.
But, Vihaan, don’t forget your plan.
We were all in the canteen, eating, and she was avoiding me. Good, I didn’t want to face her after what happened in the corridor. I spent the whole day ignoring her, even though I could feel her eyes on me, questioning and confused. And whenever I caught her staring, she would pout and I just mentally chuckled at her reaction.
FEW DAYS LATER-
So it’s been a few days and the equation between me and my studies is somehow getting better. Or let’s come to the truth it’s getting hard to handle that four nightmares (PCMB). It will look easy when you see from far that it is just four subjects but when you look deep in that subject you will realise it’s not less than a nightmare.
A Freaking Nightmare.
And about the equation between me and Ruhanika is also improving. Like seriously we haven’t had any fights this week.
Whenever we meet our gaze locked with each other, and she just gives me a small smile.
Everything seems to be going okay for now. Oh, and by the way, we have that MKIQ quiz coming up next week, and we’re heading to Lucknow for a competition.
And know what ,many students are joining not just for the competition but because it’s out of state. And trust me if your school is taking you out of state just join it, because you are gonna regret it in future and about the competition it’s only 2 days and we all can enjoy our trip for the rest of the days.
Right now, I’m on my way to a parent-teacher meeting with my dad.
Usually, my mom handles these meetings, and since last few years Prisha dii is handling but both of them have been busy lately.
My mom, being a class teacher herself, won’t be able to make it. And dii have to go to her office.
As we entered the school, my dad stopped in the hallway and gave me a curious look.
I asked him, “What happened, dad?”
He looked at me intently and asked,
“Beta, konsi class me padhte ho?” I was shocked that he didn’t know what class I was in.
(Which class are you in, beta?)
“Dad are you sure me apka beta hu, me adopted to nhi hu na?,” I asked him, completely surprised.
(Dad, are you really my dad? Did you adopt me?)
He just smiled sheepishly and said,
“Ek min, thoda sochne do.”
(Wait a minute, let me think)
My jaw dropped at his response; he really needed to reconsider his answer. Vihu tu adopted hai Maan le beta.
(Vihaan, you are my adopted son, accept it)
“Ohh hnn yaad aaya tum mere hi bete ho and rahi baat adopt krne ki toh agr adopt krna hi hota toh tum jaisa nalayak ko kyu krta,” he said innocently.
(Oh, I remember now, you are my own son. And about adopting, think why would I even consider adopting you)
I glared at him in anger but his pout made my anger disappear.
I moved forward, saying, “Come on, captain, follow me. Remember, I’m in 11th grade.”
As I turned back and looked at him, I asked, “Dad you are turning old that’s why you are forgetting what if you forget that I am your child phir apki property me mere adhe hisse ka kya hoga….dad I am saying jaldi property mere naam kr dijiye isse pehle ye bholne ki bimari aur badhe”
(Dad, you’re getting old and forgetting things. What if you forget that I’m your child? What will happen to my share of your property? Dad, hurry up and transfer the property in my name before this sickness gets worse)
This time, he looked at me in shock and lightly tapped my forehead and muttered, “pata nhi budhape me mera saath kon dega yaha khudka beta bhi nalayak nikla”, in a dramatic way.
(I don’t know who will be by my side in my old age, even my own son turned out to be stupid)
My family is always so dramatic. I shook my head and walked up to the classroom.
We finally got to the classroom, and the teachers went on about my marks and behavior to my dad. If PTM wasn’t mandatory, I probably wouldn’t have bothered going because the school uses it to blackmail us into attending for the sake of counting it as an attendance.
Haaye ye attendence ke liye kya kya krna padta hai.
(Uff, the things we have to do just for attendance)
After PTM we came outside the school because my dad got busy with phone call and I had to wait for him like 20 minutes. I don’t understand, my dad seems quite but where the hell he got so much energy just for gossiping. Yeah he is gossiping how there wife’s always in a mood of shopping and emptying their wallets and how ladies do not get tired of shopping clothes filling their whole wardrobe and still whinning that they don’t have much clothes.
Huff…!!
I was literally waiting for my dad to over his conversation when I spot Ruh and her brother.
And yess I decide to call her with the nickname which I gave…off course I gave the nickname then only I have the right to call her.
I greeted her brother who also greeted me back and my dad also met him and shake their hands.
“How are you Kunal…and Ruhii how are you?” My dad asked her to which she finally spoke in her sweet as sugar voice ” I am fine uncle”
Although I don’t like her but something is different today I am not feeling any hatred towards her.
Strange.
“And uncle how is Prisha….uh and Aunty?” Kunal bhai asked, stuttering.
Weird.
My dad chuckled and answered, “they both are fine and Prisha is also good but her schedule is so hectic that her health is falling down, should I give her your number so she could have appointment for her health check”, my dad said making Kunal bhai all red.
I looked up to sky and see everything is normal because of rainy weather then why the hell Kunal bhai’s cheeks and ear turning red. Itni garmi toh nhi hai.
(It’s not that much hot)
Wait…what is going on here.
But my eyes fell on someone who is keenly watching me and she didn’t even blink her eyes I raised an eyebrow asking and soon she came out of her gawking-at-me session and looked down fidgeting her finger.
“Ruhii do you also participate in competition?,” my dad asked toh which she replied with yes.
And I remembered that my goal is to win…only Win.
You can’t distract Vihaan.
Yess I’ll make sure to win.
I challenged her with my eyes. She too looked at me accepting my challenge.
Now the Real Game Begins.
————————————
Finally Chapter 13 out…!!
How was the chapter?
Do you think this competition is going to change the equation between Ruhii and Vihu?
Also I was not well, coz I have been suffering from high fever, that’s why I didn’t updated the chapter.
But since you all were waiting so I hurriedly write up the chapter and posted I know it’s a quite boring chapter and a short chapter.
Also about the Update schedule I can only update chapters on weekends sat or maybe sun. Since I have to study so in weekdays I have a very hectic schedule.
Update Schedule- every weekend (Sat or may be Sun)
