Not Breaking

Chapter # 12

Today, in the evening, at Jenna's house, they were sitting as Jenna spoke, "You.. What are you doing on Sunday?" She asked in a playful manner, constantly looking at him. "When is that?" He asked, not looking up from a book. "The day after tomorrow." She said, grinning. "Oh, nothing. There are no plans on that day." He smiled and looked at her. "Oh how boring you are.."

"Huh? Look who is saying.." He raised his eyebrows. "Yeah yeah.." She said, "Okay, listen." George said. "Yes?" She said excitedly. "Will you go on Sunday? Look, there is some place close to here. We will go cycling and eat some ice cream too. You know what a view comes from there.." He asked, pleasingly. "Really? Definitely. I'll definitely go with you."

Jenna was more than delighted he asked her to go somewhere with him. "Okay then that's done. So, at the same time as the tuition, I will come here, then we will go." He grinned. "Alright!" She also grinned.

Next day, before the day they were going sightseeing, Jenna was lost somewhere in her thoughts. Sir.. he is so very nice, isn't he? I don't know why but I just want to stare at him.. I.. like him very much.. After my mother, there was no one who would be close to me, but Sir, she put her hand on her heart, smiling wholeheartedly. So close to me.. After this thought, a blush came to her cheek. He is right about what I did, was wrong.. It was only my mother who usually taught me what was right or wrong.. Get worried about me.. After that, no one stayed. But, now there is Sir. He said right, his every talk is right. He is really very nice.. Now I don't even like to be rude to anyone.. After I think it's alright, why should I need to do that? If mom was here I would probably listen to her, she always says what is right.. Just like he does.

Next day, it was a very special day for Jenna, that she was even getting ready with all this unusual for her- but with her efforts. She got ready, did her make-up, put lipstick on, and wore some beautiful floral dress. She made it absolutely clear that it looked pretty.

He came to her house right at that time, and from the outside he picked her up on her bicycle and they began to ride it while going there. They were riding it, laughing, talking, at speed, enjoying their ride along with each other.

They arrived at the garden park up on some mountains where there was a sight coming from down there. "This.. place is so beautiful.." Jenna said in admiration. "I know right.." George agreed with her, smiling at looking there. "Wow.."

"Hey, you.." He trailed off, Jenna fully turned to him, "Hmm?"

"You are looking really pretty today." He complimented her. She blushed and looked down. "Thank you." She said sweetly. "Okay, come with me, I'll show you the main place." She looked up at him and smiled. "Okay."

He showed her the place, and was so delighted, and she didn't stop telling him how much she liked it. They sat in that place from where they could see the view. George was looking straight there in silence. Jenna was too, but then she, for a while, her gaze lost itself automatically on him.

Now his eyes were at that sight, and hers was at him. Jenna was lost, smiling non stop, "Sir?" She called him. "Hmm?" He said, still looking straight. "You are really nice.." She said with so much sweetness in her voice. He looked at her, "Really?" he chuckled. "Yeah, That's I know." she smiled and hummed. "No really.. Thanks." She just smiled continuously.

After a while, George called her, "Jenna?"

"Yes?" She looked at him and replied happily. "We came on a holiday, come on. Let's play a game then. We will enjoy it." He said excitedly. "Which game?" She asked. "Okay, so there is a game in which you ask these small and whatever questions come to your mind to the person in front of you, and they will, like, answer quickly."

"Just like rapid fire?"

"Yeah, just like that. But it's a bit different." He told her with a shrug. "How's that?" George smirked a bit, "We play this game so that we can bring out the things which are stuck in the heart of that person."

"Now, how's that?"

"Because.. We have to tell what comes first to our mind after hearing the question. So, obviously, we will know what will be on the mind of that person." He told her casually. "Oh, that is surely a very risky game." He chuckled, "Yeah. So tell me, will you play?" He asked. "Yes. Okay, I think we will like that." She grinned

"Okay, then I will start by asking you. Are you sure you are ready?" He asked, "Um, yes! Absolutely." She said excitedly. "Alright, let's start." He continued. "Your favourite weather?"

"Winter"

"Your age?"

"Eighteen"

"Favorite color?"

"Purple"

"City of your dreams?"

"New York"

"Fav person?"

"My Mom was.. "

"Ooh- okay, favorite superhero?"

"Spider man!"

"Do you think I'm old?"

"What?" She laughed, "No.. "

He leaned a bit closer, "Do you know me?"

"No, I mean if we put it like that.."

"Okay. What do you think about me?"

"Best teacher!" She smiled whole heartedly.

"Okay.. who am I to you?"

"Sir!!"

"Okay!! Do you smoke?" He asked suspiciously.

"What? No.. "

"Alcohol?"

"No way"

"Your crush?"

"You."

He paused, she quickly coughed nervously, "Um, actually, that.. Um, " She keeps doing that. "What?" He asked confusingly. "Um, you are sitting in front of me and I don't have any crush so.. so obviously it slipped out of my mouth!" She said hurriedly, and took a long breath, tried to calm down, "You are not angry, are you?" She asked expectantly, and he started laughing, and shocked his no.

"Are you crazy or something? Of course I am not." He said in between laughing. She let out a sigh of relief, "Oh.. thank God.."

"What are you Jenna?" Finally, he let down his laugh, "For a second I thought you really have a crush on me.. " He chuckled, clearly not thinking much about it. "Hehe yeah… " She looked somewhere else, and said embarrassingly.

"By the way, I didn't get anything by playing it with you, nothing got out of you." He complained, and shrugged. What more will come out from me? She thought. "Yeah.. you're right.." she trailed off, "Now come on, let's play it with you." Jenna was already excited to get to know more about him, so she couldn't wait any longer to play it with him, but he.

"Yeah, of course we will play but.." Trailed off, saying. "It's getting late. You wanna eat ice cream or not?" He said, cousin an instant frown to come on her face. "What is this? I also wanted to play it with you, you can't run away like that!" She complained. He got up and started to run after saying, "I can run!"

Jenna also started to run behind him, and from running for a while they got where they could eat ice cream. Finally, they slowed down, and both were eating their ice cream there. "Jenna?" He called her. "Hm?"

"I made plans for today, because from next week, exams are going to start, and there's still a lot that we have to prepare." he told her, and her mood, which was great today, got ruined. "Really? Why?" She said, making an exhausted face. "What do you mean why? From now on, you will work more on your studies. Only studies, and nothing else."

"Argh why.. Now I have to study more.."

"Absolutely!"

"Okay. Will there be a farewell party after exams? You are going to come, right?" Suddenly she found something which could make her excited. "Yes. I'm here until then- I will be here." He smiled, telling her what made her delighted how much she wanted to.

"Yes! It's going to be amazing. You.. will you dance?" She asked, looking at him hopefully. "Why will I dance? The students will do it." He told her casually. Suddenly she said, making a kinda serious face. "You will come, right? That will be enough." After that, just like how they came, they went back.
