1242 Words
We safely reached the house. Everyone felt tense until we arrive there.
My friends came and hugged me. Lavanya started crying and hugged me tightly and said I thought you were lost. As I calm down her.
After some time, we had dinner.
Some members are watching Tv and some members went to sleep. Lavanya is not leaving me a minute. She held my hands, resting her head on my shoulder as we are watching some random stuff in the tab.
I'm watching videos but my mind was not with me. It is revolving around that incident.
"If Pruthvi was not there with me, I'm not able to survive". So I want to thank him but Lavanya is not letting me go. After one hour, Lavanya slept on my shoulder in the middle of watching. I looked at her and kept her head on the pillow and set her position.
"Ouch!!" My shoulder is hurting too much due to her long head.
I slowly got up from my bed without making any noise. I straightly walked to Pruthvi's room. I hesitantly knocked on his door but he didn't open it. Then I again knocked on the door but due to my knocking the door opened slightly. He did not lock his door from inside.
I slightly opened the door and called him but no response. I thought he was outside so then I turned back to go but I heard the sound of glass which is fallen from the room. Curiously I went inside there I saw a black cat standing on the table where the bed light was kept. Pruthvi was sleeping peacefully in his bed.
Where's the cat came from? I don't know but it is making noise. I fear that may Pruthvi wake up due to the noise so I tried to calm down the cat. But you know very well "they won't listen to us". I'm trying to catch it and it is running around the room. Suddenly it jumps on the bed and it is trying to jump on Pruthvi. I went near the bed but from some distance, I'm saying to the cat "Come to me". It took a move and tried to jump on him but to catch it I also jumped towards the cat then I fall on Pruthvi and the cat ran away.
After few seconds I realized that I'm on Pruthvi then immediately I got up from him and about to got up from bed but he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him.
My face was near to him that I could feel his breath. He slowly opened his eyes and said "Have you had enough fun??" I was startled and I immediately got up from bed.
"What are you doing here?" he looked at me and asked. I felt so embarrassed that I couldn't answer him. I didn't answer him and just ran away from his room.
The Next day, everyone is ready to go to the forest except me and Pruthvi. My guide said us to take a rest for two days.
Everyone left. Pruthvi was not there at home, he went outside in the morning, I don't know when he will return. That old lady was also not there at home after cooking she went to her home, I was alone. I don't know what to do...
Yesterday it showed no effect but today my bruises are burning. I applied ointment and sat in front of Tv and watching a thriller movie. After some time I slowly went to sleep unknowingly. When I opened my eyes I saw Pruthvi who is sitting beside me and watching Tv.
I immediately got up and I saw a blanket on me. I didn't speak anything until he asked me did I sleep well? I said yes and thanks for giving me a blanket, not only a blanket but also for saving me yesterday.
He turned to me and said I accept thanks for yesterday but not for the blanket. Why?? I asked. He said he didn't put a blanket on me and it was already there on me before he came. I was shocked and thinking who did that? As Pruthvi talked I came out from those thoughts.
He asked why did you come to my room yesterday? I said I came to say thanks to you but you are sleeping and that cat is making noise and I wanted it to get out so you cannot disturb from your sleep.
He gave me an oh face and turned back to see the movie. As I'm looking at him, he is operating a remote control, I saw a bruise on his hand and he didn't care about it. I asked him did he applied ointment to his bruises? He said, I did yesterday but not today. I don't know why? but I raised upon him." How can you not care about it" it may lead to infection if you do not care, I said and ran to my room to take the first aid kit.
Pruthvi's point of view.
I'm peacefully watching Tv but suddenly she shouted at me and I saw the tension on her face when I said I didn't take care of my bruises. She ran away within a second like a butterfly. After few seconds she came up with a first aid kit in her hands. She came to me and asked me to show her my bruises. I can see her little puppy eyes which are filled with anxiety. She applied ointment to my bruises, it's paining but I bear it. After doing her little treatment she asked me do I want anything to eat. I said, How about fruit juice. She didn't question me back as she usually does and quietly ran towards the kitchen.
I never saw someone who cared about me like this. She is such a sweet girl. Wait, what? I'm I falling for her slowly, no no no we are just friends, yes she is just my friend like mom said. Pruthvi doesn't think too much I said myself.
After some time she came up with the juice in her hands and gave it to me with a sweet smile. She sat beside me and watching Tv. I sipped my juice and it is tasty. By sipping juice I looked at her, I can see her side view of beautiful eyes which are concentrated on Tv and her little chubby cheeks and her lips. I don't know why but I can't take off my eyes from her. My mind is saying "Pruthvi don't look at her" but my heart can't listen to it and it is beating fast.
No, I shouldn't look at her as I'm convincing myself. But hell no, I can't. Suddenly she looked at me and I was choked. Then she patted on my head gently. She said, drink slowly as I looked at her brightly.
Vidya's point of view.
I'm watching Tv but I felt a glare at me and I looked at Pruthvi, then he choked. I patted his head gently.
I don't why? my opinion of him changing slowly. I thought he was a cold, arrogant guy but he was not, like when I applied ointment to him he didn't say anything he just acted like a cute little boy. I saw his soft side in his eyes. "Yeah, he is not that bad".
