Chasing Stars

Chapter -5

Emma- Its been exact 30 seconds after i asked the question and all he did was stare at the ground.

Today has been a mission failure day,... If I fail in this mission also

1st I'm gonna beat Efna to death.

2nd- Im gonna go home argue with my mom that

"This b****y dress is ain't that cute like you said, I told you I hate pink, you said it's cute on me.

Now look at me I'm a pink buffoon

"Why is he so silent? Did he hear what i asked or should I ask him again? "

If he didn't hear me then, I can change the topic

Why is he not moving? Oh my God is he froze by my question? Is that possible? If he is frozen, can i touch him and he won't know it right?

Ahhh forget it I'm gonna turn around and run..

I was just trying to turn slightly planning an escape anddd here comes the angelic voice

"No"

I was confused "No? You mean you are not single or not committed? "

Here he goes again with the silent thing, if he is going to be silent again I'm gonna hit him in the face.

Enough of that come on..

Mathew- Tiny is really asking if im available?? Is she having a crush on me? God!!!! Im happy, hey why am i happy???

You are in big trouble young man

Should i be answering that? I should say something, what should i say? May be i say something and she propose me?

Really Mathew, stop panicking, get a grip man.

Took few deep breaths and said "no"

She asked me again, "you mean not single or not committed? "

"Why is she not guessing the answer? Do i look committed? Poor me "

Emma- He is so slow, he remind me of "Dash the sloth" from Zootopia. I think his processor should to be upgraded, real fast.

"It's okay, Its just a part of a bet i made with my friend, nothing serious" I said to make things less awkward

Mathew- She was just betting on me, Here i thought i finally won a girl's heart,

(Try to be more like a robotic sloth and girls will be dying on you... dumbass, you will die single‍♂️ our family line will meet an extinction through me)

"Oh, is that the case? Im single " i managed to blurt out finally

Emma- I know you won't fail me God!!!! Love yaaaa

He is single,, he is single I start singing in mind,, Mariya my girl here i come

"Oh thank you so much for answering that, sorry to interrupt you bye bye take care"

Mathew- its okay, bye (Why are you leaving already don't go, i swear I'm a good boy) i saw her walking i mean running to the library and i left to the class

Emma- I have to find Efha right away, I said a thank you to the cutie and run to the library before it gets more awkward.

When i open the door Efna came in with a smirk and said "you are welcome "

I grinned

"What did you get? " she asked very interestedly

"Oh girl i got a lot, he is not only silent but also God damnly slow, I was literally fighting to stay awake.

He acts like he searches entire oxford dictionary to pick up a word when he speak"

Efna- Really???

I said "yeahhh can you believe it"

"Noo, cause i was just asking you that is he single or not, and what i got is a complete essay on the way he speaks " she spoke

I grinned again "oh he is single, single for sure"

"You know what that means? "

"That we are going to win 50bucks?" Efna asked

"Yeah anddd I'm up to something really interesting "

Efna holds my ear and drag me to the class.. "not before you buy me something to eat"

Emma- "ow ow ow ow leave me, i will buy you something."

Efna- Okay let's go get our cash!!

Mathew- I sat down in my chair and keep thinking about the recent incidents.

Emma is a cute name, but Tiny suits her better I never talked to someone like her before. (Well i don't think I ever talk to anyone than my parents and close family before‍♂️,)

I should have talked to her something, is it possible that she ran off cause she think I'm weird??

(Mentally face palming myself right now, you need help mahn, real help‍♂️ )

Mariya-" what?, he is single?, no way!!"

"Yes way! We risked alot to get you this information from him" Efna spoke and saw me eyeing and she grinned at me.

"Now its done here so give us our money" I said

Mariya pulls out 50bucks from her purse and give it to me, which Efna took happily

"Okay then bye" We left straight to cafeteria

" I'm glad that we skip this class, i should have been sleeping peacefully anyway, it's a pity that i miss my sleep" Efna spoke munching down the burger we ordered.

"He told me that he seen me" i spoke

"Who? Our history tutor? " asked Efna

"What? Nooo, cutie!! He told me that he seen me, does that mean he notice me? Does that mean he have a crush on me?

Efna smacked my head and said" oh stop being paranoid, can you behave sweet and innocent like normal female leads?? "

"Ouch that hurts, how you expect me to be normal when i have you as my bestfriend? " i winked at her

And successfully yearned another hit on the head.

"Seriously dude, it hurts!!!" I whined

"Then you should watch your tongue young lady" Efna pointed

"Okay grandma" I mumbled

Mathew- Im here in class pretending to read this book then the bell rings and Mr Smith marched in

He is very famous in instantly making his students sleep. Lets see how many manages to stay awake this time.

During the class i keep on looking at the two empty seats beside me.

Where is that girl? I didn't see her after our little encounter. Did i just scared her to that extend to leave class?

That's not possible, i shook my head.. or is it?

Emma- we waited that class to end and sneakily got back to our seats..

Apart form regular stares I have a feeling of getting a new one.

Is cutie actually looking at me?

I turned and spot him looking past me to the window and then to his book.

That was a close call.. You got me there God

Mathew- I some how managed to stay awake in his class. Still no sign of her. I will be so damned if she left the class.

There she comes, where have you been? Yeah ask louder in your mind and she will definitely reply.. You dumpo..

She sits there and scans the room, oh s**t she saw me

Relax just pretend to be cool, you were just looking out the window, not her, only the window..

Oh screw it look down..

I am good for nothing
