Amyra bumped into the person was actually her crush Varun. Thankfully he was not alone... behind him, there was another boy. 'Amit' Varun's friend and their classmate, Amyra recognized the boy.
The men behind her stopped there.
-"it's our pray boys, leave her here and go"
One of them said.
-"if you dare just touch her once," said Varun stepping forward.
Amit made his bicycle stand there and came forward.
-"so you think you can fight us..hahaha" the man laughed.
Before he could continue Varun balled his palm and punch him in his jawbone..it started bleeding.
The man was shocked to get such a blow from the boy and he angrily forwarded to attack. He delivered a heavy blow towards Varun, but he wisely dodged in time and the man fell on the ground.
His two disciples were already scared but they also came forward to help their leader.
This time Amit took a fallen branch of a tree and attacked them, they were about to retreat but managed to deliver a punch on Amits face and he fell on the ground, Varun already finished fighting with the boss who was now fallen on the ground motionless and producing a weird sound from his mouth. The two disciples somehow managed to carry him and fled for their life.
Amit was alright except his right cheek became a little blackish due to the punch and the started walking towards the town.
-"so is that you who seeks trouble or trouble seeks you??" Yet Varun said it without looking at her but she understood the question was directed towards her.
'seriously God what do you want? why I am such a troublemaker? 'Amyra yelled at her mind.
-"I am sorry," she said in a low voice.
-"do you think your sorry is always the solution? What if we didn't cross this road now? Careless!!! And is it school time?"
-"shall I go back to those men now? I am already feeling so low, don't lecture me.. please..." She replied.
-"you must feel low.. and is this the way you say 'thank you'?". Varun said with anger.
'how rude!! But I like him even more now' she thought in mind.
-" Ok thanks to both of you... but it's so early for the school..where should I go now," she asked creating a helpless face.
-"you go to Varun's place as I have some more newspapers to distribute," Amit said.
Varun gave a disgusted glance to her.
'does he want to eat me dry? So they distribute newspapers in the morning. Whatever it is, but I got a chance to go to his place..but it doesn't seem he will ever befriend me'
Amit hailed them "bye" and gone his way... Amyra was silently following Varun until he paused before a small house with wooden steps to climb.. there was a collection of orchids hanging from the balcony.
Varun climbed the steps and then knocked on the door
-"grandma! grandma!" An elderly lady opened the door.
-"why are you so late today? You have to go to school right! Get ready." the lady scolded him mildly.
-"grandma she is my friend Amyra. Actually, she missed some classes and needs some notes. That's why..."Varun couldn't complete his sentence while his granny said -"you need not explain me anything, at least you took a girl home for the first time. I am glad. Now go and get ready" Granny smiled turning towards Amyra -"come in..."
Granny made her seat in Varun's room in his study table. She took one of his note copy and started copying. It was granny's worship time so she was gone for the same. Varun came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Water was dropping down of his wet hair. Giving him a sexy look. Amyra just couldn't turn her eyes off Varun. She felt like hot air coming out of her ears.
-"you dry up your hair please," she said nervously biting her lower lip unintentionally.
