A fresh peachy morning with beautiful weather. Lacy already skipped classes to meet brother Henry. They went to the point of even torturing us singles. They had planned a perfect date and Lacy wore that exquisite crystal ring.
Everyone was busy having their own plans but I was stuck at college. That doesn't mean life was cruel to me. In Fact we didn't even have a proper conversation. The first class was computer laboratory class where we both were together.
While striking the keys he in his soft voice against my ears asked, "Do you have anyone to spend your time with? "
I replied, "Who needs me? This world doesn't need me. "
I sounded a bit melancholic...
He became quiet and softly turned back to his position. I said no more. I knew very well how much I ruined our talk. But I felt a small pain in my chest while saying those. Actually that's the fact. The one I love the most doesn't even know about my real feelings at all...
Husky was asking me, "Sonnet do you know which one consumes less time ++i or i++ during coding? "
I replied, "i++ maybe I'm not sure! "
Husky replied, "Nope, it's ++i."
I replied, "How? "
He explained it to me. On the other hand I was subconsciously watching him chatting with other guys. Chatting about films, new web series, stand-up comedy and lots other topics. Some were discussing placement after more than 3 years. The recruitment regarding Microsoft or Google.
Extremely serious people were chatting while I, on the other hand after exchanging a little knowledge with Husky, started to type. I was sitting as if lifeless. Whether it was due to Him talking to others or seeing others happily skipping classes to go on a date with their beloved or was it because I had expectations of something.
I continued but my code didn't run nor did it show any error. Whatever it was, my code was as lifeless as mine. I was just blankly looking at the code. I tried again and again but with no result at the end. I sat unmoved.
A long slender hand approached,clicking on my keyboard keys and running my code. I finally snapped out of my melancholic world and was elated as the code ran. I turned my neck to see it was Sky who had typed and saved the code.
I finally replied, "Thanks, Sky. "
"How many times a day do you need to thank to make yourself satisfied? ", he remarked.
"Don't mind me. It's a habit of mine. "
"I do mind and I will mind! Only I have the right to thank you, not you. Hmph! "
I replied avoiding eye contact, "Sorry."
He replied, "Nah! It's okay."
Again after going through the next I got stuck. Maybe the bugs, warnings and errors had already accepted me to be their valentine. I evaluated and revised so that my code would run. I fixed it and finally it worked.
Next the time was over and so was my favourite class. The break time arrived . I brought my ordinary yet tasty meal. When Ellie started talking and eating, I could easily see him focused on having his own lunch and I unconsciously wished to make him eat my lunch... Or have a taste of my cooking skills…
