Seraph was questioning to himself then a hand came on his shoulder...
Alec:- Did you do something to her? 🤨
Seraph:- I don't know... (while wandering in his thought)
Alec:- What do you mean by you don't know?
Seraph came into his senses and walked out of classroom.
Alec:- Hey wait, You didn't give me answer yet.
Seraph:- And why do I need to answer you?
Alec:- Because I'm your buddy 😉
Seraph:- What a irrelevant answer 😑
Alec:- Dude, just answer me some more questions and please be serious. Did you ever see her face?
Seraph:- Yes
Alec:- It means she is allergic to peanuts that's why she was wearing that scarf.
Seraph:- I don't know...😶
Alec:- You don't know? 😕 Then what do you know? You told me that you know everything about her and you were best friends the...n
Seraph:- I mean I don't know if she is really allergic to peanuts now cause before she wasn't.
Alec:- 😟, Then why did she wear a scarf when she isn't allergic? 🤔 Did she find out your truth and couldn't accept it that's why she is hiding herself from you?
Seraph's expression changed suddenly, everyone who has eyes could tell by having a glance at his face that he was scared.
Seraph:- I don't know this so I have to find out.(with a serious voice and expression)
Alec:- And how? (curiously + worried)
Seraph:- You will help me with it. (with a suspicious smile on his face) 😏
Alec:- Don't drag me into this, it's your own affair not mine. (while looking up and down to Seraph)
Seraph:- But you said I'm your buddy and a true man should help his buddy. (while putting his hand on Alec's shoulder and giving a forced smile to him)
Alec:- Oooooo, so a true man should help his buddy? (looking at Seraph while raising his one eyebrow)
Seraph:- forced smile 😊
Alec:- But a true man can't help his buddy without anything in return. (smiling sarcastically)
Seraph:- and what a buddy should do? 😊
Alec:- Huuuuun🤔, I will tell you in future, cause right now I'm running out of Ideas. 😊
Seraph:- Ok 👌
While talking they reached at canteen...
Alec:- Dude I'm so hungry, let's eat...
They went and had their lunch together while having lunch Seraph told all his plan to Alec.
After having lunch they went into classroom, bell rang, Professors came and gave their lectures. It was evening, there's no more classes to join, everyone was heading to their way. Tessa and Ammy were also heading toward their dorm then suddenly someone bumped into Ammy and collapse on ground.
"Aaaaah, it hurts, my stomach" while holding his hand on his stomach.
Ammy and Tessa got worried 😟
Ammy:- Hey! what happened? Are you okay?
Alec:- No, it..it hurts so much, aaah my stomach. (crying in loud voice)
Ammy:- It's okay it's okay, we will take you to college infirmary. Be patience, Please don't worry.
Alec:- Th...thank you 🥺 but...
Ammy and Tessa:- ??
Alec:- C..Can you inform my friend for me? He is on rooftop, please (while looking toward Tessa in trembling voice with puppy eyes 🥺) Aaaa... my stomach, Mom I'm dying...
Tessa:- o..ok I will inform him, Ammy Can you take him to infirmary alone?
Ammy:- Ofcourse, just go and inform his friend (while putting Alec's hand on her shoulder and supporting him to stand)
Tessa ran toward rooftop, in few minutes she reached at rooftop and saw someone was standing near railing, his back was facing Tessa.
She took a deep breath and then started walking toward that man. After reaching near him...
Tessa:- Excuse me...
Hearing that voice Seraph turned back and saw a lady in black scarf and goggles.
She took a step back after seeing that man but then Seraph grabbed her toward himself by pulling her hand. She was shocked 😳 her eyes stopped at Seraph's face, She was continuously looking at him for a while then a voice came into her ears and wake her up from her unknown world.
Seraph:- There are no any rashes on your face, it means you are not allergic. Then why did you wear this scarf and goggles?
Tessa's mind was blank when Seraph was asking her questions she was surprised by seeing that there was only few inches distance between them. Her face was all red.
Seraph:- Were you hiding from me?
Tessa suddenly realised that Seraph was asking her questions and even taken off her goggles and scarf from her face. She stepped back and...
Tessa:- I came here to tell you that your friend is sick and he is in infirmary, he told me to inform you. (said within a breath)
Seraph:- But I don't have any friend except you. (while looking at Tessa)
Tessa in her mind "Friend? me? when did we become friend?"
Tessa:- But he told me that his friend was on rooftop and here is only you So... (while avoiding Seraph's eye contact)
Seraph:- You didn't answer my question. (while showing her scraf and goggles to her)
Tessa:- I..I..am going to find his friend. (said in hurry and turned toward door)
Seraph grabbed her hand and said...
Seraph:- wait, he was looking for me.
Tessa:- What? 🤨 but before a while you said that you don't know him and now...
Seraph:- I didn't said that I don't know him (while leaving her hand from his grip) I said that I don't have friend except you. He is my Brother's Friend's brother not my friend.
Tessa:- Then are you going to infirmary? he is sick...
Seraph:- No, he will not die so be assured.
Tessa:- But he was crying due to pain.
Seraph:- Don't worry about him and answer me first, Why are you avoiding me?
Tessa:- I..I was not avoiding you. (in low voice while looking down)
Seraph:-Then why didn't you answer my text?
Tessa:- I don't have my mobile phone it is with Ammy.
Seraph:- Why does she have your phone? 🤨
Tessa:- I...it's...
Seraph:- In lunch time she dragged you away when I was about to ask you something and now she has your phone, What does she want? Did I do something to her? 🤔🤨
Tessa:- N..no, it's just our minor problem we will short it out soon. It's nothing to do with you. (with forced smile on her face) I will go to infirmary if you don't have anything else. But I must say you should go and watch your fri...aa..your brother's Friend's brother 😊
Tessa took her scarf and goggles from Seraph and turned toward door then again Seraph stopped her...
Seraph:- W...wait, I want to ask you something
(in low voice)
Tessa stopped, turned and looked at Seraph who was looking down with a confusing mind.
Tessa:- What is it?
Seraph:- Aa..are you free this weekend? I..I mean at Saturday evening? (with hoping eyes 🥺)
Tessa:- Why?
Seraph:- I..I wanted to invite you on dinner,
for helping me that night. Will you..join me?
After thinking for a while
Tessa:- I..I will tell you on Friday.
Seraph:- Ok 👌 (with a smile on his face)
Tessa:- Then, I'm going, bye bye.
Seraph:- Yeah, bye 😊
Tessa in mind while going down "Did he just smile on me?, I didn't know that he can smile?" (happy 😊 minded)
