Chereads / MY RIDE WITH HIM / Chapter 2 - What A Weird Question!

Chapter 2 - What A Weird Question!

"So... class you must be ready with your questions. Right?!" She asked, full of enthusiasm while getting the same energy from others. "Ranvijay You can go first..." She presided And he stood up from his seat

"Miss, whom do you love?" She was taken aback a bit by the question but still answered it. "The one who cares for me... if you care for me I LOVE you" "But really whom do you really love... like whom do you wanna spend YOUR life with?" He added with a Mature tone. Jiya froze, and couldn't think of ANYTHING. She went blank... And her eyes went wide... She blinked a few times to get out of her zone. 

"I'm sorry miss If I offended you" He said and hung his head low. "Aish.. no no but I can't seem to find an answer to that... hehe... Anyways next question?"

All other questions seemed to be simple and straight... but even after school was over. Jiya keeps thinking of the same question again, and again, and again

"Whom do I wanna spend MY life with?" She murmured. "Huh?" Pawan asked who was riding a bike with her sitting at the back, "Nothing" The school was over now and they were going back home. Pawan wanted to stop by Jiya's house...

Since They were going to the same spot... Pawan offered a ride... "Pawan?" Jiya asked and placed her hand on his shoulder "Hmm?" He said turning her head in her direction but fixing her gaze on the road.

She wanted to say something but didn't... for quite a while. It was as if an urge was pushing her but holding her back at the same time

Pawan didn't pay much attention to her and focused back on the road.

 

A few Kids were also running back from school with their bags... Giggling and laughing... Unintentionally Jiya also smiled at their moment 

"Jiya~ Wanna eat something?" He asked and slowed down the bike "Why would I deny?!" She said and laughed "So... What would you eat?" "ANYTHING!!" He stopped in front of a Diary "Stay here," he said and hopped off the bike A lot of vehicles were passing by and it was trafficked... People were chatting with each other,

A Few beggar kids were noticed by Jiya. They were staring at the shop hungrily... the youngest one of them was crying... Jiya's eyes softened "Ohy~ come here," She said while waving at them. One of them noticed and came running towards her and the others followed, one of them was looking at her with a finger in his mouth

"Come here I have something for you all" She said and started to look for something in her purse. All the 5 children were looking at her with hopeful eyes... Filled with a small shimmer. After some while, A small smile folded on her lips and she took out something from her handbag

"Candies~" one of them exclaimed, Jiya chuckled at the reaction of the younger one "Yeah! Candies~" She said while mimicking the younger. 

"These are for you here," She said and handed out a bunch to them. The little one's cries turned into some giggles... "Thank you didi" the older-looking one let out. "Okay, Young man! My pleasure!" And she ruffled his hair. He giggled and started to walk off...

Jiya was happy to see their smiling faces. As she watched them walk away her smile also started to fade. She looked back into the shop to see him PAWAN leaning back on the entrance With a grin on his face

Her eyebrows knitted together to see him

He started to walk towards her sitting on the bike, with a little polyethene bag in his hand.

It had some water droplets on it

 "What did you buy?" She threw her question straight at his face

"Our Favorite" he responded "ICE CREEEEEMMMM???!!!" She jumped out 

"Mine is nuts and yours is cookie" He said and started to shuffle around the bag

 "You remember that?" Jiya calmed down and "What do I remember?" 

"Pawan don't be KIDDING... After all these years-" Her eyes start to pool up.

Pawan was looking at her with his usual smile... Full of Care and....

"You re-recall my fav-favorite" A little droplet escaped her eyes 

"Yes I do" he handed her an Ice cream cone...

"H-How do-" Words barely escaped her mouth

"Stop your cry And have it before it melts, don't ruin the feel" He also whispers the last phrase.

Jiya sniffed and folded her lips into a bright smile

"Thank yiw" and she grabbed her cone and unwrapped it. Pawan was unintentionally smiling at her

Eating her cone, she knitted her brows at him... He snaps back and tries not to make it obvious... "I'll need one more" And she took another bite "Huh?" He couldn't process the question

"You came back after so many years... be lucky I asked for only one." She said pouting and taking another bite, Pawan chuckled at her actions, "Naur I am not gonna buy you another one" He said teasingly

"Wha-" "TODAY, listen to the complete sentence" and he started to laugh almost bending down to earth at her facial expressions "OH-OH-OH--- YOUR IC-" Before she said that The ultimate disaster happened... "Uh?" The poor guy only was able to look at What happened. "What-?" He was cut off by a loud laugh

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! you-r Ice cream AHAHAHAHAHAHAH... It is on THE GROUND AHAHHAHAHAHHHAH!" She was laughing holding her stomach with one hand.

While he was only able to look at the blob splattered on the cemented ground. After staring enough that he shot his eyes at Jiya who was silently laughing at him looking at his eyes she stop and innocently took a bite of the cone... He was staring bad at her for her reaction But something disturbed him and made her finch

A THUNDER

"It's gonna rain soon let's get home" He said with a straight face and marched towards the bike flipping his leg over and starting the bike "Come sit." He said more like commanded... Jiya silently followed his order and settled down...
