Eva was so excited today. Finally, she was going to propose him.
" So guys, are you coming tonight for the party? " Darsh said excitedly.
" Of course. Is this also something to ask? " Eva said with double excitation.
" I and Parth will reach there at right time. Ladies, don't get late." Darsh teased them.
Eva stared at him and said, " Look who's talking about late. The one who never reaches school on time."
" I intentionally get late for the school but when it comes to party, i'm always punctual."
" Oh! you do it intentionally. Okay, let me tell the teacher about it." Eva threatened him.
" No, no. I mean it happens by mistake."
Isla looked at Parth. He was busy with his book. Though, he was listening them partly but he was focused on his study."
***********
Ryan was sitting in the library with Rose. Book was opened in front of him but he was lost somewhere.
" What happened to you Ryan? Yesterday, you suddenly cancelled the program of watching movie and now we are sitting here together for more than an hour but you didn't talk anything and you're looking absent minded too."
" It's nothing and i'm really sorry for the yesterday that i cancelled the program." Ryan replied.
"It's alright Ryan. We can watch movie some other day too but i'm complaining just because you're not telling me the reason. What happened to you that i want to know? " Rose said.
" I don't know myself. What can i tell you? " Ryan thought, "when i knew that someone is going to propose him, i'm getting insecure about him. I am feeling like someone is going to take something precious thing of mine."
He saw Kevin entered the library. He got angry looking at him." Let's go in the classroom, Rose." He said and put his book back in his bag and walked out from there with Rose.

It was 4 o'clock, Isla was busy in arranging dress for the party. Ryan knocked the door.
" Who's this? Oh you! Come inside."
" Are you busy? "
" Not at all actually. I was just looking for the nice dress from my wardrobe." Isla said, putting her purple-coloured gown aside on the bed.
" I came to know about your friend. Did your friend propose her crush? What was his reply? Did he accept her proposal? How it was? " Ryan put a lot of question in his single breath.
" She didn't propose him." Isla said.
" Why? " Ryan asked. He got chilled in his heart.
" I mean, she didn't propose him yet. She has planned to propose him in the party. We are having small get-together tonight, i already told you about it."
Suddenly, his expression changed in a moment.
" That's cool. Anyways, i have my personal advice for your friend. It's really happy if her crush accept her proposal but tell her to get prepare herself for the rejection too." Ryan said.
Isla thought for a second. Then she said, " Your right in your place but i think Parth won't reject her proposal."
" How can you be so sure about it? Did you try to know what's there in his heart? You can't impose your feelings to anyone and expect the same thing from the front."
" Because, i know him. He can't break anyone's heart. He is single and no one is there in his life and the most importantly, Eva is his best friend since long time. They know each other very well and she loves him a lot, cares for him. She is the best choice for him." Isla said.
"May he love someone else. " Ryan replied, " but he did not open up with you guys.You should make sure about it before then only your friend should propose him because it's okay to hide feelings in the heart but rejection is very painful."
" You are right. I didn't think about it in this way." Isla said, " Thanks. I'll talk about it with Eva."
Ryan smiled, caressed her hair and said, " Enjoy the party. I have to go now. " and he walked out of her room.
He came in his balcony. He saw Parth was studying in his balcony.
" Hey Ryan! What happened to you? Firstly, you insulted him, rejected him and now you're doing all these. Why?what do you want actually " He thought.
He looked at Parth and thought, " I think he doesn't love me anymore. So, may be he will accept her proposal."
He came inside his room and laid down on his bed . He got up from the bed then and stood in front of the mirror. " You are a super straight guy. You're already dating a girl and you feel disgusting to fall for a guy. How can you love him. It's awkward." He said to himself., " I won't be jealous of him anymore."
Isla called Eva and told her everything whatever she heard from her brother. " I think you should try to know what's there in his heart for you." Isla said.
" Yeah, you are right. I don't want to lose friendship just for love. I don't want to spoil our old friendship." Eva agreed.
" Let's get ready for the party now. Don't get late otherwise Darsh will comment on us and taunt us for getting late." Isla said. Both of them bursted out laughing.
" Yeah,. I have to take shower also. " Eva said, " See you in the party then." She hung up the phone.
Parth looked at the time. It was going to be 5 o'clock. " I have to ask permission too from grandma and Pa. Pa will get angry sure." he thought, " What to do then? "
He thought for a second and smiled. He went to Lily and said, " You didn't ask party when i won the match? I'm surprised. Anyways i'm happy that my money didn't get wasted."
" No, i'm not gonna let you go. I want it."
" Then i will give you only for today. If you want party from me then only today i can give you."
"Suddenly, you became so generous. What's the reason? " Lily looked at him suspiciously.
" It's nothing especial. I was just giving you chance."
Lily laughed and said, " I know you very well. Now tell me what's the reason? "
Parth told her about the get-together. " Okay, don't worry. I will ask permission for you from him but it should be your last. After that you will not go anywhere before examination."
"I swear, i won't go." Parth said and moved to his room to get ready.
