Rahul asked me for another date. I feel bad for him because I'm doing this only because of punishment but I like spending time with him. I want to talk to him more. He makes me feel at ease than any man around me. He takes care and is a kind person. After college I left the classroom with my friends as I glanced over to Rahul throughout the doorway he was still on his seat. Maybe he will join me later so I walked with my friends towards the gate.
Oh! I think I forgot to submit my report to the teacher, guys I need to submit it today. So I really have to go so bye. I said
We can wait for you akash said
It will take a little time because I haven't submitted my report for the last month because of my schedule.
Second thought just completed your submission we can go out together someday again so bye tanvi said
As they said they leave towards their cars. I make an excuse to go on date with Rahul. I left towards the classroom after confirmation my friend leaves college. As I was walking in the hallway I looked at a girl standing in the window looking inside my classroom and when she noticed me she started walking on her way. I didn't give much thought to it. I entered the classroom and saw that rahul was sleeping on the desk. Maybe he is tired from the lectures. I get closer to him without making any noise and sit quietly near him. I never see his face closely but I noticed now, he has good face features. High nose, long eyelashes. He is good looking I also noticed something odd about his glasses. It seems foggy I try to remove them slowly.
Huh! Oh sorry I fell asleep, when did you get here. He said getting up and adjusting his glasses. That startled me I made a small jump on my seat but thanks to my modeling career I put my nothing is happened here on my face.
No I just got here, then shall we go? I questioned
Yeah let's go.
As I planned we went to McDonalds. We give our order and wait to get our number.
As our order gets ready I get it for both of us means me and miss Salina.
While eating I saw something was on Salina's face.
You get some ketchup of your face, here, use my handkerchief. I handed my handkerchief to her.
Huh! Oh no ... How embarrassing in front of you ..... She takes my handkerchief and wipes her face.
Thank you very much. I'll give your handkerchief back to you after washing it ....
It's fine, you can keep it. You might need it again anyway.
Hey~ I'm not that sloppy of an eater! She said. I can't tell if this is naturally her or if she's just trying to be cute ...
After eating we left for a walk. I see a street stall for handmade things.
Let's see what they got I Said
Okay
We walk closer to the stall and start looking at what they got. There were a lot of things. I looked at salena. She was looking at a necklace. I slowly lean over to watch closely.
Do you like something? I will buy it for you I asked
No, it's okay
Then let's go if you don't like anything. I said
She keeps down the necklace in her hand I slowly asked the stall lady to wrap it as a gift with matching earrings. She wrapped it in a very nice box and handed it to me. I passed the money slowly but the stall lady called me in a low voice.
It costs more
What?
It costs more
Why? It's just a street stall isn't it ?
It's a real silver hand job so it's expensive here my silver working license and here is your bill.
Okay then how much it cost.
3000rs more
I already paid 1500rs but hearing this price I just got my first miny heart attack.
Here with teary eyes i give the remaining money.
What are you doing rahul let's go Salina called me who was walking ahed of me.
Yeah I'm coming I'm coming I walk fast towards salena
I got a notification on my mobile. I looked into it and I got a message from an unknown number. I don't know the number so I just ignored it and put the mobile into my pocket.
Oh!
What?
Nothing I just remember I have to go somewhere
Hmmm ..... Can I ask you where? It's okay if you don't want to tell me or it's something private.
No no it's nothing like that I just remember that I have to buy a book. So I need to go to the book store. I got an address.
Fine then let's go
What do you want to come with me?
Yeah is there a problem.
No I think that would be boring for you but if you're okay with it then let's go.
As the address was written on note I followed the directions and found the book store.
It was a pretty old book store. But I like the view asthetic old classic vibe.
We entered the store and asked the owner if they had the book I wanted.
Yeah we have it but you have to wait a few minutes you can take a tour to the store if you like. It's a library too so you can read it here.
Okay we will see if we can get something interesting then.
We were walking towards book shelf. There were a lot of genres salena goes to romance genres. So I followed her.
Do you like romance novels?
No, it's my first time. It doesn't hurt to try something new.
Yeah then can I suggest one
Yeah.
So it's your first time reading a novel so you should go with short novels. Let me see
I was looking for one particular book and I immediately found it.
Here I handed the novel.
" I saw you in my dreams " what about it. She asked
It's a story of two lovers and their life as they parted ways because of an accident and met again. One type of office romance too okay.
Okay then I will read it.
Let's go then see if the owner returns or not.
We went towards the counter The owner was not there yet. We wait for a while then the owner comes with a book I want.
This one too. I handed the book that I suggested to Salina.
Wow you have a great test in books. I'm also a fan of this author. It's a real shame that he was too underrated and infamous.
Yeah it's a real shame. He is diamond in the rough. I also read his another work too.
Two fans of unknown author salena said
Ohh please call me diehearted fan owner said.
Me too I said.
Okay okay diehearted fans can you please make a bill.
Okay here. It's 1200 rs in total.
Okay here I handed him 1500 rs and then the owner gave me 300 rs back.
Come back again we will discuss other novels too. Owner said
Yeah I will. I said and left the store. Walking towards the nearby bus stands to go back. We go to salena's living area it's pretty safe so I don't have to care So i leave her there and then move towards my home.
