Ivaan Singh~

I glanced at Akira, who had been sleeping through the entire free period after our last conversation. She must be tiredโ€ฆ She ran so much. Her legs must be killing her, I thought.

The lunch bell rang. A few boys sprinted out of the classroom. Akiraโ€™s friends were hugging each other like they were separated by seven oceans.

I looked back at Akira. She hadnโ€™t joined the chaos and was still sleeping peacefully. But peace never lasted long.

Riva and Kriti started calling her. She turned her head.

โ€œI donโ€™t want to go. Let me sleep,โ€ she said.

โ€œDonโ€™t be lazy,โ€ Kriti scolded.

Manya grabbed her water bottle and splashed her face.

โ€œShit,โ€ Akira muttered, sitting up and rubbing her face with her hands.

โ€œNow get up.โ€ Akira shook her head.

โ€œI told you, naaโ€ฆ I canโ€™t even walk right now.โ€

โ€œAkiraaaaโ€ฆโ€ the trio shouted, grabbing her hands to drag her along. But she held onto my bicep.

โ€œHushโ€ฆ Iโ€™m not coming with you all. Trust me, Iโ€™ll surely die if I walk to the canteen.โ€ I looked down at her hands wrapped around my bicep.

โ€œOkay, stay there.โ€ They left. Akira waved at them and laid her head back down on the table. My heart started racing, and I tapped lightly over my chest.

โ€œAise kya dekh rahe ho?โ€ she asked.

[What are you staring at?]

I shook my head and picked up my pen.

โ€œI wanted to go with them.โ€ She pouted. โ€œIโ€™m really hungry, but I donโ€™t want to walk anymore,โ€ she added, tapping her nails on the table.

I thought for a second, then opened my bag and pulled out my lunch box. I pushed it toward her.

โ€œMere liye?โ€ she asked, pointing at herselfโ€”the same finger she had been tapping on the table.

[For me?]

I pressed my lips together and nodded. She sat upright, pulled her chair closer, and clapped her hands excitedly.

She opened the lunch box, unwrapped the parathas, and lifted the lid of a smaller box filled with paneer ki sabzi.

โ€œBhaag khul gaye!โ€ she exclaimed, looking up with a grin, then attacked the food.

I suppressed a laugh at her antics.

โ€œUmโ€ฆ sor-sollie,โ€ she said between bites.

[Umโ€ฆ sorry-sorry]

โ€œCome, come,โ€ she gestured, inviting me to taste my own lunch. โ€œThank you so much,โ€ she smiled as she closed the box after we finished eating.

โ€œAb mujhe haath bhi dhone jaana padega.โ€

[Now I have to go wash my hands.]

I smiled and grabbed my water bottle.

โ€œVaha tak toh chal sakti ho na?โ€ I asked, pointing near the windowโ€”just one step away from our seat.

[You can walk up there, right?]

She nodded and got up. I held her hands and poured water on them.

โ€œRub it.โ€

โ€œHuh?โ€ Her eyes widened in horror. I tapped her head.

โ€œBudhu, rub your hands.โ€

[Idiot]

โ€œOhhโ€ฆโ€ she laughed nervously and started rubbing her hands while I poured water. I then set the bottle aside and cleaned her hands with a handkerchief.

โ€œBachi nahi hoon mai.โ€

[Iโ€™m not a kid.]

โ€œLag toh rahi ho par.โ€

[But you look like one.]
