"Well we haven't got anything done today, so from tomorrow, it will be all focus and nothing more. Good afternoon everyone."
With that everyone began to put anything they had taken out, away. Arnav looked around the room and his eyes fell on a girl. She was busy reading her textbook. Arnav walked over to her. She saw his shadow over her and looked up. Instantly she stood up.
"Yes sir?"
"Miss Gupta?"
"Yes sir."
"Can you stay back please?"
"Yes sir."
With that Arnav walked away. Lavanya rushed to Khushi's side.
"Khushi, what the hell are you! Its like he doesn't affect you at all!"
"He doesn't La. He's just another man, and my lecturer!"
"Look, I know you've had your issues with men, but really, you should stop acting like you never what to be with another man again. Ok maybe not Arnav, but there are so many guys, it's like no one affects you."
"Lavanya, my hearts been broken once, I don't want it to happen again."
The bell rang and the class began to walk out, Khushi remained at her desk. Lavanya said she's waiting in the hall for her.
As Lavanya left the room, Arnav closed the door and approached Khushi.
"Miss Gupta, I was given your assignment from last semester and I must say your work is absolutely amazing!"
"Thank you, sir. I'm glad you liked it."
"I didn't like it, I loved it!"
"Thank you."
"Any way I'm not going to keep you for any longer, I'm sure you want to make the most of not having any work. I'll see you tomorrow."
With that Khushi left the room only to find Lavanya standing outside with a serious expression on her face.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Did he want your number?"
"What? NO! Why would he want my number?"
"Oh I thought he wanted your number."
"God Lavanya, get real. Do you think he's go for someone like me when Sia will practically throw herself at him. Any way he's a Harvard graduate, I'm sure he's got a girlfriend! Even if he didn't, I'm not interested!"
"Ok, ok! I get it! But you have to admit he's fit!"
"Lavanya, what do you want from me? If you want him go ahead, but I ain't interested!"
"Khushi tell me what's happened! Before we could sit and rate guys for hours but now, you've changed so much!"
"You want the truth? Then listen! Guys remind me of Nikhil. What me and him had. Every time I'm with another man I remember him. And I hate him Lavanya! Please, try to understand."
"I understand Khushi. I'm sorry I've been such a pain."
"It's ok. Lets go, I want to get into bed!"
The two girls linked arms and walked off towards the girls dormitories, not knowing what was about to unfold before them'
