~Author's POV~

“Please keep her safe and happy always, Mata Rani. She's the one whom I never want to see sad at any cost. Help me so that I don't hurt her in any way.”

As he offered the prayer to the deity, the picture framed perfectly in his mind was of Aadya.

Aadya looked around and found everyone's eyes closed. She found it a chance to look at him.

His eyes were closed, giving her the opportunity to note every minute details of his face.

Starting from his eyes to his sharp jawline.

She looked back at the deity and whispered a prayer inside her mind.

“Hey, MataRani , Sorry but today I can't concentrate on the prayer because of the person beside me. I know you have every information about me. You even know how madly I'm falling for him as the days are flying. Now, his presence is the only thing which matters to me. I can't live without his talks. So today, I am not praying for anyone but him. Please keep him happy and smiling always. Don't hurt him in any way. Please be with him as you're with me and keep him with me too or I'll be hurt”

Offering the prayer she looked back again at Avyansh who was already staring at her.

She shyly looked away. Avyansh chuckled, amused by her reaction.

Everyone scattered in groups after the prayer.

Aadya found herself immersed in a conversation with few of her neighbours.

Anisha, Eklavya,Aryan and Aisha joined her too. They'll were chatting and giggling.

Aadya noticed a girl trying to flirt with Avyansh. She felt a sudden urge to slap that girl, but she didn't.

After a while, Aadya saw a girl being touchy with him. That was enough for her.

Eklavya and Anisha noticed the anger and jealousy in her eyes, they smirked.

In no time, Aadya strode in Avyansh's direction.

“What is happening here?” She asked glaring at them.

Avyansh gulped hard, almost scared of Aadya.

“Vyan? I asked something?” She asked again.

“Aadu, she's troubling me.” Aadya nodded her head on hearing him.

“No... actually Aadya” The girl said stammering.

“Shut up! Dare you say anything. Get lost from here. If I ever see you around him you'll regret it.” Aadya said making the girl flinch and gulp harder.

“Vyan,let's go ” She held Avyansh's hand and dragged him with her.

Avyansh wasn't able to shake off the incidents which happened a while ago.

Aadya realised what she was doing and finally stopped in a corner.

“Umm... sorry for touching you” She apologized to him with her head hung low.

He held her chin up making her look in his eyes.

“You don't need to apologise to me  for anything, especially when you have the right. Got it?”

He said with his eyes filled with warmth and care.

“Hmm..” She nodded her head in response.

“ ‘You'll regret it ’..my brave sherni...” He said emphasising each word.

She slapped his arms and chuckled. “Vyan...Stop it. I was just...”

He leaned in closer to her “You were just.. What Aadu?”

“I was just helping you.” she said with a faint blush on her face.

He chuckled at her and took her in his warm embrace.

Her heart raced as she found his arms were wrapped around her.

She felt a warmth and love.

She didn't feel uncomfortable but soothing.

She finally wrapped her arms around him. She could hear his heart beating rapidly.

Avyansh was shocked by his own sudden gesture, but was happy to find the same feeling and happiness around him after years.

As he felt her arms around him, he could feel her trust on him.

World seem to disappear for them. The time has seized for both of them as they realised their feelings for eachother.

Finally, they both parted. There was a dark crimson hue on her cheeks.

His own face was heating and ears and neck turning pink but how can he miss the chance to tease her.

“Yk what Aadu, I am in love with this colour now.”Avyansh said as they were walking back.

“Which colour?” She asked confused.

“The colour of your cheeks.” He said making her blush even more.

They walked and joined Arya, Prashant ,Rudraksha, Aryan, Eklavya, Anisha, Aisha and Lakshi.

There were few aunties who were gossiping with each.

Suddenly one of them looked in Avyansh's direction and taunted

“Aaj kal ke ladke mujhe bilkul pasand nhi aate”

{ I don't like the boys of this generation}

Aadya noticed her and realised that she was the mother of the girl who was flirting with Avyansh.

So she retorted “Aunty ji aapki Umar bhi nhi hai ladke pasand karne ki”

{Aunty ji, you are not even of the age to like boys.}

Aunty's jaw dropped listening to her and she looked away with embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Arya, Prashant ,Rudraksha, Aryan, Eklavya, Anisha, Aisha and Lakshi and Avyansh were trying hard to control their laughter.

“Beta, why are you so offended?” One of those aunties asked Aadya.

“Kyunki mujhe inke shabdon ke teer kiski ore jaa rahe acche se dikh Raha tha. Mai aapko sbke samne jaleel nhi Krna chahti toh behtar hoga aap apna muh band hi rakhe toh.” Aadya said with her voice full of rage.

{Because I could clearly see whom was she targetting with her words. I do not want to shame you in front of everyone, so it would be better if you keep your mouth shut.}

Rudraksha sensing the urgency of the situation stepped in and asked Aadya “What has happened Aadu?” Because he has never seen his sister this angry.

Aadya told each and every thing to him in detail how her daughter was flirting with Avyansh and making him feel uncomfortable and then her mother taunting him.

Rudraksha glared at them and told about this to his mother Radhika ji. Because he didn't wanted to waste his time with them.

Everyone started going back. As Avyansh was leaving, Aadya gave him a warm smile and bid him.

~Avyansh's POV~

“Hey, gentleman, How are you?” A girl came in front of me.

I reluctantly ignored her because all I wanted was to steal glances of her.

“Hey, may I know your good name? So that I can know who's ignoring me?” She asked, this time touching the collar of my kurta.

I jerked her hands away.

“Behave yourself!” I said.

But she wasn't leaving before I could say anything , Aadu came.

“What is happening here?” I gulped hard listening her voice.

She looked in so much anger and her voice scared me.

“

Vyan? I asked something?” She asked again.

Hearing that nickname from her made my heart skip a beat. All I could hear was that nickname.

“Aadu, she's troubling me.” I said with a smile. She nodded her head on hearing me

“No... actually Aadya” The girl said stammering.

“Shut up! Dare you say anything. Get lost from here. If I ever see you around him you'll regret it.” Aadya said making the girl flinch and gulp harder.

“Vyan,let's go ” She held my hand and dragged me with her.

I could feel the protectiveness and possesiveness as she was holding my hand.

For a moment, it felt like she's owning me. But then she stopped at a corner and apologized.

I don't like her apologising to me.

As I embraced her, I felt heaven. For a moment I stopped breathing as she wrapped her arms around me.

Hearing her taunting those aunties and defending me, made me feel worth it and loved.

She's the one who makes me feel loved.

I don't know why but I am deeply falling in love with these carefree and loving nature of her.

I can't believe it but she's got me dancing on her fingers.

As she bid me bye, I felt a sudden urge to go and hug her again but I couldn't.

(A/n : Born to hug her but forced to not hug her. Bichara Avy.)

As I came back, I opened my gallery and saw her photos from today's and one of us together from Janmastami event.

For a while, I couldn't lower my gaze from the screen but stare at her.

I just wonder how can someone be so beautiful and breathtaking with such a pure heart?

I set that picture of her smiling as my wallpaper.

(A/n : Koi kyu karega ye humare liye?😭)

I closed my phone and went inside my room to freshen up.

I came outside and laid on my bed.

For one last time, I opened my phone and saw her pic. I just kept the phone on my chest and drifted off to sleep.

~Aadya's POV~

I couldn't help but blush at today's incidents.

I took my pen and opened my diary.

It was my usual to note down whenever Vyan does something special to me.

I pen down

‘Today he hugged me.’

I wrote down and clutched my diary to my chest, happily.

I went through the other pages where I had written the well spent memories of me and Marshmallow which I remember.

There was a page in which it was written

‘When we'll grow up we will marry eachother’

I chuckled bitterly reading it.

These are the fake promises which now are of no use. He is gone and doesn't even cares about my existence.

The flashbacks hit me harder and brought tears to my eyes.

But now everything has changed. Now I don't write anything about Marshmallow but Avyansh.

“What are you doing, sweetie?” I heard Anisha calling out.

Today she is staying with me as her parents our out of state for two days.

I closed it and kept it in the drawer, safely.

“Nothing just writing!” I said, calmly.

“You still miss him?” She asked, softly.

“No, I don't but we can't forget those memories.” I said with a faint smile.

“Hmm.. right?” She hummed and continued waise... “Today the possession and jealousy you held in your eyes for Avyansh were...”

She said with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

“Were real!” I exclaimed. “Ohhoo” she cooed making me blush.

“Call Zoya. I want to share something important.” I said and took a deep breath.

“Kya hai?” Zoya snapped indignantly.

“I want to share something important.” My tone carried seriousness.

“Yes!” She said.

“I wanted to tell you both that....I've feelings for Avyansh.” I said inhaling a deep breath.

“WHAT????” They both screamed together making me flinch.

“Yes...I'm in love with Avyansh, deeply and madly. He has given me every reason to fall in love with him. I never felt this way for anyone, not even for Marshmallow.” I confessed my true feelings for him with pride.

“Yes!!!!” Zoya screamed making both us flinch because of which Anisha threw the phone on bed.

We both looked at eachother and then at the phone. “Jahil aurat! Phone would have been broken because of your shouting." I remarked.

“I am so happy for you Aadu. Congratulations!!! And Avyansh isn't a bad guy. I've talked to him he's very nice.” Zoya said.

“Yes...his nature too... But when are you going to tell him??” Anisha asked.

Tension etched in my brows. “On the last day of his boards” I said to which Anisha nodded her head in approval.

“And what about your plan of marrying to your marshmallow..hn. What if he comes back?” Zoya teased.

“Chup kar...What can I do?” I pouted and then we all started laughing and giggling.

This night was the most comforting one for me.

~Author's POV~

The classroom was buzzing with the anticipation of the students as everyone chatted about the upcoming farewell of Class 12th.

Miss, Shriya's voice cut through the chatter. Gathering their attention towards her.

“I hope you'll plan the best farewell for your seniors ” She said making the children say yes.

“Aadya, Have you collected the names of the interested students?” Miss Shriya asked with a smile.

“Yes, Ma'am, I've submitted it also” Aadya said with the same smile.

“Ok..so all the best! Now you all can go.” She said making the day come to an end.

Aadya was happy and moreover, excited too. It was still 2 months for the farewell but still they were practicing beforehand.

________________🦚______________

* In coaching

“Sir!! this question please.” Aadya called out.

He came and started solving that question. But when Sir was taking the pen from her.

His hand brushed with her fingers. Making Avyansh's grip tightened on his pen.

After sir had gone, Aadya looked in his direction. “What happened , Vyan?”

Hearing that nickname he melted.“You could've asked the same from me too..” He said with a smile.

“Arey..you were busy so I thought not to bother you.” Aadya said with a pout.

“Ohk”

Aadya sensed someone staring at her. She turned to look around and found Avyansh was staring at her.

She blushed and looked away shyly. After a few minutes when she noticed he was still looking at her.

She raised an eyebrow. He chuckled and nodded his head.

Soon, they all left as the time was over.

They all were walking down the street. With Avyansh and Aadya together, Zoya and Arya.

Eklavya and Anisha just staring at their bestfriends blankly.

They nodded their head followed them. Soon, they saw a icecream parlour.

“Guys..let's eat ice-cream!” Anisha suggested to which all the nodded their head.

As Eklavya and Arya went to the parlour, a boy approached Aadya.

“Hey butterfly! Wanna date me?”  The boy asked Aadya.

“No” Aadya said ruining his smile.

“Why? Please!” The boy said touching Aadya's hand, enough for Avyansh to beat the shit out of him.

“Wo kya bus pe chadi wali titli hai jo butterfly bol rha hai, aur ise date karega” Avyansh chuckled bitterly saying the last sentence.

{Is she a butterfly on the bus that you're calling her butterfly, and you will date her?}

“Apni sakal dekhi hai kadu si to hai, Kaha raja bhog kaha gangu teli,Chal mai tujhe date krwata hu!” Avyansh said making the big run immediately.

{ Have you ever seen your face, it looks like pumpkin,Where is Raja Bhoj and where is Gangu Teli?Come let me show the real date.}

While others were looking at him blankly. Meanwhile Arya was shocked to see his bestfriend like this for the first time.

Avyansh turned to Aadya and asked“Aadu, you're fine, right?”

“Yes,Vyan” She nodded her head still in shock.

Zoya nudged Arya and said

“Mujhe kuch jalne ki smell aa rhi hai”

{I smell something is burning }

Eklavya replied blankly staring at them. “Mujhe bhi!”

{Me too}

“Hnn...Lgta hai kuch bhot buri tarah jal raha hai” Anisha commented, smirking.

{Hmm..It looks like something is burning very badly }

“Hn... Avyansh ka dil ” Arya said looking shocked at the scene before him.

{Yes... Avyansh's heart!}

Arya was shocked to hear that nickname and Avyansh's words, which seem too funny but not at this moment.

“Aadu, icecream..” Eklavya forwarded her favourite chocolate icecream towards Aadya.

“Bhai, are you okay?" Arya asked touching Avyansh's forehead.

"Haan! Why?" Avyansh replied, slightly confused.

“What was that?” Arya asked. “What ... didn't you see he was misbehaving with her.”Avyansh said making Arya smirk.

“Hmm..yeah” Arya hummed giving a knowing smile to Avyansh.

Avyansh came back home and after having his dinner, he went to study.

After a session he looked at the clock, It was 11:55 pm. He sighed heavily, completely exhausted by the session.

He opened his phone and found a notification on Instagram. He opened it and saw Aadya's story.

It was of Today, of them eating ice-cream. He looked at their picture and took a screenshot of it.

“I don't know but you're too special Mishri. I can't hate or dislike a single thing about you. It's just makes me fall even more for you.” Glancing at her pic one more time he kept it aside and drifted off to sleep.
