BARRISTER BABU- One shots1,353 words~7 min read

As they walked towards the hall, Bondita found herself looking at Anirudh constantly. She couldn't explain it, but his presence made her very nervous and anxious. They walked through the corridor and finally entered the hall.

Bondita's heart skipped a beat as she noticed girls drooling over Anirudh. She looked away quickly, this was exactly what she had been avoiding. It was so weird to feel this way considering her best friend was the one getting the attention, but she couldn't help it. She had always been attracted to him, and the fact that other girls found him attractive as well, put a wrench in her emotions.

The sight of the popular girl Myra approaching Anirudh and hugging him without notice sent a shock wave throughout her body. The thought of another girl touching him made her jealous; she hated it.

She believed that she was his girlfriend.

She watched the duo as they stood close together, the popular girl's arms were draped around his neck, and she was laughing flirtatiously. Her jealousy was increasing with every passing second, she had thought she had accepted that her best friend was no longer single, but the sight of the popular girl flirting with him sent her over the edge.

As they talked, Myra looked at Bondita and smirked who couldn't help but watch the duo. She was filled with jealousy as she noticed the girl leaning in closer, and Anirudh not stopping her.

Myra kept hanging around him, and Anirudh didn't seem to mind her flirting. Her jealousy had reached its peak; she couldn't watch this anymore.

She took a deep breath and tried to control her emotions as she moved away from the duo. She didn't want to look at them anymore, as her jealousy was increasing. She couldn't be around them, not when they were so openly flirting in front of her.

She kept walking through the crowd trying to get as far as possible, but everywhere she looked, Myra was hugging him, laughing, and flirting with him. It was clear that he was enjoying her company, which made her angrier.

What made her even more angry was that she couldn't seem to find a way to escape the situation. She had lost her composure completely, her hands were clenched and her face was flushed, she had no idea how she'd get through the rest of the day without exploding.

She walked out of the hall and found herself outside, the fresh air helped her calm down a little. She leaned against the wall and tried to take deep breaths, she wasn't sure what she should do next. But at least she wouldn't have to watch Anirudh and Myra flirt anymore.

Anirudh's Pov

I was inside the graduation hall, waiting for my moment to get called up on stage. I was keeping myself occupied by talking to my friends and joking around. But my mind was occupied with thoughts of Bondita, I knew she would be there as well, but I had no idea why she had been avoiding me all week long.

Just then, a pretty girl walked up to me and hugged me out of nowhere. She was the popular girl at school, and she had been crushing on me for the longest time. I didlly pay attention to her, but the way she was hugging me, made it clear that she thought we were dating.

Since she had been avoiding me for the whole week, this was my chance to test her. I knew for a fact that she was attracted to me, so I played along with the popular girl's flirtation.

I hugged her back and chuckled softly at her jokes. The more we interacted, the more Bondita's face would flush with jealousy. I knew she was watching us from afar, and I wanted to see the expression on her face.

Her jealousy was obvious, I couldn't take my eyes off the way her expression hardened as she watched me interacting with the popular girl. It was quite satisfying to see her get jealous, I knew she had feelings for me.

She had left the hall, presumably out of jealousy. The last thing I wanted was to hurt her in any sort of way, but I couldn't resist the urge to push her jealousy to the limit. I had to see how far she would go to deny her feelings for me.

I continued flirting with the popular girl whose name I still don't know, and while doing so, I spotted Bondita standing beside the wall, completely ignoring us. A smile appeared on my face as I watched her trying hard not to look at us.

A sharp pain shot through my heart as I spotted a single tear rolling down her cheek. I had enjoyed pushing her jealousy, but it was too much to see her crying. It made me feel like the worst person in the world ...

I had wanted to go comfort her but the popular girl's hold on me had only grown stronger, it was hard to escape. I kept trying to shake her off me but every time I did, she would just wrap her arms around my neck again.

I snapped and pushed her away abruptly. I couldn't stand to see Bondita cry anymore. I started walking in her direction, I couldn't let her leave like this. I had to say something, anything, to make her feel better; even if it meant apologizing to her for my behaviour.

She looked at me taken aback, but as she was about to speak, I held a finger up before she could say something.

"Not a word...I think you've done enough hugging now." I glared at her as she tried to protest but I interrupted her by saying, "Just leave me alone."

The popular girl looked shocked at my sudden irritation, she was used to getting whatever she wanted from me. When she saw that I was not giving in easily she finally gave in and left without protest. I was annoyed with her for flirting with me so openly, and I was also annoyed at myself for playing along with it.

I looked across the hall, desperately trying to locate Bondita but I couldn't see her anywhere. That made me anxious, I had never seen her this upset before. She had always been so calm and collected, it pained me to see her cry.

I finally spotted her as she hurried towards the exit. I immediately ran after her, she had disappeared out of the building by the time I got there. I kept trying to find her but the crowd was so dense, I had no idea where she could have disappeared to.

I kept searching for her, but she was nowhere to be found. I checked every exit, and every possible place she could have gone, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I was getting desperate, I wanted to find her and talk to her.

Finally, I spotted her standing outside the main gate, she was alone and seemed to be looking at the ground. I quickly ran up to her, but just as I was about to speak, she turned around and walked away without stopping.

"Bondita, wait!" I shouted after her, but she didn't even acknowledge me. She just kept walking, her hand was over her face as though she was trying to block out the world. I didn't want her to walk away without talking to me.

"Bondita stop, please!" I yelled as I ran after her, but she still didn't stop. I didn't know what to do, she seemed too upset to even acknowledge me. Even saying I was sorry wouldn't be enough at this point.

"Bondita! Will you just stop for a second!" I cried out as I rushed to catch up with her. "Would you just hear me out at least?" But she didn't stop. She didn't even look back.

"Bondita! Main tumse pyar karta hu!! please stop. I love you Bondu!!" I shouted.
