Chapter no.05
Aaron
Message?? What does she want now?? * frowns*
Aaron frowns and throws his phone onto his bed.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Aaron open the door. I want to speak with you.
Aaron
I know what you are going to say! But right now, I don't have the energy to listen to your nagging. ( Aaron has one hand on his forehead as if his head is aching)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Nagging?? My concern is nagging to you. Aaron, open the door now, Or else I'm not going to leave. ( with angry voice and high tone)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Aaron come out and answer my question. You didn't cheat on her, Right? If you don't come out now, I am going to assume that the rumors are true.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Aaron explain yourself. Come out now . ( loudly)
Aaron
Fine, come inside. But next time don't make a fuss like that. (with annoyed expression)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Sorry! Now are you going to explain what's happening between you and Noa? ( eagerly)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
She is the goddess. How can anybody leave a beauty like her and cheat?
Neel(Aaron's friend)
I know you will not cheat on her. There has to be a misunderstanding.
Aaron
Relax, Neel. I will explain this to you, but first, you have to calm down.
Aaron
well, it's not true that I cheated on her.
Aaron
It was all Caleb's plan to get revenge on me.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
I know that you wouldn't do such a thing then, didn't you explain this to Noa? I think she will believe her boyfriend and then some Photoshop pictures.
Aaron
I didn't say that those were photoshops.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
What? Are you saying that you were flirting with some girl and that wasn't cheating ? ( with an angry voice and high tone)
Aaron
Not Flirting? I was just helping her. She bumped into me and broke her ankle. I was just helping her and that's when those pictures were taken.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Helping? What those pictures showed were too intimate for merely helping someone?
Aaron
I know but that girl was too clingy and acting fragile as if some truck had run over her. I didn't had much of a choice but to take care of her.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
But? Anyway, why didn't you explain this to Noa properly and let this cheating crap spread all over the school?
Aaron
Even if I had explained this she wouldn't have believed me. She thinks that all those pictures show the truth and I am the one who posted those pictures so that I can break up with her.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
What are you saying? I don't get it. Why would she think that you are her boyfriend, and you love each other? Are you saying that she thinks you aren't that trustworthy, or is she a suspicious type of girlfriend?
Aaron
Love?? ... Hahaha... I think it's time I show you what my relationship with Noa was like??
Aaron
Here, read this; I got these messages just a moment ago.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Payment?....fake dates? Aaron, what is going on here? I am totally confused.
Aaron
First of all, promise me that you believe anything I say, no matter how abstract it sounds.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Promise. Anyway, I don't think you have any reason to lie to me.
Aaron
As you know, I have been working part-time jobs for 5-6 years so that I can pay for school fees and daily necessities to help my mom. But it was never enough, so during vacations, I took the job of teaching students who had been preparing for entrance exams and got a job to tuition Noa who had already failed the exams once and was stubborn about not going to any private institutions for the same.
Aaron
Her father gave me that job since we are not that far apart in age, and he was impressed as I got into one of the most famous schools on scholarship.
Aaron
At First, Noa was not friendly with me, but later, we grew close to each other and eventually became friends.
Aaron
But Noa started liking me, but I wasn't able to reciprocate her feelings. One day, she told me that she needed my help with something, but when I arrived at that location, she introduced me as her boyfriend to her friends and told me to pretend to be her boyfriend; I thought that was a one-time thing and it wouldn't happen again.
Aaron
Noa told me that if I wanted to keep my job, I had to act like I was her boyfriend, and she would pay for that as well. I didn't want to lose my job that' s why I decided to take the offer.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
And then...(with desperation )
Aaron
After some time, news about us dating spread to school, and I was not happy about it, we had many fights regarding this as I knew she was the one who was doing all this so that she could pressure me into dating her for real.
Aaron
Slowly we started losing our trust in each other and I think Caleb took this opportunity and did all those things.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Caleb? I know he sees you as a rival Since you took his position as Class president and got admitted to the school with the highest marks. But I would have never imagined he would do something like this just because he doesn't want to appear inferior in front of you .
Aaron
I know, right? I was fine until he was playing small pranks on me; but this time, he crossed the line he shouldn't have.
Aaron
But who am I? To criticize him when I was using Noa's feelings. At first, I reacted like it wasn't right to deceive everyone into thinking that we were dating, but after some time, I enjoyed the attention and envy I was getting and at some point, I started thinking of this relationship as a tool that prevented anyone from looking down on me.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
That may be true but I don't think you were using anybody's feelings. Noa was clearly the one who created this whole situation. You don't have to feel guilty about it.
Aaron
Yeah, I know, but I don't want to lose a friend due to some misunderstanding, and I know that it's cruel of me to ask for friendship from someone who has genuine feelings for me and has those feelings brutally crushed. But, I still want to make things right.
Aaron
Neel, will you help me with this? You are the only one I can rely on and that's why I told you all this in the first place.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Of course, you can count on me.
Aaron
And Neel, I know you have feelings for Noa and it's not some childish crush as you show it to be. I truly wish Noa could be with someone who has feelings for her too.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
.... ( Neel had a shocked look on his face)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
I will try my best.(with hesitation)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Geez, Aaron you can be so cheesy sometimes. ( trying to change the mood)
Aaron
I know right? Now that you have mentioned it I am getting goosebumps.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Thinking about how Noa was trying so hard to make you fall in love with her even rock would have melted. How are you not affected? ( chuckles)
Aaron
Maybe, she is not my type.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Not your type? She has everything that any guy wishes to have in a girlfriend. She is every guy's ideal type.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
( Smirks) Have you ever thought about that you might not be into girls? Maybe you like guys ? (while holding back his laughter)
Aaron
*in mind* What nonsense is that? I know you are trying to change the topic but...
An idea suddenly pops in his head.
Aaron
*teases* Yeah, You are right. (Aaron slowly starts moving towards him).
Neel's expression suddenly changes. He looks at Aaron with a confused look on his face.
Aaron
Why don't we test if I am really into guys or not?
Neel(Aaron's friend)
What? I mean how?
Aaron
How? Let's try kissing.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
What? You mean you and me? Are you out of your mind? I was only joking, stay away from me.
Neel end up leaning near the edge of the bed;he suddenly trips and fell backwards.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Woooo...wooo
Aaron
Neel...( trying to catch him from fell)
Aaron also trips and falls onto Neel and at the same time Eli enters the room.
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
Brother, I came to tell you.....aaaaa... ohh
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
(with a timid and hushed voice)I didn't see anything. Please don't mind me.
She gets out of the room and shuts the door
Eli (Aaron's Sister)
I didn't see anything
I didn't hear anything
I don't know anything
(with a mischievous voice)
They both look towards each other while lying in the same position, and then in the very next sec, they stood up and sit far away from each other.
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Hahaha.. haha
Aaron
Hey, this is all your fault. ( continuously laughing)
Neel(Aaron's friend)
How is this my fault?..... You made me fall ( still laughing)
Aaron
Hahaha... Fine, it's my fault; Happy now ... Damn...my stomach started to hurt from all this laughing
Neel(Aaron's friend)
Mine too
