Questioning Myself

Reya ran behind me as I stormed towards the girls hostel

" Eric is a bully, but he respects Lian and his friends " She  wrapped her hand over my shoulder

"I don't like that guy" I snarled

"Not your fault... he is a **** " Reya  laughed at her own comment

"I don't like him either but Lian is a good friend of him so I don't wanna make Lian sad" Reya added

"Where's room number 408? " I asked

"4th floor immediate left to the stairs.. Want me to come with you" She said with a warm smile

"Nope... I can manage" I replied stepping towards the stairs

"Lidia... Be careful with your roommate" Reya added as I was about to take the stairs

"Why? Is she a bully too" I asked raising my brow

"A victim actually, " She chuckled bitterly

"Uh?" confusion clear on my face

"Victim of Eric's obsession.. I have to admit , that girl is so otherworldly beautiful that.. I wished I could date her but I am into guys though" She  smiled shaking her head in disappointment

"So ? " I added crossing my hands

" So.... Don't be close with her it will piss off Eric This poor girl didn't have any friends because of that psycho "she replied waving me a good bye opening her room door

" See you tomorrow "I waved her back

"Haa.. If you need anything just call me I am just two floors away" She hugged me before going in

"Thanks reya" I hugged back and walked towards the room

I see a girl in her shorts holding a bottle in her hand walking in front of me in the corridor frequently checking on me from the corner of her eye

She stopped and turned back as I stood in front of my room

" Are you following me?what do you want stalker? " She said tightly gripping her bottle a little frightened but trying to act tough

"Umm... Hi.... roommate? " I frowned as I walked past in to the room leaving her in suprise

"So.. Umm.. You are really a new join? " She said fiddling her fingers for which I nodded as her eyes widen realizing her rude behavior earlier

"I am sorry about earlier" She said tucking her hair behind her ear walking closer to me

The warm light in the room defined her perfect facial features she looks even more beautiful than earlier her hair tied into a messy bun makes her face more prominent her strands were curled a little touching her cheeks making her look cuter

"No problem maya" I replied smiling at her cute guilty face

"Uh?.. How do you..." She said with a confused look

"Apology accepted and before you thank me for my kindness your welcome" I replied sitting on the corner of bed as she chuckled a bit for my statement as I gave her id

"If you didn't had your dinner you must hurry before the cafeteria closes" She added sitting in the middle of her bed

"I am not hungry though i'll just have some snacks" I replied by filling my cupboard with my clothes

"Ever tried an Indian snack? " She said grabbing a box from her desk

"No" I shook my head

"Wanna give it a try? " She said offering a box full of fluffy thingies

I walked towards her bed and took a piece of soft dessert a bite

"Wow it's so sweet.. It tastes like milk.. What is it? " My brain popped for a moment as the rich flavour filled my mouth

" It's kova.. Yeah it's made from milk"she said tapping her hands on the bed gesturing me to sit

"Do you like it? " She asked curiously

"I love it" I replied for which she clapped her hands like a kid out of happiness

"Want to try other one? " She said excitedly

"Sure" I replied fighting hard to take my eyes of from her smile

Damn how can someone look so adorable, she has such a pure smile, innocent face

We talked for a while about random stuff I got along with her so well within a few minutes of our talk we felt like we are long lost friends reunited again

I figured out we are completely opposite poles by our nature she is religious, kind, believes in karma, loves her family, sensitive towards others feelings,cares everyone deeply

Her character perfectly fit her beauty no wonder Eric is obsessed with her

" Hey.. I don't wanna be rude but what's your deal with this Eric guy "I asked trying to sound as polite as possible but failed

" Umm.. I met him in the library on our first day since then he's been a little clingy following me everywhere at first I thought he wanted us to be friends but after a few days he proposed to me "she said her face dropped dull

" I rejected him in front of everyone so he started to bully me and whoever I am friends with so everyone stopped talking to me " She said with tears filled eyes ,her voice quivered

"I miss my family I feel lonely it's my first time being away from them on top of that Eric bothering me, having no friends, it's just too much for me" She added sniffing as her fingers draw patterns on the sheets while she looks down to avoid eye contact

"You can talk to me about everything" I replied wiping her tears

"But Eric.. " Before she say something I put my finger on her lips to make her stop

"I am not afraid of a stupid bully"I said protectively

" Wow... You sound so brave"she replied chuckling at my words

" Well... I act brave too" I replied tucking her strands behind her ears

Our eyes met for the first time she looked so vulnerable looking back in to my eyes we lost track of the time staring at each other

Strangely looking into her eyes calmed me down I can hear my heart beat clearly

This moment seems so beautiful that I wanna Cease it but suddenly her phone beeped breaking our little weird moment

"Umm.. Sorry " She said looking away from me here cheeks flushed

"I am sleepy let's talk tomorrow"i Lied down on my bed closing my eyes as she turned of the lights

'Am I attracted to her? How can I? I am sure I am straight but this girl is swirling my heart , is it possible that I am bi? If I am why didn't I ever attracted to any girl before? 'All these questions took over my head but I was too tired to look for answers and I drifted to sleep
