When Korean Met Bangali :) [KTH]

Splashing the brush on the white canvas she started to do her work.

"What you are going to draw?" Riya started to her white canvas then looking at Raunak, who just asked her

"Don't know" Riya shrugged her shoulder, putting her two hands together, on the air like she is capturing something.

"Yeah I'm gonna paint the sky, it's pretty today" a satisfying smile spread across her face.

On the other hand Debadrita who was painting without her acknowledge, though a small smile was playing there. Dipping her brush in the black colour, she paint someone, someone she is missing.

"Deba, what are you painting?" Riya started at Debadrita but she was in her own world. She was like this from the morning they have met. Her mind was still playing what he said last night and what she replied to him.

"Deba, you there" Riya shook Debadrita's shoulder to take her back in this world.

"Huh- yeah" she looked at Riya, who was looking at Debadrita's canvas.

"Who's this?" Riya asked narrowing her eyes. "Oh my gosh who's this, Deb?" Raunak who was flirting with a girl till now asked after seeing the painting.

She looked at her canvas, paused as she saw whom she have drawn.

The boy was smiling on the painting, fluffy hair. The painting was her feelings, how she wanted to see his smile face, how she wanted to touch his fluffy hair, how she wanted to kiss those pink lips. But she was too stubborn to admit it.

"Huh- no one." Her eyes blurred, she shook her head, blinked her eyes to prevent the tears to fall down.

"Hey you okay?" Riya worried, putting her hands on Debadrita's shoulder she asked.

Debadrita nodded "excuse me, I need to use washroom"

"Pass me the sauce Riya" Raunak's voice was faint in the chattering cafe. After the earlier incident they were all quite no one asked anything to Debadrita. Debadrita was more quite than usual anyone can say she was having something on her mind.

"We should go to see a movie?" Raunak said it like question trying to lift the tension going on with Debadrita.

"Yeah we should, right Deba?" Riya chimed too trying to cheer up Debadrita.

They were friends for so many days, months but never seen Debadrita like this before ever.

"I'm not in a mood today you guys go" Debadrita played with her food.

"It will be no fun if you don't go" Riya said "and most important thing is I don't want to go with this dork" Riya added this quickly, rolling her eyes at Raunak

"And who wants to go with you?" Raunak said with a sarcastic smile.

"I'm going home" Debadrita said looking at her unfinished meal. Riya and Raunak looked at eachother, they nodded understanding the situation.

"Call us after you get home" Riya said looking concern for her friend. Debadrita left without any word.

Sitting on her bed Debadrita was absent mindly scrolling her phone when her mother came saying "the dinner is ready" She was not in a mood to eat but didn't want to worry her parents so she said "yes, let's go"

"Eat the fish your maa made it very delicious today" her father said after munching his rooti.

"You are saying like i don't cook good food everyday" her mother narrowed her eyes glaring at her husband.
