[09] - Snippets Of His World

Thousands of thoughts made chaos in Akshara's mind. She silently prayed for Shefali to say no to Abhimanyu as she clearly didn't want to go anywhere alone with him.

What does he out of a sudden want to show me? Is he plotting something? Maybe a payback for puncturing the tyres? Oh God, no!! Akshara was lost in deep thoughts, and her anxiety was about to shoot when she heard shefali spoke.

"Yes, sure, why not!" Shefali gave him the permission, and Akshara looked at her with wide eyes.

"But I don't..." Before she could speak, she was cut off.

"What's the issue, Akshara? Are you scared of me or something?" Abhimanyu smirked at her and immediately saw Akshara's facial features turned from an anxious one to bold one.

"Akshara Goenka isn't scared of anyone!" Akshara stood up from the floor where earlier she and Shefali were managing Shivu's toys.

"So, shall we?" Abhimanyu motioned her to walk with him. She took slow steps as she fipped her hair to the other side before walking past him, and he smiled at her antics while Shefali jokingly gave Abhimayu a 'You're so dead' look.

"So what is it that you want to show me, Dr. Abhimanyu?" Akshara asked as they both were now walking through the corridor with Abhimanyu a little ahead, and Akshara was following him behind.

"Abhimanyu. Since we are not at college right now, you can call me Abhimanyu. Also, you're my competitor for the music competition so...." Abhimanyu turned to look at her for a minute as they stopped outside the room before he opened the door and motioned Akshara to go inside.

Unsure of what was about to get in front of her, Akshara cautiously made her way inside the room as Abhimanyu followed behind. As soon as the lights were hit, she saw it was more of a little music room. An unknown smile appeared on her lips as she saw all the musical instruments in an awe. The walls were covered with the legendary musicians while the flooring of the room had music symbols on it.

"This is so cool!!" Akshara exclaimed excitedly as she looked around in an awe.

"I know, right!! I've put so much effort into its build-up and, of course, not without the help of my band mates." Abhimanyu said.

"It's so exciting to have a band. You're so lucky!! I wish I was a part of a band, too, but sadly, I can't prioritize that right now." Akshara looked down sadly.

"You really love music a lot na?" Abhimanyu couldn't help but admire the sparkle in her eyes, which was there because of her passion for music.

"Love? It's my whole damn life, Abhimanyu!!" Akshara told him, and he smiled at her.

"God, your name is too long. I'm just gonna call you Abhi from now on." Akshara said, and he chuckled at her before moving closer to her as he stood right in front of her.

"So, Dr. Abhimanyu wasn't a long name, but just Abhimanyu is?? Just say you want to give me a pet name, isn't it Akshara?" He whispered in his deep voice, and there it was yet again, Akshara getting chills due to their closeness as she looked down to hide the redness of her cheeks.

"Is it the normal shade of your cheeks?" He teased her as Akshara turned around to calm down her nerves.

"Uh.. I should leave now. I've to meet Muskan." She again turned around to face him and saw his face dim.

"But you just got here." Abhimanyu said, as he got a little sad.

"It's been an hour and thirty minutes, Abhimanyu." Akshara reminded him.

"Abhi. I like it when you call me Abhi. Stick to it." He winked at her, and she shook her head at him.

"I'll go say bye to Shefali, then I'll leave." Akshara started moving out only to be stopped by Abhimanyu.

"Hurry. I'll be waiting outside." He told her, and she turned to look at him, giving him a questioning look as she raised her eyebrow at him.

"What? I'm gonna drive you to wherever Muskan lives." He replied, and Akshara closed her eyes in frustration.

"You don't need to...."

"I'm not asking you. Go bid bye to Shivu and bhabhi. I'm waiting outside." By saying this, he left the room.

"Why is he being so dominating?" Akshara huffed.

"Thank you for dropping me." Akshara said as Abhimanyu parked the car outside the college hostel.

"Mention not. Couldn't let you go alone." Abhimanyu blurted out as Akshara looked on.

"I mean... You're our guest. Plus, you're bhabhi's friend too, so.... I didn't mean it like that... I..."

"Abhi." She placed her hand on his bicep in order to stop his blabbering.

He immediately went quiet as she called him out. Before her, he never thought anyone calling him 'Abhi' would have such a sweet ring to it. He could hear her calling his name the whole day and still wouldn't get tired of it.

"You don't need to explain much. I get it." She smiled at him, and he nervously smiled back at her before looking at his bicep where her arm was still placed. He looked at her, and they both had an eyelock before it was interrupted by the ringing of Abhimanyu's phone call.

"Ehm... I better go. Bye." Akshara said as she got out of the car.

Abhimanyu kept looking while totally ignoring his phone, which was still ringing. Akshara turned around and gave him one last glance before moving inside the hostel, and Abhimanyu soon drove off, too.
