The Love Maze

Chapter 2

Aditi's POV

Each passing second,made me more anxious and most importantly angry on a very particular person

"He hasn't arrived,yet?",Rishi spoke breaking the silence

"What do you expect? It's Vivan we're talking about",I replied rolling my eyes

He just laughed it off, leaning against the car

"Sorry guys!!!I am late..",Vivan came running down the doorway

"Again!!!",I added as he smiled shyly

"Calm down,boo bear.A handsome boy like me needs some time to get ready",he replied smugly

"Yeah definitely... you'll need an entire day to cover up your trashy face",I shot back at him with a grin

"Umm...hello?Guys?... I'm right here, remember?",Rishi spoke clearing his throat

We both now glared at him, bviously for interrupting us

"Okay...I understand but we're running late.Can we just reschedule your epic diss off for later?",he said trying to make peace

"Alright..",Vivan said as he walked towards the car

"Hold up!!! It's my turn on the front seat",I yelled as he made a face at me

"These kids...",I smiled as I heard Rishi curse under his breath

The rest of the ride went quietly as Rishi drove with me and Vivan both on the back seat

Yess!!!Ri justified it by saying he prefers to stay neutral

"We're here folks!!Try to behave like seniors",Rishi teased getting off the car,ignoring my glares

I looked at the dumbo sat beside me and we seemed to share the same expression

"Once I get my licence, it's over for him",I commented as Vivan chuckled loudly

"We can't wait for an eternity,you know",he replied mockingly

I hit him in the chest,walking out of the car

As I got closer to the hallway,I felt overwhelmed by the start of another year

"Dee?You still mad?",the usually irritating voice now sounded calm and soft

"Nah...just a bit nervous",I replied smiling.

He just started at me with a questioning look

"Don't be... you've got me and Ri",he replied giving me a comforting smile

We were about to move when I spotted Rishi walking over towards us with a paper in his hand

"Took you guys long enough..."he said as we smiled sheepishly

It would be against nature if we were on time for anything

"But anyways-Here's the thing,Grab your schedule at the academic office",he spoke as if he was rushing somewhere

"And inform everyone you see,cuz the advisor is going mad....Okay??I'll....."

"Arey!!Where are you going?"Vivan questioned cluelessly

"Just got to know I've got a creative writing workshop today.So....",he paused flaunting his schedule

"So you got off on the first day!?",I asked narrowing my eyes

I mean, it's not fair that he gets to bunk the classes.

Well,it may not be technically bunking but still he gets it
