| Agastya |
The light is dim, and the melodious music fills the gaps between air, all eyes rest on us - me and Lavanya. The girl who's has tricked me with her beauty and compassion. My one hand rests on her petite waist, and the other holds her soft hand, firmly. She moves back, I move forward, as per the notes of the music, matching our steps. Her lips are curved into a full smile, her eyes are shining bright the way every time they do when I do the bare minimum for her.
She was telling me that her academy announced a dance session and all the students had to bring partners, so when I asked her for tonight's dance, she was ecastic to find my partnership.
As she comes back to me, I dip her, her back arcs elegantly and when she rises up, we both lean in, almost giving into the kiss, I was dying for.
"Agastya! Sorry I made you wait..." Lavanya's voice brings me out of my daydream.
I find her approaching me, at the front of the academy, in a fancy deep blue shirt paired with black pants.
Was she busy?
"Oh! Lavanya where were you..." I walk quickly. We are late for the session.
"I messaged you that I won't be coming." I hold her in my arms, and put a strand of hair away from her face, as she says this. She is slightly drenched.
"My damned phone has been in repair for three hours, I'll get it back in an hour."
"Oh! And I thought something serious has happened and you are not picking up my calls.." she says with a tense expression.
I hate how worried I made her for no reason.
"It's alright Love but what got you busy? The dance practice has already started." I ask with a small frown.
"umm.. I had some work at home, with mom." She steps back hesitantly, tearing away her gaze from me.
She's apologetic but I don't need it. It can happen to anyone.
"Thank God it's not that serious. You scared me for once." I smile in her direction and try to diffuse her tension.
"You too." She cups my face and I begin to kiss the same hand when I see him.
"Lavanya you forgot your purse.." Aditya comes, walking quickly to hand over the purse.
"what the fuck is he doing here-" I walk past Lavanya to grab it from his hand.
"Fuck!" I hear Lavanya mutter in the background.
"What are you doing here?" I push him back with agony because it's not that time of the day when I will tolerate his wicked presence.
I have my own plans and he can't come and ruin my mood with his unwanted intrusion.
"I have just come back to return her purse, which she left in my car. I am going back." Aditya stops himself from faltering and corrects his collar.
"Lavanya? You were with him?" I look back at her and the colour of her face becomes pale.
"Agastya let me explain." She weakly voices out, admitting that it is true.
She was with him.
"Actually, I lied to you.. I wasn't with mom. I was with Aditya." She says, making my insides churn at her words. Not her.
No way!
I didn't expect it from her. I have had my share of lies with Natasha but I am not at all ready to get it repeated with Lavanya.
"I can't believe.." I mutter in response. I wasn't expecting this.
She could have told me but she chose to lie.
"I'm so sorry. He had arranged for a get together with school friends.. I came here as soon as I.."

Romance"Oh Love! You are finally here. And I" he took a pause and roared with a sly smile "am NOT AT ALL pleased." He looked at me, as if I am his prey. Well he's a beast nonetheless. "Stop calling me Lav. It's Lavanya for you." I replied, with fierceness...
