Can You Keep a Secret?

So Close

---Kirthi's POV---

"Hello," I said joining everyone.

"Do we know you?"Deepti asked.

"I'm on Amber's dance team," I said.

"What dance team?"Waqas asked.

I had done my research on whos who.

"She hasn't told you? I thought she would have told you by now," I said. "Karan knows."

"Who's Karan?"Reema asked.

"Aray wah! She's kept everything a secret," I said.

"Listen here! I don't know who you are but you have to stop this," Deepti said.

I was going to say something when Amber joined us.

"Hi Amber," I said.

"Hello. And you are?" She asked.

Woah. What the f*ck?

"I'm Kirthi. We're on the same dance team," I said.

"What dance team?" She asked.

I was surprised by that.

"The one that.." I was saying but she interrupted me.

"I don't dance," she said.

"But, " I said.

"That's enough. You've already said enough. Get lost!" Waqas said.

"I'm being honest," I said. "Wait."

I found Karan and quickly brought him back.

"This is Karan, he knows,"I said.

"Knows what?"He asked.

I went on and told him everything.

"I don't even know any of these people," he said.

"What the hell?!"I said.

"Hey Amber," Akihil said.

Perfect!

"Hi Akhil," she said.

Finally!

"Woah, I won't be able to come to class toh, can I borrow your notes?"He asked.

"Sure,"she said.

"Wait, what about dance practice?"I asked.

"What dance practice?" He asked.

Are you serious right now?

"She says Amber is on some dance team," Waqas said.

"Amber? Dance?" Akhil laughed. "Have you seen her dance?"

"Hey!" She said offended and I said surprised.

"Okay so clearly you have a problem with Amber or you are jealous, but we'd appreciate it if you didn't accuse her of anything,"Reema said.

I just left from there. There's got to be a way. God, I was so close.
