"You want me to take you to physiotherapist tomorrow?"

"You want me to take you to physiotherapist tomorrow?"

"Oh hell no, physiotherapist sessions are painful. I'm sure that the pain relief balm and the bandage would do its work. And it's not my first time that I've cramped my foot,"

I had got my foot fractured when I was in eleventh grade. I was randomly playing football with Atharv on the ground, bunking classes when I fractured my foot. It took me two months to get completely healed.

Atharv was uploading the boomerang, that we had clicked, on his Instagram story. I noticed Armaan waving at me from the other end of the living room. At firs,t I was unsure if it was Armaan. But when I got sure, I waved at him back. He then did something on his phone and I diverted my attention back to Atharv.

My phone buzzed. I checked with my phone, it was Armaan's text.

~ would you mind if I come over?

Atharv hated me talking to Armaan. Not because he was gay, but because Atharv felt like he cheated on me. I tried multiple times to explain Atharv, but we ended up arguing every time. So I gave up explaining to him. I secretly did chat sometimes with Armaan and deleted it instantly so that Atharv won't see it.

Atharv gestured something to his team mates. Ryan was not in them unfortunately.

"What were you trying to convey?"

"They were calling me over to play some game. So I denied,"

I decided to get advantage of the situation. If Atharv joined his teammates for the game, Armaan could come over and speak with me.

"You can go,"

"You want me to desert you?"

"Not really,"

"I'm fine over here," he had one more sip from his glass.

"No, you really need to go. I'll play subway surfers on my phone until you return."

"You sure?"

"Absolutely,"

"Okay then,"

He hopped off the stool and went to his teammates. I instantly felt guilty and promised to myself that I would give Atharv two extra pav (bread) as an act of apology.

I texted back to Armaan.

~ yes you can 🙂

I sipped my drink and was about to spit it as I heard Ryan's voice suddenly, "Hey,"

Appu was wrong. Ryan did come to speak with me. I did a little mental victory dance.
