《Worlds Apart》Chapter 9
Advertisement
The night of the meteor shower ended abruptly. After kissing Manik for the second time last night, she pulled away and left, not looking back, leaving behind a highly confused Manik. Sonakshi had never done something like this before, and when she thought about it that way, she realised that for Manik such random, meaningless kisses were normal. She just couldn't sleep properly, she was tossing and turning in confusion, a lot of thoughts clouding her mind...
On the other hand Manik,to his surprise, was thinking about the kiss...A LOT. 'Isn't this supposed to be just like another kiss- meaningless and impulsive- then why am I over analysing that moment so much?' Manik thought as he sat on his bed, trying to process what happened earlier that night... And both of them kept thinking about that moment, until sleep finally took over them.

The next morning
Sonakshi woke up to a text from Manik. She was hesitant first, and even considered ghosting him for a few days, but then she opened the chat anyways.
M: want to catch a movie today?
She wanted to, but she couldn't, she knew she wouldn't be able to dissolve the awkwardness between them so soon, so she texted him back, and he replied immediately:
S: maybe sometime later, please?
M: whenever you are comfortable. Just remember I won't ever judge you... EVER
S: I know :)
M: there's no need to feel awkward or embarassed about last night ok? Nothing will change how I look at you as a person, you're still the same Sona to me! 😚
Sonakshi sighed in relief and decided to be as transparent with him, as he was with her, so she texted back.
S: I feel kinda precarious in general, but I can't really date you... I'm attracted to you... Maybe even like you, but I can't...

M: I agree on that, too much work. All that people do in a relationships, is talk about the relationship. It's like a Ferris wheel.
S: huh?
M: Nothing, have a good day Sona :D
S: You too Manik :)

It was Saturday, nearly 3-4 days after their awkward yet special interaction. They didn't meet since then, but texted each other once in a while, to check up on how the other was doing.
Sonakshi gave it a thought, and texted Manik, suggesting that they watch a movie on Monday. Undoubtedly, Manik agreed.
S: hey, wanna catch a movie this Monday?
M: would LOVE to, unless you're comfortable :)
S: I am.
M: fine I'll choose the movie then, see you ;)

Manik and Sonakshi met just outside the cinema almost half an hour before the showtime. "So what's the movie about? Sci-fi?" Sona asked. "No, a horror movie... because ofcourse you aren't that interested in space so..." Sonakshi kind of fumbled with her words..."uh..so..uh...why horror?" Manik teased her, "Why? Are you scared darling?" "Uh...no..no, not at all...why would I be...at the end it's fiction na..so.." Sona replied still fumbling. Manik put his hand around her shoulder, trying to calm her down, and said, "you've my hand to hold of you're scared ok, and I can sit like this throughout the movie...I don't mind!" Sonakshi gave him a light pat and said, "Besharam!" "Bachpan se baby!" Manik replied, still teasing her, as they made their way inside the cinema.

Rated Mature for strong language and sexual themes ~~~Ana shrieked and frantically shielded her eyes as a very male, very naked man entered the room. "Holy fuck," she heard the man say, or rather shout, before the sound of something crashing to the floor met her ears. She spread her fingers slightly, peeking through to assess the damage. "Don't look!" She clamped her eyes closed."Who are you?" Ana resisted the urge to peek once more as she heard him move around."Better yet who the hell are you," he bit back sharply and she resisted the urge to flinch at the unnecessarily harsh tone."Do you live here?" "No," he deadpanned. Her eyebrows furrowed in slight confusion. "I'm just in a random ass college dorm walking around naked. What do you fucking think, Sherlock?" He sneered and she bit the side of her cheek to hold back the oncoming eyeroll. Leave it to the second college student Ana comes across to be a total jerk."Well then I do believe that makes me your roommate."~~~All Princess Anastasia wanted was to get through college quietly, receive her degree and enjoy the simplicity of life in the process. But, after her first day ends on bad terms with one of her new roommates, it starts a series of prank wars that completely destroys every hope she ever had of living like a normal person.Except for the fact that maybe her new roommate isn't actually so bad after all. And maybe - just maybe - he's actually kind of wonderful. ~~~
