Tanya Breaks Up
It was out in the playground of the school where both Tanya had called Khushi to talk.
Khushi
What?? You want to break up with him? Why?
Tanya
We're not good together.
Khushi
Seriously? And who told you that?
Tanya
My family astro. He said, if I didn't stop seeing my boyfriend he is going to cheat on me constantly.
Khushi
Tanya, you know Danish right? He's like the sweetest guy alive on earth.
Khushi
How can he cheat on you? He loves you. and just by the way. He did not do anything of that sort right now so, why are you breaking up now?
Tanya
So, you mean to say that I should just sit and wait for him to cheat on me, so that my heart could not bear that pain?
Khushi
I didn't mean that, Tanya but how is it Danish's fault? Isn't this really unfair to him?
Tanya
I don't know. And then Khushi, what's done is done. Just stop trying to talk me out of this. I will not change my mind.
Tanya didn't want to listen any further and storms off from the playground in a direction which was not towards the classroom. Khushi did not follow her and remained there for five minutes until the bell rang indicating the end of the lunch break
After the lunch break Khushi heavy hearted came back to the classroom
Khushi
(sigh... I am completely blank now. I mean how could Tanya do such a weird thing? Huh. Anyway.)
Talking to herself Khushi approached her usual seat where she used to sit with Tanya every day. She was surprised to find Danish sitting there
Khushi cleared her thoughts with a sigh. She was least expecting to see Danish after the bomb Tanya exploded on her head.
Khushi
How come you're sitting here?
Danish
I need to talk to you about something
Khushi
But this is Tanya's seat. I mean... Where is she? Is she planning on bunking this period or something?
Khushi was really panicking seeing him in such a situation. She really wanted to avoid him right now.
Danish
I really haven't talked to her since lunch. But... Um... I heard some people saying, that she is gonna skip the rest of her school today.
Danish
So, I thought you won't be having a seating partner for now and I could hence talk to you, taking her place. I hope you don't mind?
Khushi did mind, but she could not dare to say that out loud.
Khushi
Uhhh... Yeah, of course.
She said with a very weak smile. She took off her bag and placed it in front of her seat and got settled down
Khushi
What is it? What do you want to talk about?
Danish
I really don't know how to say this, but do you know that Tanya and I...
He stopped in the middle of saying. He was really looking pityful
It was as if Khushi could read his mind and finished his sentence for him
Khushi
You and Tanya broke up.
