" I love you" is all she would ever say to tease the poor guy. Shyam was a High school student.
Ever since he was a child he had dreamt to become an animetor who would make anything come to life with his skills.
But growing up is realising just how hard achieving your dreams could be. Not just an animetor he had dreamt of getting a girlfriend who would support him with whatever he does, or choses to do.
Although, he might just have one but she was one of a kind. She would always tease him saying she loves him but later she would decline it as a joke.
Although shyam wanted her to stop, to tell him how she really felt. But he couldn't, somehow he just couldn't say it out loud.
One night she had invited him to her apartment to have a chat, or did she really?
It was almost the finals of 12th and shyam had all his focus on studies. She has promised shyam that she wouldn't bother him during the finals which is exactly why he was here today.
But right now the situation turned to something else, something he hadn't expected of her. Of artika...
She was on top of shyam, holding his t-shirt and putting him on a position where he neither can run nor can move..
" This time, i swear i really want to be with you forever. And i would not say it's a joke anymore. "
Her face looked serious and it did not look like she was on the mood to joke around.
But shyam had have enough of her teasing, he pushed her aside and walked closer to the gate and before leaving he said. " You always say that, but at last it's all to break my one and only heart. Do you know how much it hurts to know that you say is just a joke ? You probably don't but I do.
So please let me go, and don't talk to me ever again "
But before he could take even one step outside the gate artika's voice spoke once more.
" I know, I know it's heartbreaking but believe me. I have tried to convince myself that this time it'll be the truth and yet., I fail again and again. But today, it's something different today iam not joking. Please believe me, or else I'll cut my neck with this knife " she said pointing a sharp looking knife on her neck.
It looked like she would use it to kill herself at any given moment, shyam who was surprised by her actions ran as fast as he could to take back that knife from her.
" I believe< 3 " he repeated three times and finally reaching the knife he tried to break it down but in reality it was just a kids play knife which not even in a thousand hits could kill an actual person.
He was fooled once again
