Red dupatta

Hello, welcome back to another chapter of His accidental bride.

Hope you enjoy the chapter.

************************************

" Red dupatta." Only these words came out of her mouth as he recalled yesterday's incident.

Avika comprehended his words, and her eyes widened, realising he is the same guy from yesterday who was driving his motorbike and ended up crashing into the haystack because of her dupatta.

Her hands cover her mouth in shock,." Oh shit. Tum. I am sorry- I am sorry.Bye." She said before instantly rushing away from him not caring to help him. She didn't want to create a scene on the first day of college, so running away was the best option, she thought.

The guy saw her running away, he stood up, frustrated. His white t-shirt from before now had brown muddy stains on them, making it look so dirty.

" Shit..shit." he murmured while trying to clean himself.

" Hey Rishav.. Good morning" One of his fellow mate greeted walking to him.

" Good morning? What's so good about this morning Neil?" His frustration now coming out as words.

" Oh my god...ye kya kar rakha hai tune?" The fellow mate asked looking at his not soo white t-shirt.

Rishav stared at the guy for few seconds before forcing a fake smile " Wo kya hai na mujhe ye Khali safed t-shirt acchi nahi lag rahi thi..to maine socha ki kyu na Matti se brown colour ke flowers bana diye jaayen ispar."

" Sacchi?" Neel again asked, innocently.

"Aaahh...." He light pulled his neatly jelled hair, clearly frustrated from his friend too.

" Aaj din hi khrab hai mera...sare paagal aake mujhse hi takra rahe hain." Saying that he went back to the parking lot.

After roaming for almost half an hour, Avika finally found her class. She sighed in relief and entered the class, some students noticed, some were busy with themselves and some didn't even care what was going on.

She took a deep breath and ran her eyes to find a seat for herself, her eyes halted on a girl who was sitting alone, minding her own business, sketch something maybe.

Avika reached the girl and knocked the table to get her attention. The busy girl who was trying her best to draw the perfect eyelid of her drawing, averted her eyes and looked up.

" Heyy..." She waved.

" Hiii.....can I sit here?" Avika asked politely.

" Ya sure, why not?" The girl immediately gave her space to get settled down.

" Hi...I am Avika." Avika said extending her hand for a handshake.

The girl accepted her hand quickly " Sadiya."

" Btw....your drawing is so pretty."

" Thanks....first day?"

" Hmm.....aur aaj hi siyaappa ho gaya." Avika muttered.

" Kya hua?" Sadiya asked.

Avika sighed, " Ek teacher se panga ho gaya."

" What!" Sadiya exclaimed.

" Yup, I crashed into a male professor and he fell in the garden. I ruined his tshirt."

" Such a good way to start college's first day." Sadiya commented.

" Just hope ki wo humara professor na ho." She added while getting back to her drawing to which Avika just nodded.

Both were involved in their own business when shoes clicking sound came indicating that the teacher is here. Everyone stood up to greet him, Avika's eyes widened as soon as she laid her gaze on the teacher.

" Shit!" She muttered under her breath but Sadiya was quick to catch it.

" What happened?"

" He is the one I was taking about." Avika whispered as they sat after greetings.

" You are gone bro, he is really strict and doesn't leave a chance to insult oversmart students." Sadiya gave her a terrifying look making her tense.

" Last time, we talked about communication. Who can recall, what is communication?" Rishav turned dto the class after writing the topic on the board.

Few students raised their hands including Avika, she wasn't present yesterday but she definitely know the meaning of communication.

He wandered his gaze over all the students and stopped at Avika, " You..Red dupatta." He said signalling her to answer, though he clearly remembered she wasn't present yesterday.

She stood up and gave him a nervous look, before answering his question "The act of sharing or exchanging information, ideas or feelings."

He smirked for a second before covering it up with a fake smile, " good. new admission?"

He sounded so polite that Avika didn't see his smirk so she just nodded.

"Can you tell me what did I said just now?" He asked in sugarcoated voice.

She was taken aback by his question, she recalled his words in her mind "You asked 'what is communication'?"

" were you present yesterday?" She shook her head. " Then why did you answer?" She gulped a lump of saliva as his tone was changing from soft to angry.

Everyone's attention was now on her, she could feel their strong gaze. She became nervous. This is not what she expected when she came here to start a new journey of her life. Sje doesn't want be like her past version, she wanted to be confident and bold but her confidence always leave her alone whenever she needs it the most.

Avoiding all gazes, she took a deep breath mentally telling herself that she is right and she doesn't have to fear anyone, " Because I knew the answer."

" For sure you knew the definition of communication but you definitely didn't knew what we discussed in previous class. So next time, before you try oversmart you teacher listen to him or her clearly. Understand. I just hate " He warned her and all Avika did was just nodded her head.

This was not how she imagined her first day of college, messing with her professor and now he might never leave a chance to get her back for what she did to him, yesterday and today.

She knew she had gotten herself into this mess and there's no turning back.

Rishav forgets his personal life as soon as he enters the campus and focuses on the teaching students. Since he and Neel are the youngest ones here, they came across a lot of students who wants to show off their knowledge or money or status etc.

When they first joined the college as assistant professors they wanted to be good to students, never shout on them and try to understand them, but as the time passed they came to know that some students just don't understand the meaning of politeness and sincerity.

He was in a good mood when he entered the campus today. But the moment he crashed with Avika, his mood changed 360°. He thought she is one of those rich brats who doesn't care about anyone else in the world.

So when saw her raising her hand to answer the question, he deliberately asked her to let her know that if she wants to spend peaceful college, she should never mess with him, again.

" You may sit down." He said and continued with his lecture as if nothing happened.

As she sat down, she calmed down herself. Somewhere in her heart she knew that it was her fault, so she shrugged the sad feeling and again encouraged her to forget the negativity and smile.

She smiled widely and ended up catching his attention again " Having too much fun?"

Her smile immediately faded away and she shook her head and whispered sorry came out of her mouth.Rishav just sighed and continued with his lesson.

Rest of the period Avika tried her best to not come under his radar but Rishav kept taking a glance of her once in a while.

She was so weird he thought cause everytime he glanced at her, she was was doing things like, talking to herself, making weird expressions and smiling to herself.

She didn't cared about the other 40 students sitting there, she was just lost in her own world. After finishing his class, Rishav bid them and went to his next class expecting not to encounter her again but looks like god planned to make his worse.

He finished his next class peacefully and headed to cafeteria as it was time for recess. Neil has texted him that he is waiting for him at their usual table.

He was just texting him back that he's coming. He was typing from one hand and his other hand had a register with him, his eyes and finer tips rushing around the virtual keyboard. He was just so egrossed that he didn't realised, someone was coming from the other side.

Avika was sitting in cafeteria sipping on cola Sadiya has treated her when sadiya asked her to order what she wants to eat that's when it strikes her that she has forgotten her wallet in her bag, so she quickly rushed to out of the cafeteria and ended up crashing in him again.

"What the hell?" He immediately cursed as his phone slipped out of his hand and kissed the hard floor.

He picked up his phone and came face to face with the person who crashed into him with full force.

His face expression changed into a frustrated and angry one after seeing the person in front of him.
