Am I starting tolikeRudra?
When I’m back in my bed, it’s that thought that keeps me from falling asleep, so against my better judgment, I start scrolling through Rudra’s Instagram, stalking his account thoroughly, scouring every video or post he’s ever put up.
Talk about desperate.
The worst part? It makes my silly crush on Rudra justgrow. Everything about him suddenly feels new, as if I’m discovering him for the first time instead of, you know, getting to know him better, having met him first seven years ago and all that. The fact that he’s so talented doesn’t help. Like, talent isthesingle most attractive thing in a person, right after intellect.
I hate this.
I’m on my way to kiss a boy who might be the nicest guy I’ve ever met, happens to be cute as shit,andlikes me back. That has never happened to me! And here I am, havingmomentswith Rudra Desai when Amrit Acharya is less than a day’s journey from me. Amrit Acharya, the boy I’ve been obsessed with all summer.
The boy who wants to kiss me.
I want to throw up. I told him I liked him yesterday, and I do, I really do. So why isthishappening?
Once I’ve hit the end of Rudra’s page, his oldest posts going back six years, I text Srishti and tell her everything. As always, she’s up and responds immediately—which, sheshouldn’tbe, because she’s leaving for her trip early tomorrow.
@srishti_without_an_h
wow krish i just checked out mr desai’s page
dude he’s too good. im mind blown.
he could do with a better handle tho
@notkrishnakumar
Bro I need advice on what I’m supposed to do.
I can’t spend another day with Rudra bc I’m finding him more and more attractive by the second
@srishti_without_an_h
okay so like... team #krishudra all the way then?
@notkrishnakumar
THAT IS NOT WHAT I’M SAYING!!!
IM ON MY WAY TO KISS AMRIT, REMEMBER??
Besides, Priti likes him too. It isn’t right.
@srishti_without_an_h
only if she had explicitly told you she likes him
but she hasn’t
you have no idea about her really.
@notkrishnakumar
Weren’t you team #krishrit until yesterday??
@srishti_without_an_h
#krishrit has a nicer ring to it, but imho amrit is so done
