Chapter 10
I made up my mind and prepared myself the entire night to talk to Aiko but as soon as I reached school, my confidence level was zero. Oh! C'mon Irana! You can't lose now. I went to my cla.s.sroom but I couldn't find the courage to talk to Aiko. I didn't even see her today. She was not there for lunch too. I asked Chiyo about her but she said she also didn't see her today. Maybe I should find her in her cla.s.sroom, but I couldn't muster up any courage. The school was about to get over and only 3 days were left for summer vacations. I was afraid that at this rate I won't be able to talk to Aiko ever. It was my and Chiyo's cleaning duty today. Everybody had left and I was sitting and packing my bag when suddenly someone banged on my table. Agitated I looked up and it was Aiko. She suddenly lifted her leg and kept it in between my legs and stared at me with intrigued eyes. At the same time I was heating up. Is she here to bully me? But what is this position? Is she seducing me? She lifted up my chin and said, "Did I pester you so much to teach me English that now you're ignoring me?" I bursted out laughing. She gave me a confused look. Holding my laughter, I pushed her leg back and said, "Are you some bully or what? Can't you talk properly you fool! Im so sorry I was not in my right mind yesterday. I didn't ignored you purposely." Aiko sighed and said, "I was so scared and kept thinking that I did something wrong. You also replied back so coldly last night." "Im really sorry! I won't do this again. By the way, I don't remember giving you my number," I said coyly. "I gave it to her! Exclaimed Chiyo suddenly." She came to us and asked, "What's the situation between you two?" We looked at each other and just shrugged our shoulders and smiled.....
