On the other hand, Luke didn’t even care, who was looking at us or what they might thinking. He hugged Jake also, and he was in extreme bliss. His handsome face was glowing.
After he released Jake from his hug, Jake looked at me. He didn’t have his rare smile on his face anymore. His face was clouded with some unreadable emotions as usual.

The journey back to university was very boring as everyone was extremely tired. Almost everyone was sleeping.
No matter how tired I felt right then, my heart was filled with happiness. As a result, I also fell into sleep in no time.
***********
I was lying on my bed in my small cold room, thinking about all the wonderful days I spent with him and our final hug!!! He even said “Bye” to me, when I leave university.
My sweet Luke!!!
Suddenly my door was opened and I panicky sat on the bed. I usually don’t lock my door, as no one come to my room.
I was entirely surprised to see Shane walking towards me.
“Shane…” I said with a broken voice. Why the hell is he here? Is he going to beat me?
Without saying anything he sat on my bed, keeping his eyes focused on mine.
“How you know Luke?” he asked.
“what?” is that even a question? Luke is also in the same batch as me.
“I asked how do you know him?” he again asked. His voice didn’t sound like angry.
“He is in our batch,” I said in a voice that even I couldn’t hear properly.
“Don’t play with me, Sarah. There are several other girls in the batch, but you are the first girl he gave a hug like this in front of everyone. I am asking how you know him that well, so he gave you such a hug?” he demanded.
“Beleive me, Shane. I don’t know him. We just worked together in the workshop. Other than that I have barely spoken with him.” I said. I can’t tell Shane, he gave me that warm hug because he loves me. I can’t let anyone knows that Luke is texting with me. No matter how much I hate lying, I had no other option.
He stared at me for a few seconds.
Then out of nowhere, he grabbed me from my neck and started to make me suffocate.
“Shane!!!!” I screamed, trying to lose his strong grip. He was so much stronger than me. I felt like I was going to die.
“Stay away from my friends, if you love your pathetic life!!!!” He yelled at me, burning from anger and then he left me.
I fall to my bed coughing and crying. Why brother? Why you treat me like this?
I think my payback time has just commenced. I have to pay back for all the happiness I received in the past few days.
I cried my self to sleep, as I have done in many nights in my miserable life.

From the next day onwards, I tried to avoid Luke and Jake as much as possible. I didn’t want to make any troubles to them anyway. But Luke made it so damn hard for me to avoid him. Whenever he saw me in a corridor, or in the canteen or anywhere, he started to wave his hand at me and smile. Sometimes he even talked with me.
No need to tell I was enjoying his loving gestures, but the meantime, I was scared. If Shane got to know, that Luke is texting with me, God knows how he will react?
I had to be cautious not just about Shane, I became a common enemy of most of the girls. Luke never shows any special attention to any girl, no matter how hard they tried to get close to him. Therefore, I think they couldn’t comprehend why Luke is being so friendly towards me. They tried to hurt me a few times, but fortunately, I managed to avoid them.
Nevertheless, days went on like this, making Luke close to my heart more and more and making others hate me more and more.
One day I saw on facebook that his birthday is on tomorrow.
I wanted to give him a gift, but I couldn’t understand what should I give him or when should I give him that. If I give him a gift in university, all my problems will get worst.
On the other hand, he is a billionaire. What poor I can possibly buy him?
I was thinking so hard, what should I do, when my phone blinked with a new message.
“My sunshine. “
I smiled at his message.
“How are you?”
“Fine. Staying on my bed thinking about you? [“
“Really? So what you think about me?”
“What you may be doing now? what you will be doing if you are here with me right now?”
“oh! So what you think, I will do if I am with you now?”
“Well, in my mind you will do a hell lot of things if you are with me. Anyway as a summary I can tell you will be in my arms and you will be happy and comfortable.”
I blushed even to imagine, me in his arms. God! how happy would I be?
“I know I will be happy, there is no doubt.”
“BTW what’s up?”
“mmm… nothing much. just lying on the bed. I have a viva with Dr. Fedric, tomorrow. So… what you are up to tomorrow?”
“Well… tomorrow is kind of a big day. I have a party too”
Yes of course darling. Tomorrow is indeed a big day because it is your birthday!!! So you are going to have a party? Hope I also could come and wish you.
“a party???” I asked just to see what would he tell.
“yeah… a birthday party”
“Oh, I see… Hope you have a lot of fun”
