Chapter 2

Part Two

The next day all three of the girls went off to their class, and 2 hours later they were back in their dorm room waiting for their next class to start which would be after lunch. They were all just sitting there and being bored when Sanjana got a call on her cell. She picked it up not knowing who it was. "Hello"

"Hey" it was a guy…hmm who could it be thought Sanjana, now Sanjana was a type of girl who forgets things even if they just happened yesterday. So when she heard his voice, she knew it sounded familiar but forgot where she had heard it.

"Who is this" she asked Confused.

"Aryan"

Aryan…Aryan…I know I heard that name somewhere, but where…think Sanjana think…where did you hear his name…and his voice….think …think…GOT IT "Oh…hey Aryan"

As soon as the other 2 girls heard her say Aryan they came and sat next to her…looking at her with a smile on their faces. Now, this irritated Sanjana, but she continued to talk "So, what makes you call"

"Ummm…I was just wondering…ummm, if you…ummm…would like to have lunch with me today"

"Have lunch with you today" as soon as Kripa and Kajal heard her say lunch their smiles grew wider, which annoyed Sanjana even more.

"Well you don't have to if you don't want to, I was just asking" said Aryan disappointed.

"No. No, its nothing like, umm, sure I'll love to have lunch with you today."

Aryan got all happy on the other. Yes. He thought. She agreed to come. "Ok, well I guess I'll see you then."

"Yeh sure, but where do you want to meet?"

"Oops, my bad, forgot to tell you that. Were meeting at…actually you know what, I'll come pick you up, and where we go will be a surprise."

"Cool. Sounds good…see you then"

"Yaa, see you then" he repeated those words and then cut the phone. Yes, she said ok he thought while he walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

"That was how your daddy first asked me out to lunch; you should have heard the way his voice was shaking. Poor thing I could just imagine how his face would have looked, when he thought I was gonna say no." Said Sanjana.

"Awww…mommy that's so cute." Said Neha

"Yeah" said Kripa "But what was even more cute, is the way Angad mamu asked me on a date."

Angad gave Kripa 'Oh no you wouldn't kind of look.' Kripa ignored it and kept talking.

"And how was that Kripa Massi" asked Neha, in the cutest voice

"Well, just keep listening to the story and you will find out."

Sanjana was going through all her clothes looking for something to wear, when Kripa and Kajal came into the room, with huge smiles on their face. Sanjana was a calm person so she ignored them and went back to what she was doing earlier. They came and stood right behind her to annoy her some more, but she kept her cool, as she looked through her bunch of clothes scattered around her bed. Kripa and Kajal were really in the mood of teasing her so they kept following her wherever she went. Sanjana was going to break now, she couldn't take it anymore, and she knew what they were trying to do. So when she got in front of the bathroom with a halter top and a pair of jeans she turned around and yelled. "I KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS ARE TRYING TO DO, SO QUIT IT" she stormed into the bathroom and shut the door behind her. As soon as she got into the bathroom, Kajal and Kripa started to laugh so badly.

"God, this girl cracks me up." Said Kajal still laughing "She's so crazy"

"Haha, I know" said Kripa "Your brother and best friend are going on a date"

"Oh my God, I never even realized that until now"

Just then Sanjana came out of the bathroom, giving Kripa and Kajal a look and then just turning her head away and walking off. Kripa and Kajal followed her to the dressing table where Sanjana stood in front of the mirror and brushed her hair. Kajal and Kripa were just watching her and trying not to laugh, but they couldn't help it, both of them just burst out laughing, which irritated Sanjana. "What now?" she asked irritated

"Nothing, sorry for laughing, it's just that you got so mad, you usually don't get mad" said Kripa "That's my job"

"Haha, Kripa very funny." Said Sanjana sarcastically

"OK, ok guys enough of this." Said Kajal "let's talk about something else"

"Like…." Said Sanjana

"Like the fact that you're going on a date with my brother."

"Urghhh….it's not like I'm going to marry him…were just going out for lunch that's it, and plus I'm only 14, it's not like I'm thinking about long-term relationships."

"Ok…ok…you go now…or else you're going be late for you're so called 'date'" said Kripa

"Yaa, yaa…I'm leaving, he's going to come pick me up, and I have to wait in front of the school." Said Sanjana "Bye guys"

Kajal and Kripa said bye and within a minute Sanjana was gone. Kajal and Kripa went into the family room and turned on the TV and just sat there flipping through every channel…suddenly there was a knock at the door. Who could that be both of then thought; Kripa got up to go open the door. There was a young girl at the door with a pair of roses in her hand, she handed then to Kripa and quickly ran away before Kripa could ask her any questions. She shut the door and went back to the sofa where Kajal was waiting.

"Who gave them?" asked Kajal

"I don't know, it doesn't say." Said Kripa "All it says here is 'Meet me at Rose Park Love your mystery man '…hmmm weird."

"Yaa, so are you going to go"

"I don't know, should I go"

"I think you should, because Ronit just called and asked me to meet him at the beach, so I'm going there."

"God, when will you and Ronit actually start dating?"

"I don't know, when he asks me, we've been friends for the longest time. I think it's going to take him time to ask me"

"Well, he should hurry up, because someone else just might come and take you away." Said Kripa teasingly

"Shut-up" said Kajal giving herself one last look in the mirror "You tell me are you going to go and meet this mysterious man of yours."

"I don't know should I go."

"Yaa, I say take the risk and go" said Kajal "And if it's some creepy old guy, then you run!!!"

"Haha, ok thanks Kajz. I'll keep that in mind." Kripa said sarcastically.

"Good, ok I'm going now. I don't want to be late"

"Yaa…yaa I know how much you hate being late"

"Yaa, so bye"

Kajal was out the door seconds later. Kripa went into her room and just basically looked at the flowers. Who could they be from she wondered, she thought and she thought, but she couldn't even make a guess of who this mysterious man could be. She finally decided to go, and take a look for herself. She fixed up her hair grabbed her house keys, and basically ran out the door.

Sanjana and Aryan were having a pretty good time, they were talking and laughing and enjoying each others company. Aryan was a joker, he loved to tell jokes, and his jokes were pretty funny. He was so sweet, but could was very sarcastic. You couldn't tell if he was lying or telling the truth. He loved food; he could eat anything you gave him, just as long as it wasn't killed. Yup, he was a vegetarian!!! Aryan being a vegetarian was a plus point, because Sanjana was also a vegetarian. This was the 100th thing they had in common.

After their lunch was done they decided to go for a little was there was 2 hours left before any of their classes started.

"Haha…Aryan did you know that you're a really funny guy." Sanjana said laughing.

Aryan didn't say anything, he just watched her laugh, he didn't know why but her laugh gave him goose bumps. He never felt like this for any other girl he's been with before. He just felt like sitting there and watch her laugh all day, and he would have if Sanjana didn't disturb him.

"Aisa kya dekh rahe hou" she asked

"Kuch nahin, bas aise"

There was an awkward silence for about a minute or 2, and then Aryan broke the silence. "So, what's your next class?"

"Umm…I have English, then drama, then science…then I'm going back to my dorm room and talking to Kripa and Kajal." She said. That was Sanjana for you, you ask her one simple question and she would answer in a paragraph…telling her whole history.

"Ohhh, you know what's weird, that my sister has been best friends with you for the longest time and we never met."

"Yaa, I know…that's really weird." Sanjana said. Why couldn't Kajz tell me before that she had a hot brother, thought Sanjana.

"What are you thinking" he asked

"Oh nothing, just that Kajz never really mentioned you."

"Kajz???"

"Yaa…we call Kajal, Kajz for short"

"Oh…really, what do they call you"

"Sanju and we call Kripa, Krips." Said Sanjana "just in case you were wondering"

"Oh…cool…"

"You're not much of a talker, are you?"

"No, it's not like that, I actually talk a lot"

"Then why aren't you talking now"

Because I just want to sit here and stare at you all day, he thought

"What was that?"

"Nothing. Just nothing."

Kajal and Ronit were sitting at the beach and talking. That's what they liked to do, just sit on the beach and talk. Ronit was Kajal's friend. He was the first friend she had that was a boy, and now he was the only friend she had that was a boy. She didn't really trust other guys to much, after her father left her mother; she just began to hate guys. Aryan and Ronit were the only 2 guys she cared about. Ronit and Kajal really started to like each other, but were too scared to admit their feelings; they both knew that they liked each other. But for some reason it just wouldn't come out. Today Ronit had called Kajal to the beach for a reason; he wanted to tell her something. "Kajal, we have known each other for so long now"

Yes, this is the moment I have been waiting for, thought Kajal.

"And well, we both know that somewhere deep in our hearts feelings that are more then just friendship have started to develop." Said Ronit, while Kajal just nodded at everything he said. "And well, I just can't keep those feelings inside if me anymore. I have to let you know."

"Ronit I…" before she could continue on with anything else Ronit put his finger on her lips.

"Shhhh…let me finish talking." He said "Kajal, I really like you, not just as a friend, but something more then that. I don't know when these feelings grew in my heart but they did, and I just want to know, if you like me like that to."

"Of course, I do. I always have, Ronit you're the only guy other then Aryan, that I trust." She said "I really really like you to, your really special to me."

As soon as she said that a huge smile grew on Ronit's face. "So, does this mean that you're my girlfriend?" asked Ronit, while pulling her into a hug.

"Well, if you're my boyfriend, then yes."

"Kajal, I'm so happy today."

"Me too." Kajal said happily

This was the best day for Kajal and Ronit, they both got each other after being friends for such a long time. They couldn't ask for anything more.

Kripa reached the rose park, and she was looking for someone that she might recognize, bu she didn't see anyone. She was kind of disappointed, somewhere deep inside her heart she wished she saw Angad there. Why am I thining of Angad she asked herself, stop thinking about him she told herself. She was just about to walk away when she heard someone yell out Kripa. She froze. It was him..it was him, he's the one that called her here, he's the one who sent her those red roses, but why. Why was he doing all this, she couldn't understand. She slowly turned around, and there she saw him standing. He had a great physic, he was tall, but not to tall. He was dark, but not too dark, and he was just plain handsome. "Angad?"

"Oh great, you remember my name..Miss.Kripa"

Kripa felt something in her heart light up when he said her name. "Yaa, well why wouldn't I Mr.Angad Khanna"

Now it was Angads turn to fell something in his heart light up. He didn't know why but whenever he saw Kripa, he didn't feel like taking his eyes off her.

"So, why did you call me here"

"How do you know it was me"

"Because Mr. Khanna, Kripa Sharma knows everything"

"Well, Kripa Sharma, if you know everything then you tell me why I called you here." She gave him a look that said 'If you don't tell me i'm leaving'..."Ok..Ok...i'll tell you, I called you here so we can have lunch here togethar."

"What if I don't want to have lunch with you"

"Well, your going to have to anyways, got that Miss. Kripa Sharma.

Kripa agreed and they both went to a table which Angad got specially set up for the two of them, and they had thier lunch, sharing a light conversation.
