Part 5
All night I couldn't stop thinking about the lake, to be honest, I couldn't stop thinking about raghav. I woke up around 8 got ready and rushed downstairs. I was looking for aunt when I heard the noise coming from kitchen. "
She's in the kitchen" I said to myself.
I hurried to the kitchen and my jaw dropped. It was raghav chopping onions.
"Good morning princess " he smiled.
"Good morning princess" smiled raghav again.
"Morning" I was astonished.
"Come on breakfast is ready" he said coming out of the kitchen.
I walked behind him to the dining room. Aunt was sitting on the table. I looked at her inquisitively. She smiled and said, "raghav insisted on making the breakfast."
He looked at me and sarcastically said, "I hope you don't mind."
"Of course not." I said rolling my eyes.
We all sat down to eat. Aunt told me raghav came to inquire about her health.
"I thought I should flaunt my cooking skills. So how is the omelet?" he asked curiously.
"Not bad...not good either." I said rolling my eyes.
"You see Ms. Jadav that's what I like about her. She's damn honest. Ever since we have met she's been trying to tell me to bugger off." Said raghav with his trademark smile.
"I am sure you're mistaking dear. She might appear to be tough on the surface but she's very soft and gentle from inside" said Aunt.
"I am dying to explore that" said raghav looking at me.
"In case you both haven't noticed I am present here so will you please stop discussing me?" I said irritatingly.
"The breakfast was fantastic" said Aunt smilingly.
"Yep it was good" said I
"Really kalpi?" he asked sarcastically.
"Get ready we've to go to the clinic" I said ignoring his question.
"I'm feeling fine today. I don't want to go." said aunt sitting on the couch.
"No, you can't skip your check up. It's good that you're feeling fine but that doesn't mean you refuse to go." said I sitting beside her.
"I don't feel like going anywhere today and raghav is here. We should not leave like this."
"Oh no, don't worry about me. I was about to leave." said raghav."the hospital comes in my way I can drop you if you want."
"Well, that's fine then. I'll pick you up later." said I.
"Wait, aren't you coming?" he asked curiously.
"No. Hurry up she's getting late. I really appreciate this." I said smiling.
He smiled back.
After doing the chores I decided to call aunt. She said she'll be done within an hour. I decided to take a walk. When I was locking the door I heard some noises from the house next to door. Someone was moving in. There was a truck and people were unloading the furniture. Suddenly a photo frame fell on the ground from a bag half unzipped. I picked it up.
"Thanks a lot." a voice said. I got up to see a familiar face. He was smiling at me. I felt like I've seen this guy before.
"Have we met before?" he asked me.
"I guess we have but I don't remember. Here your photo frame." I said giving the frame to him.
"Oh yeah! I saw you at the party last night. You dropped your wallet in the garden and I gave it back to you" he said.
"Yes, that's you. That's why I was wondering why you look familiar."
"Hi I am Prem"
"Hey I am kalpi. So you're moving in here?"
"Yes, I am here for further studies."
"That's good."
"You live nearby?" he asked.
"I live in the house next to yours." I said pointing the house.
"Actually I don't live here. I am here for my summer vacations. I live with my aunt Ms.Jadav ."
"It's good that we're neighbors, at least I know someone here." he said smiling.
"If you need anything just let us know." I said.
"Sure."
"Okay then, I'll see you later." and I left.
"Some on has moved in the house next door." I told aunt.
"I hope they are nice people."
"It's just a boy." I said.
"You know him?"
"I saw him at the party."
"Okay. Tell him he can ask us if he needs anything."
"I already told him."
"Good. BTW raghav kept talking about you in the car till we reached the hospital." Said aunt with a smile on her face.
"What?"
"Yes, he kept talking about you. He was asking about your likes and dislikes. I think he likes you."
"It's not that. You don't know him. Tania told me everything about him." I said.
"And you believed her?" asked aunt.
"But why would she lie? Besides, I've spent enough time with him to form my own opinion."
"People change kalpi. I've seen how love changes people."
"You know a lot about love. Have you ever been in love?" I asked curiously.
"I still am." Aunt smiled.
"What? Who is it?"
"Your Uncle."
"You never talked about him."
"He was the love of my life. We were madly in love with each other but..."
Someone knocked the door.
"Damn!" I exclaimed.
I opened the door, it was Prem.
"Hey. I hope I didn't disturb."
"Oh no, please come in."
I introduced Aunt to Prem. She talked with him for a few minutes and went to her room to rest. Prem and I decided to take a walk in the fields.
"It's a small but beautiful town." He said.
"I used to come here during holidays when I was a kid. It's been 5 years since I came here last time."
"Many famous writers were born here." Said he.
"True. Do you read?" I asked.
"I do. I love reading."
"Me too. In fact I am a literature student."
"Finally found someone to discuss literature with." He said excitedly.
Prem and I hit it off instantly. He was an intellectual person.
Next day I went shopping with tania and met raghav in the mall. Tania had to leave early because of some work.
"I was looking at the clothes when raghav picked up a red top and said, "It will look good on you."
"I don't think so" said I.
"It's a gift. You are not allowed to make choices." Said he throwing the top on my face.
"That was rude weirdo." I said furiously.
"Who was that guy with you last night?" he asked furiously and leaned on me.
"You were there?"
"Who is he?" he looked annoyed.
"He's Prem, aunt's new neighbor. I saw him in your friend's party too. He's a nice guy"
"You just met him."
"So?" I asked.
"I hope you say the same thing about me to others." He smirked.
"No, I've known you for a while now." I said pushing him back.
"Whoa! You mean I am not a nice guy?"
"What were you doing there?" I changed the topic.
"Answer my question first."
"You're the best damn thing." I said sarcastically.
He smiled and said, "I may not be the best damn thing but I am the 'best' thing for you."
