Hello Friends, Thank you very much for all your lovely comments, Here is the another part, Enjoy it.
Precap: Arman was looking for his book in a bookstore, and find a same girl from the morning holding the book in her hand.
PART 8
Riddhima was equally surprised to see the guy from the morning. "
Oh god, are you punishing me? I already told you that i do not want to see this guy again and its not even two hours, and here he is, standing right on my face?" Arman observed her face as she did not responded to him, but he understands her awkwardness after their encounter in the morning.
"Hey Riddhima, what are you doing here?"Riddhima turned and see Rahul is standing there with the guy.
"Hi Rahul, How are you? Sorry I did not see you before, I am here to buy the books for the classes, di is also here, she will be back in a minute, what about you?" Now it was time for Arman to surprise as he saw them talking like friends.
He Questioned Rahul with his eyes
" Who is she?" "Oh ! I am sorry, Arman this is Riddhima, Anjali's sister, she came yesterday from India, Riddhima, this is Arman,
The only person left in the group whom you have not met yesterday" They both looked at each other
" I already meet her in the morning, i did not know that you are Anjali's sister" Arman said to Rahul while still looking at her.
"Where did you meet her in the morning? Rahul asked Arman little surprised.
"
During Jogging" Riddhima quickly answered, as she does not want Arman to narrate the story in which she proved herself fool.
Arman acknowledged her discomfort and just smiled at her of assurance.
Anjali came meanwhile
" Hi Guys, what are you doing here?" "We are here to dance Anji, Come on yar, it is a book store what else can we do here?" Replied Rahul
"Stop it Rahul, You told me yesterday that you already bought the books for all three of you than why are you here today?"
"We are here to get this book for my immunology class, Rahul had reserved that book for me, and there is none left on the rack, so technically I should get this book"Arman points at the book Riddhima is holding.
"Why you should get the book? I got it first, so it belongs to me" Riddhima clutches it more tightly.
"But I have reserved it, so it will be unfair if I do not get it" Arman quipps back.
"Well, he is right, he should get the book when he had reserved it, but what will I do if I gave him this? But it will be wrong thing to do" Arman enjoyed her rapidly changing face expressions,
"She is like a kid, so transparent that any one can easily read her face, and from reading her face I am sure she is going to offer me the book in next five minutes" He thought and waited for her to speak.
"O.K. I think you keep the book as you have reserved it" Riddhima extends her hand to give him the book.
"No I think you keep it, I will get from other bookstore" Ridhhima gets confused and started thinking again. Arman smiled at his deliberate attempt to confuse her, he somehow enjoyed see her like that.
" ummm, I cant take it, please you keep the book" Riddhima said.
"Stop Guys, I will get it" Rahul snatched the book from Riddhima's outstretched hand.
Three of them looked at him and started laughing.
******************************
****
Rahul put his palm on Arman's forehead than place on his neck. They have already came back from the book store half hour back, sitting in their apartment and watching TV.
"What are you doing Rahul" Arman push rahul back on the couch and asked little irritated.
"Well, I am checking if you have any fever, you know there is virus going on causes encephalitis, causing infection in your brain and might be causing delirium, not oriented to time, place and person" Rahul tried to be as serious as he can suppressing his laughter.
"What do you mean dude, and I know what delirium is, stop giving me medicine lessons?"
"Well well, Your Highness VOLUNTEERED to study with a GIRL for the first time " Rahul teased him
"Stop it Rahul, I did not have any other option at that time, You were there when we talked to the lady in counter who find out that book is out of market right now and it will take around one month to get the new book. You know how demanding that class is, if I got the book than what will she do? How can she study? She is new man, she does not know how tough it is here! "
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, So you did that because you are worried about her study? Raja apni prja ka kitana khayal rakhte hai, so sweet Arman"
"Dont call me sweet Rahul, and anyway, it is just for one month we are going to study from one book!, You stop teasing me else you know that I am capable to Fedex you to Punjab and give the tracking number to Muskan."
Arman , I am not afraid of Muskan so stop threaten me using her name and start thinking what we will make for the get to gather at Dr. Kirti's home tonight? Rahul changed the topic as he do not wanted to talk to him about Muskan. He always fights with her, sometimes just to make her angry, he loved watching her talking in non stop punjabi mixed hindi when she got angry. He thinks its hialrious. He had not realise that he does this only with her and he liked her alot till few time ago Arman made him realise the fact.
" Oh, I totally forgot it, Are Atul kab kam aayega, ask him to cook something, he is less worse cook than us." They both did high five and laughed.
After sometime Arman got up and said "I am going to sleep little , wake me up when its time to go". Arman went to sleep in the bedroom. Rahul wanted to watch the moive coming on TV.
Arman was not tired or feeling sleepy but he needs little time alone. "Why am I feeling that something is different today? I am in the same apartment, same college, same friends, still I am feeling something new, something good has happened today! "
He remembered Riddhima's face covered with the dirt from morning, than he sees her confused face with the inner battle, which replaced by her smiling face like a kid.
" Riddhima" he spoke the name in his mind, "She is cute, just like an innocent five year old kid" He smiled, "I can see her smiling like that whole day without even blinking my eyes"Like a lightning struck him, he sits in the bed straight " what the hell are you thinking Arman, she just came, you barely knew her , and you are thinking some nonsense, I do not have time and place in my life for any girl, Get hold of yourself man! " He got up.
"Where are you going? Are you not suppose to sleep? Rahul asked him as he walked out with the Tennis bag in his hands.
"I am going for Tennis, see you later" Arman told him and left.
Rahul wondered what happens to Arman suddenly,First he wanted to sleep, and than he left for Tennis in half hour only. "He is just unpredictable". Rahul mumbled and continue to watch movie.
**********************************
"Dids, Can you taste this kheer and tell me if I need to add more sugar?"
Riddhima handed the spoon for Anjali.
"Ummmm Ridzi, it's so tasty, Just like mom made it, you know you have inheritate mom's all genes unlike me, I am a mutant in the family" Anjali taste the kheer and proclaimed. "I am going to tell everyone that I made this kheer"
"Oye sare india nu pata hai, ki tu kitani great cook hai Anjali" Muskan entered laughing with a bag in her hand
.
"Hi Muskan, come in, do you want to taste the kheer" Riddhima welcomed her.
"Hey muskan, I can cook, but I dont want to, understand?" Anjali mocked at her "I am going to get ready, Ridzi come on you also get ready, we will be late for the get to gather" Anjali went to change in the bedroom.
"Muskan, can you watch kheer on stove till I get ready?" Riddhima asked her.
"Oye dont worry, I am here, no fear, I will watch it, you get ready jaldi jaldi" Muskan went near the stove to keep eye on kheer.
Ridzi did you properly closed the lid of the container? Can we start now? I have got the keys. Ok Atul lets start! " Anjali said as she, Atul, Muskan and Riddhima comfort themselves in a car after half hour.
"I am so excited for the get to gather, it is the only time when you get to see Dr.Kirti and Dr. Shubhankar and their cute little daughter Tanya and that Rolu molu" said Muskan.
"His name is Ronak and Why dont you like him, Muskan? He is just five years old" Atul interrupted.
" Child? he is not child. He is gorilla. mera nal hamesha prank karta raheta hai, pata nahi kya problem hai mujse. Mujse kya sabse problem hai usko Arman ko chhod kar, Arman to uska hero hai! Hopefully aaj voh shant rahe, once he starts crying, even if the president himself comes to calm him down, he wont listen. I hope he plays nicely tonight and do not spoil the party" Muskan retorted.
"Come on Muski, He is just a child, can't you just forget that he pushed you in the mud water in the very first picnic" Everyone laughed on Anjali's comment. Muskan just came from India that year and all the new students went to the picnic with Dr.Kirti's family. Muskan started playing with the kids and during it Ronal pushed her in the mud water near the lake. She was all covered with the dirty water and mud, all over her body. Every one laughed at her, and till than it was the high topic to make fun of her or to irritate her.
"Thas not true Anji, you know his temper tantrums, don't you? By the way, Atul, where is rahul and ammy? Aren't they coming?"
"I just talked to Rahul , He and nikki are waiting for Arman so they will reach after he returns from the Tennis practice." Atul said.
"Arman plays Tennis?" Riddhima pleasantly surprised.
"What? Arman plays Tennis? dear, Arman just rocked the Tennis court, In the competition he strikes with the speed of leopard and finishes off his pray. Man he is just awesome, No one can ever defeat him in Tennis, Everyone else is like kide makode infront of him in Tennis." Muskan said excitedly.
"Muskan, Aren't you little over exaggerating? I know he is a Tennis champion by far but there are other good players too, even Ridzi also played for college and she is a champion there too" Anji said
"You? you played Tennis?" Muskan turn herself towards Riddhima and asked her.
"ummmmm Yes I do, I love to play Tennis" Riddhima replied softly
"But you can not beat Arman, I bet you" Muskan again shows her loyalty as a fan.
"What do you mean she can not beat Ammy, she can, she is a good player, you want to see her playing, than lets arrange one game for Ammy and Ridzi" Anjali said little frustrated. She knows Riddhima plays Tennis, although she was not sure that she plays well enough to beat a really good player like Arman. But she wanted to reply back to Muskan anyhow.
"Oye Anji, challenge? voh bhi Arman ko? Tennis me? Oye ho jaye, I will talk to Ammy in the party" Muskan said excitedly.
Riddhima who was not more than a mere observer till now felt little frustrated as Anji and Muskan both talked about her and Arman's game but did not consider to take her opinion.
"What will I do? I do not want to play with him? I wanted to keep our interaction at minimum, As it is, due to Anji and him , I have to study with him for a month for immunology class.How much I try to avoid him, he keeps coming in my way, what do you want god? I already behaved like a stupid , I wanted to stay as far as possible from him, Calm down Riddhima, he is just a guy, why are you so afraid of him? why do not you want to talk to him or be friend with him? he is a good friend of di. He behaves well today while going back to house from the bookstore. He might be a good guy but I still do not want to do anything with him, oh god, why am I so afraid of Arman???????????"
Riddhima came out of her thoughts when Anjali ask her to come out as they have arrived to Dr. Kirti's house.
