Alicia: u here at this time…
Person: yes me…
Alicia: OMG ur all wet…come on in…what happened?
The guy comes in we get to see it's none other than Jason…
Jason: oh…nothing…I was outside walking down the streets thinking about u…when it started raining and I wished u were there with me…
Alicia: aww…that's so sweet
Jason: I know it is…
Alicia laughs and says: I'll get u a towel…
Jason is looking around the place…
Alicia comes back and gives him the towel…
Alicia: so did u just decide to take a shower in the rain?
Jason: yes…don't u know how fun it is?
Alicia: no
Jason: u mean to say u have never ever danced in the rain or just walk in it?
Alicia: no…I hate getting wet…
Jason: really
Alicia: really
He comes closer to her and shakes his hair so the water falls on her face…
Alicia: what r u doing?
Jason: getting u wet…
Alicia: no ur not and starts to run when he grabs her wrist and twirls her around so she's facing him…
Jason: Alicia I know that we don't even know each other for more than 24 hours but I think…
Alicia: u think…
Jason: I think that…
Alicia: that…
Jason: I think I'm falling in love with u…
Alicia shocked by what he said loosens his grips and move…
Jason: I'm really sorry if this is too fast for u but I was just telling u my true feelings...
Alicia too shocked to speak…
Jason: cum on say something
Alicia: I dun know wht to say…I mean ur going way to fast for me… I mean I like u and everything but I don't know if I wanna be committed…
Jason: fine…I'll be leaving…when u figure out…don't bother to tell me…and he starts to leave…
Alicia: listen to me…
Jason: listen to what…listen to the fact that the woman I love just likes me…and she doesn't wanna be wid me…
Jason leaves…
Alicia is left thinking and doesn't know wht to do…it has been more than 2 hrs and she finally decides to go to his apt.
She goes in the hall and bumps into someone in the hall but doesn't see who it is…anyway she reaches there and knocks on the door but there is no respond…she thinks he's not there…but then she hears voices she moves the door knob and the door opens…she enters and sees Jason making out with some girl…too shocked by what she sees…she accidentally knocks over a glass and it falls…Jason and the girl break their kiss…He looks at her…Alicia just leaves his apt. crying thinking how cud he do this…
Jason comes out and says: Alicia wait listen to me…
Alicia: listen to u…OMG ur such a jerk…I mean u just made me feel so guilty for hurting ur feelings and what do u do go with another girl…I came here to apologise to u but ur not even worth that...
Jason interrupts: it's not my fault
Alicia: its not ur fault…oh so u mean to say its my fault…I know all guys are like this trying to make it our fault make us feel guilty just to get rid of the blame and clear ur own conscience… I really thought maybe this cud be the real thing but u had to ruin everything didn't u…
He tried to hold her hands to make her calm down…
Alicia: don't u dare touch me ever again…and leaves
Jason is left there speechless…
She reaches her apt. crying and opens the door and slams it then she has her back to the door and burst into more tears and sits on the floor crying loudly…
Rishi hears it and comes outside and sees her crying…
Rishi: r u ok?
Alicia doesn't respond…
Rishi sits down in front of her and holds her face and says: plz tell me…what's wrong? Did I hurt u in someway…if I did I'm really sorry…
Alicia puts her arm around him and hugs him tightly…She felt like she needed someones support at this time and by being in his arms she felt safe and comforted…Rishi surprised by this gesture of hers doesn't know to hug her or not…he finally hugs her…after 15 minutes he realizes she stopped crying and is about to leave her when he notices she went to sleep…he picks her up and puts her on his bed…he puts a blanket on her…he looks at her and sees how peacefully she is sleeping…for the first time he feels attracted to her he thinks she's so beautiful and she is made for him…and only for him…he goes closer to her and kisses her lightly on her cheeks…he then goes outside and sleeps on the sofa…for the first few hours he is tossing and turning around but then finally he finds a comfortable spot and he goes to sleep…
Next Day-
Its morning in NY and the sun is coming through the window on Alicia's face…she gets annoyed and puts the pillow on her face…when an alarm rings…she turns it off…and she sits up and stretches her arm and realizes she is in Rishi's room and on his bed…she couldn't remember what happened yesterday night cuz she's too tired…she decides to get out of his bed…she sees Rishi outside sitting and read the newspaper…He looks at her and smiles…
Rishi: Good morning…did u sleep well?
Alicia: yes…but I hv a question
Rishi: I know wht ur gonna ask me…aren't u gonna ask me how u wounded on my bed?
Alicia: yes
