Is it love ??? (ArSh) imp note-Pg 27 - Page 7

Next morning:

Armaan slowly opened his eyes feeling the sun shining upon him. He rubbed his eyes and sat up thinking about last nights events. Whole night he kept on thinking the possibilities of them being together, can Armaan and Shilpa be one this thought brought a smile on his face. He knew he wouldn't find answers to his question overnight and hence he decided to go with the flow. He wanted to see what the future has stored for them, can they be together or not this answer will have to wait.

But he knew he liked the idea of shilpa being with him, all for himself. He wasn't fortunate enough to have a family, to share the bonds a normal family does. All his life, he lived alone and had very well learned to keep his emotions in check but shilpa was the only girl who had the power to shake his whole world. Her warm touch last night had created havoc in his body. The way she looked at him, her big almond shaped eyes had a hope. Though she herself didn't say what she felt for him, Armaan somewhere knew that she loves him or maybe like him.

Getting his mind straight, he went for a quick shower and came out only in his towels to see new pair of clothes lying on the bed.

Changing into the new comfortable pair of dark blue jeans and black shirt, he stared at his reflection. Having a satisfied look he came downstairs to the delicious aroma of home made food.

Entering the kitchen he saw shilpa working on the toppings of the salad she prepared. And not to forget the mouth watering Aloo-parantha's.

Feeling someone's presence shilpa turned to face a very dangerously hot looking man, Armaan.

Sh: Good morning.

Ar: Good morning [with a bright smile], the food smells delicious.

Sh:[smiling] Breakfast is almost ready, I'll just set the table.

Ar: Wait let me help you.

As soon as they were finished Ria entered making her presence known.

Ria: Molling massi , molling uncle [morning massi, morning uncle]

Ar: Morning Ria [with a bright smile]

Sh: Good morning baby, you ready.

Ria: yeshhh, Massi what have you made

Sh: I have made salad, pancakes and aloo-paratha's

Ria: yummy

Finishing the breakfast in a joyous mood, Armaan said.

Ar: I think I should leave, I'll meet you tom. Shilpa

Ria: And me [with a pout]

Bending to Ria's level Armaan gave her a big kiss.

Ar: You too sweetheart.

Ria: Promise

Ar: Promise.

Weeks passed by, but this incident had brought a change in two peoples life. Armaan never knew when his day started with shilpa and ended on her. He had become dependent on her, not that in past he wasn't but now the comfort level he started to share with her was different.

The case was similar with Shilpa, she knew they were coming closer but with that she also knew in the end it will hurt''a lot. She had started realizing that if the closeness between them didn't stop them the circumstances won't be good, atleast not for her. And this was seen by Armaan, he had started realizing that since few days, shilpa was maintaining a distance from him. She would talk to him only whehn necessary otherwise there would be a complete silence.

He didn't like this, he wanted the same shilpa back who knew what she wanted, who is not only stubborn but has the power to make any one surrender in front of her. The bold, witty shilpa had suddenly turned into a quite and calm person. The way she carried herself made Armaan feel strange as if there was a storm building inside her which she was trying to stop. He wanted her to speak her heart but knew that wouldn't be easy. This sudden calmness seemed the start''. The start of something big , certainly not good.
