ARSHI FF: Addicted to Love (Chap 1) Pg 25 17/06 - Page 6

Aman: Hi! Arnav, whats up?

Arnav: Oh Aman, I am literally slacking my ass out in this shopping mall project yaar.

Aman: I am sure it is going to come out well.

Arnav: It has to yaar. You know how much energy I have wasted on this project. I have to get merit at any cost. Only a month left to submit the project in the college.

Aman: I still don't get your funda arnav. Tumlog ka khud a contruction firm hai then why the hell have you joined khuranas?

Arnav: It's all because of my dad. He wants me to gain experience first before I join him. He has always been very strict with me. And now his demand is I have to get merit on my internship and in the viva. Otherwise he will not let me take over AR.

Aman: Hmm, some people never change it looks like. I mean I know uncle has nurtured AR like his baby and made it to the top but he has never allowed you to take things easily. But in a way it is good for you. That has made you what you are. By the way its lunch time arnav (putting his palm on Arnav's shoulder)

Arnav: Oh f**k, why did not you tell me earlier? (he said looking at his watch) Bye Aman see you later.

Arnav took his bag and fled out of the office.

-----------------

I am sorry jaan, wrapping his arms around the soft waist of the lady he is madly in love with.

Lavanya turned towards him, "its ok ASR" she placed a peck on his lips, while he held her close to him.

Arnav, thanks sweetheart you always forgive me and I love you for that.

Lavanya: I know how important this work is for you honey and I appreciate that.

Pam and Silva said hi to arnav. They were Lavanya's colleagues cum friends in the fashion industry. They knew Arnav since childhood when they were teens. Lavanya and Arnav had always been good friends initially but gradually their friendship turned to love the day Arnav decided to propose her. And lavanya said yes. Four of them always used to hang around together.

Lavanya: Oh ASR today I am really really happy.

Arnav: Hmm he made a sad face. I know it very well why you are happy Lavanya.

Lav: Oh come on ASR you know its my dream to be an international model. And its just a matter of two months. After that I will be back to you. And even your internship will end and we can get engaged.

Arnav: Just a matter of one month? Its 60 days Lav. And you know I cant stay without seeing you evey damn day babes.

Lav: You can also com along with me

Arnav cupping her face " you know it babes I cant" I have to complete this assignment kisibi tarha se. you know my dad don't you?"

Lav: Awe baby. I know that (she said cupping his face). Well if you ask me I will stay back and I will not go.

Arnav: Please don't go sweetheart.

--------------------

This is the last call for the passenger Lavanya Kashyap who is traveling to London. We request you to board the flight.

Lavanya and Arnav broke the hug.

Arnav held her waist, I will miss you jaan.

Lavanya kissed him and said, its just a matter of two months then I will be back. And after that I will never leave you and go.

Arnav held her hand. Please don't go honey

Lavanya: I love you Arnav. Bye.

Arnav waved at her. He watch her flight took off. He felt sad. Very sad.

Arnav's house

Mamaji, I am making pasta today. You know lavanya used to love having pasta prepared by me. We offen used to have it during our lunch time. By the way what are you doing here?

Mamaji: I got a letter for you Arnav. Its from her.

Mamaji used to stay near Lavanya's PJ. She offen used to communicate through Manaji with Arnav whenever she had to send something for him.

Arnav: So, finally madan has got time to send me her cute letters.

Mamaji: It's not cute arnav, he said with a straight face. It's a break off letter.

Arnav: What are you talking about mamaji, can you please read it for me. I am sure koi galat faimi hui hai.

Mamaji was aware of arnav's obsession on Lavanya.

Mamaji: Well arnav it says, Hi arnav you don't know how happy I am in London, it's a dream come true for me, I don't want to come back in India and I don't want to continue this relationship with you. I know you have your work and you can never be with me.

Arnav headed towards his room and tookout some of his stuffs stuffed inside his bag while listening to the letter which his mamaji was reading.

Arnav: whats the postal address written?

Mamaji told him the postal address and continued'

You have your friend circle, your well established business and I cant be the princess of your so called palace. I know you love me a lot and even I love you a lot but we cant be together. Our profession is different and I want to become big, really big. I want people to recognize me in the fashion field which will not be possible if it am married to you. Your family is very orthodox and I cannot breadth the way I want to strying with them. So its better we part ways.

Arnav: Mamaji, tell dad I am leaving for London today.

Mamaji: Let me complete the letter arnav. The best part is'arnav'.arnav'wait

Arnav called the taxi and reached airport. He booked the next flight to London and flew off.

-------------------

In the plan, holding lavanya and his picture in his hand, Lavanya I am coming. I can leave everything for you. You don't need to stay with my family. We will stay in London we will start a life here babes. I love you so much.

He kissed their photograph.
