Chapter 1
At RM
Arnav: So I should reach Sydney by Wednesday evening. I'm leaving tomorrow morning.
Akash: Ok Bhai. I'll pick you up then.
Arnav: I'll call you when my flight lands. Is that fine?
Akash: Sure. Bhai, mujhe jaana padega. Someone's at the door.
Arnav: Chal, Bye. I'll call you when I leave Delhi.
Akash: Bye.
Arnav thought he should go and tell Nani and the rest of the family members that he had called Akash and had confirmed that Akash would be picking him up. He closed his cupboard and went down to the lounge room. He bumped into Alisha, as she was reading her magazine. He caught her before she stumbled and pulled her towards him.
Alisha: Sorry bhaiyya, I got so engaged in my magazine, ke maine dekha nayi aapko. Thank god you caught me !
Arnav: Arey, koi baat nayi chotti. Yeah, be thankful that you have a brother who catches his sister when she falls. You should be proud!
He teased her and ruffled her hair. They both laughed and then Arnav let go of his sister. They went down to where the family members were sitting.
Arnav: Nani, maine Akash se baat karli hai, aur voh mujhe Sydney airport se pick up karlega. Main kal subah yahan se nikal jaounga.
Nani: Tikhe Chotte. Have you packed everything you will need ?
Arnav: Ji Nani.
Anjali: Toh Chotte tum Sydney ja rahe ro. Vahan par kitni ladkiyon ko apne jaal mein fasana hai?
She teased him. Arnav smirked, as he thought how well his Di knew about his habits.
Arnav: Di...uhh pata nayi. Agar koi plane mein hi mil jaye toh use kaam chalalunga.
Anjali shaked her head...laughing.
Anjali: Tum kabhi nayi sudroge!
Arnav: I know. Im gonna go and sleep now. K ? Good night.
Anjali: Good night chotte.
He went back to his room and checked if everything had been packed. Feeling sleepy, he went to bed reminding himself that his flight was early in the morning.
