Chapter 2 :
Khushi got down from bus and started walking towards her house. Its strange that, that guy knew her name and she, an idiot, doesn't even knew his existence in her class.
' Tomorrow I will ask Lavnya about him ' , she thought and rung the bell. As usual, cursing were heard outside...a topic for society to gossip about. Damn ! She was back to her "Ugly" world.
" So, madam is back...another liability of this family ! I am telling u get her married..! " Khushi's Daadi started it again.
" Daadi , please. Stop it ! I am not getting married anytime soon. Did u get it?? " , Khushi yelled at her and went to her room crying.
" Yes, yes...this is what ur mother teaches u behind the closed doors...you.." Daadi kept yelling.
Khushi was crying really hard. But, it was her daily task. Come home, hear cursing, and cry. She was fed up of it.
*Ring*
Khushi's cell rung. It was Lavanya.
" Hello ! Yaa, say Lavanya. " Khushi attended the call.
" You are crying again. Oh God ! Khushi please don't cry! I am there with u naa..!!
" I am not crying yaar ! Because i know u r there for me. " Khushi replied.
" Aww..!! Okay ! So, you are coming to college tomorrow naa? " La questioned.
"You called me to ask this?? Of course I am coming. " Khushi replied.
" Okay! Bye. " La hung up.
' I will surely come La, after all i want to know who is he? ' Khushi said in her mind and went for dinner.
* Next Morning *
Khushi got up and got ready for college early then any other day. She came to her dressing table and assured if everything was fine. She saw her earings were not going well with her dress...so, she took out new Jhumkas and wore them. Checking back again, she made her way to college. She reached her college before time and was waiting for La...and Him !
College opened on its time and students started coming. Khushi , every now and then was assuring that her dress was fine. She was checking everything when someone patted at her shoulders. It was La.
" Hi La ! Good morning ! Umm... am I looking fine? I mean is everything matching?? " Khushi asked her.
" Wow! madam. What's the matter Hun? You are smiling today...for the first time asking about ur outfits...huh... " La teased her.
" Nothing! Was just asking...and u...Huh...m not talking to u " Khushi said, a bit irritated.
" Arre...Sorry sorry ! You looking pretty today. Actually better than any other day. You know why... 'coz today u r smiling ! " La appreciated.
" Thank u ! " Khushi replied blushing. "Lets go now . "
They entered their class. Khushi started searching for Him. She couldn't find him...a bit disappointed she sat at her bench. Suddenly, someone wearing blue jeans and black T- shirt entered the class.
' Wow ! How dashing he is looking ! ' Khushi thought.
He sat on his bench and started looking for someone. He looked at here and there...until he found Her.
Khushi was still staring at him. He looked at her, passed sexy smirk and waved to her. Khushi looked at her back...to ensure if he was waving to her or not. She did not find anyone. Assured that he was waving at her, she waved him back and gave a broad smile.
"Ahem ", La interrupted. "Erm...Khushi, so that was the reason for ur smile. "
Khushi blushed a bit.. " Um...no no..."
" La...i wanted to ask... " Just then, teacher entered n her question died down there.
After the class was over, Khushi for a while forgot about Him. She as usual packed her bag and was waiting for La at the college gate.
* Ring *
Khushi's cell rung. " Hello ! Yes, Amma say.
" Khushi beta ! Woh... " Her mother was on the other side...who was interrupted by someone.
" Listen ! You girl...dare u get late...!! I have invited someone for ur marriage proposal... I want you to reach here by 3 anyhow...did u get that..?? " Shouted her granny at phone. And she hung up.
" Khushi was in tears again...but she wiped it fast...she was in her college...she can't cry like this. Khushi was cursing her fate when suddenly..
" Hi Khushi ! " Someone came to pull her out from that black hole. She looked back and saw him again...smiling.
" Hey ! What happened? You don't seem fine " He said.
No one...no one till date was able to figure out that Khushi was crying. She was expert in hiding them. But, today...he found it...How? She wondered.
" Um...nothing. Its that...um.. i was not feeling well. " Khushi tried to hide again.
" You know what...You are expert in hidding ur emotions. That' not fair yaar. That means you do not consider me as ur friend. " He replied.
Friend?? When did they become friend? Khushi was confused now...totally confused.
" Hey Khushi...Okay fine...You don't wanna share...then don't. But, if any day you want to share something...n you need someone...just call me. Tell me ur number...I'll message mine just now. "
Khushi became dumb. Number?? Her number?? Her very own Number. Khushi was wondering .
" Khushi?? Your number. " He asked.
" Um...yeah.. " She gave him. " But just message me first wenever u r calling."
" Okay ! Umm...even u too do the same thing. Bye ! " and he waved her a good bye.
Khushi kept waving till he was out of sight...actually even after that. She would have kept waving if La wouldn't have bang on her car's horn.
" Whom are u waving?? I can't see anyone..😕 " La asked.
" No one ! " Khushi retrieved herself back.
She sat on the other side of driver's seat. She was thinking of him. She was wondering about him...how he knew she was not fine...he asked her number...she gave him.
Dammit ! She didn't knew his name stil..
" Umm...La...um...do u know...u know...his name. " Khsuhi asked hesitantly.
" Who he" , La asked
" Erm...he...that black shirt...blue jeans guy ", khushi said.
" Who? " La was teasing her now.
" La, please naa...tell na. " Khushi was again irritated.
" Okay okay...!! He is Arnav..Arnav singh Raizada." , La informed.
' Arnav. ' Nice name. Khushi thought...and again got lost in His world...in Arnav's world.
