Arnav : Hello...
Khushi : Hi darling how are u ??
Arnav almost forgot breathing.
Arnav : What ??
Khushi : Aww..I'm fine jaanu.(sweetheart)
Arnav ; Its..its Khushi isn't it..
Khushi : Hehehe ! U'r..ur so naughty...
Arnav : What the !!
Khushi : I know ur thinking about me..actually i'm also thinking about you. ( in a baby tone ) [my sweetheart is angry]
Suddenly a thought struck Arnav..
Arnav : Are..are..u playing that..that game again !!
Khushi : So...when will u meet me dear...i'm dying to see you !!
This was enough for Arnav.
He was hell confused and didn't know what was going on.
He cut the call in frustration.
Khushi's House
Arnav had cut the call...
But Khushi was still holding the phone and babbling to..umm..maybe some Mr.India or probably the wall.
Khushi : Ohh..that Moron Rohan !!Yeah..i dont care...
Wall : ...
Khushi : Of course...i have totally forgotten that Ass !! He was just a good for nothing.
Wall :...
Khushi : Hmmm...I dont give a damn about him..let him enjoy with all his dumb girlfriends. I'm really happy with you.
Wall :...
Khushi : Aww...i love u too !!
Wall : ...
Khushi : Muah Jaanu !!
After a few more minutes of babbling with the wall , khushi narrowed her eyes and glanced behind at the door of her apartment.
There was no one there.
Khushi walked towards the door and peeped out looking all around.
She slowly closed the door and sighed.
Fhooo !!! Oh god !! That pervert idiot is finally gone.
Khushi went to the drawing room and sat down with a thud.
This was the only way to get rid of that Rohan !!
She was going to call one of her colleague , Mansi but when Rohan suddenly came she without looking pressed the call button but didn't know how she called the next contact number 'Mr.Wrong Number'.
Khushi realized the blunder only after she heard his voice..but it was too late till then and she had to proceed with her drama of calling her boyfriend!!
But..ohh !! She is so stupid..that she called Mr.Wrong Number...none but him who was a stranger !!
Ughh...why did she have to do it.!!
And that poor guy , he was totally flabbergasted hearing her nonsense.
I should call him..call and apologize.
Ok khushi..just call him and say sorry.
Khushi took her phone and called Mr.Wrong Number.
Her heartbeat increased with each ring..
Finally he picked the call up after 3 rings.
Hello...
Khushi was silent
Hello...arnav said again.
Khushi took a deep breath
umm..im really sorry..she said in a somewhat shaky voice.
Miss.Khushi..u..arnav tried to speak.
Vo..Actually..actually..i was...Khushi stammered.
Were u playing truth or dare again.??arnav asked suspiciously.
Uhh..no..i was..i was..actually,,
Arnav didn't know wiht to say..he just waited for Khushi to speak.
See..its just that there is a guy who's bugging me from a long time and so i wanted him to think that i'm talking to my boyfriend and i wanted to call someone else but by mistake i called you and i am really SORRY for saying all that nonsense !!
Khushi babbled in one single breath without stopping.
Khushi then took a deep breath.
She waited for Arnav to say something.
After a few seconds she finally heard him.
Chill..its Ok Miss..miss..Khushi. Breath first.
Khushi breathed a few more times before speaking.
Thanx...but im really sorry for that..
Theres no need to apologize so many times...Its Ok !! Arnav re assured..
But can i ask u something..Arnav asked in an unsure tone.
Yeah sure...Khushi felt a bit relieved now.
I..i had cut the call in between..so what did u do after that ?? Arnav asked in confusion.
I was too desperate to make that idiot believe that im talking to my BF so i kept blabbering even after u had cut the call.I imagined as if i'm talking to the wall. Khushi bit her lower lip trying to control her laughter on her stupidity.
Wall ?? really ?? Arnav raised his eye brows.
Ahaan...i had no choice then , otherwise that scumbag would understand i was just acting.
Arnav smiled again...
The crazy talks of this girl actually made him feel happy inside.
Arnav was about to speak when she interrupted..
So wud u be my friend ?? Khushi asked cheerfully.
Arnav was silent for a moment..but then he smiled.
Sure why not.
But i have a condition..khushi suddenly snapped.
What..arnav scrunched his eyebrows.
Stop calling me Miss.Khushi..its just Khushi.
Ok..ok..Khushi. he sighed.
Khushi literally was the first female friend he had.
Even in skool and college days , he always stayed away from girls...far away.
He suddenly he felt , Khushi was quite.
Hello..he said to check if she was there.
Ohh..yeah..yeah.
What happened he asked casually..
Vo..nothing i was just thinking of something. But can i ask you something. ??
Hmm..ask Arnav said calmly.
Uh..i..i wanted to ask..u
Hmmm...Arnav waited for her to complete.
What ur name...?? Khushi felt a bit embarrassed.
Ohh..i'm..i'm Arnav he said with a half smile. But i guess i told u last time didn't i.
Well yes u did..but i forgot !! Khushi bit her lip again.
But then..why did u save my number..and by what name.
Khushi went into silent mode again..she herself didn't know why she saved his number.
U there..Miss.Khushi ??
Oh..haa !! I..i..
But then she thought of answering the second question.
Vo..i saved ur Number as Mr...Wrong..Number she said with pauses.
Hahaha...Arnav stated laughing.
Yeah !! Arnav was actually laughing..
And hearing him laugh Khushi started laughing too..
After a minute they both finally stopped .
Can i say something..Arnav asked hesitantly.
Hey why are you asking me..of course you..after all you r my friend now !! can Khushi said in her usual chirpy voice.
U know..u are my first female friend...in fact you are the first person i m talking to..i mean im talking like this after a long time.
After Naani's death..i..i felt really broken..but even then u consoled me..and now i
Thanx Khushi for that day he said in a low voice,
Khushi smiled again hearing his honest words...!!
No..Arnav dont say like that.U knw Arnav..i was 8 when i lost my family...i then lived in an orphanage for for 10 years..without anyone.
I very well know how it feels to loose someone u love. So i could totally understand ur pain.
A lone tear escaped Khushi's eye , She wiped it and closed her eyes.
Are u ok Khushi ? Arnav asked.
Hmm..im fine khushi smiled.
Arnav wanted to lighten up her mood so he suddenly asked.
Hey Khushi , whic phone do u have ??
Khushi was starled by his sudden question..
What ?? Khushi asked.
Well which phone do u use ?? arnav said again.
I..im using a blackberry..she said hesitantly.
Thats great !! Arnav said Cheerfully...so ur on BBM !!
Ohh..yeah..u too ?? Khushi asked..her voice sounded happy again.
Yup !! Arnav snapped.
Ok...so we can chat their can't we..khushi exclaimed.
Yeah...arnav sounded chirpy too.
Ok..then..it was really nice talking to u Arnav..u know i was in a very bad mood from the past few days..but im feeling much better after talking to u.
See...its like a tit for tat...last time u helped me, this time i did Arnav said with grin.
Hmmm...sighed Khushi
Ok..then Bye.. Arnav said...
Bye Arnav..Khushi smiled.
Bye.
They finally kept the phone.
Arnav was relaxing in his as it was a sunday morning.
After a long time he was talking to someone so freely...
Though Arnav was very friendly by nature..but he was very reserved with girls.
He slowly leaned on the recliner and closed his eyes.
On the other hand Khushi was lost deep into her thoughts.
She decided that she wud never trust men after the Rohan Fiasco took place.
But after talking to Arnav..she felt really nice...she felt very happy.
She very much wanted to share her problem with Arnav..but then she felt that he was someone she didn't know personally..and so she was somewhat apprehensive about trusting a stranger with whom she had conversed only a couple of times that too on phone.
Though He sounded like a very decent and honest person..but of course Khushi cant trust anyone like this.
However , somewhere her heart believed that..he was totally trustworthy.
And in the absence of payal , the only friend she had was Arnav - Mr.Wrong Number !!!
A involuntary smile appeared on her face.
