Hello! Just binged watched 'Bhasker-Bharti' once again - an old comedic show on Sony long back and this features, Armaan and bharti. Loved their chemistry and comic timing and this takes place in a totally different setting - where Bhasker and Bharti are separate entities.
Hope you all like it.
Part A
_
She was at Franko's with her best buddies Payal and Zee both her childhood friends. Zee aka Zoya resided in London since the last five years since she got married and was occasionally there for her studies. Now she back during the summer.
"Oh shit yaar, she forgot my drink and sauce yaar! Ugh" she softly whined, just as she moved in to pick up her burger mid way.
"Oh no! That sucks man. How dumb of them! Zee frowned while holding on to lil' Ayaan of 1 year old, trying to reach forward way too eagerly for her coke.
"I'll go grab it for you, haan? I know you have been starving... Payal - the forever sweet heart and always ready to help. Bhasker and her very evidently and way long overdue were finally in a relationship since the past couple months and he took a week off from MU to spend a chill week in Gowaliar with his parents one and one with them after six months of being back to himself due the tragedy that struck him and finally everything was back to normal.
Bharti had been tirelessly working on her major promotional assignment which she had to go in early morning to submit to Amarjeet and came back and slept almost half the day and here they were eight in the evening for their dinner date in celebration of their reunion and promotion. And she barely had ate since morning and now shit like this annoyed her when she was bloody starving.
"Nahi yaar. I'll be right back. She got up mid bite and scooted out to stretch her arms to grab Ayaan as he was being fussy with Zee. "Wanna come with lala, baby and give me company? You enjoy till then." Zee insisted in being called khala to her kiddo, also lala for short.
Giving him a kissy on the cheek as he was just damn adorable, they headed together to the counter and waited in line as it was pretty crowded on a Friday night.

On the other hand, Armaan was here for dinner as well with his two buddies from MU as it was the long weekend. Being the Chief Head of the photography department since recently, he loved doing what he did. After chilling for a few mintues and debating each other's order, he got ready to order. Turning out in his chair for his leather jacket's pocket he took out his wallet and just as he was about to turn he spotted someone two tables to his right, in line with his vision who stood up and half of her body angle was in line with his vision and he froze.
No fricken' way. Few beats later, his heart started to drum as he in took a breath just as it had been doing for the three months since he moved from the basic small space to an actual broad office for being promoted in line with her office - since their MU office space was pretty huge over two floor and he had moved to the main one recently. Though he was given an assistant, he still was involved majorly in meetings and sessions regarding the blue print of the editorial which meant contact with the Editor in Chief of MU magazine highness herself most of time in person. Which clearly involved interaction in the elevator at times when they both got to the building around the same time and on a subtle note, they were professionally cordial and somewhat friends in an office setting basis.
Hope you all like it.

Which clearly involved interaction in the elevator at times when they both got to the building around the same time and on a subtle note, they were professionally cordial and somewhat friends in an office setting basis.
Since the couple of months being led with way more interaction with her than ever before, he had developed some sort of a liking an instance likeness towards her, a subtle attraction in his words, or he dare say a crush in the slang of an teenager. He was in his early thirties for god's sakes with an eight old daughter and he recently he had been somewhat behaving childishly as he was now. Completely in an awe and staring at her. She was here with her friends, carrying a toddler in an sleevless dark emerald green chiffon dress that fell just beneath her knees, encased with gold sequence around her mid v-neck line and arounsd the rim of the sleeves, rose gold studs and a hairopen to the side of her left shoulder. What a weird coincidence of being at Franco's around the same time on a Friday night.
"who are you having a staring contest with, buddy? His buddy on his very right nudged in the ribs, snickered distracting him from his thoughts.
Clearing his throat with his wallet in his hands, he stood up to put it in his jeans left pocket "no one. Just eyeing the crazy line up. I'll be right back, yea?"
...
"God, don't you just hate waiting when you're starving, hmm? Looking over at the little one, his hazel almond eyees, all big attentive and intrigued liking being all cuddled up in her arms and in a semi smiled hummed and squeeked in response, somewhat touching his head on her shoulder in affection as she patted bounced him and he straightned up to patting her left cheek and downwards in her below the shoulder length black wavy curls at the tips, clenching the hair in his fists patting and bundling it and feeling the texture, humming in response occasionally.
"Ayaaan, my hair sweety! As he started to tug it, giggling in response and twisting her right arm and wincing and struggles of releasing her hair, he held neck back instead and back to patting her hair.
"lala love you so so much babyyy. Thanks for visiting me again. So glad you're here. Can't wait until you have grown up. Cuddling him with both arms in a hug, she proceeded to ruffle his soft brown hair, kissing the top of his head.
suddenly, the person behind her gave her a harsh nudge forward with his tray turning his back to his table, making her take a step and instinctively put her right hand behind his back.
"Watch it, Mr! Loser! Shouting at him, she halfway turned facing the counter and bumped into someone's front as she took a step back and sensed someone softly, holding her elbow on her right. Turning the other side, a little stiffed, she faced the person, his touch still instilled on her elbow.
"Hey, you okay? He whispered concerned, holding on as he just got in line behind her and out of now where a customer just shoved in between the foot gap, startling both of them as he was on his phone and he caught her from tripping.
Sighing, "Yeah... what an idiot. Thanks though. Now facing him, a little relieved. "I was in my own zone and out of nowhere the guy just... Her dark brown doe-eyes, underlined with khol, startled and worrying lined in them alongside.
"I know eh. Startled me too. I was on my phone and uh..
"Thanks really. I would have almost tripped. Smiling, she eyed her elbow, where his hand was instilled and he pulled his hand back as he smiled back, a little awkward.
Few beats later, "You're here? Coincidental huh.
"Right? I thought the same, seeing you as well. As she eyed him, he cleared his throat jokingly, "I mean... just here with my buddies. You?
"Same reason. Needed a break after that huge tiring project.
"I'm sure Amerjeet will be thrilled as always, coming from you.
"Thanks.
"You, um.. look nice btw. He meaningfully made contact, appreciating her dress sense, her attractive features, fairness, sense of sass, wittiness, crazy intelligence and creativity that oozes out of her in the office setting all rolled into one.
Smiling, she sheepishly responded, looking down "really? ... I mean... you too. I mean ... You know
"I do?
"Um.
He chuckled kidding both hinting smiles.
"Waiting for food? He changed the subject
"Yeah, my forgotten drink.
"You?
"Just waiting to order.
"Right, it's crazy busy today. Ugh. Anyway, this little one here is Ayaan.
Eyeing the cutie, he brightly smiled and pulled a high five closer to him, an open palm awaiting his.
"Sweety, high five uncle Armaan. Taking his right curled hand, he shy smiled spreading through his lips, he mid-way snuggled into her hair and semi looked over as she uncurled it and high fived his tiny little hand against his. Her hand encased Ayaan, sandwitched between her and Armaan's hand, her finger tips touching his flat in the process, both smiling looking at their hands.
Just as she unfisted ayaan's palm to his and in the process, having her sides of the palm and fingertips mesh with his, he immediately stilled as she was busy baby talking to Ayaan. He could feel the tingles slightly and majorly through him, the softness of her skin ingraining on to his ones, sending his heart beats roller-coasting in effect wondering she could have felt the tingles or the quiver of his skin as he did. Sheepishly, internally denying and changing his thought process - he proceeded.
"Nice to meet you Ayaan. As he spoke, she made contact with him, hands still instilled as she looked over at Ayaan and back at him realizing their hand position and froze her smile, awkwardly pulling her hand back as well as Ayaan's.
