okay so more thing before you go on to the story in this chapter text that i write in bold italics like this will denote the conversation between arjun and arohi...MILEY JAB ARJUN AROHI:
Arohi reached the venue half an hour early as didn't want to miss even a minute with arjun and was surprised to see him already there sitting at the table where she had seen him for the first time'a huge smile came on her face and she went and sat on the table opposite to him'he was smiling and his eyes weren't that sad today they were'she couldn't find the right word'they were'hopeful'for what??what was he hoping for??she had no idea'she just smiled to him
Arjun looked at arohi for the first time'she was as beautiful as her gesture and her heart'he just couldn't take his eyes off her'then she smiled at him'he couldn't believe this beautiful girl was sitting with him and that her breath taking smile was for him'it took him to some other dimension altogether'
Both of them were nervous neither knew what to do or say'not because they were out of words but just because they were afraid they might say something wrong'they had never felt this anxious and self conscious in the presence of any person before' arjun as a gentleman told the waiter to take arohis order first'she asked the waiter to get her usual and arjun said he would have the same thing what she was having'they ordered lunch and ate it silently'the ambience in the hotel was so silent they didn't feel like talking and violating that silence'after they had completed their lunch arjun escorted arohi out of the hotel'both were feeling uneasy neither knowing what to do'but they were sure of one thing they didn't want to leave each other'arohi was about to say something when arjun interrupted'
"I m sorry that didn't go too well'damn that hotel seemed more sunsaan and silent than a graveyard today'if u don't mind can we have that due conversation of ours now?"
"well'the parking doesn't really seam that bright a spot to converse'lets go some place else?"
"okay this time you decide where we are going'you are a mumbian if I m not wrong'you know the place better'"
Arohi had brought her car but walking would increase her time with arjun so she wanted to walk to it "hmm'okay I'll take you to my favorite place very less people know about it'" saying this she held her hand out for arjun
Arjun did not ask her where they were going nor how'he just grabbed her hand and smiled'and they both started walking hand in hand to their love spot as is would be known to them from then on'in that moment in that silence in that walk arjun and arohi felt something they had never felt before'they were content in that silence'happy in that moment like they had never been before' they had something they wanted the most at that moment each others company they could keep walking like that forever and they wouldn't know the difference'finally after a walk of half an hour which dint even feel like a minute to them they reached the park arohi was talking about'
It was a secluded ground which was converted into a small park with a few benches and a little greenery which overlooked a small lake'it looked like the definition of beautiful'arjun fell in love with the place in first look itself'the expression on his face was exactly the same as to that of arohi when she had found that place'she directed him to a bench and both stared into each others eyes for a moment and then realized that if they didn't talk to each other now they might not get another chance and both spoke at once'both laughed'arohi became silent and turned so that she faced arjun and looked at him as him giving him signal that he could speak and start the conversation'
Arjun understud it
"thank you so much arohi for accepting my invitation it means a lot to me"
"It's no big deal arjun I wanted to come"
" I hope you didn't mind me asking your number from karan'he was very sweet to me I thought it wouldn't be a problem'how do you know him?"
"Sweet'haha'why isn't he ever sweet with me'always fighting'but however he is I love him a lot"
Arjun was sad on hearing this she loved someone else his ray of hope seemed to be creating more darkness'
Arohi couldn't understand why his eyes were sad again and it clicked'arjun had misunderstood'the way she thought rashi was his girlfriend arjun had thought karan was her boyfriend'she controlled her laughter at the thought of karan being her bf with great effort so as not to offend him'
"I m really happy that atleast for once in his life time my brother listened to me and treated you well'I didn't think he would do it'"
Oh so karan was her brother the ray of happiness glowed brighter than before'
"oh so hes your brother? now I know where you got your sweetness from'so who else is there in your family?"
"Like everyone has I have my mum and dad'they are a bit busy with the family business but I love them neverthe less'Well theres my mahan karan bhaiyya whom u've already met and then my partner in crime shaurya bhaiyya hes in us completing his mba I miss him a lot we used to do all sorts of pranks together' and then my darling dadi'"
"That's very nice'so good to hear that you have a complete life' and family most people don't have that everyone isnt so lucky"
And there was that sadness in his eyes again'she couldn't bring herself to ask the reason for it feeling that she might be asking something too private'
"Your sister rashi is very pretty'I could from even far off how much you both loved each other'and ya did I mention that I was sorry to eaves drop on you?"
Arjun couldn't resist smiling when she was acting so kiddish and cute wontedly so as to change the topic and his glum mood'
" Yeah you meantioned it once'but I haven't forgiven you'if you want forgiveness then you have to tell me honestly that how was it that I inspired you?"
Arohi was very embarresed but she couldn't deny him'arjun ne jis hak se usse reason pucha tha denying him might result in him never asking anything again'
" okay then please forgive me I'll tell you'well you must get this a lot'but you have very beautiful and intense eyes'I m currently writing a romantic novel and I don't even understand the r of romance'I wasn't able to understand how people fall in love in first sight and at that moment I saw your eyes then I saw the relation between you and rashi and to be frank I was very impressed and I understud how someone could like a person in first meet without knowing them"
Arjun was stumped by her honest answer he didn't even think she would reply'
"Your forgiven arohi'and no I don't get that a lot'maybe cause I didn't give anyone the chance to say anything to me till now'"
And there was that sadness again'she had to change the topic
"Hey you called me for celebrating you getting a house I think na'don't I get to see it?"
Arjun had taken a few picture of him and rashi in the house from his cell while he was taking his cell from his pocket his wallet fell open on the ground and his parents last letter slipped out and started flying towards the lake'the expression on arjuns face was as if someone was sucking his life away he couldn't even move'by this arohi understood that it must be something important and ran after it and caught it in time if even she had been a second late the letter would have fallen in the lake'arjun had recovered from shock and was just behind her when she turned'he had tears in his eyes she didn't understand this reaction of his'
"hey arjun its ok see I saved it" and handed the letter to arjun'he safely put it in his pocket he was so overcome by emotion one more second and wo apne parents ki akhri nishani kho deta'if she wasn't there than what would have happened??he caught arohi with both his hands tears now flowing from both his eyes'even the thought of loosing that letter his only comfort in the bad times was excruciatingly painful' Arohi didn't understand what was happening but she knew that that letter held some great emotional value for him'she wanted to do something for him seeing him cry wasn't a very good feeling for her'it was like she was feeling his unspoken pain'she didn't understand what to do to make him feel better'she thought that maybe it was a emotional moment for him and anything she said or did wouldn't make a difference'so she let him speak his heart out'maybe he would feel better'
"You have no idea what you have done for me arohi...this is my most precious possession in this whole world' I felt I had lost it and froze in my place' I don't know what I would have done if I lost it'you indebted me for life by saving this letter'thank you so much'I cant even tell you how grateful I am"
Saying this arjun wrapped both his arms around arohi pulled her closer to him and hugged her tightly as if she was the force that was holding him on earth rather than gravity'the tears still flowing through his eyes'arohi wrapped both her hands tightly around him'and tried to console him'there was so much sadness filled inside him for some reason her analysis about his eyes was correct he was very very sad about something'this was the first time that she wished she wrong just so that he would have been happy rather than sad'
