Taking a chance in love
Chapter 01 - Chance meetings
"We don't meet people by accident. They are meant to cross our paths for a reason"
"So Bhai I have checked these documents but it's better if you just read it once before..."
Abhi drifted away as Purab began explaining the documents to him. The past few weeks have been so tiring. But it was good in a way. It helped him to forget, or rather to postpone making decisions he had to make some day. Soon.
Abhi ran his hand through his face. His baseball cap was covering most of his face. Last thing he wanted was to get identified by a crazy fan.
But who would think that they would ever find Rockstar Abhi sitting in the furthest corner of a suburban quiet cafe, most of his face covered, dressed in casual cloths, drinking coffee on a busy weekday?
Well, it's not like he is one of those celebrities who run away from their fans. Rather he enjoys the attention. Well, more like used to enjoy. But not today. Today he just wanted to be left alone.
"So Bhai you really need to sign these today itself.."
Purab handed him a file breaking his train of thoughts.
Abhi groaned and pushed the file away. He grabbed his coffee to find it empty already.
"Purab you know what I really need right now?"
"One black coffee!"
Exactly! Abhi craned his neck to look at the owner of the voice.
But the owner, a girl was facing the other way as she placed her order.
"Bhai please focus! This is important!"
Abhi turns back to Purab and motions him to continue.
"So Bhai Mr Lalwani is going to meet you..."
Abhi is soon distracted again as he sees a steaming black coffee being carried to the counter.
Abhi sees a hand reaching out to hold the cup. A hand covered with multicolored gypsy bangles.
The girl slowly turns while being careful with the cup in her hand.
Abhi quickly takes in the sight before him.
Huge Chashma, messy plaited hair on the side, scrunched up nose and forehead as she tried her best to not to spill her coffee, yellow summer dress falling up to her knees, petite frame, over-sized bag! Nerd type! Well, a cute nerd!
Abhi watches her walking to the opposite end of the cafe. She sits in the corner and makes herself comfortable and after awhile brings a book out of her over-sized bag and begins reading while sipping on the coffee.
Abhi mentally sighs seeing the picture before his eyes.
He cannot help but be slightly jealous of the nerd for being so... for being so free! Being so her!
All his life he wanted to become a Rockstar, to be famous, to be known by all! But now when he has achieved all that he wished he could go back to his early days.
Abhi breaks away from his train of thoughts and opens the file given by Purab.
********
Abhi stood up reluctantly to leave the park. Coming here reminded him of his childhood. That could also be the reason why he frequented here often now, Abhi pondered.
He was walking towards the entrance when he saw the kids. A boy nearly 10 years old was being chased by a much younger girl. Probably his sister, Abhi mused as memories flashed before his eyes, memories of another sibling duo... Memories of him and Aaliyah. Aaliyah who...
No!
Abhi panicked seeing the girl fall down few feet away. Her brother was running away unaware of his sister's plight. A cyclist turned from the corner and sped up unaware of the child lying few feet away.
No!
"Look ..." Abhi began only to cut off by another voice.
"Look out!"
Abhi heard a voice calling out and saw a flash of multi colored gypsy bangled hand grabbing the child just in time.
He paused in his tracks seeing the same face he saw couple of days ago in the cafe.
Multi colored bangles:check, Huge Chashma: check, cute scrunched up nose and forehead: check, but this time more out of worry and concern for the child.
Small side bag! No plait! Loose messy hair flowing all over her face in the soft breeze. White T-shirt and denim.
He saw her handing the child to a woman, probably the mother.
He debated a second whether to go over or to just leave. What do I say to her? Hello, I saw you few days ago in a cafe? And what if anybody recognized me? Nah, it's better to leave.
He continued to walk towards the entrance passing her and the small crowd while pulling his cap down making sure his face is covered.
********
It has been ages since he last saw Indu Daasi. Though she was technically Purab's Daadi, Abhi knew she loved him as much as she loved Purab from their childhood.
Abhi got down from the car and instructed his bodyguards to stay put. Indu Daasi was the most jovial person he knew, but she absolutely hated entertaining his bodyguards in her home. Abhi had no objections whatsoever. Deep down he welcomed her decision wholeheartedly because it gave him the false sense of assurance that nothing has changed.
Everything was just as it was... Only if Aaliyah... No! He is not going to think all this today.
Abhi started towards Indu Daasi's home when his eyes fell upon the flower boutique right opposite the street.
Flowers! Indu Daasi loves flowers!
Better get some for her. He walked up to the boutique and ordered a dozen of red roses.
Hmm... Red roses! Abhi could see why a sworn romantic like Daasi would prefer red roses over other flowers. But still... Red roses are so over rated!
There are many other flowers which is way more beautiful than red roses... Like for example...
"Orchids! White orchids..."
Exactly!
Abhi looked to his side to see the owner of the voice and nearly dropped the bouquet in his hand.
Wait! What! Not again! Seriously? This can't be happening!
Multicolored bangles, huge Chashma, cute scrunched up nose and forehead as she searched her purse for change.
Oversized bag and messy side plait were back. This time a floral skirt and a white tucked in t shirt!
She collected the bouquet and turned to leave but stopped seeing him.
Abhi suddenly became aware of him standing stiff with his mouth agape open. He quickly closed his mouth and flashed a smile.
She returned an unsure smile and went ahead to cross the road.
Abhi watched her cross the road and suddenly on an impulse dashed after her.
