Chapter Four ---- How I Met You

PART 1

'Hey handsome!' said Muskaan as she wink to a white guy passing by. Payal and Kushi watched Muskaan with wide eye while Muskaan flirt through her eyes with the stranger, Muskaan was too busy to notice Kushi and Payal astonishment. Finally Payal and Kushi (who had her jaw dropped) expression were noticed by Muskaan 'What?' she asked but before any of the two open their mouth to speak Muskaan continue with her reply 'I dont mind complimenting finer things in life...' Muskaan finished with a satisfied smile on her face. Kushi looked from angry and stern Payal to mischiviouse Muksaan 'but are you the same girl who was crying and cursing to all the boys in general... just few minutes ago' asked Kushi turning her body to a side as she leaned in more towards the table. 'Thats Muskaan for you Kushi' said Payal while hitting Muskaan on her head lighlty 'Oh hello? I didnt cry okay... I was upset' said Muskaan clearing any doubts. 'Oh...' said both Payal and Kushi very seriously looking from one and to another before all three of them burst out laughing and exchanged high fives. As the three of them had their continuous chat about everything and anything, getting all the gossip from Muskaan and Payal, getting taught something new and intelligant by Kushi and having alot of crazy moments the three girls were lost in their own world. Kushi who was suprisingly quiet for the day sunk into her seat putting both her arms folded on the table while resting her chin on the top she looked up at her sister Payal who was extremeley happy and for Kushi this meant the world to her.

The 26 year old Payal has been through the ugly side of love, she was been cheated, her money and emotions being used, taken as an advantage. Its not easy to when the guy who you love no matter what, while the whole world is against but your love will never change decide to leave you like trash to suffer and break all those promises that he made to you. Those promises of being always there for you, for another 7 lifetime and all this turn to be a big lie. The only thing she havent tried was giving up on her life while she suffer as if she was burning in hell. Kushi still remember seen those tears in her eyes while Kushi tried her best to make the situation at ease. And today Payal learnt to not to give up, she is much independant now and have come out leaving behind the sarrow. She had given up in finding love she was scared to fall in to any trap once again as she knew how horrible the road of heart brake is but destiny had some other plan for her. Her first love as she was a teenager, the one she left behind back in India came back looking for her. Akaash Kurana the one who love Payal very much and the one who was successful in breaking the solid brick Payal built around her. Kushi tilt her head towards Muskaan who replied with a knowing smile as she knew what was running in Kushi's mind and was equally happy for Payal. While listening to the daily dose of Payal and Akash's lovestory Kushi cant help but to think about her Nanhe.

She bit the corner of her lip as she realised what she just did calling NK her's. Her cheeks flushed with pink as blood rush to the surface of her skin, she tried to hide her expressions completley aware of herself but she had no luck in it her smile was playing on her lips as she remember the encounter three months ago.

'Oyeh flashback princess' said Muskaan waving her hand in front of Kushi's face 'Oi Muskaanii I wasnt doing any flashbacks samjhi?' said Kushi pushing Muskaan's hand, while she was doing that Kushi's attention was captured by the face of the watch Muskaan was wearing on her hand 'Oh cow! I have to go now... have to go to library on the way and pick up some books too' said Kushi as she gathered her stuff on her side bag adjusting her clothes she stood up. 'Oh yeh... really to study or Nanhe jiii' said Muskaan shouting loudly 'Oii!' said Kushi in reply as she pulled Muskaan's cap further into her face. Giving a quick hug to Payal then to Muskaan, Kushi got ready to go, she took her jacket on to her hand 'Remember I need to meet that ASR of yours... okay?' said Kushi with a wink.

Chapter Four ---- How I Met You

PART 2

Giving both Payal and Muskaan a goodbye hug Kushi got up to leave, adjusting her bag to the side with the stained jacket on she moved out of the coffee table when she felt a tug on her hand as Payal pulled her back 'Oyeh pagli... arent you going to tell him soon?' asked Payal in a seriouse tone Muskaan also leaned across the table with her hands on her cheek watching both Kushi and Payal with seriouse but cute look acorss her face. Kushi's smile vanished as a hint of dissapoinment across her face, she forced herself on the seat she was on a few minutes ago. She too took one hand upto her cheek while looking at Payal with concern in her eyes. 'I want to but...' began Kushi who was at unease '...but what pagli? forget about all this your kahani style where guy have to say it first and ladi ladi dah' said Payal with irritation. She knew how much her little sister like NK, it shows the way Kushi smile when she sees him, the way she talks about him, anything and everything that have a connection with NK it shows by how a smile appeare on Kushi's face, a cute smile which Payal and Muskaan would love to see forever on her face. 'but what if he doesnt like me the same way' asked Kushi in a small voice, though she hate to think about it like that she cant help to but face the reality in a way. 'How would you know without treying? Common be a girl.. 21st century girl!' said Muskaan who was suprisingly was quiet this whole time 'No no no, I am not a girl!' said Kushi with a corner smile as she found herself very funny 'KUSHI!' both Payal and Muskaan scream her name 'OKAY SORRY!!' said Kushi in reply after putting her hands on her ear. 'Jhallipulli... just think about it yah.. what if a third person come into the story' said Payal hiding her smile of victory seen the sudden shock on Kushi's face, she knew then that she have targetted at the right point 'Ankletwa.. first dont call me that! second if that happen...' Kushi began with a loud voice when it slowly went low as she shudder just thinking about it '...if that happen and if he is happy with her I will let him be with her... I mean his happiness is my happiness...' said Kushi putting her head on the table not knowing what to do 'arey you will remain a jhallipulli forever!' said Payal pushing Kushi's forehead back slowly and then smack her forehead with irritation. 'So my drama queen will find it better to give away your love for him rather than fighting to gain his love for you...' asked Payal while Kushi shrug her shoulders avoiding the question. Kushi was feeling shy she obviously want to fight for him if anything come in her way, she cant imagine a happy life without NK in her life, but yet how can she tell all these to Payal and Muskaan she was shy and was unable to put them into words. 'Dudette, look just go and tell him!' said Muskaan making it as a matter of factly 'it will be all good trust us!' continued Muskaan. 'What did that Anita aunty said about your future in Love?' asked Payal in a teasing tone 'Anita aunty?' asked Muskaan confused about whom are they talking about 'Yah this fortuneteller of love in FB' said Payal laughing out loud 'Stooop it! You know I just play that for fun and dont believe in it' said Kushi irritated of this whole thing. But Kushi knew her friends were right she cant let him go and its always better do it now rather than being late, just thinking about loosing him made Kushi shatter into pieces and she just have to forget about her whole kahani style and go with how life take her. Kushi was in now or never situation and she knew what she should do, she sat up straight as some kind of bavery came over her giving a smile to both Payal and Muskaan she got up from the place 'Bye guys!!' said Kushi before walking off. Both Muskaan and Payal watched as Kushi walk off and smile at each other before giving a high 5 'finally!' said Muskaan shaking her head with disbeliefe 'yah finally!' said Payal agreeing with Muskaan. They both knew Kushi had made up her mind and was happy about it as they knew NK was the perfect guy for Kushi and no one will say no to the couple ever. From what Payal knew, NK was from a buisness background family, was rich enough to look after her sister like a princess, he knows how to make people laugh with his childishness, they both complete each other when they are together therefore for Payal NK was the perfect choice for her little bubbly sister.

Kushi step out of the coffee shop with too much excitment within her, she felt a different person as a whole comparing to who went inside the coffee shop few hours earlier. On her way Kushi met a lamp post she cant control herself but to swing herself on the lamp post as she was high on cloud 9. Choosing 'love songs' on her playlist Kushi put her head phones on and step to the beat of the music. On the empty street it was only Kushi walking by with few cars passing by time to time. Kushi open her arms wide as she let the cold breeze to engulf her, she had no complain, no problem, no tension. She was happy, finally she made her confidence to grow and today she will tell her Nanhe how she feels about him. She obviously had no clue whether the answer will be the same as she want to hear but some where in her heart knew NK also liked her. Didnt know why but she felt as if NK also had feelings for her but just cant tell her. She knew the way he looked at her, came finding her, the gentle talk he have with her, the need of her for everything. No body else had made her feel like NK does when Kushi was around him. The way he make Kushi feel as the piority of his life. The way he would applogize for anything that make Kushi upset even though it might not be his fault. Kushi was in love. Though he is irritating at time and she cant stand him, the way he think of himself as the boss of everyone, the way he dont give importance to others, the way he just think about himself some times irritate Kushi but she might have fallen for this as she realise what a nice guy he is actually in himself. She didnt even knew how she fell for him. It was definitley to do with love at first sight, though Kushi is not a believer of specially love at first sight something really attracted her to NK the first time she saw him. But they were friends first, she have tressued every moment they have spent together and every word that both told each other and till today she can remember everything. Walking down the street and sometimes hopping on the street Kushi went her way to the public library where she and NK decided to meet. A huge smile was plastered across her face. Kushi suddenly came to a stop on her as an innocent but naughty childish thought came over to her seen a group of birds on the pavement. Kushi quickly took the opportunity and ran towards them, the startle birds flew away to the sky the scene was beautifull as the birds flew off and the excited Kushi was in the center of them wishing she could also fly with them. Today everything seems to perfect, suddenly her attention was caught by the mark on the jacket a frown appeare on her face remebering the stranger but then soon it vanish as she didnt want to ruin her mood.

Thinking back into those days where NK and Kushi spent hours together she really missed the fun they had while getting to know each other. The day after her friend's birthday it was NK who remembered Kushi first, sending a friend request through the popular social networking site. But soon they met again and again at couple of occassions, thinking back to it sometimes Kushi still suspect whether it was coincident that they met at several places or was it a plan. As expected Kushi did had the most amazing time in India for that few weeks she spent with NK by her side. Then began their internet chatting till late nights, the more and more Kushi spent with NK the deeper she fell and more she got fond of him. It was like destiny has wrote him in her fate that for some weird reason NK has decided to come to England as well to continue his further studies. It wasnt planned but was planned by destiny that they met again. To the biggest suprise to both of them was that the University he have applied was in the same area, due to this reason their meetings never stopped. And today she was going to tell him that she actually like him more than a friend.

Kushi who was lost in her own thought didnt even knew when she came to her destination. She was standing in front of the public library and cause today is a Sunday there was not many people were hanging around in the area, except for few students of different ages. She clutch on to her side bag tightly, taking a deep breath in she took her step towards the main enterance but she was interupted on her track hearing a very familar voice. She turn towards where the male husky voice came from.

It was NK, who kept his back turn towards Kushi's direaction. He was near a tree keep a hold of the part of the tree trunk, he sounded bit tensed and his body behaviour shows he was in a problem. Kushi had a smile but it slowly start dissappearing as she got closer to him. His voice start becoming clear and she can almost hear his voice. 'No.. its not like that! I am being seriouse' said NK who had a worried tone in his voice 'Why are you listening to other people! dont you trust me??' said NK to the person in the other end of the phone. His voice was almost trembling and Kushi wasnt sure whether he was crying or was just sounding like that. 'I love YOU Sonia! I love you!' NK spit it out like if his life depend on his words.
