WELLDONE

He was waiting for the e-mail eagerly! He wanted to know the effects of what he had done to her yesterday!. She was one unexpected girl that he cannot know what is going through her mind. If he hadn't paid her fees, and she did not decided to e-mail him, they would still in that silent-staring-session without any progress.

Her e-mails were helping him to do something, to read her thought and feelings, toward him.

Finally, he heard the notification of her e-mails. He open it, and started reading it:

---

Dear my mysterious friend.

How are you? I hope that you are fine.

I know, I know , you missed my e-mails since my last e-mail was in the last year :P .

Happy news!!, one wish of my wishes list, came true! :D ..

Arnav ji returned back to his normal state , Kabhi Rakshas-Kabhi Arnav ji.! Yesterday, he came to my room, and asked me to attend the party the he orgnaized. He also told me that he was angry and hurt but it was not my fault as I thought previously. : ) . I was so relieved that the reason behind his state wasn't my fault, and also because he returned back as I knew since for the last few days. I like his soft side that I missed for one day. He changed my bad mood and heavy feelings just by few words, and few gestures. :)

I went to the party, and I was bored till I met Aman ji, he told me that he is ASR aka Arnav ji assistant. He is a very nice guy, he was the only one who noticed that I was standing alone and then he came to chat with me. But the Rakshas did not let us say anything. He came and tasked Aman ji, and took me with him. he told me that Aman ji is a flirty guy!!, he was a hypocrite in the situation, you know the he was flirting with some ladies, and then he came to accuse Aman ji of being a flirty!!..

We danced together on " Deewana Karr aha hi" song.. Though I'm trying my best to forget this confusing dance that my mind is refusing to forget :"(, But I really want to talk about it with someone, and no one is better than you, my mysterious friend :) !

At first , I did not want to dance with because I was angry, but then.. I forgot my anger and complied with him. I cannot write to you how he we danced. Nor I can write hoe I felt when we were dancing on this song, because it's indescribable! ..The song lyrics, his eyes, his motions, his expression, it's all seem very real! I felt that he was the one who wrote the song's lyrics, and he was the one who was singing it, to me! very filmy and imaginary I know.I don't know how and why, but I felt it more than just a dance, much more.! I couldn't forget how his heart was pounding against my palms, nor mine!! I couldn't ignore the chaos that has been created inside me! regardless of how much I tried to.

I think.. it's all because it was my first dance with a man, and that with Rakshas, the last person I would imagine that he will dance like that with me! Anyway, I really don't want to think about it anymore, maybe I'm overreacting and analyzing this dance!

He left me confused, with a muddled mind. While he was acting so normally, chatting, smiling with some guy and ladies :\ .. I was happy when Aman ji came and decided to watch the fireworks with me, at least someone can distract my continues thought about the Rakshas and that dance.. "Arnav ji" came and interrupted us for the second time. He asked me gently to come with him somewhere, and I couldn't do anything except obeying him, it's all because of his innocent, honey eyes that always fool me!. But I did not regret going with him, at all!

While The last hour of the last year was Ermm -- I don't know actually how it was .. the first hour of the New Year was awesome! Because of him!.

He took me to the terrace of the 15 floor lenghth bulding and we watched the fireworks very closely together . It was an awesome, unforgettable sight. I felt that the sparks of the fireworks will fall on me at any moment :D. I just love it, love it, love it! I was so happy!

I hope next year, Arnav ji will be with someone who can make him happy, just as how he made me happy this year. I wished if I could make him happy too, but I couldn't, I felt that he wanted a "new year kiss" from anyone, but for his bad luck, I was the only one with him and I couldn't givehim that.!!! I want my first kiss to be something memorable, with someone I love and he love me, someone I want to share my whole life with him... But I will add another wish for him to my wishes list : I hope that the next year , he will be with a one who will kiss him the new year kiss as he hoped yesterday, and hopefully someone he love, so that it will not be more than a "new year kiss".

It was beautiful moments till he talked about the jealousy nonsense><!. He was thinking that I was jealous from the ladies when he was flirting with them! I don't know why he even could think that I was jealous ><... Ermm well, I will not hide it from you, yes I didn't like when he was with them, I was irritated because of that ... but it's not a jealousy, It couldn't be!

Hay Devi Mayia, I just realized that I has wrote more than 1300 words!. I'm really really a chatterbox :"( . and also, these 1300 word are confusing, reflects my confusing state, Please don't think that I'm a mad after reading this e-mail :O! It's just that Arnav ji is always confusing me with each and every thing of his behavior, and you are the only one with whom I can share all those things with. :)

Now it's your turn, tell me, what happened between you and the girl you love?! Did you tried to show your feelings as I told you?! Did she got it ?! Please please tell me! I'm excited to know !!

Regards,

Khushi.

Yes! she was right, it was very long and detailed e-mails , but he couldn't get anythings clear from it! ..Her e-mail confused him, just as what the dance did for her!. Once she tell that he was hypocrite, and then she say that he is caring. Once she give him a feeling that she understood his hints yesterday, and the other moment she make him feel that all what he did was in vain yesterday!

He was happy the she felt that dance, more than just a dace, much more! Unlike what she had told him yesterday. But her justification of her feelings just pissed him off! Was she blind that she couldn't see his eyes that he was telling her, his feelings , clearly!. Was she dumb to no be able to explain his gestures and his heart pluses that he did not hesitate to make her aware of it!.

He was happy that she did not like him being with other ladies, which mean that she was indeed " Jealous", but he was disappointed that she is still refusing to believe and admit it!. and he was more disappointed that she wished gor him to be with someone to kiss nest year! how can she be jealous and wishing him to kiss someone else the next year!

He was pleased that she understood that he wanted to kiss her yesterday, but he was disappointed that she thought he just want a " Kiss" , not that he wanted to " Kiss her", and only her!

She is looking forward a " true love" but why she cannot she even think for a moment that He love her, or that she love him!

He has a strong feeling that she love him, or at least, have some feelings for him, but she is not even trying to interrupt it logically, she didn't give herself a chance to see them! Was she afraid to admit?! In denial?! or was she have some comprehension problems?! What else he should do to make her feel that he love her!

Khushi was very wired and unreadable, even her e-mails now is not fully helpful to read her mind!. He was annoyed a little bit with her, and he wanted to share his thought about her with someone, and none was better than Khushi.

He clicked replay, and then started writing:

---

Dear Khushi,

Yes, I tried. But it seems that she have a serious problems in understanding and interpreting even the very clear hints.

Regards,

Your mysterious friend.

---

--Send -- , few minutes and he received a new e-mail from her.

---

Dear my mysterious friend,

Hay Devi Mayia, it's a big problem. I know many people who don't get hints, and they are really annoying! ( Sorry for saying that about your beloved :S).

But don't give up.. just try, try and try. Try something much clearer than what you did before!. But my advice to you: don't confess your love by seeing " I love you" , it's better that she first get your love from your actions. And when you are sure about her feeling, or that she got your love. tell her these "magical" words.

I mean, Mohan ji confessed to me, but it didn't do anything expect making me try to avoid him, and don't like being with him.. Only Devi Mayia know if I will ever be able to love him or not. :\

So as I told you, don't gave up and Good luck!

Regards,

Khushi.

He smiled, Only if she know that she was talking about her self,!. She was right, he should show his love in a clearer way! He will try to do something , he will think about this "something".

***

It was the dinner time. Akash and Payal went on a " dinner date" . Mama ji took Mami ji to a "dinner date" too as she felt jealous of Payal. Only Nani, Anjali , Khushi, and Arnav were sitting around the dinning table. Khushi was setting next to him. He was enjoying her nonstop talking with his Di and Nani about many things, her bua ji and the medical camp, her study, some of her childhood memories, and many other things.

He was watching her from the corner of his eyes, as always, enjoying her expressions while she was engrossed in narrating. Her naturally blushed cheek toke over his thought, it looks very soft, velvety, and delicate. He wanted to feel it. touch it. It was an urgent need, and he couldn't ignore it.!

He looked at his Nani and Di, and then at her. He remembered her last e-mail, yes he should do clearer thing to make this tough, weird mind understand.

His SIII fall from his hand under the table, more accurately, he threw it untentionally , under the table in Khushi's side. " Oh" he said innocently, while she looked at him, smiled while saying: " It's Ok .. I will bring it" , before she bent down under the table to pick his phone.

He saw his Di and Nani engrossed in some gossip, he smirked and followed Khushi, under the table.

-

She was trying to reach his phone, when she felt him next to her, his head under the table, close to her's. finally she picked the phone, she turned to him with a smile, and gave it to him. She felt him holding her hand when she wanted to return back to her chair, pulling her down.she farrowed her brows, then her eyes widened when she saw him closing the gap between their face. She felt his lips pressing into her cheek.

-

He came closer and closer to his target, he pressed his eager lips into her delicate, chubby cheek. It was soft, more than how he expected it to be. He pecked her cheek, and pulled back slowly, looking into her eyes, which were almost popped. Then he looked down to her glossy plump lips, he wondered how it would feel! He was sure that it will be much softer than her cheeks. He felt his heart's pluses increased due to the thought of his lips embracing hers'. He was ready to take it, and make his dream true. When their nose's tips touched, he stopped for a moment and looked at her,who still in her previous state, frozen. He remembered what she wrote to him about her dreams and thought about her first kiss. He closed his eyes trying to control himself. He should not be selfish! And not break her dream about her first kiss, because of what he want.

-

His closeness to her was enough to make her numb at anytime, then what would a contact between his lips and her cheek do!. The brief unexpected contact between his lips, and her cheek, the low sound of the peck, was enough to disable her brain, and her muscles of working. It was enough to over activate her heart, and the her circulatory. She was frozen. She saw him came closer, to kiss her lips but she couldn't do anything to stop him!.. She saw him changing his path.

"Thank you" He heard him whispering in her ear, before taking his phone from her hand, and returning back to his chair, leaving her there!

-

He was thankful that he has a control over his reactions, he was thankful that what was going inside him wasn't visible to the others. He was sitting in his chair, started to eat silently, his eyes were waiting for Khushi to move from her static state! . It has been about one minutes since he kissed her but she her head was still under the table!

He was pleased when his Nani asked: " Khushi Betyia?! Where are you ?! what you are doing under the table?! Chotte's phone is already with him!"

He saw her pulling back her head slowly, and sitting on her chair!. Her face red!. She took the spoon but it fall from her hand as she was shivering.

" Khushi ji ?! What is wrong, why your face is red, why you are sweating, and why you are trembling?!" He heard his Di asking her. And then his Nani confirming: "Khushi betyia?! What happened, did you saw something under the table!"

" N..N..No ... it's just .. it hot here" she mumbled.. Anjali and Nani exchanged a confusing look.

" but you are trembling, which is not related to the hot weather!" Arnav asked her teasingly.

She ignored him, then he heard Nani asking him as he was siting next to her: "chotte, Maybe she has a fever. check her temperature!"

He stifled his grin as he nodded. He turned to her and with the back of his hand, he touched her cheek where he just kissed her. she jumped from her chair as he touched her.

" I .. I .. It's not a fever.. I just .. I should go now" She said and ran up the stair to her room. Anajli and Nani looked at her wondering what is wrong, they silently conclude that she wanted to go to the toilet ,, while Arnav was smiling.

***

She was standing in the middle of her room, touching the place where he printed his unexpected peck. She was angry at him and distracted as she used to be most of the time since she moved to the Raizada mansion. She can feel his lips on her cheek till now, she still can her that low sound of it. She can feel those butterflies dancing inside her stomach, and how can she ignore her pounding heart!.

Why did he do that?! Why he is always shocking her with his behavior?! What else will he do to her?! Why I become numb?! Why he always affect me !! Why .. why .. why ?! She couldn't find the answer.

She took a deep breath and clinched her jaw. " What does he think of himself !? he can do whatever he want with me ?! I will show him when I see him next time.. I will show him the real Khushi if he tried to come close to me again" She decided.

She heard a throat clearing, and she turned to see him standing at the door entrance.

" Khushi ?! How do you feel now, when you were down, you were looking very .. ermm.. abnormal " She heard him saying while he walked toward her. His brows were furrowed and she can see the hidden smile.

All what she had planned to when she see him was forgotten!. She couldn't do anything except taking backward steps as he took a forward steps toward her. The back of her knees crashed with the edge of her bed. She was about to fall when he held her by her waist. He helped her to sit on the bed and he sat next to her.

He placed an arm around her shoulder, and he touched her cheek by the other hand, softly.

" It's all because I kissed you .. here !?"

He asked looking into her eyes.

-

She heard him asking her that, as if nothing was wrong in that!. She felt his finger moving down, and resting on her lips. She looked into his innocent eyes he caressed her lips, tenderly.

" Then what will happen when I kiss you, a real kiss.. here?!"

He Lips shaped in a perfect O with a widen eyes. This was the last straw, she cannot take more!.She opened her eyes and pushed his hand away. She stood and took few steps back, putting one hand on her hip, and with other pointing her finger at him. " T..This will not happened .. never, not even in your dream ' Samjhe aap !!" She said nervously.

" But it already happened.." He said as a half smile played in his lips.

She looked at him shocked, as she said: " W..What .. When !!"

" In my dream ! .. Many many times, Ermm.. the last time was the last night, and it was much more than a kiss'" He whispered and winked.

-

She was startled, frozen in her place. She did not know that her face was wearing a crimson color.

" and It will happen it the real life too.. Soon" he added.

"W.. What !!... No ... Y... You cannot force me to do anything I don't want to .. Samjhe aap"

He stood, held her hand which was pointed at him and pulled it close to his heart.

" Who said that I will force you to kiss me ! I will not!...but I will kiss you, and you will kiss me back willingly.. don't worry Khushi.. I will never force you to do something like that .. I want our first kiss, to be something memorable, beautiful.. not a forced kiss.!" he said firmly yet softly, meaning every word of what he just said..
