It was Khushi's friend , Hena's call. "Hey...you gotta come today ok? Its our mehendi ceremony Khu please yaar!" hena cried. Khushi sighed. She didn't like wedding ceremonies at all. She was social but not like a 22 year old girl would be. It was office to home and home to office for her. All day she would stick to laptop and work. "Ok. I'll try." that's all she could say. This was so not the way she imagined her day would be. She knew no matter what she had to go the hena's mehendi ceremony. She was her best friend and the guy she was marrying , was her good friend Ayush. So , she can't be absent right?
Khushi started to look for something to wear. But to her horror , she only found formal dresses in her wardrobe. "Great! Aaj toh main gayi kam se!" she thought. She took out her favourite pair of jeans and her favourite tank top. She didn't apply any make-up as , everyone knew she looks gorgeous effortlessly. "Mom , i am leaving!" she yelled as she descended the stairs. But she saw her mom sitting with a family of a boy. "Not again!" She thought. Her mother was getting crazy to marry her off. "Mom...what the hell is this?" she yelled at her mother. "Khushi...see , ristha aya hain tere liye!" she smiled. "Whatever mom , i don't believe in these things anyways!" she rolled her eyes and drove off to her friend's house.
As she entered the venue , she saw the whole place lighting up with little lights. She gasped. "It all looks so same , yet different!" she sighed. She suddenly felt someone tapping on her shoulder. She turned around. " Yo baby girl , howz you?" ayush smiled. Khushi too smiled and hugged him. "Im great , JIJU!" she laughed. "You know khushi , you gotta let it go now , its been years!" Ayush sighed. They all were school friends and it all started and ended there too. "I did , i don't look back now! Its just , all this decorations reminded me of that day!" she sighed and shoved her hands into her pockets. "You gotta let someone in baby. Or else , you will be alone and i am saying this because i am your friend too , like hena!" he smiled and went away.
"Don't be so hard on yourself or your heart!" she remembered her grandpa saying those last words and leaving her forever. She looked around and regained her cold , and arrogant self and walked further in. She saw some boys standing at a corner and talking photos of the wedding ceremony. She went towards them.
"Wow , who knew my ex-girlfriend could make such a beautiful bride!" hena heard a voice from behind. "Arnav!" she smiled and hugged him. "Oh goodness , i thought you wouldn't come." she pouted her lipd and smiled. "Hey , when you rang up yesterday , i was really taken aback and as far as i know , we really didn't end our relationship on a happy note , did we?" he teased her. "Ya , i know , hey , i am sorry that you had to stay with me in a forced relationship!" she sighed. Arnav pressed his lips together. "Well , ya i mean you were my friend and since you liked me so much , i thought that why not try it out , maybe i will fall for you too!" "But it didn't happen did it?!" she smiled.
"No. It didn't. I guess i never felt like that for you." he ended. Hena saw the look on his face. "How could you be so dumb arnav? You loved khushi from the time you saw her in class 8! You loved her when WE were in a relationship , then why did you not tell her then? Why , after we broke up in class 12 were you quite?" she asked her. Arnav looked at her. He didn't know the answer. "I..i don't know ok?! I..she..she proposed to me on our graduation day and i.." "you insulted her in front of our whole batch arnav! 278 students arnav! 278! That's a huge number!" she shrieked but quitely. "I know right?! I mean , what was i thinking and..." he stopped. He felt that adrenaline rush in his blood again , after 6 years , his heart skipped a beat again and he felt dizzy. "Is she..." "Ya she is here..." hena sighed and pointed towards khushi who was talking to the cameramen.
"Wow...she's..." "she has changed , drastically man!" hena told him. "She has become , an angry young woman and...oh god she is such a workaholic , she's sarcastic about everything and..." she stopped and looked at arnav "and?" he asked her. "and...well! She is so much possesive about her heart that till date , she hasn't let anybody in! No one..." she sighed. "What?" arnav was shell shocked. "You mean..." he saw hena rolling her eyes. "Ya...no one...she'z single from the past 6 years...her mom is trying to get her into a relationship , if not marriage but she won't just budge!" her lips thinned.
"Did i break her heart so badly?" he thought.
"Arnav...i guess i like you!" khushi uttered. "What? Like me?" arnav asked who was confused at the sudden confession. "Ya...i mean...i...its not just 'like' ok...i think...i..i kinda love you!" khushi blushed as she confessed her feelings to the boy she loved from class 8.
"Are you bloody serious?!" he asked. Khushi nodded. "Khushi Kumari Gupta listen up , i don't like you AT ALL ok?! I...I am a jock , your a tomboy and seriously , we might be teased together but that doesn't mean that we have a to be a couple in real life too...and please , im better off without you in my life..." he shrieked but was not familiar with the fact that he just confessed everything in front of the mike and in front of 278 students.
Khushi stood still. She always dreamt she arnav would reject her , but like this , she could hardly imagine. But arnav still continued , even though he knew that , now all 278 pairs of ears and eyes were to them. "Listen to me khushi...i don't like you and please don't piss me off! Not today! I want to spend this day , this last day with my friends and you , better stop all this!" he finished and saw a twinkling little tear escaping her her eyes , as she stood still , motionless and scared to death.
Khushi started walking backwards. "No khushi don't!" ayush. But to his disappointment , she gone from school campus , running from the party which just started 5 minutes ago.
Arnav looked down. For the first time , he thought "what did i do? why did i do? "Khushi!!!" his heart yelled but his lips were sealed. He couldn't say a word.
Arnav came out of his reverie. "Hey , you ok?" hena asked. He nodded. "Hey umm...should i...should i go and talk to her , i mean , i don't know how she will react?" arnav asked her. But hena just pointed towards khushi and told him to go to her. "You guys should sort it out now! Go!" she smiled and sent him to Khushi.
Khushi , who looking at the decorations , was so lost that she didn't understand , when arnav's hand layed on hers. "Memories!" she heard a familiar , but much huskier voice from behind her back. And as she turned around , she face her past again.
"Arnav Singh Raizada!" she gasped. "Hi...khushi..." he sighed. "Go and meet your ex-G! She'll be glad to see you!" she said sarcastically. "what about you? Are you happy to see me?" he asked. "Of course not! Why would i? The heartbreaker is standing here..." she smirked.
"Khushi i love you!" he said and closed his eyes for her to lash out on him. But it never came. When he opened his eyes , he saw her facing away from him and looking at the sky. "I know!" she sighed. "Do you believe me?" he asked , not knowing where this conversation was going. "No!" she said , this time , firmly. "Can you forgive me?" he asked meekly. "No." she said again.
"Hey...umm...you remember i used to right songs in school?!" he asked , trying to light up her mood as he wiped away the lone tear , escaping his eyes.
"Ya...i do! That was one of the things which attracted me towards you!" she confessed , plain and simple. Arnav was shocked. He didn't know that anybody could love his music too. "Umm...what else did you like...?" he asked. "Your smile , your hazel eyes , you dimple , i loved everything about you arnav , i loved you!" she said firmly again. "Is it in the past tense now?" he asked. "Ya i guess!" she answered as she played with her watch. Arnav shoved his hands in his pockets. "Well...i wrote this piece for you khushi and i hope you will help me complete this song!" he handed over the piece of paper to her and went away as his heart was breaking like hell.
Khushi looked at his retreating back. She was about to throw away the paper when , she had a change of heart and decided not to. She opened up the folded paper and read :
Whenever I close my eyes, I picture you there
Im looking out at the crowd, youre everywhere
