Kabhi kabhi aisa hota hai
jaage jaage koi sota hai
bin chaahe dil khota hai
kahin aisa na ho jaye
Tapping
her fingers on the steering, she sings the song along with the radio.
It's one of her favorite songs of the last year and that's why, she
remembered it word by word. Stopping at a signal, she looked into the rearview
to check herself. The sunglasses were giving a really classy look on
her face. She pulled out the glasses to check her Kajal and put that
back. She was really not a decked up kind of person. She believes to
live with simplicity and that's why on her face, other than lip-gloss
and Kajal, there was not a single particle of make-up. The signal
turned green and she hit the race to move towards her destined place.
She was going to meet another boy for marriage proposal. Probably, if
she can count right, this was the 13th boy, she was going to meet and
all thanks to her parents. When sometimes, she feels irritated, other
times, she finds it fun too. She got to meet different kind of guys.
Some too much geek, some too cool...Some to professional, and some too
cheesy...Some totally boring and some sugar coated romantic. And now,
it seems like, she is off to disclose a new adventure today.
kab armaan machlenge
kisko hai yeh pata
kab mausam badlenge
kisko hai yehpata
pyaar ho jata hai kaise
jaane na jaane na jaane na
jaane na dil tera
"Have
you ever been in love?" Riddhima asked slowly yet excitedly, tapping
her fingernails on that red table of the cafe. Armaan looked at her
amused. "I think, I am in love" He confessed for the first time,
surprising himself that the thing he even till now hadn't confessed to
himself or to the girl, he supposed he love and now, out of the blue,
he is accepting that in front of a stranger girl, he met for the first
time. "There is nothing as such I THINK in love Armaan...Either its
LOVE, or its NOT...There is no place of uncertainty or doubt in love"
She said in a strong voice with a bright dreamy smile. "Are you in
love?" Her words made Armaan doubt that. "No, not yet...but I just
believe that whenever I will fall in love, it will be something so
strong, something so sudden...as if like a tornado" She chuckled at her
own statement making Armaan smile too. "Are you sure, you are not in
love cause on one side you are saying you are not and on the other
side, you know so much about its depth" Armaan said in a teasing voice,
raising his brows that made her smile. "That's because I witnessed the
beautiful love story of my parents and see it growing day by
day...they make an ideal couple...Dad always tells me how beautiful and
strong this feeling is...how badly it may hit you and how sometimes
you can feel weak and at times strong too...Just cause of its power"
She said truthfully. Armaan just can't seem to leave with a choice
other than admiring this frank and bubbly girl. "I just wish you get
that dream story of your own too" He wished from a clean heart. "Thank
you" Riddhima replied with a pleasant smile" "and also best of luck to
you too for your coming life with your girl" She said teasing him,
making him go all red. "Thank you to you too" He said after a while,
looking down at the table in between them, playing with his car keys.
"Oh now see...in all this discussion, our coffee is now cold...Waiter"
Riddhima quickly called the waiter and asked him to give them fresh hot
coffee. That moment of distraction brought by Riddhima really made
Armaan comfortable once again.
Nazar se nazar miley
Nazar se nazar miley
To dekhenge aankhein sapna
Jo yun koi saath chalein
To lagne lagega apna
They
both were on a proposal meeting arranged by their parents who wanted
to see them married. Too bad, there wishes willn't be fulfilled now
since Armaan is already in love and Riddhima want to go for a love
marriage just like her own parents. Armaan made it clear to Riddhima
that he loves someone else and can't imagine his life without her and
Riddhima was quite OK with his response. "Hmm...we can't be what our
parents suppose us to be but can we become friends...you are an amazing
girl Riddhima" Armaan said, hoping a yes as they came out from the
cafe and moved towards their cars. "For sure Armaan...I love making new
friends and mind you...I am not like those who forget there friends
with time...as my friends state it...Yaroon ki Yaar
type hoon main" that mischievous smile didn't leave her face and now,
out in sun-light, Armaan saw and noticed her features. She was a really
pretty and simple kind of girl. He would really have said a yes for
her to his parents, only if, just only if Radhika wasn't a part of his
life before Riddhima. "You have my number right" Riddhima asked before
she was about to leave. Armaan just nods in reply. "It was really nice
meeting you Armaan" She put forward her hand and Armaan shakes it with
his. "Same here". Bidding bye, she wore her sunglasses while going
towards the parking and after getting into the car, zoomed off. Armaan
too get into his black BMW to get back home and face his parents.
Baat jo badhegi baat baat mein
Khwaab hi...
khwaab hoge har raat mein
Hoga jab pyaar tujhe
Hoga na qaraar tujhe
Tu yeh soch le..
It
was the third day after their meeting. Armaan was getting too bored
while sitting in his bed, wearing his night dress and playing games on
his iPhone. "Darn" Throwing the mobile on the bed, he lay down. Radhika
was away on her last university trip and till now, he couldn't confess
to her. His friends used to call him a fool for falling for a girl,
who never showed interest in him. But how could he tell them, that
that's the main reason which provoke him and attracted him to her. He
sighs. But there is one person who hasn't judged his love. A person he
met two days back and become friend with. And right now, it was time to
get on with that friendship. Holding his mobile, he turned to lay on
his stomach and after searching out her name, called her.
On
the other hand Riddhima was busy while working on her final project
which she has to submit in a month time. The pencil was stuck into her
mouth as she was making some notes and later on, holding her laptop,
was making some graphics on power-point when her phone buzzed. Without
looking at the name, she picked up the phone.
"Hey"
holding the phone between her cheek and shoulder, she once again
started working on her laptop. "Hmm...Hi...Armaan here...remember"
Armaan introduced himself with a hesitant tone. A smile crept up
Riddhima's face hearing his statement. "Of course I do... Told you I am
a good friend" She grinned while Armaan chuckled on the other side. "I
get it now... So how's life going on?" He questioned laying down
fully, keeping the iPhone on the bed, and stuck his ear to it, relaxing
his hands. "It's getting tougher... Ghar ka mahol Thora garam
hai... My parents still angry with my rejection for you and above that
this project of mine taking a toll on me" She took a deep breath,
being exasperated from the current situation. "Yeah, my parents too...
They are hardly talking to me" Armaan expressed his state too. "You
deserve that... I mean, who dare to reject such a good looking and
intelligent girl like me" She teased him as he laughed. "I know... You
are superb in your way...and trust me...If I wasn't in love before
meeting you... I would have definitely gone for you" Armaan said
honestly that made Riddhima quiet for a moment. "Then I guess, it's
your loss..." She was back in chirpy tone and Armaan agreed teasingly.
"For sure" Riddhima giggled on the other side. "Ok leaves this humor
aside...tell me about your love story... I need to relax for a bit" She
pushed away her laptop and notes, and stretching her legs in the
front, lay back on the headrest while playing with her hairs. "And you
think my LOVEE
STORY is good enough to entertain you" He joked. "I don't know... You
tell me na...Is it like those Mills and Bones kind of story?" She
wondered. "Ha-ha... You think that that kind of romance exists in
reality? Those slow moments when your eyes met the girl's eyes and her
blush seeing your intent gaze on her... I would have got a slap if it
had been that kind of romance with me" Riddhima laughed at his
statement. "I do think that kind of romance do exist somewhere...
Anyways, what's your story?" She asked once again and Armaan sighed on
the other side, and hold his phone in his hand now, sit down and
started playing with his nails. "My love story is not actually a love
story till now...as the girl I love still don't have a hint about it"
He explained with a sad voice. "Oh really...Then when are you planning
to tell her?" She was surprised by his answer. "Around this weekend or
next...Actually she is off to her university trip for now...and will
get back on Saturday...So may be this sunday
or next...whenever I am gonna meet her" Armaan told his plans.
"Hmm...I wish you all the best Armaan...Hope she will said yes to
you...By the way, whats her name?" She asked out of curiosity.
"Radhika...My father's friend daughter." Armaan told her. "Sweet
name..." Riddhima commented. "Thank you" Armaan replied. "Ok Armaan,
Nice talking to you but now I have to get back to my project...I really
need to finish first draft today" She said sitting up, stretching her
back, trying to relax it. "Ok...In between on which subject you have to
make a project?" He inquired. "Management...A Study On Effectiveness
Of Training Programme"
Riddhima explained him. "Oops...that's perfect...If you want any help
than you can ask me...I too have done my MBA in management" Armaan
offered a hand and Riddhima was more than glad to take it. Its better
to have two minds than one and they decided to met next day outside
the same cafe, they met before.
And
then Armaan started meeting her on daily basis. They used to share
ideas and discuss the project over few cups of coffee. He was quiet
impressed with Riddhima's first draft, but still, there was a long way
to go. Whenever they get tired, Armaan used to took her to a nearby
park where they would stroll for sometime and then sitting on a bench,
in between the calmness of nature, discuss there daily lifes.
Armaan told Riddhima all about Radhika. How she is a student of his
rival college and he first saw her in the Inner-College Games function a
few months back, and was attracted to her. How his friends dared him
to go and ask her for a coffee and she plainly rejected that without a
second thought. They later on became friends and now, he just hopes
that she said yes to him. "I will pray that she say yes..." Riddhima
prayed from a clear heart that left him smiling.
It
was a rainy day. Riddhima just get back from her university at 5pm,
totally drenched. Her hairs were sticky and mud stains were prominent
on her white trouser. "Ramdin kaka...Please
bring a hot cup of coffee in my room please" She asked politely while
moving towards her room. But she just entered, when her phone buzzed.
She took it out from her bag irritatingly because she badly wanted a
warm shower before indulging herself in other things, but Armaan name
flashed, and she quickly picked it up with an excited face. "Hello,
Armaan...What she said?" She remembered Armaan telling her earlier in
the morning through a message that he is gonna propose Radhika today
and as she had few back to back classes, all she could do was to send a
text message back, wishing him all luck during the lecture. But right
now, the silence on the other side of the phone, really scared her.
"Armaan..." She called his name once again and in reply, she heard a
little cry. "Armaan...What happened?" She asked once again. "No..." His
whisper came back. "She said No" He felt a lump in his throat saying
that as tears were continuously running down his face. "OK...where are
you now...I am coming" Riddhima asked quickly, throwing her bag on the
bed and went towards her wardrobe to grab warm clothes. "At my
apartment" Armaan told her. "Stay there...I am coming in 20 minutes"
Riddhima replied and cutting the call, quickly changed herself into
fresh clothes and holding her mobile move out. "Bibi ji...Coffee" Ramdin said who was just about to run into her. Riddhima grabbed the cup quickly. "Kaka...tell Mom and Dad when they return that I am at my friend's place...will be back in sometime ok" Kaka nod and with the cup, Riddhima went out where her driver was waiting for her.
On
the other hand, Armaan was devastated by the rejection of Radhika. He
was in his apartment which he use whenever his parents are out of town
or country as that huge mansion make him feel really lonely without
them. Armaan had showed Riddhima his apartment too when they needed to
download some files on her laptop that he couldn't do in the cafe.
He
was shattered. He was breaking down with each passing second. The
fantasy that he has created over the months, a fantasy that has became
his life line was no longer there. What he is supposed to do now. How
he is supposed to survive now. Tears were continuously running down
his cheeks. He sniffed with muffed cries which were escaped from his
thin lips.
Right
then the door bell ring. He got up from the floor perfectly knowing
who it must be. Right now, he doesn't need anyone who gives him an
I-TOLD-YOU-SO look. He wanted someone who will hear him out and let him
explain his feelings and Riddhima, is just that person. He cleared his
face, feeling conscious of himself and opened up the door just to
hear. "Pumpara..."
Riddhima raised up her hand showing a shopping bag, which had two
packs of Maggie inside and a smile placed on her lips. "I hope your
kitchen is in a running position as I am really hungry" She said
getting in after pushing him aside. Armaan looked at her with hollow
eyes. She got into the kitchen and bend down to take out an old sauce
pan and after cleaning it properly, filled it will water. Turning on
the electric stove, she put the pan on it "What are you doing?" Armaan
asked with a confused face as she put Maggie into the boiling water
now. "Armaan, Have you ever discussed your heart break over a bowl of
maggie?" She asked with a wondering look, trying to keep her face as
serious as possible, but that small smile at the corner of her lips,
was hard to ignore. Armaan glared at her. It felt like she was making
fun of him and he shook his head in anger. "No...I am not" She said
even before he could say anything. But for her, he didn't need to say
anything. His crystal clear face was expressing his emotions and
feelings perfectly. Armaan looked back at her with a questioning look
as she started. "I am not making fun of you or your feelings...its just
that I am famished right now" She said patting her belly. Her sincere
eyes convey there message and he gave a small nod of understanding.
"You go out and sit...I will be there in a minute with this" She turned
around to check on her Maggie while Armaan came out and sit on sofa.
His
body leaned forward as his index finger traced his trembling thin
lips. Tears started to flow out once again as he remembered how Radhika
broke his heart in pieces.
"Are
you out of your mind Armaan...Damn...I never knew you feel this way
about me" Radhika shouted at him as he expressed his love. He was
sitting on his knees. The bouquet of roses was still placed in his
hands which he was just stretching out to her, a few minute back. "You
know, I never had...any kind of feelings for you,,,,,,,,Especially not
like this one's" She barked mentioning towards the roses and card which
was placed on the bench. "I wish i would never had become friends
with you...i wish i would never had said yes to meet you out here when
you called me today...I so wish" She stomped her foot on the grass of
the park, she was standing in. "But Radhika..." Armaan started to say
something after gulping down the lump that formed in his throat. "No
Buts Armaan...I became friend with you just because you are my father's
friend son...there was never something more than that...I love someone
else and I better don't want to see you around me ever" Radhika said
and left, leaving him in a pool of tears.
Only he knew how he made it to this apartment without any accident as the tears were refusing to stop for a second.
Riddhima
came out holding the two bowls in her hands and sit beside him on the
sofa. The moment beside him caught his attention as he turned around
and saw her eating Maggie while moaning aloud. A few minutes later,
she started making more funny noises while eating Maggie. Armaan was
getting irritated now. "Riddhima" He chided. "Stop that" Riddhima
turned to him with a smirk and propped the fork in the air, rolling the
noodles over it. "Armaan..." She wanted to tease him some more but
seeing the glare, he passed her way, she stopped. "Ok...sorry
sorry...tell me what happened?" Riddhima asked with a genuine tone now.
Armaan looked at her face to see her all ears and sigh, leaning back,
covering his face with his hand. "She is in love with someone else"
Armaan explained in minimum amount of words, that could tell her his
condition. "OHH"
escaped Riddhima's mouth as she turned her body and now was looking at
him straightly. His facial expressions were telling her how worn out
he really was. She put the bowl down on the side table and get closer
to him.
A
hand came over his shoulder that make him look up into her caring
eyes. "Armaan" She licked her dried lips before saying anything. "Look,
i am not going to say all that comforting words you generally expect
someone say to you nor i am going to look at you with pity in my
eyes...Its reality Armaan, Sometimes it does happen...Its not necessary
that the person you love, too love you back...But just because of the
reason that you didnt get the love you wished for, I really dont want
you to push away the love that you are having from such a long time,
like your parents, your friends...I also know its early on this stage
that i am saying all this Armaan, just think...what will you get after
making everyone know that you get heart-broken...What will be the use
when the person you love right now, willn't be feeling the pain, you
are suffering from" She looked up at him as he was looking at her
intently, so she continued. "All you will get is, Everything will be
alright, be brave kind of line and pitiful glances...Do you want to get
all of them?" Riddhima questioned but in reply, Armaan just keep on
looking at her as if she is an alien. This mature side of her, he has
scene before on there very first meeting, but later on, her bubbly,
full of life avatar, took over that image. But right now, all Armaan
could find was a grown up, mature girl inside her, who cares, loves,
respects and like to enjoy her life. "Tell me na? Do you want to get
all of it??" She shook his shoulder when he didn't give a reply and
then, he just nodded. "So let me tell you one thing...Just cry over it
tonight...bring out all the pain, you are feeling right now...but
tomorrow morning, make that Armaan get alive once again who is full of
dreams, ambitions. Who loves to love and spread happiness" She smiled
brightly and don't know why, but Armaan didn't feel like crying
anymore. As if, her words took over his pain. They were the true
medication for his wounds.
kab armaan machlenge
kisko hai yeh pata
kab mausam badlenge
kisko hai yehpata
pyaar ho jata hai kaise
jaane na jaane na jaane na
jaane na dil tera
Riddhima
carelessly got hold of her bowl once again and started eating her
noddles. "Have you ever discussed your heart break over a bowl of
maggie?" It was Armaan time to ask her as he felt something fishy.
"Yes, Twice" She replied carelessly and then a smile popped up on her
lips, as if remembering a very funny incident and then, she started
telling him all about it, lost in her own world. "I still
remember...First time when I had the crush on our college's football
coach...Damn, he was so handsome and most of the girls of our college
had eyes on him...But a few months later, we saw that he brought his
wife into the college along with his son who was seeking for
admission..." She chuckled remembering her foolishness. "I so cried
that night that i almost ended two tissue boxes...Muskaan, my best
friend...she made Maggie for me that night, perfectly knowing it is my
weakness and made me realize, how foolish i was" She ended with an
innocent smiled while chewing on. "By any chance, did she just said
these same lines...You just tell me?" Armaan questioned only to receive
a narrow eye look on himself. Her lips twitched as she observed his
face and then a grin get placed on it. "You are reading my mind
now...How did you get that?" And that what brought a giggle from Armaan
as he pushed back his head, truly not knowing how he get so lucky to
have a friend like her. "Oh hello...It was just not word to word like
what she said...I improvised this whole dialogue, giving it Riddhima's
touch" And he laughed more and she joined him too. "You are seriously
something Riddhima" Armaan laughed and laughed till he couldn't laugh
anymore. "Glad you admit that...as there is only one SOMETHING KIND OF
Riddhima" And Armaan agreed. Riddhima's
bowl was empty by now so she took hold of the other one, that she had
actually brought for Armaan. Armaan eyed it and getting closer to her,
took hold of it. "That's mine" He took hold of the spoon from her hand
and started eating. "Hey...how can you take it?" Riddhima complained as
Armaan rolled the noodles on her spoon and took a big bite. "That's
cause I have a friend who like to share break-ups over a bowl of
Maggie" He said as she just smiled and leaned back to see him eating.
"That's your first heart break Armaan" Riddhima asked next that made
Armaan hand stopped for a bit before he nods. Riddhima pat his back
lightly before saying. "Don't worry...1st heart-break is always
worse...You will be ok after 2nd one" and that made Armaan choke on his
food as he daggers looked at her. "What?" He shouted. "You want me to
go through a 2nd heart break..." Riddhima laughed at his facial
expressions "You said we are friends...I discuss my heart-breaks over a
bowl of Maggie and so you too wanna do that...but i also had two
heart-breaks...so i will really like you to be equal to me out there
too" She said, pulling the bowl and took a spoon full of noodles.
Armaan laughed out loud at her Foolish Theory and took out the other
spoon from her earlier empty bowl. They started eating from a same bowl
when Armaan said. "Ok, tell me about your 2nd heart-break" and then
Riddhima started telling him about her crush over her hawt professor who was already twice married.
Nazar se nazar miley
Nazar se nazar miley
To dekhenge aankhein sapna
Jo yun koi saath chalein
To lagne lagega apna
Few
days passed away. Riddhima was constantly a support for Armaan.
Whenever he would feel low, She was there to cheer him up and bring him
back to life. He decided to do his PHD in management further to get a
better grip of management and after applying for his admission in his
old university, he started on with his PHD program.
"Armaan...Don't
you play any kind of sports?" Riddhima one day asked generally while
picking out chips from the bag. The books were scattered around them in
his apartment as in just two days Riddhima had to submit her final
project. "Yeah i do play Volley Ball for my university...actually next
week we are having a match against another university" Armaan said
laying on the sofa as they took a break from the studies. "Oh
really...Can I come over to see it?" Riddhima asked with a very chirpy
voice. "Yeah sure..." Armaan replied closing his eyes. He was in need
to have a no silence moment. Riddhima understand that and decided to
work on the presentation when her phone buzzed. She picked it up to see
her friends message, asking her if she will like to join them in club
tonight. It was long since Riddhima went out with her friends somewhere
so she quickly said yes and after pressurizing Armaan a little, made
him agree too to go out with her.
And
the club was surly a great idea as the last streak of disappointment,
that Armaan had was finally disappeared. He enjoyed his time with
Riddhima and his friends consist of Muskaan, Rahul, Amit,
Sapna and Atul. The danced, drink a little and went out to eat in
pizza hut. Atul dropped everyone in his jeep. The jeep stopped infront
of Riddhima's home when Amit
turned and got attention of both, Riddhima and Armaan. "Armaan, Are you
free this Saturday. We are planning a short trip to Goa for three days
and we would really like if you could join us" All eyes turned to
Armaan who was scratching his temple. "Guys, I would really like to
come but I have a volleyball match this Thursday and If we would
qualify then we have a final to play on next Tuesday..." Armaan
explained about his game. "Hmmm..." Amit
thought for a moment and came up with a plan. "How about we leave at
Thursday night and we can come back on Sunday evening so Armaan can
relax on Monday and then can participate in final match" That sound
logical and all nodded in approval. "What say Armaan?" Now Riddhima
asked him with a twinkle in her eyes. "Thats a great idea...but my practice?" Another issue got raised by him and all sigh. "Armaan, In goa
we can play beach volley ball yaar...thats not a problem ok" Atul
suggested and Armaan nodded. Its long he went out of town, and in this
current situation, he was surly in need to have a break.
"Xaviers...Xaviers" Riddhima was cheering at top of her lungs for Armaan's
team in rhythm with his university mates. The end was around and
Armaan had to serve the ball. Xavier needs the last point to win though
they were already leading with 24-19 points but this last point would
be the stamp on there success. Armaan pushed the ball in the air. The
crowd was cheering furiously but there hearts were beating as fast as
they could. Armaan jumped up and gave a solid hit, pushing the ball on
the other side of the net. The rivals did caught a hold of ball but
just before he was about to land on the ground. The slight push given
by him was not enough to send it back to the other side. Another guy
tried to get closer but the ball was far out of his reach and hit the
ground. Referee show the flag on Xavier side, making them earn the last
point as the whole Xavier crowd was cheering and hooting for there
winning team. Armaan mates hugged him wishing him congrats. His eyes
moved up to look at Riddhima who was jumping on the huge stairs, where
she was sitting before and on seeing him looking at herself, she gave a
thumbs up sign as a bright smile lit up her face. Armaan removed his
wining shirt in happiness. Riddhima run down into the ground towards
him with open arms. Armaan expected a hug and prepared himself but when
she actually landed into his arms, he stumbled two steps back before
getting himself stable. "Awww
Armaan...Congrats...You were fabulous" She squealed into his ear
before breaking the hug, giving him a wide smile. "Thank you" He humbly
replied with a sweet smile as she get back. He took hold of the shirt,
he removed and made her wear as a thank you for all the support, she
provided in last few weeks.
Aayega woh paas jo door hai
Maan ja..
Ke hona yeh zuroor hai
Yeh dil to deewana hai
Kab ka havana hai
Tu yeh soch le..
Leaning
back comfortably on his sand chair, wearing nothing but just his
shorts, he looked up at his front to admire the vast sea, displayed. He
took a deep breath to inhale that beautiful sea smell and a smile got
on his lips.Its been 1st day of them in Goa. He loves sea more than
mountains. He had even went out with his friends for scoobadiving
and it was one hell of an experience. Watching the beautiful inner
life of sea, moving along with those colorful fishes. But. OH MY
GOD!!!! What a sight he got to see. His jaw dropped seeing the ethereal
dusky beauty coming out from the water. And what draw his attention
more was that, she was Riddhima. His mind boggles looking at her
wearing just her one piece swimwear that was hugging her body like a
second skin. "God!! She is hot" He heard someone say beside him and an
instant anger rise up in his body when he looked at two guys, wearing
shorts, drinking coconut water were standing beside him and a lusty
look were throwing on Riddhima's
way. One part of his body want to bash up those boys, telling them
exactly what's hot in here and other part, want to run away and wrapped
her in the security of his arms, to keep her protected. A battle was
still running inside his body when Muskaan, Sapna and Riddhima get on
that mat, they had placed near sea and wrapped there waists with
clothes. He turned to look at those guys who had left too. He leaned
back with a confused look, trying to understand as why he felt so
agitated on knowing that someone eyes Riddhima. He looked at her
smiling self who was enjoying the sun while leaning back on her hands.
Her hairs were wet from her sea diving and was in a chat with Muskaan
and Sapna. Armaan was feeling restless. He needed a way to distract
himself so he got up and went towards the sea. Getting into a good
level, he took a deep breath, filling his lungs with enough air and
dived in.
Riddhima's
eyes didn't miss the drooling look on Armaan face, when she came out
after her dive. But suddenly he looked away and all she could feel on
his face was anger and desperation. She was confused and choose to
ignore him while getting herself busy in a chat with Muskaan and Sapna
but she couldn't miss him passing by her and get into the sea. Her eyes
lingered over the sea as he dived in and was beating furiously, when
she didnt see him out after a few seconds. But he came up and she took a
sigh of relief, holding her heart before looking back at him. He was
marching out as if he owns the sea. As if, he is some sea king,
marching in his estate. The droplets of water were running on his body
continuously as she felt her mouth go dry, seeing his perfect abs,
proudly showing there existence over his slightly tanned skin. He was
gorgeous with that little boyish beard and had a body to drool on. "He
is smookingly hot yaar" Muskaan commented that make me get out from his trance and look daggers at her. "Muskaan, don't you have Rahul?"
She asked seething with anger but tried to keep her voice cool. "I
do...but you can't just stop appreciate a Mango in summers when you do
get apple everyday, in every month...now can you" She said, still
looking in Armaan's
direction. Sapna cracked up with Muskaan's resemblance of Armaan with
Mango...Seriously, a man matching with a fruit. Riddhima too joined
Sapna in her laughter as Muskaan realized what she said and get
embarrassed. Her cheeks were pink that made the, laugh more. Muskaan is
a crack piece but sometimes, she is so mature. Riddhima loves her
friends craziness. "Riddhima...You and Armaan are being together from a
few weeks now...Have you ever felt a pull towards him?" Riddhima's laughter died with Muskaan's question who was still looking at Armaan's
way. "What do you mean by that Muskaan?" She asked, raising her brow.
Muskaan turned to look at her and shrugged her shoulders. "I mean...He
is sweet, good natured, handsome, attractive and not to mention...very hot...Have you ever thought about the scenerio
as what if he hadn't been in love with that girl? What if, you both
had met the way you did just without him being in love already, as he
stated that. Would you had said yes to him?" She asked and Sapna's
cunning eyes were too set on Riddhima's
to catch her reaction but she was dumb. Her eyes were fixed on Armaan.
Its not like she hadn't thought about it, she did, many times. It was
hard to resist him when he used to sit so close to her during studies,
trying to get her attention on a main point. But she knew, that him
being in love, the thoughts will lead her nowhere. She was still in
thoughts where Sapna jerked her shoulder and she startled, looked
around as she was at lost of an answer. Sapna and Muskaan noted her
averted gaze and sigh. There friend needed a push and they were there
to do that. "You know something Riddhima? Sapna started getting her
attention. "You both with make a really sweet yet a hot pair" A
side-looped smile graced her soft pink lips that turn into a grin later
on as her friends grinned back at her..
The
trip to Goa was a memorable one. Riddhima felt her breath got caught
in her lungs whenever she watched Armaan and the guys playing beach
volleyball while she and girls get settled on the sand, to watch them.
Whenever his dusky skin gets that bright sand all over it, she couldn't
stop herself to drool over his body. He was charismatic and he was so
unaware of it. She saw many girls eying
his broad chest with perfect abs, his looks, that would instantly send
her on a high temperature. She was getting possessive of him. And same
was going on with Armaan too. Seeing someone looking at her with
lust-filled eyes, would made him boggles. He actually beat a guy in the
club, who was constantly trying to dance close to her, when the went
out one night. His nerves were on high alert. He was getting too
precise to notice her beautiful giggle, her mesmerizing smile that make
you smile too, her childish kind of frown when she don't get something
like her way, and her narrow eyes, who says more question than her
raise brows or her lips. He was liking this girl, way more than he
actually know.
kab armaan machlenge
kisko hai yeh pata
kab mausam badlenge
kisko hai yehpata
pyaar ho jata hai kaise
jaane na jaane na jaane na
jaane na dil tera
Riddhima
was settled with her friends on the stairs of her university's
corridor as they were seeing the picture of Goa in her laptop. Armaan's final was in the afternoon and this whole group was going to cheer him up. The slideshow
was on when this whole group along with Armaan went to that banana
boat ride and fell in the water, some group photos on the beach, in
club, in the lounge of there hotel, terrace of there rooms. They all
were watching and remembering the fun they had. One picture of Armaan
and Riddhima get displayed on the screen where Riddhima was wearing a
beach hat in a tilted position. A smirk was there on her face as she
was doing this pose and Armaan was laughing at her cuteness. "See, I
told you, You guys make a good couple" Sapna said with happiness. "You
both look so cute together" Muskaan chimed in. "Really?" Riddhima asked
with a hopeful yet happy look on getting this compliment. "Really buddhu...What say Amit?" Muskaan asked Amit who agreed and Sachit and Rahul
too nodded. Riddhima was happy just by hearing this comment of her
friends, unaware of the pair of eyes, who get a look of the picture and
was seething with anger.
The
match started as Riddhima with her friends get settled on the huge
stairs of the ground, once again. She crossed her fingers and was
constantly praying for Armaan's success. The other team was surly tough. Just in the start they scored 6 points while Xavier's
were on Nil. Xavier crowd was feeling down. No one was cheering
anymore when One of Armaan mates get a point and the crowd get wild and
then, there was so back off. Xaviers cope up with the loss pretty
quickly and were leading from 11 to 8. Riddhima's eyes lit up everytime Armaan made a score and her friends teased her mercilessly on her excitement. Finally after a 45 minutes match, Armaan's
university won the finale, earning them a huge trophy. Riddhima
cheered on top of her lungs as Armaan and his friends get on the stage
to receive there trophy. When crowd was allowed in, Riddhima quickly
rushed in, leaving her friends behind and as if he was waiting for her,
he caught her from her waist as she landed in her arms and pulled her
up in a happy twirl. Her friends smiled brightly, seeing there obvious
chemistry. "You won...You won" Riddhima shouted as he put her back on
the ground. "Yep" He laughed at her but then his eyes landed on her
dress, making him look back at her face with a raise brow. She was
wearing the his same sports shirt, he put on her a few days back.
Riddhima observed his gaze and shrugged her shoulders in reply. "I
thought this is the best sports wear that i have..." Riddhima mumbled
making Armaan smile as he shook his head before looking back at her
cute face. This girl is crazy and he is so liking and loving her
craziness.
"Armaan..."
Riddhima whined on the phone. "What happened?" He asked rubbing his
wet hairs with a towel as he just came out after taking a bath. "I need
your help..." She bit her lowered lip when he just made a sound as if
asking her to go on. "Will you be my partner for prom tonight?" She
said only to jear
Armaan laugh. "Why what happened? Your partner dumped you?" He teased
her. "No" came straight out of her mouth. "He didnt dump me...he just
get into a small accident and get his knee injured...and others are not
interested to go out with me as I am a dare devil type na...they are
just painly
scared" She said in a fake angry tone while remembering how 5 of her
classmates has asked her and she turned them down.. "Hmmm" Armaan
jumped on to his bed, rubbing his chin with a deep thought. He cant
believe at all that no one has asked Riddhima. From Atul, Amit and Rahul,
he got to know that she is the one of the most famous girl in college.
Bit then, he was more than glad to have an opportunity to go out her,
as her man. Oh mean partner. "Is it taking you so much time to answer?"
She asked in an irritated tone that snapped him out from his thoughts.
"NO NO...absolutely no" Armaan said quickly, trying to cover up his
aloofness. "What? No? You dont wanna come with me?" Her hart sink with
his reply as thoughts gripped her mind. She just wanted to take a hint
if he was interested in her so she could seriously think about
themselves as living in a hypothetical bubble was not her style and definately, after what happened to Armaan before, She wasnt ready to take a risk with her heart. "Riddhima, you getting me wrong..."Armaan tried to explain. "Ofcourse i will love to go out with you" He said bitting his lips as the words slipped out from his mouth. Riddhima's
eyes lit up with his response and a smirk got place when she thought
about the LOVE TOO part. "I mean, i am a good friend and as a friend, i
should help you out...right?" Armaan said but his voice was more like
he was assuring herself than her and she knew it. "Ok good friend" She
mimicked her words, grinning inside. Her body was exploding with
happiness. She wanted to jump around and shout in joy. "I guess, i will
be picking you up tomorrow then?" Armaan asked scratching his temple. A
rush of excitement run in his body. "Yeah...be here at 7..." She said
hesitantly before whispering "I will be waiting" softly. Armaan felt
himself melted inside just with the sheer beauty of her voice. Saying
yes, he end the call while rushing his hands through his hairs. A smile
lit up on his face just with the thought that she is counting on him.
Somehow, he felt that whatever excitement, anxiousness, he is feeling
for Riddhima is not what he felt for Radhika. This time this feeling is
more deep,more powerful and more strong and then he wondered that
whatever he felt for Radhika was even love? He paced into his room when
another thought strike his mind. "Does that mean whatever he is
feeling for Riddhima is love?" He questioned himself but the feelings
were too eaw, too new to have an answer instantly. "I should take things as they come" He found a solution.
Nazar se nazar miley
Nazar se nazar miley
To dekhenge aankhein sapna
Jo yun koi saath chalein
To lagne lagega apna
Armaan
rushed to the other side of his car, after passing the key to the
valet, to help her get down infront of the university campus. He put
forward his hands and felt his mouth go dry when she looked up at him
with her sparkling kohl eyes. A beautiful smile was gracing her lips
when she put forward her sleek hand in his manly one and get out. Both
felt a spark in there touch and Riddhima wrapped her hans
around his arm, as they went towards the main door. Inside the
atmosphere was quite fun. The main hall of her university was fully
packed with students who were mostly wearing black and red, a somewhere
a hint of white was also displayed. Riddhima's friends greet them soon and along with Muskaan and Sapna, Riddhima went towards the dance floor which was buzzing woth The Disco song.
Armaan
went towards the bar with the guys and all get themselves a soft drink
as hard drinks were prohibited in university's boundary. He turned on
his stool to look at Riddhima swaying with the music. Her red dress,
which almost made him breathless when he first saw her in the evening
today, was hugging her body till her knees. It was a simple dress that
had some large shinny stones along the neck line as the dress covered
her one shoulder, leaving other bare which she smartly covered with her
hairs as they were tied in a neatly made pony tail. Her face was
having a light layer of make up along with that ark sweet red lipstick,
completely showing the length of her lips. She matched nice silver pomps to go the dress and the way shr was swaying, Armaan knew many guys were having there eyes on her.
Soon
the disco song finished and girls get back only to grab the boys hand
for the next dance, which was a slow number from Race 2. Atif Aslam and Sunidhi Chauhan's voice filled the air as Muskaan and Rahul get on the dance floor, following by Amit and Sapna and Armaan and Riddhima.
Armaan hands sweetly slipped around her waist, caressing it with his finger tips while Riddhima's
hand went around his neck. They should have felt a little awkward with
there closeness but all they felt was a craving to.be more close then
they were.
Suno na kahe kya suno na
Dil mera suno na, suno zara
Teri baahon me mujhe rehna hai raat bhar
Teri baahon me hogi subah
Be intehaan (be-inteha)
Be intehaan... hmmm
Yun pyaar kar (yun pyaar kar) Be intehaan
Dekha karun saari umar (saari umar)
Tere nishaan be-intehaan
Koi kasar naa rahe, meri khabar naa rahe
Chhu le mujhe is kadar be-intehaan
Jab saanson me teri saansen ghuli toh
Phir sulagne lage
Ehsaas mere mujhse kehne lage
Haa baahon me teri aake jahaan do
Yun simatne lage
Sailaab jaise koi behne lage
Khoya hoon main aagosh mein
Tu bhi kahaan ab hosh mein
Makhmali raat ki ho naa subah
Be intehaan, be-intehaan
Yun pyar kar be-inteha
hmmm...
Gustakhiyan kuch tum karo
Kuch hum kare iss tarah
Sharrma ke do saaye hain jo
Muh pher le hum se yahaan
Haan chhu toh liya hai ye jism tune
Rooh bhi choom le
Alfaaz bhige bhige kyun hai mere
Haan yun choor ho ke majboor ho ke
Qatra qatra kahe
Ehsaas bheege bheege kyun hain mere
Do bekhabar bheege badan
Ho besabar bheege badan
Le rahe raat bhar angdaiyaan
Be inteha, be inteha
Yun pyar kar, be inteha
Dekha karoon saari umar
Tere nishan, be-intehaan
Koi kasar na rahe, meri khabar na rahe
Chhu le mujhe is kadar be-intehaan
There
eyes silently conveying the message which there lips couldn't as they
were too afraid to say anything that could hurt there friendship. The
song ended after they swayed softly on the tunes. "One more song?"
Armaan asked with pleading eyes and Riddhima couldn't say No. She
nodded and they were just about to dance when Armaan felt a tap om his
shoulder. A boy was standing behind him with an annoying look.
"Riddhima...you turned down 4 other boys along with me but can't we
have a dance atleast?"
His words shocked Armaan as he looked back at Riddhima who was bitting
her lips while looking away. She turned down t guys to come with him.
What does that mean? He wondered but somewhere that smile placed on the
corner of her lips and the blush crept on her cheeks did tell him a
story as he smiled inwardly. Turning back he look at the guy, and
answered for Riddhima. "Sorry man...she is with me and I just asked her
for another dance...You can try later" The guy looked at him and then
at Riddhima before giving an understanding nod and left. Armaan hands
teasingly went around her waist and pulled her close as her hands
rested on his chest. "Look up at me" Armaan whispered while Riddhima
was trying to look around. When she didnt, Armaan moved up his hand and
cupped her face, to make her look up. Her mischievous eyes met his
dark one and it felt like, he gpt all his answers. Riddhima shying looked away as Armaan pulled her more close and she rested her head on his chest.
Soon
the song ended and Armaan quietly lead her to a corner. His hand
didn't loose it contact over her's. "Riddhima" He took her name in a
prayer like tone. So soft, full of love and hope. He needed to know
some answers right away before his head explode with confusion.
Riddhima looked up at him with a hesitant expression. She knew she has
fallen in love with this amazing handsome man, but feeling this love
and then saying it, are two different things. She can feel anything
freely but about saying it out, she doubted that her feeling could get
reciprocated back as Armaan was hurt before, and falling in love once
again right now, wasn't a easy thing for him. "Why you lied to me?" He
questioned breaking her trance. "About what?" She was clueless right
now, being deep in his thoughts. Armaan sigh while rubbing his forehead
with his free hand. "You said you dont have a partner that why you
want me to accompany you here" He explained with a cute frown. Riddhima
was getting a little tired of this hide and seek game so thought of
going ahead, she replied. "No Armaan, I wanted you to accompany me
thats why i didn't get any partner" She replied making Armaan stunned.
Does that mean...Oh really that mean that she wants...she likes...him..
He thought and look into her eyes to see a longing and helplessness.
He shook his head. This can't be possible. How can he get so lucky? He
was just thinking about it when someone called him from behind.
"Armaan" He turned to get stunned once again, seeing Radhika standing
with a wide smile. He thought he lost his voice for a moment before
replying. "Radhika, What are you doing here?" He asked quickly. Radhika
hesitantly smiled before replying. "I joined this university for my
M.Phil...ummm...Armaan
I am really sorry for whatever happened between us...I really am...Now
i have realized how big mistake I made by letting you go..." Armaan
looked at her with a raise brow while Riddhima's heart dipped on
hearing this coversation
as she took a small step back. "The man i loved...was a big time play
boy and just used me...and then i realized how foolish i was, to no
understand your..." Radhika stopped in the middle as Armaan raise his
hand in the air. He couldn't take it anymore. "Stop this Radhika" He
ordered but Radhika moved forward and cupped his face in her palm. "Why
Armaan? You told me you love me...Didn't you?" She asked in a sweet
voice, enough to get him melted but unfortunately, it wasn't working.
Riddhima tried to turn away but Armaan's grip on her hand got tighter, making her stop in her way. Armaan pushed Radhika's
hand away and pointed a finger at her. "I am not a puppet Radhika that
you can use however you like...I am so over you...Actually I am
thinking that whatever i felt for you was even able to be call as
love..." He barked with anger, keeping his voice a lil
low as he don't want any audience. Radhika looked at her with hollow
eyes before he ignored her completely and turn to look at Riddhima, who
was standing there with a teary face. Just the thought of loosing
Armaan made her cry. Armaan wiped her tears, softly before whispering.
"Riddhima...You wanted me to have a second heart break, but what if I
dont want a heart-break now...??" He lifted up her face to make her
realize what he means. "What if I need your support to help me go
through this journey beside you, Can you promise to take care of my
poor heart who seeks love from you?" He asked with tenderness pouring
out from each of his words. His words were not direct but clear enough
for her to get all happy. A smile lit up on her face as Armaan asked
"Can you promise to love me all through my life?" He questioned next as
another tear dropped from her eye. "Till my last breath" She whispered
through a smile making Armaan smile too, as he pulled her in a hug. "I
love you" He whispered near her ears, making her all blush. "I love
you too" She whispered back promising herself to never ever let Armaan
get hurt. He was precious and sweet...and she will cherish this
blessing of his existence, all her life. And for him, she meant more
than anyone else he met before. They both needed time to work on there
relationship, but they both didn't want to let there feelings hide from
eachother as if it gets late, all you got to do is cry over spilt milk.
Nazar se nazar miley
Nazar se nazar miley
To dekhenge aankhein sapna
Jo yun koi saath chalein
To lagne lagega apna
Riddhima and Armaan tried to catch up there breath while leaning on the main door of his apartment. The kiss, their first kiss, they just shared now was way more passionate, sweet and intimate than they had ever imagined. It has been three months since that prom night, they were dating. There parents were unaware of there budding relationship and her friends were more than ready to help them out to escape from cunning eyes of their parents. Today, just few hours back, Armaan expressed his love infront of a group of people that were present in that cafe, where they first met and which was now, one of there fav spot. Riddhima surly was elated with the proposal and accepted it, and as a proof, a small simple gold ring was gracefully placed in her finger. They just rushed back to his apartment to celebrate when her Armaan noticed that the zip of her dress was a little open at the back. He moved closer to her to drew it up but Riddhima mis-interpreated his attention and moved back till she hit the door. Armaan smiled inwardly seeing that scared face of this brace Riddhima and didn't let his facial emotion show how funny she was looking. Riddhima looked at her with a bewildered expression as he approached her and hold her shoulders. "Armaan, what are you..." She started saying when Armaan put his finger on her lips whispering "Sshhh". His finger caressed her lips when he took hold of her shoulder and turned her around against the door. Riddhima's heart was beating so furiously that she felt that whole room could hear its beat. Armaan's tantalizing fingers smoothly moved her hairs away which were caught in a ponytail on her shoulder. Riddhima closed her eyes, not knowing what to do. Pushing him was so hard and for sure, she didn't had that strength too. Armaan teasingly moved her fingers at her back and when she was sure, she was about to faint, he pulled the zip up, making her surprize. Armaan smiled while nuzzling her hairs, inhailing the sweet smell of her shampoo as he whispered. "I willn't do anything that you are not comfortable with...Plus i just wanted to protect you from anyone's else gaze...Cant stand if anyone look at you with evil eyes..." Riddhima's heart fill with love for this amazing amazing man. He cared so much for her and her wellness. Slight tears filled her eyes as she turned and get into the hold of his arms. She softly cupped his face while looking straight into his eyes and then, they both didn't know who initiated the kiss as the next thing they found was there lips on each other and that was one hell of there kiss. Each's first kiss.
Armaan
turned his face to look at her and came infront of her to pull her
once again in his arms. Somehow, the feeling of having her in his arms
make him feel complete. Her hands get placed on his chest and he took
hold of her hand to bring it close to his lips. He placed a soft kiss
on her knuckles and rubbed that place with his thumb. He looked up next
to found her cheeks turned into a soft pink color, making her have a
beautiful glow out there. He couldn't resist tasting her once one. The
urgency was too much. "I love you so much Riddhima"
He said quickly pulling her to him as he kissed her once again. "I
love you too..." She whispered against his lips before loosing herself.
She was his healer, his medication and now, after knowing how much she
worth it, he surly planned to cherish her forever.

Kabhi kabhi aisa hota hai
jaage jaage koi sota hai

kahin aisa na ho jaye
Tapping
her fingers on the steering, she sings the song along with the radio.
It's one of her favorite songs of the last year and that's why, she
remembered it word by word. Stopping at a signal, she looked into the rearview
to check herself. The sunglasses were giving a really classy look on
her face. She pulled out the glasses to check her Kajal and put that
back. She was really not a decked up kind of person. She believes to
live with simplicity and that's why on her face, other than lip-gloss
and Kajal, there was not a single particle of make-up. The signal
turned green and she hit the race to move towards her destined place.
She was going to meet another boy for marriage proposal. Probably, if
she can count right, this was the 13th boy, she was going to meet and
all thanks to her parents. When sometimes, she feels irritated, other
times, she finds it fun too. She got to meet different kind of guys.
Some too much geek, some too cool...Some to professional, and some too
cheesy...Some totally boring and some sugar coated romantic. And now,
it seems like, she is off to disclose a new adventure today.

"Have
you ever been in love?" Shilpa asked slowly yet excitedly, tapping her
fingernails on that red table of the cafe. Armaan looked at her
amused. "I think, I am in love" He confessed for the first time,
surprising himself that the thing he even till now hadn't confessed to
himself or to the girl, he supposed he love and now, out of the blue,
he is accepting that in front of a stranger girl, he met for the first
time. "There is nothing as such I THINK in love Armaan...Either its
LOVE, or its NOT...There is no place of uncertainty or doubt in love"
She said in a strong voice with a bright dreamy smile. "Are you in
love?" Her words made Armaan doubt that. "No, not yet...but I just
believe that whenever I will fall in love, it will be something so
strong, something so sudden...as if like a tornado" She chuckled at her
own statement making Armaan smile too. "Are you sure, you are not in
love cause on one side you are saying you are not and on the other
side, you know so much about its depth" Armaan said in a teasing voice,
raising his brows that made her smile. "That's because I witnessed the
beautiful love story of my parents and see it growing day by
day...they make an ideal couple...Dad always tells me how beautiful and
strong this feeling is...how badly it may hit you and how sometimes
you can feel weak and at times strong too...Just cause of its power"
She said truthfully. Armaan just can't seem to leave with a choice
other than admiring this frank and bubbly girl. "I just wish you get
that dream story of your own too" He wished from a clean heart. "Thank
you" Shilpa replied with a pleasant smile" "and also best of luck to
you too for your coming life with your girl" She said teasing him,
making him go all red. "Thank you to you too" He said after a while,
looking down at the table in between them, playing with his car keys.
"Oh now see...in all this discussion, our coffee is now cold...Waiter"
Shilpa quickly called the waiter and asked him to give them fresh hot
coffee. That moment of distraction brought by Shilpa really made Armaan
comfortable once again.

They
both were on a proposal meeting arranged by their parents who wanted
to see them married. Too bad, there wishes willn't be fulfilled now
since Armaan is already in love and Shilpa want to go for a love
marriage just like her own parents. Armaan made it clear to Shilpa that
he loves someone else and can't imagine his life without her and
Shilpa was quite OK with his response. "Hmm...we can't be what our
parents suppose us to be but can we become friends...you are an amazing
girl Shilpa" Armaan said, hoping a yes as they came out from the cafe
and moved towards their cars. "For sure Armaan...I love making new
friends and mind you...I am not like those who forget there friends
with time...as my friends state it...Yaroon ki Yaar
type hoon main" that mischievous smile didn't leave her face and now,
out in sun-light, Armaan saw and noticed her features. She was a really
pretty and simple kind of girl. He would really have said a yes for
her to his parents, only if, just only if Radhika wasn't a part of his
life before Shilpa. "You have my number right" Shilpa asked before she
was about to leave. Armaan just nods in reply. "It was really nice
meeting you Armaan" She put forward her hand and Armaan shakes it with
his. "Same here". Bidding bye, she wore her sunglasses while going
towards the parking and after getting into the car, zoomed off. Armaan
too get into his black BMW to get back home and face his parents.
Baat jo badhegi baat baat mein
Khwaab hi...
khwaab hoge har raat mein
Hoga jab pyaar tujhe
Hoga na qaraar tujhe
Tu yeh soch le..
It
was the third day after their meeting. Armaan was getting too bored
while sitting in his bed, wearing his night dress and playing games on
his iPhone. "Darn" Throwing the mobile on the bed, he lay down. Radhika
was away on her last university trip and till now, he couldn't confess
to her. His friends used to call him a fool for falling for a girl,
who never showed interest in him. But how could he tell them, that
that's the main reason which provoke him and attracted him to her. He
sighs. But there is one person who hasn't judged his love. A person he
met two days back and become friend with. And right now, it was time to
get on with that friendship. Holding his mobile, he turned to lay on
his stomach and after searching out her name, called her.
On
the other hand Shilpa was busy while working on her final project
which she has to submit in a month time. The pencil was stuck into her
mouth as she was making some notes and later on, holding her laptop,
was making some graphics on power-point when her phone buzzed. Without
looking at the name, she picked up the phone.
"Hey"
holding the phone between her cheek and shoulder, she once again
started working on her laptop. "Hmm...Hi...Armaan here...remember"
Armaan introduced himself with a hesitant tone. A smile crept up Shilpa's
face hearing his statement. "Of course I do... Told you I am a good
friend" She grinned while Armaan chuckled on the other side. "I get it
now... So how's life going on?" He questioned laying down fully,
keeping the iPhone on the bed, and stuck his ear to it, relaxing his
hands. "It's getting tougher... Ghar ka mahol Thora garam
hai... My parents still angry with my rejection for you and above that
this project of mine taking a toll on me" She took a deep breath,
being exasperated from the current situation. "Yeah, my parents too...
They are hardly talking to me" Armaan expressed his state too. "You
deserve that... I mean, who dare to reject such a good looking and
intelligent girl like me" She teased him as he laughed. "I know... You
are superb in your way...and trust me...If I wasn't in love before
meeting you... I would have definitely gone for you" Armaan said
honestly that made Shilpa quiet for a moment. "Then I guess, it's your
loss..." She was back in chirpy tone and Armaan agreed teasingly. "For
sure" Shilpa giggled on the other side. "Ok leaves this humor
aside...tell me about your love story... I need to relax for a bit" She
pushed away her laptop and notes, and stretching her legs in the
front, lay back on the headrest while playing with her hairs. "And you
think my LOVEE
STORY is good enough to entertain you" He joked. "I don't know... You
tell me na...Is it like those Mills and Bones kind of story?" She
wondered. "Ha-ha... You think that that kind of romance exists in
reality? Those slow moments when your eyes met the girl's eyes and her
blush seeing your intent gaze on her... I would have got a slap if it
had been that kind of romance with me" Shilpa laughed at his statement.
"I do think that kind of romance do exist somewhere... Anyways, what's
your story?" She asked once again and Armaan sighed on the other side,
and hold his phone in his hand now, sit down and started playing with
his nails. "My love story is not actually a love story till now...as
the girl I love still don't have a hint about it" He explained with a
sad voice. "Oh really...Then when are you planning to tell her?" She
was surprised by his answer. "Around this weekend or next...Actually
she is off to her university trip for now...and will get back on
Saturday...So may be this sunday
or next...whenever I am gonna meet her" Armaan told his plans.
"Hmm...I wish you all the best Armaan...Hope she will said yes to
you...By the way, whats her name?" She asked out of curiosity.
"Radhika...My father's friend daughter." Armaan told her. "Sweet
name..." Shilpa commented. "Thank you" Armaan replied. "Ok Armaan, Nice
talking to you but now I have to get back to my project...I really
need to finish first draft today" She said sitting up, stretching her
back, trying to relax it. "Ok...In between on which subject you have to
make a project?" He inquired. "Management...A Study On Effectiveness
Of Training Programme"
Shilpa explained him. "Oops...that's perfect...If you want any help
than you can ask me...I too have done my MBA in management" Armaan
offered a hand and Shilpa was more than glad to take it. Its better to
have two minds than one and they decided to met next day outside the
same cafe, they met before.
And
then Armaan started meeting her on daily basis. They used to share
ideas and discuss the project over few cups of coffee. He was quiet
impressed with Shilpa's
first draft, but still, there was a long way to go. Whenever they get
tired, Armaan used to took her to a nearby park where they would stroll
for sometime and then sitting on a bench, in between the calmness of
nature, discuss there daily lifes.
Armaan told Shilpa all about Radhika. How she is a student of his
rival college and he first saw her in the Inner-College Games function a
few months back, and was attracted to her. How his friends dared him
to go and ask her for a coffee and she plainly rejected that without a
second thought. They later on became friends and now, he just hopes
that she said yes to him. "I will pray that she say yes..." Shilpa
prayed from a clear heart that left him smiling.
It
was a rainy day. Shilpa just get back from her university at 5pm,
totally drenched. Her hairs were sticky and mud stains were prominent
on her white trouser. "Ramdin kaka...Please
bring a hot cup of coffee in my room please" She asked politely while
moving towards her room. But she just entered, when her phone buzzed.
She took it out from her bag irritatingly because she badly wanted a
warm shower before indulging herself in other things, but Armaan name
flashed, and she quickly picked it up with an excited face. "Hello,
Armaan...What she said?" She remembered Armaan telling her earlier in
the morning through a message that he is gonna propose Radhika today
and as she had few back to back classes, all she could do was to send a
text message back, wishing him all luck during the lecture. But right
now, the silence on the other side of the phone, really scared her.
"Armaan..." She called his name once again and in reply, she heard a
little cry. "Armaan...What happened?" She asked once again. "No..." His
whisper came back. "She said No" He felt a lump in his throat saying
that as tears were continuously running down his face. "OK...where are
you now...I am coming" Shilpa asked quickly, throwing her bag on the
bed and went towards her wardrobe to grab warm clothes. "At my
apartment" Armaan told her. "Stay there...I am coming in 20 minutes"
Shilpa replied and cutting the call, quickly changed herself into fresh
clothes and holding her mobile move out. "Bibi ji...Coffee" Ramdin said who was just about to run into her. Shilpa grabbed the cup quickly. "Kaka...tell Mom and Dad when they return that I am at my friend's place...will be back in sometime ok" Kaka nod and with the cup, Shilpa went out where her driver was waiting for her.
On
the other hand, Armaan was devastated by the rejection of Radhika. He
was in his apartment which he use whenever his parents are out of town
or country as that huge mansion make him feel really lonely without
them. Armaan had showed Shilpa his apartment too when they needed to
download some files on her laptop that he couldn't do in the cafe.
He
was shattered. He was breaking down with each passing second. The
fantasy that he has created over the months, a fantasy that has became
his life line was no longer there. What he is supposed to do now. How
he is supposed to survive now. Tears were continuously running down
his cheeks. He sniffed with muffed cries which were escaped from his
thin lips.
Right
then the door bell ring. He got up from the floor perfectly knowing
who it must be. Right now, he doesn't need anyone who gives him an
I-TOLD-YOU-SO look. He wanted someone who will hear him out and let him
explain his feelings and Shilpa, is just that person. He cleared his
face, feeling conscious of himself and opened up the door just to hear.
"Pumpara..."
Shilpa raised up her hand showing a shopping bag, which had two packs
of Maggie inside and a smile placed on her lips. "I hope your kitchen
is in a running position as I am really hungry" She said getting in
after pushing him aside. Armaan looked at her with hollow eyes. She got
into the kitchen and bend down to take out an old sauce pan and after
cleaning it properly, filled it will water. Turning on the electric
stove, she put the pan on it "What are you doing?" Armaan asked with a
confused face as she put Maggie into the boiling water now. "Armaan,
Have you ever discussed your heart break over a bowl of maggie?" She
asked with a wondering look, trying to keep her face as serious as
possible, but that small smile at the corner of her lips, was hard to
ignore. Armaan glared at her. It felt like she was making fun of him
and he shook his head in anger. "No...I am not" She said even before he
could say anything. But for her, he didn't need to say anything. His
crystal clear face was expressing his emotions and feelings perfectly.
Armaan looked back at her with a questioning look as she started. "I am
not making fun of you or your feelings...its just that I am famished
right now" She said patting her belly. Her sincere eyes convey there
message and he gave a small nod of understanding. "You go out and
sit...I will be there in a minute with this" She turned around to check
on her Maggie while Armaan came out and sit on sofa.
His
body leaned forward as his index finger traced his trembling thin
lips. Tears started to flow out once again as he remembered how Radhika
broke his heart in pieces.
"Are
you out of your mind Armaan...Damn...I never knew you feel this way
about me" Radhika shouted at him as he expressed his love. He was
sitting on his knees. The bouquet of roses was still placed in his
hands which he was just stretching out to her, a few minute back. "You
know, I never had...any kind of feelings for you,,,,,,,,Especially not
like this one's" She barked mentioning towards the roses and card which
was placed on the bench. "I wish i would never had become friends
with you...i wish i would never had said yes to meet you out here when
you called me today...I so wish" She stomped her foot on the grass of
the park, she was standing in. "But Radhika..." Armaan started to say
something after gulping down the lump that formed in his throat. "No
Buts Armaan...I became friend with you just because you are my father's
friend son...there was never something more than that...I love someone
else and I better don't want to see you around me ever" Radhika said
and left, leaving him in a pool of tears.
Only he knew how he made it to this apartment without any accident as the tears were refusing to stop for a second.
Shilpa
came out holding the two bowls in her hands and sit beside him on the
sofa. The moment beside him caught his attention as he turned around
and saw her eating Maggie while moaning aloud. A few minutes later,
she started making more funny noises while eating Maggie. Armaan was
getting irritated now. "Shilpa" He chided. "Stop that" Shilpa turned to
him with a smirk and propped the fork in the air, rolling the noodles
over it. "Armaan..." She wanted to tease him some more but seeing the
glare, he passed her way, she stopped. "Ok...sorry sorry...tell me what
happened?" Shilpa asked with a genuine tone now. Armaan looked at her
face to see her all ears and sigh, leaning back, covering his face with
his hand. "She is in love with someone else" Armaan explained in
minimum amount of words, that could tell her his condition. "OHH"
escaped Shilpa's mouth as she turned her body and now was looking at
him straightly. His facial expressions were telling her how worn out he
really was. She put the bowl down on the side table and get closer to
him.
A
hand came over his shoulder that make him look up into her caring
eyes. "Armaan" She licked her dried lips before saying anything. "Look,
i am not going to say all that comforting words you generally expect
someone say to you nor i am going to look at you with pity in my
eyes...Its reality Armaan, Sometimes it does happen...Its not necessary
that the person you love, too love you back...But just because of the
reason that you didnt get the love you wished for, I really dont want
you to push away the love that you are having from such a long time,
like your parents, your friends...I also know its early on this stage
that i am saying all this Armaan, just think...what will you get after
making everyone know that you get heart-broken...What will be the use
when the person you love right now, willn't be feeling the pain, you
are suffering from" She looked up at him as he was looking at her
intently, so she continued. "All you will get is, Everything will be
alright, be brave kind of line and pitiful glances...Do you want to get
all of them?" Shilpa questioned but in reply, Armaan just keep on
looking at her as if she is an alien. This mature side of her, he has
scene before on there very first meeting, but later on, her bubbly,
full of life avatar, took over that image. But right now, all Armaan
could find was a grown up, mature girl inside her, who cares, loves,
respects and like to enjoy her life. "Tell me na? Do you want to get
all of it??" She shook his shoulder when he didn't give a reply and
then, he just nodded. "So let me tell you one thing...Just cry over it
tonight...bring out all the pain, you are feeling right now...but
tomorrow morning, make that Armaan get alive once again who is full of
dreams, ambitions. Who loves to love and spread happiness" She smiled
brightly and don't know why, but Armaan didn't feel like crying
anymore. As if, her words took over his pain. They were the true
medication for his wounds.

Shilpa
carelessly got hold of her bowl once again and started eating her
noddles. "Have you ever discussed your heart break over a bowl of
maggie?" It was Armaan time to ask her as he felt something fishy.
"Yes, Twice" She replied carelessly and then a smile popped up on her
lips, as if remembering a very funny incident and then, she started
telling him all about it, lost in her own world. "I still
remember...First time when I had the crush on our college's football
coach...Damn, he was so handsome and most of the girls of our college
had eyes on him...But a few months later, we saw that he brought his
wife into the college along with his son who was seeking for
admission..." She chuckled remembering her foolishness. "I so cried
that night that i almost ended two tissue boxes...Muskaan, my best
friend...she made Maggie for me that night, perfectly knowing it is my
weakness and made me realize, how foolish i was" She ended with an
innocent smiled while chewing on. "By any chance, did she just said
these same lines...You just tell me?" Armaan questioned only to receive
a narrow eye look on himself. Her lips twitched as she observed his
face and then a grin get placed on it. "You are reading my mind
now...How did you get that?" And that what brought a giggle from Armaan
as he pushed back his head, truly not knowing how he get so lucky to
have a friend like her. "Oh hello...It was just not word to word like
what she said...I improvised this whole dialogue, giving it Shilpa's
touch" And he laughed more and she joined him too. "You are seriously
something Shilpa" Armaan laughed and laughed till he couldn't laugh
anymore. "Glad you admit that...as there is only one SOMETHING KIND OF
Shilpa" And Armaan agreed. Shilpa's
bowl was empty by now so she took hold of the other one, that she had
actually brought for Armaan. Armaan eyed it and getting closer to her,
took hold of it. "That's mine" He took hold of the spoon from her hand
and started eating. "Hey...how can you take it?" Shilpa complained as
Armaan rolled the noodles on her spoon and took a big bite. "That's
cause I have a friend who like to share break-ups over a bowl of
Maggie" He said as she just smiled and leaned back to see him eating.
"That's your first heart break Armaan" Shilpa asked next that made
Armaan hand stopped for a bit before he nods. Shilpa pat his back
lightly before saying. "Don't worry...1st heart-break is always
worse...You will be ok after 2nd one" and that made Armaan choke on his
food as he daggers looked at her. "What?" He shouted. "You want me to
go through a 2nd heart break..." Shilpa laughed at his facial
expressions "You said we are friends...I discuss my heart-breaks over a
bowl of Maggie and so you too wanna do that...but i also had two
heart-breaks...so i will really like you to be equal to me out there
too" She said, pulling the bowl and took a spoon full of noodles.
Armaan laughed out loud at her Foolish Theory and took out the other
spoon from her earlier empty bowl. They started eating from a same bowl
when Armaan said. "Ok, tell me about your 2nd heart-break" and then
Shilpa started telling him about her crush over her hawt professor who was already twice married.

Few
days passed away. Shilpa was constantly a support for Armaan. Whenever
he would feel low, She was there to cheer him up and bring him back to
life. He decided to do his PHD in management further to get a better
grip of management and after applying for his admission in his old
university, he started on with his PHD program.
"Armaan...Don't
you play any kind of sports?" Shilpa one day asked generally while
picking out chips from the bag. The books were scattered around them in
his apartment as in just two days Shilpa had to submit her final
project. "Yeah i do play Volley Ball for my university...actually next
week we are having a match against another university" Armaan said
laying on the sofa as they took a break from the studies. "Oh
really...Can I come over to see it?" Shilpa asked with a very chirpy
voice. "Yeah sure..." Armaan replied closing his eyes. He was in need
to have a no silence moment. Shilpa understand that and decided to work
on the presentation when her phone buzzed. She picked it up to see her
friends message, asking her if she will like to join them in club
tonight. It was long since Shilpa went out with her friends somewhere
so she quickly said yes and after pressurizing Armaan a little, made
him agree too to go out with her.
And
the club was surly a great idea as the last streak of disappointment,
that Armaan had was finally disappeared. He enjoyed his time with
Shilpa and his friends consist of Muskaan, Rahul, Amit, Sapna and Atul. The danced, drink a little and went out to eat in pizza hut. Atul dropped everyone in his jeep. The jeep stopped infront of Shilpa's home when Amit
turned and got attention of both, Shilpa and Armaan. "Armaan, Are you
free this Saturday. We are planning a short trip to Goa for three days
and we would really like if you could join us" All eyes turned to
Armaan who was scratching his temple. "Guys, I would really like to
come but I have a volleyball match this Thursday and If we would
qualify then we have a final to play on next Tuesday..." Armaan
explained about his game. "Hmmm..." Amit
thought for a moment and came up with a plan. "How about we leave at
Thursday night and we can come back on Sunday evening so Armaan can
relax on Monday and then can participate in final match" That sound
logical and all nodded in approval. "What say Armaan?" Now Shilpa asked
him with a twinkle in her eyes. "Thats a great idea...but my practice?" Another issue got raised by him and all sigh. "Armaan, In goa we can play beach volley ball yaar...thats not a problem ok" Atul
suggested and Armaan nodded. Its long he went out of town, and in this
current situation, he was surly in need to have a break.
"Xaviers...Xaviers" Shilpa was cheering at top of her lungs for Armaan's
team in rhythm with his university mates. The end was around and
Armaan had to serve the ball. Xavier needs the last point to win though
they were already leading with 24-19 points but this last point would
be the stamp on there success. Armaan pushed the ball in the air. The
crowd was cheering furiously but there hearts were beating as fast as
they could. Armaan jumped up and gave a solid hit, pushing the ball on
the other side of the net. The rivals did caught a hold of ball but
just before he was about to land on the ground. The slight push given
by him was not enough to send it back to the other side. Another guy
tried to get closer but the ball was far out of his reach and hit the
ground. Referee show the flag on Xavier side, making them earn the last
point as the whole Xavier crowd was cheering and hooting for there
winning team. Armaan mates hugged him wishing him congrats. His eyes
moved up to look at Shilpa who was jumping on the huge stairs, where
she was sitting before and on seeing him looking at herself, she gave a
thumbs up sign as a bright smile lit up her face. Armaan removed his
wining shirt in happiness. Shilpa run down into the ground towards him
with open arms. Armaan expected a hug and prepared himself but when she
actually landed into his arms, he stumbled two steps back before
getting himself stable. "Awww
Armaan...Congrats...You were fabulous" She squealed into his ear
before breaking the hug, giving him a wide smile. "Thank you" He humbly
replied with a sweet smile as she get back. He took hold of the shirt,
he removed and made her wear as a thank you for all the support, she
provided in last few weeks.
Aayega woh paas jo door hai

Leaning
back comfortably on his sand chair, wearing nothing but just his
shorts, he looked up at his front to admire the vast sea, displayed. He
took a deep breath to inhale that beautiful sea smell and a smile got
on his lips.Its been 1st day of them in Goa. He loves sea more than
mountains. He had even went out with his friends for scoobadiving
and it was one hell of an experience. Watching the beautiful inner
life of sea, moving along with those colorful fishes. But. OH MY
GOD!!!! What a sight he got to see. His jaw dropped seeing the ethereal
dusky beauty coming out from the water. And what draw his attention
more was that, she was Shilpa. His mind boggles looking at her wearing
just her one piece swimwear that was hugging her body like a second
skin. "God!! She is hot" He heard someone say beside him and an instant
anger rise up in his body when he looked at two guys, wearing shorts,
drinking coconut water were standing beside him and a lusty look were
throwing on Shilpa's
way. One part of his body want to bash up those boys, telling them
exactly what's hot in here and other part, want to run away and wrapped
her in the security of his arms, to keep her protected. A battle was
still running inside his body when Muskaan, Sapna and Shilpa get on
that mat, they had placed near sea and wrapped there waists with
clothes. He turned to look at those guys who had left too. He leaned
back with a confused look, trying to understand as why he felt so
agitated on knowing that someone eyes Shilpa. He looked at her smiling
self who was enjoying the sun while leaning back on her hands. Her
hairs were wet from her sea diving and was in a chat with Muskaan and
Sapna. Armaan was feeling restless. He needed a way to distract himself
so he got up and went towards the sea. Getting into a good level, he
took a deep breath, filling his lungs with enough air and dived in.
Shilpa's
eyes didn't miss the drooling look on Armaan face, when she came out
after her dive. But suddenly he looked away and all she could feel on
his face was anger and desperation. She was confused and choose to
ignore him while getting herself busy in a chat with Muskaan and Sapna
but she couldn't miss him passing by her and get into the sea. Her eyes
lingered over the sea as he dived in and was beating furiously, when
she didnt see him out after a few seconds. But he came up and she took a
sigh of relief, holding her heart before looking back at him. He was
marching out as if he owns the sea. As if, he is some sea king,
marching in his estate. The droplets of water were running on his body
continuously as she felt her mouth go dry, seeing his perfect abs,
proudly showing there existence over his slightly tanned skin. He was
gorgeous with that little boyish beard and had a body to drool on. "He
is smookingly hot yaar" Muskaan commented that make me get out from his trance and look daggers at her. "Muskaan, don't you have Rahul?"
She asked seething with anger but tried to keep her voice cool. "I
do...but you can't just stop appreciate a Mango in summers when you do
get apple everyday, in every month...now can you" She said, still
looking in Armaan's
direction. Sapna cracked up with Muskaan's resemblance of Armaan with
Mango...Seriously, a man matching with a fruit. Shilpa too joined Sapna
in her laughter as Muskaan realized what she said and get embarrassed.
Her cheeks were pink that made the, laugh more. Muskaan is a crack
piece but sometimes, she is so mature. Shilpa loves her friends
craziness. "Shilpa...You and Armaan are being together from a few weeks
now...Have you ever felt a pull towards him?" Shilpa's laughter died with Muskaan's question who was still looking at Armaan's
way. "What do you mean by that Muskaan?" She asked, raising her brow.
Muskaan turned to look at her and shrugged her shoulders. "I mean...He
is sweet, good natured, handsome, attractive and not to mention...very hot...Have you ever thought about the scenerio
as what if he hadn't been in love with that girl? What if, you both
had met the way you did just without him being in love already, as he
stated that. Would you had said yes to him?" She asked and Sapna's
cunning eyes were too set on Shilpa's to catch her reaction but she
was dumb. Her eyes were fixed on Armaan. Its not like she hadn't
thought about it, she did, many times. It was hard to resist him when
he used to sit so close to her during studies, trying to get her
attention on a main point. But she knew, that him being in love, the
thoughts will lead her nowhere. She was still in thoughts where Sapna
jerked her shoulder and she startled, looked around as she was at lost
of an answer. Sapna and Muskaan noted her averted gaze and sigh. There
friend needed a push and they were there to do that. "You know
something Shilpa? Sapna started getting her attention. "You both with
make a really sweet yet a hot pair" A side-looped smile graced her soft
pink lips that turn into a grin later on as her friends grinned back
at her..
The
trip to Goa was a memorable one. Shilpa felt her breath got caught in
her lungs whenever she watched Armaan and the guys playing beach
volleyball while she and girls get settled on the sand, to watch them.
Whenever his dusky skin gets that bright sand all over it, she couldn't
stop herself to drool over his body. He was charismatic and he was so
unaware of it. She saw many girls eying
his broad chest with perfect abs, his looks, that would instantly send
her on a high temperature. She was getting possessive of him. And same
was going on with Armaan too. Seeing someone looking at her with
lust-filled eyes, would made him boggles. He actually beat a guy in the
club, who was constantly trying to dance close to her, when the went
out one night. His nerves were on high alert. He was getting too
precise to notice her beautiful giggle, her mesmerizing smile that make
you smile too, her childish kind of frown when she don't get something
like her way, and her narrow eyes, who says more question than her
raise brows or her lips. He was liking this girl, way more than he
actually know.

Shilpa
was settled with her friends on the stairs of her university's
corridor as they were seeing the picture of Goa in her laptop. Armaan's final was in the afternoon and this whole group was going to cheer him up. The slideshow
was on when this whole group along with Armaan went to that banana
boat ride and fell in the water, some group photos on the beach, in
club, in the lounge of there hotel, terrace of there rooms. They all
were watching and remembering the fun they had. One picture of Armaan
and Shilpa get displayed on the screen where Shilpa was wearing a beach
hat in a tilted position. A smirk was there on her face as she was
doing this pose and Armaan was laughing at her cuteness. "See, I told
you, You guys make a good couple" Sapna said with happiness. "You both
look so cute together" Muskaan chimed in. "Really?" Shilpa asked with a
hopeful yet happy look on getting this compliment. "Really buddhu...What say Amit?" Muskaan asked Amit who agreed and Sachit and Rahul
too nodded. Shilpa was happy just by hearing this comment of her
friends, unaware of the pair of eyes, who get a look of the picture and
was seething with anger.
The
match started as Shilpa with her friends get settled on the huge stairs
of the ground, once again. She crossed her fingers and was constantly
praying for Armaan's success. The other team was surly tough. Just in the start they scored 6 points while Xavier's
were on Nil. Xavier crowd was feeling down. No one was cheering
anymore when One of Armaan mates get a point and the crowd get wild and
then, there was so back off. Xaviers cope up with the loss pretty
quickly and were leading from 11 to 8. Shilpa's eyes lit up everytime Armaan made a score and her friends teased her mercilessly on her excitement. Finally after a 45 minutes match, Armaan's
university won the finale, earning them a huge trophy. Shilpa cheered
on top of her lungs as Armaan and his friends get on the stage to
receive there trophy. When crowd was allowed in, Shilpa quickly rushed
in, leaving her friends behind and as if he was waiting for her, he
caught her from her waist as she landed in her arms and pulled her up
in a happy twirl. Her friends smiled brightly, seeing there obvious
chemistry. "You won...You won" Shilpa shouted as he put her back on the
ground. "Yep" He laughed at her but then his eyes landed on her dress,
making him look back at her face with a raise brow. She was wearing
the his same sports shirt, he put on her a few days back. Shilpa
observed his gaze and shrugged her shoulders in reply. "I thought this
is the best sports wear that i have..." Shilpa mumbled making Armaan
smile as he shook his head before looking back at her cute face. This
girl is crazy and he is so liking and loving her craziness.
"Armaan..."
Shilpa whined on the phone. "What happened?" He asked rubbing his wet
hairs with a towel as he just came out after taking a bath. "I need
your help..." She bit her lowered lip when he just made a sound as if
asking her to go on. "Will you be my partner for prom tonight?" She
said only to jear
Armaan laugh. "Why what happened? Your partner dumped you?" He teased
her. "No" came straight out of her mouth. "He didnt dump me...he just
get into a small accident and get his knee injured...and others are not
interested to go out with me as I am a dare devil type na...they are
just painly
scared" She said in a fake angry tone while remembering how 5 of her
classmates has asked her and she turned them down.. "Hmmm" Armaan
jumped on to his bed, rubbing his chin with a deep thought. He cant
believe at all that no one has asked Shilpa. From Atul, Amit and Rahul,
he got to know that she is the one of the most famous girl in college.
Bit then, he was more than glad to have an opportunity to go out her,
as her man. Oh mean partner. "Is it taking you so much time to answer?"
She asked in an irritated tone that snapped him out from his thoughts.
"NO NO...absolutely no" Armaan said quickly, trying to cover up his
aloofness. "What? No? You dont wanna come with me?" Her hart sink with
his reply as thoughts gripped her mind. She just wanted to take a hint
if he was interested in her so she could seriously think about
themselves as living in a hypothetical bubble was not her style and definately, after what happened to Armaan before, She wasnt ready to take a risk with her heart. "Shilpa, you getting me wrong..."Armaan tried to explain. "Ofcourse
i will love to go out with you" He said bitting his lips as the words
slipped out from his mouth. Shilpa's eyes lit up with his response and a
smirk got place when she thought about the LOVE TOO part. "I mean, i
am a good friend and as a friend, i should help you out...right?"
Armaan said but his voice was more like he was assuring herself than
her and she knew it. "Ok good friend" She mimicked her words, grinning
inside. Her body was exploding with happiness. She wanted to jump
around and shout in joy. "I guess, i will be picking you up tomorrow
then?" Armaan asked scratching his temple. A rush of excitement run in
his body. "Yeah...be here at 7..." She said hesitantly before
whispering "I will be waiting" softly. Armaan felt himself melted
inside just with the sheer beauty of her voice. Saying yes, he end the
call while rushing his hands through his hairs. A smile lit up on his
face just with the thought that she is counting on him. Somehow, he
felt that whatever excitement, anxiousness, he is feeling for Shilpa is
not what he felt for Radhika. This time this feeling is more deep,more
powerful and more strong and then he wondered that whatever he felt
for Radhika was even love? He paced into his room when another thought
strike his mind. "Does that mean whatever he is feeling for Shilpa is
love?" He questioned himself but the feelings were too eaw, too new to have an answer instantly. "I should take things as they come" He found a solution.

rushed to the other side of his car, after passing the key to the
valet, to help her get down infront of the university campus. He put
forward his hands and felt his mouth go dry when she looked up at him
with her sparkling kohl eyes. A beautiful smile was gracing her lips
when she put forward her sleek hand in his manly one and get out. Both
felt a spark in there touch and Shilpa wrapped her hans
around his arm, as they went towards the main door. Inside the
atmosphere was quite fun. The main hall of her university was fully
packed with students who were mostly wearing black and red, a somewhere
a hint of white was also displayed. Shilpa's friends greet them soon and along with Muskaan and Sapna, Shilpa went towards the dance floor which was buzzing woth The Disco song.
Armaan
went towards the bar with the guys and all get themselves a soft drink
as hard drinks were prohibited in university's boundary. He turned on
his stool to look at Shilpa swaying with the music. Her red dress,
which almost made him breathless when he first saw her in the evening
today, was hugging her body till her knees. It was a simple dress that
had some large shinny stones along the neck line as the dress covered
her one shoulder, leaving other bare which she smartly covered with her
hairs as they were tied in a neatly made pony tail. Her face was
having a light layer of make up along with that ark sweet red lipstick,
completely showing the length of her lips. She matched nice silver pomps to go the dress and the way shr was swaying, Armaan knew many guys were having there eyes on her.
Soon
the disco song finished and girls get back only to grab the boys hand
for the next dance, which was a slow number from Race 2. Atif Aslam and Sunidhi Chauhan's voice filled the air as Muskaan and Rahul get on the dance floor, following by Amit and Sapna and Armaan and Shilpa.
Armaan hands sweetly slipped around her waist, caressing it with his finger tips while Shilpa's
hand went around his neck. They should have felt a little awkward with
there closeness but all they felt was a craving to.be more close then
they were.
Suno na kahe kya suno na
Dil mera suno na, suno zara
Teri baahon me mujhe rehna hai raat bhar
Teri baahon me hogi subah
Be intehaan (be-inteha)
Be intehaan... hmmm
Yun pyaar kar (yun pyaar kar) Be intehaan
Dekha karun saari umar (saari umar)
Tere nishaan be-intehaan
Koi kasar naa rahe, meri khabar naa rahe
Chhu le mujhe is kadar be-intehaan
Jab saanson me teri saansen ghuli toh
Phir sulagne lage
Ehsaas mere mujhse kehne lage
Haa baahon me teri aake jahaan do
Yun simatne lage
Sailaab jaise koi behne lage
Khoya hoon main aagosh mein
Tu bhi kahaan ab hosh mein
Makhmali raat ki ho naa subah
Be intehaan, be-intehaan
Yun pyar kar be-inteha
hmmm...
Gustakhiyan kuch tum karo
Kuch hum kare iss tarah
Sharrma ke do saaye hain jo
Muh pher le hum se yahaan
Haan chhu toh liya hai ye jism tune
Rooh bhi choom le
Alfaaz bhige bhige kyun hai mere
Haan yun choor ho ke majboor ho ke
Qatra qatra kahe
Ehsaas bheege bheege kyun hain mere
Do bekhabar bheege badan
Ho besabar bheege badan
Le rahe raat bhar angdaiyaan
Be inteha, be inteha
Yun pyar kar, be inteha
Dekha karoon saari umar
Tere nishan, be-intehaan
Koi kasar na rahe, meri khabar na rahe
Chhu le mujhe is kadar be-intehaan
There
eyes silently conveying the message which there lips couldn't as they
were too afraid to say anything that could hurt there friendship. The
song ended after they swayed softly on the tunes. "One more song?"
Armaan asked with pleading eyes and Shilpa couldn't say No. She nodded
and they were just about to dance when Armaan felt a tap om his
shoulder. A boy was standing behind him with an annoying look.
"Shilpa...you turned down 4 other boys along with me but can't we have a
dance atleast?"
His words shocked Armaan as he looked back at Shilpa who was bitting
her lips while looking away. She turned down t guys to come with him.
What does that mean? He wondered but somewhere that smile placed on the
corner of her lips and the blush crept on her cheeks did tell him a
story as he smiled inwardly. Turning back he look at the guy, and
answered for Shilpa. "Sorry man...she is with me and I just asked her
for another dance...You can try later" The guy looked at him and then
at Shilpa before giving an understanding nod and left. Armaan hands
teasingly went around her waist and pulled her close as her hands
rested on his chest. "Look up at me" Armaan whispered while Shilpa was
trying to look around. When she didnt, Armaan moved up his hand and
cupped her face, to make her look up. Her mischievous eyes met his dark
one and it felt like, he gpt all his answers. Shilpa shying looked away as Armaan pulled her more close and she rested her head on his chest.
Soon
the song ended and Armaan quietly lead her to a corner. His hand
didn't loose it contact over her's. "Shilpa" He took her name in a
prayer like tone. So soft, full of love and hope. He needed to know
some answers right away before his head explode with confusion. Shilpa
looked up at him with a hesitant expression. She knew she has fallen in
love with this amazing handsome man, but feeling this love and then
saying it, are two different things. She can feel anything freely but
about saying it out, she doubted that her feeling could get
reciprocated back as Armaan was hurt before, and falling in love once
again right now, wasn't a easy thing for him. "Why you lied to me?" He
questioned breaking her trance. "About what?" She was clueless right
now, being deep in his thoughts. Armaan sigh while rubbing his forehead
with his free hand. "You said you dont have a partner that why you
want me to accompany you here" He explained with a cute frown. Shilpa
was getting a little tired of this hide and seek game so thought of
going ahead, she replied. "No Armaan, I wanted you to accompany me
thats why i didn't get any partner" She replied making Armaan stunned.
Does that mean...Oh really that mean that she wants...she likes...him..
He thought and look into her eyes to see a longing and helplessness.
He shook his head. This can't be possible. How can he get so lucky? He
was just thinking about it when someone called him from behind.
"Armaan" He turned to get stunned once again, seeing Radhika standing
with a wide smile. He thought he lost his voice for a moment before
replying. "Radhika, What are you doing here?" He asked quickly. Radhika
hesitantly smiled before replying. "I joined this university for my
M.Phil...ummm...Armaan
I am really sorry for whatever happened between us...I really am...Now
i have realized how big mistake I made by letting you go..." Armaan
looked at her with a raise brow while Shilpa's heart dipped on hearing
this coversation
as she took a small step back. "The man i loved...was a big time play
boy and just used me...and then i realized how foolish i was, to no
understand your..." Radhika stopped in the middle as Armaan raise his
hand in the air. He couldn't take it anymore. "Stop this Radhika" He
ordered but Radhika moved forward and cupped his face in her palm. "Why
Armaan? You told me you love me...Didn't you?" She asked in a sweet
voice, enough to get him melted but unfortunately, it wasn't working.
Shilpa tried to turn away but Armaan's grip on her hand got tighter, making her stop in her way. Armaan pushed Radhika's
hand away and pointed a finger at her. "I am not a puppet Radhika that
you can use however you like...I am so over you...Actually I am
thinking that whatever i felt for you was even able to be call as
love..." He barked with anger, keeping his voice a lil
low as he don't want any audience. Radhika looked at her with hollow
eyes before he ignored her completely and turn to look at Shilpa, who
was standing there with a teary face. Just the thought of loosing
Armaan made her cry. Armaan wiped her tears, softly before whispering.
"Shilpa...You wanted me to have a second heart break, but what if I
dont want a heart-break now...??" He lifted up her face to make her
realize what he means. "What if I need your support to help me go
through this journey beside you, Can you promise to take care of my
poor heart who seeks love from you?" He asked with tenderness pouring
out from each of his words. His words were not direct but clear enough
for her to get all happy. A smile lit up on her face as Armaan asked
"Can you promise to love me all through my life?" He questioned next as
another tear dropped from her eye. "Till my last breath" She whispered
through a smile making Armaan smile too, as he pulled her in a hug. "I
love you" He whispered near her ears, making her all blush. "I love
you too" She whispered back promising herself to never ever let Armaan
get hurt. He was precious and sweet...and she will cherish this
blessing of his existence, all her life. And for him, she meant more
than anyone else he met before. They both needed time to work on there
relationship, but they both didn't want to let there feelings hide from
eachother as if it gets late, all you got to do is cry over spilt milk.
Nazar se nazar miley
Nazar se nazar miley
To dekhenge aankhein sapna
Jo yun koi saath chalein
To lagne lagega apna
Shilpa and Armaan tried to catch up there breath while leaning on the main door of his apartment. The kiss, their first kiss, they just shared now was way more passionate, sweet and intimate than they had ever imagined. It has been three months since that prom night, they were dating. There parents were unaware of there budding relationship and her friends were more than ready to help them out to escape from cunning eyes of their parents. Today, just few hours back, Armaan expressed his love infront of a group of people that were present in that cafe, where they first met and which was now, one of there fav spot. Shilpa surly was elated with the proposal and accepted it, and as a proof, a small simple gold ring was gracefully placed in her finger. They just rushed back to his apartment to celebrate when her Armaan noticed that the zip of her dress was a little open at the back. He moved closer to her to drew it up but Shilpa mis-interpreated his attention and moved back till she hit the door. Armaan smiled inwardly seeing that scared face of this brace Shilpa and didn't let his facial emotion show how funny she was looking. Shilpa looked at her with a bewildered expression as he approached her and hold her shoulders. "Armaan, what are you..." She started saying when Armaan put his finger on her lips whispering "Sshhh". His finger caressed her lips when he took hold of her shoulder and turned her around against the door. Shilpa's heart was beating so furiously that she felt that whole room could hear its beat. Armaan's tantalizing fingers smoothly moved her hairs away which were caught in a ponytail on her shoulder. Shilpa closed her eyes, not knowing what to do. Pushing him was so hard and for sure, she didn't had that strength too. Armaan teasingly moved her fingers at her back and when she was sure, she was about to faint, he pulled the zip up, making her surprize. Armaan smiled while nuzzling her hairs, inhailing the sweet smell of her shampoo as he whispered. "I willn't do anything that you are not comfortable with...Plus i just wanted to protect you from anyone's else gaze...Cant stand if anyone look at you with evil eyes..." Shilpa's heart fill with love for this amazing amazing man. He cared so much for her and her wellness. Slight tears filled her eyes as she turned and get into the hold of his arms. She softly cupped his face while looking straight into his eyes and then, they both didn't know who initiated the kiss as the next thing they found was there lips on each other and that was one hell of there kiss. Each's first kiss.
Armaan
turned his face to look at her and came infront of her to pull her
once again in his arms. Somehow, the feeling of having her in his arms
make him feel complete. Her hands get placed on his chest and he took
hold of her hand to bring it close to his lips. He placed a soft kiss
on her knuckles and rubbed that place with his thumb. He looked up next
to found her cheeks turned into a soft pink color, making her have a
beautiful glow out there. He couldn't resist tasting her once one. The
urgency was too much. "I love you so much Shilpa"
He said quickly pulling her to him as he kissed her once again. "I
love you too..." She whispered against his lips before loosing herself.
She was his healer, his medication and now, after knowing how much she
worth it, he surly planned to cherish her forever.
