"Just one day, please, I promise I won't demand anything after this," Riddhi said pouting at me.
"But I just can't."
"Fine, But I will miss you."
"Me too," I said and hugged her.
"Saavi Beta, let's go." Rana Uncle said.
"Ji Uncle, just 10 more minutes," I said to him and he went out saying that he will be waiting outside in the car.
I am leaving today, and everyone wanted me to stay for one more day but I can't, because I didn't want to get indebted anymore.
There is one more reason for me to not stay here any longer, I have grown closer
Dhruv******"White Shirt""Checked""Blue Jeans""Checked""Clean Shoes""Checked""Looks, like you, are all set now," said Namit."But why do I feel something is missing?" I asked looking at my reflection into the mirror."Yes, there is one thing missing," said Arjun."What?" I and Namit asked him in unison."Your brain," he replied and received a smack on his head from Namit in response."I have been watching you from the last 20 minutes. What exactly are you trying to do?" Arjun asked."I am going to Saavi's place to study and I should look good.""And what was the issue in black tee which you were wearing a while ago?""Saavi loves white.""You are going crazy for her," he said shaking his head. He was right, I have become crazy for my muffin. Thinking about her a small smile formed on my face."Stop daydreaming about her and leave. She
Saavi******I stepped inside the big building of my school nervously. The fear of encountering the people who bully me is not leaving me, but I had to come. I can't run away like a coward, I will have to face it myself.Taking a deep breath, I went inside the library. Dhruv and the others came early and studied with me, even Jai joined us. I was not feeling comfortable, because I didn't want anyone to see us together. The moment any of my bully will see me with Dhruv and the others, they will do something to me no doubt but they might do something to them which I don't want.After the bell rang, I ran to the classroom. As I was about to enter, I tripped over someone's foot and was about to fall when a pair of arms saved me from kissing the ground. I looked to find the same green eyes looking at me with concern. Composing myself, I was about to leave when Dhruv held my hand and said to someone,"Apologize.""What did I do?"
Dhruv******"Seriously, a friendly date?" Namit asked in disbelief."I had to make her agree so I told her, it's a friendly date," I replied scratching the back of my neck."And the award for the best proposal goes to Mr.Dhruv Kapoor," Arjun said dramatically."Ok, ok, guys enough. We don't have much time. You have messed up with the proposal and now don't mess up on the date." Saying this Rohit went with Arjun and Namit to make the arrangements. Riddhi was at Saavi's place as she wanted to make her ready for the date.Jai and Nikhil were busy making other arrangements and here I am getting nervous. Is it normal to be nervous on the first date, I thought. I couldn't even ask anyone as none of my friends has ever gone on a date with someone. I just hope everything goes well and I don't mess up anything.Taking a long breath, I decided to look something good to wear. I checked all my clothes but couldn't find anything good to wear.
Dhruv******Had I ever been told by someone before, that waiting for someone was not easy, I would have mocked him, but now I realize, it's indeed not a cakewalk.I have been waiting for my muffin from last half an hour and I don't know why am I being anxious.Maybe because I think that there are chances that she might reject my proposal. Even if she rejects my proposal, she will still be the reason for my smile, at least she will be with me, even if it means, as a friend."Dhruv, calm down. Stop pacing as it won't reduce the distance between yours and Saavi's home.""Namit is right dude. Arjun and Riddhi will soon come with her. Why are you getting so anxious?"Namit and Rohit were right but this feeling of anxiety was not leaving me. I was feeling the sudden urge to see her. I had no idea what the hell was wrong with me.Without wasting any more second I called Arjun but he didn't respond. I kept calling him but after a few
Author******14º celsius and light rain showers were predicted by the weather forecasters on that day in April in London. Because of the predicted weather, the famous cafe named Keepers was crowded making him happy.He likes watching people talking with each other, the bickering of siblings, and not to mention kids creating a mess. He likes all of it, unlike others. The hot coffee was placed on his table and he started sipping it while enjoying the view, well not the outer view but the inner one, where people have come with their families to enjoy the hot coffee which was the specialty of that cafe.Keepers Cafe has been the best cafe in that area for the past 4 years and he was their regular customer. How could he not be, after all his friend was the owner and not to mention they make the best coffee in town.Keeping back the empty cup on the table, he placed the money too while making sure no was watching, he tried to flee the cafe just lik
Dhruv******As always I got up before my alarm beeped. Sometimes it feels, it's my job to wake up my alarm.What a bad joke it was. Mr.Chatterjee's company is leaving bad effects on me I guess.Mr. Chatterjee is my driver. He is Rana Uncle's relative. Rana Uncle has retired from his work now and has opened a poultry farm along with a general store in India. His business is going quite well. We often talk on the phone, and he takes tips from me regarding his business. It feels like yesterday only, when he used to teach me driving, and now he is learning the business from me.Sheela Aunty has opened a small restaurant and its working very fine. Well, it should be, after all, she is such a great cook. I have learned cooking from her only.Wearing my black hoody and grey sweatpants, I went out of the house for jogging.The black clouds were hovering and thunderstorms were loud enough to scare anyone. The rain has not started yet but it c
Dhruv******I was having breakfast when my phone beeped indicating a message. When I opened it I found grandpa's message. He had sent the address where I have to go during lunch to meet some Mr. Awasthi and his daughter whose name I don't even remember.This time there is no escape as grandpa is so determined that if I will not attend the lunch he will bring them to my office. I have to think of something before grandpa makes me ruin someone's life.With that thought running in my mind, I completed my breakfast and got ready in my normal clothes which were neither too fancy and also not too bad. I don't have a wish to impress those people grandpa is making me meet today.I don't have a wish to impress those people grandpa is making me meet todayAs I went out Chatterjee uncle was already waiting for me outside the car. "Good Morning Sir.""Good Morning Chatterjee Uncle and how many times do I have to tell you that please call me Dhru
Dhruv******'Is another Kapoor ready to get hitched?''What's cooking between the famous industrialist Dhruv Kapoor and the newbie painter Vishakha Awasthi?''Looks like the wedding bells are to be rung for another Kapoor.'These were the headlines of every newspaper in London. I and Vishakha were the hot topic of the town which none of us wanted. Reporters were outside my house waiting for its prey which was me by the way. I was regretting my decision of listening to grandpa and going for lunch yesterday.It's not like I can't handle these reporters, but the problem is I have never dated anyone and was never linked to any other girl, so now the reporters have got something about me, they won't leave me in peace till they don't find any other topic which is more exciting than my dating life.My phone was constantly ringing and I was in a state where I couldn't decide whether to handle the reporters first or my friends who reached my
