coming together

9)the 'first date'

(On the way to the airport)

Arjun: Are you sure that you want to come with me?

Tanvi: Yh why?

Arjun: Just asking because today morning you looked like you wanted to kill Lisa

Tanvi: I still do, but she still is my sister

Arjun: okay... if you say so

*beep beep*

Arjun: check my phone, Lisa might have messaged

Tanvi: remind me to keep my cool when we pick her up

Arjun: why?

Tanvi: because she called you darling as if the two of you are dating and it is making me really mad right now

Arjun: this is the reason why I thought you shouldn't come along. Now read me what she wrote

Tanvi *mimicking Lisa*: I just landed because of the rain it may take me longer. Hope you have arrived at the airport. Can't wait to see you and Tanvi!

Arjun: 😂😂okay that was the best impression I have ever heard you do. And see she isn't that bad

Tanvi: you are still so oblivious to the fact that she is in love with you.

Arjun: I'm trying to forget that baba, please don't remind me.

Tanvi: okay

(At the airport)

Angrily 😡😡Tanvi says "we've been waiting for an hour why isn't she here yet?"

Shaking his head Arjun replies "she did say it was going to take her a while due to the rain."

"Speak of the devil!" 🤬Tanvi says

"What?" Arjun asks confused

"Turn your head towards the visitors' door once!" Tanvi says 😡

"Okay one thing before she gets towards us. She's going to be here for at least 2 months so I need you to keep your cool. If not for yourself for me," Arjun says with pleading eyes🥺🥺

"Fine!" Tanvi replies angrily 😒

Lisa approaches them and says "seem like you two are busy talking about something."😊

Arjun Replies with the brightest smile he could put on "it's nothing. Hope you enjoyed your flight."☺️

"Of course Annaya. But it was too long, however, it was worth it to see you two and I can't wait to see mum and dad!" Lisa replies hugging Arjun 😊

Lisa then turns to Tanvi and then hugs her as well.

Arjun checks the time and says "we have to get home. Your parents must be looking forward to seeing you."

Lisa nods and the trio walk off to the car.

(On the drive back home)

"So I was thinking while I was waiting for my bags we three should hang out tomorrow. What do you guys think?" Lisa asks

"I don't mind I don't have any lessons tomorrow. What about you arj?" Tanvi replies

"Same I don't have to teach tomorrow but I might have plans. I'll tell you at dinner Lisa. If I can't stay you both hang out I don't mind," Arjun replies 😓

Lisa says after thinking for a while "I want all of us to hang out it's been too long since we three went somewhere here in Delhi. If you can't do tomorrow let's do the day after."

"Let's see the plans haven't been confirmed yet..." Arjun says

"We're home!" Tanvi says cutting Arjun off😤😤

(In Arjun's room)

Arjun texts Pooja and when she replies and he calls her. They talk for a while and they decide to hang out and meet for lunch. After talking to Pooja, Arjun puts his phone down and starts to think about the melodious voice he heard earlier that day. Suddenly Arjun feels arms around his neck so he gets up and turns around to see Lisa.

"Lisa I thought you would be in your room," Arjun says a bit startled 😠

Confused Lisa says "I was but I wanted to hang out with you for a while so I came here. Why do you not want me in your room? And before you answer that question Amma said that dinner was going to be served in 10 minutes by the way." 😕

Arjun thinks for a second and replies "thanks for letting me know. And it's not that I don't want to hang out with you it's just I think you should be resting after that long flight." 😔

"Why do I have a feeling that you're lying to me?" Lisa asks her smile gone 🧐🧐

"I'm not!" Arjun says in a slightly more harsh tone 😠

"Did Tanvi tell you anything about me?" Lisa asks 🤔

"No why do you think that?" Arjun asks slightly guilty that he lied 😖

"For now please don't listen to anything she says about me. I will tell you and my parents tomorrow," Lisa replies

Arjun nods and replies "okay. And before you leave I got plans tomorrow so I won't be able to hang out with you and Tanvi. And whatever you want to tell me can you tell me at dinner. I'm meeting a friend for lunch."😬

Lisa nods and walks out of the room.

(The next day at lunch)

Arjun walks into the restaurant that Pooja had sent him and he soon finds her.

But when he walks closer he realises who she is and says "oh it's you 'miss over reactive'!" 😠

Pooja with a similar look on her face and says "and its mister 'genuine'"😠😠

Though the two first started to dislike each other they realised that they were quite similar. At the end of the day, they both agree to start dating for the sake of their siblings and because they knew they were the perfect match for each other. Though they didn't tell the other person that they thought this they somehow knew what they thought.🥴
