K A I R A
[ the next day, evening ]
I was drawing a random sketch of a design stuck in my mind for a long time when my phone beeped beside me. Raising my eyes off the piece, I kept the colour pencil away and picked up my phone.
It was a text from an unknown number.
Heyy!
6:08 PM
I stared at the number for a long time. It was unknown and unfamiliar. I finally replied back.
Hi, sorry who's that?
6:10 PM
My phone instantly beeped with the reply from the texter, as if he/she was waiting for my reply desperately.
Itna jaldhi bhul gayi mujhe ;)
6:10 PM
I mean you could have atleast remembered me for a whole 24 hours. I just bought you coffee last evening
6:11 PM
An unknown smile formed on my lips as I texted back.
Krishh?
6:11 PM
He replied back:
Yup. How many other boys bought you coffee? ;)
6:11 PM
I couldn't stop smiling.
Me:
How did you even get my number?
6:12 PM
Krishh:
I told you, I have my ways, sweetheart.
6:12 PM
Me:
And the reason you messaged me is...?
6:12 PM
Krishh:
Try again, sweetheart. You could be politer.
6:13 PM
I rolled my eyes as if he could see me.
Me:
May I know the sweet reason why you decided to text me at this odd hour? 😀
6:14 PM
Krishh:
Wow, I liked that. And the emoji made it even politer.
6:14 PM
Me:
I still didn't get my answer?
6:14 PM
Krishh:
It's simple. I missed you.
6:15 PM
My eyes almost bulged out of their socket in shock. That escalated... quickly.
Krishh:
Don't freak out yet.
6:16 PM
I'm kidding.
6:16 PM
I just thought we could meet again, hang out sometime, you know?
6:17 PM
If you don't mind that is.
6:18 PM
I couldn't stop staring at the spam of messages he'd sent. Even though on text, I could just hear his voice and picture his expressions.
Was he.... nervous?
I was just going to reply back when my mom entered. I swear Indian parents just couldn't knock.
"Hey," she smiled. I greeted her back.
"Everyone's coming over for a dinner at Aryamman Uncle's house. It's a last minute plan and we leave soon. Get ready." She informed.
