It's been four days since the get together at my place and Rahul and I haven't spoken to each other,  nothing really happened but he didn't call and i don't want to intrude him. I was in college working on a project with Dev and this project holds 40% of the marks so I'm investing more time in it.  When Kiara came running and asked me to come with her.
"Kiaru at least tell me where are you taking me? " i asked following her and she stopped at the end of the floor near balcony and pointed towards road with a huge smile and there i saw KL RAHUL in Disguise outside the campus resting his body in his car . When he saw me looking at him he waved at me and just then i received a call from him? "I know you are super busy but come down and spend some time with me" "Ohh so now you have time to come. Why didn't you call me in last few days? " "i can ask the same to you. " He said "I'm waiting Harshi, hurry up and come" i agreed to him and went back to class room to get my bag and inform Dev "Dev, gotta go.  We can work on this in home and then we meet again tomorrow to discuss it and make changes" "Thankgod,  finally  i can go home.  I thought that you'll  keep me in college for whole night and make me finish this" " ha ha ha  really funny" i said picking my bag and Dev followed me " Btw what's the thing that's  making you change you mind of completing the project? ""I'm  meeting a friend, that's it" "Friend or boyfriend? " he asked me and i just chuckled "Stop talking rubbish otherwise your boy friend will have to wait for his Boyfriend because I'll  cancel the plan and sit here to finish the project " "Okay okay sorry"  it took us five minutes to reach the gate when Dev saw Rahul waving at me "oh so he's the friend.not Bad, and if you're not dating him I'm ready to breakup and choose him" dep said teasing me and we both just started laughing at his silly joke
"We both know you love Renil just too much to break up with him. Anyway bye" "bye and tomorrow i don't want you to waste time and work on project " "I can die out of shock after hearing this, we both know who actually wastes the time" i said walking towards Rahul. As soon as i reached to him he hugged me and i swear i heard him sniffing me which only maid me smile "Where are you taking me? " i asked him breaking the hug and moving across the car to enter the car "Wherever you want " he said entering the car
"Surprise me" i said for which he responded with shaking his head
"Btw where are you coming from?"
"Oh i was in practice,  coach wanted me to practice hitting Yorkers more" i nodded my head and said " That explains why you are stinking " followed by a laugh "Oh please I'm not.  I took bath and even put deo after that. It's  you who's stinking " i just laughed more at his reaction "Btw who's the guy you were talking to? " he asked me and i sensed some seriousness in his tone and thought of pulling his leg "Oh that guys,  he is Dev.  You know Rahul i have got a Huge crush on him" as soon as i said that Rahul's expression changed and a creeze appeared in between his brows
"What's so special in him? " he asked  me " Special?  He is special that's what special in him.  The way he smiles,  the way he talks my god i'll die someday for him" i said with all the acting skills i had and Rahul just rolled his eyes "Then why didn't you go with him? " "i was with him only from past 3 hours but then you came" as soon as completed my sentence car came to halt "I'm sorry to disturb your Romance,  you can go if you want " i had my eyes bulging out at his reaction but then i smiled "Rahul are you jealous? " "Huh why would i be? " "i don't know maybe Because you liked Dev too" i said in a vary serious tone for which Rahul looked at me for few seconds and then we both started laughing .
Rahul took me to his favorite place to have his favorite burger "mmm..  This is so yumm.  " i said just after taking the first bite " I know,  that's why it's  my favorite"
"How did you find this place? " "Harshi,  i have lived here for half my life.  I know many places which you have no clue about " he said and i rolled my eyes and concentrated on enjoying my Burger. After five minutes when i looked up i saw Rahul looking at me with a huge smile on his face
"What? " "Nothing." he replied and i just  shook my head "Let's go then drop me home" "Not yet Harshi,  it's  my day to surprise you" he took my hand in his and pulled me with him in a small lane beside the burger place "Are you going to murder me Rahul? " i asked him as we passed through the lane "No,  I'm kidnapping you and will keep you with me forever" "He maa mata ji, Indian cricketer is a criminal too " i said dramatically for which he just passed a chortel and i smiled remembering what he said earlier, within two minutes we reached a pan shop "Dont tell me you eat tobacco and shit too " i asked him all shocked "How dramatic you are Man? They even serve Kulfi" he answered my question "Oohhh" i said and he handed me a kulfi and man that's the tastiest Kulfi ever.
After two hours we are finally at my Society and i got down and was walking towards the entrance when Rahul called from behind and hugged me  "Good night Harshi" "Good night Rahul" with that he broke the hug and placed a kiss on my forehead and left me standing there stunned.

It's  been a week and a routine of Rahul to pick me from college and then we spend some time together then he drops and leaves or come to my place and chill.  And same way he's  my place and we are watching movie when he said "I'm  going to mumbai tomorrow, Won't be back at least for a week" just the thought of not seeing him for a week pained my heart but i didn't let it show on my face "okay,  but why Mumbai? " "Because BCCI office is in mumbai and T20 world cup is also coming so training sessions and all" he informed me and i just nodded and continue watching movie, after ten minutes Rahul got up and said he's  leaving very Rudely " What happened? "  "nothing,  i gotta go that's it " he said and started moving towards the door when i held his had "what the fuck Rahul?  What's wrong? Tell me " "what's  wrong is that no matter how much i try to give  my time and attention to you, you never care.  you don't  give a fuck how i feel, i told you I wont be able to meet you for a week and you didn't say anything " "what do you want me to say?  It's  your work, obviously you'll  go.  and about you giving me time and attention. I never asked for it. " i responded and he nodded and left.
I don't know what happened to me, i shouldn't have said that last part but him acting like this pissed me and i also said shit.  I should have stopped him or something but i didn't,  i just couldn't. And he'll be leaving tomorrow for a week. 
"shit" i cursed under my breath when kiara came "What happened? Why did he leave  so furiously? " "we had an argument" then i told her everything and she just hit me hard on my head "why would you say that? He likes you and he wanted you to react or feel the way he's feeling about not seeing you for a week.  Harshu you are mad. " she yelled at me "what should i do now? " "call him" she said Rolling her eyes , i tried calling him but he didn't pick so the only sensible thing i could think was to pick my car keys  and go to his place and that's exactly what i did.  After one hour i was outside Rahul's  place "fuck I'm  crazy.  I shouldn't have come.  It's already 10:30 in night. " i talked to myself when  i suddenly heard barking and i jumped because of sudden noise.  And then i saw simba near the door with a girl  "I guess simba knows you but i don't. So may i know? " "I'm  sorry to disturb you at this time,  I'm here to meet Rahul " "oh he's  not coming home tonight." "why? "
"he's  staying with mayank tonight as they'll  be leaving for mumbai tomorrow " "Ohh.. Okay" "Wanna come in? "  " no. It's  already late and i don't want to disturb you" "oh you wouldn't be,  i anyway needed a partner to drink with me.  Come in" i walked in as simba trailed after me "I'm  sorry but i still don't know you" "Ohh my bad, I'm  Harshita. Rah_" "so you are Harshita.  Man i have heard lot about you.  He doesn't shut up about you" she said "and you are? " "Oh I'm  Bhavana,  his sister.  What was so important that you came at this time" "we kinda had an argument so i just wanted to sort out" i told her and he just shook her head "you don't  have to be sorry for anything. I know it must be him who started it. " "yeah... You're right.  It was him" i said as she handed me a glass of wine "look,  i know him.  Anyways, ignore him and enjoy this wine with me" she said and laughed a lil.
After an hour we both were down a botle and i was loving her company , she's  so sweet and funny. We talked about everything except guys,  i was meeting her as a girl and not his brother's friend.
I felt an instant connection with her and we literally laughed whole night and i didn't even think of Rahul even for a second.
