Aroosh's POV:

I was sleeping and again woke up with the ringing of the alarm. I always wake up with the ringing of that damn alarm. I checked the time, it was 1 pm.

I went downstairs and saw that dad was already there. I greeted him with a hug.

"How are you Aroosh?" He asked.

"I am fine dad! How are you?"

"I am good." He said smiling at me.

"Aroosh, go and bring groceries." Mom said entering the hall.

"But mom.."

"Aroosh, be a good boy. Now go and do what mom is saying." Dad said cutting me inbetween.

"Ok mom, give me the list." I finally agreed.

Mom gave me a bag which included the list of the items to bring along with a the money. She even asked to get some nice clothes for myself.

I took my car keys and head towards my black car. My car was very small one. It was 5 seater car. As I said before, I was not that much rich, but soon I will become rich. I used car because, mom had given me the list of too much groceries as well as she asked me to buy so many clothes for me. When I denied that I don't want it, then she played her mother card.

I head towards the grocery store and bought all the dishes required. After grocery shopping, I went to mall. There I selected dresses of my choice. I didn't bought too many as I can't spend too much money of my mom.

I settled all the items on my backseat and settled myself in the driving seat. I switched on the car and made my way towards my house. At that time, it was raining heavily.

I was about to pass a college, when I saw another car coming towards my direction in a very wierd way. Is the driver drunk? As he was coming towards me, I turned the car to another direction and saw a girl standing under the shades of a tree. Oh shit!

The car was about to hit her, suddenly I switched pressed the break and the car stopped. I move out of the car just to check that if she is alright or not.

"Excuse me miss, are you okay?" I asked going towards her and she glared at me.

"Are you blind? Can't you see that a person is standing here?" She yelled at me.

"Excuse me, don't shout at me. That car was about to hit me so I turned my way. Later on, I came to know that you were standing here so, I pressed the break." I explained her the whole matter.

"Ok fine! Now get lost." She said rolling her eyes.

"Why are you rude?"

"Don't ask me anything!" She yelled again.

"Okay, but where were you going now?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"I could help you."

"How can I trust you?"

"Ok fine, then stay here!"

"Fine, you can go."

"For your kind information, there is no cab or taxi available now." I said and went towards my car. I was about to open the door, when she called me.

"Umm.. excuse me?" She shouted from back and I stopped there.

"Yes?"

"Umm.. actually, no cab is available now, so if you are having no problem, so can you drop me at home?"

"Fine, as you wish." I replied and opened the passenger seat's door for her. At first, she hesitated bit at the very next moment, she sat there.

I went towards the driving seat and sat there. I put the seat belt and turned towards her and saw that, she had already put the seat belt. I asked her address and she gave me her address.

"Are you studying in that college?" I asked while driving.

"Yes actually, I am studying for becoming a lawyer in my future." She said.

"Waoh! That's great! All the best for your future."

"Hmm.. thanks. By the way, what are you doing?" She asked.

"I am a business man. My company sells earpods."  I replied.

"Okay, and what's your name?" She asked.

"I am Aroosh Singhania. What about you?"

"Payal Mehta." She replied.

After a little bit of gossip, we reached our destination.

"We reached you house, Miss. Payal." I said.

"Yes, thanks for your help." She replied.

"Okay, whenever you need any help just remember me. Okay? Umm.. do one thing, give your number. It will be great." I replied, even I don't know what I was saying.

"Why do you need my number?" She asked while laughing.

"Umm.. just saying. Bye!" I said and turned the car quickly.

I was really embarrassed. Even, I had never spoke to any women straight forward. I went to my house, but kept on thinking about her.

"What took you so long?" Mom asked as I entered my house.

"Mom, actually... Umm... It was raining." I said hesitately.

"Okay, did you do all the shopping?" She asked while looking at the bags carried by me.

"Yes mom, you can check." I replied.

"Okay, thank you." She said.

I went to my room and changed my dress as they were a little wet. After changing, I threw myself on my bed and closed my eyes for sometime, but kept on thinking about her. I don't know why I am behaviour like this? I never felt this much attracted towards someone. Anyhow, she is not a perfect girl for me. She is very rude. I must maintain my distance.

Payal's POV:

He dropped me home and I went inside still thinking about him asking my number.

"What took you so long, daughter?" Mom asked as I entered the hall.

"Mom, it was raining and also the cab was not available." I replied.

"So, how did you came here?"

"Umm.. Priya helped me." I replied while entering the kitchen to grab some apples.

"Should I ask her?" She asked as she  entered the kitchen.

"Yes, you can." I replied.

"Okay, but first dry your hair otherwise, you will catch fever and we would have to spend pound's in your medicines." She said giving me a towel.

"Mom, an apple a day, keeps the doctor away." I said and took the towel and started stroking it with my hair.

"Okay, now go and change." She said.

I went upstairs, changed my clothes and fell on my bed. I thought to take some rest. The moment I closed my eyes, his face occurred in my mind. I opened my eyes and closed again, but his face kept on occuring. I never felt this much attracted towards someone. Not even with Itish. He was very sweet. It was me who was behaving ride with me. I thought not to think about him, as I don't want to repeat that same mistake I did earlier. I laughed the moment, I remembered him asking my number. But I think he is not my type of guy. I must maintain my distance.

Thinking about all those moments, I slept into deep slumber.
