....Ara's POV..

"Ara, sweety there's someone at the door for you."

"I'll just check mum."

As I opened the door I was greeted with a bouquet of red roses. I moved it and to say I was irritated would be the understatement of the year, Eric was the one behind it. Like seriously doesn't he have something better to do.

Ladies and Gentlemen meet Eric Xavier, we were in college together and since then he is revealing his undying love for me. No doubt he is hot but I don't believe in relationships and stuffs. For me life is supposed to be simple, I basically can't deal with complications, its my sisters part. "Have you fallen in love with my refusals Eric.?" I asked "because this is gonna be the 9th time I'll refuse you."

"Aww Araa don't be this mean, give the boy a chance."

My mom piped in. "Mom,don't!!!" I warned her.

"If that means seeing you every time then maybe yeah." Eric tried to reason. A smile was threatening to appear.

"What do you want Eric,?" I asked further opening the door for him to come it. Okay yeah until now he was out. "You" was his simple reply while keeping the flowers on the table. Eric is actually handling his dads business so he is in Boston only once a week and that once a week I surely have a bouquet of flowers at my door.

"You know I can't do this now", I tried to explain him.

"I can wait."

"How long Eric, how long?"

"If a life can suffice the requirement, so be it."

How can someone love someone this much.

Now if you are thinking I am a bitch then let me tell you I was cheated on, my boyfriend Sean cheated on me with my own best friend and the worst is 'Eric, is Sean's elder brother by 1 year.' Now temme am I a bitch. Anyway I am "Araa, I used to believe in the hype of life but after some incident I left being that but I am the same with my sister, she is basically my better half my twin, she is in paris studying fashion while after college I decided to go with event management in Boston. I live with my parents. I hate parties and I hate relationships while my sister is total opposite. She believes that there is fun in everything."

While I was in my thoughts Eric's phone rang and he picked up while from the corner of my eye I could see my mom asking me to give Eric a chance. It was an emergency so Eric had to leave with a promise to visit next week. Now I couldn't help but smile. I turned towards my room so that I could change and leave for my internship. While going up I stopped at the kitchen, "Mom, Sam does not get to know about this incident? Right." I asked in a manner that spoke that don't even think of telling her. My mom nodded and I left.

At night, I called up Sam and told her everything that happened today, yeah I know I told my mom not to but as I said she is my better half,

"Aww, seriously Aru, are you crazy girl, Eric is trying to quote you from last one year and you are being a total bitch."

"What, you know everything, Sam."

"So what Aru, that dum asshole can move ahead and you can't."

"No swearing Sam."

"Whatever!" And with that she hung the phone.

Within 5 mins I received a text from Sam, see.

"Give him a chance Araa, Give Eric a chance. -xxSamaira."
"I will, Sam someday I will.- Araaxx"
