A few days passed. Neil was taking care of all the responsibilities. Arya's studies, restaurant, family - he was managing everything in her absence. On the other hand, Mini too, was quite engrossed in her project. She wanted to give her best, as it was her first international project after the mishap happened in her family. She was totally stress-free, because she knew that Neil was managing everything, for her. At night, they shared the happenings of the day with each other. Though they were away from each other, but always made sure that they were giving out peace and comfort to each other. Mini had told Neil about her new friends, who were her project fellows and Neil on the other hand, always used to talk about the restaurant's new event. (🤭)

On call...

Neil: You know what! Simpi is sooooo lazy. And Geeta ji, woh toh aise support karti hain usko jaise woh sabse innocent ho.

Mini: Neil Oberoi!! 🤦🏻‍♀️ It's okay yaar, I mean tum chhote se bache ho kya?

Neil: Bachi toh woh bhi nahi hai. Do you even know how unprofessional it is?

Mini: Okay fine, I accept.

Neil: 😐

Mini: Neil, calm down.

Neil: 😒

Mini: Ab tum weird faces mat banao and listen to me. Mujhe tumhe kuch batana hai.

Neil: Okay.

Mini: Woh.. maine tumhe bataya tha naa apne friends ke baare mein, I mean about Aryan and Tara...

Neil: Yeah.

Mini: So, Aryan.. he ... Heproposedmetodayandmainemanakardiya.

Neil: Sorry what? Mujhe kuch samajh nahi aaya...

Mini: Okay fine.. he proposed me today.

Neil: 🤷🏻🤦🏻🙄 And....

Mini: What? I refused obviously. But...

Neil: Hold on, kahin tumne...

Mini: Ofcourse not. Maine bahot pyaar se mana kiya usko but, you know uska reaction... It was strange.. woh bahot hi calmly react kar raha tha... Jaise usko pehle se pata ho ki mai.. pata nahi Neil, I'm not feeling well. Mujhe kuch galat lag raha hai, something strange.

Neil: So what do you want? Woh bhi uss RV ki tarah koi...

Mini: Neil!

Neil: Okay fine, I meant ki har insaan ek jaisa nahi hota Mini. He just confessed his feelings, tumne mana kiya and he accepted, yeh toh achi baat hai naa. Waise bhi tumne hi kaha tha he is a good person, so don't worry. Zyada mat socho, just 14 days more and then you'll back. So relax, hmm?

Mini: Hmm.

Neil: You take rest. Good night.

They disconnected the call.

Mini (to herself): I'm sorry Neil! But it's not so simple. There's one more thing that I need to tell you but..

Next morning, Mini and Arya on call..

Arya: Tumhe pata hai Veer Balika, Neil naa bahot ache se help karta hai padhai mein. Ab toh mai humesha usi se padhai karungi.

Mini: Kar lena, Neil ki Chhoti Madam.

Arya: 😁 Tumhara project kaisa chal raha hai? Aaj kahan jaogi tum photography ke liye.

Mini: Bahot acha chal raha hai Chhutanki. Aaj abhi pata nahi kahan jaana hai, woh toh office pahonch ke pata chalega. Lekin naa, yahan par bahot ache tourist spots hain. Mai soch rahi thi, jab tumhari vacations start hongi naa, toh sab log yahan aayenge. What say?

Arya: Wow!! Bahot maza aayega. Par abhi toh meri vacation bahot door hain. Aur abhi mujhe school jaana hai. Tumhari baaton ke chakkar mein mai late ho gayi toh?

Mini: Acha?

Arya: Aur nahi toh kya? Tum toh so jaogi abhi, lekin mujhe school jaana hai, bye bye. (Time gap of 2 and a half hours between both the countries).

Mini: Chal oye drama company! Bye!

Arya: 🤭

Mini called Sukh.

Sukh: Mini!! Itni subah subah kaise uth gayi tu?

Mini: Arrey woh bas aise hi. Tera kaam kaisa chal raha hai?

Sukh: Sab theek chal raha hai. Tu bata? Project ..

Mini: Project ko chhod Sukh. I need a help.

Sukh: Is it something serious?

Mini: Yeah!

Sukh: Okay, bol na.

Mini told her about the letter and the blank calls.

Sukh: What?

Mini: Not just this, but mujhe aisa lag raha hai koi mujhe follow kar raha hai Sukh. I don't know, it might be just ...

Sukh: Are you crazy? Itni badi baat ho gayi aur tum dono ne humein bataya bhi nahi. Very nice.

Mini: Sukh..

Sukh: Tu rukk, mai Bobby se baat karti hoon. Ho sakta hai unka koi friend ho wahan Jordan mein jo shayad iss matter mein koi help kar sake. Infact, ho sakta hai kya, hoga zaroor. I don't understand inke itne saare dost kaise hain (true that).

Mini: Woh hai hi itna pyara sa. 😁

Sukh: Haan woh toh hai ..

Mini: Umm hmm 😏

Sukh: Shut up! Tune Neil ko bataya iss baare mein?

Mini: Nahi yaar, woh waise hi itna pareshan hai. Bolta nahi but I know, mere liye mujhse bhi zyada tensed hai. Ab mai usko yeh bataungi toh it would be very difficult for him ..

Sukh: Tujhe kya ho gaya hai? Itni important baat tune usko nahi batayi? Pagal.

Mini: Par

Sukh: Par war kuch nahi. Tu sunn, mai Bobby se baat karti hoon. Jaise hi kuch baat hoti hai toh hum Neil ke paas jaa ke usse discuss kar lenge. Okay?

Mini: Okay. Thanks yaar.

Sukh: Thanks apni pocket mein rakh.

Mini: Pocket nahi hai mere paas.

Sukh: Toh wallet mein rakh le. 😁

Mini: Kuch bhi. 😁

In the evening (almost night), Bobby, Sukh and Preet went to Neil, to talk about the matter and found him a bit impatient and tensed.

Bobby: Neil Bhai, kya hua, aap pareshan lag rahe ho.

Neil: Nahi, nothing bro.

Sukh: Hum sab friends hain naa? Toh sab milke solve karte hain. I know kuch toh hua hai.

Neil: Mini is not picking up the call. Generally hum iss time se pehle baat karte hain but.. I don't know, kuch ajeeb sa lag raha hai.

Sukh: Lekin meri toh aaj subah hi baat huyi thi usse, she was totally fine.

Neil: Subah toh Arya se bhi baat huyi thi but...

As I said before, there won't be anything repetitive in this track. So guess what will happen next. 😬

Also, if you're thinking that Aryan is behind all this rubbish, then you are.... Absolutely right.

Happy Reading. ❤️
