Jhanvi's POV:-

Flipping through the album of photographs and drinking my hot chocolate as if consuming alcohol while sitting at the terrace right now I am reveling some of my best captured memories on a chilly night.
There are so many photos, me dressed up for fancy dress competition, my birthday celebrations , my graduation , one where I just learnt how to ride a cycle and many more.
The ringing of my phone broke the silence and I picked up the call without looking at the caller ID.

" Hello, am I speaking to Mrs . Malhotra?"

"I am sorry , wrong number " as soon as I said this , I heard the person from the other side .

"Are you sure , baby ?" This man doesn't need to be introduced yet let me do the formality.
Aryan Malhotra is calling me .
I was speechless for a moment and my mouth hung open because of his flirting .

"Are you there Jhanvi ?"

"Yeah , I am . Wasn't expecting you to call me this late. " I replied .

"Aw I am hurt."

"Aryan?"

"Hmm"

"Did you call me this late at night just to flirt with me over the phone?" I asked him.

"No, uhh , yes , no I don't mean it that way ." He almost panicked.

"Relax Kaddu , I am just kidding."

"Don't say that word . And yes there is something I wanted to ask you about." This caught my attention.

Does he know that you got detention for beating up a boy in school.

What rubbish !

"Well uh.... Would you go on a date with me tomorrow ?" He blurted out and I can sense the unsure tone in his question.

Oh, my God !!! A date with him !
Wow .

"Yes ." I replied in one word.

"Done then , be ready by six ."

"Six it is ." I say.

"Uh ... Jhanvi it's six in the morning ."

What ?
Tell him you hate to wake up early .

"This early ? Are you going to take me to Antarctica to have dinner with penguins ?"

"No but I want to spend a whole day with you before you know we get all busy in the wedding functions and get married ..."

Aww...

"OK . Done , see you tomorrow morning ." I cut him mid sentence . This is just my excitement speaking .

What going on a date with your fiance ?

Yup , absolutely.

"OK then I'll let you catch up on your sleep now and will pick you up from your place. "

"Sure." I said after a pause.

"Goodnight Aryan ."

"Goodnight Jhanvi and remember dream of me ."

"OK I will bye now!" With this I ended the call giggling to myself.
The time in my cellphone shows 11:25PM . Damnit . I need to hit the bed .

Tomorrow is my date . Wow.
I went back to my room after washing the hot chocolate cup and put an alarm for 5 :00 AM in the morning .
Soon I was carried away in the train called sleep.

The ringing of my alarm blaring the noise in the whole room woke me up and I sat up straight in the bed. I quickly bolted towards the bathroom and took a nice shower and washed my hair. Then it was time for the most annoying question .
What do I wear ?
I decided to wear a red top with small white coloured hearts and a blue jeans with my all black Converse. Hmm. This will do . As I stand in front of the mirror I blow dried my hair and let them be open , applied a little bit of foundation and loose powder and a light pink lipstick . I took my chapstick in my slingbag .
I rushed towards the kitchen and saw our cook was preparing breakfast .
