"I can't believe you are chatting with Karthik when I am dying with nervousness." I commented in the middle of taking deep breaths.

"It was kind of a historical moment. How can I cut it off so soon? And I don't understand why you are nervous." She said smiling at her phone.

"I am meeting his parents if you forgot." I mumbled and moved to take her phone away, but she moved back a little and finally put it away.

"Because of your threat, he is going to be here for dinner and not in the evening. Now, you have plenty of time to get ready. And if they were not happy about you, then they wouldn't have agreed to come here." She said looking straight at me.

"Just wait how I will behave when you feel nervous during your time." I glared at her, but she just smirked taking her phone again.

"My marriage? Wait! I will ask Karthik to attend my wedding even if he settles abroad." She mumbled typing and I immediately moved to sit beside her.

If what I saw today is true and I still have better instincts than her, I am sure the reply to that will not be fun like she is expecting.

"Yes!" I screamed, seeing his reply and I know for sure he got shocked seeing that text.

"I am already kind of confused with his reply asking as if my marriage is some impossible thing to happen and I am more confused about your reaction." She frowned typing more and within a few minutes threw her phone away on the bed.

"You may give me or anyone a good advice for our relationships, but you can't do the same for you." I explained.

"What is so good if I understand my thoughts and feelings clearly? Everything went downhill because of that, right. It is better to cautious than to make a mistake twice." She mumbled looking away.

"Even you felt different because of his actions?" I asked, feeling shock as she acted as if completely oblivious to everything hearing her replies.

"Of course! But I made sure to not get too involved in those thoughts and gave a reality check to myself every time. Within a few days he will be back to normal and by the time we join our college and he gets busy with his preparation, it will be like the trip never happened." She replied shrugging.

Why did I think it will not affect her much and her feelings were sorted long ago? First love is never easy, isn't it? And to top of that she was made to be his girlfriend. Will it be really easy for her like she is saying or did she get better at hiding things even from me?

"You need to get ready." She pointed at the clock and I groaned moving back to the mirror.

"I forgot about everything because of you." I complained applying make-up, while she walked towards the attire I will be wearing today.

"And I know you are very grateful for that." She said smiling and helped me to get ready before leaving the room to help Mom.

I wish she can stay with me during these next two years and we all asked her but I understand her hesitation too. No matter what, she will need her own privacy and I am at least happy that she is comfortable enough to come and stay with me like this sometimes.

"Oh my god! He is leaving no stone unturned to show that you guys just met recently by coincidence. He actually asked your Mom whether I am your sister." She said rushing into my room after some time.

"Is he serious? My Mom will get more suspicious when she knows I will not go anywhere without you." I said shaking my head.

"Exactly! Now, everyone is teasing him. I couldn't stop my laugh and rushed here to take you there so that he can be saved." She said laughing.
