To Aarna patel, he was the kind of man she wanted to stay away yet she desired him - dark, tough, extreme, controlling, commanding, and a billionaire.
To jayraj Singh Rathod, she is the kindest and yet most feisty woman he ever met, a ball of spitf...
The next morning when I woke up, Jayraj was not at home.
There was upma on the stovetop. With a note, I read the note, knowing he made upma, I thought of not eating but saw the next line and I smiled unknowingly. He knew me so well, Only If I knew him as well.
You know him, but you don't know a few things about him.
I ran my hands through the fine handwriting,

"WHAT DID HE do?" Ria asked, after ordering the coffee for both of us.
"How do you know?"
"You were happy, and bubbly when you came to function and when you left you were all dukhi aatma(sad soul), and there are only a few people who can make you that sad."
"He slept with Jiva."
"What the f*ck? When?" She yelled, and everyone around us stared at her.
"Keep it down woman and I don't know."
"What do you mean? Didn't you ask him? And what the hell you are still doing at his place? We are going to our apartment from here."
Why would I move back to the apartment because of a fight?
"I don't want to leave him over this."
"Aarna, no d*ck is that special, big or not."
What's gotten into her today?
"Ria, I love him."
"Just because you love him that doesn't mean you will deal with his infidelity."
What the hell? It was my time to yell but I controlled it at the last moment, "Wait, infidelity?"
"He cheated on you."
He would never do that to me, heck doesn't even flirt with anyone, cheating is far behind. He didn't flirt with me even, he just came with an arrangement.
"No, he didn't."
"You are a very confusing woman, first you said he slept with Jiva and now you are saying he didn't cheat on you."
Oh... okay.
"He slept with Jiva years ago."
"Okay."
"Okay? It's not okay. She dressed me up, gave me a warning to not embarrass 'her friend' and asked what I have that other lacks, sounded like what I have that she lacks by the way."
She looked at me to continue, the way I was speaking and confessing, looked like I was sipping alcohol and not coffee.
"He didn't tell me a thing about her. And when I was upset about it, he said I overreacted, like can you imagine, he is the most Jealous person I have ever known, the nerve of this man, hypocrite."
