Apki Nazro ne samjha x i deserve fair chance to breath, to love

3. First Date

Ram was waiting for her. Anxiety Pill, Acidity Pill and variety pills were ready to go in his stomach.

Priya came near table. Ram pulled chair for her. Priya was confused how to react to this gesture.

Ram: Hi

Priya: Hi

Ram: Priya, I am extremely sorry for yesterday's incident. I should have asked you whether you were interested or not. I shouldn't have spoken nasty things.

Priya: It's okay Mr. Kapoor. I am used to people interfering in my life, trying to take decisions for me. My father tried to fix my marriage without asking me many times. So it's okay.

Ram: It was just a date. Please don't compare me with your father. Shivi told me about him. I..

Priya stopped him and changed the topic.

Priya: Mr. Kapoor, I am hungry. Can we place an order?

Ram understood her hesitation and called waiter. 

Ram: What you want?

Priya: Upma gee ke sath.

Ram: You are hungry and you want just upma?

Priya: Ha

Ram: Ok. Waiter bring my regular course and Ghee upma milega na ?

Waiter: Yes sir.

Ram (clearing his voice): Hmm Do you like food?

Priya: Who doesn't?

Ram: Ha, You run bakery too so you must be foodie. Priya, actually I don't know what questions I should ask you so you can start.

Priya: Tell me things or people you love most.

Ram: My family, Adi and Barish. Humm one more thing Food.

Priya: Barish I remember.

Ram: I know you hate barish but we have one thing in common we love our families and can do any possible thing for them.

Priya: What you do in your ideal time? I know you are busy but what are your hobbies ?

Ram: Movies. I love to see happy endings. Some fictional characters are perfect some are flawless I love to watch their journey. Some stories have ideal love which I never get. That 2-3 hours I feel detached from real world.

Priya: Never get it?

Ram: First I lost my father. Mom, Shivi, Shubhu love me but his death created huge vacuum. After that my girlfriend married to someone else. I never moved on because I wanted to keep that in memories, in my heart. I choose Illusion to keep myself happy. Now I have no option due to mom's conditions. If we get married assume that I moved on. Don't tell anyone that I haven't moved on. It may affect her marriage and my friends hates her. I told you my only secret please keep it to yourself.

Priya: Thank you for sharing this. I like your honesty. Even I had my past. It is so bad that I don't want to keep single memory of it. My ex and my sister...

Ram: Priya, Shivi told me everything. Why do you live sadly because of that idiot ? He is monkey who couldn't understand gem.

Priya : What ?

Ram: It's a proverb Priya and whatever I heard from Shivi I can call you gen or wonder woman. College, Bakery, Blind school, house.

Priya: It's normal. Aap mujhe Chane ke zhad pe chada rahe hain.

Ram: No

(Almost 15 minutes lapsed and dinner arrived)

Priya was confused after seeing his regular order and asked Is someone is coming for dinner.
