Precap :-

Meanwhile I was trying to dial Vyom's number trying my best not to panick.

"Where are you Vyom"

Continued :-

After a few minutes, bhaiya came running up to me.

"Karishma.." he said, words broken up by gasps for air  "are you.. are you sure Vyom called you today?"

"y-yes bhaiya why do you ask that?"

"Because I checked at the information desk, airline counter and everywhere, the only flight from Srinagar to Delhi landed 8 hours ago."

"But bhaiya, how is this possible, Vyom called me about 5 hours ago.. He was about to board his flight."

"Kashi you must be dreaming.." Bhaiya said very calmly. His tone however alarming.

"No! No I'm not bhaiya. I am not daydreaming. He, he called me and we talked, wait, he also texted me.. See"

I opened my whatsapp to show bhaiya the messages Vyom sent me.

He frowned, "How is this possible.. The airline staff..." He paused to take a  deep breathe. Just then his phone vibrated with a message notification, he cast a short glance at it. The lines on his forehead seemed to ease a bit.

"Kashi, I have informed Haseena, and my team as well. Abhi ghar chalo, come"

"Nahi bhaiya" I spoke as tears spilled from my eyes, "I wont go.. I need to find Vyom"

"Kashi..." before bhaiya could say anything, I really, REALLY had a breakdown and I hugged him tight..

"He said he's coming to meet me bhaiya.. how can all of it be fake" I said while sobbing.

"Kashi we are at the airport, ghar chalo, I'll find him don't worry"

Realizing his words, yes we were at the airport, and people passing by were giving me empathetic as well as strange looks.

"Okay, let's go" I said, wiping off my tears and fixing my hair.

We sat in his car and drove off to our house.

Throughout the car ride, I dialed Vyom's number multiple times, but he didnt pick up, and after a while it even said his phone was switched off.

However, it didn't go unnoticed by me, that bhaiya, not just once but twice checked his phone secretly, as if trying to hide some notification from me.

Anyway, right now my main focus was Vyom.

The car halted before the main gate of our house. I hurriedly went inside and switched on the lights.

And, boy..

The first thing I heard was "Hello Karishma, missed me?"

There was he, face adorned with his playful smirk.

Well what was going on??? I looked around and saw Haseena, standing near the kitchen, flashing a big dimple-smile of hers. The house was all decorated around.

I just stood there, mouth wide open as I tried to digest the reality.

Bhaiya, came from behind me and whispered in my ears "How was the surprise?"

And that's when everything made a little more sense.

"We just planned a little mischievous surprise for you Kashi" Haseena said.

Vyom who was just standing there and adoring me, approached me with short steps.

I ran upto him and, pulled him by the collar, giving a light slap on his cheek.

"Ow, Karishma!" he said, shocked by my sudden action.

"Vyom singh, you really scared me" I said pulling him further down by his collar.

"I.. I didn't mean to.." he tried to speak some words, mischief clearly evident in his tone.

"How dare you pull such a prank on me" I said with the same hot-headed energy.

"It was not my idea, blame Haseena for it" Mr. Dramatic spoke.

My angry gaze turned towards Haseena, who's expressions after seeing me changed and she ran more towards the kitchen door to save her life from me.

"Hum toh bas..."

I stood right in front of her, looking straight in her eyes, crossing my arms infront of my chest.
"Kya?" I urged her to speak something, if she wanted to, in her defense.

"um.. wo Karishma.. hum to bas.." and with that she burst out laughing "..thodi kheech rahe the aapki"

I looked at her in sheer disbelief, how could MY BESTFRIEND SWITCH SIDES.

"Aap kabse Vyom ke side ho gayi aap meri hai Haseena" I said

"Hum jaante hai baba, wo to bas jab hume pata chala ki Vyom wapis Delhi aa raha hai to humne turant Anubhav ko call karke ye prank karna ka decide kiya. And then we texted Vyom about it.." she said, in between giggles.

"I hate all of you" I said, and sat down grumpily on the sofa.

Vyom came towards me and bent on his knees.
"Acha baba sorry" he said.

"Jaise tumne humara ghar decorate kiya, waise hi humne tumhare liye surprise me ghar decorate kiya tha"
I told him

"What! Really?"

"Yes." I turned to look away from him.

"Mere liye to kabhi ghar nahi decorate kiya" Bhaiya chirped in between, his possessive self visible.

"urgh, shut up Anubhav, unko baat karne do" Haseena said.

"Acha come, mere saath ghar chalo, let's see what all you have done for him" Vyom said, pulling me towards him.

I widened my eyes and gestured him that bhaiya was in the living room as well, I would obviously not like to be caught all romantic and lovey-dovey in front of my brother.

Vyom let out a slight cough and said, "Mai jaa raha hun, tum aa jana"

He went, and afterwards Haseena literally pushed me towards his house as well..

When I entered, Vyom was still standing in the living room, in awe of the decorations I did for him.

"I love you" he said and pulled me into a quick kiss.

Breaking it, I replied "I love you too, and I missed you"

The events that followed included us cooking pasta for ourselves, and talking about everything we did for the past few weeks.

He told me about his training, I told him about my studies.

We had a really good time with each other..

And then Vyom said "Waise Karishma, I would want you to meet someone...."
