14. ARCADE

• Ahaan

It was half past twelve when kritika came all ready in a beige cargo pants with black crop top with her hair tied up in a bun with a white claw clip.

She was looking simply stunning. While I was in an all black outfit.

As she reached us, ishaan spoke

"Okay, now so much of boring conversations and boring days"

Kritika looked at me with a shy expression on the mention of boring days.

Meanwhile ishaan continued,

"Guys let's go to the arcade today, we have to make the most of our time so yes let's just have a few game battles"

"Shit okay this will be crazy" aarav replied to ishaan.

Ishaan and aarav bonded so well, they felt like real brothers.

"Sounds fun"
Kritika replied.

"But I think we should just chill at home" I said.

"Are you crazy bhai, all three of us love the idea, you are so wierd"

Everyone laughed.

"We are going to the arcade" ishaan repeated.

Sometimes younger siblings are a pain in the ass. Stupid.

"Oh god, no one listens to me". Kritika chuckled at my emotional act but of course it was decided that we will be going to the arcade.

An hour later, all four of us went into the car parking after having breakfast made by mumma.

"Okay i will drive bhai" ishaan said with extreme confidence.

"Oh my god, you're so funny ishaan, do you want us to never get home back safely hunh?"

"Oh hello I could drive you directly to London, don't ever try to underestimate my driving skills"

"Talk to my hand you bitch" I spoke and we both laughed.

I got in the driving seat while ishaan forced kritika to sit on the passenger seat and she finally gave up because ishaan is very stubborn.

Soon, i started driving.

Ishaan and aarav really are a headache.

They were literally fighting to play songs of their choice. My god.

We reached the arcade and got unlimited access for each game available there. Ofcourse. I don't like any interruptions between whatever I am doing.

"Okay I think we must divide ourselves into teams and whoever loses at the end of the day, will be given weird and stupid dares and of course a dinner hosted by them"

Aarav said and ishaan agreed with him, where was this brotherhood when deciding what songs to play.

"Kritika is with me" Aarav said.

He said and waited for my reaction like i would fight to take kritika with me and ishaan smirked at aarav 's statement.

I would want kritika in my team but it is what it is, i don't want any more stupid discussions and smirks against kritika or me.

"Okay done" kritika said.

Ishaan came and stood besides me. Feelings are a different thing but we'll win today.

I heard aarav say to kritika, "bro we have to win okay?"
And Kritika replied, "of course, we will"

I love the confidence here.

The first was bowling.

We played three sets with 6 throws each for both teams, out of which we won two sets.

Ishaan was jumping here and there even after missing the most of the bowling pins meanwhile I was the one scoring a direct 10.

But along with this i noticed something, kritika was really good at it.

Out of her 9 throws she bowled 10 pins 7 times. Impressive.

But I am the genius hahaa.

"So who's the boss here hunh?"

Ishaan scowled to aarav and aarav gave him a grumpy look while me and kritika enjoyed their little fights.

"Okay enough, aarav let's show them who we really are."

Next was bike racing.
It was like we hade to sit on the bike and the screen showed the real game happening.

I decided to go for it.

And against me was kritika.

After the countdown the race started. It had 3 laps with 4 rounds each and one final 5th winning round.

We both were in tough competition, she was so good at it that it was difficult for me to get a lead and before I could focus more, she shouted,

"You will lose ahaan, for sure"

Ahaan, Eleventh time.

making me lose my focus and then she took a lead on me.

Youuu.
As she went for the final round with a huge lead, I lost the game and I hit the bike with my fist.

"Now tell me who's the boss, haha"
Kiritka said jumping away from the bike and hugging aarav in excitement and ishaan gave me an angry look.

Okay it's my fault.

Aarav and ishaan were talking to each other about the final game they wanted to play.

Kritika was standing besides me.

"You are really good at all this kritika"
"Yes I am, I love these games or anything similar to it and about the carnival rides oh my god I love them so much, specially the Ferris wheel, that is my dream, to sit on it for hours and hours. People are not allowed to stay there for more than a limited time but I want to just sit there and enjoy the view"

There was so much excitement in her eyes when talking about the rides.

I want to make that dream of hers to come true.

"Kritika!"
"Yes"

"Will you go on a date with me?"

She gasped and looked at my straight face.
I know it was a very sudden question.

"You're not joking right?"
"Of course not kritika, asking you on a date can't be a joke"

"Okay then, i will go on a date with you"

She put her hand on my shoulder and nodded her head in sarcasm.
She is so cute.

And there i knew, this was the girl of my dreams.

I have never felt such an urge to see a smile on someone's face because of me.
But here i want her to smile, laugh with happy tears and i want to be the reason for her smile.

It was almost 3 in the afternoon, so i had to arrange everything. It won't take long for me but the date has to be perfect.

In the mean time aarav and ishaan decided what to play next and kritika was busy chatting with sakshi, i made a few calls and booked everything for coming Friday.
Kritika will leave on Saturday for Delhi, so it will be the best goodbye before we meet in London.
