"Oh please.....just get ready fast and come here within an hour.... don't drive rashly I am telling you!"He warned her
"Okay okay....I'll see you all bye"She said and hung up

"Argh"Anshika got ready as quickly as possible and went

Anshika went to them
"I am sorry"She said sitting on the chair
"Ab aadat hogayi hai....it's fine"Hardil said
"Shut up....pehli bar Aisa hua hai"Anshika said
"Ek baar already ho chuka hai"He replied

"I don't remember the date now"He said
"You don't remember because it has never happened"Anshika said
"Okay...chill"Darshan said stopping them

"This is too far....why did you come here?"Anshika asked
"Yeh....your bf wanted to eat lasagna"Hardil said
"Her bf is your bestfriend as well"Avish glared at him
"Haaa...wahi"Hardil laughed it off

They were talking when suddenly Aniket entered....he sat next to their table after seeing them.Anshika noticed him and looked away....Guy's also saw him

"It's taking so long.... Let's go we will go somewhere else"Siddharth said
"Haa..Anshu let's go"Darshan said getting up
Anshika stopped them
"I know why are you going....but It's fine....why should we go cause of him?"She stated
"Arey but-"
"Sit down....you want to eat lasagna na?...we will eat here only"Anshika said
Darshan kept his hand on hers beneath the table.Anshika looked at him,giving an assuring smile

After sometime...Aniket got up and came towards their table
"Hii guy's"he said
Everyone looked at him and minded their own business once again
"Anshu....hii"he said,Anshika ignored him
"Hey...I want to talk.. Please give me a chance Anshu"Aniket said gaining a glare from Darshan
"I need your 5 minutes only"he said
Darshan was about to get up but Anshika stopped him
"You can talk whatever you want here"Anshika said
"Here?I want to talk alo-"
"I can't...and I don't....these people know everything about me...so say what you want to"She said not sparing a glance at him
"I know...but still"he insisted
"Just go from here"Darshan said
"I am not talking with you....so mind your own busine-"
"He is doing that only....I am HIS business"Anshika said holding Darshan's hand
"Sirf 5 min"Aniket said
"I avoid cheaters Aniket...please"She said
Siddharth and Hardil looked at eachother with a proud smile
"And yes,I am committed now.... don't contact me anymore....last time I responded was my first and last mistake related with you"She added

"Itni kaafi hai yeh aur beijati sunke jayega?"Hardil asked
"He must have been used to it by now....hai na chea- I mean....Aniket?"Siddharth asked with an evil smile
Aniket couldn't stand it anymore and left after glaring at them.
All of them except Anshika laughed out loudly.
"Waah bhai....I have seen this side of Anshu for the first time"Avish said patting her shoulder
"Chupa rustam"Hardil said
Darshan looked at her with a wide smile and patted her head.

Darshan hugged her
"Calm down baby"he said caressing her back
"Yaah! Don't call me baby...they might hear Darsh"She said looking behind if someone is there.
"Darpok"He chuckled
"Yk what I think....what if we tell them about our relationship right now?"Anshika looked at him

"Now you are over your past right?"
"Hmm..I am...why?"
"Matlab....I was just saying...woh...do you remember my friend came to your house a few days ago"
"Unka kya?"Anshika asked

"Toh kya problem hai?"
"Hai koi problem"Anshika said
"You are good in your career....you don't have any bf....and age is also-"
"IAMDATINGDARSHAN"Anshika said in one breath
"WHAT"her mother got up
Darshan opened the door at the same time.
Her chachu looked at him and then at her

"Is that true?"Rajendra asked
Their parents were sitting on the couch and both of them were standing in front of them quietly.
Anshika looked at Darshan.
"Anshu?"Her chachu asked
Both of them nodded as yes looking down
"Kabse chalu hai yeh sab?"they asked
"9 months"Darshan answered politely
Anshika's chachu sighed heavily
"Chachu..she wasn't ready...I-"
