"Ek ajnabi hasina se ,Yun mulaqat ho gayi
Phir kya hua yeh na puchho,
Kuch aisi baat ho gayi.."

"Only one please," Devika begged almost for the sixth time.
Ranjini again shook her head and in no and said in her stern voice, "Are you going insane, Devi? You've already had five tubs of ice cream, and now you want one more?"
"Only one," She again begged, and now Ranjini had to nod. What more could she do with her? Devika was stubborn.
Ranjini was finding her phone, but then she remembered that she forgot her phone in the scooter.
"Devi, I forgot my phone in the scooty. What if Papa calls? I just came back to get it,"
She said to Devika, who nodded in understanding.
Ranjini parked her scooter across the road, so she went towards her scooter and opened the scooter's bonnet to take out her phone.
She thanked God when there was no missed call from her parents, but there was one from a number.
She placed her phone in her jeans' pocket and started crossing the road while thinking about him.
She felt guilty about not picking up his call. It's not like he complains; he never does. He's a real gentleman, putting in so much effort to make her feel special. But those efforts didn't flatter her heart, didn't erupt butterflies in her stomach.
Her chain of thoughts was broken when she heard the horn of a big vehicle, a car, coming towards her because she was in the middle of the road.
Her eyes widened when realization hit her hard. The car was so close to her.
She closed her eyes out of fear, but before the car could touch her body, a hand pulled her towards him and towards the other side of the road.
She felt numb, not feeling any movement. She felt like she was already dead, but when she heard a manly, angry voice, she knew that she was alive.
She took two long breaths, still with closed eyes.
"Choti bachi ho kya aese road cross karogi, park samjh ke rakha hai, ya zindagi ke koi value hi nahi hai tumhe?" Gautam scolded her because he was so angry.
When he saw her, she was in between the road, and the car was speeding. He was afraid like hell, no one paying any attention to her. Everyone was busy in their work. He ran towards her to save her.
He also took some breaths of relief, but his anger was not calmed.
How could he be calm? She was so irresponsible. What if something happened to her? But he waited for her to open her eyes.
