Bang.

Something fell.

Amma. Shit. She doesn't let me sleep peacefully.

"What happened", My dad yells.

I look at the clock. Its just 6 am.

Today Rahul's family is coming home.

Will Arjun come?

Arjun isn't his family Sakshi!

So he won't come. Okay. I thought I would see him. Why, shut up.

I freshen up and get my phone.

353 messages. OMG.

A new group formed. RANJLI.

Yes, that's their hashtag name.

Cringe.

I got 340 photos and 12 reactions from that group. 1 message from an unknown number which I saw last night.

Hoping it to be Arjun I open to find a cake with sorry written on it.

I chuckle zooming it and staring it for what I know 10 mins

And finally decide reply.

Arjun:

Me:Only pictures is it?

Me:
Only pictures is it?

He replied the very moment.

Arjun:
What do you want?

Me:
I want to eat it.

Arjun:
Catch up anytime?

Me:
You won't mind?

(I asked this thinking of his girlfriend. That freaking confident girl.)

Arjun:
What is there to mind madam?

(My cheeks turn crimson. He called me Madam. He usually does. But this was after a long time. He used to say he respects me a lot. But I shouldn't care now. Let me just meet him and clear that I AM OVER HIM. Even if I'm not.)

Me:
Answer my question bishhh.

Arjun:
No I won't mind.

Me:
Where do you want to meet?

Arjun:
At your home?

(I leave him on seen after a min he texts back again. I laughed realizing he hasn't left that habit yet.)

Arjun:
???
