Woh ek saal

Boyfriend

Recap : it's Birla hospital's 35th Anniversary, aaru wins scholarship while Neil earns his due respect.. Neil follows Aarohi to her hostel to propose

The night was getting darker and the clouds were getting heavier almost as if it is going to rain heavily

Aaru's cab driver dropped her few kilometres away from the hostel gate since she didn't have more money to pay him

Aaru came out of the car and noticed the unusual weather
Ye baarish ki boonde (drops) kyu gir Rahi hai? Ye heels bhi na.. kitna hurt kar Rahi hai.. mei toh ek Kadam bhi aage nahi badh paa Rahi .. hostel toh phir bhi kuch kilometre door hai

Aaru tried walking straight while her foot wear refused to help her .. she continued walking when her heels got stuck in her saree and she fell down

Owwww .. ek toh mera pav upar se ye bin mausam ki baarish

She saw a yellow light from a car's headlight falling on her face

Aarohi?? Tum theek ho tum Gir kaise gayi? Neil came out of his car

Aaru did not expect Neil to be here at this point of time

(Y'all can enjoy the further reading along with the song attached in the beginning 😁)

Neil helped Aarohi get up and he smiled looking at her . Aaru felt like she was watching a dream. She quickly picked up her heels in her hand and started walking faster towards her hostel room which was still a few kilometres away

Neil saw her go away and said it aloud
I LOVE YOU AAROHI GOENKA
KYA TUM BHI MUJHSE PYAAR KARTI HO??

Aarohi stopped hearing these words, her heart skipped a beat , she didn't know how to react .. and she turned around to look at the man who was standing at a distance . She started walking towards him and looked into his loved filled eyes

Neil looked back at Aarohi who was completely drenched in the rain now . He looked at her wet hair and face filled with water droplets . He felt the true love from her side through her beautifully kohled eyes.. thank god the kohl was waterproof though

Tears started dropping from Aarohi's eyes.

I love you Aarohi , tumhe mere I love you ka jawab dene ke liye jitna time chahiye tum le sakti ho Neil said it softly while aaru was standing still, comprehending his words

She dropped the heels from her hands and came closer to him still looking into his eyes and boom 💥
She slapped him? (Not very harshly though)

Neil was shocked at whatever just happened
I.. I'm sorry.. Aaro

Before he could complete his apology,
She tiptoed and placed her soft and wet lips on his warm lips and started kissing him with passion and an intensity they never felt before

She took his hands and placed them on her bare waist while she held his collar to pull him closer
Neil's hand went from her waist to her face to cup them as he kissed her back with more passion without thinking too much

It started raining heavily drenching them completely. But did it matter? They were too busy devouring each other to care about the heavy rains.

This was their first official kiss that too in rains??, congrats readers we made it to this chapter 💁‍♀️

After 3 minutes of being lost in each other's continuously Aaru took a step back
She looked at Neil while he looked back at her with a smile

Aarohi I..

She ran back to her room bare feet , while Neil stood still in the rains trying to comprehend the events.. first slap and then a kiss? Maybe the slap was for the delayed confession
