The next day me and Vicky were supposed to go for a bike ride along the streets of ECR. But Vicky turned the plan down at the last minute stating he has to go for shopping for his engagement.

Its understandable. So I did not get upset with that. Actually after hearing what Vicky's mom said yesterday, I realized my mistake.

Sandhya has been talking some random things with me over the phone. Sandhya really tries her level best to keep the conversation going. Thinking of what Vicky's mom told, chances are there that Sandhya might have expected me to spend more time talking with her. 

Not even an outing has happened with her. I quickly took my mobile from pocket and messaged her asking where she is now.

Sandhya : I am at my Aunt's house.

Me: Where is it? 

Sandhya: At Perambur . In a function, can I talk later or tomorrow? came her reply.

Me: Ok. Enjoy.

I looked at my mobile longingly. I now understood this is how she might have also felt , when I don't give her time.

Days went fast. Its been almost 1 and half months. Me and Sandhya did not get time to meet each other. I come late from office and her house is too far from my house and office. Hence it was difficult for us to meet each other.

Weekends she was busy with her purchase and other activities related to Marriage. I decided to meet her today no matter what. 

Pushing some work to Vicky, I left from office early to have a meet with Sandhya. I checked with her via text and confirmed that she is yet to leave home from her office.

It took almost one hour for me to reach her office. I was waiting at the entrance of her office and dialed her.

"Where are you?" I asked.

"I am at the bus stop. why?"

"the one near your office?" 

"Ya.. but why do you ask that?"

"wait there . don't get in to bus "

I quickly drove my bike fast to the bus stop and stopped near her. She did not recognize first as I was wearing helmet. The moment, I removed it , I saw the surprise and happiness her eyes carried , seeing me. We moved little away from the bus stop as the buses were halting at the stop.

"What are you doing here Deva? Why did you come?" she asked with excitement and anticipation of what my answer would be.

"Should I not come to see you? " I quirked my eyebrows playfully. " Hmm. Shall we go out somewhere?" I asked her eagerly.

She blushed. Looked surprised, felt happy everything at the same time. 

"Where?"

"hmm.. we don't have much time to go to a mall or park. May be to that temple over there? Is that ok ?"

She hesitated a bit. Looking at her face I understood.

"sorry.. I did not realize that you are on your periods. Will go to that small hotel if you don't mind?" I asked.

Hearing me talk about periods, she quickly looked back at her kurti to check if there are any stains.
