Dhruv Pov

" I don't understand what exactly are you looking for from morning?"

" I was looking at the sky nothing else" I say but deep down I know that I am looking for someone who stays just opposite to our house.

I don't know why but I suddenly had the urge to look at her so I am here waiting from morning.. now it's already 11 am.

Just as I was thinking these, the opposite window opens revealing Isha. Even from far I can see the dull expressionless face, she wipes her eyes ..

Is she crying?

The thought made me just go to her and solve whatever was bothering her. ..

I sighed maybe I'm thinking too much.

I distracted myself reading some books and then watched some movies with my parents when the bell rang. I stood up to open the door

It was shreya isha's sister. I raised my eyebrows at her questioning

" What brings you here shreya?"

" Bhai woh... Actually..." She trails off

" Dev is not here ma he is with his friends" I say with a smile

" No bhai I'm here to meet you" I frown hearing her

To meet me ?

" Yes ma tell me, get in first" I say

" No bhai can you come out it's really important, I know you can help me in this " she says with tears, I nod.

Once we both go to a nearby cafe. She speaks

" Please Bhai we need your help" I look her confused

" What exactly it's about shreya ?" I ask her

" Bhai ... Actually you know my sister Isha, she is doing her final her degree... Everything was going good but .. because of my aunt who came to visit us, that witch manipulated my parents and fixed my sister's marriage to her nephew" she says

That's a lot to take in

" Okay ... But how can I help you in this ? " I ask her

" Do anything Bhai but this marriage shouldn't take place! Isha di doesn't wants to marry, she is already broken by that witch's words towards her "

I sigh. .. I don't want to involve in this but her smiling face which was now dull losing the glint in her eyes flashes in my mind

" I will handle it " the word slip out of my mouth.

" Thanks Bhai, it means a lot to me " she speaks with tears

" I should first speak with Isha " I say to which she nods thoughtfully and gives Isha's number to me.

" Bhai it's getting late I will go now, please help my sister bhai " she says for the last time

" I will take care of your sis- ..I mean this matter" I quickly correct my sentence and she moves out

What the heck was I about to say?
I will take care of her sister as in Isha ?
Gosh! I'm going crazy!

I shook my head and look at the number. My hands typed the number and dialled her quickly

" Hello !" I heard her sweet voice

" Hello ? Who is this ? Is someone there on the line ?" She speaks

" Hello " I say and don't get a response

" Dhruv ? Aap ?" She asks
I'm surprised how can she know that it was me

" Yeah! So ... Shrey informed me that You are getting married?" I ask

" I ...I am.. no " I can feel her voice crack as she tries to form a sentence

" I was kidding don't be tensed. Anyway don't worry I'll help you cancel this but you have to listen and obey whatever I'm saying okay ?" I speak to which she hmms immediately.

I then explain about my plan and heard her gasp which made me chuckle

" So you'll update me when they'll arrange a meeting with that guy is that right?"

" H...yeah ... I will " she speaks

" And ... Stop crying, you don't look good when crying... Smile suits you better" these words left my mouth without my control and I shut my eyes thinking what will she think of me

" Okay... Thanks a lot dhruv for everything" her voice was low but I can feel the bit of happiness in it.

" It's my pleasure to help you madam! " I say with a smile

" Okay bye " I say and quickly cut the call

It was so unlike me when speaking with her. I should stop thinking a lot about her.

I returned home evening and was munching on my snack which mom offered me.

" Dhruv look at these tell me the one you like" mom spoke handing me many photos

" Maa .. you only select na ?" I say trying to avoid it

" Am I going to marry the girl or you Dhruv?" Mom glares at me

" Fine mom " I say taking the photos and enter my room. I kept the photos untouched near my table and slumped on my bed

Life is going to be different hereafter
I have to select a girl to get married and lead a life ..

I smile recalling my first meet with jiya

I was on a trip to Bangalore with my friends, as were seeing different places in all the days. The last day we went to lalbhag, I was looking around, suddenly out of nowhere a girl cladded in green churidar dragged me along with her while being still on a call. I was amused at her. I kept smiling looking at the beauty who was shocked looking at me then apologized that she mistook me to be her jiju.

That's how we started dating....

I still miss you jiya but I know that you are no more,. Your memories are still in my heart. You will always be my first love ...

I will give in my hundred percent to whoever enters my life and make her feel special

I smile and close my eyes but quickly opened seeing Isha's face

What the heck!

Guess I'm thinking too much about her!

I get up and rush to terrace to get some fresh air but my eyes landed on Isha in white kurti looking no less beautiful than the moon .... who noticing me started waving her hand

Unknowingly a smile made it's way in my face and I too waved at her

" Here to look at moon's beauty?" She speaks her voice is now back to normal

" To look at your beauty" I say in daze

Shit! What happened to my mouth ?

" I mean-n to look at moon's beauty!" I say and look away and saw her still in shock with lips parted

What will she think of me now!

I tried to speak but she went down.

I hope she doesn't thinks bad of me!
