🐚 Raho me, tanha hu saath le chal yu
Sang tere safar poora karu 🐚

"Akriti! Come on. Where are you?" Aarush spoke into the phone just as she answered.

"Hello to you too, Aarush." Aakriti spoke as she got out of her room and locked the door.

"Kahan reh gayi tum? Jaldi kar. Mai already beach par ho." Aarush informed.

Where are you? Make haste. I'm already at the beach.

"Abhi 10 min hai 9 bajne mei." Aakriti spoke in the phone as she looked at her wrist watch.

There are still 10 minutes left for 9 o'clock.

"Haa toh jaldi karna." Aarush replied.

Exactly, so make haste.

"Koi aur aya bhi nahi hoga abhi, I bet. Beach par akela khada hai aur mujhe jaldi karne ko bol raha hai, huh." Aakriti spoke.

No one else's is presented there yet, I bet. You must be the only one at the beach and not asking me to make haste, huh.

"No madam. Mai yahan akela nahi hu." Aarush replied, his tone reflecting the smug look on his face.

I'm not alone here.

"Accha? Kon hai tumhare saath?" Aakriti asked as she walked to the elevator.

Is it? Who's there with you?

"Harry."

"Aarush woh hamara manager hai. Of course, woh sabse pehle waha hai." Aakriti replied, pressing the button for the elevator.

Aarush, he's our manager. Of course, he's gonna be present there before everybody else.

"Toh? Jaldi aa." Aarush replied.

So? Come fast.

"Haa haa mara kyun jaa raha hai. Aa rahi hu." Aakriti replied just as the elevator doors opened and she stepped in.

Yeah yeah, why're you such a goner. I'm coming.

"Mar toh ussi din gaya tha jab tujhe pehli baar dekha tha." Aarush spoke with a small smile gracing his face.

I was completely gone the moment I saw you for the first time.

Unfortunately, Aakriti couldn't hear him since the reception got cut off in the elevator.
