Rahul's P.O.V.

"Ok mere baap, now may I hang up?"

"Ok chachu, come back home soon. I have to play lots and lots of video games with you."

"If you won't hang up, how will chachu come home?"

"Ok ok, we are hanging up. Bye!" I heard little Aria's voice chirp and then I heard the call go dead. I smiled to myself and shook my head as I slid my phone into my pocket. I then grabbed the files, my blazer and my laptop and rushed out of my cabin.

"By Rahul!" My PA, Jennifer smiled as I passed her.

"Bye Jenny!" I called back and practically ran out of the office. I stood by the door as my chauffeur quickly drove the car to the front step. The car eventually comes to a stop as I heard the engine roar.

"Oh great! Don't tell me the car is stuck!" I hugged in frustration.

"Sorry Rahul Sir, I'll check right now."

"Better make it quick." I warned as he got out of the car to check what was wrong. Did my car seriously have to mess up today? Out of all the days? Seriously! I looked down at my laptop and run my hand through my hair, frustrated. I let out a sigh and look out the window. That's when something caught my eyes. I saw a couple park under a tree. I watched closely as they got out of the car. And then it happened what I least expected. They started dancing in the rain. I narrowed my eyes to get a closer watch. It might seem creepy that I am staring at them, but what can I say? It seemed like they were having a best time with each other. The two of them reminded me too much of my past. And mostly the scene reminded me too much of her.

*********************Flashback********************

"Oh that's just great! The car stops just here!" I groan sarcastically as I threw my hands up in the air.

"Rahul, I think you need to relax a bit. It's alright. Let's go." She turned to open the car door, but I stopped her.

"Are you mad?" I stared at her wide eyed and paused before continuing.

"You'll get sick."

"Rahul. We live once. We die once. You never know what's going to happen in this lifetime of yours. So while you live, live life to its fullest." She smiled. I couldn't help, but smile back. That's the quote we lived our lives by.

"C'mon." She burst open the car door and ran outside in the rain. She spread her arms out wide like it was the last thing she'd want to do. A smile made its way to my lips as I watched her attentively. She motioned for me to come with her hands, but I shook my head and motioned for her to continue. She kept begging me to come and I gotta admit, I couldn't refuse. I eventually had to get out of the car and join her.

**************Flashback Ends**************

My eyes are drawn away as I hear the door open and Mark take a seat inside the car.

"Ready?"

"Yeah." He nodded and started the car. I tried not to think of her, but the memories of her are starting to invade my thoughts, like it's been doing for the past few years.

"Chachu! Chachu!" My niece and nephew who were twins, Anmol and Aria ran into my arms as I entered. Somehow, they always figured I was home. I bent down and scooped both of them up into my arms, as Mark followed behind me.

"My vie doe games?"

"My doll?" Mark smiled and held out the bags.

"Thank you chachu! You're the best!" They chirped and gave me a kiss, on either side of the cheek. I put them down and they soon ran away.

"Rahul, you're pretty late today?" I heard Megha Bhabhi's voice ask. She was practically my favorite person in this house because she's the one person whom I could share anything with and she'll always give me advice.

"Yeah Bhabhi, the car actually broke down, that's why." I took a seat on the couch.

"Where are mom and dad?" I asked looking around and noticing they weren't around.
"They've gone to meet their friends that have come from London." London. Ouch, that hurts.

"Anyways, your brother had called. He said to call him back and inform him about the meeting."

"Yeah I will. Thanks." I said and got up to head to my room, my brother was really most of the time traveling due to business deals and meetings abroad, so he was never really home. Partly why Anmol and Aria were so attached to me.

"Oh and Rahul,"

"Yeah?" I stopped and turned around.

"All the best for tomorrow."
