"You Were Everything To Me"
Chapter-7
Kudrat came back home and messaged Arjun about her arrival as Arjun asked her to do.
"Main mumma papa nu sach kyun ni dsya!!(maine mumma papa ko sach kyun ni btaaya!!)"Kudrat was talking to herself.
She was feeling very bad as it was the first time she lied to her parents and that too for Arjun. She never ever lied to her parents no matter what.
She was lost in her thoughts when her phone buzzed. It was Arjun.
"Haanji. Dusso(bolo)"Kudrat said.
"Thank you so much for today" Arjun replied in a calm voice.
"Anything for you"Kudrat smiled over the phone.
Both remained silent for few moments listening to each other breathing.
"I am missing you"Arjun confessed.
Kudrat went in state of shock but composed herself and said "Oh teri. Saadi yaad v aaundi ae kisse nu. Enni wadia kismat saadi( oh teri. Meri yaad bhi Aati hai kisi ko. Itni ache kismat meri)"Kudrat said in a sweet tone.
"Kudrat"Arjun said in a stern voice.
"Okay okay. Sorry"Kudrat apologized.
"I want to meet you"Arjun chipped.
"Aaj e ta mile c appan. Hje 2 ghante v ni hoye mainu ghre aaye( aaj hi toh mile the. Abhi 2 hours bhi nahin hue ghar aaye)"Kudrat said.
"Okay. Bye"Arjun said and hanged up.
Kudrat called back but he was rejecting her call again and again.
After trying five times, she messaged him.
"Okay baba okay. Don't get angry. Tomorrow. Come home" Kudrat's message to Arjun said.
Arjun didn't reply. She again messaged him."Duss v do hun( bta bhi do ab)"
"Okay"Arjun's reply came after fifteen minutes.
Kudrat waited for another message but he didn't text her.
Kudrat was lying on her bed and thinking about her day. That was the only reason she never believed in these bf gf relationships. She found them weird. She felt that it meant timepass only. She was never in favour of such relationships. For her, love was just meant to happen once and it was forever. Not like today,"Tu nahin toh koi aur sahi" thing.
And once again, Arjun and Jasmine's relationship proved her right. It again proved her right that love is just a game for people nowdays. A game to pass their time.
And once again she was sure that she never wanted to fall in love. But destiny has its own ways.
**********
Arjun and Kudrat's meetings were more frequent now and the main reason behind this was Jasmine.
Yes. Jasmine. When Arjun broke up with Jasmine , he was angry at her, but as time passed he was missing her badly and the only place where Arjun was seeking relief was Kudrat's presence.
On the other hand Kudrat was always there for him as a best friend. She knew that Arjun needed company to come out of his sadness.
Days rolled by and it was almost a month to Arjun and Jasmine's break up. Arjun was very much normal now. All thanks Kudrat and her support in his life.
This one month changed their equation a lot. They shared their deepest secrets in this period. They developed a blind trust at each other.
Arjun's parents were also back so his life became all normal again. Atleast it seems to be. Yes he still misses Jasmine but he accepted that she is not a part of his life now.
And Kudrat. Well Kudrat was daily fighting with herself. Yes. This one month changed her life. She was not able to decide that it changed for good or bad.
This one month gave her a friend like Arjun whom she trusts blindly. She knew he will always be there for her whenever she will need a support.
Sometimes she used to smile alone, thinking about herself and Arjun. Their fights over silly things like "who will go to the ticket counter?'' Or " who is better shahrukh or Salman?" Or "why people should not eat non veg ?" Or blah blah blah.
Kudrat was again living her childhood with Arjun. Little poor girl knew that this childlike games and fights gonna act as a catalyst for a new phase of her life.

"You had your breakfast?" Arjun asked Kudrat over the phone.
"No. Time e ni milya mainu"Kudrat said like a kid.
"Leave your books. And go. Breakfast kro cheti. And I don't want any arguments(Have your breakfast. Quickly.)"Arjun said.
"Okay. Going"Kudrat said and hanged up.
It was 11 in the morning and Kudrat was preparing for her final exams which was scheduled next week. Exams preparations was taking a toll on her health.
She was like this only, whenever she sits to study, she forgets whole of the world. She and her books. Perfect combination. But now Arjun was taking care of her health. He used to ask her about her meals. He knew she can fight with her parents over it but not with him.
Kudrat for the very first time was experiencing this kind of care from someone other than her family. She was liking it. And why not ?? Her "best friend" was taking care of her. Everyone's best friend do such things. Didn't they?
On the other hand Arjun immersed himself in his work but still he took out time for Kudrat to ask about her preparations.
Arjun was average in his studies but he knew that Kudrat is a bright student. She can do wonders. Whenever Kudrat used to feel depressed about her exams, Arjun was the one who always motivated her, assured her that she can do anything she want.
And his words was her booster. She feel blessed to have a friend like him in her life.
Exams passed in blink of eye. Well they never pass in blink of eye . Kudrat was free now. For some days atleast. She decided to read her favourite romantic novels again.
But this time while reading them again she felt something different. It was not the same feeling she experienced when she read them in the first place. A very unknown feeling it was.
But Kudrat ignored it. She knew that she do not want to experience such kind of unknown feelings. She always shrugged away her thoughts about it.
But somewhere in the depths of her heart someone had finally broken the wall and an unidentifiable part of her had begun to feel special for that someone.
To Be Continued...❤
