When Opposite Attracts

chapter 5

"Diiiiiiiiiii....muskiiiiii" Riddhima shouted just near their ears waking up them from sleep once again.

"Yar ridziiiii,sone de na.." Muskaan winching turn and get back to her beauty sleep next to her.

Nikki got up from the couch and came to Riddhima,"kya hua Riddhima.. Q pareshan ho..??"

Riddhima just shook her head. She was still not sure whether to be friend with Nikki or not. She still was thinking about Nikki having a soft corner for Armaan which is actually true but then she takes Armaan as her best friend and only best friend. Nothing much nothing less.

"Riddhima.." Nikki sat on bed and looking down softly said,"Riddhima Armaan bas mera best friend hai..na Kuch jyada aur na Kuch kam.."Riddhima looked at her thinking about how she knows her insecurities.

Anjali moved a bit so Nikki held Riddhima's hand and said, "ye dono jaag jaege..hall me chalo.."Riddhima nobbing stood up and they both went to hall.

"Riddhima,Tumhare dil me mujhe leke Armaan ke liye jo insecurities hai,usse na mai bekhabar hu aur na Hi humara gang..hum sab tumhare dil-e- hall se bhot ache se wakif hai...aur haa,hum sab bhot khush hai ki tumhe aisa kuch feel ho rh hai
..agar tum insecure nahi hoti,to shayad Hume tension hoti.." Riddhima again was confused.

"Riddhima tumhare samne Armaan ki baat karna,pal pal tumhe uski yaad dilana,ye sab tumhe Armaan ke liye apne pyaar ka realization ho,isliye Hum sabne kiya.. Hum sabne tumhe Armaan ke Jane ke bad se udaas dekha hai,tumhara Kahi man Hi nahi lagta aur ye sab dekh ke humne plan banaya tha.." Riddhima's eyes popped out of her socket making Nikki smile.

"Toh itne time se tum mujhe realize karane ke liye ye sab kar rh the??" Riddhima asked like a small baby asking for her fav toffee making Nikki giggle while nobbing.

"Aur tumhe Armaan nahi pasand..??" She again asked making Nikki giggle again while this time she shook her head in a big ,big big no.

"Meri engagement ho gai hai already.." Nikki showed her finger showing the ring.

"Ohh.." Suddenly Riddhima's face fell and she looked down getting all pale.

"Hey kya hua??" Nikki make her look at her,"Kya tum upset ho ki mai Armaan ko pasand nahi karti..??"

Riddhima shook her head making Nikki laugh,"toh??","wo Maine bina Kuch Jane aur soche,tumhare sath aisa behave kiya uske liye I m really sorry Nikki..."

"Hey.." Nikki clasped her hand with Riddhima and cupped her cheeks,"agar tumhare jagaj koi aur bhi hota toh yahi karta..believe me,tumne Kuch galat nahi kiya..so chill.."

Riddhima hugged Nikki,"still Nikki,I m sorry.."

"Chill yaar..waise bhi dosti me no sorry no thank you.." Nikki said cheering her.

"Tum coffee piyogi..??"Riddhima asked getting up," mujhe tumse mere Armaan ki bhot si bate janni hai.."

"Mera Armaan huh??" Nikki emphasis on it teasing Riddhima making her blush.

"So bolo,aisi kya baat hai jo tum Muskaan aur Anjali ko utha rahi thi..koi pareshani hai??" Nikki asked following Riddhima to kitchen.

"Wo mai soch rh thi ki mujhe toh realize ho gaya ki mai Armaan se pyar karti hu,par agar Armaan mujhse pyar na karta ho toh??aur agar wo sach me mujhe divorce de diya toh??" She looked so much in pain that her eyes welled up thinking about it,"mai Armaan se ab dur nahi reh paugi.."

"Aise mat socho Riddhima..aur Armaan tumhe pyar karta hai ya nahi ye Armaan se better koi nahi janta..tum janti ho,wo jitne ache se apni feeling jatata hai usse bhi ache se chapana janta hai.." Nikki said,making riddhima's heart Skip some beats," toh jaise humne abhi tumhe realize karaya,ab tumhe pata lagana hai ki Armaan tumse pyar karta hai ya nahi..aur fikar mat karo..tumhe jald Hi tumhare Prince charming ka sath mil jaega.."
