Network Romeo Series

Chapter-X

It's already a week since Shalini proposed me, I told Mara about everything. In the evening I got a what'sapp text from Shalini.

"Hey Yash are you free tomorrow? Reply me quick!"

"No Shalini, I have college tomorrow. What is the reason?"

"My friend Gayathri is coming to the Brookefields mall tomorrow, I want you to meet her"

"How can I recognise her?"

"I'll send you her image, I have a surprise for you"

(pic)

"I just now received her image, have you sent something for me to her?"

"Ya you can say like that!"

"But my friends won't be free tomorrow and I am afraid to bunk classes alone!"

"Won't you do that for me?"

"Yeah I will don't worry, at which time will she be coming?"

"At 10am, ill inform her about this ok?"

"Ya okay Shalini"

I called both Mara and Serene, they were not ready to bunk college because semester was about to start in two weeks so I decided I must go alone somehow, but I haven't travelled to that mall in bus! Just then I remembered by bandmates.

I called Madhav because he and Sowmya often went to that mall. He said that they both will come and give me the directions in phone to reach the mall.

Next morning I somehow found the mall by asking people on the road. Later after sometime, I found Madhav and Sowmya in the side entrance and we waited for Shalini's friend to come. Till 10:20am there was not a single sign of her. I was just about to call her when a familiar face waved at me from the distance.

"Hey Yash I am Gayathri!! Nice to meet you"

She shook hands with me and I introduced her to my friends. She also gave them a handshake with a smile.

"Gayathri, Shalini told that she had a surprise for me?"

"Ya she has a very big surprise. Go to the Archie's shop over there. I will hang out with your friends for some time!"

Saying that she walked with Madhav and Sowmya. I was really surprised. Maybe Shalini want to surprise me by coming here? I went into the Archie's store and there was no one else except for the shopkeeper, he gave me a love greeting card.

Maybe I expected too much! the greeting card was empty. Just as I was staring at that card somebody hugged me from behind!! I could clearly see that it was a girl wearing a yellow gown with the most familiar face and was also looking very beautiful.

"Shalini!!! It's really you?"

"Yeah it's really me" she giggled

"I didn't expect you to come like this! You look more beautiful in person than than in the edited photos!"

"Ha ha pagal I told you it was a surprise, I was trying to look at how you react in the store so I was watching you from the opposite shop the whole time!"

"Really? You came just to see me?"

"Of course I want to spend the whole day with my prince!!"

"Prince? Who me?" I laughed.

"Ya you are! If I'm your princess then automatically you will be prince right?"
