Best Birthday ever
20th December, 2011
“Yeeee it’s my birthday” I was chirping. I was talking on phone with my best friend.
“Yes, baby it’s your birthday. So, what’s the plan?” He asked me. There was an unusual excitement in his voice.
“There’s nothing special for today. Everyone is busy.” I said.
“What do you mean? I’m here na? We’ll celebrate your birthday together.” He said. His voice had some spark.
“yeah okay, so what’s the plan?” I enquired.
“”There is no plan. You just come to my place within an hour and we’ll celebrate in our way.” He exclaimed.
I was sad; i was expecting some surprises from him. After all, he is my best friend; he should do something for me. Not only friend but he is my first crush too. Yeah, i liked him. He was too caring to be just friends with.
“Kaha kho gayi?? Are you there??” He was shouting over the phone.
“ahh wo...M here only. I’m going to get ready and will be there on time.” I said
“Idiot..Bye. I love you and be on time.” He disconnected.
OMG, did he really say that?? Am i dreaming? Does he say he is in love with me?
“ahh.. stop talking to yourself Anshu. And get ready fast otherwise he’ll taunt to again” I said to myself and went to get ready.
Now what to wear is the biggest problem in my life. I was going through my wardrobe when my phone buzzed again. It was him only.
“Sun, don’t waste your time searching for the dress, wear the one i gifted you last week. Now, bye.”
Such an idiot he is. He didn’t even wait for me to talk. Alas, i got ready in that Blue top, black skinny jeans along with a jacket. I was ready to move out. I was calculating the time, and as per the calculations I’ll be half n hour late. I told mumma that I’m going to Shaurya’s house. As we were family friends too, i was allowed to go there anytime.
I took the scooty and left for his house. I was trying not to blush after continuously thinking about that “i love you”.
Finally, i reached his house. It was no less than a palace. I entered smiling through that giant gate. I loved the garden of his house; it has hell lots of flowers. Especially those roses, making the garden look magnificent. And i finally entered into the house.
And he was there in front of my eyes, in shorts and loose t-shirts. His hair was messed up. No wonder what he was doing.
“A very happy birthday, Anshu.” He said while giving me a hug.
“Thank you so much Shaurya” I said hugging him back.
I was feeling so good; being with him like this was truly delighting. I had those happy tears in my eyes. But i never wanted him to know about my feelings. He considered me his friend and i was happy being like that only.
Me: “Ab hug hi krega ya meko mera gift b dega”
Shaurya: “Tera gift kitchen m hain”
Me: “Aalsi..bahar le aana tha aa “
Shaurya: “Go and check yourself”
And i went to the kitchen,( na na usne koi cake ni bnaya :D) There was a plate of my favourite chilly paneer:P Along with it there was a note with my name on it.
But maine b note ni chilly paneer uthaya Actually, i was trying to avoid that weirdness at my birthday. He was staring at me. Then suddenly;
“I knew that you would not pick up that note.”
He was mum then from where the hell his voice was coming?
“Idiot, voice can be recorded na. Now, stop wondering. Look anshu, it has been almost 10 years to our friendship, but no there’s no friendship left between us. Stop staring me girl. Haha, well you know this too. I can see that in your eyes that you like me. And that diary of yours says the same. Shollie for reading that. you know i never wanted to propose you or something. Meko laga tu samjh jayegi. But no, you’re so dumb. Last time chida rha hu . Listen girl, I love you. so you have to love me back too. You’re not allowed to love or even like someone else..ok?”
And by this he made my birthday best ever. I just ran to hug him. We were in each other’s arm, now as love birds. He kissed me on my cheeks and i blushed.
All day we were together,hand in hands cuddling each other,now as lovers. I was so damn happy That was indeed my best birthday ever
P.S-when your best friend turns out to be your soul mate, It's the best feeling ever. And it is purely fictitious
