Priya's Pov
Day 13

Past in Italics

"What about them?"I asked Arjun.

"Nope!"He frowned.

"Hu!"I am truly disappointed.

"Look at them!"He pointed at another pair.

"Marvellous!"I almost freaked and dragged everyone's attention.

"I know"He pouted.

"Shut up!"I slapped his cheek fakely.

"Please show them!"Arjun asked the salesman.

"Wow!"I took those rings into my hands.

"It's Ruby"I pointed at the ruby studded in the alphabet "P".It's for the Bride"I am eager to wear the ring.

"And its Topaz"He took the Groom's ring.

"And It's "A"He showed me the ring.

"I would love to wear these rings on the day of our engagement"I smiled madly.

"They are specially made Madam,Designer pieces"Salesman answered my question.

I felt sad for a second but I have decided that I would wear such a ring on the day of my engagement.

"P and A"I smiled.

"Priya and Arjun"Arjun looked at me with a smiling face and caught my hand.

"Yes!Priya and Arjun"I felt jolts for a second and yanked at his touch but warmth in his hand is truly assuring.

"I love you!"He whispere in my ear

"I love you too :-)"I smiled back and looked straight into his eyes

I reached the office much earlier and sat in my cabin,flashes of memories.I am holding those rings in my hand.I am happy to see them.

Those were truly lovely days.I am missing those days,That love,my Arjun.I want him to open up.

I wanted to attend the camp but everything went in Vain.I just want to finish the work as soon as possible but prajwal came from no where and dumped my plans.So I am back,back to work,office after two days.I haven't met anyone in these two days.

What about Arjun?He just want to go back to her mom for a week.Will he come?I am tangled in my own thoughts.

"Mam!"I looked up and saw the office boy standing infront my chair in my cabin.

"What?"I asked him a bit impatiently.

"Sir,Wants to meet you!"He said causally.

"But why?That to at this time!"I looked at the clock.

He kept a blank face and I scolded myself for asking him such a silly question.

"Arjun sir is also with him!"He gave me an additional piece of information.

I felt happy yet I know there is something fishy.

"Good morning Sir,"I greeted him soon I entered the cabin.

Arjun turned to me with a calm face devoid of any expressions.

"Good morning Priya!"He smiled and signed me to sit.

Arjun dragged the chair for me and gave a his casual smile.

I am truly surprised to see him smiling all the time.

He is trying to look much composed.

"Well Priya,Our client is happy with us,our service.He chose the land and want to start the work as soon as possible.He will be leaving the town next week.So let us start the work tomorrow itself "He looked at us smiling.

"Great!"I felt weird for a second.

"Yes!"Arjun looked at me calmly.

"I am happy"I smiled at him,fake one.

"I should thank you both!"He stood up.

"Happy to have you as our client"Our Director shook his hand.

"I am quite satisfied with you service."Arjun looked at me.

I found a kind of pain in his eyes.He is hiding his pain obviously.

"You both carry on!"He left us both.

We both moved to my cabin.We both remained silent.We have no words to speak.

"So!"I spoke to him showing the desings I brought from our Engineer.

"Which one would be better?"He asked me.

"I think this one would be the best!"I chose one according to my knowledge.

"Yes!I too thought the same"He dragged the plan to the centre of the table.

We both stood up and looked at the plan.It's truly amazing.

"We always shared the same tastes"Arjun murmured.

"What?"I pretended that I didn't listen at all.

"Nothing!"He looked away.

"Yes :-)"I smiled devilishly.

"By the way nice Ring!"He surprised me with the comment.

"Thanks!"I gave a grin.

"What?"He looked at me suddenly.

"For the compliment!"I smiled.

He didn't say anything just looked away.

"So you still remember them?"I asked him taking the opportunity.

"Hu!"He smiled pale.

"I have ordered but someone took them prior to me"He said sadly.

"It's me !"I gave another artificial grin.

"Oh!"He nodded.

"Huu!Yess!"I nodded.

"Nice rings!"He gave a fake smile.

"I didn't know you have ordered for them!"I said innocently.

"I have tried for them on the same day we went to the Shop"He answered.

"I brought them a week ago that too after two years,I saved the pic,so I could order them to for a new pair"I said chuckling a bit.

"Oh!"He took the plan into his hand started looking it seriously.

"Even I found Another pair"I showed him another set of Rings.

"What?"He looked a bit irritated.

"Nothing!"I hid them.

"Shall we go?"He asked me.

"Yes!"I nodded.

We went to the entrance and Arjun looked at me questioningly.

"I didn't bring my scooty!"I nodded.

Arjun looked at me and his bike one after the other.

He looked at the roadside for any taxi or Auto.Luckily we didn't find any.

"Okay then!"He started his bike and asked me to sit.

Such an amazing bike ride that to after a long time.I felt happy and thrilled.

It's an unofficial long ride.I am smiling madly.
