Darshan's POV

I fucked up again. I know I shouldn't have said that. But I'm just so angry, because I have the habit of getting whatever I want. And the only person I want right now is Nidhi and she's making it harder for me to get it.

I was a complete dick to her today, and I realised it the minute I saw her eyes well up. But before I could say anything, she just ran past me.

She said she needed time, but I guess because of my dick move, she won't be needing it anyway. She'll pass me up.

Forget about her, Darshan. She isn't coming to you now.

Later in the evening, I go home. The home is lonely, and me being drunk doesn't help. Maa left last week, due to work call. She works for a NGO which helps to save girl child. She joined it, to make up for the loss of the three lives that I took. Good work she's doing and I encourage her as well.

I go into my bed room to change into something comfortable. I dress myself in black joggers and black full sleeved tshirt.
I get hungry, so I go downstairs to have some food.

The next day, as I woke up, I'm reminded by my mind how I fucked up yesterday and how I need to make things right. I get out of bed, and walk into the shower.

I get ready wearing a plain white v-neck tshirt and pair them up with navy blue cargos. I complete the look with white high top converse.

As I was off of work today, I decided to grab some beautiful flowers, for the beautiful lady I'm kinda attracted to, as a sign of apology and take her out somewhere fancy at night.

I get into my car, and drive to the bouquet shop first. I get a bunch of lavender wrapped in thin plastic sheet. Something tells me she loves lavender. I return to the car and then head off to her apartment.

Around 20 mins later, I'm here, at her door steps, about to ring the bell. I wait for a second or two, after which the door opens. I see Antra, all sleepy.

"Did I wake you up?" I ask.

"Indeed you did." She yawns.

"Is Nidhi hom—"

"She's upstairs in her room. Probably sleeping too." She cuts me off.

She lets me in and she goes to the kitchen to get water for herself.

I guess she doesn't know about the fight Nidhi and I had. Nidhi decided not to tell her I guess. That's great.

I head to Nidhi's room.

I open the door and there's no one to be seen. I can hear the water in the washroom though. Which means she got up and having a shower. Great! That way I don't have to keep waiting.

As I lay the flowers on the bed, I hear the door to the washroom open.

"Don't get frighten, love. It's me here. I'll just turn around so you can get dress up. And please don't yell or anything, just get dressed up and then you can do whatever you want. Okay?" I tell her.

"Um.. okay?" She's still kinda shocked.

After good seven minutes of waiting, she's finally dressed up and standing right in front of me. She looks stunning in her outfit which consists of dark denims and black and white checkered tank top. And to compliment the look, she's wearing black converse.

"So may I ask what brought you here, early in the morning?" She throws her little sass. Oh I like it.

"Good morning to you, too." I say handing her the flowers.

She rolls her eyes.

"How did you know I like lavender?" She asks curiously.

"Thanks to your cologne. You smell lavender all the time." I smirk.

"Oh." She says and smells them.

"So now about me being here, I wanted to take you out, as a apology." I say, hoping she'd say yes.

"Like a date out?" She asks.

"Like a date out, yes." I nod, confirming.

"I don't kno—"

"So do you need more time or are you all set to go?" I ask completely ignoring her denial.

"Yes." She gives in.
