Broken Jewel

❤75❤ - New Relations

Arjun had a small smile playing at his lips recalling the memory of how scared she looked the first time he intimidated her. When he turned his head towards his right, his eyes froze at the sight of the girl whom his entire conversation for the past ten minutes was indulged with. But that wasn't what made his heart flip.

It was the fact that her orbs were also gazing back at him.

Eyes to eyes.... None of them turned away.

"Dev, this is my best friend Tara. I have told you na?" Sona gleamed as she introduced Tara to Dev.

"Hi Tara..." Dev shook hands with Tara. Her face brightened when she came face to face with Dev. She hadn't expected to meet Dev in such a close proximity. Seeing him in television was okay.... but in real he looked too good to be true.

"H-hello..." she grinned brightly, and her hands shivered when she shook hands. "I... well, I am sorry.... I am a little clumsy. I can't believe that I got to meet you today. A big fangirl" she chuckled, and Dev smiled at her.

"Oh that's really okay. Trust me, Sona speaks a lot about you that now, I've become your fan too" Dev said and Tara smiled at Sonakshi.

"If you don't mind, can I take a picture with you, please??? Only with Sona's permission" Tara pinched her throat and Sona laughed at her friend's clumsiness.

"Well, I don't think my wife would mind..." Dev gave an evil grin and Sona playfully punched him on his sides.

"Aw, come on. I don't mind at all" Sona said and allowed Tara to take a click with Dev. She was so used to see Dev being mobbed by girls in the roads and forcefully taking pictures with him. But after seeing Tara's shivering fingers, Sona felt like laughing out loud. Tara reminded Sona of her own self in so many ways. Just that Tara was a bit more courageous.

This girl was just too adorable for her own good.

When Dev agreed for the picture, Tara was already floating on cloud nine. She couldn't believe her luck. Who wasn't a fan of Dev Sharma in London? Taking a picture with him was a dream come true and Tara had finally reached those dreams. Tara couldn't wipe that girlish grin from her lips as she mumbled a thanks and quickly hopped off from the place.

Still looking at the picture in her phone she kept swaying around until she bumped into a tall person. She almost fell flat on the floor, when a large pair of hands pulled her up. Tara's heart skipped a beat as she realised how close she was to death. Arjun stared at her vividly as she examined her phone's state carefully.

"Are you okay?" he cleared her throat and she just looked up and nodded.

"Pay attention to where you're walking young lady!" he said, but her attention was all on her phone.

"I took a picture with your friend. See!!!!" she immediately showed him the picture with a wide smile on her face. Arjun was taken aback as that was the first time, she spoke to him normally. Her smile was indeed contagious. He took her phone in his hand and looked at the picture with a smile. Well, fan girls!

It took a few seconds for Tara to realise that she was behaving like a lunatic infront of Arjun. Her eyes widened and she instantly grabbed back her phone from Arjun's hand.

"Goddd... why am I even showing this to you?" she mumbled, and Arjun chuckled.

"Well, too bad. The damage is done. Stop drooling at my friend... He's married, and he loves his wife a lot. Okay?" Arjun smirked and Tara's eyes widened.

"Excuse me.... I am not a marriage breaker. And I love my friend a lotttt" Tara stated with narrowed eyes and placed her hands on her hips.

"I didn't say anything... and" Arjun raised his hands in surrender and smiled. "Your father was telling me about your marriage next year. Congrats..."
