2.26 Behind The Walls
That evening, I am standing in front of a rail of clothes hanging off the rod. I need to decide what to wear tonight and earlier in the day, Anjali had pulled together a few outfits. While they are all beautiful pieces, I just can't decide which one is... me. Taking one, I put the hanger in front of me, looking in the mirror to get an idea of how I would look in it.
I make a face at how hot pink clashes with my skin tone. One down. I return the hanger back with the others and look through the rest. A few seconds later, my phone on the dresser beeps. Walking the three steps towards it, I pick it up and unlock the screen.
Wear the white one.

It's a private number and I can only assume who could know what I am currently doing. I suppose now that he has let me know he is around, he deems it okay to text me - though I will have to wonder how he got my personal number. Sure, he may have his resources being in the army, but still - shouldn't getting hands on a private number prove to be impossible?
Jhanvi: Should I be creeped out?
Aarush: Change behind the screen and you shouldn't be.
Well, atleast that lets me know it's a blind spot with the camera and an assurance that he hasn't seen me indecent. I don't even know how long he's been around. Suddenly, I'm wondering. Did I ever change in my room while not behind the changing screen or in the bathroom? I hope not.
Jhanvi: We need to find you a healthy hobby.
He must be off his army duties and yet, this is what he chooses to do in time off.
Aarush: I already have one.
Jhanvi: Carving objects out of woods doesn't count.
