'A get together?'Aryan was in phone with his college friend,'Why was I completely unaware of this fact?I mean you guys have been planning it for months & I get to know about it now?Like seriously!'

'Listen....'The caller on the other side started.

'Okay fine!I'll be there,'Aryan interrupted him,'Just text me the time & address of the place.'

He threw his phone on the bed after cutting off the call.

Nothing seemed to interest him these days but he'll go there anyway.

When Aryan reached the place later that evening,he was surprised not to find anyone he knew near the gate.

When asked,the waiter showed him a compartment booked for the get together.

When he stepped into the room,the door closed behind him & the room appeared dark completely.

'Is this some kind of...'

He couldn't finish the sentence when the lights burst out before his eyes.

At first,he was unable to see anything but when his eyes slowly adjusted to the bright light,he was shocked!

Aradhya was standing right before his eyes!

He was unable to take his eyes from her at first.

She looked so pretty in that black sari!

Her untied hair was lying just infront of her shoulders & two looped earrings were dangling from her ears.

But her smile caught his attention most;the simple curved smile was radiating so much happiness except that...it might be not for him...

He turned away suddenly to leave when Aradhya caught his hand.

'Three years Zero IQ!Three years!Yes that's how long you have annoyed him.Did you actually think I would let go of you so easily?'A mischievous smile appeared in Aradhya's face as Aryan turned towards her.

'What do you mean?'Aryan tried to appear serious,at the same trying hard not to make any eye contact;he knew he would fall in love with her again if he did.

Aradhya slowly picked his right hand & wrapped it inside both of hers.

'You know whole life I have been waiting desperately for my Mr Right to show up,'Aradhya looked directly into his eyes,'After visiting USA,I finally felt like I should stop waiting & should start searching for him.'

Being so close with Aradhya,Aryan was finding it difficult to control his emotions especially when she was looking right into his eyes.

'So I started looking out for guys & even went into dates.'

Aryan looked away suddenly.

'No please listen,'She turned his face towards him,'Yeah I did went but then I realized the kind of guy I was looking for had been before me the whole time,only I was ignorant enough to realize.'

Aryan looked a bit confused.

'It was you dumbo!You!'Aradhya exclaimed excitedly,'Yes,I love you!I love you so much that I always see your picture in other guys.'

'It was you who was always with me in thick & thin;you who supported me always;you who made me feel loved;you who always filled my life with laughter & happiness.It was always you!'

Aryan waited only for the few seconds to sink the words in him & when it did he rushed to hug her tightly.

'I love you Aradhya,'He was almost crying,'I love you so much..I thought if my expressed my feelings to you,you will left me forever...so instead I moved away..I was so..so afraid,'This time the tears didn't stop & went on spilling down his cheeks.

'I can never ever leave you Zero IQ,'Aradhya whispered in his ears,'You are my lifeline remember?'

Finally after Aryan had composed himself,they went on to cut the cake that Aradhya had arranged to celebrate their special day.

'So what happened to you friend's boyfriend's friend,huh?He dumped you or something,'Aryan joked with the cake in his mouth.

'You know me,'Aradhya acted cool,'I happened to feel pity on some dumbo who was just crazy about me for a long time,so instead I dumped that guy & decided to give the dumbo a chance.'

'Dumbo huh!'

'Ofcourse!'Aradhya rolled her eyes.

Aryan began to tickle her instantly loving the sound she made while laughing.
