Priyanka.

I woke up this morning praying for relief. It was Sunday. Sameer was calling. I picked up.

"Hey princess."

"I'm not your princess, Sameer."

"I just said princess, not my princess. You could be your Daddy's princess."

"I accept my defeat Sameer. I can't win against you."

"My pleasure, Your highness."

"Any special reason to call this Sunday morning?"

"Yes. A very special reason. Remember five days back we were supposed to meet and I had to tell you something important?"

"Yeah. I remember that day very well Sameer."

"Are you still angry about that day?", he asked a bit worried.

"No. Not much. But I'm hurt by Varun's behaviour. I guess he overreacted."

"Not guess, Priyanka. He actually over reacted. Anyways, I don't wanna talk about it and spoil my mood."

"Yeah, better."

"So.. Can we meet today? Anytime you say. At my place, so there is no possibility for Varun to come between us."

"Oh god Sameer!"

"What?"

"Nothing. I'll meet you at 4pm."

"Okay. Bye princess."

"Bye Sameer."

Sameer was a funny and cute guy. I was quite fond of him. Varun had never been so nice to me. Yet, I fell for him. Nirav had rightly said - 'I was really mad and crazy about him.'

I reached at Sameer's place around four. He welcomed me with a smile.

"So... tell me Sameer, what's so important?"

"Umm.. I don't know how should I tell you this.. but.. you know now-a-days, I feel so good about everything!"

"Sameer. Speak up clearly!"

"I love Namrata", he said with eyes closed, like a girl confessing her love to a boy. I couldn't control myself and I started laughing on his facial expression.

"What? Why are you laughing?"

"The way you said that Sameer. You... it was so funny", and I continued laughing.

"Now just stop laughing, will you?"

"Okay, okay."

After a long pause, I continued, "So what's your plan?"

"Can you please make a place in Namrata's heart for me?"

"Yeah, sure Sameer. Any girl would be happy to have a lover like you." I completed with a wink.

"Oh, so now you have also started flirting, huh?"

"Yeah, yeah. It's healthy, right?" He bursted laughing and then continued, "I'll get something for us."

"No need Sameer. It's okay."

"No it's not. I'll just come", before I could  say anything else, he left the room. Meanwhile I sat gazing the artifacts and pictures in his room. Suddenly my phone rang. It was Varun. As soon as I read the name - Varun, a nerve ran down my body. I picked up the call.

"Hello", I said in a low tone. I couldn't help it and say it joyfully.

"How are you?" I heard Varun's voice from the other side.

"If that's what you called for, I'm fine. Thank you."

"Don't you think you've started being rude Priyanka?"

"Not unless you've repeatedly done things to upset me."

"I'm really sorry Priyanka. I... I..."

He was just about to complete his statement when Sameer entered. "Here I come princess with some coffee, cookies and blueberry cheese cake." He said in his loud and flirty tone.

"Umm.. Thank you." I said and then tried to hear something from Varun. The first statement I heard from him, "Where are you?"

"At Sameer's place", I said with a slight stammer in my voice that usually happens when I'm nervous.

"I'm sorry for disturbing your conversation once again."

Before I could reply, he hung up the phone. Again a misunderstanding! I was just so tired of this tension building in my mind since more than a week. I got so busy with my thoughts that I forgot that Sameer was standing right in front of me. I gave him a smile and he imitated the same. Then he offered me some cookies, said beside me and asked, "You like Varun, right?"

"No. Are you mad? We're just friends. There's nothing like you thinking." I lied to him assuringly.

"There's no need to hide stuffs from me. That's completely okay. If you don't wanna accept now, leave it. But someday, you'll surely accept it", he said with a bright smile.

I smiled back. After an hour of laughing, smiling and enjoying, I left Sameer's place. I immersed myslef into deep thoughts of Varun.
