[Aditi]
As soon as I entered my bedroom... The first thing I wanted to do was get rid of the heavy sari I was wearing. I unlaced the lace of my blouse just when my bedroom door clicked open revealing the lazy guy with a Colgate smile smeared on his lips. Darshan. As soon as I saw him, I turned around. "Did you have your breakfast? ", he asked softly. "No.. But I will", I replied and he nodded his head negatively. "I knew it... I brought some food... Just have it on time.. ", he said and I briefly nodded. He noticed my facial expressions and then asked, "What's wrong? What are u hiding from me?", he asked. And the remembrance of the fact made me blush. "And now u r blushing too? ", he asked in a confused tone. He started moving towards my back and I too started leaping back... Careful enough not to reveal my bare back. "What are you doing darshan? ", annoyed.. I asked. "What are u hiding? ", he asked still peeking at my back. "No.. Nothing... U just go from here... I will have my breakfast.. ", I said so that he might go. "No.. I will make sure u eat the breakfast.. Who knows u will throw them and say u ate it all? ", his disbelief on me made me more angry. "Okay then... Wait here until I change.. ", I said and without realising I turned back. Shit!

Darshan's open jaw made me turn back instantly in shock. The reality hit me hard. "Woh... Woh.. I guess someone is calling me.. ", he said as he got up from his place and went out. Wait... His cheeks had turned to a lighter shade of pink. Was he blushing?

After changing to a regular blue T-shirt and a pair of jeans, I ate the breakfast Darshan had brought for me. Moments later my bedroom door clicked open to reveal Prakriti. She passed me a genuine smile as I kept the food aside. "Are u okay? ", she asked me. "Yes.. Why? ", I asked confused. "Darshan said what he saw and this whole time he is worried that what u might be thinking about him... If u can then just go and talk to him.. ", she requested. I let out a small laugh. "It was a mistake... ", I said. My choking tone revealed a hint of me. "Just go and talk to him once you have got time.. ", she said. "Okay.. ", I said as I passed down a smile. As soon as she left my room, I flexed my muscle letting out a long yawn as a result of my long left sleep for Darshan. I looked at the discarded food and then took it down. Throwing away the rest of the food, I put my dishes in the sink. I turned around to bump into uncle; rather my father. "S.. S.. Sorry uncle", I muttered lowering down my eyes and moved away from there as soon as possible. But he caught me. "Wait a second ", he yelled at me. I froze and turned towards him. "What is your name? ", he asked sternly. "A.. A.. Aditi.. Aditi Verma. ", I stammered. "What about your parents? ", he asked. But why? "I.. I am.. An orphan", I muttered. "How are you and Darshan related? ", he again cued up. "We.. Used to read in the same college.. Later I joined his office", I explained. "Lie.. You are muttering all lies to me... ", he said.
Freeze.
"No.. Uncle.. I ain't lying.. ", I muttered. "Then what about the spot near your earlobe? ", he asked. "That is inborn.. I don't even know how I got it.. ", I tried to muster up something. He somehow muttered "Okay" still looking unconvinced.

I moved away from him and then I saw Prakriti all tensed while talking to someone on phone. I went near her and asked her, "What happened? ". "My boutique caught fire", she replied all tensed. Without bothering to speak up anything else I said, "Then what are u doing here? Let's go... ". I dragged her to the fire caught boutique then what happened was hectic...

//So finally my exams are on 19th set to 1st Oct... Can u guys wait till then? //
