Hello everyone,

I have a quick question... It is regarding the next short story I am posting.... I am confused which one to post.

What would you guys prefer?

Bewitched (It has 17 parts + Epilogue) - It is a fantasy love story.

Dancing At Midnight (it has prologue + 9 parts) - It is a feel good love story.

Tum Mere Ho (it has 4 parts) - it is a love story

Lemons & Lemonade (it has 4 part) - it is a love story.

I will post according to the preference of everyone.

The Elevator

Abhishek Prem Mehra hurried to the lift, he couldn't believe of all days today he is late. He is supposed to meet the prospective bride today and he was late for that. The meeting had taken forever to finish and now he was whole of ten minutes late. Finally the lift decided to grace him with it's presence and Abhishek quickly got in and pressed the button for the rooftop restaurant. The lift was about to close when it again opens, Abhishek looks up in irritation when she entered. Pragya Arora. The prospective bride. Abhishek starts grinning, even she is late.

Abhishek was about to say hello to her when he noticed that she was talking on the phone and looks like she didn't really notice him if he was to go by the lack of reaction from her side.

"Disha, I'm so tensed. I just don't know what I'm going to do...... yeah yeah I remember everything. *taking deep breaths and confidently says* I'll handle this Bhishkoo.... hey let's go through it one more time... movie won't start for another five minutes Disha.... wait... one last time... Disha? Hello? "

Abhishek who was listening to her conversation starts frowning handle Bhishkoo? BHISHKOO? How did she find that out?

"Hello." he hears Pragya saying, he turns his attention back to her.

Is she blind? I'm standing next to her and she is looking at the door?

"Hi" she says again.

"Erm.. hi... I'm here." Abhishek replies really wondering whether she had some problem with her eyes.

Pragya suddenly turns to look at him frowning "I'm not talking to you." she informs him.

Confused Abhishek starts looking around for the third person in the elevator.

"I'm practicing." Pragya says irritated seeing him looking around.

"Oh." Abhishek says thoughtfully. Is she crazy? She is practicing in front of me what she is going to talk to me? And why is she not recognizing me?

"I'm Pragya Arora, I finished my post-graduation..."

Is she here to see me or for an interview?

Suddenly everything goes dark and the lift comes to a halt.

"What happened?" both of them asks out loudly shocked and tensed.

The emergency light starts blinking and then it turns on.

"What is it? Did the electricity go? Power cut?" Pragya asks.

"I don't know." Abhishek replies and he picks the phone to talk to operators.

"What did they say?" Pragya asks him seeing him hang up.
