Ek Duje Ke Vaaste

Part 5

After a long battle with her own mind, Khushi slipped her phone back into the pocket deciding not to text back, she turned to look at Krystle who wouldn't stop looking at Arjun.

"Suman, can you please go and get something from the kitchen so we can put all this vegetables in it?" I looked at Suman who nodded and stood up as she headed to the kitchen.

"Isn't my brother hot?" Khushi smirked as she looked at Krystle.

"Sorry what?" Krystle looked at her in surprise.

"Arjun, I can notice how you aren't able to take your eyes off him, do you like him? You know I love playing cupid, I've been doing that from Prem and Suman too." She looked at Krystle excitedly, Krystle just blushed as she looked at the floor.

"Umm, I was expecting yes or no as an answer." Khushi said.

"How about I don't have an answer?" She smiled.

"There is an answer, maybe you are too shy to tell me because I'm his sister, don't worry I can keep a secret. I mean just look at him, I've always seen girls staring at him wherever he went." Khushi said as she turned around to look at Arjun and Krystle joined her.

Arjun was standing with a couple of his employees and they were busy laughing about something, every few minutes he would run his hand through his hair and he looked damn sexy while he did that.

"Why is he so perfect?" Krystle whispered.

"Well he is my brother, how can he not be perfect." Khushi boasted.

"Well yeah that's all, I just find him perfect, I do not like him or anything, besides even if I did like him, it won't change much, everyone knows about his no dating policy." Krystle shrugged.

"So that's it, you're going to get scared because he has a no dating policy and do nothing about your feelings? I mean look at this world, it's so big and we have like one percent chance of finding the perfect partner for us, why would you let that go?" Khushi said.

"Aren't you more mature than your age?"

"A lot of people say so." She laughed, when it came to love, she was always more mature than her age, not that Krystle was in love with Arjun, but there was possibility and she seemed like a good girl and her brother deserved to find love.

Khushi slapped her forehead laughing at herself, here she was advising Krystle when she was ignoring text from "Mr. Writer", the first ever guy she had a chance of talking to. Life was too short to ignore someone she felt like talking to.

She pulled the phone out of her pocket and ignoring the consequences it might bring later, she decided to text back.

"Hello Mr. Writer" She typed the message and sent it, sliding back the phone in her pocket, she stood up and headed to the kitchen to find Suman who hadn't come back yet.

She stopped at the door when she found Suman standing next to the kitchen and Prem standing far away from her, the both of them weren't really talking to each other but the situation yet felt somehow intense.

This two did like each other, they were just too stubborn for life.

"Now I get why you are taking forever to bring a simple utensil." Khushi said as she walked in.

"I came here to drink water only." Prem said as he walked away in a hurry leaving Suman alone with Khushi.

"Your kitchen is big, it's hard to find stuff." She said.

"Is that so?" Khushi folded her arms and looked at her seriously.

Once the food was ready and everyone had eaten, they decided to start playing some games, before which Khushi excused herself to use the washroom.
