Love Again!

Shocking News

"Marriage. What are you saying..? I am not ready for my marriage. Sorry I am leaving."

Saying this I stood up and ran towards the balcony.

I sit on the floor looking at the sky and stars.
How things changed within hours. Not hours but minutes. 10 minutes ago I was so happy. Now suddenly I get to know that I am getting married in two weeks and leaving to London. I was engrossed in my thoughts so I didn't know someone had sat beside me until I sensed someone's hand on my shoulder.

"Why Sheets? You knew it. But you didn't tell me." I said sadly without looking the person.

"I'm sorry." I looked with shock and realised it was Rohit not Sheetal.

"Why are you here..? I want to sit alone." I was beyond annoyed.

" Hey, please listen to me. I know you are shocked. But trust me I too was." He said calmly.

I nodded. I guess I was not in a mood to argue. And I wanted to hear why they suddenly took such a decision.
" I came from London two days ago. Once we landed, my father, your father and the Dev Uncle - the three had a meeting along with our mothers. It was a long time we moved to London so they were catching up there all times. So suddenly they remembered the promise they had taken before. Your father had promised to my father that their children will marry to each other. And after that meeting, when my father and mother reached home I was busy in my room. They called me, and told me that they had arranged my marriage. I was beyond angry. My anger is not because they had this agreement, but because I was in love with someone."

"So you're not ready for this marriage, right...? Then what was the act earlier? It is bad to kiss someone if you really someone else." I was relaxed a bit hearing his story but it had gone when I remembered the kiss earlier. But I said it in a calm tone.

"Let me finish it darling." He said me sheepishly.

"I'm not your darling. And say what do you have to say." I was annoyed.

"I was living in India until I am 12. Basically as I was rich and popular among the students, I had admirers. But I really didn't like their attention. Because they were only clinging to me because of my money and popularity. I was fed up of attention. So..."

" I don't have much time to listen your full history and your charming stories. Make it fast I don't have time for your bullshit." I hissed. I was beyond angry of the revelation of my parents and the last thing I wanted to hear is his narration. I was always a calm girl. I don't know what made me hiss at me him.

"Okay. Let me make it fast. I know you are not in a mood to speak with me. But trust me. What I'm going to tell you is really important to me." I nodded and he continued.

"I am so fed up so I always will make excuses to get rid of the parties that my parents wanted me to attend. One day when I was coming back after the football practice, I realised that we have guest in our house. I get to know that my father's friend and his family had come and they will be having dinner with us. I thought that there will be other friends who always boast about there a house there a tradition their family and that kind of people. So I plan to get out of the house before they could notice me. So I charged to my room and get showered faster and I was about to get out of my house. Then my mother called me and said strictly that I should be there in the dinner. I couldn't deny my mother." He stopped and looked at me. He saw that I was listening to him, he continued the story.

"So I made myself into the balcony and sit in the swing there. I always had this thing for sitting in the balcony and looking up at the at the stars. So while I was sitting there, a girl of 8 years came with a doll in her hand."

********Flashback********
"Can I sit in the swing?" She asked me in her sweet voice.
"Uh.. Yeah." I stand up and sat on the floor.
"Thank you so much." She said smiling at me. I looked at her she has amber eyes and long beautiful locks. I don't know what caught up in my mind she was mesmerising.
"Are you Rohit Bhaiya?" She asked me.
"Yes I am. Who are you?" I asked her in a bit rude tone.
"My papa and mama told me while we are coming from house we are meeting uncle and aunt and they have a son named Rohit. And I should call him Rohit Bhaiya." She said in a cute voice. I chuckled a bit.
"What is your name?" I asked her.
My name is Inara. But everyone calls me Inu." I smiled of her voice she was really cute.
"But your name Rohit Bhaiya seems a long one. So instead I will call you Ro. It is cute right.? Did you like it..?" She asked and looked at me for my response.
"Yes." I found the name cute.
And she talked about everything and anything she knew about and I was listening to her.

"We introduce ourselves and she was a chirpy girl she talks a lot. She gave me a good company. When our maid called us downstairs for dinner I realised I have been with her for two hours."

"After that dinner I came to know about my dad's friend and his family and their daughter. They were nothing like the other friends my father had. They were quite friendly and I felt a connection with them."
"I was really enjoying her company. But within a month dad had got an opportunity to go London. Soon we all settled there. I couldn't even say a proper goodbye to her. But before I left I gave her my favourite football to her. I really loved her I don't know after going to London I had several flings but I with no one I had this connection. So when my when we get back here and got to know about this arrangement at first I was really angry but when I was told who the girl is I was really happy I know that I really love her." He stopped looking at me. He was waiting for my response.

"Oh okay then. Go and get your girl. That Inu... Wait, what..? Ro. Are you my Ro ..? I was about to stand up, but I stopped in tracks when the realisation hit her. I don't what came over, I hugged him.

I was complaining him about many things to which him he chuckled and hugged me back. 

I still remember the Ro. I really loved his company. Even though I was only eight, I always look up at him and followed him. But suddenly he left me without saying a proper goodbye. I was so mad at him. But before he left to London he give me a football and I kept it like a treasure in my room. I was so happy and surprised and shocked and to hear that the man in front of him and me is my Ro. I was jumping and laughing hysterically. I was so happy.
I got back my friend. My long lost friend.
