Dear Aahi,

I know you might be wondering that why I'm writing this letter. Well, you haven't left any other option to me. So here I am, writing this epic and historic letter to you. You know girls would die to have a letter written by me for them but you....you are the lucky one (;

I shook my head at his funny antics with a smile adorning my lips. Literally, he was full of himself. 

See. This, this cute smile of yours really looks pretty on your face. So never stop smiling whatever happens in life because you don't have any idea how your one smile can make someone's day. Okay? 

My heart warmed at his words. 

I heard what happened there with Aarushi. I am not able to believe that she.........she is no more with us. That cute little angel, we used to play with, is gone. How can God be so unfair. My heart ached when dad gave me this news. It was a shock for me.

My eyes welled up at remembrance of the bitter memories. 

If I'm feeling like this then I can't even imagine how you, Nikhil, Naveen uncle and Arpita aunty would feeling, now. You all must be devastated. Uncle- aunty lost their daughter, you and Nikhil lost your sister but what about me? I lost my future girlfriend. No one cares about me. You remember I told her that I will marry her because she was way more beautiful than you but seems like I will have to marry you, now. 

I chortled out while tears flowed down my cheeks. This person couldn't be serious for once.

Sorry. Sorry. I know you want to punch me direct in the face but I can't help it. These mourning letters are not my thing. I don't know how to show my grief and sorrow to others but I can do feel them. I hope you understand me. I know, despite your little jealousy for little angel you loved her very much and it will be very difficult for you but always remember Aahi that she will always be there with you, with us in our heart. So, don't be sad.

Dad told me you got so much affected by the incident that you left India and went to London. He neither gave me your contact no. nor you contacted me once since I came to States but you both forgot that I have the address of your penthouse. See, I'm so smart! 

On a serious note Aahi, try to get over this incident. Not if  for yourself , atleast for your family. Go back to India, to your home. Think about your parents. They had just lost their one daughter, now they don't wanna lose the other.

Take your time and think about what I said.

Take care of yourself.

Yours_____

P.S - My first letter to my future wife (;

I didn't know what to do, whether to cry at my sister's death or laugh at Rhee's funny antics. He couldn't help himself with flirting. I had never read this kind of mourning letter which made me cry and laugh both at the same time.

It was the first letter I recieved from Rhee. Aubrey had called me the very next day of our conversation. She said that the sender hadn't written his name but the instant she told me that the letters came in the name of Aahi, I knew it was he. 

He was the one who had shortened my name to Aahi and in return I shortened his to Rhee. We both tried to do same with Nikhil but Nikh didn't sound good. So we dropped that idea and settled with Aahi and Rhee

I asked Aubrey to send letters to me as soon as possible. I couldn't wait to get a glimpse of old Rhee, a cheerful, hearty and flirt guy who was completely different from the present one.

He said in letter that I should have come back to India for my parents but he didn't know it was a lie. He thought I was taking away their daughter from them, only if he knew they didn't think same as him.

You know nothing Rhee.

I glanced over the other letters scattered on my bed. He had written me a bunch of letters in these past years which was so unlike of him. It scared me if I should read them or not. I had no idea what were they holding inside them for me.

Picking up the second letter I gently leaned against the head rest of my bed. Wiping off tear stains from face I slowly unfolded it.

Dear Aahi,

It has been two months since I wrote you and I waited impatiently to hear from you back. It was really disappointing when I didn't. Dad said you are still in London. I guess you are not over the incident yet and need more time. So, I'm letting it go for this time but only this time, okay?

I talked to Nikhil. He sounded very guilty for the incident. I don't know why was he blaming himself that you and  Aarushi left because of him. I tried to convince him, assure him that it was not his fault but he was so adamant. My best friend is in mess, Ahana. I can't see him like this. He is keeping something inside him. Please talk to him, maybe he will listen to his sister. I don't wanna lose my best friend.

I frowned. Nikhil?

Well, you didn't ask about me. So, I think I should tell myself. I'm good but the dorm I'm staying in is not so good. I have asked dad for an apartment. About city, this city is awesome. I got many new friends here and about girls.... Don't ask me. The girls are so hot and sexy, you know. All are of my type, different from typical Indian girls.

I would definitely give him a piece of mind for saying this.

Since I'm writing this letter then why do I smell something burning? Are you jealous Aahi? *Gasping* Then be. After all you are my future wife. You have all rights to be (;

Take care of yourself and don't worry about me. There are so many hot girls to care of me.

Eagerly waiting for your reply this time. Don't disappoint me again (:

Yours_____

P.S -  Send me your contact no. I sick at writing letters, please.

I chuckled reading postscript. He took so much pain in writing letters to me. I felt like laughing at his misery yet my heart warmed at his sweet gesture.

How I wish Rhee if I had gotten these letters at the right time. Situation would have been different today.

My subconscious grimaced inwardly.

Keeping the letter in my hands aside I leaned forward to get another one.

Maybe today, through these letters I will get to know what made him change to present Rhee.

So, this was it. An early short update.

What do you think about it? How was it?📝

And how do feel about the letters?💌

Do you liked the old Rhee?🤔❤️

Don't forget to share your views views with me. I will love to know about them 🤗😊❤️

Aahi and Rhee loves you all ❤️

Till then
