“Where are we going?”, I asked him.
“Where you think, we are going” He’s staring at me with amusement.
“ How would I know that,” I said frustratingly, We finished our work earlier in the office.
He told me, we were going somewhere after work. I thought he will tell me. But No! he’s so adamant!
“ You will know once we reach there, now relax” He gave me side glance while driving.
After a few miles away he stopped.
“ Are you serious?” I asked him with a shock.
It’s a famous Indian restaurant here, and rick told me yesterday it’s best in here.
“ Someone once told me, you were missing special food” He winked.
“ Dean told you, didn’t he?” He laughed and that’s the answer to my question. He opened my door and smiled, Damn his mischievous smile.
“ What,” I asked him and we start walking through doors, he must be here frequently because everyone in here was smiling and nodding at him.
“ Just thinking, if it is my first official date” He joked.
I laughed “ Bet you’ll regret that”  He is now officially out of his mind.
“ What if I won’t regret that?” He shoots back, Well, I can’t answer to that because partially I don’t know that thing. And it’s not the date at all.
We took our seats and Man! This restaurant is really amazing.
“ So, tell me how many members do you have at home,” He asked abruptly in the middle of dinner.
“ Me, brother and mom” I shrugged. He must know that, what’s the point to know that thing again.
“ Hum_ What about dad, I don’t know about him” I stopped eating and gulped down. I really hate to say those words to anybody.
“ He passed away, years ago” I looked down at my plate and he placed his hand over mine.
“ Sorry, I didn’t know that,” I don’t understand, why would people always say sorry to that, as if it’s their problem,
They’re not with us that’s our unfortunate destiny and We can’t let them go away that’s our love towards them.
The rest of the meal I was silent and I wasn’t hungry anymore, Those thoughts and memories make me nauseous.
“ You are very quiet, I don’t want you to be upset,” He noticed me as We were heading back to his house for that crazy work and I need fresh air to breath in.
“ No, I don’t want to think about that” That was the real thing. Sometimes wounds heal but that scars will not fade away and I have two of them.
The one on my wrist proof of, I wasn’t capable to try enough to save Rishabh and another in my heart.
