I liked this song. I liked this song so much that I could make it my ringtone, alarm tone, everything. Wait it was my alarm tone once. But no I didn't put a alarm now. Then?

Is my phone ringing? Yes, it is still my ringtone.

I tried to reach to my phone without opening my eyes. My hands fell on my phone and as soon as I reached to it, it stopped ringing. I opened my eyes and it took me some moment to realise where I was. I fell asleep on the sofa. My phone rang again. I looked at the screen, Mr. Neighbour. I received the call instantly.

"Hello Darshan. Is everything okay? Why are you calling so late?", it freaked me every time people call at late night.

"Open the door.", he whispered.

"What?"

"Open the door.", he said again. I walked to the door and opened it. He was standing there fit and fine with a smile on his face.

I am gonna kill him.

"What are you doing here?", I asked.

"Come with me. I have to show you something.", he said grabbing my hand.

"I am not going anywhere.", I told.

"Jiya please. It's important."

"Your important things are never really important so no.", I turned around but he started dragging me by my hand.

"No Darshan leave me.", it came out as a cry.

"Jiya tell your lover boy to shut up or I will throw both of you out of my house.", Maanav's voice came from his room.

"Shut up Maanav.", I shouted softly.

"Did he call me your lover boy?", Darshan asked.

"No he thought you are someone else."

"You have some other lover boy?"

"Oh god Darshan shut up."

"Yah actually I should shut up and you should come with me."

And he dragged me till his apartment. We walked to the room, which was used to be my bedroom. I walked in and my mouth went wide for a second.

"What did you do to my room?", I asked looking all around.

"I made it my studio.", he exclaimed.

"Now sit down and here it. I made this tune just few minutes back."

"Darshan its 3 am. I have office tomorrow. I don't go to office at 2 pm like you.", I told.

"I don't either."

I faked a cry and lied down on the couch.

"Jiya.", he pulled me up, "Wake up and listen to this.", he tapped on my cheek.

"Play it I am listening.", I rubbed my eyes and sat straight.

He played something in his computer. It was a audio of 30-32 seconds. As it stopped I said, "Play it again."

He pressed the play button. I closed my eyes and said, "Play it on loop till I tell you to stop."

I didn't know how long I did hear it on loop. But when I finally opened my eyes I saw Darshan looking at me with big eyes, definitely asking for a review.

"So?", he asked, "How's it?"

"It-", I stretched my legs on the couch and leaned back, "is amazing."

A wide smile formed on his face.
"Yah?"

I nodded with a smile. "You are good at it. You should take it more seriously."
