DQ#1 Thousand Reasons Why

Something Else

Aradhya's POV

" What has Ms. Roy said?" Juliet asked checking the lyrics of the new track which we were going to record in awhile. I sighed deeply.

" She hasn't said anything yet. I am so worried about her decision." I said to her.

" No worries everything will be fine." She said.

" I hope so." I said to her. 

" By the way, how is Mr. Bradley doing?" She asked me and I smiled.

" He is doing great. He is staying at Dad's place these days. He was very lonely so, Dad invited him to move in with him." I said to him.

" Mr. Malhotra did a right thing." She said and I nodded.

" He is my father. You have to understand. Making things right is in our genes." I said and she rolled her eyes.

" I forgot the name of the girl who always comes to me after messing things up. Do you know her?" She asked me and I rolled my eyes.

" You and I are not different, Lettie. We are soul sisters and it's my right to come to you whenever I need any help. You can't complain about it. Shame on you." I said and she rolled her eyes.

" That Drama Queen name suits on you very much." She said.

" Oh, really?! Who throws tantrums whenever things are not according to her own ways?" I asked her. She rolled her eyes.

" I am perfectionist." She said.

" Yeah, perfectionist in the sense of clumsiness." I said to her and she twisted her lips.

" Leave it. Tell me do you want to have your father's surname officially?" She asked me and I looked at her weirdly.

" I haven't thought about it yet. But I don't think it will be a good idea. I mean I can't leave my mother's surname. I had that only identity since the day we were kicked out of the house. I can't change it. That's my true identity." I said to her.

" Don't change it. Just add your father's name too. Problem solved." She said and I kept looking at her weirdly. She sighed and took the paper and pen before writing my name. Aradhya Roy Malhotra. I kept looking at the paper weirdly for awhile.

" It sounds weird." I said.

" It sounds perfect." She said.

" I don't know. But for now I am not thinking about it." I said to her.

" Think about it." She said.

" Ok. I will. Let's rehearse at first." I said to her.

" You are trying to avoid this matter." She said.

" I need to talk to my father before taking any decisions." I said to her. She smiled. I was saying something but my phone started to ring and it was Asher's Mom. I picked the call up at once. 

" Hello, Mrs. Milverton." I said to her.

" Hey, Ari. Where are you?" She asked me.

" I am in the studio. Are you in the town?" I asked her.

" Yes. I am home. You forget the birthday?" She asked me.

" No. I do remember that it's Mr. Milverton's birthday tomorrow and I do have my plans too. I will see you this evening. Are you free or you have a plan to go on a date with Mr. Milverton?" I asked her and she chuckled.

" I am free today. I told Mr. Milverton that I am busy with my friends this evening." She said and I chuckled.

" Ok, then. I will be in Sejal's Dine at 6:00." I said to him. She chuckled.

" I will be there." She said and I chuckled. "You do your works. I will call you later." She said and hung up the call. I chuckled and kept the phone aside. Juliet chuckled.

" What happened?" I asked her but she shook her head.

" Ari, you remember once upon a time you were very upset that you don't have s father with you. But see now, you have everything. Your father too." She said and I sighed deeply then smiled.

" I am not regretting about that anymore. I have a lot of people around who loves me dearly. I don't need anything else." I said to her. She smiled.

" Ariiiiiiiiii!!!" I heard Heidi.

" What happened?" I asked her.

" See?!" She said and showed me the comments below the photo that I posted last week. It was with Asher. I rolled my eyes.

" I am ready to deal with it, D. You don't have to worry about it." I said to her. She shook her head.

" It's not about you, Ari. Think about Asher. You have fans all around the world. You can have fans at his college too. Just think how will he handle this?!" She asked me.

" Asher is not a little kid that he will be afraid or uncomfortable with this situation. He took this decision himself." I said to her.

" I don't think this is going to be that easy." She said and I chuckled.

" Asher can manage everything. He is my boyfriend and the world should know that." I said to her. She sighed deeply.

" I never thought you two would be together?" Whitney said.

" I had that doubt from the start. Asher's eyes used to be glued on Ari all the time. My cousin had a huge crush on Ari and he literally freaked out when he saw the post." Jordana said and I rolled my eyes.

" You cousin is a stupid. I always disliked him from the start." I said to her and she chuckled. He will have a heart attack if he knows that you have said that to him. I chuckled.

" He should." I said and she laughed.

" There are a lot of hearts who got heart break seeing your post." Whitney said and I chuckled.

" The day you get a boyfriend when the Britain will get a heart attack. You have the highest followers among all of us, Whitney." Juliet said and I chuckled. She rolled her eyes.

" Like really?!" Whitney asked.

" Yes, Queen of England." Jordana said and I laughed as Whitney rolled her eyes. Juliet was looking out of the window and narrowed her eyes. I followed her gaze and found Gabi talking to Cassius. May be he dropped her here in the studio. What is going on between them?! I talked to Asher. Has he taken any steps already or is there something else??!
