Next day, Darshan was sleeping till noon. It was 1 PM when he woke up with the sound of his phone ring. He got annoyed and took his phone immediately.

While looking at the screen, D - kon h itni subah subah

He saw the caller was noother than Ritu. He was blank for a while then observed his surrounding and saw it was 1 PM. He wondered how he slept this late then remembered the previous day and got serious again. He picked the call.

D - hello
R - hello Darshan jaldi se aa jao
D - kha
R - are humare ghar aur kha
D - par kyu...aaj bhi safayi krwani h kya
R - nhii jiske liye safai krwayi thi uske liye bula rhi hoon

He didn't get what she said.

R - are Armaan aa rha hai kuch ghanto mein isiliye bula rhi hoon

His heart got heavy as he heard this.

D - oh
R - haa toh ready hokar aa jao jaldi se
D - par m kyu aaun

D - mujhe kaam h tumlog mil lo

He spread his arms, took a deep breath.

D - ok relax Darshan.. it's ok. Its totally ok. Tu uska friend h bas aur kuch nhi..I know it would take time for you to digest but you have to. Atleast don't lose your friend in rush of making her girlfriend. Yeahh...I will be her friend. I WILL BE.

He thought of her for a while then shook his head and went to get freshen up. He then left for their place after an hour. He reached there half an hour before the time for Armaan to come. He sat in the living room with Ritu. She noticed his mood off today.

R - Darshan
