"You can try all you want to make him love you, Anika but he will never love you. Because he has given his heart to me along ago." She said looking at me hatred in her eyes.

We were casually talking after eating our late lunch when my phone indicated I had a new message. Knowing it was definitely Kartavya, I moved towards my phone with a smile.
"Oho madam ki smile tho dekho." I just rolled my eyes and took my phone.
(Oh look at her smile)
Unknown number: Bohat din rukh gaya abh intezar nahi hora. Jald hi milenge.
(I waited long enough for you, not anymore. We will meet soon.)
What? Who was this?
"Hey guys suno." I called for everyone's attention. "Kya tum log iss number ko jante ho?"
(Hey guys listen)
(Do you guys recognize this number?)
"What number?" They all came and stood next to me. I showed them the text.
"Who is this?" Shaurya had furrowed his eyebrows. "Let's check this number?" He took his phone out and checked the number to see who this was. "Arrey yeh koi Rishab hai janti ho kya ise?"
(It's someone called Rishab, do you know him?)
"No you know all my friends right. I don't know any Rishab."
"Wrong number ho ga. Maybe text back and see what they have to say?" Sakshi said.
(Maybe its wrong number)
"Haan text back and see." Shaurya replied to the text.
Me: Who is this?
We were waiting for the person to text back but he didn't even after ten minutes.
"Let's wait till he texts back okay." I just shrugged and we all went back to having fun.
"So when is Kartavya coming?" Sakshi asked after we all settled down.
"He should be here by 4:30." I looked at my phone to check the time to see it was 4 o'clock.
"Atul do you have a girlfriend?" Ishani asked out of nowhere. He blushed so hard his whole face was red. "Arrey itna kya sharma na bhai.'" We all laughed seeing him shy.
(Why are you so shy?)
"Tho hai kya girlfriend?" I wiggled my eyebrows at him.
(So do you have a girlfriend)
"Kya Anika aap bhi. Pata hai na aap ko mujhe abhi sirf apne job and college pe concentrate karna hai."
(Anika not you too. You know right I'm only concentrating on my job and college)
"Haan I know." I smiled. He was trying to provide for his family and pay his brother's school fees. "Acha phir Riya kon thi?" I asked, trying not to laugh. The poor guy looked like a deer caught in a red light and blushed hard.
