Arush Oberoi, the perfect man that every woman desires but his heart belongs only to that one who breaks it. Or he thought so. He is a focused man but his entire world turned upside down when his lost love came b...
The week passed with me avoiding Arush and him approaching me every chance he gets. I feel bad avoiding him but after finding myself tangled with him that morning I don't know how to face him without missing his touch. I still don't remember what had happened the other night and how I had ended up sleeping with Arush but I do know I don't regret it. And that thought is bad enough. I should feel bad but all I feel is his touch, his warmth. Though I felt relived after he told me nothing happened between us then why did a part of me feel disappointed.
A part of reason for avoiding him is also my date with Ishaan tonight. He asked me if I would like to go on a proper date now that Kiaan stays overnight at Arush's and I agreed because there was no reason to deny. I chose Ishaan so I better act like it. But that doesn't stop the guilt that rears its ugly face whenever I see Arush. I know we are not together so why am I feeling guilty going on a date? My head is so messed up and I don't know how to stop this.
I apply my mascara and lipstick and redo my hair. I try my best to look good tonight but my excitement is not top notch. Get it together Dhara. I adjust my dupatta as I look myself in the mirror. I'm wearing a black suit with my silver earrings and bangles. I hope Ishaan would like it but then he always compliment me whatever I wear.

I told him to meet me directly at the restaurant so I booked my cab. On the ride to the restaurant I dialled Sharvari to ask about how Kiaan is doing. She reassured me that he is having fun with them and I should solely focus on my date. I told her to keep this secret as I don't want anybody's feelings to get hurt. I know how Arush family wants us to get back but they never show. They always respect my privacy and never asked me the reasons for my decision.
"Hey beautiful" Ishaan hugs me when I arrives at the table.
"Hey there" I smile taking my seat.
"You look charismatic" he awes and I feel shy.
"You too." I say awkwardly. This is still a new territory for me. I always treated him as my friend.
"This feels weird right?" he gives me a small smile
"Yes. I mean we did this before but it feels different this time" I mumble
"Want to know a secret?"
"What?" I asked
"This is my first date like ever and I have no idea what to do so I'm kind of freaking out." he draws silently and we both burst out into laughter.
"God we are so bad at this" I chuckle
"Maybe but honestly I always wanted my first date with you. And now that you're finally here it still seems so unreal" he says gently
"I'm glad to be here" I speak now relaxing a little. I look at Ishaan closely. He is a gentleman with a sweet face that shows only kindness unlike Arush whose shows dominance. Ishaan is a handsome man that many women would want yet I don't feel any chemistry between us. It must be because we have been such good friends as long as I can remember. And I should seriously stop comparing him to Arush.
