Turn of Life

56.A day with her

"You dumb! I'm in the living room and she's in the restroom. And don't you know my character?" I questioned her back.

"Yea, I know the ACP's character" she said and I shook my head in disbelief.

"Ok now, jokes apart. Tell me, is anything serious? Why did you call me this early in the morning?" I asked her.

"It's 9 ACP sir, what early morning?" She said.

"Ok whatever, tell me what's the reason?" I asked her.

"Geez, calm down. I wonder who will marry this hot head. She's so unlucky! I already pity her!" Here goes her melodrama.

"Woman! I have some other work too other than listening to your rants. I'm not Harish if you forgot" I teased her. I know that they both finally opened up to eachother in the camp and I'm genuinely happy for her.

"Hmm, yea. Ok listen, we have to meet up as soon as possible" she said seriously.

"We? I mean who all? And why?" I asked her.

"I have only one mouth, so slow down, will you?" Gosh! Her drama is never ending!

"We in the sense Preeti, Kiran, Priya, Ritu, you and I. We all have to meet regarding Yash's case. I have something very important to tell you guys" she said.

"Ok but I think Preeti and Kiran are out of India right?"

"Yea, they are returning tonight. So we'll meet up tomorrow. I'll message you the time and venue after discussing with the others" she said.

"Tomorrow is Sunday and I planned to stay with my beauty sleep but you devil, you ruined it. You are a true devil, do you know that?"

"I know I am spoiling your Sunday. So instead of sleeping tomorrow, why don't you get your beauty sleep today?" She asked.

I would like to do that but today I promised myself to take Ritu out today. So not possible. But I'm sure it'll be more fun that my sleep.

"Or is someone going on a date?" She added and how does she know that? I didn't even tell Ritu about it.

"I know you idiot. Remember we were close to eachother in our childhood? Of course why will you remember? You have got someone special who occupied whole of your thoughts and mind, or should I say heart?" She teased me and I kinda blushed a little.

True devil!

"Shweta, this is enough. I'm hanging up. Meet you tomorrow" I said ending the call, not before hearing her giggles.

I sat on the sofa waiting for her. I was thinking about Shweta and what she said just now. She said it's something related to Yash. What might be hidden now? I have almost research everything about him and to be honest I found no fault or anything that rose my suspicion. I arrested him on doubt only because of Shweta and her friend Kavya. I feel very pity for Kavya. She had to go through so much in her life in such an age. I don't understand why is god so cruel when it comes to girls like her.

I was in my own thoughts when I heard someone behind me closing the door. I turned to see the love of my life Ritu. She was looking so gorgeous that I can't take my eyes off her.

She was wearing a pink maxi dress which covered her from head to toe. It has beautiful floral print and she just looked like a doll, a pretty doll.

I was lost looking at her when she clicked her fingers in front of me. I shook my head to ignore my thoughts about her and payed attention to her.

"What are you thinking so seriously?" She asked and still my eyes are glued to her. She's just like an angel arrived from heaven in a pink dress.

"An angel" I blurred out and her face got a tint of pink shade.

I realised what I said and just cursed myself under my breath.

"Umm.. actually I was.. I was thinking about Shweta" I said and the next moment I regretted it.

"What? Why were you thinking about her?" Anger was clearly visible in her tone and I felt happy to see her getting jealous. I do have some effect on her, isn't it?

"No, not about her. About what she said" I cleared her unnecessary thoughts and doubts.

"What did she say?" Now have was back to her sweet self. I just love how she changes her voice from second to second. So cute!

"She wants to meet us tomorrow regarding Yash" I said and she nodded.

"What about Yash? Did he do anything again now? I swear I'll kill him if he hurts my Kavya again" again her tone was angry. God! I just wanna pull her cheeks now. She's too cute to resist.

"No, he didn't do anything. And I don't know what she wants to talk. Let's see tomorrow. She asked us to join her. She'll message me the details of the meeting after she discusses with the others" I said and she nodded.

"So let's go?" I asked her.

"Umm, where?" She asked innocently.

"Let's go out somewhere, of you are free. Otherwise no pressure. If you have nay work then, maybe I.." she cut me off.

I was rubbing my nape with my right hand. This is the first time I'm asking a girl to hangout with me. I have never been so close to any woman other than my mom.

"I'm free now, so let's go" she said and held my hand. I felt electrified that moment. That's the moment I realized she's the one for me. No one ever can give me suggestions feelings. I love her madly and deeply.

"Oops, one minute" she said and left my hand to run inside her room.

I suddenly missed the warmth of her hold. She's definitely so much into my system that I can't live without where anymore.

I promise to make you fall in love with me Ritu.
I promise to take care of you like the most precious diamond I'm the world.
I promise to cook for you in weekends.
I promise to make you the most happiest girl in the world.
I promise you to love you the way you deserved to be loved.

I love you Ritu!

I was brought back from my thoughts when I saw the most beautiful girl on the world hopping towards me with the chocolate bar in her hand. She's truly a kid, my first kid.

"Let's go" she held my hand again and I felt alive again.

"So where do you wanna go?" I asked her as she was licking the chocolate in her hand. I chuckled at her and she pointed me to hold the bar.

I held it and she tucked her hair behind her ear but it kept falling on her face. I kept the chocolate bar on her hand back on her hand and helped her with her hair. I clipped it on the side and she thanked me with a smiled

We rode off to the nearby cinema theater in my ford figo and reached the place within half an hour. We listened to songs on the way and she sang along pleasing my ears. When did I become this lucky?

We reached the place and booked the ticket for Insidious: the last key. I came to know that it's a horror film and thanked God for it. It's going to be a long day and the best day I guess.
