"In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me, there lay an invincible summer" ~ Albert Camus.

ABHISHEK'S POV (tadaaaa)

From the moment I laid eyes on her ~ man ! I knew I was a goner.
And to think that she likes me too ~ like she's been a fan ! It was so hard to believe. I definitely have to thank my lucky stars tonight.

Now, here I am lying down thinking about Sam, unable to sleep.

We had exchanged numbers, so I decide to text her.

Abhishek : Hey Sam ! You up? -Abhishek.
Samiksha : Yes, hi.
Abhishek : I had a lot of fun today. 😀
Samiksha : Me too ! Today was great.
Abhishek : we should go out again sometime. Just the two of us.
Samiksha : You mean like a date ? 😂🙈
Abhishek : why ? Would that be so bad ?
Samiksha : No, no.
Abhishek : So?
Samiksha : I'd love to.
Abhishek : Now that's great !!!
Samiksha : Don't you have a match ?
Abhishek : I'll plan and let you know.
Samiksha : I'll be looking forward to it.
Abhishek : Okay then.
Samiksha : Okay, goodnight, Abhay 😘
Abhishek : Night, Sam. Take care. ❤️

Wohoooo ! This is how it's done ! Yas ! I got myself a date with Sam. I can't believe it. I look over to Shubman who's fast asleep and I go and shake him up.

"Shubbbbiiiii" I screech "I'm going on a date"
"Now?" He mumbles , half-asleep.
"AREY stupid ! Uth" (oh stupid, wake up!) I shake him.

Suddenly he gets up.
"Oh shit"
"Kya Hua?" (What happened?) I ask
"Pallak" he holds out his phone and indeed it is Pallak - it is a text from Pallak.
I read it, "meet her Shub !"
"I want to" Shubman looks down.
"So you do. You're gonna meet her. Wait let me text her"  I tell him.
"No no. I'll do it Abhay"
"Shayad you forgot I'm better with words and I have just asked Sam out and she has just agreed so I am high on confidence right now. Let me. Girls tend to say yes to me." (I'm better with words, did you forgot? Also, I just asked Sam for a date so I'm high on confidence right now.) And I take the phone.
"Really? You going out ? With Samiksha? Whom you met just today?"
"I really like her." I admit.
"Kaise Kya !" (What? When?) Shubman asks.
"Pehle Bhabi ko text Phir baaki baatein baad Mai" (first lets text my sister in law, then we'll talk) I say and walk away from Shubman.

Shubman has never really been like this. He really really likes this girl. He doesn't get stuck like this, ever.
The way he calls out her name, talks about her - it's so evident. Anyone can take a look at his face and get the idea of how much he likes her.
I am different. If I was Shub I would have approached her and been straight about my feelings because I like who I like and Shub has these principles.
Now because he likes her so much , I'm gonna make it right for him.
I promise.
I'm even ready to beg to Pallak.
I'll do whatever it takes.

So what do you think of this ? Also , I know it's a short chapter but I am just trying to fit all the things into one.
So keep supporting.
Thankyou.
