I was confused for a moment when I woke up and then I remembered that I had stayed back at the Raizada mansion and I was currently in the guest room.
I sat up and looked around as the whole of last night played at the back of my head, I had such a great time, everything about last night was so beautiful.
I walked towards the door and unlocked it to check if anyone was around or if they had woken up so I could at least inform someone before I leave, but it seemed like they were all still asleep, I had woken up at six o'clock as usual due to my habit of waking up at the same time daily.
I walked back to my bed and sat there wondering what to do, maybe I should just leave then text Arnav later that I had left.
Wait, did I even have his number?
I grabbed my phone and scrolled through my contacts realizing we never exchanged phone numbers, okay now I had no option that to wait and leave once someone was awake, leaving without informing anyone would be rude.
I sighed as I wondered what to do and then I did what I always did to entertain myself, played Darshan's music.
I had created a playlist on my phone with all his songs, so I turned the volume down so the music wouldn't go out of the room and started playing the music.
I walked around the guest room as Tere Naal played on my phone, I opened the cupboards one by one looking at what was inside and then I wondered whether I should take a shower or not, of course I didn't have clothes so I had to take shower after I got back home.
I opened the door of another cupboard which had a long mirror attached to it, I stood in front of it and looked at my reflection, I had even forgotten that I was wearing Arnav's pajamas.
They did look cute on me, and I loved the scent that was coming from them, they smelled so much like him, I was intoxicated.
I hugged myself and closed my eyes just trying to feel whatever feelings that I was feeling at the moment and my music seemed to have the perfect timing ever.
The song changed from Tere Naal and now Pehli Mohabbat was playing, I started humming along and just moving with the rhythm, someday I wanted to slow dance on this song with Arnav.
Oh God! Why was I dreaming too far?
Mera din bhi tu, meri shaam tu, meri raat ke sapno me tu...
Meri aahatein tera naam le, yeh baat tu maanle...
I brought my hands closer to my face so I could inhale his scent, I think I was going crazy but I dint care, no one here was watching me, I could do stupid things, like inhale the scent of the man I was so obviously attracted to.
Sau saal ka mera ek din na ho jisme teri tasveer na ho...
Behrukh si hai meri yeh zindagi jisme teri Khushboo na ho...
I wish I could ask him if he was attracted to me too, these feelings were now becoming overwhelming, I just wanted to tell him how much I liked him and that seeing him gave me goosebumps and I was even doing stupid things like inhaling his scents from his clothes, imagining weird scenarios with him in my mind and also hugging myself because I had worn his clothes just to make myself feel what it would be like to hug him.
Does everyone act like this when they get attracted towards someone and start liking them?
Meri pehli mohabbat, pehli mohabbat hai woh...
meri pehli mohabbat, pehli mohabbat, pehli mohabbat hai woh...
So far, I had just been attracted towards him, but after last night, I had started liking him, getting to spend more time with him and getting to know him was already making me like him so much, I was kind of scared what would happen if I got to know him a bit more than I did right now.
Was I going to fall in love with him? It dint sound bad, it sounded scary, I had never been in love, I dint even know how you were supposed to know when you were in love with someone.
I wouldn't mind having him as my first love though.
"Hey." I heard his voice, I turned around immediately and saw him standing at the door.
He was all ready, dressed up in his usually three-piece suit for work, and he looked hot as ever. I dint know what to do, rush to turn of the music on my phone, wonder why he just entered without knowing or admire how hot he was.
"I knocked but you dint respond and I could hear the music so I guessed you dint hear my knocks because of the music." He said as he opened the door fully and walked in, I rushed to the bed where my phone was, I grabbed it and turned off the music.
"You seem to like that specific song a lot." He smiled.
"Yeah." I smiled faintly, if he was here it meant it was finally time for me to go home and I was kind of sad, I dint want to go home, I wanted to be around him.
"You seem disappointed, I am sorry I shouldn't have come in like that." He apologized.
"No... no, it's not you... I just realized I haven't met my first love yet." I giggled trying to act all fine and normal.
"Really? That's surprising."
"Is it? Why so?" I asked curiously.
"I mean you plan weddings, lots of them, and attend them, you sure you haven't ever met someone that managed to impress you? You are funny, and entertaining and as far as I have known you, you seem like a nice person, what else would a guy want? I'm sure you have been asked out right?" he asked.
"Yeah, I just never found myself feeling any sort of attraction for them so I am yet to meet the man of my dreams." I giggled.
"Looks like you are hard to impress then. Anyway, I was leaving for work, I just came to check if you needed anything?"
"No, I was waiting to inform you so I could actually leave, I thought I would just text you but then I realized I dint even have your phone number."
"Give me your phone." He smiled, I handed it to him immediately as he did something on it and then handed it back to me.
"I've saved my number there, you can text me next time." He laughed.
"Next time? Are you planning to take me to another event?" I smirked.
"Maybe, you made the one for last night bearable and I had fun with you. So incase you are free you can accompany me."
"Sure." I blushed. I wanted to do a happy dance, he liked my company he liked spending time with me and he even wanted to take me to attend another event with him, that had to mean something right?
"So... shall we? I will give you company till the parking lot." He said, I nodded as I rushed to get the dress, I had to get it dry cleaned and return it so I took everything that I had to and followed him out.
Barkha and Asha were seated at their usual place and here I had been thinking no one was awake, it looked like everyone here woke up pretty early.
"Arnav! You had a girl stay over, oh my God." Barkha stood up and looked at dramatically, exactly how moms in Indian tv serials look at their kids.
"The last time I checked, you were the one that asked her to accompany me to the event." Arnav said.
"What does a woman need to do in this house to be taken seriously for being overdramatic." Barkha asked as she walked towards us followed by Asha.
Did Asha come here this early? Or did she stay here with them?
"So, did you have fun last night?" Asha smiled at me.
"Yeah, it was good." I replied.
"That's great, anyway we need to talk to Arnav about something, he would be with you in a moment." Barkha smiled at me, I nodded as I started heading outside, were they mad because I stayed back?
I really wanted to know if they were mad so instead of just walking away, I stopped outside the door leaning against the wall so I could over hear whatever they were going to say, I wouldn't usually do such things but I dint want them to think anything wrong about me.
"So?" I heard Asha's voice.
"So what?" Arnav asked.
"She's wearing your favorite Pajamas, as far as I remember even Samar isn't allowed to touch them?" Barkha asked. Really? These were his favorite? If he wouldn't let Samar touch them why did he give them to me to wear?
"You two better stop at whatever you are trying to do okay, they were the only small Pajamas I had that could fit her and before you ask any more questions, she slept in the guest room and I slept in my own room." Arnav replied.
"Still cute that you gave her you favorite Pajamas." Asha giggled.
"Asha please." I heard Arnav's voice, suddenly it sounded kind of sad, I wish I could look at him, was he sad?
"I just want you to be happy Arnav, Sona would have wanted the same." Asha said. Okay, who was Sona? Was it short for Sonali?
"If Sona would have wanted the same, she wouldn't have left. Anyway, this is the last time I am having this conversation, you two better stop okay, I am happy, I am living my life normally, going to work, attending events, what more do I have to do to make you believe that I am fine." He asked, there was a short silence and then I heard footsteps, I knew it was Arnav so I quickly rushed to the parking lot before he could find me here.
I couldn't stop wondering though, who was Sona? How was she related to him? They said she left, so where did she go? Oh God, why did I have all these questions and no answer.
At first, I could think it was Sonali but then they said she left, but Sonali was around right, or did they mean it in the context that she left Arnav and went with Samar.
Holy Shit! Was this some sort of love triangle between Samar, Sonali and Arnav?
"Hey... so I'll get to work, see you around." Arnav said as he stopped in front of me.
"Yeah, got a wedding to plan." I smiled.
"All the best with that." He said as he waved a goodbye at me and headed to his car while I got inside mine and drove home.
