Part 2 The girl should be like...
AR, in the evening
Aman came to Arnav's cabin.
*ASR, I need one-hour permission*
*Where are you going with Lavanya? * he asked.
*You are so smart, ASR... you have all the qualities to LOVE someone...* he grinned.
Arnav looked at him, raising his brows.
*I mean...*
*Get out...*
*Thank you, ASR...*
Aman opened the door and looked at Arnav.
*ASR, today is our second LOVE anniversary. This is the same day Lavanya proposed to me two years ago...*
*Try to celebrate the third anniversary as a couple next year...*
*I'm ready to do that... *
*Cutting him, you can do it only if you kidnap Lavanya * Arnav said teasingly.
*That's what going to happen, ASR... she irritates me a lot you know*
*I know... because she irritates me too... asking me to love someone... * Arnav said, gasping.
Aman came inside and sat in front of him.
*What kind of girl do you want to get married to? *
Arnav smiled.
*Tell me, ASR...*
*She should be beautiful...
*Is it enough? *
*No... I want her to be beautiful because she may get inferior as I'm handsome...*
*Yeah... you are right...*
*If she is not beautiful, she will suspect me if I talk to any woman... our life will become full of problems...*
*This is a valid point... then...? *
*Then... she should have the potential to make me fall for her...*
*Oh...*
*I should be thinking of her all the time... without my knowledge...*
*So, you want to become a typical lover...*
Arnav nodded yes.
*I never knew you have such ideas in your mind ASR...*
*Yeah... I got these ideas after you guys started nagging me to love someone*
*We would have started nagging you if we had known that...* Aman chuckled.
*Ok, go... Lavanya would be waiting for you...*
*As per our program, I have to be in the theater at five-thirty*
*Oh...*
*ASR...*
*Mmm? *
*Don't you have any expectations about your would-be wife's character? *
*Of course... Character is more important than anything. I don't care even if she is not beautiful... but she must have a good character...*
*but, we could not find someone with character because character can be changed anytime...*
*Maybe... but the nature of the character can't be changed...*
*From where will you find someone? *
*That's why I didn't think of finding her...*
*Have not you met any girl yet as per your conditions? *
Arnav stopped for a while and thought something... Or, maybe, someone...
*I will tell you if I meet such a character*
Aman sighed. He stood from the chair.
*I'm leaving ASR*
*Have a nice day... Happy Anniversary...*
*Thank you, Buddy* Aman left the place with a smile.
Arnav leaned on the seat thinking about their conversation.

RM
Arnav got fresh and came out of the washroom, with a towel. Anjali came inside the room smilingly.
*Chotte, don't get upset...*
Arnav looked at her sternly.
*Please, tell me, why don't you want to marry Lavanya? I strongly think there must be a reason for your continued denial*
*Do you really want to know why? * He asked seriously.
Anjali nodded yes.
*Think that I'm already committed...* he said throwing the towel on the recliner.
Anjali pouted.
*Stop your nonsense, Chotte*
*You too stop asking me such questions, Di*
*Lavanya is a good girl...*
*I don't say NO...*
*We can't get such a nice girl, Chotte...*
*Di, you are talking like, she is a mother Theresa...* Arnav laughed.
Anjali hit shoulders.
*Now also she went to meet her friend who is ill, you know*
Arnav looked at her with a weird expression and rolled his eyes. Doesn't he know where did she went and with whom she was?
*Yeah... her friend is soooo ill...* he said sarcastically.
*How did you know that? Did she tell you? * Anjali asked.
*No... if she goes out at this time, her friend should be ill*
Anjali nodded yes with a sad face. They saw Lavanya crossing Arnav's room. She just came from the cinema.
*Lavanya... how is your friend? * Anjali asked.
*Yeah... she is fine Bhabi...*
*What happened to your friend? * Arnav asked.
Lavanya widened her eyes. Before she said anything,
*It seems she has some problem in her HEART...* Anjali said worriedly.
Arnav faced a tough time controlling his laughter whereas Lavanya pleaded with him through gestures.
*If it is so, Lavanya should be with her friend... then only her heart functions well... am I right Lavanya? * Arnav said teasingly.
Lavanya controlled her blush.
*Will you go to meet your friend tomorrow also? * Arnav asked.
*Then what, Chotte...? Being her friend she has to meet her, right? *
*Of course...*
Lavanya thanked him through her eyes because she can meet Aman tomorrow also.
*Don't your friend has anyone? * Arnav asked.
*She has... she has a very good friend...* Lavanya smiled at Arnav.
*That friend is you... am I right? * Anjali asked.
Lavanya nodded yes, looking at Arnav.
*Go and get fresh...* Anjali said.
Lavanya nodded ok and left the room.
*Chotte, see how helping Lavanya is...*
*Di, stop it... I'm very tired...*
*Ok, we will talk later... definitely, we will talk*
She said and left the room. Arnav sat on the recliner and huffed. He didn't know how to manage both the sides... and how long...
The next day
Arnav went to RM early in the morning because he wanted to avoid Anjali's nonsense talks. He was coding his next project. That's when Arnav got a call from Anjali. Arnav sighed, seeing her number. She is going to start talking about his marriage again. Don't know how long he could avoid Anjali. He attended the call with disinterest.
*Di, I have very important work please don't talk about my marriage again*
*Why did you go to the office earlier? *
*What's the big deal...? I usually do that if I have work. I came to the office to attend a video conference*
*Have you eaten anything? *
*Yeah...*
*Actually, Chotte, I ordered a chain for Lavanya as her birthday is in two days. I asked Shyamji to receive it from K&K sons yesterday. It seems Shyamji is busy today. He should have forgotten about it as he has an important meeting in the Bar Council today. Could you please get the chain? *
Arnav sighed in relief.
*Ok, Di. I will receive it...*
*Thank you Chotte...*
*That's ok Di*
Arnav disconnected the call before Anjali starts anything.
Evening
Arnav started to K&K son's jewelry shop to get the chain.
Parking the car outside the jewelry shop, Arnav went inside. The jewelry shop owner rushed to him and welcomed him. He dragged a chair for Arnav and Arnav sat on the chair.
*Di asked me to bring the chain* he asked with an ASR attitude.
*One minute, Raizadaji*
The shop owner himself rushed to bring the chain. He came with a small box and handed it to Arnav.
*Thanks...*
Arnav walked out.
In the meanwhile,
A girl was hiding behind a tree, looking here and there. She looks familiar to us. We have seen her somewhere already. Yes... she is none other than the same girl who was pushing a car the previous day... and our HERO helped her...
To be continued...
The next part is available on INKITT
The same girl again
In the meanwhile,
A girl was hiding behind a tree. She looks familiar to us. We have seen her somewhere already. Yes... she is none other than the same girl who was pushing a car the previous day. She slowly peeped out, biting her nail. She ran her eyes here and there, in a searching manner. She should be frightened of someone.
That's when someone tapped her back. She closed her eyes, biting her lip.
*Why are you hiding from me KHUSHI? * a guy asked.
