“Hello Again ”I said. Sanskar was
looking at me for a while and then said “Were you wearing a yellow kurti and
blue jeans this morning.” I laughed and replied “Yes, I changed.”
Opening the gate of his car he said
“So you changed for the party.” And I teased him saying “No I changed because I
was meeting you.” And he was smart with his back fire “Well then I love the
color of your dress. It looks really great on you.” And as he winked, I had
butterflies in my stomach. While he continued “So I can drop you home right ?”
I nodded “You had your dinner?” I
asked.
Sanskar didn’t reply to my question right away,
he looked at me and then his rear view mirror and moved his car in reverse and
then out of the parking. He was just smiling. The window of the car was
partially open the breeze of air was scattering my hair all over my face and I
was trying to handle my hair, then I randomly started searching for a hair clip
in my bag. Sanskar asked “all Okay”, I said “My hair, they are ,,” he dint
allow me to complete my sentence and said “disturbing my view” and he laughed
and he continued talking “I ate some snacks at 7, I am not hungry but I am sure
we can have some Ice cream as you might have skipped your dessert”. I was
surprised “Who told you?” And he
answered “well I came early I am sure it was the time you started your dinner
and you just ….” This time, I stopped him saying “I actually ate lot of
starters earlier. so I wasn’t hungry at all.”
The car stopped at a signal, there
was noise all around from the vehicles outside yet silence in the car. Suddenly
Sanskar said “ Shreya!” I looked at him and then at the front vehicles just to
avoid eye contact, However he was looking at me and continued “Thanks for
joining me early, I was eager to meet you”
And he turned and looked at the
signal we both smiled.
The signal went green the car was
started, and it was a calm drive till we reached one ice-cream parlor, we got
down and as we were walking towards the entrance Sanskar pointed me a table and
I moved towards the same table, the place wasn’t crowded at all there were
barely 4 or 5 people apart from us we sat there looking at the menu while he
asked “So which one?” I said “Anything apart
from chocolate flavour” soon he stood and left to the counter to order.
I checked my phone It was 9:00. I
was feeling I should call dad, He may get
worried, or mom and tell her, that the party is delayed and I will be home by
10 but that would be a lie. Sanskar appeared and said “don’t worry we will
reach home by 9:30; your home is 10 mins away from here.” while saying this he
grabbed the chair opposite to me and pulled it to my right and sat, he sat so
close that his knee tapped my knee and he said “Sorry” and he continued “You
were saying something… something you wanted to say to me”.
I
pulled all my consciousness and told to myself
this is the time and said “It ..I don’t think it would make any sense now.”
He laughed and said “still I want to hear it”
