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”
I took a
deep breath and said “When you came to meet me and I told you, that I have a
boyfriend, I was actually going through a breakup and I was confused. I wish, I
have had told you this on the same day but…” he stopped me asking “You are
talking about sumit ?”
I
nodded my head with a surprised expression thinking how he knew the name while he continued “I knew that he broke up
with you. But I wasn’t expecting we are going to talk about him….. haaaaaa” he
rubbed his forehead a little and said“ I
mean I thought we would be discussing something related to us …..you or me ….”
And I was blinking my eyes he asked “What?”
I asked him “How do you know sumit ?”
He
answered “ I don’t know him, I was just going through her wife’s profile on FB,
she is my cousin’s friend then I found that you are a friend in his list. So I
enquired about you with her , Sunaina Sumit’s wife knows you.”
“So you
knew that I was not in relationship ” I demanded.
“Yes, but
unfortunately this happened after we met at your place, can we talk something
else I am not interested to discuss your X boyfriend” he made a face like he
was bored and said
“you are
sure that’s all you wanted to say ”
The
Faludaas appeared . I was disappointed, I felt I made a very silly mistake.
I was looking at my slippers for no reason. He
Opened the lids of Faludaa glass and kept spoons in both of them and moved one
to my side and asked “I hope you like …Faluda” I looked at him for a while and
nodded.
He started
having his glass and asked “Are you angry ?”
I took a
spoon of the falooda and tasted it I
thought may be because I wasn’t eating he
felt so, I shouldn’t have discussed anything. I could have asked something else
may be to meet him on Sunday and plan to go shopping with him. I need to buy
something for dad ; his birthday is approaching ….Shirt .. wrist watch …
perfume would be good hmmm. As I was immersed in my thoughts Sanskar said
“Should I help you in finishing it, I feel you dint like em’ should I order any
other ice cream for you?” he waved his hand infront of me saying “HELLOoooo”
I said
“Can you take out time and come for shopping with me on sunday?”
He smiled
and asked “Why you want me to join you in shopping ?”
I answered
“So that we can meet again” .I raised my shoulders. He rubbed his chin with his
fingers and lifted his eyebrows looking at me and asked “why you want to meet
again, we are done with the discussion right !”
I was not
expecting that answer I started looking other side a table on my left it was
very dirty.
He took my
faluda and completed it I wasn’t expecting that too. He asked “Shall we leave.”
I had no
answer I stood and we walked towards his car, he was talking continuously “You are so calm , and angry ..like angry
bird …peek peek peekpeek … ” It was funny I laughed and said “I am not angry ”
and he rushed and opened the door of car and asked “shall we go for shopping
tomorrow instead of Sunday ? Mom and dad are coming back on Sunday & I want
to stay home”
Suddenly I
remembered the morning conversation and said “You need to take your girl friend
out for lunch tomorrow” and I sat closing the door
He came in
from the other side and said “I am sure with all your smartness you know I
don’t have any girl friend, so now tell me tomorrow?? ”
I said “I
am not smart” and he poked “Oh yes you are ” and we continued like kids “no I
am not” and “yes you are” repeating our lines for a while. Then laughed.
We almost
reached my place I could see my home I had no clue what happened he suddenly
stopped the car and reversed it and moved back to the same route for about 80
meters I asked “What are you doing ?”
looking at sanskar &then my watch it was 9 :50 pm already
He stopped
the car and said “First you have to tell me why you want to meet me.”
