Gunjan's POV

Dear Dairy,

I don't know where to start. I know I don't usually write, but I want to start, and I don't think any better than this. Today I feel like my life is going to change. To change from being single to being finally in a relationship. Single?!
I don't think that I'm single or in a relationship.
What is that new word? Situationship.
Okay, let's start with an introduction.
Hi! My name is Gunjan Kohli. Yes, you guessed it right. I'm Virat Kohli's sister. My life has been pretty normal because Bhai never tried to bring all the attention home. Bhai is like a typical brother. He is protective, funny, and teases me. And also loves me. I'm close to Bhabhi too. She helps me with all the silly problems. And by profession, I'm a Team Manager for U19. Don't be shocked it was totally on merit. I didn't take my brother's help. I always had a keen interest in management and Bhai, and I had a love for a special sport, Cricket. I'm a Team Manager for U19 Indian Squad. I like to Manage and be in contact with upcoming talent.

So, because I followed my dream, I met an amazing group of friends like could ask for. As used to work under the team manager for the U19 world cup 2017/2018, I met the Prince I.e., Shubman Gill, the notorious Ishan Kishan, The handsome Devdutt Paddikal, and the heartthrob Abhishek Sharma. Yes, I met them when they were not even able to grow a mustache. Now look at my boys, they have grown so much. Physically, potentially, emotionally, and most importantly Mentally. I have different relationships with all the boys, Dev is my Best Friend, Ishan is my prank partner, Shubman is like my brother, and Abhishek um I don't know how to describe our relationship. We are defiantly more than friends, but we are not dating. I have talked about this to Bhabhi, and she said that we both are idiots. I trust Bhabhi that she would never tell Bhai. and I know she didn't, because Bhai would have reacted differently. I know bhai doesn't see Abhishek as I do, he sees him as the guy who is chilled and doesn't take life too seriously, but I have talked to Abhishek, and I know what's going on in his mind. he does show emotion like others.

Now, the main reason I am writing to you about my dairy is because Abhishek has called me, called me only to meet him for dinner. Like is he going to propose? He even told me to dress up. I still remember the day I met him. I was working under a team manager as an intern. I walk up to the field, and I saw these four boys talking and running behind each other. Doing whatever typical boyish things boys do. As I was introduced to everyone, I met Abhishek. He was this cool guy who looked like a bad boy. My teenage self had a hard-on crush that bloody moment. He was wearing these black shades and was in an Indian jersey. I thought he was this rude boy but instead, he was this sweet Punjabi boy. Who had a contagious laugh?

I stopped laughing and went to drink water, as I came back, I saw Abhishek in my room, sitting on the bed. He has things to come to my room whenever he wants. He throws a stone at my window to alert me that he is coming. 
"What are you doing here?"
I asked as I went towards him.

"Nothing. Just came here to talk to the most beautiful girl."
He replied casually.

"What if Bhai saw you?"
I asked.

"I know you are alone. There's only one car down there so."
He spoke. And I realized that I was alone. I took a breath of relief. But then I saw the book I was writing behind Abhay.

"What brings you here?"
I asked him again to distract him from the book. I kept that book under my pillow.

"Came here to remind you. Tonight. Tranquil at 8 PM"
He said and stood up.
"Wear something Nice"
He continued.

"No. I'll just come in my night suit"
I tried to be sarcastic.

"No worries. I'm pretty sure you will look sexy in those"
He answered and winked at him.
I went and hit him on the head.
And heard him say ouch.

"I'll just wear what im wearing now"
I said as I was constantly looming outside. To see if my brother arrives.

"No. You can't wear jeans and a top. Please Gunjan"
He said.
"Wear a dress. A sexy one"
He went on.

"No"
I spoke without thinking.

"You can't say no to this face"
He talked, showing me his puppy look.

True I can't say No to that face, but I love teasing him.

"I can. And I just did."
I said and folded my hands.

"You know na, I have this charismatic charm. Women can't say No to"
He said.

I snorted at him.
So he took my right hand and hold it in his hand. And went on his knees and said,
"Gunjan, What do I say? You are like a bright day in winter. That makes me love winter even more. You are like a Warm night in summer, and that makes me want to live forever. You are my brightest star, and I can't stop looking at you. Moon? Na. I wanna take your picture. And keep looming at you. Now that I have held your hand I never wanna let it go. I never wanna let YOU go"

I just froze there. Did he just propose to me? I was shocked and a slight drop of tear left my eyes. I was about to say when he talked,
"See you can't say no"

That's when I understood he was just proving his point. I felt a shooting pain in my heart. I could hear my broken heart. So I just stopped the teardrop and turned around.

"Hey! I win. I made you cry with my speech"
He said.

"No. You didn't. It was just cheesy crap from movies and songs. I was crying for your future GF"
I said.

I didn't realize that as I was talking, Abhay was taking slow steps towards me.
"Really?"
He asked

"Really!"
I replied.

By now my back was against the wall. And he was close to me. I was directly looking at his eyes. We both were slightly the same height. He was just a bite taller than me.

That's when I heard the don't keys jingling. That means Bhai is Home.
"Bhai is -"
I was about to say but Abhishek stopped him as he put his finger on my lips.
He slowly came closer to me. He was now near my ears. His breathing was making me ticklish. I close my eyes. My heart was beating fast for so many reasons.
1. We are so bloody close.
2. What is Abhay doing?
3. What is bhai saw us?
4. Bhai reaction?

"Wear something nice. I'll be waiting"
He finally said and kissed my right cheek.
I was so scared that I didn't move my eyes for 10 seconds. And when I did, he was gone. He was like a vampire.

"I'm home"
Bhai said as he opened the door.

"Oh"
I was shocked as I kept my hand to my heart.
"Welcome home"

"Why are your cheeks so pink?"
Bhai asked.

"Um that's um makeup"
I replied

"You don't need those things. You're a natural beauty"
Bhai said.

I nodded and called Dev as Bhai left the room.

"Dev. Consecrate"
I said as Dev kept talking to this store girl.

"What?"
He asked.

"Tell me what should I wear?"

"Anything will be fine"

"No. Tell me"

"That jerk is already head over heels for you. So even if you were something simple he is fine"
Dev said.

"No, he's not. Is he?"

"Gunjan, love, you are kidding yourself. Yes, Abhay is a bit dumb when it comes to emotion and everything but he's all your"
Dev said while showing me a really pretty white dress.

I nodded and we brought that. He dropped me off at home. I got ready for the evening. I put my dress on and curled my hair a little. You know wavey hairs. I completed my attire with white heels. I keep getting this weird feeling in my stomach. I ignore it.

I walked out of my room and saw Bhai playing with Vamika. She is literally the mini version of Bhai. I tried to slowly walk out without Bhai noticing me.
"I can see you. So speak up"
I hear Bhai say.

"Going out. With Abhishek"
I said but whisper the last part.

"With whom?"
Bhai asked.

"Abhishek"
I replied.

"I don't like that boy"
Bhai spoke.

"Bhai you didn't like Shub or Ishan or Dev. But now they are your favorite"

"I don't like him"

"Bye Bhai. Bye Vamika"
I said as I kissed Bhai and Vamika's Cheeks.

I entered the place Abhay had called me. It was not crowded crowded but not empty empty. I saw Abhishek sitting in the corner, as he was busy on his phone. He was wearing a black shirt. He looked so damn handsome. Walked towards him passing through the sweaty bodies.

"Gunjan"
He wished me as he saw me and we hugged each other.

We both sat down in front is each other.
"Don't worry I already ordered your drink. Diet coke"
He said.

The waiter came with our drinks.
"So it's just me?"
I asked after taking a sip.

"Yes. There is something I want to tell you"
He replied.

"What is it?"

"No. Let's dance first. It's our song. Come on"
He said as the DJ played Excuses.

He took my hand and dragged me to the floor. It's been more than a year since the song came out but he still loves it. I still love it. We both dance for a while. Then we went back to our seats.

"Okay. So the reason I called you"
He talked.
I don't why my whole body had goosebumps.

"Um I got selected for the T20 series with Bangladesh"
He spoke.

"What? Really?! I'm so proud of you Abhay"
I congratulate him.

"Yes. Can you believe it? First I won the orange cap in IPL and now I'll have my T20 debut"
He said

"Yes. That's what you wanted to say?"
I tried to ask.

"Yeah. I wanted to tell you first. You were there all this time. From U19 to here and more. I wanted you to know first"
He told.

"I'm so happy for you Abhay"
I said and try to be strong.

"I can't believe you dressed up. I was kidding"
He spoke.

"um, I just im I love fashion. You know"

"Yes"

"Abhay, um I have to leave. Bhai had a deadline. So congratulations and bye"
I said and left the table. I could hear Abhishek calling me but I ignored him.

I was so dumb. I am so dumb to think that he was going to propose. AHH, I wanna cry but I can't. I tried to bring myself together and called Dev. I'm in no position to drive.

"You said he is head over heels Dev"

"He is"

"No. He's not"

"He is dumb. He doesn't know how to add 1+1"

"Shut up. I looked like an idiot"

"No. Gunjan calm down. I'll talk to him."

"Don't. Nothing is going on between us. It was just a one-sided stupid crush."
I said and closed the door of the car.

"Gunjan-"

It's been 2 weeks since the whole incident. I haven't talked to Abhishek as he is bust with the whole practice for his debut that's what I assume. Dev kept calling me but im ignoring him. I was with the U19 team. I was not in the mood. I have been this irritated the whole week.

"Hey! Gunjan. What happened? You don't look the usual"
Raj said. He was one of the players.

"Nothing Raj, just not well. You can say"
I replied.

"Okay, you know let's go out tonight. You and me"
He asked.

"What?"

"Come on gorgeous. I'm not that bad as a company"
He told you.

You thought for a second and replied yes. The only reason was you haven't left the house.

"You look beautiful, as always"
Raj compliment you as you both sat down.

"Thank you, Raj"

"So what do you want?"

"Diet Coke"

"What?! What are you 10?"

"Excuse me?!"

"Nothing"
He replied and gave your order.

"That Abhishek got selected for T20"

"Hm. What do you mean That Abhishek?"

"I mean. He doesn't deserve that"

"What makes you say that?"

"Just one good year in IPL and now he has a debut. That was just luck "

You stood up and said,
"That was not luck. That was hard work for years. The pain, the practice, the hard work, the games he had to play to get there only he knows. So just shut up Raj and concentrate on your game."

Yes, you were not talking with Abhay, but you can't let anyone disrespect him. You shouted at Raj and were about to leave when he holds your hand and asked,
"Then where is he, Gunjan?"

"Leave my hand."

"Okay. Where is he?"

"I don't care."
You said and started walking away. But you could hear Raj say,
"He is partying. He is a player. He was playing with your heart. He has done that to other girls. He knew you liked him so he just played along"

Don't know what happened, but Raj's words are running in my head. I can't stop thinking about it.
Was I just Timepass?
It was just flirting after all?
Ugghhh im dumb and blind.

I tried to call Abhay but he said he was busy and will call later. It's been 2 weeks and he hasn't called me yet. But now he is calling me back, im not picking up. I can't talk to him. I have taken leave. I haven't again not left my home. Luckily bhai bhabhi was out of state. But they are returning tomorrow. I have to face them. They will know what's wrong within in second.

Abhishek POV

"I have been trying to call her for a week Dev"
I said.

"I know. Something is wrong"
Dev replied.

"What? Talk to her. You're her best friend "
I said.

"Yes, but she won't talk to me"

"She's angry because she doesn't pick up her phone whenever she's angry. That means something happened 2 weeks ago"
I told him.

"She went to meet Raj"

"What? Why him"

"Jealous?"
Dev asked with a smirk.

"No. He's a jerk. He liked her. He thinks he is worthy of her"

"Wait a minute. Did he like her? I know what happened. Come on. Let's go to the academy"
Dev said.

"Dev explain"

"No. We don't have time"

We were at the academy and took Raj aside. We were in the corner. He was being a jerk that he is.
"What happened that day with you went out with Gunjan?"
Dev asked.

"Oh, when we went on DATE?"
Raj said emphasizing a date.

I wanted to punch him. But I controlled.

"Speak,"
I spoke.

"Nothing. Just had some fun. You know what I mean."
Raj said with a wink.

I was about to shout but the dev did that for me,
"Don't cross your limit, Raj. Just tell us the whole truth or I will punch your face"
He said as he holds his collar.

"No. no. not my face. I'll tell you, guys. "
And he spoke the whole truth. And after he was done speaking, I punch his face.

"Why did Gunjan believe him?"
I asked Dev as he was driving.

"Because she was angry with you"
He answers.

"What?"

"Oh God Abhay are you that stupid? The night you called her for news she thought you were going to propose. She likes you and you like her too."
Dev explained.

"Seriously?"

Dev nodded and replied,
"From day one you were all over her. The way you look at her is so obvious. You both flirt with each other"

"I need to talk to her. Now"
I said

"Good. Because we are here. Go get her."
Dev said as he stopped the car in front of Gunjan's home.

"Don't you need stones for telling her that you are coming?"
Dev asked.

"No, I'll just enter from the door."
I replied and smiled at Dev.

Third Person POV

Abhishek was ready to face Gunjan. But one thinks he was not aware was the protective brother came home early to surprise his little sister. And in fact, he got surprised to see his little sister crying.

Right now Gunjan was in her room, she wanted some peace. So her Bhai bhabhi gave her some.

Abhay rings the doorbell and to his surprise, Virat opened the door.

"No. You aren't allowed here"
Virat Said and closed the door. But Abhishek stopped the door midway and said,
"I need to talk to Gunjan. Please"

"Not happening. You broke my sister's heart. I knew you were bad news"
Virat said and by this time Nush had come to the scene. And Gunjan was listening on the other side of her door.

"Please bhai. I need to rectify my mistake. And solve the misunderstanding.  I just need to talk to her. Please Bhai. Please Bhabhi"
Abhishek said as he joined his hands.

"Baby, let him explain himself."
Anushka said.

"what? No!"
Virat exclaimed.

"Virat"
Anushka spoke.

Virat looked at her and then at Abhishek and said,
"You got 10 mins"

Abhishek nodded and went towards the door.
He tried to open it but failed as Gunjan had locked the doors.

"Gunjan Please open the door. I need to explain myself"
Abhay said

No reply.

"Please"

Still no reply.

"Okay. Just listen to me. I'll talk from this side"
Abhishek said.

He was standing on the other side of the door. Gunjan was also leaning against the door. Virat and Anushka were standing there seeing Abhishek explain himself.

"Gunjan, I still remember the day I saw you; I saw this gorgeous, ambitious girl on the field where I grew up. And that very moment I know you weren't some ordinary girl in this extraordinary world. You were THE extraordinary girl in this ordinary world. Being and talking to you was the easiest thing I have ever had to do. And that's Love. Simple, easy. No, pretending, no showing off, no drama. It's just you and me"                                                                  Abhishek confessed while keeping his left hand and his head on the door. 

"I know what Raj said to you. It wasn't true. Not even a little bit. Yes, I have looked at different girls but stopped when my eyes met yours. The reason I wasn't taking your call was because I was Practicing. Yes, I wanted to make you proud. I wanted you to be able to say that That's my um um Boyfriend. I know you will always see me as a good player, but I wanted to be better for you, you are Virat Kohli's sister, I have to remember that. I wanted to be worthy enough for YOU. For your brother. And in that process, I lost you. I'm so sorry Gunjan"                  Abhishek continued.

On the other hand, Gunjan kept her hand on the door while listening to Abhishek's apology. She felt stupid for the 100th time.

"Your time is up. She didn't open the door"
Virat said.

"I'm sorry Abhishek. I guess Gunjan needs more time"
Anushka continued.

Abhishek nodded and said,
"Gunjan I just wanted you to know, it's you. It's always been you. And always will be you."

Abhishek was walking away when he heard the door noob open. He turned around and saw his Gunjan. Standing there with tears in her eyes.

Both the idiots came and hugged each other. It was a proper Bollywood moment. Anushka was so happy whereas Virat wanted to be happy but kept his cool.

"You are not alone"
Virat said.

"Don't"
Anushka stopped him.

Gunjan and Abhishek broke the hug. Abhishek asked Gunjan for a Long drive and she said yes. And went towards her room to get ready.

"I know you don't mean bad for her, but take care of my little girl"
Virat said to Abhishek.

"Don't worry Bhai. She means a lot to me too. She's my world. My everything"
Abhishek replied.

And that's how Abhigan's story started!
