:RUHANIKA'S POV:

It seems like the month has flown by, as tomorrow marks my engagement to Mr. Agasthya.

I really tried hard to stop this wedding as I met and talked to Aunty to convince her that I am not the one for her son. But, looks like running away is the only option. I really dont want to do this but! Rudra's love!

Tomorrow is a really big day. To me now Agasthya is someone like..um..hm! Something more than a stranger but less than a friend. Kuch bich ka.

Huh! Sub choddo!

"Matashree, aao meri chumpi krdo!" I told my mother.

"Aaja putar! Beta I am really happy that you agreed to marry Agasthya!" I started.

"Ahh! Baki sab ki chodo yr aap! Agasthya hai yahan ya me? Me, na!" I told as I really want to spend sometime with her.

"Hm!" Matashree humped.

"Beta, ab Agasthya se na AAP-AAP krke baat kia kr!"

"Kiss khushi me?" I asked.

"Beta, wo bhi toh aap kar ke baat krne laga hai na tujhse!" She said, well he told me that his mother told him to show me some respect that is why!

"Abhi ache se teri chumpi hogayi hai tu ready ho ja Agasthya aata hoga, pick krne tum dono ko gurudwara jana hai!" Matashree told. What!! abey yrr!!!

"Apne phele kyu nhi bataya! Ab me shower lene jarahi" I cried. And went I'm.

1 hour later..

Me and Ani find those girls really funny who portray themselves tomboy by wearing COOL, METALIC hoodies! Asli me tomboy toh wo hoti hain jo apne parents ki beta banke dikhati hain har outfit me. I remember Aunty and Matashree saying 'Ye humare bete hain! Inke hote hue kabhi laga hi nhi ki ek bete ki zarurat hai!' that was the time me and Ani were really proud of ourselves.

Huh! I can also wear dark hoodies in scorching heat at everyplace. But, poor soul me, I know how to dress according to the occasion.

"RUHHII!" I heard my mother yelling and breaking chain of my thoughts.

I quickly had a look of presentable me.

Me

I came downstairs to find Agasthya sitting in traditional.

Him

Well! Traditional me toh everyone looks handsome.

"Itni der lagata hai kya koi! Wo bichara kitni der se wait kr raha hai! Ruhi!" My Matashree shouted out of no where.

"No aunty it's okay!" He interrupts.

"No, beta it's not okay! Kisi Ke time ki value honi chahiye ki nhi!" Matashree said scolding me and I can see him smirking behind! Such a...PLAyer!

:AGASTHYA'S POV:

I just can't hold my laugh! God, why it feels heaven! Agasthya, breath in...breath out!

"Now go he is waiting!" Aunty shouted and making Miss R.T flinch in frustration!

Soon we got in my car.

I can't hold it more so I broke out laughing!

"Agasthya tum-aap! Huhhh! Mera time bhi aayega!" She said in an offended tone squeezing her eyes.

What?

"Am..Aap?" Miss R.T aap ne mujhe aap bola?!" I asked as I can't believe.

"Ji aapko, aap bola. Kyu ki AAP humare hone wale pati parmeshwar jo hain!" She finished in a very sanskari tone and burst out laughing.

It is nice that she is becoming a more bearable person to me now! Also I appreciate her quality of taking a joke as a joke

"Put on some music!" She exclaimed.

"Yeah! You can play your playlist!" I replied casually.

"Yeah, mine is awesome!" She told.

"Huh! Dead!" She said showing her phones battery.

"Here! charge your phone through my port of.." She interrupted me mid sentence, yelling, "WHAT are YOU saYINg!"

"Oh, Acha, I misunderstood!" was heard after I stated, "I am saying you can charge your mobile through this if you want."

"Hey siri! play my playlist!" I ordered.

And the song plays making Miss Ruhanika vibe on it.

Akhiyan naal keh gayi ae
Rooh kadh ke le gayi ae
Tu zehan ch beh gayi ae
O aafat pae gayi ae billo

Hassde tan dil ja khid'da ni
Lekhe jind laun nu firda ni
Tere layi bade hi chirr da ni
Rehnda bechain rakaane

Nain tere, chain mere
Ho luttde rehan rakaane
Jithe dekha, tu hi dissje
Bulekhe paen rakaane

Nain tere, chain mere
Ho luttde rehan rakaane
Jithe dekha, tu hi dissje
Bulekhe paen rakaane

45 minutes later..

We reached the destination. The gurudwara is peaceful and quiet because it is situated on the outskirts of the city. This place has a calming energy.

Before sliding down from the car Miss R.T covers her head with dupatta. Hmm..have to say she always presents herself so well in whatever she wears.

Soon I also tie my forehead with a handkerchief.

After our prayer, she suggested that we meditate here. Ruhanika and peace are, well, a little comical.

20 minutes later..

We got inside my car. After starting the car's engine I started driving.

Looking at her full charged phone there was a small smile on her face.

Although being a billionaire. She does find happiness in such little things?

:RUHANIKA'S POV:

God! I use to come here with my father, uncle and Ani...

I wish Ani would be here..

Nine meters from here is Amritsari kulche. I know he'll not stop the car.
But, what if I tell him?

Huh! I don't think so he will! He seems to be a fitness freak based on his toned, well-built physique I can say.

I should call Ani to distract myself.

She took the call in less than two rings.

"SUPPPP?" She asked.

"Ani you know, Je suis un peu loin du point Amritsari kulcha. Et tu sais... Ce salaud près de chez moi n'arrêtera pas la voiture. Mec! quelle gentille personne c'est!! J'ai envie de lui arracher le nez!"
(I am a little away from Amritsari kulcha point. And you know..This bastard near me won't stop the car. Dude! what kind person he issss!! I want to swat his nose!) I told.

"ContTRol uday conTROll!" She told.

He stoped the car and I quickly hang up the call.

"What happened?!" I asked him.

"Miss Ruhanika Taneja, vous savez que je peux comprendre vingt-neuf langues et, étonnamment, le français en fait partie."
(Miss Ruhanika Taneja, you know I can understand twenty nine languages and surprisingly, french is one of them.) He uttered. My blood turned cold.

What. The. He-?!

Why am I so always blind to the fact that he is an established business player? Huh!!

"Sorry!" I spilled.

"Fine! Wrap up whatever you wanna do here!" Agasthya told and got out of the car.

He covered half of the car and unlocked the door for me.

20 minutes later..

I was in the car and the worst thing happened that he paid for my meal saying 'Miss R.T, please don't make any scene here!'

"Agasthya, can I drive?" I asked as it feels wierd!

He looked at me and uttered "No."

Idiot!

Sometimes afterwards..

I reached my house! And he was about to get down from the car. I know what he is up to.

"Agasthya!" I called him and he faced me.

"Look, I got these!" I told show my hands and he raised his one eyebrow in question.

"So! It is not necessary for you to open the car door! Atleast for me!" I told.

"Fine!" With his typical cold tone, he answered.

I got down from the car.

"Bye then, Go to hell!" I stated this in a very genuine tone.

"Bye! Also don't't forget to get lost! Miss R.T." He responded in the same tone as I and drove away.
