!!Story Time!!
Radhika P.O.V
I was reading a book when I got a message on my phone, in which it was written, "Did you fall asleep on the way? Why didn't you message me yet?" I forgot about it. After seeing this message, I remembered that Justin had asked me to message him as soon as I reach home.
When we all landed after a 3 hour flight, everyone went to our homes. Those three went to their homes and all five of us came back to our homes. It had been at least 2 hours for me. After taking a bath and relaxing, I was drinking tea and reading a book. I don't know what happened to my mother today. As soon as I came home, she asked me only one question,When are you getting married? I don't understand why there is so much hurry in my marriage.
I am just 23 years old and I have thought of a lot of things right now, there are a lot of romantic scenes that I had read in some books, which I want to do with Justin, it will take time and I cannot get married until they are completed.
After being successful, every girl has only one goal and that is to spend some romantic time with her husband... her future husband so that he can remember all those moments after marriage.
I picked up my phone and messaged Justin saying sorry I fell asleep I told a small lie because if I told the truth he would have given me a good Lectures
I had just put the phone on the table after sending the message when mom came from the kitchen with a bowl in her hand and immediately she took off my glasses and took the book from my hand and kept it on the table. Before I could say anything, she took out something soft yellowish from the bowl and applied it on my face.
"What are you doing? What is this strange thing you are applying on my face?" I said as I stopped my mother's hand.
"Keep your mouth shut, after roaming in Goa, so many pimples have come out in this heat, apply this on your face, all the pimples will go away, apply it for at least half an hour." She let go of my hand and again applied that strange paste on my face
I didn't say anything and quietly put that past on my face because it was obvious who would mess with mom
I picked up my book again and started reading when suddenly a similar voice came to my ears, "what have you done?"
I followed that voice and looked in that direction, nobody else but Divya was standing at the door, the door was open and she was standing there taking my photo with her phone
"What have you applied on your face, it looks like turmeric function" she said
I immediately stood up and started snatching her phone from her hand because I knew that she would take my photo and send it on the group with a nice caption and after that I would be insulted everywhere with this photo
Then Divya started running to save her phone and said "there is no use of snatching the phone, I have already sent it in the group with the caption that you are already preparing for your marriage with Justin."
Oh my god, she spoke this last line so loudly, mom must have heard it, especially that last word, I haven't told her anything till now
"Bitch, delete it right now," I said while running after her, at that time she lost her balance because she was on the sofa, thank God, she is safe because she did not fall on the glass table, she fell on the ground, if she had fallen on the glass table, she would have reached God without a ticket.
Hearing the sound, mummy came out from the kitchen and papa came out from the room and said "what are you both doing?"
Saying hello uncle and hello aunty, Divya stood up keeping her hands on her waist but I looked at her and said "hello to you, give me your phone right now and delete that photo, bitch."
After listening to me, Mummy asked "which photos and when did you come Divya"
"I have just arrived aunty and I have sent this photo of her yellow face on the group". She had just said this when I snatched the phone from her hand and immediately opened the group and saw that everyone had seen that messages had come from Gulafsha, Ishika Akanksha, Pushpanjali, Khushi, everyone had come and that too with a nice funny comment.
"Oh god", said papa and went back to the room and mummy looked at me and said "go and wash your face" and after saying that she also went to the kitchen
I gave Divya's phone back to her in anger and went and washed my face and came back. She was sitting there drinking water. I told her "hey bitch why have you come here what is your work"
Divya looked at me and said "I have a good news"
I immediately sat on the sofa and looked at her and said, "don't tell me that you are pregnant,"
"No I am not pregnant" she said
"Oh that's good, otherwise I thought that you yourself are a small Bitch and you are also going to have small puppy's" I said
"Aren't you ashamed of calling my kids puppies?" She said
"You are not pregnant, am I right?" I said
"Yes.." She said
"so then what is the good news?" I ask
"do you remember anything about next week do you remember anything"
"No, I don't remember anything, please tell me quickly what it is"
"Ishika's birthday is next week she is going to turn 25" she said
"So what is the good news in this, it happens every year" I spoke
"Because that's good news because she's turning 25 this year" she said
"For your information, everyone turns 25. I am not trying to be rude but Ishika doesn't like to celebrate her birthday. I don't know what the perfect reason is. Maybe it's her family's. She always tries to disappear on her birthday and we have been seeing this for the last 5 or 6 maybe 7 years since we met." I said in one breath
"I know this thing that she doesn't like to celebrate birthdays because of her family, it is all her family's fault in this, anyway no one wants to be compared with elder siblings just because she is weak in studies or she can't do those things which her elder siblings can do" she said
"So what is the good news in this that you came here with so much excitement to tell me?"
"This is the thing, we can't do anything about it, whether she is 30, 25 or 50, it will be her birthday which she never wants to celebrate"
"Yes, but this time it might be different because this time Sahil is here and I have seen him very happy with Sain, so maybe if we celebrate his birthday with Sahil then he might be happy because leaving him alone would be completely wrong as we have been doing." She said
"We never left her alone, we are always on call on her birthday" I said
"yes that is exactly what we are on call" she said and now I am wordless after a little silent she said again "And anyway she is planning to move in with Sahil and Sahil and his friends are going back to Italy after some time so we should do something, maybe she too can go with him and then we will be only on call"
"Wait....whatttttt.....Justin did not told me this" I said with little shocked and in low voice
"What did he not tell you" she asked in confusion
"that he's going to Italy," I said
"Umm...I don't know why he did not tell you this bit that truth because Shail told me this" She said
"ok and when do you talk about it" I aks
"You were talking to Khushi, when did you talk to Sahil?" I said
"That's when you were holding Justin's hand and talking to him romantically" she siad with dramatic voice
"Speak softly, Mummy will hear it, I did not tell her anything about this right now", I said in a low voice and scolded her angrily.
"Okok" she said
"Now you get out of here because I have to go out for some work and as far as her birthday is concerned, you create a group on WhatsApp and add whoever you want, expect Ishika and we will talk on the group, now get lost"
After saying this, I stood up from my place, held Divya's hand and started taking her outside. She wanted to say something, she was trying to speak but I was not listening. I took her out of the gate, closed the gate and said bye and went back to my room.
I opened my wardrobe and started looking for clothes in it because Justin had told me in the plane that he will take me to the book market in the evening because I had told him that I want to buy some books so he said he will take me there we can also say that we are going on a book date
There was a message on my phone, When I saw it, it was written, "Are you ready for a book date? I will meet you at 6:00."
I sent an OK message and started getting ready again, quickly fixed my hair and clothes and as soon as I came out of the room I picked up my phone and mom asked "where are you going madam."
She was sitting on the sofa and cutting vegetables when I said while thinking that "I am going to the book market with .....Divya...I'll be late in coming"
"Ok, take the house keys because your father and I are also going out. It is the wedding of one of your father's friend's daughters, so we are going. It may take us till morning to return, so it will be better if you take the keys with you." She said
"Okkkkkkk" After saying this I picked up the keys from the draw and came out of the house. After walking a little distance, I saw a black coloured car. A man in a white shirt was standing beside it and he was using the phone and was looking very handsome. It was none other than Justin.
I wore a black top and blue jeans. I had made a ponytail and was carrying a purse which I had tied on my shoulder which contained my phone, credit cards and some essential things.
How many times have I not even counted the number of times I have made eye contact in 10 days and this contact takes me to a different world and every time I look into his eyes, I just feel like staring at him again and again. Every second is pulling me towards him and making me more and more crazy for him.
We were standing on a white road, although we were on a corner, then we heard the sound of a biker and he immediately came from behind me. As soon as he came from behind me, he had not even reached near me, Justin immediately broke our eye contact and first of all he put his hand on my waist and pulled me towards him and that biker came out from the same place where I was standing. We both were just standing facing each other and at this time I was completely glued to him because one of his hands was on my waist and with the other hand he had made a fist because he was getting angry probably.
He was angry at the biker because he really drove off at a very high speed. If he hadn't been careful, I would have met with an accident.
But I am not angry at this time, not at all, rather I am very happy because I have never come this close to Justin before, maybe but, this thing was different, his hand was getting tighter on my waist and he was looking at the biker, I was looking at him and he must have felt my hot breath on her neck
There is only one thing going on in my mind right now, I want to come closer to him, I want to know everything about him, every second it is pulling me towards him, it is driving me crazy, driving me more and more crazy.
Justin kept looking at that biker till he disappeared from there completely and his grip on my waist became tighter and tighter, his hand was reaching my stomach, I was feeling his hot hand even though I was wearing my top, this thing was showing that he was afraid that something might happen to me.....
