ADVAITA VERMA
"Advi, come, have your dinner!" Ma shouted from downstairs for the 5th time in the last 10 mins.
"Coming! Just 5 mins more!" I shouted back, fastly writing the integration formulas.
And then...
The door of my room opened with a thud!
"You still have 1 month for the entrance exams. Why are you stressing yourself this much?" she asked coming near me and patting my head.
"Ma, I really want to clear the entrance exams and get into that university" I replied, pouting.
"God! What did you do with my daughter huh? For the last 2 years, she is studying like Newton. Did an apple fall on her head too?" she said, sighing dramatically looking at the ceiling.
"Ma!" I whined and she laughed pulling my cheeks.
"OK, ok, finish your work fast and come downstairs for dinner" she said and closed the door behind her.
I sighed and stretched my hands.
Now, who will tell her that I am doing all this for her future son-in-law!
That person didn't even talk to me properly in the last 2 years other than something like...
"Angel, don't talk to that boy"
"Angel, don't eat too much sweet"
"Angel, don't watch too much TV"
"Angel, don't bite your nails"
"Angel, don't breathe!"
And blah blah blah...
Stupid! Jerk! Idiot! Arrogant! Rude! Argh!
Haww!!!
What am I saying! Shit!
No no he is my future husband.
He is the most caring person ever.
He is not at all rude.
He always talks sweetly with me.
Aur dhamki toh kabhi dete hi nahi hai...
Yeah, that's better!
...
1 month later...
"Dad, you check" I said jerking my face away from the computer screen because I don't have the heart to see it.
My palms are sweaty because of the nervousness.
"I am sorry, beta" dad said taking off his glasses and wiping his face.
I shut my eyes tightly and tears started pooling in my eyes.
2 years of hard work just went into...
Into...
Doraemon's pocket!
"I am sorry beta, you have to go away from us" he said and engulfed me in a tight hug. Mom too joined jumping like a high school girl.
My eyes were wide as saucers and it took me a minute to absorb what happened.
"AHHH...." I screamed at the top of my lungs and started jumping up and down.
Ma and dad closed their ears with their hands.
Did I get into his university?
Yayyy!!!
The wait is finally over my future husband.
I am coming, Maan...
ABHIMANYU DUTTA
I woke up and stretched my limbs.
After making the bed, I went and stood near the window of my hostel room.
The sighed when the cool and calming morning breeze touched my face.
After standing there for a few minutes my eyes went toward the calendar.
A smile crept on my face seeing today's date, for which I am waiting for months, or maybe years.
I quickly took a shower and changed into my sweat pants and t-shirt because today is no college.
I lay on my bed and called my brother.
"What's up! Big bro!" that monkey said as soon as he picked up the call.
"Really Veer? That's how you talk to your elder brother?" I said in an unpleasant tone.
"Bade bhaiya ji, aap kaise hai?" he again said sweetly. Mocking me.
Idiot!
I just rolled my eyes and dismissed that topic.
"So, how're your studies going on?" I asked
"Currently I am enjoying, Bhai" he said and I heard some shuffling.
He is again playing video games!
"Veer..." I started
"Bhai please my 10th board exams just got over please don't start with your "DON'T ENJOY JUST DIE STUDYING" speech" he pleaded.
Really? I am not that strict.
OR am I?
"Anything else?" he asked after a minute of silence.
"Umm...I heard today results of entrance exams also came" I said not trying to be obvious.
"So?" he asked.
"Umm...our neighbor's daughter also gave the exam, right?" I asked casually.
"Who?" he asked munching something.
"Umm...what's her name? I don't remember" I acted
"Geeta?" he said
"No" I replied
"Meeta?" he said
"No" I replied
"Sita?" he said
"No" I replied
He doesn't remember her name?
idiot!
"Reeta?" he asked
"Arre! Advaita!" this time I shouted in irritation.
"Oh...Advaita di" he said and I felt as if he was smirking.
That monkey!
He did this on purpose!
"Yeah yeah whatever" I still tried to cover up.
"Ask directly na Bhai, why beating around the bush?" he said teasingly.
"Shut up! And bye!" I said ending the call
Seems like I have to call mom.
"By the way, she got into your university!" he shouted and started laughing as soon as I was going to cut the call.
Idiot monkey!
I placed my hands under my head while lying on the bed.
I sighed with a smile looking at the ceiling.
I am waiting, angel...
ADVAITA VERMAFINALLY!TODAY IS THE DAY!I CAN'T WAIT TO MEET HIM!AUTHOR'S POVShe entered inside the university, holding her bag tightly due to her extreme nervousness.Her eyes searched for a certain "someone".The "someone" for whom she had studied her ass off to get into this university.The "someone" she is in love with, since forever.Suddenly, the environment became tense and the winds stilled.She felt warm breaths behind her ear."Searching for someone, angel?" he whispered in her ear from behind."Maan..." she barely whispered turning back.She was literally trembling in his presence.His eyes were only amused seeing her condition.Does he affect her that much?"So, you finally got into this university huh?" he asked taking her hand and placing a paper on it."Yes" she replied blushing looking down only because of his touch.He smiled adoringly at her but masked his emotions as soon as she looked up."It's great then, you should study hard" he said rudely moving away.Her f
ADVAITA VERMAI felt like I am drowning.No, not in his eyes.But in actual water.I opened my eyes with a jerk and found myself completely drenched in water.And I also found the devil in his purest form standing beside the bed with glass and a smirk on her face."What the hell! Disha!" I shouted wiping down the water from my face."I am waking you up for the last half an hour but you are sleeping like a hippo so this was the only option left" She shrugged and went towards her study table munching on her chocolate."Bitch" I murmured and ran inside the bathroom.The flying chappal collided with the bathroom door."Nikal tu bahar, batati hun tujhe" she shouted and I just laughed....Currently, we are sitting in the canteen after attending our classes. The canteen is crowded as usual.Dishu is eating her French fries while I am eating my pastry. And yeah, I am blushing too because of the person sitting four tables away from me.He is glancing at me once in a while reading his book.I

And my Maan.He is ignoring me for the past 1 week.Not that he used to talk much with me but now he is not even glancing at me.Is he PMSing?Currently, Disha and Karan are standing with me in our corridor talking randomly.In this one week, they both have grown pretty much closer. *Ahem Ahem*"Advi see this" Karan said laughing showing me something on his phone.Disha was also laughing like a madwoman.Oh!And did I tell you?That our great Abhimanyu Dutta is standing 2 pillars away reading a book upside down and holding a water bottle in his other hand.What is he trying to do?I saw what Karan was showing me.And it was really funny! Note the sarcasm.I saw Maan casually walking toward us.And...He spilled the water on Karan!What the..."Oh, I am really sorry, Karan. It slipped" he said extra sweetly.Sweet and Abhimanyu

Please come upon the stage" The host announced and everyone cheered.A guy rushed to the stage with his guitar.Everyone clapped excitedly.Sanwali saloniAdayein manmohniTeri jaisi beautyKisi ki bhi nahi honiThande ki bottleMain tera openerTujhe gat gat main peelunCoca Cola tu...Shola shola tu...Did he sing?

AUTHOR'S POVAbhimanyu entered the canteen for having lunch with Virat, Karan, and Piya.Something has changed since the fresher's party. It's been 1 month since that day.Those eye contacts.Those ways to be near each other, always.Those blushings.Those teasings.Everything seems beautiful when you are in love and that's an amazing feeling."To the world, you are just a person but for that one person you are the whole world"Do you know the best feeling in this world?When you look at that special person,And they are already smiling at you.They never realize that when that special person becomes their favourite feeling.Advaita and Disha were already there, having their lunch.Their eyes met and as usual, the sparks happened."Let's eat with them" Piya said smiling and moved towards Advaita and Disha.Karan instantly took the seat beside Disha. Piya and Virat took the adjacent seats on the other side.And Did I tell you?Karan and Disha are already a couple!Having no other optio
ADVAITA VERMACurrently, I am going towards my German class which is combined with 3rd and 4th-year students. It is an audit course so all the students who have opted for that course will be present there.Maan, Virat, and Piya have also opted for German while Karan and Disha opted for French because there are more students so that they can easily sit on the last seat and *Ahem Ahem*.Virat and Piya didn't come today.And I am calling them by their name because they wanted me to. They said they will feel old đ.Well, currently I am running towards my class because only 5 mins are left. I overslept in dreams of my Maan and that witch didn't even wake me up.Log sahi kehte hai pyaar mein log dosto ko hi neend se uthana bhul jaate hai!I was running in the corridor when I saw Maan standing leaning against the wall outside the classroom.Shit!Why do I have to always embarrass myself in front of him.I'll just quietly bury myself to death.I immediately stopped in front of him, panting a
"Advi you always wanted to open a bakery, right? Then why did you enroll in engineering?" Finally, Disha asked the question which was disturbing her for a very long time."Aaa...because I wanted to" Advaita answered not looking up from her book."Ae Advi, don't lie! I know from the start that something is fishy but I thought you will tell me eventually, but we are already at the end of our first year. So, TELL ME!" Disha demanded as her voice peaked a level high.People around them in the library irked and Advaita mouthed a small sorry with an awkward smile, glaring at Disha."Tell" Disha demanded again."I told na th..""Advi" Disha warned before she could complete."Ok ok" She surrendered knowing that this time Disha is not going to spare her."Umm... I like someone" she replied embarrassed."WHAT THE FUCK!" Disha shouted jerking up from her seat.Again, everyone eyed them in irritation.Advaita smiled awkwardly at everyone, pulling Disha back in her seat."U came all the way to thi
AUTHOR'S POV"LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! STUPID LOVE!" he shouted as he slammed the wooden chair against the wall, breaking it into two.He was raging with anger.He heard the opening of the door's lock.He turned around and saw her opening the lock with trembling hands.She was sobbing furiously."Adv..." before he could say anything she ran out of the room.FUCK!SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!DAMN ABHIMANYU!He bolted his already blood dripping fist against the wall again.How can he say something like that to her?How can he insult her love?How can he hurt the person whom he loves the most in this world?How can he allow his ANGER to overpower his LOVE!A tear slipped from his eyes when the tear-smitten face of his love came in front of him.He skidded against the wall and fell to the ground as a sob escaped his mouth.He held his hair in frustration as tears flowed continuously from his eyes.Always chirpy, bubbly, and the fun-loving girl cried today, ONLY BECAUSE OF HIM.He was steeped in guilt.He
AUTHOR'S POV"Aiyoo, your baby is so fat!" she huffed trying to pull the dress down her stomach."Hey, don't bad mouth about my baby" Abhimanyu said not looking up from his laptop.Churr...He heard a ripping sound and looked up from his laptop.She was looking at him with wide eyes standing still.She looked down slowly at her now-torn dress."Hey hey it's fine" he ran to her exactly knowing what was next to come.Her eyes were brimming with tears."It was my favorite dress" she sobbed."I will buy you a new one" he rubbed her back."It got it on sale" she sobbed more."No worries. I will buy you a more beautiful one' he comforted her."Really?" she asked looking at his face."Of course, love' he smiled."Ok. Buy 3" she smiled wiping her tears.He looked at her in disbelief. Yeah, that's what pregnancy hormones do to you. Not that she was any better before."Where are you going?" he asked as she again walked to the closet."To get a new dress" she shrugged searching for a new dress f
AUTHOR'S POVHer eyelids flickered a little as a shadow block out the morning sunlight which was warming her eyelids with a soft red glow.A gentle breath gently caressed her baby soft cheeks which was of the man beside her.Strong muscular arms gently tucked themselves under her body as calloused fingers softly brushed back the tangle locks spread across her face which were disturbing his view of heaven."Good morning, love" his deep and grave morning voice whispered in her ear. His warm lips touching the nap of her neck sent shivers of pleasure down her spine.A soft moan escaped her although she tried her best to pretend that she was still asleep.She kept her eyes closed as he traveled down her neck, then her stomach, he lifted his shirt which she was wearing to her breast. His mouth moved across her breast, stomach, and thighs leaving a trail of kisses in the wake of his descent.Suddenly he stopped."Why did you stop?" she opened her eyes rather in irritation."I thought you are
AUTHOR'S POV1 month later..."Mr. Vyas, I am going home early today" Abhimanyu informed his PA closing his laptop.Mr. Vyas, his previous PA was back. He has been working in another department of the company till now."Sure. Have a good day, Sir" he smiled and went out closing the door.He came down to the parking lot and sat inside his car.His eyes fell on the ring on his ring finger and a smile spread across his lips.He kissed the ring and started the car, pulling out from the parking lot.After almost 45 mins drive, he reached a deserted house.Away from the city life...Away from the hustle bustle of the city...He parked the car and went to the garden.He crouched down on his knees and caressed the small mango tree."You are growing fast" he smiled watering it from the watering can placed beside it.He then moved towards the backyard and switched on the fairy lights which immediately brightened the entire area.Removing his shoes and taking a packet from the rack he moved towa
AUTHOR'S POV"Are you happy, Maan?" she asked."Of course Yami, I am very happy" he gave her a confused smile."Are you all happy?" she asked everyone leaving his shoulders.They looked at each other in confusion."Of course we are" they replied."Oh, why not? You all must be very happy. After all, playing with my life must be really fun" she let out a laugh that shocked everybody to the core. Most shocked was Abhimanyu."Yami..." he tried touching her."Not now Mr. Abhimanyu Dutta. Let me speak today. After all, it's my 22nd birthday. Oops! Sorry 27th" she moved away and showed her palm to stop him.All of them gulped sensing the hurt in her voice. It's out. Their secret was out."Umm... let's start with my best friend, Aastha" she smiled and moved towards her.Aastha gulped seeing Yami approach her."Aastha, my best friend, and Laksh, may I know what's the procedure to change your names? I guess it's pretty long right?" she curiously asked them."Yami..." both of them tried to justi
AUTHOR'S POV2 months later..."Yami, is Kapoor's contract ready?" Abhimanyu asked running his eyes through some documents."Yes Mr. Dutta" Yami replied noting down something in her notepad."Mr. Dutta, you have a lunch meeting with Dixit's at 2 pm" she informed."Cancel it" he straightly ordered without looking up from the documents."Why?" she furrowed her brows in confusion."I have some personal work" he replied finally looking up."Can I know your "Personal work" Mr. Dutta?" she sweetly asked.He smirked and walked towards her."I have to take my girlfriend on a lunch date" he replied wrapping his hands around her waist."Oh, so you have a girlfriend and still touching your PA inappropriately?" she raised her brows."She doesn't need to know" he replied tracing her lips with his thumb."Are you going to cheat on her?" she asked seductively tracing his jaw."Maybe" he directly looked into her eyes."Ok then" she said and pulled his collar for a passionate kiss.He too replied with
AUTHOR'S POVThere was silence between them. So profound was their love for each other, they needed no words to express it. And so, they sat in silence, on the swing in the backyard, with her head on his shoulder, with their bodies touching, holding hands in the moonlight."Do you really love me?" she finally spoke.He knew something like this will come, sooner or later."You know I love you, Yami" he sighed still not looking at her face."How much do you love me, Maan?" Once more she spoke and he looked at her in surprise."What did you call me?" he asked"Maan? I hope you don't mind. I just wanted to give you a nickname" she bit her lips."I like it" he gave her a small smile and caressed her cheek with his thumb and again stared at the moon."How much do you love me?" she again asked impatiently looking at his face when he didn't answer her the first time. Like any other girl, she was insecure too."What type of question is this, Yami? How much do I love you? Count the stars in the
AUTHOR'S POV"Because you are mine" he said possessively capturing her between him and the wall. He watched her with his eyes glinting dangerously. They were close, really close that even air can hardly pass.Yami felt her throat getting dry. Her heart started pounding loudly that it can easily be heard in the silence possessed by the room.No, she is not going to believe that it is a dream, after all, she is no kid. She knew it is happening, she just didn't know how to respond.On the other hand, he is not regretting it, it was necessary. After all, he was the victim of love for the second time. And now he didn't want to be the victim of separation for the second time.His first love was filled with sweetness and laughter along with passion. He never expected he would go through something like this ever.Advaita had brought out tenderness and protectiveness in him. But Yami made him want to possess her in ways that can only be termed as dark obsession and he himself didn't know to wh
AUTHOR'S POVThe car pulled up in front of a high-rise building.He gave her a smile before opening the car door for her like a gentleman.She softly placed her hand in his and thousands of butterflies erupted in her stomach at that moment. His hand was rough but soothing at the same time. The one she can hold on for the rest of her life.As they were walking towards the venue, she stumbled due to her heels."Careful" he held her waist to prevent her from falling.While they were busy drowning in each other's eyes, they heard someone clear his throat.Yami immediately stood straight seeing a family of 3.Meanwhile, Abhimanyu just rolled his eyes seeing Virat who was giving him a teasing smirk.But his heart instantly melted seeing 1-year-old Vedant who was looking at Yami with his button eyes trying to recognize this new human he had seen for the first time."He is so cute" Yami giggled as Vedant threw his hands towards Yami to hold him.Piya passed him to Yami laughing and surprised
"Won't you give me a home tour?" She clapped her hands and talked to the fishes in a baby voice. But Abhimanyu can easily sense that indirect tone in her voice."Come" he chuckled shaking his head and stood up dusting his pants.She giggled and stood up mimicking his actions."This is the living room" he showed her the living room which was small but cute."Wow" she looked around open-mouthed.After that, he showed her Veer and Ruhi's room and the guest room."And this is my room" he opened the door to his room as she walked inside.The room was a mixture of cream and light brown.The walls were empty except for the wall designs.There were plants on both sides of the bed."So simple yet beautiful" she exclaimed."It was all her choice. Her bakery is also like this" he sighed with a smile placing his hands in his pant pockets."She used to own a bakery?" her voice came out really shocked.He hummed."She was into baking?" she asked"She still is..." he replied looking at the empty wal
