Chapter 1
I was waving bye to my parents in the airport. They had tears filled in their eyes watching their daughter say goodbye to them. They called me once I was inside the airport and said “be careful with your stuffs and call us after you land in Mumbai, Khushi.” I was almost about to cry but I replied with enthusiasm.
“Alright Appa! I will call you both once I land”. I am working in head office of a bank in Mumbai and my parents live in Chennai with my other family members.
The next day, I went to my office and there she was, my best friend from high school who got selected to the bank along with me “Here you are! how was your trip?” She knew all about me including my first crush. I met her by accident sitting with her in my class. She was a new kid who got transferred from Kolkata and guess what I was also a new kid who got transferred from Chennai to Delhi. She was the first one to start the conversation “where did you buy your watch” and I replied informally “it is a gift from a friend” she thought I was a rude kid so she tried to avoid me but at last we became the closest friends. “It was good, I met some relatives and ate some delicious food.” Ohh, I forgot to tell my best friend’s name. its Sharon!
She was typing in her computer as she asked “Did you call your parents yesterday as you landed?”. I was annoyed by her nagging I said “Yes bro! stop nagging!”. She replied while chuckling “Alright I won’t. Did you know today a new guy is coming to our department? I heard he is from our school in Delhi from an intern. Let’s see if we know him.”
There the new guy was, Ayaan, the guy I liked silently for so many years without him knowing the only person who knew I liked him was Sharon. He came to our cabin then asked Whether this is Manager cabin? Stunned, I replied “Yes.” He astonishingly asked “Are you Khushi, the one who lived in Lajpat Nagar in Delhi?”.
