Infinitely Infinite

Chapter 2

The next day, though Heera had to go work, her mind was actually pre occupied with all these wedding stuff, that Tarun and all junk. Yes, According to her it was a junk, which she is trying to avoid.

And that, when she had to deal with patient who had auditory hallucination, she found it hard to concentrate and interact with the person. All she thought was only about that day's evening and about their meeting on Skype. Isn't it weird to hear, that the bride and the groom are going to see themselves and are going to get to know about each other through a social network. Definitely, their parents must be uncanny, but shouldn't blame them because it is their responsibility to make their children, to get married.

Heera, being too restless decided to text Shriya and divert herself from these thoughts.

Hey, what's up?! Where are you?  - she texted and got up from her seat and went into the water closet that was attached to her consulting room. She splashed water on her face, to come back to present and to proceed with her work.

When she came back to her seat, she had got a reply from Shriya.

Dude, i know. You are not  okay. Just wait there, i am on the way. - Shriya had replied, because of which she just , exhaled heavily and got some relief.

Soon, Shriya reached the spot and they both decided to go out for lunch. They both bounded into Heera's car. Shriya was riding shotgun.

'Come on, Heera.  Don't think too much. You will see him tonight, and then we will talk about this. ' Shriya said biting a piece of her sub sandwich.

'What you will see.  We will see him tonight.  You're going to stay with me tonight. I can't do this alone.' Heera overwhelmed, wiping away the mayonnaise with the tissue paper.

'So, you want me to be with during your talk?! '

' Yes, yes and yes.! ' Heera, and sipped her glass of Coke.

' Okay, Chuck this matter out of your mind now. Go, work. I will come home, once i finish my works..' Shriya said and stood up to take a leave.

This is why, Heera needed Shriya with her.  Though Shriya didn't talk much, and repeated the same thing which she had been saying since previous night, still Heera felt like everything is okay, after spending some time with her.

Heera went back to hospital and started her work!

'Listen  Tarun, talk to her confidently. Like, the first impression on you should be the best. And, strive to do so. I am sure, she will like you and you will like her too. ' Maya being unstoppable, advised Tarun.

' Maya, will you please stop?! I am thinking of every possible way to avoid this wedding and you're asking me to impress her. ' Traum snarled at Maya.

' Don't bark at me Tarun. This is the age to get married. We will see her and see, you will accept this proposal. I am sure. ', Maya being too confident said these words.

' Don't be silly Maya, How can i decide something just by seeing her in a video call. ' he writhed his face and said.

' Okay, Fine!! I won't tell you anything about this. We will talk about this tomorrow morning. ' She said and went off to her room, but that's when Akshay came for him.

' But why do you freak out, whenever we take this topic?! Basically, What's your problem!? ' Akshay smirked.

' I don't want to get married. That's the problem!! ' Tarun replied immediately.

' I can't help this out. Just think off  from your mother's side, and then speak. And stop hurting your mom by refusing this proposal. ' he said and he went back to his room.

Tarun deeply thought about this and decided to talk to Heera on Skype, the following morning as told by his mom.

As usual, the sun vanished and it was dusk already. Heera packed her things and was getting ready to get back to home. She drove back home in sometime and Shriya was already there.

Heera, made her way into her room to take a shower. Ok, Heera. Cool. Now go out and tell your parents that you will talk to him tonight. Just, try speaking to him and then decide about this. She thought and this wasn't the first time she thought about this since yesterday.

She wore her favorite balck capri trousers and came out to the living room.

'Dad, At what time, i will have to talk to him?! ' She asked her dad.

' Good, that you agreed to talk to him. You will talk to him tonight 8.30 p.m. ' her dad exclaimed in joy.

She gave a fake smile and ate her food.

Throughout, till the clock struck 8.30,she felt nervous and kept on pestering Shriya about this. And Shriya being her friend and well wisher had none other way, than consoling Heera.

Heera was in front of her laptop with Shriya nearby her, when it was half past eight, and as soon as she signed into her Skype account, she had got a request from another account, and it was Tarun. Heera had to accept his request as an initial step to let him into her life.

She waited for a few minutes for him to call. But then the monitor blinked, showing two options, Accept, decline. She turned and looked into Shriya, asking what she should do now. 'Come on Heera.' Shriya said in an excited tone, that made her to do the next thing.With no second thought she accepted the call.
