We Found Us

Chapter 4

Meera's POV:

"Merra......come here see this one". Screamed Rita from the other end of the shop.

"Coming!" I yelled back.

We are here shopping for the office party. I had nothing nice to ware as said by my friend. So she brought me here to get some good clothes.

"What is it?" I asked as I neared her.

"See this, isn't it beautiful?"

She asked with shining eyes.

Pointing towards the wall in front.

When my eyes saw it, they got stuck there. It is such a beautiful pice and color. My heart just wanted it.

"I can see that you liked it more than I thought you would". She said holding my hand smilingly.

I looked at her and nooded sheepishly. Both of us laughed together. We priced it, and by luck it is affordable. We came back to the hostel after having dinner out.

"We had fun today after a long time isn't it?" Rita asked me laying on her bed.

"Hmm..." I replied not knowing what she asked.

Suddenly something hit my head.

"Ahaaa!!!" I shouted in slight pain.

I looked at the book fallen by my side. I looked at the one who threw it on me.

"What's wrong with you?"

I said annoyingly.

"I should be asking you that!"

She said grumpyly.

"Huh!" I let out a breath rubbing my head.

"I'm from then talking and your not even answering me!" She said angrily.

"Where are you lost?"

She asked seriously.

There is nothing hidden from her about my life. I thought within myself.

"I was just thinking of my life".

I said sadly.

"Please don't start off again. We've had a good day don't spoil it".

She said warning me.

I got up from my bed and went and layed on her lap. My eyes started watering as she ceased my hair.

"Come on sweetie! You've gone through so much why do you loss hope now?". She said consoling me.

"I don't know Rita. I feel so hurt and lonely sometimes. Why does it happen to me?" I asked her with pain in my eyes.

"Meera, don't think like that see I love you na!" She said and kissed my forehead.

I hugged her and closed my eyes tightly. She also held my in her arms.

AFTER FEW DAYS........

Karan's POV:

"Daddy, why can't I come to your party?" My daughter asked me sitting on the bed with a sad pout on her face.

"Princess, it's not a party where I can take you!" I said standing infont of the dressing table and doing my hair.

"But why?"

She asked and lay down covering herself with the quilt.

"Because it's not for kids...next time when they call all the family members I'll take you. I promise!".

I said giving her a wink through the mirror.

She huffed and turned over. My little brat that she is, but my whole life is around her.

"Ok now tell me bye with a sweet kiss!" I said going close to the bed.

She peeped from the blanket with a sly smile. I bent over and started tickling her, she couldn't tolerate it and jumped out laughing.

Her smile is my happiness, her laughter is my universe.

.......................................................

People were almost coming in the party hall, but my eyes were looking for someone. I don't why, but I was eagerly waiting for her.

"Yo bro, looking handsome!".

Said Shubam my close friend and colleague.

"Thank you, you are not looking bad either". I said smiling.

"Shubam, Karan come here".

Called our boss and we both walked up to him.

He introduced us to some new clients and we started greeting and welcoming our old partners too.

Soon not after long, my eyes finally got to see what they wanted too. There she entered in a dazzling navy blue shiffon saree. Every girl was in a dress or western outfit. But she stoodout as always. She is something more than beautiful.

"Karan where are you lost?"

Shubam nudged my elbow.

I awaited my gaze and turned back to him gestured nothing.

The host started announcing, and the party began by Mr. Kumar's speech and so on....

But my eyes automatically lingered around her.

Why am I feeling this way?

I questioned myself, but both my heart or mind did not respond to my question.

"Hey, guys what's the topic here?"

I heard a feminine voice.

I turned to see Niroshini with Meera and Manvi. My eyes locked with hers and a moment of silence took place.

"How to wooh our HR!" Said Sahil to which everyone laughed but he got a slap on his arm from Shubam.

"That's sad luck, as your HR is already taken". She said flaunting her diamond ring.

"Atlest he's trying, anything can happen. Who knows the future?" Shubam said smirking.

"When will this old forg finish with his gapping?" Said an annoyed Manvi.

"Seriously, why the hell does he have so much to speak?" Sahil said equally irritated.

My eyes again met hers she smiled this time. I looked at her from top to bottom and gestured that she's not looking good. She raised her eyebrows. I smirked and she huffed.

"Guys, enjoy the drinks and hit the dance floor". The host shouted out loud from the middle of the stage.

"Finally he's done!" Said Shubam with a relief.

"Can I atlest have a dance with our beautiful HR?" Sahil asked in a romantic manner to Niroshini.

She was shocked at his actions but then obliged and went with him.

"Guy is on to lay her down!" Shubam said laughing.

"Atlest he's trying his best, there are some who don't even notice pretty people around them".

Manvi said crossing her hands to her chest.

"O my lord, I'm so sorry baby. Your the most dangerously beautiful women on earth. Come on darling let's dance".

Shubam said pulling Manvi towards the dance area.

"Haha....." She laughed looking at them going.

And I looked at her smiling, she suddenly looked at me. I wanted to ask her but was scared at the same time.

"Amm... I would love to have dance with you! May I?" Said Mr. Kumar.

From where the hell did he come?

I didn't even notice him coming.

God I just hope she doesn't go with him. I prayed within myself.

"Ho, sir with pleasure!".

She said smiling and went without even seeing me.

Why do I feel hurt, and angry.

It's her choice right? Why do I care.

I told myself and stood silently.

I took few shots and looked at them dancing. I can very clearly see she's not at all comfortable with him. He's trying to be all touchy with her.

I laughed to myself, good that's her choice right. Seriously couldn't she understand his intentions. How dumb of her. I sat and kept on looking at them. Her eyes looked at me and they called me.

I read in them she needs me. I took the last long shot of my drink and got up opening my blazer buttons, I walked upto them in the middle of the dance floor.
