Distant Love

Her Name...

           He came to the terrace. The atmosphere was so cloudy. Black clouds were all over the sky. There was a cool breeze blowing. As he guess Siya was actually on the terrace wandering here and there on the terrace in pain. Vikram watched her and came near her. 

           " Hi. What's up. You are not looking well. " He asked her in excitement. 

           " My head is going to burst now. I have a worse headache right now." She shouted in pain. 

           " So why did you drink that much last night. " Vikram asked her directly. 

           " I didn't know that it was alcohol. Wait, I didn't told you that I drink last night. Were you in the same club yesterday? " She asked him in doubt. 

           " Umm.. I just guessed. Isn't it common having a headache next day after drinking. " She replied satisfied with his answer. " Oh. "

          He took a sigh of relief that she didn't doubted on him. He immediately got that she doesn't remember what happened last night and nobody reminded her till now. So he decided not to tell her until she remember it herself. 

           " Well, what a coincidence? I have something to eat and drink which can help you to cure your headache. " He said to her pointing in the direction of his basket. 

           " Oh really. What is it? " She said in a relief. They both sat on bench under the shade. They both didn't mind it as it's not their first time having a lunch together with each other. 

           He opened his basket and took out some hangover homemade drink and porridge. He served one bowl to her and one for himself. Siya tasted it and was amused because she ate porridge before but this one was so delicious and she loved it. 

           " Wow. Who made this? Did you make this? This is so delicious. Really. " 

           " Does it suits your taste. I made it myself. " "He was very happy that Siya liked it. 

           " Take some more. " He served her porridge in her empty bowl. 

            Suddenly, there is loud noise of Clouds thunder. Siya was enjoying the weather so much that it can show on her face. It started raining in a short time. Both of them became happy and started enjoying eating Porridge under the shade on the rains.

            After their lunch, they sat there watching rain. Vikram asked Siya " So are you ready? " She asked him " For what? " 

            " Did you forget so soon? " He asked with surprise. " Don't you want to attend the Dope Fashion show? " 

             Siya said quickly " Oh, right. Did you get the entry pass. " He took a VIP entry cards from his coat and showed it to her. Siya tried to take the paas but Vikram put it back on his pocket. He said " You will get it on the day of the show. "

             She felt disappoint but didn't mind it. " Okay. As you wish. Where is the show supposed to be happen and when? "

             " Day after tomorrow. Just be ready at 6pm . We will go direct from the office for the show. Do you have any problem with the timing. "

             " No. It's perfect. If we go ahead of time, we can also see the arrangements. Right. " She said happily. Vikram was amused watching her happy face. It was just a fashion show and she is so excited just with the name of attending it. He thought maybe for designers it is an opportunity to get new experiences. 

             " Now it is so reassuring. My headache disappeared now. Really. There was a magic in your porridge. It would have been better if I could have made it too."

            " You can also cook. It's not that hard. " Vikram said comfortably. 

            " I can't cook. I actually don't like cooking. Whenever I make something it always goes wrong. You know. Once, there could be a fire in the house because of me. Thank god my friend came in the right moment. It was so scary. " She told him her skills of cooking. 

            He laughed hard and said " Oh my God. Really. You can't cook. Well it's okay. Not every girl likes cooking." Siya kept on looking at him " You know. You are the first one who did not judge me because of my cooking skills. I like it. Thanks. " 

            Vikram stopped for a moment then said told her " But don't you think somehow It's so funny. " 

            " You are making fun of me. " Siya turned her back on Vikram angrily.

            "Come on. Let's go now. Time is almost over. Otherwise you will catch a cold. " They both came back to their work lightly got soaked in rain. 

            The days went well and And tomorrow is the day when they will go to attend the show. 

            Vikram and his friends were having their get together at night. They all spent time with each other when Aman asked Vikram " Are you really going to attend tomorrow's show? " He said " Yes" Ajay asked him " But You said that you will not attend that show. "

           Vikram told them " Now I want to go. " 

          Ishan asked him " Do you want me to accompany you there. The show is organised by Sid you know. I know that you both are rivals and The two of you never get along with each other. " Vikram refused him and told him " No. No need to come with me I already have one friend to accompany me tomorrow. "

          They all got confused "Who is such a friend we do not know?" Shubham asked quickly " Hey, Isn't she the one that was in the club that day? For which there was a fight in the club. What is her name? "

          Vikram remembered that both of them met many times, but not even once did we ask each other's name.  " Name....? I do not know her name."
