Ek ladki bheegi bhagi si

Sooti ratoon me jagi si

Mili ek ajnabi se

Koyi aage na peeche

Tum hi kaho yeh koi baat hai??

Jia

This day couldn't possibly be worse than it already is...

         First my tailor called saying the designs were not ready yet....then I arrived late to a meeting with a potentially biggest client and to top it off my car was throwing tantrum so I had sent it to garage on my way to the meeting so here I am stuck without my car while I am frantically calling my dumb best friend Krusha....who I messaged to pick me!!!!

'The number you have dailed is unreachable'...the voice from my phone said ...I groaned internally...I am  frustrated…whenever I am in dire need this girl is unreachable  "pick up the damn phone krushaaaaa!!" I fumed.

I am sure she must be engrossed in that computer of hers and was playing that good for nothing games...one fine day Krusha will die and I will be the murderer....I was sure of it , but not today..surely one day

As I tried to call again..one more mishap occurs 'signal not found' fu#k

Surely this day can't get anymore worse....

As to humble me drops of water fell on me which soon took a dramatic turn as now it started raining heavily as if nature decided to show how much worse this day could get.

And before I could register the intensity of rain I was drenched and was running to the nearest shelter "ohhh god when I said this day couldn't get worse I was complaining not challenging.." I cried

THUD

One second I was running and the next I was on ground blinded by the lights which I was trying to block by the back of my hand.

"Ohhh for the love of god woman choose a better way to die" growled a voice bringing me back from my haze and to locate the source of the voice I tilted my head up to find a man size of a mountain hovering over me with umbrella in his hand.

THE AUDACITY

  the fucking audacity of this man to turn the blame on me after trying to hit me....I tried to stand on my feet but after slipping for two time I was finally able to stand. He is way too taller than me so I had to tilt my head upwards to glare at him..his face not visible as it night time and he was also standing away from street light ..his back towards lights..

"For the love of god man learn better driving skills" I returned his words with a mocking voice.

"Pardon me ??" He looks confused

"Apology granted people make mistakes" I shrugged

"Unbelievable...Miss it's not my fault that you don't know how to cross a road..." he deadpanned then added "first learn how to cross a road after that learn how to own up to your mistakes" in a insulting tone

"Don't you dare spin this on me..it was you who was driving like amateur and almost ran over me" I fumed unable to keep my temper in check as I glared in his eyes.

"If that was the case you would've been on your way to hospital in ambulance " he shrugged "or maybe you are just blind" he added.

"What an arrogant ungentlemanly person" I muttered. 

"Huh??? Ungentlemanly ?? Miss it's due to my gentleman behaviour that you are still alive" he commented.

"Whatever" I started marching while jolting him hard by my shoulder "pardon my blindness" I said paraphrasing his earlier comment to which he replied by a dangerous glare.

As I ran towards the nearest shelter , I searched for signal...Ahh..Thank god signal is found..

And then my phone binged with a notification '7 missed calls from krusha' ohh now she is finally off her video games

My phone vibrates in my hand ohh god I have to remove it from silent mode..I checked my phone..it was a call from krusha

"Where the hell were you?" I yelled as soon as I received the call.

"Hello to you too, jini"

"Where. Were. You ???"

"Actually..mmm...woh.."

"Games??"

"..."

"I knew it"

"Where..." krusha was about to ask something but a voice got my attention..

'Ahem..ahem' I lifted my head to know the source of it.

It was him...that same ungentlemanly blind man who now I realise is actually not just tall but might be 6'5 tall but surely more than 6'3 whose facial features now visible under the street light were sharp and his eyes....dark grey eyes which reflected light .. were staring right into my soul...

"What???" I asked irritated.

"You might need this" he held up his jacket.

"no..I don't..I am okay" I replied confused by his sudden kindness.

"now that I made you aware of your ungentlemanly behaviour no need to prove me otherwise" I added.

"I don't need to prove you anything... and I didn't ask whether you are okay or not..I said or rather informed that you need this" he pointed towards my dress then turned his head in opposite direction.

Confused I looked down and to my horror I realised I was wearing a off white georgette short kurti which was nearly transparent not transparent enough to expose my skin but enough to show the contours of it  and it stick to my body like a second skin ....embarrassment knocked all the words out of me.

I snatched jacket with a strong force and wore it much to my disdain if it was not for this dress I would have never accepted his help

"Gentleman behaviour?? Huh..." I taunted. "If you were a gentleman you wouldn't have noticed..." I slipped as my embarrassment didn't allow me to complete

"Mind you...I am a gentleman and certainly not blind" he stated and while turning away…."and also you are welcome"  he taunted insinuating how ungrateful I am and with this he started walking..dripping nonchalance and arrogance behind him and soon he drove off.....

And here I was standing on a pavement burning his car with my stares

Its due to that kameeni...its all her fault..where is she??? Ohh wait she is on call

"Its all because of you" I yelled.

"Who was he??? Haan ..seemed like a gentleman who was trying to help you"

"Nobody..ignore him and mind you I am still waiting here"

"But that nobody has a very good voice.."

"Krutika" I warned

"Ouch!! 'Krutika' full name basis??? This gentleman seems to have an effect on you"

"Shut up and come to pick me up"

"Already on my way" with this she hang up

Please god no more drama
