Chapter- 39
Third person pov

After finishing the meeting khusi came back to her desk where her colleague was all set to call it a day.

"So miss date girl are you going back home to get changed" Kriti asked while checking her friend's simple office outfit.

"No, it will take too much time. Moreover he have seen the worse so there is no pressure on me to look my best" khusi chuckled, putting her belongings into her bag.

They came out of the office chit chatting about khusi's date and her friend's new list of series.

"Go! Meet your Mr. Perfect. I will see you tomorrow"kriti weaved her goodbye and got into the bus.

Khusi Shakes her head seeing her friend making funny kissing gestures with her hands while sitting on the window seat of the bus.

"No one is perfect. But as long as we love eachother we are going to make everything perfect together"khusi mumbled.

"Beep!Beep!"her phone starts ringing, she starts walking towards the taxi stand knowing who was calling her.

She sits inside the taxi whose driver agrees to take her to her destination and hurriedly took out the ringing phone out of her purse.

She was about to receive the call when it got disconnected so she called back the person immediately.

"Hello khusi! Where are you? Have you reached there?"the person on the other side spoke out.

"No! I'm on my way,It won't take much time. I'm sorry the meeting took much more time than i expected"she made a pouty lips even though the other person couldn't see her.

"Is ok! As long as you are coming, I'm ready to wait" the person coughed after saying this to conceal the emberesment.

She turned scarlet not hoping that the person who is so reserved and doesn't like to tell but show could smitten her with words. Though she has witness more romantic persons and moments in her life and she knows how bad he is at flirting yet simple gestures by him can still make her day.

"What's up with you today" she questions sensing the nervousness in his voice, this is not even their first date.

"Nothing. I will be waiting for you, bye." He hanged up the call without giving khusi the chance to ask any further question.

Khusi looked outside at the view of passing buildings and busy streets somewhere her mind recalling the day when his voice sounded as nervous as this and the time when she discovered bit by bit the differences they share.
                     
                         Flashback
                         Khusi pov

I took the seat beside the man whose head was lowered and between his hand as if he is having the lowest moment of his life. Even though i couldn't see his face i can still feel his pain, I'm experiencing the same after all. It's been three months of me being thinking I'm going to be alright without any help.

I slouched on the chair leaning my head backwards thinking the frightful dreams i have been seeing for the past few days which wouldn't let me sleep. So my doctor suggested i should see a psychologist as my condition is not something physical but mental. I should talk it out with someone professional and not just wait, i was hesitant to come here but the last night is when my world came crashing down on me.

The past incidents when i was kidnapped, when people were lying it all happened again. I know it was all my illusion but it felt so real that i almost chocked myself with my own hands.

"Miss khusi Kumari Gupta It's your turn now"i stood up and felt a pair of eyes staring at me so i turned to looked at the person who was sitting beside me.

I was schoked to see him. I wanted to ask him what made him come here but looking at the condition he was in, it felt needless. There are dark circles under his eyes which are red and tired and his face is devoid of any colour what else could be there to ask.

"Miss! please go inside, the doctor is waiting"the person called my name again so I had to go inside.

When i came out and it was his turn to go inside so we had no time to ask eachother anything.

After repeating the same schedule or it could be that i was ignoring the situation unconciously so that i don't have to answer his questions.

After the forth day i went there in the same time excepting to see him inside the chamber and he was but what i didn't expected is to see him waiting for me outside at the waiting area when i finished my therapy session.

He kept glancing at me which made it obvious that he wanted to talk to me and for the sake of humanity I couldn't ignore it.

"So who are you wating for" i sat beside him and opened my purse to keep my prescription inside it, pretending to look like i have a reason for sitting there.

"You" I expected him to give me an excuse knowing he has an ego problem for whatever reason but the contradictory happened.

"Then why didn't you take the initiative to talk to me?" I asked him looking straight at his face.

"I was not sure weather you will talk to me or not" he said it with a straight face but i could tell there is nervousness in his  voice and eyes when it looked into mine.

I sighed noticing his legs were kind of shaking, the once confident person who was difficult to talk because he won't just stop can actually find difficulty to talk now.

Who would have known that this little interaction could make us so close to eachother that we ended up waiting for each other after every appointment.

Who would have known that our opposite personalities could actually Handel eachother.

He was so difficult to read and I was someone who talks out everything. He likes to observe things first and then decide to do it or not and i am the type who will give it a try without knowing anything about it. He likes to read book to relieve stress while i am someone who will rather dance alone on a Bollywood song at midnight then to read a book before sleeping.

We Both have learned and acknowledge many things throughout our relationship. He learned to listen to music when he felt lonely and i learned to read books to cultivate and learn new things.
He finally realized that expressing his feelings is indeed needed and i realised that i need to give myself some time before taking decisions.

My face broke's into smile everytime  remembering the day i got so angry at him when i felt ignored.

I was talking about an incident that ruined my day and noticed the boy was shaking his head without even looking at my way. So i assumed that he wasn't interested and he find my talks boring hence he ignored me.

I stopped talking and when the other person asked me, i said nothing and hurriedly walked out of the place.

The next day he came to the academy where i was doing a course and to my suprise the boy actually brought me a latte coffee. Yesterday my mood was ruined because the waiter got my order wrong and the cafe was so busy i couldn't replace it and had to drink a strong dark coffee.

I understood that his way of giving attention is different. He likes to express his feelings through actions and not words.

Later with time he often tried to show affection the way i like even though i never forced him to do so after that incident.

          End of flashback

"Madam! Madam!"The drives voice startled her.

" Y-es!" She steps outside and pays the amount.

She takes out her phone, no there is not a single call from that person even though she came here one and half hour late due to the traffic jam. Normally he would have Worridly called her but today.

"Tsk! I made him angry, he was in a good mood but i ruin it" She mumbled, dialing the number. He didn't answered so she dialed the landline number, again no one answered.
