The plane landed a hour ago, and our driver is going to pick us up in a moment. London has been amazing, I met so many entrepreneurs and I got to really know about their mindset, those people taught me so much, I don't think my college would have taught me. *lol*

I had a bag and even dad had one, "I can clearly say that you are capable of running Rudra technologies" dad said with a proud face, he patted my shoulder, "I was so scared whether you would be able to handle all the stress and deadlines or not but in the past days you made me believe that you can do anything Rudra. & i'm so proud of you for this" he almost looked so emotional.

I hugged him, "I'm your son afterall how wouldn't I?" He chuckled hearing this.

"Yeah, but I'm not a cold guy like you" he laughed, "that's a exception." I replied as I put my glares.

Both of us talked for a while about how life would be when I start working, and how I wouldn't be able to make time for family.

In no time, I got a call from our driver that he has reached and he is waiting outside.

When we reached outside the airport. I saw Manas waiting for me, I was so happy seeing my bestfriend. I rushed towards him and hugged him. God knows how much I missed him when I was in london.

"How are you bro?" Manas asked.

"Fine as hell" I smiled and rested my hand on his left shoulder as we were walking towards the car.

"Did you bought the numbers of those girls" he asked with his excited voice. The fact that I reached Mumbai safely isn't what it is concerning him but numbers of some stupid girls. Wow.

"You didn't actually mean that" I said calmly as I tossed my glares and tucked it in my shirt.

"I meant that" he cried, "don't tell me you didn't bought their numbers" I shook my head in response. "Okay" he said with those needle piercing eyes and sat in the car. I sat beside manas whereas dad sat beside the driver.

Manas wasn't talking to me as I tried talking to him. Is he really this crazy for those girls? Damn. "C'mon yaar, manas. Stop giving me a cold shoulder" I said, "it is my work to give a cold shoulder"

He still didn't responded to me. "Manas, really? Stop being a drama queen"

"Yeah whatever" he let out a big gasp and looked out of the window. "Are you going on date with Preshtha today?" He asked me with a plain face.

"I don't know" I replied. It's  been so long I have talked to Preshtha. The last time I talked to her was the video call I did in london. That's it.

I kinda miss her

She is the most happy girl in the world, who is always curious about what's going on around her. She is so empathetic and I like that so much,because a icy guy like me needs that kinda stuff.

"You just know to hang people around, don't you?" He taunted me. This was getting frustrating. As he was indicating his irritation towards me. Like what the fuck, girls here are hot too.

"Stop giving me taunts just because I didn't bought those stupid numbers" I almost shouted at him because I am not liking his damn attitude right now. "& it is hangout not date" I said in a cold tone.

"You love her"

"No, nada, not at all" I shoo him away showing a middle finger. Thank God dad didn't spot that otherwise I would have got killed there and then.

"You do, but whatever when are you going on the date?" He asked me with excitement, thank god the excitement is back and this Time I didn't felt like correcting his date into hangout. Who knows he might get angry again. I don't know how to make someone forgive me.

Our car touched home in a hour and I was hanging out with Manas, or more likely I was playing football with him because I did missed my football practice too. When our evening snacks were ready, dad called us as mom was off for her shift already. So dad made us some snacks and ordered some from our favourite family restaurant.

I feel like a kid.

We took our respective seats on the sofa. We were not really in the mood to sit on dinning table and eat our snacks. If mom would have been here right now she would have made us sit on the dining table and revise our table manners.

Dad made some bhajey (pakodey) and there were variety of them, paneer bhajey (paneer pakodey) kanda bhajey (onion pakodey) batata bhajey (aloo pakodey) & mirchi bhajey (mirch ke pakodey)

Well I'm not a big fan of Mirchi bhajey. So I prefer other bhajey

As we were eating, notifications were flooding from my phone. I opened my WhatsApp and saw messages from aai Preshtha and Kiara.

Aai: have you reached?

Me: hoo (yes)

I opened Preshtha's message and a smile instantly crept on my face instantly.

Preshtha: yoo, you bought the gifts I asked you to bring for me?

Me: of course, ma'am how can I forget it?

Preshtha: good boy. *wink emoji*

Me: you aren't concerned about the fact that I've reached safely or not.

She sent me a voice mail, which said, "why would I even, you can kill anyone with that icy attitude. So nope" and then she laughed.

Me: mean huh -_-

Preshtha was typing a message but in that moment kiara's notifications started flooding. When I checked her messages there were ten messages already.

*A LITTLE TRIGHER WARNING HERE*

Kiara: Rudra baby. I love you

Kiara: Rudra, please talk to me. I love you.

I gasped looking at the image and it scared the shit out of me.

I called Kiara.
