ARNAV
I kept on tossing and turning on the bed, I was the kind of a person that would go to sleep immediately as soon as I fell on the bed, but that wasn't happening today.
I tried blinking my eyes severally like I had seen them say on the internet but neither did that help, I don't know why, but today I just couldn't sleep.
It wasn't like I was stressed about something or anything had me worried, I always accepted everything as it came in life, I rarely stressed or worried about anything so I was sure that wasn't the problem.
Like they say, you can sleep when your mind isn't at peace, well mine today seemed it dint have the peace it had always.
I sat up feeling frustrated, I had been trying to get some sleep for over two hours now but I just couldn't so I grabbed my jacket, put it on and headed out of the hotel room.
Gladly the hotel had a huge surrounding inside so I could take a walk safely so that's what I did, I looked at my watch, it was pretty late at night but knowing Rahat, I knew he wouldn't be asleep yet, so I decided to call him hoping that talking to him might help some way.
He received my call on the first ring, it was as if he was waiting for me to call.
"Bro, you shouldn't be calling at such times, what if I was busy doing something? Girls don't like disturbance." He giggled.
"I don't really want to know that Rahat, keep all that information to yourself." I shrugged.
"Okay, but seriously you know, I wonder if you will ever get married or even a girlfriend in your life. When will you start looking at girls that way?" He asked.
"Like the way you look at them? No thanks." I laughed.
"No. You know it's difficult to explain on the call, we will discuss this girls matter once you are back, tell me why did you call me at such a time? Missing your little brother?" He asked.
"I couldn't sleep so I thought I'd take a walk then I thought I'd call you and check on you." I said.
"Or check if I have chased Khushi away already. Don't worry, that would happen someday too." He laughed.
"You still have problems with her? I thought you had started liking her."
"Well whatever, let's not talk about her, or wait, let's talk about her. Why are you so concerned about her bro?" I heard Rahat's cheeky voice, I was sure he was smirking like an idiot.
"Umm let me think, because she works for us and I promised her mother she would be safe." I rolled my eyes even though he couldn't see me.
"Okay I get it, you are just trying to be the good boss, great keep it up. Anyway I've got a date to go to, I'll talk to you later."
"What kind of a date do you have at almost midnight?"
"You know what kind of a date bro." He laughed, I nodded as I disconnected the call and continued with my walk, I hoped he hadn't done something stupid to piss Khushi off, Rahat could do weird stuff to people he dint like.
I sat down on a bench, the air at this time felt so cold and fresh, it was beautiful. I closed my eyes and inhaled a deep breath and as I did that, out of nowhere, Khushi's face showed up.
I opened my eyes immediately and looked around, of course she wasn't here, it was weird that I was even thinking of her and seeing her.
I stood up and started walking again, but now that Rahat had mentioned Khushi, I couldn't stop thinking about her, every little thing about her kept on coming in my mind.
How she told Rahat off when she came for the interview, how much she disliked him, how she made faces whenever she saw him and how she would behave completely opposite of that with him.
How gorgeous she looked in that dress that I had gifted to her, I couldn't forget that date we went to ever, it was like the most beautiful time I had had.
I remembered when we had fun at the beach throwing sand at each other and how I rolled her on the sand and how she laughed and giggled, and how that made me happy.
I tried to think about other things, my work, my music but every time Khushi's image would pop up in my mind out of nowhere and again I was left thinking about her.
It was weird, I had never thought so much about anyone ever like this.
I pulled out my phone from the pocket once again and stared at Khushi's phone number, I had this sudden urge of wanting to talk to her but I also dint want to disturb her given that she might be asleep by now.
I dint even have anything important to say to her, even if I called her and she was awake, what was I going to say?
Oh God! Never had I ever thought so much before calling anyone in my life. I mean I was Arnav Raizada, who wouldn't want to talk to me?
I brushed of all the thoughts and dialed her number, it rang for a while but she dint pick it so I decided to disconnect it, but when I was about to, I heard her voice.
"Hello." She has such a beautiful voice, it felt like a melody to my ears.
"Hi, it's Arnav." I said.
"Yes sir, I know it's you, I have your number saved, remember?" She giggled. All I could imagine was how she looked when she would giggled like that, so beautiful.
What is wrong with you Arnav!
"I hope I dint disturb your sleep, were you asleep yet?" I asked.
"No, I was just reading, I spent the entire day shopping so I took a nap after we came back, so I wasn't sleepy." She explained.
"Oh, who took you shopping? I hope you dint go alone." I asked worriedly. The thought of her roaming around Mauritius all alone was scary.
"No, Rahat took me, he was good to me today, quite a surprise." She said.
"Oh that's a surprise, but I told you, my brother isn't such a terrible guy, you see I was right." I said.
"Yeah, I hate to be wrong but whatever. Anyway how was your trip? Is the work done?"
"Yeah, I'll be leaving tomorrow morning, and we've been here too long, we should also head back to India in a day or two, if we listen to Rahat, we would stay here forever and he would be busy with girls all days" I laughed
"As you wish sir, you must also be having a lot of work back in India." She said
"Yeah, this was just kind of a break from all the work, get ready to be super busy once we are back."
"All set for it."
"Okay, anyway I'll get to bed, I just called to check if you were doing okay, I'll see you tomorrow, have a goodnight."
"You too sir."
I headed back to my room after talking to her, I felt happy after talking to her, it was strange, I had some sort of a giddy feeling inside me.
I sat on my bed wondering why I was feeling so different suddenly, that too with Khushi, she was my manager for heaven sake, what was wrong with me?
Was I becoming like Rahat, thinking things I shouldn't about our managers, this was definitely Rahat's influence of me, he was making me think weird things about Khushi.
I felt more frustrated now, I mean it was great talking to her and that's why I felt frustrated because I just realized that's what I wanted to do since long, it was the reason I wasn't able to sleep, because I wanted to talk to her!
But this dint make sense too, I mean why would I really want to talk to Khushi?
And how was talking to her related to me not being able to sleep? It was confusing, and I dint want to keep thinking about it, it was just going to make me angry and I dint want that, what I wanted was sleep, so I was going to get some.
I wrapped myself in the blanket and shut my eyes and finally after all this struggle, I fell asleep without realizing it, just like it happened always.
