Aakarsh's POV :-

The nerve of this girl. Firstly she irritated me to the core and then she's giving me all those looks. What the hell does she thinks of herself. I too glared at her.

"Humein socha bache hai mil ke khush honge, but ye dono to aise ghoor rahe the ek dusre ko jaise abhi ek dusre pe toot padenge." Mumma said and they laughed.
(We thought they'll be happy to meet, but the way they were glaring each other, all ready to pounce on.)

Well we all were sitting in the hall after lunch and both the parents were sharing all those old beautiful memories, but when the topic of our first encounter (mine and Diksha's first meet), came up she started giving me death glares...like I was the only one who used to tease her and not she.

"Pehli baar milte hi jhagad liye the...tab laga tha chalo koi ni bache hai bade honge to khud dosti ho jayegi dono mein...par humesha kisi na kisi kaaran ye dono mil hi nhi paye aur ab jab finally milne ka mauka mila to wahi bachpana shuru." Anu aunty said nodding her head.
(They fought on their first meeting...we thought it's okay since they are kids, they'll eventually become friends once they grow up...but then again, for one or another reason they never met...and finally when they got a chance to meet their childishness again started.)

We were just listening and glaring each other. Though those beautiful brown shining orbs were trying hard to held me captive in them but I too am a strong man....l ain't gonna give up at all.

"Chalo ye sab baatein to hoti rahengi pehle ye batao gudiya kis company se internship karne ja rahi? Uss din phone par tumlogo ke aane ki khushi me puchna hi bhul gaye. (Alright these things will be discussed some other time first tell me which company doll is going to do internship from? We forgot to ask you on phone that day in the joy of your arrival.) " Papa's words drew my attention. Now this is interesting. I smirked at her and she frowned in confusion after seeing me smirk suddenly. Ahh only if you now.

"Haan wo KV Technologies...yahi naam tha na beta ..? (Yes... it's KV Technologies...this was the name, right..?) Mayank uncle replied that KV Technologies is th...wait... what? KV Technologies..?

"KV Technologies...? You're going there..?" I asked Diksha...who nodded a yes.

"What a pleasant surprise yarrr....bachi humari hi company mein aa rahi hai..(our doll is coming to our own company..)" Papa is undoubtedly extremely happy and so is Mamma I can see her smiling to the fullest.

"KV Technologies your company..?" Uncle asked

"But your company was.." Anu aunty left the sentence incomplete. She had this deep frown on her face. I can understand her dilemma. Anybody will ask the same question I know. How unfortunate! I can't even ease this tension.

"Haan wo teen saal pehle (yeah, three years ago) we changed the name... after... after all that..." Mamma sadly said.

"Main aata hoon...(I just come)" I tried to move away from there but as soon as I got up I felt a tug at my wrist. I turned back only to see Mayank uncle getting up from the sofa. He was looking at me with a blank expressionless face. Don't know why but I found myself unable to make an eye contact with him or any other member for that matter.

"Tu bacha hai humara (you are our child)...you don't need to feel guilty over things you didn't do. Never look down beta. I trust you...we trust you." He held my shoulders strongly and made me look into his eyes, I nodded positively. He patted my head lovingly while I saw both the ladies having tears at the corner of their eyes.

Both the ladies got up and hugged me tight. I closed my eyes feeling the warmth. When I opened my eyes again I saw Diksha looking at me intentionally. I didn't miss to notice that questioning look of hers but she kept quiet. Probably she didn't find this situation suitable to ask any questions.

"Oho aap log to senti ho gaye....(ohh you people become senti...)" Her way of saying those words was completely showing how she tried to lighten the situation. Despite having thousands of questions in her mind ( I know what is thinking right now) she chose to let it go for now moreover she's trying to divert our minds for good. We again sat down and she shared all the required information. The sincerity she's having now is just unexplainable. Don't know for how long I kept staring at her.

For some unknown reason I liked this mature side of hers.

"Haan to beta ji ab aap humare company me hai... humein kitni khushi hui ye jan kar hum bata nahi sakte." Papa said smilingly.
(I can't express how happ I am since now you're in our company doll.)

"Main bhi uncle ji....(me too uncle). And this is a situation of dual benefit in my favour since I need to teach someone how to keep their attitude in check." She said the last part smirking at me.

There she is...the devil. There I was thinking about her that she's such an amazing mature person and here she's back with her all-time favourite sassiness. She can't change.

"Yeah, yeah right, and that someone is you...you need to teach yourself this art." I mocked her with equal sassiness. A smirk formed on my lips while she was looking all red in anger.

"You...just keep yo..." she pointed her index finger towards me while I didn't let her complete her sentence.

" I'm your boss now....don't forget." I said I  don't know if why but I started enjoying our illogical banter now. Her black mole catches my attention whenever she speaks something. Her brown shining orbs which shines more when she's angry i.e. after every 0.05 seconds. How much I try I get drowning into it every time.

EVERY.DAMN.SINGLE.TIME

What's happening with me why I'm feeling this much attraction towards her features?
