Ishaanas phone was continuously ringing. She was damn irritated. The ringtone was just like Bhavya, it was damaging her eardrums.

"Who the hell is calling me in this morning itself?" Ishaana thought.

She got up rubbing her eyes. She the number was an unknown number. She took the call.

"Hello"

"Good morning Ms Ajnabi!" Came a cheerful voice from the other side.

Ms Ajnabi?

"Excuse me! Who is this?" Ishaana asked.

Gauri slowly got up. She was yawning. She saw Ishaana talking to someone one phone.

"Who is she talking to? That too in this morning." Gauri thought.

"What is this Ms Ajnabi? You didn't save your prince charmings number?" Om asked.

"I think you dialled a wrong number. I am not your Ms Ajnabi." Ishaana said.

Hearing the name Ms Ajnabi, Gauris eyes widened. She quickly snatched the phone from Ishaana.

"Hey!" Gauri said breathing heavily.

Ishaana looked at Gauri with a weird expression. Gauri smiled sheepishly at her. Ishaana actioned who it is. Gauri royally ignored it giving her a sheepish smile.

"Ms Ajnabi?" Om asked.

"Yes Mr Khadoos." Gauri said smiling.

"Oh! Mr khadoos! Means Mr Oberoi!" Ishaana whispered.

"What happened to your sound?" Om asked.

"Cold!" Gauri said.

"Uh-oh! Who was that? The one who took my call?" Om asked.

"My friend." Gauri said.

"Ms Ajnabi! I didn't call you to hear these one word answers." Om said.

"My friend is two words na?" Gauri asked.

"Should we start the argument based on this?" Om asked.

"Let's do something. Let us promise not argue anymore. Lets see who will break the promise first." Gauri said.

"We talked to each other just a day ago and you are talking about promises? So fast uh!?" Om teased.

"Mr Khadoos! It's better if you stop teasing me. Because if I am the first one to break the promise, you will have to see the worst!" Gauri warned.

"Theek hai meri Maa! I promise I won't argue with you anymore." Om said.

Gauri smiled.

"So let's be friends?" Om asked and paused for few seconds. "For now!?"

"What is with that for now?" Gauri asked narrowing her eyebrows.

"We can't predict the future na? What if you come behind me and threaten me to be your boyfriend? Me being the poor, innocent boy may fall into your trap. So afterwards we won't be just friend anymore na?" Om asked.

"Mr Oberoi, I guess you are behind me to break my promise first!" Gauri asked.

"Ms Ajnabi, I wanted to see the worst." He whined like a child.

"Looks like you will have to hear all the gaaliyaas from my mouth in the morning itself!" Gauri said.

Om laughed.

"Why are you laughing?" Gauri asked confused.

"Nothing I was just imagining you calling me by names in this voice. It will be so funny!" He said and laughed again.

"Omkara ji!!!! Please stop this warna mein bhool jaaunga ki aap The great Omkara Singh Oberoi hai." She said with an extra sweet tone.

"Did you just call me Omkara ji? Usually wives call so na? So you also started to imagine yourself as my wife like I do." Om said making her blush.

"I... I have more important work that listening to your stupid flirting in the morning. Bye." Gauri said quickly cutting the call.

She smiled thinking about what he said. But soon she felt someone glaring at her. She saw Ishaana looking at her.

"Will you care to explain what is going on?" Ishaana asked narrowing her eyebrows.

"Vo, it was bhavyas Bhai!" Gauri said while blushing.

"I understood that. If you want to talk to your Mr Khadoos, go on who is stopping you? But not in my phone. I am standing here like a statue for the past 20 minutes and you were talking and talking. Why can't you talk to him in your phone?" Ishaana asked.

Gauri smiled sheepishly at her.

"Vo kal raath I was trying to save his number in my phone but it slipped aur.... Screen.... " Gauri said pointing at her phone on the table with the Brocken screen.

"Tho? Repair it and talk to him. Why my phone?" Ishaana asked.

"You take my scooter till my phone gets repaired and till then please give the phone to me." Gauri said.

"No way! I won't sacrifice my phone for your silly scooter. I will walk to my college." Ishaana said.

"Fine! Then use my wardrobe for one week." Gauri said.

"What!?" Ishaana exclaimed. "You are sharing your wardrobe for a man with whom you just started talking yesterday!? Gauri!!! Is it something more-"

"Oh come on Ishu! You know this will last for maximum one month. Afterwards everything back to normal. It's just a mere attraction. He is just someone to flirt with and to have some little time pass." Gauri said to Ishaana or was she saying that to herself?

"Theek hai!" Ishaana said and went to washroom.

"Is it just a mere attraction?" Gauri thought.

....

It's been week since Bhavyas BIG accident! After one week she went to college.

"I hate you both! You didn't even call me after the accident." Bhavya said making faces.

"We have other important works to complete." Gauri said.

"You both don't love me at all. It's me who always thinks about you both and you both don't even care for me." Bhavya said making faces

"Ishu! You handle this drama queen. I am going." Gauri said and went to attend her usual call.

"See! She doesn't love me at all. That mere phone call is more important for her than me." Bhavya said dramatically.

"Not only her I also don't like you at all." Ishaana said.

Bhavya rolled her eyes.

"Vaise, who is she talking to? She looks so happy." Bhavya asked.

"Your bhai!" Ishaana blurted out.

"Kya?" Bhavya asked shocked.

"I mean seeing her expression you can understand na, it's a new fling! So for you it's jijaji na? Jijaji is equal to bhai. Issliye I told so." Ishaana said and smiled nervously.

Bhavya nodded confused. On the other side Gauri was talking to Om not even bothering about the surroundings.

"What cold is this Ms Ajnabi? Your sound is still the same. It's freeking one week." Om said.

"It takes time Mr Khadoos. From childhood itself it's like that only." Gauri said.

"Ok. So tell me your name atleast. I am fed up calling you Ms Ajnabi all the time. You know me, my name and everything about me. But I don't know anything. That doesn't seem to be fair." Om complained.

"Let's do one thing. I won't call you by your name or surname. I will act like I don't know you. I will call you Mr Khadoos only." Gauri said.

"Still you won't reveal your name na?" Om asked.

Gauri giggled.

"Why are you in a hurry? I told you na? One day when we meet each other I will reveal every thing about me. My name, my family and everything. Just wait a little." She said.

"Ok, it's time for the meeting. I will call you later." Om said and cut the call.

Gauri smiled and went towards Bhavya and Ishaana who were discussing something.

"What happened why is Ishus face like this?" Gauri asked.

"Oh nothing I was just reminding her that this was the same day when that Abhimanyu Raheja proposed you." Bhavya said and the next second both Gauri and Bhavya burst into laughter.

"Oh god! How can I forget it? I had to bear this idiots tantrums for two long weeks. And she was complaining like I was the one who compelled him to propose me." Gauri said and laughed again.

"Poor Ishu! Her love life isn't working properly. I think you should go and check your horoscope Ishu." Bhavya mocked and Ishaana made faces.

"Bhavya, leave the thing about horoscope. She was cursing me for that random boy and I didn't even accept his proposal. She had a crush on him and just because of that he shouldn't have proposed me. Is there any rule like that?" Gauri asksd teasing her more.

Bhavya laughed holding her stomach seeing Ishaanas expression.

"I don't like him anymore." Ishaana said.

"But you liked him na?" Bhavya asked.

"I don't wanna talk to you. You guys are mean!" Ishaana said and stomped her feet.

Bhavya and Gauri laughed soon Ishaana also joined them.

Weeks passed. Gauri used to talk to Om everyday. Bhavya was not at all aware of this. Ishaana just thought it as a new fling for Gauri. But Gauri very well knew what her feelings were. But her stubborn mind was not ready to accept it.

One day, Gauri was excited as usual to call him. But today he called her. But what he said shocked her.

"I can't be friends with you anymore." Omkara said.
