"Maybe, just maybe, your 'someday' is almost here "

Arshita's Pov

I woke to what must have been the most uncomfortable position and as I slightly opened my eyes something shifted behind my back and as I turned to see it I fell off the couch.

I let out a loud shriek and rubbed my elbow which directly hitted the floor.

"Shit" I heard and looked up at Shubman who woke up and sat straight. "Are you okay" he asked.

I Ignored and kept rubbing my elbow and sat up straight on the floor in front of him. I rubbed my eyes and looked here and there to know about my surroundings.

That's when I hear the very own laughter of Mr. Shubman.

I looked in his direction and he was in a fits of laughter looking at my face when I asked "What"

"You..... you should... have seen your face" he said trying to control his laugh.

"Very funny" I said making faces and he was still laughing like an idiot.

"True, it was pretty funny" He said laughing out loud and rolling over the couch.

"How about I push you off that couch, tb pata chalega kitna funny hai" I said sternly and he controlled his laughter sitting straight.

I didn't remember falling asleep last night so we would have slept without noticing. I tried to recall last night's events when realization hits me and I the memories came back.

We didn't get to finish our 'game' but we decided to take counts of our questions. I already asked him two and now it was his turn.

I remember how Shubman told me everything about his family, his sister and how he opened up to me and also made me feel better after all that shit.

Now when I looked at him laughing like this and about his stories last night, I couldn't be mad at him anymore.

"Where's the kitchen" I asked looking up at him.

"Kyu" he asked moving his hand with his hand.

"Taaki mai knife dhundh ke tumhe maar saku" I said and he gave me horrified look.

"I'll make breakfast you idiot" I said and he relieved a bit.

"OH" he said and a small smile came to his and with much enthusiasm he said "I have an idea"

I looked at him confused as his smile was way too bright for ten o'clock Sunday morning.

"Let's go on a picnic"
_____

"Tell me" I asked looking at him when he was finding ingredients for his 'recipe'

"Tumhe sach me khana banana ata hai?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"Of course, mai bhut talented hu" he said proudly.

I chuckled and looked around the kitchen and it was just perfect. Like the ones you see in tv or some cooking show with everything.

Shubman opened a cupboard and took out a picnic basket and showed it to me with a huge grin.

"Maine tumhare uss crazy idea ke liye abhi Haa ni kiya" I said when he asked me to go out on picnic I said, no.

"Shut up, we don't even have anything better to do" He said and opened the fridge to take out some drinks for his 'picnic'

He saw the look on my face and insisted "Come on, don't you miss going on picnics" he said.

"I never went on one" I said looking down playing with carrots and capsicums.

"Oh" he said and I'm sure he didn't expected this as the look on his face changed and he came closer to where I was standing and a smile made its way to his face.

"OH Arora" He said and I looked up at him "Tumhara mere bina kya hoga" he said and went away grinning and took a bowl and a whisker and started making something.

"Fine, let's do this" I said and he looked like he won million dollars.

I didn't know what things should be proper for a picnic so I just decided to make some egg rolls and so I picked up some veggies and the chopping board and started chopping them.

"How" Shub said and I looked up at him "How do you do that" He asked eyeing the chopping board.

"WHAT" I asked him.

"Chop so fast and nicely" He said and I smiled showing him the knife in my hand.

"It's just, the knife is really sharp" I said and he gave me a horrified look.

"Very nice thing to say when you just threatened to kill me" he said.

I chuckled and again started chopping them "Jail jane ka koi plan ni hai, so chill" I said and he smiled.

Damn! I saw him smile for real this time and it's totally obsessive.

"Btw tum kya bana re ho" I asked him tip toeing to see what he was mixing.

"Waffles" he said.

"What else are we going to make" I asked him.

"Maybe, some sandwiches" he said and I nodded.

We kept working in silence and I was really feeling good right now maybe because I was cooking which I loved to do and it helped me to relax.

Now and then I kept asking him where some of the ingredients were and kept doing our work. Shubman came to wash his hands behind me and splashed some of the water with his hands on my face.

In return I picked up a carrot and threw it at him but he ducked and it missed and landed on the floor.

"Aye, vo lag jati toh" he said picking up the carrot.

"Btw, your aim is horrible" he said smirking.

"I missed it on purpose" I said trying to cover up as I knew how horrible my aim was.

"Exactly, warna itni paas to koi bacha bhi phek le" he said chuckling.

"It was carrot's fault" I said.

"The carrot" he said and I can bet he was trying not to smile. "It was the carrot's fault"

I flushed "Shut up"

I let my hair fall and hide my blush as I looked down too hard  on the roll I was cooking.

I could feel Shubman still staring at me and I couldn't look up at him and when I couldn't ignore it anymore I looked up and meeting his eyes.

"WHAT" I asked and he shooed his head smiling saying "Nothing"

I was definitely not convinced with his 'nothing' so I kept looking at him and again asked "What"

"I was just thinking" he replied without looking at me "it's really nice to see this side of yours"

After cooking everything Shubman grabbed my hand and took me upstairs and yo my shock he stopped in front of his sister's room. I looked at him and saw him taking a deep breathe to make up himself for opening the door.

"Maybe Di's clothes might be of help for you" he said and opened the door and we entered the room.

I looked around the room, it was totally different as for a girl's room. It had posters on the walls, everything scattered here and, some frames were also there.

I looked at Shubman and he was looking around the room silently and then spoke up "She never cleaned her room" he said with a small smile.

He then walked upto her wardrobe and opened it and picked up a frame. I went to where he was standing and it was a picture, I guess of him and her.

"Is this her?" I asked and he nodded.

She was beautiful.

"I found this everywhere and she hid it here" he said staring at the picture.

"How was she like" I asked him and he looked at me and gave a small smile. 

"How do I tell you" he said and for a second thought. "You know ek baar mai jb 6 saal ka tha, ek ladka mujhe school me bully krta tha, and one day di came and told him to fuck off" He said chuckling a bit.

"Did he left" I asked.

"At first he didn't, but then she just punched him on the face and he ran away" he said and I chuckled.

"She's like that" he said and smiled.

"She sounds awesome" I said trying to imagine a six year old Shubman and his sister trying to save him from being bullied.

"Yeah" he said and sighed adding "she is"

"Let's find a dress for you" he said and started looking through her wardrobe.

"Is it ok for me to wear her clothes" I asked hesitating as I was borrowing something from someone whom I didn't even know.

"It's fine" he said and turned to me "waise bhi mai to pehen ni skta" he said snc I chuckled.

"You can try" I said giggling and he turned to me holding a dress against himself. "Really" he asked.

"How do I look" he said looking at himself.

I burst out laughing and he kept the dress back and took out a dress and handed it to me "This will suit you"

He went out and I immediately changed in that dress and it fitted me perfectly.

I opened the door and Shubman stood there and when he saw me a smile made its way to his face and he came closer.
"You're looking beautiful" he said I  couldn't help but blush.

He looked at my face and smirked. "Mai bhi handsome bn ke ata hu" he said and went to his room to get ready.
