ArjunPari#74 Thursay 08Aug2013 The wishes which had a deeper meaning!

I was waiting for dad to arrive at station. I was about to call  him and I saw my brother coming for me. I was surprised. I asked him why he was there and not my dad. He smiled at me and answered "Dad was busy. I was the only person who was free. So, I came!". "Oh great!" I said.

I was driving the car. My brother was updating the wedding status to me. He was happy doing that. I remembered Kiran's gift, I asked my brother to take it and unwrap. I wanted to see what was inside it. That was a small box. We were waiting at a traffic signal.There was a question mark on his face. He was looking at me and he poured the content on his palm. We were getting it now.

They were
A rupee coin
a plastic coin of 1 rupee coin size with golden impression of heart shape on it.
Same type of plastic coin with golden impression of a smiley on it.
Same type of plastic coin with golden impression of a strong muscled hand
And same type of plastic coin with micro sized letters on two sides.
My brother carefully read those words. One side, it was happy married life and the other side was happy healthy wealthy loving life.

Woh! When did Kiran become this smart!
My brother smiled and dialed to call. I thought it was Kiran.I found out that it was Monica. He thanked her for this lovely gift.He confirmed with her that it was her idea. My brother is smart! Not Kiran!
Those wishes had a deeper meaning. It didn't matter how much it costs, what matters is the feel filled in those wishes..what matters is the love behind it..what matters is that you express your feelings to the person whom you care about. That creates happiness, It spreads love. Monica! It is a good thought, am happy to have you as my friend!

ArjunPari#72 Tuesday 06Aug2013 Arjun!What happens if she rejects at the end?

We were about to go to a restaurant for lunch instead of daily cafeteria food. Pari was requesting all of us to go out for lunch. We were waiting for others to join us. Kiran and Rakesh were with me. Kiran was ignoring us and was busy with his mobile
Rakesh started the conversation. It sounded like he didn't want me to get hurt because of Pari.
Rakesh: Arjun! I heard that you love Pari!
I smiled and answered "Yes"
Rakesh: Does Pari know?
Arjun: Yes! She does! I went through many funny situations to make it happen.
He smiled and asked. He was very curious to know.
Rakesh: What does Pari feel?
Arjun: She wants some time.
Rakesh: Oh! She said like that. Sounds great!
He got mischievous and asked me "When will she say I love to you?" I smiled.
"Arjun! What will happen if she rejects you?"

I didn't want to hear that word at all!
Arjun: I don't think she will reject. She likes me. She doesn't want me to get hurt.
Rakesh: Just imagine and tell me what will you do if she rejects at the end?
Arjun: It will be very painful. But I can't force her to love me. What I can do is to try until its possible. If my feelings are good enough for her, she will accept me without any doubt.
Rakesh: You can't trust girls in this matter Arjun!
I interuppted him and supported my Pari. My Pari will never hurt her. I trust her!
Kiran heard us and started teasing me "When did 'Pari' become 'your Pari'  Arjun! Oh my..my..Arjoon!"

Others joined us and we went out for lunch. Kiran and Pari were fighting over a piece of snack. Pari took a fork, poked Kiran's hand with it and snatched away his snack. She was teasing Kiran after that. I was laughing at them. Life has become so much fun. It was childish but the life is complete this way.

Pari, It feels so much delightful when you are around. You make me complete. You make me feel happy. Come to me soon. Am waiting for you!

ArjunPari#73 Wednesday 07Aug2013 Very well planned surprise to Pari! :)

Like everyday, I spent my time happily with Pari, Kiran and others in office. I made sure that they will be attending my brother's wedding, I finished all my work and reached railway station in time. It was going to be a boring journey. I requested Kiran to come with me but he couldn't. He had lot of office work pending on his side. My brother already scolded him for not coming with me. He said, he will atleast come to drop me, but he didn't.
The train was late to arrive. I was alone, watching people walking around. Then suddenly some one was trying to snatch away my wallet from pocket. Before I did something about it, I realized that it was Kiran. We chatted for some time. I asked why he was there when he broke his promise to drop me at the railway station. Then he took out a small box wrapped with a shiny wrapper. I teased him that it was too small for a gift. He assured that my brother will like it more than anyone else' gift because it had a deeper meaning. Because he couldn't come with me, he was sending that with me to cool my brother.

I boarded the train and settled myself. I was wondering what was that box filled with?I was about to open it mischievously inspite of Kiran's warning. I was about to do what he doesn't want me to do! And then I forgot about it instantly. I received a message from Pari.

"Arjun! this project leader! he wants me not to leave for home until I fix this issue which I was working on from last three days." There was another message from her.
"I wish it was my brother who is getting married.I wish I was on that train"
I replied ":D" I was laughing at her.
Pari replied "Arjun! Why are you laughing at me? Am angry!!"
"I was just imagining the funny faces you are making in office right now!" I replied back.
Pari sent a ":)" as reply.
The conversation was going long and I was planning a surprise for her.
She fixed it in sometime. She was very happy but it was too late. I asked her how she will reach her room. She said she will take a company cab.
Some time passed and she sent a message to me. "Thank you for sending Kiran to drop me! Good nyt Arjun!"
There was one more message from Kiran.
"She was surprised to see me at office. I am getting sure that you will win your love game" It was pleasure to read it.

ArjunPari#71 Monday 05Aug2013 Arjun! Why don't you do this for me?

I have to finish my work before I leave home today. I was sincerely concentrating on work. Pari and others went for a break. I was still working at my desk. My mobile received  a message, I took a very short break to have a look. It was Pari.
"Arjun! I know that you are hurrying to finish up your work. But.. Arjun! Why don't you do this thing for me?"
I received another message from her.
"Relax! take a small break!"
I smiled and then I received one more message.
"Come and join me for a short walk. Dont make me wait long :)"
Pari.. I smiled to myself and started. Pari, She just has something in her. This something makes me feel attracted to her. Pari's one smile and everything feels so god. I feel like spending all time looking at her smile.

There she was..smiling at me..waiting for me..After seeing her I was no more in mood to work. We were walking. It was pleasant for eyes. It was a beautiful location. Beauty was added to it with Pari.
We spoke about mischievous things we did in our college days. She was interested to hear about the funny things we did. She laughed a lot after hearing. Later it was her turn and I was very much surprised to hear.
She started asking me to never bring this up in front of everyone. It was a secret.
"It was a Saturday night. We planned our farewell party to celebrate last days of our college. We wanted something different, so we planned a DJ night at a friend's place. I jumped walls and came out of my room. My mom and dad were thinking that I was sleeping in my room. Actually I was dancing and having fun. We were there till early morning. They dint even notice and I was back home. I pretended as if I slept whole night!"
I said "Things which you are have done are far mischievous" She smiled mischievously.

We spoke about other things. We went back after few minutes and I started working again. Kiran reached my desk. He was sitting in front of me. He wasn't speaking anything. I was pretending to ignore him. I understood that he was there to tease me.He stayed silent for few minutes. He couldn't hold the silence, he started laughing out and I couldn't resist. We were laughing crazily.

How good does it feel when you are in love. Now I know! this is how it feels..simply happy :)

ArjunPari#70 Sunday 04Aug2013 Why does your brother have to get married next week?

We were at Basketball court. This child Krishna, I feel like he has grown a lot in few days. He was playing great. He wants to surpass me. Those words " Stay away from my Pari sister" I still smile remembering..
"Did you both fight? Why are you staring at her like that?". Kiran, Pari and me behave like 12 year kids with them. It looks funny. We were leaving after our game. these little devils were behaving like Pari was leaving today itself. She would be attending my brother's wedding next week.
Krishna came to me " Arjun! Why does your brother have to get married next week?" Kiran and Pari smiled at me. Pari will be staying in Bangalore only for few days. They were looking forward to spend more time with her. My heart ached too. Pari would be leaving Bangalore.
Kiran asked "Why don't you shift your business to Bangalore!" I was looking with curiosity. She laughed at him and assured that will not happen.My Dad thinks it as not  just as a business! Its more than that to him.

"Arjun! Didi you remember my cousin?" Pari asked.
"Why won't I?" I smiled. She smiled and continued.
"He has a girl friend. She is an American. He couldn't tell it to our family then. that is why he rejected staying in India and broke my Dads heart." I was happy after hearing that.
"That's great Pari! It is pleasure to hear that."Pari smiled and Kiran was teasing me. Later,he started teasing Pari, but I was not able to hear them.

That cousin Pari speaks of chose that lady and I chose Pari. This is all destiny. Whats written in my future? that's unknown.. But it will be with Pari. I will make it happen, because I love Pari. That destiny with Pari, will happen because I love her so much. I can't keep myself away from happiness like Pari! So it will happen!

ArjunPari#69 Saturday 03Aug2013 Pari will kill him! WITH LOVE..

Kiran was on call with Monica and I was speaking to Pari.
Pari was going out with Sunanda for shopping. She said she'll spend whole day shopping for brother's marriage and lot of other things. She hurried and ended the call.
I was browsing. Kiran was still speaking to Monica. He was showing hundred kinds of expressions. Monica would be scolding him. He ended it after sometime and it was looking like he got double recharged now. I asked him what happened in call.
"Oh Arjun! I tried to act romantic with Monica. She couldn't take it for some time and later she started acting naughty and I couldn't take it." I laughed and I could see that he is overpowered with joy.
We were helping in kitchen. Kiran was imitating Pari.

"Arjun!I need you.. Please come here.!"
Everyone was watching him. He was really entertaining. He was narrating my love story to them whole day.
"Arjun! please wait for me before you leave!"

"Arjun! take my umbrella. Go carefully! Its raining!"
"Arjun! Lets celebrate our birthdays together"
"Kiran! Couple watches! You are going to die in my hands"
"Arjun! My Mobile num.."
"Arjun! My mail id..send me our pics at orbit mall"
 "Arjun! I like you.. Give me some time"
"I love you Pari..Oh No.. Jessi.."
He was describing everything, every moment. My memories were all fresh. Each and every day was like a milestone of my love story. He continued.
"Kiran! What will you do if we both like the same girl?"
Oh No! he remembers!
"I thought you were thinking about Monica. Still I said that I will help you"
It was going on. I should stop him now. 
So I shouted "Stop it Pari! Enough for today!"
I was thinking about her, so her name came out. Now Kiran continued without stopping. Why do I always get caught.
"take me to lunch Arjun!.. Pay them whatever you want to! 
"Guys Pari will kill him with love.." He smiled
"How does it matter who pays the bill? this that?".. All about my Pari..

ArjunPari#68 Friday 02Aug2013 Arjun! Pari doesn't love you! I love you!

I was seated at my desk. I was waiting for the watch to show 07:00 PM. I will go out with Pari. Where will we go? I was wondering about these but I need not. Pari will take care.
Kiran came to me and was requesting me to go out with him tonight to watch movie. I softly rejected him saying am going out with Pari. He got surprised that he wasn't aware about that. He started making fun of me.
Brother! We know each other from long time, from childhood! How could you do this to me? You chose Pari to me. How could you?
Aah! His comedy went for long time. He was remembering me about how we did many mischievous things together. And then he started black mailing that he will call mom. Oh No! My mom asked why I was rejecting him. Pari pinged me at the same time. I escaped saying "I am leaving!" and handed over his mobile phone to Kiran and left.
We went to the restaurant. Pari spoke "Kiran said that you liked coming here!" I was feeling delighted with her words. That's her specialty. She is a form of happiness.
We discussed and ordered some food. We were waiting. I was thinking what to speak and how to start. Before I started Pari did start.
"Arjun! I think I know what you wanted to ask me yesterday" I was listening curiously "If I am wrong, you can correct me any time" She paused and continued "Arjun! I like you!" My eyes opened wide" But I need some more time..to think..to know more..to become more friendly! That's all!" She was facing me with an expression to know if she was correct. She was correct. I smiled. She understood.
We spoke about Kiran, my family, her family and many more. And when it comes to food, she gets more cheerful. As the time passed she started acting mischievous.

"Arjun! You were curious about me. But! coming to the fact. You never said "I love you to me!"" I was about to agree with her and then I remembered.
"Pari! You know me. I can't hide things. Do you remember?"
She was trying to remember and soon she got it.
"Arjun! Please stop! Kabeer and Sunanda still make fun of me with that incident.We started laughing.
The time passed so fast that it was time to pay the bill. Pari insisted to share the bill and she also said this "There is still time for you to pay my bill!" Does it mean she is just taking time to confirm but not to reject. Wow! I am a lucky man! After that I dropped Pari at her place and went back to room.
Kiran started again. "How could you Arjun!" I was pretending to ignore him. "I wont accept this Arjun!I will tell every naughty thing you are doing..to aunt and uncle, still I ignored." He shouted "Arjun! My darling! Pari doesn't love you! I love you!" I ignored him and slept smiling.

ArjunPari#67 Thursday 01Aug2013 When will you say 'I love you Arjun!'

"Arjun! Arjun! I need you here. Please Come!" It was Pari's sweet voice and I was not dreaming. She was facing some issue with the software application and I was her teacher after all. Those words ..huh!
"Arjun! Arjun! I need you. Please come to me!" When will I hear them from Pari. It has been long..It has been 66 days. I don't know how time passed after Pari came into my life.

We were in the canteen. Everyone was there except Pari. She was having some important work which has to be finished immediately. So she asked us to leave and she will join us later. When I heard this from Kiran, I wanted to wait for her, so I didn't eat and waited for her. Kiran was teasing me and everyone else were with him trying to make fun of me. We went back. She wasn't there. I called her. She was already in canteen. I joined her later. By the time I reached, Rakesh was there. I wondered how he reached before me, He was with us just before few minutes. He left us both saying he had some work. Pari and I were seated facing each other. She was concentrating on food as if she hasn't eaten in last few days. I was making fun of her.
"Pari!" I smiled "Relax!Eat slowly!"
"Arjun! I am very hungry!" She continued."I don't know why that guy wanted that work to be done urgently." She started chewing. I started laughing at her and she was insisting me to stop.We were having good time together.

She bought a big cup of ice cream and sat to finish it. She finished half of it and she realized and said "Arjun! lets share this!" Haha! She must have said "Arjun! Lets share our lives!" I was thinking this inside my head and smiled out. Pari was asking me why I was laughing at her unnecessarily. She made me eat the other half cup saying she will get fat if she eats ice cream alone, and I was thinking "I may get fat if I live alone without you" I smiled again. I wanted to spit out my thoughts but that would be too soon for her. I should ask her this question today.

I was staring straight into her eyes. They were shining with happiness. She was completely satisfied with her food. I asked "Pari.. When will you say.." I couldn't finish that question. She was staring into my eyes and smiled. I said "Leave it! We will speak later!" She smiled again and said "Arjun! I think I have an Idea what you were about to ask!" She thought for a moment and continued. "Arjun! Lets go out for dinner tomorrow night". I responded immediately. "Sure!"."And.." she continued "Keep Kiran out of this! You and me!Lets go for dinner!" Both of us smiled.

She wanted to speak something. Will she say that she loves me?
Actually the question was " When will you say  love you to me?". I have to wait for one day to know what she wants to tell.

ArjunPari#66 Wednesday 31Ju1y2013 Fun over breakfast

Pari made us wake up early. We were about to visit the tiffin centrer of Pai's cook. Shiva woke up after a hundred calls. Pari, Kiran and me reached the stall. Shiva was the first person to join us. Mahita and Neha joined us few minutes later. I was little surprised to see Rakesh too. For the first time 'Nitin' joined us. Mahi's boy friend.

Shiva and kiran were competing to eat. Everyone liked the breakfast. Nitin and Mahita were having good time together. Even if they both were staying in Bangalore, they hardly have time together, so they were making use of this opportunity. Kiran and Rakesh were making fun of Pari. Me and Neha were disturbing Shiva who was concentrating on food.

Shiva and Kiran just finished their 4th plate and were aiming for 5th. All girls were cheering them. I was having so much fun watching all this., Alll were praising Shiva, that he was great. Kiran was trying to divert us. He is such a comedian. Everyone was laughing over him.

After competition with Shiva, Kiran was stll ON. He challenged Pari. The competition was to finish a single 'Vada'(South Indian breakfast) each. Pari started eating pieces of vada. Kiran was still staring at Pari without eating.

Pari was having hard time, She was unable to concentrate on eating as Kiran's funny behavior was distracting her. We were wondering, why Kiran wasn't eating at all. Pari was about to successfully finish her task, only one piece was left. Kiran asked Pari to watch her. Kiran took the whole vada into his mouth at once. We were all laughing at Pari. It was clearly Kiran, who won the competition. Pari cheered herself, ate the last piece and declared. I am the runner up in this competition. Please cheer me up! Everyone started clapping for her. Kiran was feeling bad as he didn't get cheers. He started discouraging Pari, but she was unaffected. Eventually Kiran failed in the competition even if he won it technically. It was Pari who won it with her witty nature. My Pari's witty nature.. It was just life before she entered. And After her.. It is life which has smiles..fun..hope..all of them which feels like happiness..
I am sure.. My selection or decision to bring Pari into my life is 100% correct. And I will make Pari feel the same, when will she choose me..? I am waiting for that moment to come.

ArjunPari#65 Tuesday 30Jul2013 You are looking beautiful Pari!

I was waiting for her at her bus stop. She was there. She was wearnig that white dress again. She was looking beautiful. I forgot why I was there.

“You are looking beautiful Pari!” I smiled.

“Oh! Thank you!” She was surprised. “This is first time you are giving a compliment directly. To me! I am surprised!” We both smiled.

“So, you wanted to ask something. What was it Arjun?”. I remembered.

“Yesterday you asked me to wait for you before leaving. Why was that?” I asked.

“Oh Arjun!” She smiled and answered “It is .. hmm.. So that we can go home together. That’s all!” I was feeling good. Bus was there. I was feeling so much happy that I forgot to get into bus. I realized when Pari shouted my name out. She was smiling at me.

“Sometimes you look so cute!” She said and I was behaving strangely again. I had mixed feelings. I was embarrassed and was feeling happy too.

In office, we were all staring into our systems. Our Project Leader asked us to pay attention to him. He was standing in the middle of all cubicles. He introduced the new member of our team. He will be the replacement for Pari after she leaves. When he was speaking about this, My heart ached but I was also happy for Pari. Pari will do what she wants. Soon, I will also do the same.

The new team member’s name was ‘Rakesh’. He was also from Delhi. When I heard that I looked at Pari’s face. Pari’s face was shining with a smile.

We were seated for lunch in the cafeteria. Rakesh also joined us. Pari and Rakesh were sitting beside each other, they were playing jokes as if they knew each other from long time.

Kiran told me that they were classmates during graduation. What a small world!

I was very busy with my work in office. Kiran forcefully took me out for a break. Kiran started the conversation.

“Arjun! I have an interesting story about Rakesh. I can’t wait to tell you.”

Kiran! Why would I be interested in that guy’s story?” I ignored him.

He smiled mischievously and said “Because this story has Pari in it!”

My eyes were widened. I was shocked. Kiran continued.

“Back in college, They used to be good friends. But when this Rakesh guy proposed Pari..” He paused. I was staring at him with curiosity. He started making fun of me.

“Arjun! Why would you be interested in that guy’s story?. I had to request him for some time and after some fun time, he continued.

“She rejected him” he said and it was reflex and I said “Great!!”

I was very happy listening that. I thought when I proposed her, she didn’t reject me and she also wants to drop me at her room. Did I really propose? I will think about this later.

I dropped her at her room and went back to my room.  I was feeling happy and this happiness is called love..
