I spoke to Teja, "These aren't a computer program! You write some code and hurray everything's connected! It is my feeling! How can you change it?".
He smiled and said nothing. What can he say? He is still digesting the words I spoke to him. I should leave him alone. I was about to leave and I saw Vennela arriving. I remembered an unread message from Vennela. I took my mobile and saw it. It was, "Ash! Do you still want freedom from me?". I replied back, "Yes! 😜". She was walking inside, stopped and saw my message. She looked at me, smiled and came to me, "Ash! Ash!". We were just smiling at each other like mad people.
"Vennela, please help me vacate the other bedroom. Teja wants to get some renovations done in that room. It's better if we get that done today!". Vennela and I went back to the penthouse and started vacating the other room. I was remembering the words Teja spoke before Vennela arrived.
"Ash! You had an option to like Anvesh! Now you have an option to accept me! I think you can rule out Anvesh! When I proposed to you, he was always behind me encouraging. He never stood up saying, "Stay away Teja! She is my girl!" So.. ruled out! There would be one more option for you, to marry some person your parents will choose for you. I heard someone say a known devil is better than an unknown angel. I am that known devil. I am the best option in any case.".
"Stop boasting Teja!", I told him.
He spoke out immediately, "I said I am a devil! In what case it can be considered as boasting!".
I clarified to him, "You said you are the best option! That is called boasting! Anyway, You are not a devil! No need to feel bad about yourself!".
He was happy to hear that, "If I am not a devil! I am an angel! Isn't it? Still the best option for you!". He called Anvesh and was telling him that I called him an angel. I denied it.
Teja asked me, "But I am Mr. Arrrogant! Why did you say that I am not a devil?".
I replied to him, "Because you are not a devil! I know that!".
I should just ask him to stop and spoke to Teja, "Teja! These aren't a computer program! You write some code and hurray everything's connected! It is my feeling! How can you change it? It would be better if you forget all about this!". He smiled, sighed a 'No' to my words, stood up and went to the juice counter.
"Stop boasting Teja!", I told him.
He spoke out immediately, "I said I am a devil! In what case it can be considered as boasting!".
I clarified to him, "You said you are the best option! That is called boasting! Anyway, You are not a devil! No need to feel bad about yourself!".

It would be better if you forget all about this!". He smiled, sighed a 'No' to my words, stood up and went to the juice counter.
Now when I remember his words, they feel good. There was nothing wrong with his words.
Next-Day! I cooked breakfast for me and Vennela. She was getting late and she wasn't even taking her call. I went to her home. It was locked and I was going back. I met Vennela and Teja near the stairs.
"Ash! Please wait for a few minutes! I will get ready! We can start soon!", Vennela was requesting me.
I smiled back and said, "I will pack breakfast for you!".
She was happy and was going inside.
Teja asked Vennela, "What about my breakfast?".
She answered him saying, "You can just eat anything! I will eat at Ashs' place!".
Teja was thinking while he spoke these words, "I think I heard this somewhere!".
Vennela smiled. She was happy to say this to Teja, "You always say these words to me when you are planning to visit Anvesh's place.".
She went inside. Teja was standing in front of me. We were silent.
I need to speak something, "Where are you people coming from?".
"We went to drop Padma at Anshu's place.", He told me.
"I heard this name somewhere!", I was speaking to myself.
"My grandmother! She is here!", Teja spoke to me and he continued, "We went to drop her at Anshu's place! Uncle and Aunty were also here. Vennela was getting late so, I brought her here. I should have had my breakfast when Anshu asked me. Uh-uh".
We smiled at each other and dispersed.
After work, I was relaxing and watching some songs on TV. I heard someone ring my doorbell. It must be Vennela but I kept the door open for her. Why is she ringing the bell? I opened the door. It was Anvesh! I was surprised! He never visited us at the penthouse even when Anshu was living here. He looked at me and started laughing.
"What?", I asked him curiously.
He said, "I have never seen you dressed so funny!".
I realized that I was in my pajamas and I didn't even brush my hair yet. I made Anvesh sit on the sofa. I went inside, brushed my hair and sat with him. I lowered the TV volume.
"Anvesh! What bring's you here?", I asked him.
He was speaking with hesitation, "I have to hand this over to you!".
He took a box from his bag. I was curious and I opened it. It was a purple watch. It was similar to the one I have.
"What is this Anvesh?", I shouted at him.
He was speechless. He was showing weird kind of expressions on his face. He was scared to hand this over to me. Yet! he is here to do that. It looks like he won't be speaking anymore. I would have to ask him some questions to understand the situation.
