Chapter 5 B - The Disaster From The Past

Khushi dropped payal at her appartment on her way back home. She was exhausted from the London trip and the meeting. As she entered her house she went straight to the kitchen counter for a glass of water and a painkiller. Passing nearby the phone, she switched on the auto-

responder. She was taken by surprise when she heard the voicemail. A husky male voice! As soon as she heard "Khushi", that was enough for her to know that asr was on the line.   

ASR: Khushi,... ASR here,I don't have your mobile number, Don't forget to give me your full contact details next time we meet. I just call to inform you that anshika khurana wants to meet us tomorrow 9am at her mansion. Ok! Don't be late Again! See you. 

Khushi  felt like loosing her self control when ASR is around. She was worried, irritated, angry. She had to clear her mind and get hold of herself. But this can be done only after some sleep. She barely slept these last days due to the rush in meetings and the london trip. She went to her room, take off her sandals and reach the bathroom. She opens the water and let it fills the bathtub. Meanwhile she got some candles and towels from the closet. She ties up her hairs and put on her favourite music. Afterwards she undressed herself and carefully climbeb into the bath. Closing her eyes, she rest her neck on the bath pillow, losing herself in the lyrics of the song being played. 

2 a.m., where do I begin?

Crying off my face again

The silent sounds of loneliness

Wants to follow me to bed

I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most

I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well

Dancing slowly in an empty room

Can the lonely take the place of you?

I sing myself a quiet lullaby

Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again

Too afraid to go inside

For the pain of one more loveless night

But the loneliness will stay with me

And hold me 'til I fall asleep

I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most

I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well

Dancing slowly in an empty room

Can the lonely take the place of you?

I sing myself a quiet lullaby

Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again

Broken pieces of

A barely breathing story

Where there once was love

Now there's only me and the lonely

Dancing slowly in an empty room

Can the lonely take the place of you?

I sing myself a quiet lullaby

Let you go and let the lonely in to take my heart again

On the other side of the town, ASR reached his house. Edward, the house caretaker, opened the door.

Edward: Hello Sir

ASR: Hi

ASR handed him his coat and told him to bring coffee to the study. He went to his study room and started working on his laptop. After finishing his work, he rested back on his chair thinking about the happenings of the day. He opened his drawer and took out a picture. Lost in the picture, he smiled thinking about that day it was taken. Khushi was annoyed with him as he was flirting with some girl forgetting her presence. Then it took him a hard time to cheer her up. He made silly faces while she was angry and some friend of ASR captured this moment.

Flashback: 

Press News: Arnav Singh Raizada, the new talented designer who's been working for the famous fashion house, is now jobless. Mr Playboy is not at all worried about his job status. In fact in an interview he said that "after 2 months, people will come to me in search of a job."

According to recent news, Mr Raizada resigned from his post to accomplish his wish of owning the most famous fashion house. And with the Young Designers Talents competition coming up, it won't be a surprise to find the name of Arnav Singh Raizada in the list.

3 o'clock in the morning, ASR was sitting infront of his laptop in his small appartment, finishing the last minute touch ups of his designs.The designs were to be presented to the Young Designers Talent competition at 9 am the same day. ASR would not have been on such a 

rush if he turned off the invitation of a sexy girl in the club. But old Habits die hard. ASR is aware that this is a serious 2 months competition which will have a solid impact on his future career. The Young Designers Talents Competition welcome new designers from all parts of the world. However there was no chance to see a change behavior in ASR. He is confident that he can manage both his professional life and his entertainment. He believed that instead of being a boring workaholic, its better to be a crazily perfect business man. It makes life and deals easier.

8.30 a.m at fashion studios.

Surprisingly ASR reached the premises of fashion studios before time.As soon as he entered, all eyes turned towards him. He was so perfect and relaxed that apart from the girls, even guys were fascinated by his looks. His captivating eyes and carefree style made him being loved by everyone in a short time. He was such a guy that once he laid his eyes on a girl, that girl is definitely on his lucky list tonight or tomorrow night. At that moment a new girl entered and the lustful eyes of ASR was not far.

ASR: hey beautiful!

New girl: Hi handsome!

ASR hands out his hands

ASR: Hi! Arnav Singh Raizada 

The new girl brushed off his hand and came closer to ASR. She brought her lips to his cheeks and then whispered to his ears.

New girl: Malaika Kapoor! Hoping to meet you again!

9.15 a.m at fashion studios.

All candidates were in the conference room for the initiation. All of a sudden, someone rushed into the room, making every one to turn in her direction. She was tensed as everyone's attention was on her. She tried hard to ignore the several pairs of eyes watching her and excused herself for being late to the instructor.

On the other hand, ASR who's been standing next to her since a while was mesmerised by the beauty in front of him.
