AR FF... FROM THE TIME I SAW YOU...

PART 14...

Next week end like as if they just blink and open their eyes...
As boys didn't remember about the Valentine day coming as they were busy in their respective work...
Anjali and other girls make the list and invite everyone...
They decide to give party in Atul Mansion...
Everyone invite their friends and their partner...

Anjali and Riddhima did every decoration...
Muskaan and Sapna look after food and drinks while Nikki arrange for a DJ...
Five girls handle everything without any boys help...
They decide to invite then one day before Valentine day...

DAY BEFORE VALENTINE DAY...

Anjali call Riddhima who was in office...
Anjali call to remind her to invite Armaan...
Anjali has been calling for everyone past one hr...
Di... Bas main use ghar jaane se pehle bata dungi...Mujhe abhi bohot kaam hai...' Riddhima said as er design was lying in front of her on the table... She holds her mobile in left hand and in right hand she was holding pencil...
She was scratching the design as she wasn't happy the way it was... So she was making some changes...
Ridzy...
Its lunch time already yaar...
Aur kitna kaam karte ho...' Anjali said...
Di... Aapko pata haina mujhe new designs complete karna hai...
Abhi half se zyada pending hai...' Riddhima said putting pencil on her mouth and checking the design...
Accha yeh sab chodo 5mins ke liye... Jaake Armaan koh invite karo ok...
Baad main tum bhul jaengi aur mujhe abhi bohot kaam hai toh tum office ki baad yaha aana...
Baaki sab bhi aayenge... Humhe decide karna hai kal kya pehnengi...
Aur kal ki code yaad haina...' Anjali asked...
haan di... Sab kuch yaad hai...
Aur maine khud ke liye ek dress pasand karli...' Riddhima said...
Toh yaha aate waqt le aana...' Anjali said...
Tik hai Di... Main bas yeh design tik karti hoon phir Armaan koh card dene chalajaunga...
Waise bhi woh card nehi denge toh aayenge nehi...' Riddhima said...
Tik hai... Abhi main rakhti hoon... See u...' Anjali cut the call and Riddhima went back to her work...
She didn't know a pair of blue eyes was watching every moment of her...

ARMAAN POV...

Valentine Day was coming...
First time in my life I wish I could be with a girl in Valentine day...
Not only any random girl...
With Riddhima only...
I secretly keep looking at her while she works everyday...
As we got a new deal and we had to complete it before the time, Riddhima was putting all the effect she could...
She has been working for hrs in days and I came to know she has been skipping her meals...
I wish I could go and pull her out from her cabin and take her to canteen or out for lunch like we used to have before...
Yeh kya ho raha hai mujhe...
Kyu mere dil manta nehi hai...
Jo nehi ho sakta uske baare main sochte kyu hai yeh...
Riddhima main kehdiya...
Saaf lafzo main ki woh mujhe chance nehi de sakte...
Phir kyu mujhe uska haan ka inthizaar hai...
Kyu mujhe uski aankho main apne liye pyar dekha...
Kyu mere dhandkane badte hai jab main use dekhta hoon...
Kyu mera dil bechain hote hai use dekhne ke liye...
Mere aankh taras jaate hai uski ek jhalak dekhne ke liye...
Kya sach main Riddhima mere liye kuch mehsus nehi karti...
Ya woh yeh sab ek dar ki wajahse abhi tak chupa rahi hai...
Kyu Riddhima...
Kyu khud ki saat saat mujhe bhi tadpa rahi ho...
Kyu apni aapko jhut bol rahi ho...
Kyu mujhse sach chupa rahhi ho...
Kyu Riddhima...
Kya huva hai ki tum kissi bhi insaan ko itna trust nehi karte...'
All these question keeps roaming around my mind day and night...
Smile come to my face when I see her in front of my eyes...
My heart and eyes always want to see her In front of my eyes...
I look at her, who was sitting near her desk...
She was stretching and making faces as it didn't go the way she wants...
Kitni khubsurat lagti hai...
Koi itna khubsurat kaise ho sakta hai...
Uski aankhe...
Mann karta hai use kho jaun...'
Unknowingly I started to admire her...
Uski nose... Jo hamesha twist karte hai jab woh confused ho jati hai toh...
Uski cheeks...
Which always shows a pinkish shade...
Last but not the least... Her rosy lips...
Sometimes smile took place while sometimes she pouts...
She always looks beautiful...'
I saw her putting her pencil in her mouth and looking at the design thinking something...
Then again she started to stretch and soon she was done...
I was waiting for my company model to come as I had to talk with her...
As nothing was important to do around that little time I move closed to the glass window so I could catch Riddhima sight...

END OF ARMAAN POV...

There was a knock on the door and Armaan give permission to come without looking at who it was...
His eyes were busy looking at Riddhima and admiring her...
He turn when he heard a girl says Hi...'
Armaan turn around to see the most important model in his company... Tani...
Like usual, she was wearing short dress letting her long legs bare...
She came and hugs him which Armaan return... He always feels uncomfortable to be around her as she always tries to hit him...
Sit... Mujhe tumse next fashions show ki baare main baat karna hai...' Armaan show her the chair and sit in his chair...
Armaan tell her everything about the show...
They were busy discussing when there was another knock...
Armaan look up and saw Riddhima standing... She was staring something which was on her hand and Armaan said coming...
Riddhima came and was little surprise to see Tani there... Riddhima forgot why she came there as soon as she saw Tani...
Hi Riddhima...' Tani said giving her a smile...
Hi Tani...' Then she faces to Armaan...
Sir yeh aapke liye Mr. and Mrs. Joshi ne bheja...' Riddhima said giving him a card...
Kya hai yeh...' before Armaan could take it, Tani snatch it from Riddhima...
Riddhima glare at her with disgusting writing all over her face...
Armaan look at her expression and was enjoying the color it was coming and going...
Armaan feels Riddhima was jealous to see Tani in his cabin...
He knows Riddhima don't like her much just bare her for the sake of their company...
Looking at Armaan who was lost in his thought looking at Tani direction, Riddhima feels her anger go over her height...
Not saying anything she left the room...
Wow... Valentine party in JOSHI MANSION...
Lekin Kissine mujhe invite nehi kiya...' Tani said giving Armaan back his card...
That's sad...
And I wouldn't be going either...' Armaan said... Not even bother to look at the card...
Why not... And for ur information Armaan, there is another note for u...'
I will check later...
Can we continuo with wht I was telling u about the show...' Armaan asked knowing her mind was on the party now...
Tani nod and them continue talking...

RIDDHIMA POV...

I enter thinking that I would get a chance to Armaan...
But to my disappointment someone else was already there...
Tani, one of the important and special models in our company...
She said hi when she saw me...
From the very first day I didn't like her... I just bare her for the sake of Mallik company...
If not I would have thrown her out showing her the right place for her...
She always try to flirt with MY ARMAAN...
MY ARMAAN...
From when he becomes ur Armaan...
Very first day my eye laid on him...
Yes... From that time, feelings started to built in my heart for him...
Unknowingly, its keep growing day by day...'
Yes!!!
Today I came to know it was Armaan who she has been waiting from very long...
Only he was the perfect man for her...
I look at Armaan and forward the card but before he could take it, Tani snatch it from her...
She glare at her while anger were in my eyes...
I look at Armaan who was lost in Tani and my anger goes above my height...
Without saying anything or looking at Tani, giving her a disgusting look, I just leave the place...
I came to my cabin and sit on my chair...
Samjhte kya hai khud koh yah Tani ki bacchi...
Boss saamne beita huva ta aur uski saamne hi meri haath se...
Aur yeh Armaan koh kya hogaya hai...
Use aise dekh raha ta ki aur koi waha ti yeh bhi nehi pata use...
Idiot... Moron... Kamina...'

RIDDHIMA POV END...

Riddhima went back to her work giving words to Armaan and Tani...
She just hates that girl Tani and it seems like Armaan was really enjoying her company...

It was around 6 when Riddhima finished her work for the day...
Today she ends early as she had to leave to meet Anjali and others...
She came out and thought to check on Armaan as she had to take permission as she needs a leave the next day...
Riddhima saw Armaan working busily and she knocks...
without looking Armaan asked to come in and Riddhima open the door...
Riddhima feels winds blow around her making her hair fly...
Thinking she might feel like that, she moves inside...
Armaan mujhe tumse baat karni hai...' Riddhima said when Armaan didn't look up to see who came...
Kya baat hai Riddhima...' Armaan asked checking some file in his lap...
Woh mujhe kal chutti chahiyeh...' Riddhima said...
Armaan look at her...
Chutti... Kyu...'
Kyunki mujhe kuch kaam hai...' Riddhima said...
Kya kaam hai... Valentine day ki party ki tayyari karni hai...' Armaan ask resume his work...
haan who bhi aur mujhe kal subah Mom koh leke hospital bhi jaana hai...' Riddhima said...
Armaan look at her again...
He didn't know Padma was sick...
Kya huva Aunty koh...' Armaan asked worries writing all over his face...
Don't worry... Just for monthly check up... Woh sirf meri saat chalti hai toh...' Riddhima said...
Ok...' Armaan said...
Thanks...' Riddhima turn around to leave but wait...
She looks at Armaan who was still busy with his lap...
Ek baat poochu...' Riddhima asked...
Armaan look at her and nod his head...
Tum kal party pe aayenge na...' Riddhima asked praying that he would say yes...
Don't know yet... Mujhe jaruri kaam ke liye raat koh nikalna hai... So will try to make it before the party end...' Armaan said...
Riddhima face fall hearing his reply...
She knows a party wouldn't be important for him more than his work...
Ok... I wish u could make it... Will be happy if u could be there...' Riddhima leave after saying this...
Armaan was surprise to hear this...
Was Riddhima really wants Armaan to be in the Party...
Or just she said becox their other friends will be their too...
Wht she means by she will be happy...
She really wants me to...'
Armaan was lost thinking wht Riddhima mean by that simple sentence...

ON THE NIGHT OF VALENTINE DAY...

It was crowded by the time of 10pm...
Lovers were enjoying the time with their partners...
It was only Riddhima who was sitting in a corner of the room waiting for someone who hasn't shown yet...
Ridzy... Yaha kyu beite ho...
Chalo na... Dance karte hai...' Atul came with Anjali who sit next to Riddhima...
Nehi Atul...
Im really in no mood to...' Riddhima said not looking at either of them...
Aise kaise chalega Ridzy...
U has to dance yaar...' Atul said sitting on the other side of her...
Please jeej...' Riddhima said...
Armaan ka waits kar rahi hona...' Anjali said near her eyes so that Atul couldn't hear her...
Music was so loud and they wouldn't know wht each other speak if they don't say it near their ears...
Riddhima nod and look at the time, it was already 10 30 now...
She was praying in her heart he would come before 12...
Aajaenge... Don't worry...'
Just then Muskaan and Sapna came both all wet...
Tum dono koh kya huva...
Bheeg kaise gayi...' Anjali look at them...
U wouldn't believe it Anji... It's raining outside heavily...' Sapna said drying her cloth...
Tum dono jaakhe kapde dry karlo...' Anjali said and both Sapna and Muskaan left...
Anjali saw Nikki standing near the drinks talking to some guest...
Wait... Main abhi aati hoon...' Saying this Anjali leave Riddhima with Atul...
Anjali came and excuse others and took Nikki away from them...
Teri bhai kaha hai...' Anjali asked...
Abhi tak aaya nehi...' Nikki asked looking at the time...
haan... Issiliyeh toh pooch rahi hoon Niks...' Anjali said...
Main call karti hoon...' Nikki move away from there as music was hell loud...
She came after 3mins and said Armaan was on his way...
Ridzy bohot derse inthizaar kar rahi hai...' Anjali said looking at Riddhima who was laughing to some joke Atul crack...
I just hope them to be together... Happily and forever...' Nikki said looking the direction...
Same here...'
By the time Muskaan and Sapna came back...
They were dancing with their respective partners...
Atul took Riddhima with him and started to dance with her...
Riddhima was push suddenly and she saw Tani...
Yes!!!
Tani was invited as she was a staff of Mallik Enterprise and Anjali had invite every staff...
Sorry Riddhima... Woh main Armaan koh abhi dekha na... Jaldi main ti toh...' She said apologizing and moving away...
As she hears Armaan name, she looks around to spot him talking with Anjali and Nikki...
Smile came to her face and next second it vanished seeing Tani hugging him and holding his arm like he only belongs to her...
Riddhima anger boils and she excuses her and went to get a drink...
It was 11 15 and Riddhima was getting really pissed off seeing Tani getting closed with Armaan every chance she gets...
And seems like Armaan was also enjoying it makes her anger go high each and every time she look at them...
Idea got in her mind and taking a drink, she move to them...
She slips the drink on to Tani dress and she moves to clean...
Why u did it...' Armaan asked...
Wht did I do...' Riddhima ask as if she didn't know wht Armaan was talking about...
U slip the drink on her dress... Why Riddhima...' Armaan ask facing her...
Becox she was getting closed to u...' Riddhima said...
Armaan was happy to know Riddhima was getting jealous to see Tani around him..
He thought to tease her further...
So wht...
Ab jisko aana hai woh aayengi na...' Armaan said...
Wht...
Tum aise kaise kissi bhi ladki koh apne paas aane de sakte hai...' Riddhima asked...
Jisko main chahti hoon mere paas ho, woh nehi chahte toh main kya karu...' Armaan said...
Toh iska yeh matlab nehi haina ki tum koi bhi ladki koh...' Riddhima said that much and stop...
Kyu... Tumhe kyu itna fark pad raha hai...' Armaan said moving closed...
Kuch nhi... Mujhe koi fark nehi padti...' Riddhima said moving back...
Fine than...' Armaan said...
Tani was back and Armaan took her to the dance floor...
Now DJ was playing slow romantic numbers...
Armaan was getting closed to Tani just to see if it effects to Riddhima or not...
and he knows when Riddhima left from their seeing them dancing closed...
Armaan excuse saying he had to make a call and came outside with to see Riddhima standing near the door... When she saw Armaan coming she moves to go out into the rain... But Armaan hold her hand...
Leave my hand Armaan...
Kyu aaye ho yaha... Jaakhe us Tani ki saat chipakte dance karo...' Riddhima said...
Armaan sniff like as he can smell something... Kuch jal raha haina...' he said with a naughty smile on his face...
Riddhima glare at him and said... Main nehi jal rahi hoon...'
Maine kab kaha tum jal rahi ho...Main kaha kuch jal raha hai...' Armaan said...
Riddhima just free her hand from his hold and move out into the rain...
Riddhima... Kaha jaa rahi ho...' Armaan said coming after him...
Main kahin bhi jaun...
Tumhe kya hai Armaan... Jao us Tani ki paas...' Riddhima said as she make way to the garden...
Itna gussa kyu ho rhi ho...' Armaan asked...
Kya fark padta hai main gussa hoon ya nehi... Tumhe jo karna hai karo...
Jiski saat dance karna hai... Karo... Just leave me alone Armaan...' Riddhima said...
Armaan hold her arm and pull her towards him... She bump to his chest with her hand landed on his muscle chest...
Tumhe itna kyu fark pad raha hai ki main Tani ki saat closed dance kiya toh...' Armaan ask holding her by her shoulder...
Kyunki...' Riddhima was to tell him and when she looks at his eyes, she was lost in them...
Kyunki kya Riddhima...
Batao...
Kyun tumhe itna fark pad rahi hai...
Tum toh mujhse pyar bhi nehi karti na...
Aur mujhe ek chance bhi nehi dena chahte hai...
Toh phir aaj kyu fark pad rahi hai tumhe main Tani ki saat itna closed huva..
Kyu Riddhima...'
Armaan ask as the rain was falling down to their clothes washing it and them both...
Armaan look at her face where rain drops where shining and making her look more beautiful than ever...
Riddhima...
Tumne jawab nehi diya...
Kyu tumhe itna fark pad rahi hai...' Armaan asked moving her closed to him...
Kyunki main...' Riddhima started but words weren't ready to come out from her mouth easily...
