PARI 1 ~HIM~

He was sitting in the balcony that overlooked the city. There were lights all over the city since it was night time and it was a splendid sight. But he was not even aware of the gorgeous sight before him. His thoughts were fully concentrated on the picture he was hugging close to his chest. It was the picture of the woman he truly loved, had always loved and would always love. He could not imagine a time when he had not loved her. Of course the feelings had developed gradually but at the moment, he could not recall a time when he had not loved her deeply, with all his being. He believed in love but had never believed in love at first sight. Yet now when he thought of it, he realized that is what it had been for him. He had seen her at a friend's party. Her tinkling laughter had attracted his attention and he had turned only to see that the owner of the laughter was even more beautiful than the laughter, which was no less than the sweet tinkling of bells.

He had been introduced to her and that night he could not sleep because he had been thinking of her and wondering whether he would ever meet her again. Luck had been by his side though. Or was it destiny? Imagine his reaction when he had met her on the sets of his new youth show and gotten to know that she would play the role of his girlfriend in the show. He had felt like dancing a jig when he had been given that piece of information. Nothing could get better than that and that whole day he had roamed with a huge grin on his face, not caring who thought what about his expression.

Two years passed and of course they had become very close to each other, considering they had had most of their scenes together-romantic as well as other scenes. His feelings for her had increased over time and he had always tried to convey them to her through the scenes. Sometimes he wondered if she realized what he felt for her because he would also catch her looking at him with a puzzled expression on her face when she thought he was not looking. He used to mildly flirt with her on the sets and also during interviews. She used to blush prettily and smile that gorgeous smile of hers that could melt a stone. Sometimes, when she felt bold enough, she would reciprocate the flirting but most times she used to blush and smile away to glory. And his heart would do all sorts of dances.

He used to wonder what she felt for him but she was a person with a reserved nature and hardly let anything slip. Her reactions to his flirting and his actions always used to convey a positive vibe. The fact that she was very comfortable with him while they shot romantic scenes was also a plus point. It showed somehow that she trusted him. But he could never be sure.

He looked at the picture once again. It was a picture of them taken on the last day of the shoot for their show. The expressions on their faces were a mixture of sadness and happiness; sadness because they would be leaving the sets that had been like a second home to them and parting with long-time friends, and happiness because they had completed their show successfully and would finally be getting the break they deserved after working hard for two consecutive years. He was more sad than happy though because he had realized that he would not be seeing her as often as he used to.

He was accustomed to spending at least 12 hours a day with her on the sets. He was used to seeing her every single day and now he would not have that opportunity.

Even when she used to arrive late at work he would feel uneasy until she arrived. Then he would get back to his normal self. That used to cause his friends to tease him but he never minded. He loved being teased on her. She also used to be teased quite a lot on him, especially when they carried off a romantic scene realistically. He used to like thinking that the scenes turned out realistically because there were true emotions included there. He knew that theory was correct when it came to him but he was not at all sure about her. He had thought of asking her about her feelings many a times, but he always backed out due to the fear that if she did not feel the same way, it might affect the great friendship they had. And that was something he would not risk even if his life depended upon it. He held their friendship in high regard and so did she. He knew he would not be the same without her as a friend in his life. She was special to him, in every way he could think of and somewhere within him, he knew she thought of him in the same way.

That last day of the shoot and during the party, he tried to work up the courage to talk to her about his true feelings for her but somehow the opportunity and time never seemed to be right enough. They were interrupted every 5 minutes and finally he had just given up and decided not to tell her.

Now, as he looked at the picture, he realized he missed her more than he could put into words. He had called her up frequently and even met her a couple of times. But it was never the same. He wished he could bring back those times when he would spend hours on end with her. It was not that they used to spend every minute together on the sets, but just the feeling that she was around was enough to make him feel at peace. He was assured that he would just have to glance around to catch a glimpse of her reading her script or practicing her lines or chatting to friends. But now all that was not possible.

A month had passed and his missing her became deeper and stronger. He had to tell her what he felt for her. This was it! There was going to be no more holding back. If he was lucky, she would reciprocate his feelings and if not, then well, he would just have to convince her that he was the one for her ' the one she had been waiting for all her life; her soulmate.

He picked up his phone and dialed her number.

"Hello." Her beautiful voice said.

"Hi. Can we meet? I need to talk to you urgently. Same place we always meet. In 10 minutes." He said.

There was a pause before she spoke just one word, "Okay," and somehow that pause and that single word convinced him that it would be a YES from her side too.

That made him smile and he said a quick Bye before he hung up and went to get ready to meet her-the lady of his life; the lady of his dreams; his SOULMATE.
