Sorry for the late guys!

/* One more month passes with this ignore status in Anshu's relation. They talk a few times on phone and meet just once that too formally. One day when Anshu calls Dhruv.. */

Anshu- Hi.

Dhruv- hi

Anshu- Had dinner?

Dhruv- Yeah. You?

Anshu- Ha. What did you do today?

Dhruv- Just some works. What about you?

Anshu- I went to the mall with Diya. I read a page in one book. It's awesome.

Dhruv- which book?

Anshu- If it's not forever it's not love.

Dhruv- Finished it?

Anshu- No I didn't buy. Forgot my purse. I have to go again to get it.

Dhruv- I'll get it for you.

Anshu- You?

Dhruv- Ha why?

Anshu- No need. I can go.

Dhruv- I will.

Anshu- Okay

Dhruv- Author's name?

Anshu- Durjoy Dutta

Dhruv- Okay. Talk to you later. Good night.

Anshu- Good night.

/* After two days when Anshu went to the parking lot, Dhruv was waiting for her. She had a big smile on her face as soon as she saw him. She almost ran to him not wanting to waste even a few seconds of the little time she got with him. He smiled back. */

Dhruv- Hi. The book was delivered yesterday. I booked it online. (He gave her the book) Is this the one?

Anshu- Ha thanks J

Dhruv- okay I have to go. Take care.

/* He vroomed off on his bike without even giving her a chance of saying anything. Anshu was left in a shock. She wanted to spend some time with him instead of material things like this book but Dhruv never understood her. She went back home in a depressed state. Stella welcomed her with a pretty smile. */

Stella- What happened dear? You seem to be upset most of these days.

Anshu- Nothing much auntie don't worry.

Stella- If you say so. I have your favorite bowl of maggi to lift your mood up.

Anshu(gleamed)- Thank you. This is the reason I love you.

/* In the next month, dhruv's call reduced to a trickle. He used to come to college regularly but didn't talk to her much. Now Anshu started losing her patience. That night when she called Dhruv he cut her call. She felt very bad and messaged him. */

Anshu- What happened to you? Why are you ignoring me?

(He didn't reply. After 10 minutes she texted again.)

Anshu- Why aren't you replying to me?

(She was a little worried now.)

Anshu- Reply please.

(After an hour she got a reply from him.)

Dhruv- What?

Anshu- What happened to you? Where are you?
