Chapter 2 - Meeting her at the cafe

"Did a hurricane occur here or what, Jhan?” entering the cabin of her only female best friend, mehek roamed her little brown eyes around the area with a wide open mouth. Not being able to believe the state of the room in front of her eyes.

“Yeah! It did and before it lash on you, just fucking come inside, Meh!” Jhanvi rolled her deer-shaped eyes at her only best friend. Dramatic ass. She thought in her mind. “Okay okay, calm down angry ladybird.” Mehek chuckled seeing a very annoyed facial expression of Jhanvi.

She knew everything that happened yesterday and was okay with it. She knew that Yuvraj was always head over heels for her best friend so why would she have suc a problem with them marrying each other? In fact, There's no other man except Yuvraj who could deal with her real self. Savage and fire self.

She came inside the room with her toe steps and sat in front of her best friend who was massaging her temples. “Why are you so tense, Jhan?” Mehek said even though she knew the reason behind it. “You fucking know the exact reason.” Jhanvi spotted while whining.

Mehek laughed and shook her head. “Out of all the men alive on this planet earth, Dad had to choose him to be my husband. I hate that fucker.” Jhanvi said irritatingly. “Aye, cursing your soon-to-be husband isn't a good idea, jhan.” Mehek joked about making Jhanvi pass her a deadly glare which did not affect Mehek.

“That doesn't work for me!” Mehek shrugged off her shoulders, took the landline phone and dialed the no. Of Jhanvi's secretary. “Hey, Mehek this side. Can you please send some peon to Jhanvi’s office? There’s a disaster here, Yes, please. Thank you.” Placing the phone back, she glanced at the room once again.

“I hate the directors of our company so much. Like who tf puts such a rule?” Jhanvi pouted while she rolled her eyes. She was definitely in a very bad mood right now. “I guess for the betterment of the company, it's a must. They aren't wrong with it “ Mehek stated her opinion which made Jhanvi scoff.

Is she her best friend or theirs?

“You are my bestie and taking other’s side?” Jhanvi glared at Mehek who shrugged her shoulders off, “I am supporting the right one here, jhan!” She says while making herself comfortable on the couch.

Jhanvi was about to say something but the knock on the door caught their attention. “Come in!” Jhanvi said in her cold voice while a peon entered the room with the broom and a dusting cloth. The secretary knew the actual disaster and prepared the peon. “Please can you clean all this?” Mehek said while the girl nodded and went to her work.

“Back to the topic Meh!” Jhanvi said while getting her attention to mehek who just signed and held her hand in hers. “Look jhan, I Don't think Yuvraj is a bad guy. He is protective, talks nicely, is a gentleman, and is perfect for you. Why don't you give him a try? Why don't you trust your father's decision for once?”

Oh god, she is again taking their side. Jhanvi pouted and rolled her eyes. “Him and PERFECT for me? No way! Even if he was the last man alive on this planet, I would never marry him.” Jhanvi threw herself back on the couch.

“And why do you think he isn't?” Mehek said and Jhanvi fell into a dilemma. Why can't she think of a single reason why he isn't perfect for her? Oh yeah,

Of course, he fights and annoys me all of the time.

But aren't you the one to start first?

Then, he always behaves rudely with me!

When was the last time you talked to him nicely?

Ugh! He always interferes in my matters and won't let me talk with any guy since childhood.

How many girls did you pass that dead glare for yours, who tried to reach him? He was just too protective towards you Jhanvi. He cares for you.

The debate between her mind and heart madr her groan in annoyance. Its true that she was the one who would start off the fight between them but that was because he always used to annoy her out of all others.

“I don't know! but I hate him and he does too!! We can never be a good match for each other!” Jhanvi whined while scratching her hair. “How are you so confident that he hates you too? Did he ever say that?” Jhanvi thought for a moment and then shook her head saying, “He didn't say but his actions speak that!” Jhanvi stated making mehek sigh. She is not getting what Mehek is trying to explain to her.

Offo jhan! You just need to change your perspective of thinking about him and I don't feel like he hates-” Her words came to a halt when her phone rang flashing the ID of the caller. Seeing the caller ID, her cheeks heated up and a smile crept on her face. Jhanvi, noticing it all, smirked and rolled her eyes.

It was Adhyansh calling her. Her senior. She received the call with a smile on her face and heard him say from the other side of the phone, “Officer Mehek, where are you? Leaving the work? I need you here in 5. Come fast.” She heard Adhyansh's strict voice and nodded at his words as if he could see it.

Officer mehek?” Adhyansh spoke after not getting a reply from her. Her heartbeat was going crazy as words were not forming in her throat but gulping down the lump of nervousness in her throat. She was about to say something but her phone was snatched away from her hands.

Han bhai, aa rahi hai wo apke pass. Itne betab na ho!”

(Yes broo, she is coming to you. Don't be impatient.)

Jhanvi said while taking the phone to her ears. “Jhanu? Is she with you?” Adhyansh ignored her words and asked the question, making her roll her eyes. “Nahi, meti atma ke sath.” She said, making her brother sigh at her disrespecting ass. “You disrespectful brat! Give her phone back to her.”

[No, with my spirit.]

“bade betab ho rahe ho uss se baat karne ke liye huh?” Jhanvi smirked while Adhyansh rolled his eyes from the other side. “Shut up jhanvi, just give it to her,” Adhyansh repeated his words making Jhanvi pout. She gave mehek’s phone to her who was just staring at her best friend blankly.

(Being impatient to talk to her huh?)

“Officer mehek, I need you here in 5. Did you hear that?” Adhyansh repeated his words and again Mehek nodded, making Jhanvi roll her eyes. “I need words. Don't just nod, officer mehek!” Adhyansh said in a commanding voice.

“Y-yes S-sir!!” Finally, Mehek replied to him, making him shake his head and hung up the call. Jhanvi shook her head as well and hit Mehek’s head. “Just confess to him already,” Jhanvi said while being done with her blushy behavior. “How can I? I don't want a heartbreak and embarrass myself in front of my crush of years.” mehek said while playing with her fingers.

She has been crushing over this guy for years and yet, hasn't confessed which made Jhanvi want to never fall in love. She is a chatterbox and if she ever falls in love with someone, she might blurt her feelings out to the person and of course, if that person rejected her, it would be a disaster. She has seen her bestie going all crazy for her brother for years and to be honest, it's not her kind of thing.

And I am happy with my one-sided feelings,” Mehek said while her eyes turned dreamy. “Why do you wanna live in this phase? What if bhai never falls for you? Because he is least interested in all this.” Jhanvi questions. “Ek tarfa pyaar ki yahi toh khasiyat hai, usko jeene ke liye kisiki jarurat nahi padti. Bas man mein hota hai. Ab unse pyaar hai hume toh hai even if he doesn't reciprocate my feelings back, I will still be devoted to him."

(And this is the specialty of one-sided love, it doesn't depend on anyone, it's always in our mind. Now, if i love him, i just do.)

Mehek explained her feelings while a small smile spread on her lips. She is always like this. Never wording out her feelings to anyone but when she does, it's always so deep. Jhanvi smiled and side-hugged her bestie who is deeply in love with her brother.

“Don't worry you’ll soon become my bhabhi too. Bhai won't be able to resist this goddess for much time now. I promise that I will do everything possible,” Jhanvi said, making mehek laugh at her words while she too wrapped her arms around her shoulders.

Mehek’s phone dings with a notification as she takes her phone and reads it which makes her eyes go wide. 2 minutes left, officer Mehek. It was Adhyansh's text. “Oh shit, I have to go or else he will dig me alive.” She said while panicking and standing up after breaking the hug. Jhanvi laughed at her and shook her head. “Bye bye jhan and think about it wisely before taking any decision, okay?” Mehek said while pecking Jhanvi’s forehead Jhanvi pouted and nodded.

“Bye meh! I will miss you!” Jhanvi said, making mehek smile and she finally left. Jhanvi just sat there, watched mehek leave, and sighed deeply once she left. “Now what do I do with my matter?” she mumbles to herself while sighing.

The day has been very hectic for me today. The deals to confirm and the meeting with the collaborators has drained the shit out of me. Throwing myself back on the chair I closed my eyes for a bit to relax my overworking orbs. As I closed my eyes, her face flashed in front of me which made me smile.

My little deer bunny. Even a mere thought of hers makes me so happy so what will happen when she is there with me 24/7? We’ll be staying under the same rooftop after our alliance. We will be sleeping in the same bed. A wide smile spread on my lips as I thought about it. Damn, finally I’ll be able to claim her mine and I’ll fucking do everything for her. Just to see that bunny smile of hers. I’ll do every bare minimum effort.

My little bun will be mine. Soon. very soon.

As I was busy in her thoughts, a ding on my phone caught my attention, making me open my eyes. I sighed and mentally cursed the person who disturbed my daydream. Oh, it's almost 6 pm, so I should say evening-dream, no?

Yuvraaj singh Oberoi, you are crazy!

My inner self scolded me for behaving like her which has got me this habit of thinking like her. Illogically. Shaking my head at myself I finally picked up my phone and immediately took my curse back which I gave to the person who texted me. Fuck you Yuvraj, you could have just checked first before cursing.

My eyes widened as jumped from my chair while a wide smile made its place on my lips as i read the name of the sender. My heart did a little dance but clearing my throat, i composed myself and again with a straight face, i sat on the chair while my eyes fixed on the notification.

It was bun's text. I smiled to myself and excitedly opened her text which read,

Meet me at the Sunshine cafe near my company in 10.

Meet?

I was shocked to read the text. It's very rare for her to text me and that too for meeting her. Damn, I am kinda too lucky since tomorrow, ain't I? “Right away, my lady.” I mumbled to myself, replied to her ‘ok’ and stood up from my place. Gotta reach there before she does.

Grabbing my coat, I made my way out of the cabin as my secretary approached me. “Sir are you leaving for somewhere?” he asks, making me nod. I never looked at him and kept walking while the employees bowed at me to which I just nodded my head. “But sir you have a meeting with the Italian investors in 5.” he reminds me of the meeting to which I just rolled my eyes.

Nothing else is important to me other than her in this world. “Cancel it,” I commanded him. “Sir, they are arriving from Italy itself. If I cancel the meeting at the end moment then, they might cancel the deal,” he says, emphasizing to me how important this deal is. But did I care? Hell no.

No one else is important to me right now other than my bun and so I don't care if they refuse to make the deal. “I don't like repeating my words, Vik,” I said while moving towards the elevator now. Advik, my and Adhyansh’s best friends, since our college days, was also my secretary.

As I entered the elevator and faced him, he rolled his eyes at me. “Haramzaade, humesha bhaag jata hai and then i have to face the embarrassment.” he exclaims while huffing and rolling his eyes at me.

[Bastard, you always runs away.]

This fucker needs to stop doing this. I just shrugged my shoulders off at him and the doors of the elevator closed.

Why is she calling me to meet her though?

A sudden question rang inside my head, making me think for a while.

eh, definitely to reject you, Raj.

My mind said, making my eyes go wide.

Of course not, how can someone reject Yuvraj Singh Oberoi’s charms?

My heart justified making me nod and smirk.

Duh, jhanvi roy kapoor can.

My mind answered, making me nod at it too. She is the jhanvi Roy Kapoor, she can do any impossible thing in this fucking world. What if she wants to humiliate me in front of strangers and not our family?

“Ughh!! What does she want from me?”

I was busy fighting against my mind and didn't realize that the doors of the elevators were wide open on the ground floor. The employees standing in front of me gave me an awkward look. They heard what I whined about. Oh fuck. “Unhear what you heard.’ saying this I made my way out of the elevator and cleared my throat.

“We had to hear something, boss?” one of the employees said, making me nod negatively at him. “No, you may leave,” I said and moved my legs toward the exit area where the driver had parked my car. I took the keys from him as he bowed at me. “You may leave early Mr. Sharma. I will go home by myself, thank you,” I said to which he nodded and left from there. The same goes for me, too drove off to the cafe near her company which was 20-25 mins away from mine.

And, the harsh driver I am, reached the place in exactly 10. Parking the car made my way inside the place and roamed my eyes all over the place. She wasn't here yet. As always she is going to be late. I shook my head and went to sit on a vacant seat for two.

Placing myself on the place I eyed my wristwatch, it was 6:15 right now. Tapping my feet on the ground I scrolled through my Instagram for a while. Yes, I am on social media because of my little brother who forced me to join this app. I rarely post anything on it so my account didn't have many posts. Just 3-4 posts, that's it.

Should I post something? Maybe I can just pass my time while she arrives here. Opening my camera, I clicked a selfie of mine and a little side view of the cafe and posted it right away. Added a simple caption and I was done.

“Ahem ahem!” her voice hit my ears as I raised my head only to see her sitting in front of me. “Oh, you are here?” I said and received a nod from her. “Since the time you were busy posting yourself on Instagram,” she said while rolling her eyes. A sudden wave of embarrassment rushed my veins as I scratched the back of my neck.

“Oh, I was just, you know-” I was cut off by the lady Victoria sitting in front of me, “Never mind. I wanted to talk to you about something important.” the seriousness in her voice told the same as her words to which I nodded.

“Okay. but let’s order something first,” I said to which she nodded and rested her hands on the table while her chin rested on them. I waved at the waiter who came towards us and I ordered for both of us.

“One black coffee with no sugar and one cappuccino.” black coffee for me and cappuccino for her, yeah, I know what she prefers because every single time she would come with me ansh to any cafe, she would order that. She looked at me shocked while I just smirked and shrugged off my shoulders.

“You are seriously so boring for a person, like who drinks black coffee that too without sugar, all day?”

She rolls her eyes at me. Again. I will fucking make her roll them once under me, I swear to god.

“I do and who drinks a cappuccino every single time they visit a cafe?”

I said with the same tone as her and she again rolled her eyes at me. AGAIN!

“Stop!” I exclaimed.

"what?” 

“Stop with that roll of your eyes or else….”

“Or else what?” and again. She did that again.

“Stop or else, I’ll fucking make you beg to do that once I get you under me.
