Love Spring
weekend
On a bright sunny Friday morning
While entering her office
She was very happy since the weekend is near
Abby
in the elevator
*thinking happily in my mind*
wow wow wow, today is the last day of work, yay, then I'll go in hibernation for 2 days
Abby reached her desk and suddenly
Tina
Abby, good morning
*cheerfully*
Abby
*matching the cheerfulness*
a very good morning to you too, Tina
Tina
So what's your plan for tonight?
Abby
Like seriously, you just got to your "office" and all you wanna talk about is weekend plans?
*rolling my eyes*
Tina
oh, come on girl, don't tell me your plan is to spend your weekend sleeping all day and night long like a sloth, AGAIN
*giving me an 'ew' face*
Abby
yeah, that's the best therapy in the world… Just me and my bed and my pillows and...
Tina
ya, ya, enough, I know it all… You and your stupid weekend plan
Abby
hey, don't call it "stupid", you'll never know the real fun of slow living and sleeping without any alarm
Tina
oh really, and you'll never understand the fun of ACTUALLY going out and meeting new people, just so that you can get yourself a life, you old woman
Abby
what? Old woman? Who? I don't see anyone tho
Tina
its you dumb
*rolling her eyes, she got back to her work*
Abby
*got back to my work without replying*
Abby: A smart, independent 27 yr old woman working under one of the biggest Fashion Labels in India as a Marketing Manager.
Although she is sweet and kindhearted, but she is pretty savage and nobody really ever tries to mess with her.
Working under a fashion label, her style is very elegant and sophisticated.
She has been single for quite few years and doesn't seem to have any plan to date anyways.
Her hobbies are sleeping and cooking delicious food for herself. She lives alone in Mumbai.
Abby
to Tina
hey, don't you wanna have your lunch?
Abby
*after thinking for a while*
okay fine... I'll be spending this weekend just as you like, happy now?
Tina
*looking at Abby with happy puppy eyes*
promise?
Abby
ya, promise, now can we please go and eat something, i am damn hungry
Abby
to Tina
I'm done with all of my work, what about you?
Tina
I'm almost done, just give me 10 mins
Tina
to Abby
ya, lets go.. I'm done
both walking peacefully towards the bus stop, and Abby spoke to break the silence
Abby
so, tomorrow night, where will you be taking me? what's the plan?
*i asked her giving her a mischievous smirk*
Tina
it's a secret, just get ready in a party outfit tomorrow night at 7 pm. I'll come and pick you up.
Tina
Oh, look there, your bus is here
Abby
ya, bye-bye, see ya tomorrow
Tina
bye-bye
*waving her right hand at you*
Tina came to pick Abby at 07:10 pm in a cab
After settling in the cab
Abby
so where are we heading to?
Tina
i told you it's a secret
Abby
oh come on, what's wrong in saying the name of the place!
Tina
oh forget it
btw you looking damn hot huh *smirking*
Abby
ya but less than you girl, you look like a pro party person
after sitting quietly for a while, finally Tina spoke
Tina
lemme tell you a secret about this party
Abby
what is it? *curious*
Tina
you know, all the rich people's sons and daughters go there
Abby
hahaha, *laughing hilariously*
Abby
So why are we going there?
Tina
its just a club, anyone can go there
Tina
This is my first time going there.
We might come across our future partners there.
Abby
ya ya
out of nowhere in the world, we will come across our future partners there in the damn club
we reached a club called "Persona"
Abby
this place looks kinda cool, nice choice bruh
Tina
ofc, just look at who chose it
after reaching there, Tina went to the dance floor leaving Abby behind alone
Abby
*in mind*
oh this girl is crazy, she called me and left me here alone.. bish
Abby
lets just go and grab some drinks *talking to myself*
Abby
please give me a glass of martini
suddenly a guy approached her
?
to Abby
non-alcoholic drink, *giving a smirk*, interesting huhh
Abby
and who are you Mister?
Agastya
*suddenly all cheerful*
hii, i am Agastya Kapoor and you? pretty lady
the bartender have her the drink
Abby
*took the drink and swiftly turning towards him*
Abby
*taking a pause and letting a small laugh out*
Abby
very nice to meet you
Agastya
ya, it'll be even nicer if you could tell me your name Miss
Abby
well, it isn't that easy to get to know my name *acting all sassy*
Agastya
well then i am willing to wait
*acting all charming*
Abby
*in mind* he's so adorably handsome
Agastya
you might not know Miss, I'm a very patient guy
Abby
*snapping you outta your thoughts*
Abby
g-go-good for you *nodding your head while taking a sip of your martini*
Agastya
*trying his best to continue the conversation*
so you're here for the first time?
Abby
yes, for the very first time
Agastya
and what got you here? a heartbreak?
Abby
no, my friend brought me here
Agastya
but i see no friends?
Abby
it's a "friend" and she is there, on the dancing floor
Agastya
why didn't you join her?
Abby
oh.. I'm not a party person
Agastya
well, same, me neither
Abby
wow seriously, you look like a regular here
Agastya
do i? *giving the cutest smile at her*
Abby
ughh you do!
*trying hard not to blush*
Agastya
by now, i know you are not an easy person to know, you're not a party person, you're here with a friend and you don't drink alcohol unless one thing?
Abby
and what is that? Mr. Kapoor
Agastya
it's your name Miss? can i know it now? come on, i deserve it
Abby
*intentionally trying to change the topic*
how about we get out of this place and go to a quiet place?
suddenly Tina came running and hugged Abby
Tina
What are you doing Abby baby?
*she ain't drunk but she is just crazy like that*
Tina notices Agastya and she knows how Abby barely talks to anyone
Abby
He's a new friend, He's Agastya and She is Tina *showing each other*
Abby
*he caught you off gaurd since now he knows your name*
Agastya
to Tina
well, it's a pleasure meeting you, Tina, you have a very good friend
Tina
Of course, I do
(to Abby) you guys shall enjoy, I'll take my leave *giving Abby a smirk and a wink*
Abby
*stopping Tina*
wait, i don't wanna stay here anymore, i'm getting headaches, please spare me this time, i wanna go back home
Tina
fine, take your leave, see you on monday, bye bye love *giving another mischievous grin*
Abby
bye then, take care of yourself and get back home safely. call me whenever you get home you idiot
*sincerely concerned*
Tina happily went back to the dance floor
after she left, Agastya was patiently standing there waiting for Abby to finish her conversation
Abby
*looking here and there*
Agastya
*clearing his throat*
so how about Juhu beach? shall we?
Abby
great but some other day, I'm not feeling well
Agastya
oh that's sad and i think i need to work even harder to get your phone number Miss Abby *emphasising on your name since he knows it now*
Abby
*your head was aching from the loud noises and the bright neon lights and you didn't want to play with words anymore so you clearly answered him this time*
Abby
oh i was just playing around with words, Agastya, Here's my card, call me whenever you want
Agastya
so you can talk straight also? wow, what a surprise! *shocked and relieved*
Abby
*you gave him a smirk*
I'll be waiting for your call
Abby said that and left the place
Agastya
*after hearing that, he felt like the happiest man on earth and he was himself wondering what is wrong with him*
maybe because he has never met a simple yet complicated woman like her
Agastya: He is a 30 yr old man, the president of Kapoor Industries, one of the top 3 leading companies in India.
He is a happy-go-lucky guy and inspite of being all rich & handsome, he is still very down to earth and kind.
He is a known as charming flirt but doesn't easily get close to anyone. The ones who caught his attention must be really special and unique.
he is a well known celebrity in the country but Abby failed to notice him since she barely knows her neighbors. All she knows is her work, sleep and food. She is a damn robot
Abby
*you got back to her home sweet home, freshened up and immediately fell asleep.*
Abby
*But while cleaning up, not gonna lie, Agastya did cross your mind a couple of times*
Agastya
*He also got back home and didn't even bother to freshen up. he went straight to his bed but he couldn't fall asleep at all. everytime he closed his eyes, he could see you smiling at him.
He was tossing in his bed for almost an hour then he got up, drank some water and finally fell asleep*
sunday
another bright sunny day, ofc.. since it's summer season
Abby
*you woke up around 08:00 am and while doing your daily house chores, you were lowkey waiting for his call.. on second thought, you wondered whether he is like any other guy who just wants to get physical with you or not and then you just stopped thinking about him*
well Tina did call her at around 3 am and told her
Tina
Abby darling I'm back home, good night
Abby
*half asleep*
okay, I'm relieved, goodnight
Agastya
*he woke up around 12:00 pm and as soon as he opened his eyes, all his mind could think of is YOU. He quickly searched his phone and that card and gave you a call*
Abby
*on call*
Hello? who?
Agastya
so tell me, were you actually waiting for my call?
Abby
*in mind* so he really called
Abby
*again in mind* my name sounds so different in his voice, its so pleasant
Agastya
Abby? Hello there?
Abby
*snapping outta your thoughts*
ohh hii Agastya
*trying to sound normal*
Agastya
ohh you remembered my name, today is the best day of my life
Abby
ohh stop making a fuss about it
after a small silence, he spoke
Agastya
what are you doing?
Abby
just doing some house chores, what about you?
Agastya
i just woke up and thought about you
Abby
do you flirt with every girl you meet in the club?
Agastya
oh no no, not at all, you're the first one
Abby
and you want me to believe that?
Agastya
believe it or not, i think you don't know me yet
Abby
ohh i know you, you're Agastya Kapoor
Agastya
no, not that, I'm the heir of Kapoor Industries. Haven't you ever heard about me?
*saying all smart and proud*
Agastya
are you free today? how about we go on a date?
Abby
woah.. you are going way too fast, lemme tell you, I'm not interested in dating honestly
Agastya
*in mind* what kinda woman is she! she doesn't know ME, doesn't wanna go on a date with ME either, like what the hell man *feeling defeated*
Abby
I can go but --
*taking cautious steps*
Abby
Let's just be friends first
Agastya
oh sure, I would love to
*internally happy*
Abby
fine, lets meet in Juhu beach
Agastya
okay done, lets meet at 05:00 pm and we can watch the sunset together there
Abby
alright.. see you there
Agastya
if you want, i can come and pick you up from your house
Agastya
okay bye then *feeling shy & blushing*
in Juhu beach at 05:15 pm, Agastya has been waiting for her for the past ½ an hour since he didn't wanna dissapoint Abby on their first date.. he waited patiently in a secluded area since few people might recognize him
Abby
hiii Agastya *waving and running towards him*
Agastya
*smiling charmingly at you*
Abby
*panting heavily after a short run*
Ughh I'm so unhealthy and dang his damn smile.. so cute *thinking in mind*
Agastya
you are looking beautiful like always
*complimenting you like a gentleman*
Abby
*ignoring it*
did you wait for long?
Agastya
no i just got here a few minutes ago
*liar liar pants on fire*
Abby
ohhkay, let's have vada-pav or wait...
Abby
Don't tell me you don't eat street foods, it's fine if you don't, I'll enjoy it all by myself
Agastya
ohh miss, give it a break, i do enjoy eating vada-pav from the streets.. let me take you to my favorite vada-pav stall
Abby
ohhh really? let's go then!
after taking the vada-pav, like a gentleman he is, he paid for it obviously
you both sat on a rock to enjoy the sunset
Abby
*after taking a big bite, with food in mouth*
it-s de-li-ci-ous
*smiling happily*
Agastya
*seeing you smile, he smiled sweetly at you*
you both chatted a lot about this-that which clearly showed how much of good friends they have become just in one date
Agastya thought you were all smart and elegant, but later he discovered that you can be goofy and funny as well when you get comfortable
You thought he was like every other playboy in the club but no, he was different and nice, really nice. You also discovered how genuine he is in spite of coming from a high society family
around 8 pm still in Juhu beach... while walking by the beach
Abby
honestly, i didn't expect I'll enjoy this date so much
Agastya
you should thank me then *very proud*
Abby
ya seriously, thank you very much..
*sincerely*
Abby
*in my mind*
after a long time i laughed so much with a "friend"
# since Abby has been living here in Mumbai alone for the past 2 years, she could barely ever make good friends because of her introverted nature. She occasionally visited her parents in her hometown but she had spent most of her time alone, so basically after a long time, she actually enjoyed a human company
Agastya
ohh just a "thank you" won't do
Abby
*acting to think* then what can i give you in return?
Agastya
how about dinner together?
Abby
you won't believe me i was thin----
Agastya
*on call*
hello, ssup?
Agastya
*suddenly hyped*
ohh really? it's today?
Agastya
alright I'll be there soon
*he cut the call*
Abby
*curious to know what happened*
what's going on? Everything's fine?
Agastya
damn i totally forgot today is my best friend's birthday, his sister just called me up
Abby
ohh that's great, then go faster before it gets too late
Agastya
ya, *after a pause*
why don't you join us?
Abby
*awkwardly smiling*
huh? how can i? I don't even know them
Abby
Come on, i barely know you
Agastya
no no, i insist, i neither wanna miss the chance of having dinner with you nor i wanna miss my friend's birthday
*whining like a 5 yr old kid*
Agastya
come on, come on, you have to go with me
Abby
*after thinking for a while you agreed since you couldn't handle his cuteness overload*
okay fine, let's go!!
Agastya
really? i love you *suddenly he pulled you in his happy embrace*
Abby
*you are utterly shocked with eyes bulging out*
Agastya
*realised what he did and said*
Agastya
*clearing his throat* ugh i meant i love you like a friend you know, and sorry for that, i just got excited for a moment
Abby
*after processing everything*
let's just get going
arrived at the birthday party
Abby
*i though it'll be a lavish party with crazy music and lights like the clubs but to my surprise it is a quiet, intimate party with very few "close" people of that birthday guy i believe*
Agastya
*he took your hand and introduced you to everyone as his new friend*
Abby
Hello everyone *you said sweetly and politely*
suddenly a girl came and started scolding Agastya
Agastya
*he introduced her to you*
Abby, meet her, Amaya, she is my childhood buddy, although Aaryan is my best friend but she is no less than that either
Abby
Nice to meet you, Amaya. I'm Abby *reached out my hand for a handshake*
Amaya
*she politely shook hands with you*
Nice to meet you too, since you're his guest, now you're my guest too
Abby
that's so sweet of you, well whose birthday is this? i want to give him this bouquet and wish him after all I'm an unwanted guest here
*smiling politely*
Agastya
oh don't say like that
Amaya
*repeating him* ya don't say like that and Aaryan is coming down soon
Abby
alright
*forcing a polite smile*
# Abby is an intuitive woman, she could somehow sense without any specific reason that Amaya likes Agastya and that too probably since a long time but she shrugged it off like whatever
Agastya
ohh look, there he comes, our sweet birthday boy
Abby
this guy is also quite handsome? *thinking in mind*
Agastya
*ran towards him to hug him* Happy Birthday buddy
Aaryan
Thanks man!
*said in a calm and chill tone*
Abby
*you went towards him to wish him giving him the bouquet of flowers*
Happy Birthday!
Aaryan
Who are you?
*said sternly looking straight into your eyes*
Abby
*you were about to say but---*
Agastya
She is my new friend, hey name is Abby and Abby, this is Aaryan Malhotra, my best friend.
*looking at me with a smile on his face*
# meanwhile, Aaryan is still looking at you as if he is scanning you with his eyes
Aaryan
*after the introduction, he just walked past you as if he didn't see or hear anything*
Abby
*you stood there like a dumb, he didn't even care to take the flowers and your smile faded away*
Abby
*you slowly looked at Agastya*
Agastya
*he noticed this and took the bouquet from your hands*
Let me take this
Abby
*you felt this behaviour utterly disrespectful so you decided to leave*
does such arrogant people really exist? huhh birthday, my foot
*in mind*
you were walking out of the place when Agastya called your name
Abby
*you stopped and turned towards him*
Agastya
to Abby
where are you going?
*nervous since he invited her*
Abby
I got some work that i need to complete, I'll better leave now
Agastya
*he felt hella embarrassed by his friend's behaviour and didn't stop you anymore*
Let me drop you back home then?
Abby
*you sounded really pissed with a poker face*
no need, enjoy your PARTY
see you some other day, bye
Agastya
*it's just been a few days since he met you, he really didn't wish to ruin this new bond over something stupid like this, he was very scared of your reactions*
okay, take care.. call me when you get home
*said worriedly*
Abby
*you didn't even bother to look back at him and simply walked out of that place*
right then Agastya was just about to go after you since you looked really pissed but Amaya stopped him
Amaya
where are you going? and where did she go? your new friend
Agastya
ah she got some urgent work to do so she left
Amaya
whatever, you come with me to set the candles, we do this every year, by now it won't be wrong to call it a ritual for Aaryan's birthday!!
*all happy and bubbly as always*
Agastya
*he smiled at Aahana and couldn't help but go with her*
Aaryan
*he noticed Abby leaving his house, actually he has noticed each and every movement of yours.
He was curious about "who you are" since Agastya does not easily bring any of his "new" friend suddenly out of nowhere. And this time that too directly to his own birthday party
When he saw you leave, he badly wanted to ask y'all, what happened but he couldn't care less and just shrugged it off*
then Amaya called all the few guests to gather up
Amaya
Guys let's cut the cake *very excited*
they cut the cake and all
Aaryan: He is the son of one of the country's top 3 richest people. He didn't take up his family business rather started his own Fashion brand which focuses on Male Fashion since men usually have less options when it comes to fashion as compared to women. He wanted to change the notion.
He might look a little intimidating but he is just impolite but also very kind.
Since childhood, he has always been a responsible child and took great care of his sister when their parents went out for work. Yes, both of their parents are working professionals. So, apparently he loves his sister the most and can do everything to see her happy. Her happiness is his life mission since he barely ever thought about himself over the years
Abby
such an arrogant ass, what kind of behaviour was that? like high society couldn't teach him manners, such a weird man, i never wanna see him again
*talking furiously to yourself*
Abby called a cab and went home
at home, in your living room
Abby
ohhh gosh.. i still can't forget what just happened, what does he think of himself? who is he? disgusting.. ugghhh I'll not think about it anymore, screw him
*still talking to yourself - you couldn't believe his actions, like what's wrong with him*
after freshening up, you were reading a book in your couch before going to bed and suddenly your phone rang
Abby
*you saw the caller id, it said "Agastya"*
patience
Abby
*you didn't pick up the call ofc, you put your phone on silent mode and went to sleep*
Agastya
*he kept on calling you a couple of times, then gave up thinking you must have fallen asleep*
Abby
*you woke up, checked your phone only to find out 11 missed calls from Agastya and you just ignored it all. then, you got ready for your job*
Abby
*you had breakfast, bought yourself a glass of Americano and went to your office*
the day went by as usual, nothing different happened
Agastya
*he was frustrated to find out how you ignored all his calls and messages. He didn't want things to end up like this between the two of you, that too, this soon.
He was getting greatly impatient and couldn't concentrate in his work at all*
Agastya
*thinking in his mind* how about i go to her office?
Agastya
*basically talking to himself*
no, she will hate it even more, maybe i should just wait for her to return..... ya.... i should give her some time to calm down.. okay!!
days passed into a week, but Abby didn't seem to contact him at all
Agastya
*by now, he has lost all his limits of patience, he couldn't take it anymore, he thought of going to your office and pulled out his car*
Abby
*thinking in mind during your coffee break*
it's been a whole damn week, he didn't even bother to text or call me.. maybe i was wrong, he is just like any other guy... whatever, he has that Amaya anyway, she is a nice girl though, very sweet and elegant
after work, going out of the office
Abby
*you saw Agastya's car and got surprised in a happy way ofc*
Agastya
*he saw you and almost jumped out of his car, stumbled down and stood in front of you giving that cute smile*
Abby
*thinking in mind* how foolish! *trying hard not to blush*
you were looking at him when he spoke
Agastya
Get in the car and i really need to talk to you
*said really sadly*
Abby
*you were about to say NO but*
Agastya
*he looked too embarrassed and ashamed to even look into your eyes and said*
PLEASE
Abby
*you agreed immediately since you felt bad seeing him sad*
Agastya
*he got happy in a second*
come with me
he held the door for Abby like a gentleman he is
Agastya
so, where do we go now? any cafe suggestions?
Abby
let's go to the nearby Starbucks
Agastya
Okayyy
*started the engine enthusiastically*
in Starbucks, Abby ordered a Matcha Latte and Agastya ordered a Americano
Abby
ya, tell me, what did you "really" need to talk about with me?
*curious about what's he about to say*
Agastya
Abby, I'm sorry
*looking down athough he actually didn't do anything*
Abby
*got slightly emotional since she didn't expect him to apologize like this, you probably thought he would justify his friend's behaviour but he didn't*
Agastya
*he continued saying*
I shouldn't have asked you to come with me there, it's completely my fault. I got so excited to spend more time with you that i forgot about Aaryan's nature*
Abby
*holding his hands on the table*
don't say sorry please, it's not your fault, its just that the guy was being very rude and mean and disrespectful
Agastya
*still looking down*
Abby
if someone must apologize, he should be the one, please don't blame yourself like this, look up Agastya
Agastya
*he looked up at you with sad embarrassed eyes*
Abby
*you simply gave him an eye smile*
Agastya
i know, it's just been a few days but you don't know, how precious you've become to me, Abby
Abby
what are you saying? don't be like this
Agastya
i really dont wanna lose you
Abby
oh my goodness, please calm down Agastya.. we are definitely friends
Agastya
*he held your hand back while giving a soft smile*
Abby
Well, would you like to have dinner at my apartment?
*you said this just to make him happy*
Agastya
*his mood really got better*
really?
you took your orders as takeaways and went to the car
y'all reached your apartment safely and you were listening to music all the way and you both got similar music taste
Agastya
oh my god, you got such a beautiful home
Abby
*smiling softly*
you liked it so much? for real?
Agastya
yes absolutely... it looks so warm and cozy.. it totally feels like home
Abby
hehe, I'll take it as a compliment
Agastya
huhh.. really? it's indeed a compliment
Abby
ya whatever, you sit here, I'll prepare the dinner
Agastya
shall i help you?
*proud and blushing* ahem, you may not know but I'm a good cook
Abby
just rest for a while, it won't take much time
Agastya
okay, since you say so!
*he started watching TV*
within an hour, you somehow managed to prepare rajma chawal, salad and lassi as a dessert
Agastya
oh yeah, the time i have been waiting for
Abby
*you served him a plate*
Agastya
*he ate and paused for a while*
Abby
*you waited for his reviews as if your life depends on it*
Agastya
*he looked at you*
Abby
how is it? *hella nervous*
tell me, tell me
*getting impatient*
Agastya
its so good... i have never really had such a dish
Abby
you never had Rajma chawal?
Agastya
no, not that, it has different flavors
Abby
ohhh.. so its edible right?
Agastya
edible? it's amazing, i already told you
Abby
well, i am really sorry, i should have given you a better treat, in last moment, i just had this since today i had planned to eat this
Agastya
ohh my goodness, dont be sorry at all
Agastya
i loved it, truly, very much.. home cooked meals are the best
Agastya
now, you come on and take a seat, I'll serve you
Abby
*smiling, just happy to see how simple and kind and sweet person he is*
okay

Abby
ohh, it's 9 pm already, you should go back now
Agastya

Abby
