Coincidence Or Destiny?

I walked out of airport and took a cab.

The hotel wasn't that far from the airport, it took me 20 minutes to reach there.

As soon as I got off from cab I received call from, Mrs. Ravina the in-charge of our training and my best friend's mother.

"Hello? Tara??" I heard her

"Yes, ma'am" I replied.

"Did you reach the hotel?" She asked.

"Yes, I'm standing right outside the main entrance." I answered her question.

"Good. I actually wanted you to know that your room is a floor beneath than the other trainees. Due to odd trainees number we couldn't fit in 2 floor, leading one trainee to move a floor down. I allotted that room to you since you're the most responsible out of the crowd. I hope you can understand, Tara." she explained

"Oh, it's totally fine! I don't mind being on a different floor as long as I can have a peaceful time for reading." I assured her.

"Thank you, Tara. I'll meet you tomorrow. Have a good rest!"

She hung up.

Okay...so... I'm on a different floor... Cool!

I quickly entered the Red Rose hotel and moved towards the reception.

Taking my room keys, I walked towards the lift.

After reaching the 2nd floor, I began searching my room.

My room was second last room from the hallway.

After entering it, I tossed my handbag on the bed and first rushed to see the balcony view. As expected it was beautiful.

"Nice view! But I know something more nice.... A hot shower!" with that I moved towards the bed where my luggage was resting.

Taking my outfit of the day, I walked in the bathroom for a nice and long shower.

After bath, I jot down to place my unpacked things at their respective places. After all I had to spend my next 3 months here for training.

I completed my work, and now it was time for reading!!

I threw myself on my soft comfy bed, a perfect spot to read my favorite romance book, "Her second Love".

"Okay... So where was I..." My eyes scanned through the book for my bookmark had failed to do its job.

"There!" I spotted the paragraph where I had last read.

I was about to start reading again, but a medium loud music interrupted me.

It wasn't that bad, but I need a peaceful place for reading.

I respectfully waited to see if the person himself lowers the volume, but it seemed he has no intention of doing so...

"Okay… I had enough! I can't wait forever, I need to put some manners in that person's head." I tossed my book on the bed and stormed off towards the door.

As I unlocked the door, the music became clearer. The beats were bang on, but I wasn't really in a mood of dancing. All I wanted was to see Ayesha and Arun together, the main leads of the novel I was reading.

I walked to the next and the last door of the hallway, I did not hesitate to give it a good knock.

*knock* *knock*

No response.

"Hello?! Excuse me, can you open the door?" I said out loud with repetitive knocks.

Still no response.

"What the hell! Is this person deaf or something???" I raised my hand to knock one last time before deciding to complain at reception.

But something unexpected happened, really unexpected...

I did raise my hand to knock on the door, but it instead landed on something soft yet firm.

It was bare chest...

SOMEONE'S BARE CHEST?!!

I quickly retracted my hand and raised my head for apology.

Just as my eyes meet with that person my cheeks burned awfully as recognized him.

My legs went numb as he stared right through my soul with a small smile....

I was about lose my balance, but he caught me in right time.

"Watch yourself, Captain!" his voice dipped in the world's sweetest molten chocolate entered my ears.

It'll be a lie if I said I wasn't on the 9th cloud.

After all, it was The Darsh in fr-

"Hello? Captain? Are you listening to me??" his sweet voice re-entered my ears but this time it brought me back to present.

"Huh? Ah.... I'M SORRY!!!!" I quickly made a distance between us.

"Huh? Why are you sorry? I should be the one apologizing you, captain." he said with sad eyes.

"Uh..." it was all that left my mouth not knowing why he was apologizing.

"You see, I embarrassed you by opening the door in this... condition..." his cheeks where tinted in little pink color, he was blushing???

That was when my eyes left his face examined his body...

He was in shorts and was shirtless...

SHIRTLESS???

I quickly turned away.

"I'll quickly wear something"

"yes please" I said trying not to sound too excited.

As I heard the door close behind my back, I finally let go of my chest which I unknowingly held on.

As I processed things that just happened a sharp thought more like novel trope crossed my mind.

My crush next door????????????
