Someone Else

BETWEEN THEM
Part 31

It was a view that was so heady that took his breath away....

He now understood why so many people woke up early in the morning just to have a cup of tea with the morning sky, the morning sun, the morning haze and the chirp of those lovely sounding birds......

If only he had that special someone with him to spend the moment.....

He promised himself.... Someday, surely.....


He was calling out to him.... Now, it was as natural of Aakash to disturb him right when he needed to be left alone as it was for every dawn to dawn.....

What was it now...!

"Hey Krish.... I think you must be free this evening...."

"Not really...."

Aakash continued as if what Krish said wasn't audible.... "Aarthi's sister Preetha is coming over today.... from Chennai.... I told you yesterday remember?"

"No..."

"And well I think it would be the right thing if you pick her up.... 6 pm... Kingfisher....."

"Right thing?... that would be Aarthy doing it... not me..... "

"Doesn't hurt if you do right?... Besides, Preetha is real pretty..." Aakash winked and left with the same suddenness as he had come....

Krish stood confused....

And with no way out of this he swore under his breath.... He wasn't very familiar with her...

It did not matter... He was just going to play chafferer.....

Which their driver could have well done.....

And it all confused him......
