Chapter 6

Damini's POV

The plane landed and I came out of the airport as fast as I could. I was feeling nostalgic being here in India. I came back here after 10 long years...

My dad sent me somewhere far away due to some problems and I completed my studies there and then my parents also shifted there once my dad took VRS ( early voluntary retirement) and then I didn't feel like coming to India so I went to Dubai. I worked there and now I was a well-known architect. I designed many famous buildings there.

Mr Aniruddh Mathur, my dad's best friend has always been in touch with us.... . He always treated me as his own daughter, he supported me a lot and made many arrangements for me to complete my education and living and surviving in the USA.

He was a big businessman. My dad told me that my uncle's son is a lawyer but also wants to start a new construction company with his friends. As uncle and his son had no experience of the field so he wanted me to come to India and be a part of it. He is just like my godfather, has done so much for me and my parents that I could not deny him. So here I am, back to India.

I had another flight from Delhi to Chandigarh in half an hour, so I went to a cafe at the domestic airport and started sipping it. I saw a family sitting on the next table having coffee. There was a double stroller with two cute similar-looking kids were sitting.

Twins !!! I always had some kind of fascination towards them. I was always curious about them. I even used to think that what if I had a twin sister ?? I used to love finding the difference between the two twins.

I was thinking about all that and didn't even know when my thoughts took me 11 years back when I had just taken admission in a school in Delhi.......

Flashback

I realised one day in the first week of my school that a guy whose name was Sagar was staring and smiling at me all the time.

But somehow I could find him everywhere. I felt that he was at two places at the same time.

I was so confused about it so I asked my friend Anshu about it, but all the other girls who were sitting with us having lunch with us, started laughing and making fun of me saying that maybe I have developed a crush on him that's why I am seeing him everywhere.

Well, that was funny... but I could see him everywhere. Just one second back he was in the playground then just the very next second I saw him in class and then again I looked and found him standing in the playground and when I looked in the class he was there.

It didn't even come to my mind that could be two people I just thought that I was thinking too much about him because he was giving me too much attention and was always smiling at me. I was confused about it and all the girls kept teasing me.

Then after two days, I got to know that, there were two boys. That Sagar had a twin named Sahil... The teacher was talking to him and asked him who he was - Sagar or Sahil. He said that he was Sahil so he called for Sagar too. Both the guys were standing side by side near the teacher.

Now everything was clear to me I was irritated with the girls for teasing me but at the same time, it was funny too.

They were standing there right in front of me talking to the teacher and my favourite timepass compelled me to find a difference between them also even after looking at them for 2 minutes I could not find any difference except for the hairstyle. One of them had his hair with a left side parting while another one had almost no parting. His hair was a bit untamed.

Other than that they were absolutely identical as if standing in front of a mirror amazing they had the same height, same weight, same colour of the skin and hair they were just like a mirror image of each other

One thing was for sure, both of them were very very very handsome. Tall, fair and handsome. It was not fair for a guy to look so handsome...

I was still looking at them engrossed in finding the difference between them that I didn't even realise that I was staring at them. One of those guys looked and me and winked. That startled me and I looked away from him. When I looked at him again He was still smiling and smirking at me.

Stupid guy... He went to his desk and seated himself still looking at me. His friend whispered something to him and he grinned and again winked at me.

Present time.

The announcement was made for my flight to Chandigarh so I boarded the plane. I settled in my place but again that family with twins were sitting next to me.

I started playing with them. They were also identical and were wearing the same sets of clothes... I asked the mom of those kids that how can she tell them apart?

She smiled and said that you get to know if you live with them. I was fascinated with them.

They reminded me of him again. I tried to get that thought away from my mind but they crept in.

Flashback

He used to follow me like a shadow...

One day when he was following me everywhere, I got irritated and as I was way taller than all the girls. I tried to use that to get rid of him, as I used to think that I was unusually tall because I was 5' 8" and I thought I was as tall as him.

Anshu and I stopped and I said to her, " Anshu Do you know my height is 5' 8". And my mom is a bit worried that If I gain more height then it would be very difficult to find a taller groom for me. " I said laughing at that...

" Strange... My mom wants that I gain some height. I am just 5' 1" tall. My brother is 5' 10". He keeps teasing me... "

" My mom teases me that I will be 5'10" tall. And she would have to find a guy who is taller than 6 feet. " I said that because I wanted him to hear that leave me alone. Both Anshu and I started laughing.

I had this stupid thought in my mind that he might think that it was unusual and might stop following me. But it was a mistake and I realised it very soon...

After some time when the games class was over, I wanted to go inside the class but he was standing right in the middle of the door. I could not pass till he gave me the way.

I just said, " Excuse me... " And he gave some space to pass. I could have passed through that but I didn't want that...

" Excuse me .... Do you mind... ? " What I meant was to tell him to get aside but he bent towards me and said, " No I don't... " And kept standing there like that.

I got annoyed and I squeezed myself a bit and passed through that place. He took a deep breath... And said,

" Vikram what is your height? "

" 5' 11".... Why?? But it may increase by one or two-inch. "

" I am taller than you, so that makes me 6 feet tall?? If I gain some more height then our parents would have to find a girl who is at least 5'8"... Right? Sahil I have found one such girl... All the best to you... Find someone and our mom would not have to worry then....." He said that loud enough so that I could hear it...

Then he looked at me and wiggled his eyebrows at me and grinned.

Ugghhh that guy...

I hate him... Idiot ... Stupid... Always following me everywhere.
