“Are ajeeb zabardasti hai. Kaha na nahi peena mujhe? Peeche hatiye.” Slapping her palm on his chest, she gave him a light push. “I said, back the heck off, AVM.”
“Kyu nahi peena? Vrat hai tumhara apne… apne boyfriend ke liye?” He shoved his hand in his pocket to hide his clenched fist from her.
Her downcast eyes lifted at him in sheer disbelief.
‘He was still stuck at that? Dammit!’
Sucking in a sharp breath, she drew his attention toward her with stepping closer. “Na to mera vrat hai aur na mera koi boyfriend hai, AVM. Pehle bhi bata chuki hoon. Aur kitni baar batana hoga? Email kar doon?”
“Really, Ishqi?” He rolled his eyes, ridiculing her assurance that he did not believe. “Boyfriend nahi hai tumhara? To uss din jiske saath dinner date par gayi thi wo kaun tha? Boyfriend ke bacche ka caretaker?”
She was about to slap her forehead, when he held her arm, pointing at her Mehendi. She stomped her foot in frustration. “Boyfriend ke bacche ka caretaker? Matlab kuch bhi bolenge aap? Kuch bhi?”
“Tum kuch bhi kar sakti ho aur main kuch bhi bol bhi nahi sakta?” he muttered, letting go of her arm.
She narrowed her eyes at his weird comments. “Suna maine!”
“Haan to?”
“Oh Lord, give me the strength to deal with this weird creation of yours!” She slumped down on the bed.
“Did you just call me… me… a weird creation?” He put the glass in his hand aside before standing in front of her.
“My bad. Not a weird creation. You are THE WEIRDEST CREATION.”
“ISHQI!”
“Kya hai?”
He kicked the bed, before sitting beside her.
“For once and all – he was my boy friend not my boyfriend. Agar boy friend aur boyfriend ke beech ka difference bhi mujhe aapko samjhana padega to kya, kya point kya hai aapki Harvard ki padhai ka?”
He let it sink in, liking the idea of a boy friend. “Sach keh rahi ho?”
“Haan. Haan. Sach keh rahi hoon but tell me something, agar mera boyfriend hota bhi to kya? Shouldn’t you be happy that your best friend finally found her soulmate?”
‘I can’t wait to tell you that your best friend is your soulmate, Ishqi!’ His silent confession was yet to find his voice but he couldn’t resist wishing for her to read it in his eyes!

This is a random piece of fiction. Absolute imagination. Kind of a random mini tale based on the picture on the characters named Ishqi and Aahan from the show Ishk Par Zor Nahi.
