This is my 5000th post

I'm now a Rockerz

The Lyrics in Pink is taken from Taylor Swift's Begin Again

BEGIN AGAIN

Mrs. Anita & Mr. Ashok Goel

request the honour of your gracious presence on

the auspicious occasion of the wedding of their son,

Yogesh

(Grandson of Late Smt. Sarladevi & Late Shri G. L. Goel)

with

Khushi

(Daughter of Mr. Shashi & Mrs.Garima Gupta)

Arnav fiddled with the wedding card in his hand. It was the wedding card of Ms. Gupta his PA of two years. She had personally invited him. He should go. He must go. Else she'll feel unhappy.

Hell!! He couldn't!!

Auspicious occasion it says!!! Then why did it feel like gut wrenching pain?? Why did he feel like drowning peg after peg of Alcohol???

He had tried so much to avoid her!! He scolded her , reproached her but every time she was in pain he was the first one to also console her.

Lask week was her last in this office. Her fiance doesn't want her to work outside after marriage.

One week!! OH how he survived without her!! Only he knows!!

Took a deep breath in the mirror

He didn't like it when I wore high heels

But I do

Yogesh never liked the way she she wore her hair, he said it was downmarket style. She loved it!!

He hated her heels, it made her as tall as him. She loved it!!

He hated her usual style of clothes, he sent her an entire wardrobe of latest style from his fashion house. She loved it!!

Yogesh hated the lemony smell on her body , it smelled of cheap perfume. She loved it!!

Turn the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn't get this song
But I do, I do

"What utter crap Khushi!!! What will people think if they hear your ringtone!!! Yogesh Goel's fiance's ringtone so downmarket!!!"

He grabbed the phone from her hand

"I'm changing the ringtone immediately!!"

Changing it to something sexy like you he winked. "Don't be upset on me honey. You know I've a reputation to maintain"

Walked in expecting you'd be late
But you got here early and you stand and wave

Khushi expected him to be late. He was afterall a busy man. He had so many meetings to attend, He'd probably forgotten about her.

She was surprised like she had been surprised every single day she had worked at AR for Arnav Singh Raizada.

HE was standing outside the cafe waiting for her. He never waited for her!! She was his mere PA!! He smiled and waved slightly awkwardly when he saw her standing startled.

When Khushi had first joined AR she had so wanted Arnav to notice her. She took so much care to dress up just so he'd like it. She had such a schoolgirl crush on him. He never noticed!!

I walk to you

"Sir"

"Khushi" Did he just call her Khushi instead of Ms. Gupta. Well probably a mistake.

"Why did you call me here?"

"I wanted to speak to you about something. I didn't think the office would be appropriate"

"Shall we go in?" Arnav asked her

Did he just ask my permission. What's wrong with Arnav singh Raizada today??

She nodded her compliance.

He opened the door for her.

Did he just open the door for me.

You pull my chair out and help me in

And you don't know how nice that is

But I do

She made an attempt to sit in one of the empty chairs but he held her hand.

"What are you doing??"

"Finding a seat" she looked around

"I reserved one for us. Follow me"

He took her to a table in the garden beside a nice pool. The place was secluded.

"Why did you call me here sir?"

"Firstly, I'm really sorry that your rishta toot gaya.  The guy is a jerk and you'll definitely find someone far better. I'm sorry I couldn't come at the  function as I was.. busy."

"It was probably for the best. I think like you said there is someone out there who probably is a better life partner for me"

"Yes there is" He gave her a genuine small smile.

"Secondly, I want you to come back to your job. Mrs. Sethi's coffee is not that tasty and my appointments and meetings are a mess"

Khushi giggled then sobered up immediately.

"I know it's only two weeks since your to be marriage broke but you need to move on Khushi. Come back to job you'll feel better"

Three weeks!!! Bloody three weeks since she quit!! His poor heart could only take so much!!

"Are you offering me my job back after I left without giving even one month notice?? Isn't that against AR's policy?"

"yes it is but I'm the boss!! I own the place!! Perks of being CEO's PA. Plus I desperately miss my old coffee"

"I'd love my job back.  The only reason I ever left is because Yougeshji didn't like it. Thank you sir. Thank you very much"

And you throw your head back laughing
Like a little kid

And suddenly ASR starts laughing like a kid, gasping for breath. He must have found something funny in what she said although she couldn't find anything that funny.

Or all this work load could have finally cracked him!! Taken over his senses.

He looked so unlike himself when he smiled.

Never in her two years of constant working with him day and night had she seen him smile even half of what he smiled today. It was like he was a complete different person today.

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause
He never did

"Why are you staring at me like this?" Arnav asked between tears

"I never saw you smiling like this ever" Khushi answered truthfully

"you're funny" he said

Suddenly a painful memory flashed in her mind

"Khushi please don't say your ghatiya jokes in my party. These are my guest. You are my fiance learn to behave more maturely understood. Now smile."

I've been spending the last 8 months
Thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end

8 months!! 8 months she spent in a mindless relationship. He broke her slowly but surely. Only for her parents she kept quiet. 8 months of engagement and he left her at the mandak decked as a bride.

After all she changed she wasn't good enough to be his bride.

He broke her completely but surely.

He brought her back from a mindless, dreamy teenager and broke her day in day out.

Her fantasies used to revolve around her boss ASR although she knew that was never possible.

He made her face reality.

But on a Wednesday in a cafe
I watched it begin again

But here while talking to ASR she didn't even realize when she started undoing the damage Yogesh has done on her. In the next fifteen minutes she had woven fifteen types of new dreams.

The last eight months of her life vanished in a instance.

Khushi Kumari Gupta was back

And we walked down the block, to my car

And I almost brought him up

"Sir the reason my marriage broke...  sir... woh he ... I was not"

"Khushi the guy is an asshole for not realizing how precious you are... he is a jerk... I know you for two years...I can guarantee it's not anything you did... you are the best girl any guy could ever wish for... let the past die... forget about it... I've seen your smile fade as the months went by it's time your smile returned to your face"

Khushi gave him the biggest smile she could possibly give

And for the first time
What's past is past

"We are getting late khushi. A lot of work left. Ring your family you'll be late today. You have three weeks of catching up to do. Don't think you'll get paid for this three weeks and I won't give you the bonus you was supposed to get annually if you don't do your work properly. Get the singhania appointment for me by today or you are fired!!"

"rakshas laad governor... he is back"

ASR merely smirked.

Now that Khushi was finally back in his life he had all the time in the world to woo her in his style. He won't repeat the mistake he made the last two years. Only when he had lost her did he realize how precious she is. No more taking her for granted. Before another rishta came for her he better make his move.

Today he might just have to keep khushi at work till ten pm as there is a lot of workload *cough* and afterwards he can just drop her home due to unavailability of any driver.

HE just couldn't stop grinning.
