I came to know about these things on our second date.
Me : Oh my God Arya, you are wearing a Nathani (nosering). You look more beautiful than ever before! You both complete each other.
Arya : Thank You Mister, anything for you!
Me : Please let me take one picture.
Arya : What? Here? No, please. Not today.
Me : Just one click Arya.
Arya : But you have my enough photos and here…
Me : Smile please.
Arya : Happy? Now let’s order something. I’m thirsty.
Me : Okay, what would you like to drink?
Arya : Umm, my all time favourite.
Me : And what is that?
Arya : Don’t you know? I told you so many times. I wish you pay some attention when I say something!
Me : Okay Okay… I’m sorry. I’ll remember now onwards. Promise. Can we please order something now?
Arya : Ok fine. (To waiter) One Pumpkin Spice Latte please.
Waiter : And for you, Sir?
Me : Whatever she said, make it two.
Arya : So, how’s your work? Any progress in that book?
Me : Yeah, I mean… I think I should try something else. This writing stuff is not as easy as it looks like.
Arya : What? You are not serious, are you?
Me : Yes, I am. It’s like I just lost interest or I don’t know what but…
Arya : Everything before the word 'but' is horse’s shit.
Me : Who does even say that?
Arya : Well, my father used to say that. And lost interest? What about all those things you told me earlier? You already quit your job, I thought writing was your passion and now you’re saying you just lost interest! So one day, when you won’t find me interesting enough then you’ll leave me, right?
Me : No Arya, please don’t say that. Give me some time, I’ll definitely do something.
Arya : You should not brag about such things then! And if you’re not writing then what do you do all the day?
Me : Okay, now cool down. I’m trying to figure out something else. I really am, believe me. Rather than that I play FIFA with my friends and of course waiting for your next episode my dear Arya!
She stared at me like I’m the one from her killing list and left 10 dollars on the table. “Keep the change.” was the last thing I heard from her!
See? There were many things she wished I knew, but sadly… I didn’t.
