Rohan POV :

'No friendship is an accident'
~O. Henry

Yes! No friendship is an accident even though we meet them accidentally. People say we never know when love strikes but I believe its the same with friends too. We never know when they become part of our lives..

My Dad says friends are chosen family and I never chose one. In world full of fake people I never got one whom I can share my thoughts or feelings. But now I need not worry as I got someone whom will stick to me whatever happens.. Aashna

I heard a sound outside my room and closed my diary immediately, no one knows I pen up my feelings. Its my way to vent out my thoughts, "Rohu" I heard my Tara Ma's voice. Silently I went and sat at dining table.

" Vikranth! When will you bring your daughter? " Grand Pa asked Dad making him cough.

" Why not? If Teju agrees.. " my dad winked at Mom.

"Enough Vikranth! Your sons should be doing the acts which you are showing us. Dharam wants you to bring a daughter by marrying your sons but not the way you are thinking" Leena Grand Ma shouted.

"Why should we restrict him? I am ready to take responsibility of my little sister " I said to create more fun.

" Then let's search a bride for Rohan instead of Avish first" Jayanth Dad said making me fume.

"Stop teasing my Rohu" Tara Ma, my angel saved me.

"Avish! Do you have anyone in your mind? Or you like someone? " Mom asked making my brother blush.

Unlike other times where we used to have fun on this marriage topic today it seemed more serious. I think Avish likes my best friend Aashna..

You people don't know what happened right? Let me share..

DAY ONE

" Thanks for coming Aashu, I can call you that right? " and she agreed smiling.

" Rohan! I came here on my family's insistence. My Mom used to be good friend of Mrs. Tejaswini, she wanted me to help her if I could so.. " she informed me.

Her honesty flattered me, she can take advantage of any situation which ever happened since yesterday but she did not. She made me believe that there is some good remaining in this world.

" Doctor! How is Mrs. Chauhan? "

" Are there any ways to make her feel better? "

"Don't be negligent while treating her, other wise you have to face my wrath"

Aashna kept on talking, warning but my dumb brother is looking at her like a lost puppy found its owner. And this stupid girl is advising without knowing that Avish is my mom's son.

DAY 5

After having fun for four days, I have decided to tell her truth.

"Rohu! That doctor is so cute. First time I feel something like attraction" Aashu shared her feelings.

"I think even he likes you" I said which made her smile wide.

"No no.. I don't think so.. How do you know? He will not like me" Aashu said convincing herself.

"I know as he is my brother" I said finally making her shocked.

DAY 12

"I think your books cover got mixed with mom's shopping bags" Avish gave her the books which he finished reading.

"I was reading them so haven't returned before, hope you won't mind" Avish added.

"Its ok" Aashna said but I know its not at all ok. She is very possessive about her books and would never allow one to touch them without her permission.

DAY 13

"Aashu! Yesterday were you angry on my brother? " I asked casually decorating our lawn for my mom's birthday.

"Angry? On your brother?" She frowned. "About books" I hinted and she smiled shaking her head.

..

Slowly Aashna became part of our family and my mom started loving her like her own daughter. Avish and Aashu used to steal glances at each other, my brother used to surprise her with books, flowers and what not.

I am sure that they like each other but I cannot share this with my family without any confirmation.

"Mom! I want some time to be clear about this. Meanwhile why don't you search bride for Vahin? He is the eldest and he should be married first" Avish bro intelligently dodged the topic towards Vahin bro.

..

I went to studio for recording bit its the same place where I got humiliated. When I stepped inside I saw the same people who taunted me making my wounds open up.

Setting aside all my thoughts I went inside record room and started singing. I finished the song and came out but again those cunning people were laughing.

"Ronny hasn't learn singing yet, I wonder how people call him rockstar" One music director commented.

"I told you before only that let's give chance to some other singer. This Ronny just bangs his guitar and girls fall for him" other one mocked me with some other bad words.

"Without your Chauhan background you are nothing Ronny, you are just a trash" they kicked me out.

The little patience which I had till now vanished, I raised my hand to slap him but my values didn't allow me to do so.

In that rage I drove my car blindly without knowing where I am heading. My mobile was ringing continuously but I didn't care.

Then I saw a car passing my car and with a skid it stopped before mine making me apply brakes finally.

I got down to show all my anger who blocked my way but to my surprise its Aashna.

"What the hell happened to you Rohu? That's a road end you were speeding towards it.. I am shocked to see that it was you. Why are you not lifting any calls? " I was not able to answer any of her questions.

" I was with Ayaan teaching about driving, then I saw you crossing all speed limits. You were not answering phone calls and kept on increasing speed of your car. So I had no other option than this" she said panting.

We were almost near to the end of half demolished flyover which never got completed because of legal issues.

"Are you fine Rohu? " Aashna asked me worried. She risked her life for me and asking me if I was fine. I lost my calm and cried hugging her.

" Aashu!! Am I a bad singer?" my question surprised her.

"No" she replied confidently, "then why do few people blame me that all my craze only because my family background and my dad's power?" I asked blankly.

"People are jealous of your success, See Rohu! When you are on ladder of success there will be hurdles. There will be always someone to pull you back but you are the only one who should keep moving" Aashu said in serious tone.

"Regarding your singing, there are few genres where you have to improve. One of your greatest fan suggested this, so don't blame me" she raised her hands in surrender.

"Thanks for honest opinion Aashu... And what are the genres you were talking about?" I asked to start working on them.

"For that you have to meet my lil brother Ayaan" she said and winked.

Later on slowly I became close to everyone in her family, they are most humble and sweet people I ever met.

The way uncle brought up his three children giving them equal freedom and responsibilities made me to decide how I should be in future.

Amidst all these the only one wrong thing happened.. Vahin bro didn't like Aashna being close to my family. He warned me not be much friendly with her but he left the decision to me.

I just hope there should not be any situation where I have choose between my family or best friend.

...

From the past one week I have seen my dads and grand pa worried about something. Even Avish is getting involved in business which he does only if there is some emergency.

My doctor brother has knowledge on business unlike me... I am more into fine arts.

"Mr. Chauhan this is the best option, you need not even worry about it" Mr. Nagpal was saying when I entered hall.

"What is your opinion Vahin? " Jayanth Dad asked my elder brother who is thinking deeply. "We can trust Mr. Dev Nagpal, he has experience in all these issues" Vahin bro suggested.

"Hey Rohu! When did you come back from rehearsal? I was with your mom, she wanted few plants in garden" Aashu said smiling.

"So you became my mom's gardening partner ditching me" I said folding my hands. "When your mom has useless son like you, someone has to be there right" she said with cunning smile.

"You are stealing my mom from me" I whined, "You have Tara aunty Kiddo" she ruffled my hair.

Just then I saw her smile vanished looking towards hall and my eyes followed her.

"I think I should leave from back door, its not good to disturb them" Aashu said in hesitation. She called her brother to pick her from back gate.

Just before leaving she ran back towards me, "Rohu! If you trust me then tell your family not to trust that lawyer. He is very cunning and manipulative" she warned me.

..

After sometime I joined everyone and tried to understand what they were discussing.

"Grand Pa! Why are you blindly opting for Mr. Nagpal's idea? Do you think he is trust worthy? " I asked without hesitation.

"You don't have knowledge about business Rohu" Avish said blandly.

"But.. "

" Rockstar Ronny this is not your music show, so better don't interfere" Vahin bro interrupted rudely.

When my doctor brother can interfere in business, why don't they involve me?

Yeah! They too think I'm not worth without The Chauhan tag beside my name.

"Vahin and Avish both of you have expressed your opinions. Rohan! Even you have right to say your opinion " my dad said in his professional tone.

" Dad! I think you should not trust that lawyer" I just said what Aashna told me to say.

"Is there any particular reason? " Jayanth Dad asked me.

" Actually Aashna told me to warn you" I said the truth.

"Who is she to blame someone? Rohan I told you not to be friends with her. Ok if you are friends that's your problem, don't bring them into family. I warn you" Vahin shouted.

"Vahin! Calm down.. Aashna really cares for us" Grand Pa said.

"May be... But how does she know about Mr. Nagpal?" Vahin questioned me in his ever arrogant tone.

"May be there is some reason" I blurted out.

"And what is it? " now its my Avish bro who joined Vahin.

I remained calm as I don't know what to say. I think all the gents of our family here understood my silence. Otherwise its only my mothers who understand me without words.

" Rohan! We know that you trust your friend but business is different from friendship" Jayanth dad patted my back and went away.

"Try to find out reason why your friend said that" Vahin said.

I saw everyone giving me sympathetic look, maybe I shouldn't have taken Aashna's words seriously.

I saw my dad thinking something deeply but I didn't disturb thinking of mess I have just created.

I will not question Aashna, I will wait till she herself says the reason behind her words.
