Epilogue|3 am.

*Phone buzzes*

He: She is calling me this late. Its 3 in the morning.

His sister: Happy first, brother mine. Seems like you forgot.

He: Woah! And I was thinking it has been a while since she has called me this late. Is everything okay. Wait. Am I sounding too sleepy at the moment?

His sister:Heck yes! Go wash your face while I take the call. 

He:Thanks a million.*Leaves*

His sister: *Shouts*Need a chocolate later.Hahaha! *Picks the call*Hey Darling! Happy first.

She:Heyyy You remembered! Thank you so much. By the way you picked the call. Is he sleeping?

His sister:Too eager to talk to him, huh? Naah he was awake all the while. Told him to wish you at 12 only but he said 3 is special for you both. And at the last moment, he badly needed to use the washroom.

She: Wow!

His sister: What wow?

She: Didn't knew you also write.That's a good story. Is it in your genes or what?

His sister: Aaha! You are damn good. Where did I go wrong?

She: Spent a year with him and I know he is terrible with dates. Imagine arriving a week late with the cake on his best friend's birthday.

His sister:Hahahaha! His excuse was also damn good. Ordered it from Amazon. Got it a bit late. But his friend didn't mind na?

She: Oh they are a bunch of idiots.

His sister: And here he comes. Talk to him.

He: It's the feeling that matter, not the so called wishes and gifts. Happy First.

She:*in a lame voice* Yes same to you.

He:Wait are you angry?

She: Probably. Your sister tried to save your skin but she failed.

He: Soooooo sorry. You should have reminded me before I said good night. Ok how can I apologise.

She: Well I will forgive you if you come immediately where we had our first date.

He: Hahaha! You are the best. Coming ASAP.

She: Catch you!

*Phone disconnects*

His sister: Here. Take this bracelet I bought it for you guys. It has both of yours initials engraved. One for you and one for her. Tell her you had bought it a week beforehand only. Don't know how many times I have to save my little brother's skin.

He: Thank you so much, you are certainly the best. And I will be telling her its a gift from you to us. Catch you in the morning. *Leaves*

His sister: Your stupidity is damn contagious. Tell her to be careful. Hahaha! Stupid.

Her terrace.

She: It's beautiful. I am gonna thank her later for it.

He: Yeah I know. Happy first.

She: Yeah! Happy first. *Hugs him tightly*

He: So a year passed by. What a boring one it must have been for you.

She: Shut up! I don't know. Without you I would not be able to survive at all.

He: Yes and without you I would have probably failed 11th. I still thank god that you sat beside me.

She: Hahaha! So true.

He: So what's your plan later? Wanna go to the movies.

She: Naah I have sorted everything out. You have to just stick with me. I am gonna do everything. It's gonna be a gift for you for sticking with a girl like me who failed probably in 3-4 relationships. People called me names. You just came into my life and had every solution to each of my problem. You were there whenever I cried. You are the most stupid person on this planet who accepted a girl like me.*Sniffs*

He: Naah! I am the most intelligent person who got a girl like you because you have a beautiful face, a beautiful heart and most importantly, a girl who showed me her paper in exam and due to her I am in 12th.

She: Hehehe! You can't be serious for a while. Huh! But that's what I love about you. You are a good soul. Really fortunate to have you.

He: Thank you so much.

She:*raising her eyebrow* What was your plan for today?

He: Why are you reminding me that. I was really feeling damn guilty for not even remembering such an important date.

She: Hahaha! I got you.

He: Whatever. By the way even I have a gift for you.

She: Whattt?

He: I remembered it was our first last week and had even bought you something. I forgot at the last moment only. *Takes out a wrapped box from his pocket* Its probably not that good.

She:*Takes it and opens*Wow that's a beautiful locket.

He: It opens and I have written you something.

She:*Takes out a piece of paper from it and reads* To the exquisite one who tolerated me every time. Sorry for being an annoying brat but trust me I will never let your heart to be sad again.Always.*Smiles and hugs him* Thank you.

He: For what?

She: For being there. Always.

He: Ok but where is my gift?

She: Feelings matter not the so called gifts.

He: I wonder whose lines were those.

She: The one who entered my life and turned it upside down.

Both smile.
