When I came back to the house it was almost evening. Junu was in the kitchen and Rojin wasn't inside the house. A kind of relief filled me. Not having to be around him was itself a relief. Otherwise, I would get nervous. I had already freshened up and wanted a cup of coffee.
"What's cooking?" I asked Junu as soon I stepped inside the kitchen.
Junu looked at me with a confused expression.
"Are you okay?"
"I thought you went to the party?"
"Party?"
"Rojin had mentioned earlier that you both were going to Aarati's party,"
Oh, snap. I totally forgot about it. This is what happened when Rojin was near. Yesterday he came back and today I forgot everything except him. The whole day it was him who was in my mind.
"He was here," I muttered acting as if I didn't know anything.
"He left an hour ago saying he needed to buy gifts,"
I sighed.
"I forgot about it," I said looking at my phone.
