Gavin's confession reminds Ariana about the time when she started liking him. She is sitting silently in her room and lost in the nostalgic memories of the past.
"Ariana! Do you use gamer's chat server? I have made one server there. If you don't want to share contact number we can chat over there and can also do voice call. You know well, many of our friends are moved to different cities for job.. Mmm! like Gavin. He also moves to the other state. We can be touch with eachother.", Presley spoke to Ariana as they both were sitting near the bonfire. " Oh! That's why I haven't seen if from a long time. If you say so then okay. Add me there. My username is Aaru.", Ariana replied. Presley smiled and added her in the server
Presley is very close to Ariana. They met on the beach a few weeks ago. Presley is extrovert girl. She is very mischievous. She has a big sparkling eyes with chubby face. She owns long black hair. She is 18 years, hence very playful and bold girl. She always stands with Ariana when someone tries to bully her or flirt with her. Presley always regards Ariana as her elder sister. Gavin is Presley's best friend, this could be the reason that Ariana didn't afraid being alone with him. Because, she knew Presley would beat him if she tries to bully Ariana.
It was almost midnight and they both went to their homes. Next morning, Ariana was free at home. She opened the server and saw the " Good Morning" message of Gavin in the server. [Server is kind of group on an application which is basically used by gamers for chatting, video /voice calling, and sharing any media. Moreover, it doesn't disclose any personal information such as contact number.] Ariana waited for a moment and then replied " Very Good Morning ^ ^" Gavin started typing, " Aaru?". Ariana chuckled, " Haha! you don't know me? Idiot I'm Ariana. Aaru is my game name." Gavin sent another message, "Which game do you play?" "Battle Royale", Ariana immediately replied. " What's your KD by the way?", Gavin questions. Ariana was confused as she started playing that game and she didn't know much about it. She hesitated, " What is KD? I just started playing it." Gavin laughed, " So, you are a noob. Dumbo! it's killing death ratio. I wonder how could you play if you don't know basics of the game."
Ariana rolled her eyes and sent eye rolling emojis. Gavin liked her reaction and started teasing her, " One more thing- I don't play with noobs." Ariana angrily replied, "Huh! Who wants to play with you? I'll never play with you even if I have no one to play." She put her phone aside angrily. On the other side, Gavin was smiling on her reaction.
Days passed. They used to argue with eachother over small things. Ariana is a foodie person. Whenever she ate something she posted the photo in server. Gavin cursed her ,as she deliberately teased him with food photos. It was the month of October. The mornings became little cold. Ariana was going to her workplace. She arrived earlier before everyone, even the doors were closed. A cool breeze was blowing. Ariana felt cold, but she couldn't do anything. Ariana clicked the picture of the main door with lock and posted in the server with a caption of " Closed again aaggghh!!" Gavin replied, " Very good! haha you always tease me with food. It's your punishment. I wish it will always happen with you."
" I'm not asking for your opinion. Why are you interfering in my things."Ariana became irritated. Gavin questioned, "Then why are you sending pictures?" "It's not for you, there are many people here, you are not the only one here. So, stop dreaming. Moreover, I have work, so I'm going.", Ariana clarified. Gavin chuckled as he read her message, " Okay! Dumbo, Bye."
In the same evening, Ariana was playing Battle Royale game and waiting for her brother Sami. Like Jacob, Sami is also her brother. She is an apple of Sami's eyes. She used to play with both Sami and Jacob. Unfortunately, they both were absent. Ariana suddenly thought about Gavin. She opened the personal chat option in the server. She hadn't sent any direct message to Gavin till now ,neither he had. Ariana thought for a moment and sent him a message " Do you want to play Battle Royale? My game name is Aaru." She got a reply from him," I'm already in game and I have sent you request in game. Add me and we will play."
Without teasing or taunting her, Gavin immediately agreed to play with her. Even she had said him that she would never play with him, then why did he suddenly agree? Ariana was in dilemma. She opened the game and accepted his request. He immediately invited her to his lobby and started the game. Ariana unmuted her mic and said, "Hello". As soon as she unmuted the mic there were two more random boys in the game as their team member, they also started speaking. Ariana left speechless. Gavin started laughing loudly on their reaction. He told the Ariana to mute their speakers. Ariana immediately did so. Then she asked him the reason behind his game name. Gavin is a Civil Engineer, so he has kept his game name as Concrete. Ariana chuckled after hearing it.
As they were playing, Ariana was walking on the rooftop. "Achoo!!!", Ariana sneezed. It seems she had caught cold. "What happened? Ariana! Are you alright?", Gavin worriedly asked. " I think so, perhaps I catch a cold." , Ariana replied. Gavin concerned, " Ohhh! Maybe you stood outside your workplace in the morning. I'll not curse you anymore." "Why are you suddenly so worried about me?", Ariana said with confusion. " Because health is more important than fight. Now got it. You little dumbo", Gavin answered calmly. " I'm not dumbo! Aacho!!, Ariana again sneezed in between her conversation. Gavin became worried, "Where are you right now? Take some medicine and go to sleep." Ariana replied," I'm on the rooftop. I'm alright. Don't be so worried." " You are really dumbo. Go downstairs. Can't you see the weather it's too cold outside and you are roaming. You will get sick, if you stay here for longer time.", Gavin commanded. "I don't want to go downstairs, because I won't be able to speak then." Ariana complained with sad face.
Ariana lives in nuclear family with his father, mother and younger brother. Her parents doesn't like games much, so they didn't allow her to play games. She generally went to terrace for playing game. Gavin chuckled as he heard, " It's fine. We can talk tomorrow over voice call. There is a option of calling in private message section of Gamers Chat app. So, now be a good girl and take some rest." Ariana nodded her head, "Okay! If you say so, then I'll go to room and sleep. But don't forget to call tomorrow." Gavin replied, " As you order, Ma'am." Both laughed and Ariana went for sleeping.
