A girl in a white dress turned to me after hearing my footsteps "Kia???" I blink in confusion. What is she doing here at this time?
Noticing me, she comes up to me and wraps her arms around me, pulling me closer.
"Oh god finally you came, Arsh! I know what happened but it wasn't your fault! Why are you hurting yourself Arsh?" she broke the hug and directly looked into my swollen puffy eyes.
This is the first time we hugged, it's been a while since someone hugged me like this. Our hug was a warm hug that is like a comforting embrace that envelops me in a cocoon of love and warmth. It's a gentle squeeze that brings a sense of security and solace.
The moment she hugged me, my worries and troubles melted away and I felt truly safe, supported and protected. The feeling of a warm hug can linger long after it's over, leaving me with a sense of comfort and a reminder that you are loved.
Seeing her worried gaze made me realise that there is still someone who cares about me! Who waited for me! Only my mom and grandma used to wait for me but seeing her like this made me feel I am something for her.
But she is a famous superstar and I am just her fan, nothing else. So what is she doing here? This late night? Plus how did she know about my grandmother's death?
"What are you doing here Kia? And how do you know about all of this?" I asked in confusion. She lightly smiled. "As my manager told me, your secretary's cousin works in my music company so she told him about all of this and then he mailed my manager and that's how I am here!"
I biked, my secretary... she mean Nira? "And she also told me about your condition, she thought only I could help you so that's why I came here!". Nira seriously did those all?
"But still you shouldn't come here Kia! I am just your fan and for me I don't want you to face any problem-" she cut me off by saying "First of all Arsh you are not just my fan! And 2nd of all I already considered you as my friend!" my eyes locked at her.
"If I really see you as just my fan, do you really think I would come here! Arsh from our first meeting, I took you as my friend and if something happens to my friend I must have to help him!" she pouted and started walking to the house door.
So I was wrong! She never sees me as a fan! She said I am her friend! I didn't reply to her but started walking behind her to go inside the house.
I directly came to my bedroom and surprisingly Kia also followed me. Time passes and the situation gets more awkward. None of us are saying anything, just looking around.
I sat on the bed but she was still standing. "Kia, have a seat!" In my words she sat down on the chair in front of me while looking here and there. "Umm so how will you go back? Should I have to drop you?" I asked her to normalise the atmosphere.
"No no, when it will time, my manager will come to pick me!" I nodded also while looking here and there but not at her. But suddenly my gaze stopped on the picture in my room and it was....me and my grandmother's picture!
Realisation hit me, my throat got dryer and a drop of tears rolled down my cheeks. "Arsh!" Kia came near to me with the worried gaze which I saw before.
And that's it! I couldn't control myself anymore and broke down. "Why does everyone leave me! The people who I love the most, why they always leave me! Am I that bad Kia! Am I that unlucky Kia?". My head is on her belly while I hugged her waist tightly and tears continuously brimming from my eyes.
"No Arsh you are not! You are not bad at all! In fact you are the best guy who I have ever seen in my life! You are the best guy to me Arsh!" She put her hand on my head while holding me tightly.
"I know Arsh losing the people who you love the most, hurts so bad. I can't even imagine how you must be feeling right now. But it doesn't mean it is your fault. It's never your fault".
"It's just fate, Arsh and unfortunately we have to accept it! Trust me, there is still someone who loves you conditionally and just wants to be with you!" I looked into her eyes, her eyes were also teary.
"Just wait, Arsh, when the right time will arrive that someone will come into your life and will love you forever! Just don't treat yourself like this! You got it Mr. Bad" we both chuckled in tears at her last words. How I love this nickname!
Just like her hug, her words also made me feel safe, protected, supported and secured. But her words sound so familiar to me! Do She and Nira have similar ways to comfort others?
She whipped my tears and cupped my face "Go Arsh and freshen up! I'll go and get you something to eat!" she smiled. I softly nodded to her like a good boy.

I came to the kitchen while thinking about what to do! I know very well that Arsh didn't eat anything the whole day! But it's midnight now so all the deliveries must be closed and I don't even know how to cook! Now what should I do?
Finally after thinking for too long, I started cooking some noodles. That's the easiest thing for me to cook. But the whole kitchen is already messed up. Oh no this is so embarrassing! What Arsh will think about me ugh!
Suddenly I feel that someone is watching me so I looked and found Arsh who was watching me while folding his arms. Oh shit!
"Let me help you!" "No" I made him stop while showing him a spoon. "Let me do it alone! You go and wait upstairs" I am sounding like his wife lol but wait wife! You are going too far Kia, stop right there.
He was about to go but "In that left drawer" I looked at the left "There is fire service number.... umm if you need it in any case". I- did he again joke with his straight face? I gave him a tiny glare.
â â â
I am so nervous right now as Arsh is going to try the noodles I cooked. Ahh please god help me! "Thank you so much Kia for this! This smells so good!" Aww he is too sweet for me. My sweet Mr. Bad!
He gulped one spoon and I was looking at him very carefully. My heart is beating so fast. "Mmh this is so yummy!" I widened my eyes. "What? Really?"
"Hmm try this" saying he held the spoon in front of mouth. Oh my god he is going to feed me by his sexy hands???? Umm yes he got sexy hands for real!
Who wants to miss this chance so I opened my mouth and he fed me and surprisingly it was actually good! Thank god!
He started eating again and I am of course admiring him again "Today you said I am your friend but things you did today, which made me think you are not my friend!" I blinked in confusion.
"Today you became my best friend! Thank you so much for comforting me Kia! I won't forget this ever! Thanks again for staying with me in my hard times!" I smiled at his words. "You're most welcome Mr. Bad!" and he also smiled...
For a while we exchanged a few words and I know right now Arsh is not in that mood to gossip but still answers politely.
My phone rang and as I guess it's Naina! She must have come to pick me. It's almost 4 am and now I have to go as Arsh also needs to rest.
"Arsh now I have to go! Just call me if you need anything! Don't think you are alone, I am always there for you and of course don't forget now I am your friend".
"You mean best friend?" He confronted me and I chuckled. "Yes yes Mr. Bad!". "Let me walk you there!" he said and started walking with me.
Time with him as Kia passes so fast. I want to stay by his side more but I can't do anything! "Bye Mr. Bad, have a good night!" I pulled his cheeks. "You too Kiki!" he softly smiled.
3 months later
"What do you mean that we don't have any model to present our new launch Mr. Mark!" Arsh asked in confusion. Just like him, I am also confused about this sudden emergency meeting!
"I am really sorry sir! But that model we fixed she got sick at the very last minute! That's why I'm holding this emergency meeting!" Mr. Mark answered.
"We have only one day left for our launch and we don't have any models!" Arsh breath out. "Yes sir, that's a problem! We just have one day left and that's why no celebrities are accepting our deal as most of their schedule is booked!".
Arsh started thinking how to handle this situation, he looked so pissed, as he should! He literally worked so hard for this project and now we don't have any models.
"What about Sana mam do it!" Sana's secretary excitedly said who was standing behind Sana and Sana was sitting beside Arsh. Hearing her, Arsh looked more annoyed.
"I don't have any wish to bankrupt the Ivan Industry!" Everyone tried to hold their laughter, including me lol. My man knows how to joke very well. Sana seems so pissed off at Arsh's answer.
Suddenly something brilliant came to my mind! "What about superstar Kia Marshall!" I said and looked at Arsh. Everyone started looking at each other until Sana spoke. "But Miss. Nira, she is on a break!"...........
