Arnav lay sprawled on his unmade bed, the disarray of his room reflecting the chaos in his mind. His thoughts were consumed by Varsha, his best friend’s sister, a woman who had unknowingly woven a spell around him. He reached for his phone, his fingers hovering over Varsha’s contact number. He hesitated, then put the phone down, chiding himself for his foolish thoughts.
His phone rang, the screen flashing Riya’s name. His girlfriend. He answered, the pleasantries exchanged feeling hollow and insincere. His mind was elsewhere, his heart yearning for a different woman. After the call, he impulsively typed a joke, a hint of sexual innuendo lurking within its words. He sent it to Varsha, his heart pounding in his chest. Immediately after, he regretted his actions, quickly deleting the message.
A few minutes later, his phone buzzed. It was Varsha. His heart raced, his palms sweating. He answered, his voice betraying his nervousness.
Varsha’s voice was filled with amusement, “Did you just send me a dirty joke?”
Arnav stuttered, “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Varsha chuckled, “Come on, Arnav. I’m not stupid. I saw it before you deleted it.”
Arnav was embarrassed, his cheeks burning. He tried to laugh it off, “Well, you know how I can be sometimes.”
Varsha playfully insulted him, “Yeah, a pervert who can’t control his hormones.”
Arnav was taken aback but couldn’t help but laugh. He retorted, “Well, you’re one to talk, Miss Siren of Bangalore.”
Varsha laughed, “Touche, Arnav. But remember, I’m your best friend’s sister. Keep it in your pants.”
Arnav nodded, “Yes, ma’am.”
Varsha hung up, leaving Arnav alone with his thoughts. He realized his feelings for Varsha were stronger than he thought. He fell asleep, dreaming of her, the unintentional innuendo a prelude to the desires that stirred within him.
