Back to work on Monday. I went to the office and I had so much to do. It was a terrible working day for me. I don’t know why Mondays are mundane. Bundle of papers on my desk. I got to take care of each piece. I got to make sure no error is detected. In the end, I dropped my head on my desk sighing in relief. Work over. After closing from work, I entered my car. Suddenly, someone held me from behind. Not after so much stress from the office. Oh, God, who is it now? Sidd has never attempted kidnapping me, so who then was it? Even innocent people got lots of enemies. As I struggled, he injected me with a tranquilizer. That was all I could remember.I woke up in a dark room. Someone has abducted me this time. I was scared. No one defended me. Sidd wouldn’t come for me, not after what I did to him at the park. He was both my hero and my enemy. Imagining a scenario where I had to call on my enemy to come to save me from friends I don’t know makes me bitter sometimes. I fearfully stepped do
I walked feebly inside. I met my mom making a call, I guess she was calling Kiara. She dropped the phone as soon as she saw me.“Where have you been, Rani?” my mom asked worriedly, rushing to me and holding my arm.I didn’t say anything, I only hugged her. I couldn’t control my tears while hugging my mom.“What is wrong, dear, why are you crying?” she asked tenderly. I stayed mute for a while before speaking out after disengaging the hug.“I’m all right, Mom. I just missed you!”“What happened to you?” she queried. “Why didn’t you come home last night? I tried your line but it wasn’t reachable.”“I…I…fainted in my car on my way home from work. I was taken to the hospital, I only woke up this morning. I’m sorry, Mom!” I lied.“It’s okay, my child. Go upstairs and freshen up then come down for breakfast.”Okay, Mom!” I agreed and went upstairs. I came down a few minutes later for breakfast. I couldn’t go to work that day because I was tired and also late. I called my boss and no
The following morning, I was seated on my bed with my head leaning to the headboard and scrolling through my phone when I received a call from Kiara.“Hi, sis! How are things?” I asked smiling.“Something bad has happened,” Kiara phrased from the other end in a teary tone.“Something bad like what?” I queried already nervous as I jerked my back from the headboard.“Sidd was involved in a terrible accident last night.”“What? Accident? How? Which hospital is he in? Is he okay? Oh, God!” I expressed already in tears. I pushed him. What have I done?“He is in seven hills hospital,” Kiara dictated and I hung up immediately. I took my change purse and ran out. I told my mom what had happened and I left the house in haste. Before you could say, Jack Robinson, I was at the hospital. I rushed inside and there, I saw Kiara in tears. Ranveer, his mom, Mrs. Anushka Arora, his dad, Mr. Maasilan Arora, and his younger sister, Sunia Arora, were all present at the hospital. I tried my best to
A few minutes later after I got home, Sidd called.“Already missing me?” I teased.“Why not? I just wish we could get married today,” he said and I laughed. “ That sounds funny, right? But that’s how bad I need you right now.”“Aww! What should I do now? Should I come over?”“That will be great!”“You aren’t serious yet,” I declared smiling. “I’m not coming over and we are not getting married any time soon, just bear it, okay?”“Why is that?”“If you want me to be your girlfriend, then you have to court me first.”“Court you? What for? You are already in love with me, right?” he asked.“Says who? If you don’t court me, I won’t be your girlfriend.”“Really? Okay then, I will be courting you and I will get myself another girlfriend!”“Huh? Do you want to cheat on me already? Come on, Sidd, I was just joking,” I said pathetically.“I was joking too. Don’t fear, okay? No other girlfriend, just you,” he stated and I was relieved. “Anyways, can we go out tomorrow?” he requested.
In Sanjay’s room, he was simply pacing up and down soliloquizing.“I love Rani and she must be mine,” he grumbled to himself. “I will do anything to have her all to myself. I can’t let that guy take her away from me.”“What are you thinking about, brother?” Sanjay’s sister, Amita asked as she walked in. “You look disturbed,” she added touching him on the shoulder.“I’m okay, don’t worry,” he responded.“You are not okay, brother, I can see that. Just tell me what disturbs you,” she said concerned.“Well, I’m in love with a certain lady,” he began, relaxing his muscles for the expression of his emotions. “She is so beautiful. She had these almond-shaped eyes that lure me, she was endowed with natural rosy pink lips, a fairer complexion, cute dimples, and a hot feminine shape. She’s got this special character that’s so magnetic. She enchanted me. I just can’t get over her sweet voice, her charming smile and everything,” he praised.“Wow, my brother is in love again,” Amita laughed
Sidd was standing on the road one day when a car swept past him. He sighted Rani at the back of the car.She had a handkerchief tied to her mouth which made her voice not be heard. Upon sighting her, Sidd took to his heels, he ran after the car. The car later started speeding faster. After running after the car for a while, he got tired. He stopped to catch his breath. While on it, Rani called him.“Rani, are you okay? What did they do to you?” he queried worriedly.“What are you talking about?” she asked from her room confused. “Who did what?”“I just saw you being taken away in a car.”“What are you saying, Sidd?” she asked. “I haven’t even left home this morning. Maybe you were just hallucinating.”While making the call, a car tried to run Sidd over. Fortunately for him, Ranveer was around. He tried calling him to get off the road but he couldn’t hear him. Ranveer ran to him and pushed him off the road. The call hung up immediately. Sidd was surprised when the car zoomed off on the
Sidd is dead? My heart jumped out of me and then dropped back down inside. I didn’t want to think evil. I will run mad.“Sidd, what are you doing?” I cried holding him close tightly. “Come on, Sidd, don’t die on me, please,” I sobbed bitterly while Ranveer was just concentrating on reaching the hospital at any cost.“Hey, you are choking me,” Sidd commented and I gave a relieved smile. I pulled him closer to me. I can’t ever lose Sidd. I will die along with him. When we got to the hospital, Ranveer called the attention of the nurses. They took Sidd inside and then to the operation room while I and Ranveer stayed back.“Stop crying, Rani, he will be fine,” Ranveer pacified.I hugged him while still crying.“Stop crying, okay?” he fondled my hair. “Nothing will happen to him,” he assured.We both sat down later on while waiting for the doctor to come out of the operating room. The doctor took out the two bullets and treated him. The doctor came out an hour later. I and Ranveer l
In Sanjay’s home, Amita was in her room wearing a long face when Sanjay walked in.“What are you doing here?” she questioned with a hint of anger in her voice.“I’m sorry, Amita,” he apologized touching her on the shoulder. “I shouldn’t have raised my voice at you.”“It’s okay,” she accepted. She couldn’t be angry with her brother for long. She is just that easy. “I just don’t want you to get involved in things that will bring you problems,” she stated.“I have heard you. Cheer up now, okay? I want to take you shopping today,” he said.“Really?!” Amita exclaimed happily, jumping up on the bed.“Dress up quickly, okay? I will be waiting for you in the car,” Sanjay said with a smile.“I will be ready in a few minutes,” she stated enthusiastically as she sprung up from the bed and Sanjay went out. She dressed up some minutes later and went to meet Sanjay.“How do I look?” she asked as she spun around in her beautiful flared gown.“You look as charming as always,” Sanjay complime
