Silence is the only thing spread all over Aniruddh's study,
His face is full of sweat frustation written all over his face,

Why Iam losing my control always?
He groaned to himself.
It's been very often he is feeling different towards bondita
He is no longer able to look at like earlier, like a kid
But, all he is able to see her as a full grown up girl.
His solitude came to an end as a knock disturbed him.
He reluctantly removed his head from his hands and looked at the door.
Only to find bondita at the door step fidgeting with end of her saree.
She looked at him with her eyes as if asking him permission to enter in.
Anirudh just blinked his eyes.

She came in stood in front of him.
And waited for him to take but, it didn't happen.
She sighed sitting beside him
Sakhababu!
She softly called him
Made him just nod where his gaze fixed at no where.

I don't know what's happening with you, but Iam observing you from months you are behaving weirdly at a second you will be free and talks with me like always and next second you will just goes away!
Iam sorry, if there was any fault of mine, I just don't know what's happening to you in a second
She softly said

After two months, You have returned
I thought we will talk through out the night, Iam sorry, if I expected much
And good night,
She completed her words and stood up to leave,
Before she could step forward, she felt a tug on her wrist, turning she found anirudh holding her hand
Anirudh just signalled her to sit
She did as he signalled.
Turning to her, Anirudh took a deep breathe.

It's not your fault bondita, not at all but all mine.
Anirudh said taking her hand into his.

To, phir batadigiyena, akhir kya problem hain, we will sort it out together
She pressed his hand assuring him with a smile,

I know bondita, you will be my side
To be honest, even I don't know the what's the problem is, and that's the biggest problem here
Anirudh faked a chuckle
But, all I know is..he paused for a second.
She just nodded waiting for him to proceed

It's better for us to maintain distance,
You are getting what, Iam saying right?
Bondita nodded at his question tried to remove her hand from his hold buy Anirudh tightened his grip voulenterly.

Aap jo sahi lage
Vahi hoga, muje bharosa hai aap pe
App kabhi galat nhi ho sakte mere liye
She said giving him her evergreen smile.

I just hope it is like that only, that I will always be right for you
He said making her frown

I mean my decisions
He corrected himself wondering why he said like that in the first place.
She just nodded

-----------------------------------------------------------

Kya hua bhai tumhari chehre ki saari rang udd gayi?
Batuk mumbled into bondita's ears who is munching to her luchis.
Everyone is seated at the breakfast table as usual she is between som# and batuk facing anirudh.

It's better for us to maintain distance
Anirudh's words rung in her ears.
Even though she very well knew the meaning of his words, but still couldn't understand

Kuch nhi
She whispered, feeling Anirudh's intense gaze on her.
Bontuk are all ready for their school just their breakfast left.

Baar tho sahi kehrahahain batuk, kya hua?
Som Whispered from other side.
She just nodded in no

Can you guys stop your mumbling session?
Kya khusur fusur lagarakha hain tum teeno ne, I can get bondita and batuk but, som you too
You guys has whole the damn day to discuss anything
Anirudh screeched in anger his mind already is messed up from previous night for what he said to bondita

Seems like she took it seriously.
That's why she sent coffee with bihari the morning
Anirudh thought to himself munching his bread

Why I have to stupid everytime
He groaned to herself still not removing his gaze from bondita.

Hogaya mera
Bondita got up finishing her luchis
Batuk just glared at her stuffing luchi in his mouth

I will wait outside
She said picking her bag from ground
And went out crashing the expectations of anirudh for an eye contact with her.
As soon as she disappeared from his sight,
Anirudh got up and followed her out.
Reaching outside he found bondita leaning to the car back seat already being seated in.

Anirudh walked to the car and pressed the horn making her open her eyes with a jerk which are been closed all the while.

She looked at him with a questioning gaze, to which he just shook his head getting into driver seat.

Are you going to drop us?
She asked

He just hummed,
She frowned at his lack if response

Bondita, about what I said...
He started
I know sakha babu, don't worry aap jo chahte vahi hoga
She assured him.

Wahi tho problem hain bondita
Muje pata nhi main kya chahta hu
He rubbed his forehead.

Just give yourself time sakhbabu, everything will be alright,
Don't take this much stress about your cases and work
She smiled at him.

Where, In a second turned to bondita, which a surprise painted all over his face

Cases, work?
He looked at her with questioning gaze,

Haa, I know you are stressing about work, that's why you said we should maintaine distance, like no excessive talking, masti and the study sessions
She explained making anirudh groan.

Is it she thinking all the while?
That! Iam stressed about work
He thought to himself.

He looked at her with disbelief shaking his head.

Bondita, do you really didn't get What I said?
Are you just pretending?
He asked controlling his shock.

What's there to pretend sakhababu.
That's what I got from your words after thinking a lot,
Is it not?.
She frowned at the possibility of going her assumption wrong.
That's all she concluded after thinking sitting in the car.

Un believable
Anirudh mouthed looking at her face
He never expected this

Phir tum breakfast ke time me itna udaas kyu ho?
Anirudh asked

Aapki wajah se, I thought you will talk less, and becomes akdu like earlier

Bondita.. Bondita
Anirudh ruffled his hair making them messy
