Sarim drove to Armaan's office and as soon as he got there, he got off from his car and went inside. He went to Armaan's office and saw a man in suit standing Infront of the door.

He was about to get in when the guy stopped him. "Mister?" The guy stopped him, it was Zayn.

"It's very important for me to go in, man!" Sarim said in an annoyed voice and raised his hands in the air.

"Itna Kya important hai, sir? I don't remember you being close to Armaan?" Zayn asked as Sarim nodded his head and started speaking.

"I'm not close to Armaan at all! I came here for Maya. Even though she is not close to me, I'm close to her!" He said and Zayn raised his eyebrow at him giving him a "What the hell." Look.

"Pardon me, then why are you here?" Zayn asked in a very confused tone. Sarim rolled his eyes at him and spoke once again.

"It's just something very important to Armaan's life okay?" Sarim said and was about to go in but Zayn again disturbed him.

"No man! You can't go until Armaan allows you to go. Stay here!" Zayn said as Sarim gritted his teeth being utterly annoyed of Zayn.

"Okay listen! I have something to ask you. Can I?" Sarim asked, he wanted to get Zayn confused and then secretly go in.

"Yes. Absolutely." Zayn said with the charming smile of his. Sarim smiled back at him. Fake smile.

"Have you ever been in love?" Sarim asked him as Zayn widened his eyes at the question he believed was stupid.

"What kind of question is that?" Zayn narrowed his eyes at the uneasy behavior of Sarim.

"I mean! Just say it! I'm doing it for something!" Sarim insisted as Zayn crossed his arms at his chest.

"Love sounds cringe to me." He said as Sarim nodded his head. Zayn went on explaining why he didn't like love and alot of females were down for him but he didn't care and Sarim took that opportunity to run in the room.

"Hey!" Zayn yelled but before he could stop sarim, he already went in. Zayn followed him.

Sarim entered the room with a thud and Armaan looked up at him, and in a matter of seconds, his eyes turned into a darker shade of red.

"Armaan! This guy just got in without my-" before Zayn could complete Armaan give Zayn a "let him stay" look.

Zayn nodded and quietly left the room . Armaan fixed his angered eyes back at sarim and stood up from his chair. He took steps closer to Sarim.

He looked right through sarim's soul and Sarim did the same.

"Why the fuck are you here?" Armaan threw the question at him and Sarim crossed his arms on his chest giving him a challenging look.

"Don't worry, man! I'm definitely not here for you! I'm just here for Maya." As he said that Armaan felt himself weak on maya's mention but he stayed still and stared at him.

"Oh? May I know what's your relation with Maya?" Armaan asked with his arms crossed on his chest.

"I know I have wrong Maya more than anyone could but this time, it's you. I don't want you to make the same mistake, Mr Armaan." Sarim said and Armaan raised his eyebrow at him.

"Just say it, don't confuse me." Armaan said as Sarim nodded his head.

"Before I tell you this. I want to make one thing clear, I'm not doing this for you. And yes, I love Maya." He said and Armaan looked away from him.

"I'm doing this for Maya. Only her. I can't see her sad." Sarim confessed and Armaan nodded his head.

"I don't know what exactly happened between you two but losing me hurt her, but losing you destroyed her." Sarim said and Armaan felt a string of pain inside of his heart. He gulped down on his own saliva.

"Go on." Armaan said as Sarim took a long sigh before speaking. "Can you please tell me why did you leave her? What actually happened?" Sarim asked and crossed his arms on his chest.

Armaan took a deep sigh before sliding his hand into his left pocket and then looking up at sarim, getting the courage to say it.

"You really don't know it? I doubt it. I just proposed her and then when I sat my garden occupied by her thoughts, I just saw some photos. They destroyed me more than anything could, Mr Sarim. You- I hate to say it but you guys were romantically close in those photos." Armaan completed with an uneasy feeling in his throat.

"I was mad, sad and most importantly I felt betrayed. Betrayed by the person I valued the most. Then I felt like my brother's words made sense that she got with me to get some money and than running away with you leaving me broken. It all made sense. She used to love you so much, Sarim. I saw it in her eyes, the love for you." Armaan confessed.

Sarim felt a tear fall from his eye, in reality. He also saw it. At that time period, he saw so much love in Maya's eyes for him.

"I saw it but my heart choose to ignore it. I'm living my life with a regret, Mr Armaan. I don't want you to do the same." Sarim said and Armaan raised his eyebrows at him.

"So much love in her eyes? You thought she couldn't just move on from me that easily?" Sarim asked and Armaan nodded.

"Exactly. I think that." Armaan said as Sarim chuckled out with tears filled in his eyes.

"Sometimes it just takes seconds to change your mind about a person, khuch loog khuch itna bura kardete Hain ke apka Dil unse bohot jald uth jata hai or badkismati se main un khuch loogon main se Hoon, Armaan."
