In The Name Of Love

Aarohi was looking out of the window as the flight was about to land in Mumbai. She never thought that she would have to leave her home, Udaipur like this.

A day of her life changed her whole life. But one thing didn't change, her guilt for using Neil.

She was already tired as she hadn't slept at night and her flight was also at 3:40 am, so she rushed to the airport as soon as she could.

She was sitting at the airport since her flight reached there. She took out the ring from her bag and was recalling all the past things while looking at the ring. Yes, she was wrong but that didn't give Bade Papa a right to say bad about her mother.

She looked at the time and rushed out to find a place to stay, as it was getting late and he ordered her to be there on time.

She held the ring in her hand and went to find a descent place to stay but couldn't get one.

She almost checked all the possible places, but in vain.

She stood holding her head on the receptionist area of a hotel which was already full. She looked at the time on her watch and ran to the address given by him as he wanted her to be there on time but she was getting late.

She was about to reach there but then realised that the ring isn't with her. She got panicked as it was the last thing that was connected to Neil, and started thinking about where she might have left it.

She realised that she was holding it when she was searching for a place and the receptionist area of the last hotel, where she was standing would be a place to search for the ring.

She asked the cab driver to take her to the hotel from where he picked her up.

She was rushing towards the receptionist area of the hotel while panicking.

"Ma'am aapki ring yahi reh gayi thi", the receptionist said while passing her the ring and Aarohi took a sigh of relief while holding it.

"Thank you so much", Aarohi said and went out. She sat inside the cab and looked at the time. She was almost half an hour late and she asked the cab driver to drive as fast as he could or else the rude ASR would kill her.

Aryan was roaming all around in his cabin room, with angst look on his face.

He got tired of waiting for her and went out of the room while roaming. As he started moving towards outside of the house, Aarohi came up running and bumped into him, though they both didn't fall.

He looked up at her, who was panting heavily, with anger.

"Andhi....", he spoke up but she asked him to shut up for a moment while panting.

He folded his hands to his chest and waited for her as she was taking out her water bottle to quench her thirst.

She opened it but it was empty. Now she looked at him, standing and staring at her with serious face, and said, "Can I get some water, please?".

Her voice was unclear due to her heavy breathes.

"You are late, Ms Goenka", he said with a dramatic face.

"Look, meri galti nahi hai...mai aane hi waali thi par meri ring kho gayi thi to mai vapas use lene gayi aur fir...." She kept on blabbering and he cut her off in between and said, "Tumko kya punishment di Jaye??".

"Punishment?? School principal ho tum mere??", She said in loud voice and then looked at his face. She gulped down a lump in her throat and spoke in a very low voice, "Punishment?? School principal hai 'aap' mere?".
