Part 18

At RohiRat's house -

Rohit - "Vi u go ahead .. I will stop by restaurant for sometime"

Virat - "I was also thinking to go to the restaurant but not now may b later I will come in evening"
He said.

Rohit - "Okay"

Virat - "I am working from the outhouse today .. so if u need me come to home directly"                  
He said not wanting to go to office today .. he was feeling really uneasy today.

Saying this they both went their ways.

Rohit saw Mahi standing there which confused him. And what shocked him was he was in same state as yesterday.

Mahi had some tears in his eyes .. looking really tired and exhausted.

Rohit thought - "Is everything okay at his home ? What is he doing here ?"

When he came back after parking the car he saw Mahi sitting with Anushka and Ritika.

Rohit went near them and cleared his throat to get their attention.

Ritika and Anushka got up immediately. "Hey Ro u didn't tell us u were going to stop by" Ritika tried to say in normal tone.

"Just a casual visit. All okay ?" He asked to all three of them seeing them a little nervous.

Mahi - "I was just grabbing a coffee"
He lied.

Rohit thought - "He still cannot lie"

Rohit said not able to stop himself - "u still cannot lie .. so if u don't want to tell it's fine .. and anyway it doesn't matter"

Ritika - "Don't say like that Ro"
She said seeing Mahi sad already.

Mahi - "It's fine"
He said.

Anushka - "Ro hear him out once."
She said softly wanting to take a step towards progress so that everything could fall in place.

Rohit obviously couldn't deny both of them. So he sat down.

Mahi began hesitantly- "I don't how to say This .. but I am terribly sorry for whatever I did and what consequences were there because of that .. I am going to feel guilty my whole life because of that .. but please I am sorry Rohit ... I am really sorry I didn't believe u both ... I am really sorry for what pain my actions have caused you ..."
He said with moist eyes.

Rohit didn't say anything .. he just felt so emotional because this was the exact same way he pleaded Mahi to believe him but he turned his face.

Rohit stood up and said - "I got to leave"

Saying that he left from there and went to the one person who was there with him all this way apart from his wife Ofcourse.

Mahi sighed when left. Ritika told him softly - "Bhai give him some time"

Mahi - "where did he go ?"
He asked not wanting him to be in trouble.

Anushka - "He went to Vi
She said.

Ritika - "Don't worry he never goes anywhere in anger .. he ends up at home only .. he can't have us worried again specially Virat"
She said seeing him worried.

Rohit reached home and went to outhouse and found Virat sitting on the sofa staring into nothing.

He just went and hugged him tightly. Virat got startled by it but eventually hugged him back.

"Kya hua Ro ?" He asked softly.

"Nothing .. tu bata tujhe kya hua jab mai aya at that time u were staring into the wall"
He asked breaking the hug.
