==============================================================================
The trio drove to the dhaba- Ishqi eagerly waited, looking out the window while Ahaan kept glancing at her- Kartik mentally thanked god for the lack of vehicles on the road, "shukar hai zyada gadiyan nahi hai warna toh bhai ne at least aaj ek ghadi ko toh tokhna tha-"
Kartik scooted over to his brother and whispered in his ear, "Bhai- humein dhaba zinda pounchna hai- road pe dekh ke chalao" he chuckled
Ahaan: Shut up Kartik- tu kab se itna observant hogaya- Apna dihaan kahi aur laga, he muttered quietly to Kartik who just smirked-
Ishqi: Kuch kaha aapne AVM?
Ahaan: Na-nahi kuch nahi- Look we're here-
Ahaan parked the car on the side of the road and the trio went in the dhaba- took a seat and ordered some food -
Ahaan: Ishqi- you look excited, have you been here before?
Ishqi: Yes! I love this place- Kuch time pehle I was in Diu for a wedding- I came here at midnight last time as well :)
Kartik: Alone?
Ishqi: Nope- with my best friend Rahul-
Ahaan: Rahul? Who's he? he asked jealously
Ishqi: Rahul- He's my best friend, we worked in the same office and coincidentally were invited to the same wedding- hum saath mein bohot masti karte the- but he moved to Canada a few months back.......I really miss him but he promised he'd come to visit me every year-
Ahaan: You miss him?
Ishqi: Yeah- Alot
Ahaan: Tell us more about you "best friend", he asked enviously
Ishqi knew Ahaan was jealous hearing about Rahul but she was enjoying his reactions so she decided to go along with it-
Ishqi: "Sure! Um- Rahul is an amazing person, I've known him for about 2-3 years now--he's handsome- smart- kind- & caring-" she said the last part while looking at Ahaan because she was describing him-
Ahaan: Woh toh mein bhi houn, he muttered under breath
Kartik was having the time of his life, he just sat back and enjoyed this new "jealous" side of his brother-
Kartik: Kuch kaha aapne bhai? he tried to control his laughter
Ahaan: Nahi kuch nahi- he said while folding his arms and sitting back in his chair-
Ishqi: Aur batao AVM? she asked teasingly
Ahaan: Nahi buss itna kaafi hai-
Ishqi and Kartik both burst into a fit of laughter at the same time- Ahaan looked at them confused, "Iss mein haans ne ki kya baat hai"
Kartik: Jealousy, Jealousy- he sang
Ahaan: Shut up Kartik-- It's not like that Ishqi, I-
Ishqi cut him off and spoke, "Arrey AVM- I know, I was purposely annoying you--"
"Food for table #3" they heard behind them
Kartik: Oh lagta hai humara khana ready hogaya hai- I'll quickly go and grab it from the counter, he said while getting up-
Ishqi scooted closer to Ahaan and whispered, "Rahul is like a brother to me" in his ear
He smiled hearing that, "Brother-like best friend- matlab puri tarah se friend-zoned---thank god"
Ishqi (inner voice):"Aww that smileee.....No matter how much I ignore the feelings in my heart- they always find a way of coming out- I know okay----I know that I have feelings for him, how can I not? He literally ticked all the points on my list, he protects me, cares for me and maybe just maybe he....loves me? Does he? Cause his actions point towards that....should I take the risk and confess first? Yes.....Maybe he'll get the courage and confess back....I need to talk to somebody about this....but who?...Sonu? No, she already has a lot of problems of her own and I don't want to cause more stress for her...Kartik--yes! Kartik will for sure help me out with this, after all he knows his brother better than everyone else.."
Kartik walked over with the food and they all enjoyed, talked, and ate-
After a while Ishqi said, "Bohot der hogayi hai- it's almost 3am- guys, lets go back now-
Kartik: Bhai- I'll drive, your finger is swollen-
Admist all of this Ahaan had forgotten about his injury- "AVM- aapko dard ho raha hoga na" she asked concerned
Ahaan: No it's okay- I can drive- I'm fine, he lied
Ishqi: Chup! Kartik tum please jaldi se ice ley aao from the counter-
Kartik did as he was told- "Ahaan- aap aab meri baat maane ge- I don't want to hear any excuses- I'll ice your hand and you're coming with me once we reach the resort, I'll bandage it.." Ishqi announced
Ahaan: Ishqi- really I'm fine-
Ishqi: I'm not asking you Ahaan-
Kartik: Ishqi yeh lo ice- he said while running towards Ishqi and Ahaan
Ishqi: Thanks- come AVM- we're both sitting in the backseat, she ordered
They all got in the car with Kartik driving and Ishqaan in the back-
Ishqi instantly grabbed Ahaan's hand and starting icing it- he admired the way she was taking care of him while Kartik looked at the duo from the rear view mirror, "Ishqi and Ahaan are meant to be and no mater what comes their way, I'm sure they are going to be together at the end of the day"
____________________________________________________________________________
Meanwhile Rhea was pacing back and forth on the terrace, she'd been waiting for Ahaan-
"Where is he" she muttered
That's when she saw a car enter the parking lot, Kartik-Ishqi-Ahaan exited the car while Rhea looked at them in anger- "Where'd they go this late??! And why were Ishqi and Ahaan sitting in the back together?! He asked me to meet him on the terrace and I've been waiting here since 2 hours and he's been spending time with Ishqi...UGHHH"
Ishqi bid adieu to Kartik and grabbed Ahaan's arm, she pulled him with her-
They both went into Ishqi's room and Ahaan sat on her bed- She got out a first aid box and carefully bandaged his finger- "It's almost done" she kept saying while he just adored the way she was blowing on his wound-
Ishqi: All done! Are you okay now Ahaan?
Ahaan: Yes- thank you for being my doctor tonight Ishqi-
"It was my pleasure" she laughed
Ahaan: I should get going--see you at breakfast, he smiled and exited her room-
He was lost in his thoughts with a huge smile on his face when he heard Rhea behind him, "Oops" he thought- He had completely forgotten that he had asked her to meet him on the terrace a couple of hours ago-
He took a deep breath and turned around, "I'm sorry Rhea- I-I had some important work to do so I couldn't come"
Rhea: So hanging out with Ishqi past midnight is considered important work for you, she questioned him
"How does she know I was with Ishqi?!" he thought baffled
Ahaan: Dekho Rhea tum galat samaj rahi ho-
Rhea: Really Ahaan?! I saw you and Ishqi exiting the same car with my own eyes and just now I saw you coming out from her room-It's almost 4am--Would you care to explain? WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON BETWEEN YOU TWO?!! she yelled
Ahaan: Rhea, it's not like that- Kartik was also with us and we all went to- to get something to eat....and I went into her room because she was bandaging my finger.....but Rhea....maybe you're right....there is something between me and Ishqi...And I know we've been dating for a long time but I've never really felt anything for you...and what I've felt for Ishqi in just 1 month is something I've never felt for anyone- She just makes me wanna be a better person.....I'm really sorry Rhea but I feel like it's better for us to break up-
Rhea: But Ahaan I've dedicated 2 years of my life to this relationship- you can't just dump me like this-
Ahaan: I'm sorry Rhea but I can't control whom I feel for- Being with Ishqi makes me happy and you're an amazing girl- you deserve someone who makes you happy and loves you endlessly as well- and tbh I know you're aware that we're more of just friends than anything beyond that-
Rhea sighed, "It's okay Ahaan- I understand- I appreciate how you told me the truth instead of giving me fake hope- we can remain friends"
Ahaan: Thank you Rhea and I'm sorry again-
Rhea faintly smiled and left for her room while Ahaan stood there like a statue still processing what had just happened- "People are supposed to be sad after breakups Ahaan- then why are you so relieved and smiling?"
"Ahaan" he heard behind him
"Ishqi" his heart answered his question-
