“Bhai” Ayaan entered inside Abhimaan's room to find he was smoking, in his room's balcony.
“Hmm” He just hummed welcoming him inside.
“Cigarette bhi peene lage hai aab aap”
(Now you even started smoking)
Ayaan stood beside his elder brother and said looking at the sky.
Abhimaan smiled and looked down at his fingers which were holding the burning cigarette.
“Pyaar kiya hai usse, boht baar kaha bhi hai ki kuch bhi apne andar mat rakhna, bhala bura jo bhi hua hoga tell me. But usne toh ek pal mein hi paraya kardiya Ayaan.”
(I loved her. I have been said many times that do not keep anything inside yourself.Whatever good or bad may have happened do tell me. But she turned me into a stranger in a moment, Ayaan)
Saying Abhimaan was going to take the cigarette again between his lips when Ayaan snatched the cigarette from his hand, and threw the shit on the ashtray.
“Agar pyaar kiya hai to biswas rakhiye unpe. She loves you too.”
(If you love her, then please do trust her)
“Bas bolne se pyaar nahi hota hai Ayaan. Jatana padhta hai. Apne hisse ki khushi ke sath sath dukh bhi share karna padhta hai”
(love doesn't happen just by talking
Ayaan. It's a feeling. It means sharing your share of happiness as well as sadness.)
“You're only thinking about yourself bhai. You need to understand what she must have gone through all those years. I know we all were there with her physically. But she was alone without her family by her side. She has no one to share her pain. And the depression is not because of her parents death. It's more what we can't see but she knows. You have to ask her everything. She needs to tell you everything. Do not stay angry with her”
“I am not angry, Ayaan. I'm hurt. When I came back she didn't inform me about her identity, I knew it was my fault too. She didn't believe me when I asked for some time to disclose our marriage. She questioned my love, and now even after asking her hundreds of times she didn't even utter a word about her illness. You do not know Ayaan what I felt in these six hours. I felt as if I was dying. Without her I can't even imagine myself without her and here she doesn't even care about my feelings” Abhimaan wiped the lone tears which dared to fall down from his eyes.
“Please bhai do not stay angry. Please talk with her. She needs you the most, you have to pull her from the grief.”
Abhimaam turned to face Ayaan and placed his hand over his shoulder.
“You all are with her I know. She doesn't need me, she is enough for herself, she will survive without me”
“What about you?” Ayaan held Abhimaan's hand and looked at his red eyes.
“What about me? I'll always be with her no matter if she wants or not”
“Don't do this bhai. You both need to talk and solve the matter. Nothing is going to sort out like this”
“Ayaan go and sleep, you must be tired” Abhimaan turned on his back and looked at the cloudy sky again.
“Before doing anything, just think once about Rehana.” Ayaan left Abhimaan to deal with his emotions.
~♥~
While Rehana was getting impatient to see him once. He didn't come back to her room after everyone left, only Ishani argued to stay with her the night.
“Di”
“Hmm”
“Let's sleep” Ishani said cutely, as the light was on and she couldn't sleep with the lights on.
Rehana nodded her head and got up to switch off the lights and lay back beside Ishani.
Her mind was stuck with the image of her husband, left the moment she finished the food.
With a heavy heart and a pained head she slept.
~♥~
Three days passed by in a jiff. Abhimaan didn't come face to face with Rehana. He was trying hard to avoid any interaction with Rehana and she was getting restless.
Divya also went on the excursion but at first she refused to come.
And here Rehana was again all alone , even being with everyone.
She was sitting with Samaira and Dev, who were telling her about Divya's birth story but she was lost.
Dev noticed her gloomy face at the mention of Abhimaan and nudged His wife.
“Rehana” Samaira shook Rehana by her shoulder and she blinked her eyes.
“Are you okay?”
“Chachi.. When is Divya coming back?”
“Do not ask me about her. At first she refused to go because the excursion is about 10 days and now don't know what had gotten into her that she agreed to go” Samaira frowned
“She is angry with me,” Rehana smiled, lowering her head.
“She will be okay after coming back. She can't stay angry with anyone for long don't worry” Dev patted Rehana's head who nodded and raised her head to find Abhimaan was entering the hall.
“Do the fuck what you want. Do not call me for this silly reasons” They heard Abhimaan's angry irritating voice as he was talking with someone over the call. And the elder couple duo share a look.
“It's been happening for the last three days.” Dev informed and signed.
Rehana could sense he was worried, tensed, frustrated, angry and also hurt because of her.
She needs to do something. … ..
~♥~
“What happened suddenly that you decided to come here?” Raunak asked, pulling her close to himself and her back touched his chest.
Divya took deep breaths and tightened her hold around his arms.
“Nothing” She replied, closing her eyes and Raunak signed.
“It's okay to feel hurt but it's not okay to run away from the person you loved the most”
“She should have informed me earlier, Raunak.” Divya turned towards him and continued “you know even I proposed the idea of marry them off, she didn't even tell me then”
Raunak was going to say something but was cut off by her...
“Maine to usse kabhi kuch nhi chupaya, phir usne itni badi baat mujhse kaise chupa liya?”
(I never hide anything from her. Then how could she?)
“Divya it's okay… just accept what happened and talk to her. This time she needs you” Raunak cupped her cheeks and she tried to look away but he made her raise her lashes and look at him.
“Bhaiya also didn't tell me. That hurts Raunak. You know I hate lies, I hate this hide and seek. I fucking hate this all feeling of being hurt by the one I love the most” At the end her voice cracked and Raunak hugged her.
He could feel she was sobbing silently in his embrace.
A fear erupted on Raunak's hurt hearing Divya.
What will happen when she gets to know about him? And his real motive?
Damn he loves her. He can't hurt her but he needs to take revenge from her family. And hurting her family will eventually hurt her.
Feeling frustrated by these thoughts he buried his head in her long hair, whose tantalising scent distracted his mind from all those thoughts.

“I'm so excited to go to Gulmarg” Hiya said excitedly to Vihaan as they met after the college at a cafe.
“That's great. Enjoy to the fullest”
As soon as the words came out from Vihaan's mouth she looked at him confusingly with a frown.
“What? You were not aware of this outing?”
“Me? No. How can I? You just told me”
“What the fuck?” She slammed her palm on the table and Vihaan looked at her with big eyes.
“Hiya language”
“Do hell with your language… Tell me seriously… you're not aware about this?” Hiya asked leaning into the table
“No..”
“Maa didn't tell you?”
“Maa? No.”
“Damn.. I think she forgot to tell you that you and maa are also going with us.” Hiya said leaning back to the chair with a smile and Vihaan got up hearing her, shockingly.
“What?”
“Yes… give an application to the department you're also going with us. It's a family trip and this will lighten up Rehana's mood because her soul sister is there.”
“1 minute.. I remember something”
“What?”
“Maa was saying something yesternight, but I was engrossed in listening to songs with airpods and checking the exam copies.” Vihaan rubbed his forehead with the thumb and forefinger while Hiya looked at the man unbelievably.
“You are impossible” Hiya mumbled and looked down to hide her smile as she was only playing with him. Because Meera still was unaware about the trip. Samaira will call her in the evening to inform.
