Aashna's POV:
"Achha atleast lemme know you are okay?" I said and even thought there was no reply, i was hoping that he was okay, i had never seen him like this, what do i do? I sat outside his door
"Achha atleast answer in yes or no? Just two questions" i said
"Hmm" i heard a small reply, even he was sitting beside the door that means and he was okay. My heart felt a relief as if a huge stone with lifted off my chest by just hearing that small hum.
"Are you okay?" I asked and for a few seconds i again got no reply
"yes" a feeble voice said and i took a sigh of relief but then i felt sad because i knew he wasnt okay
"Have you had anything since morning?" I asked "no" came the response a little while after
What's the problem with people getting angry and taking out there anger on food! I never got this!
"Okay i am getting you food okay and you have to open the door" i said and again there was no response the two questions were over! Adamant much!
I go to the kitchen and look for some food, i saw some pizza that was kept from yesterday so I quickly microwave it and go to his room
"Sanket! Here have your food" i said and there was no response
"Look things don't work like this, at least let me know whats wrong? Maybe i can help" i said
"No you cant help me" he shouts angrily making me flinch
"I am not leaving until you open the door, open the door sanket please" i said again sternly
I sat there for like half and hour but the door didn't open, i was losing my patience but i had to stay calm, i got a text from Rohan saying if i need any help and i told him everything is okay, he can do his work, Thats when a plan struck me
"Fine if you aint opening the door right now, i am quitting MAD5 forever" i said angrily and got up
"I am giving you a last chance, enough is enough, since so long i am asking you calmly that let me in but you stubborn ass, now i count till five and if you dont open the door then i am leaving this room, this band and breaking our friendship" i said angrily
I stepped a Little back to let him feel that i have left, for like two minutes the door didnt open and i was praying for him to open the door and after a while the door finally opened and i went in
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" I said "you know everyone is so worried" and stopped suddenly
I looked at him, he looked broken, vulnerable, sad! Oh poor soul
"Sanket" i said in a soft voice and he didn't reply he was just looking down, i made him sit on the bed and sat next to him
"Whats wrong?" I said "you're not the one who feels guilty after a fight" i tried to cheer him up, i kept my hand on his hands
"Do you want to share anything?" I asked so that he would talk to me and stop keeping things within him
"No i dont, because whenever i do, people leave, you will too, like you said! And i dont want to beg people to stay" he said angrily and got up from the bed
"Achha okay, i am sorry for saying that but you wont open the door, what other option did i have? I am sorry, i won't leave you i promise" i said and tried to calm him down and made him sit again on the bed
"Look at me" i said and he looked up, eyes red looking as if they want to cry but sanket isn't allowing them to
"Tell me what happened! I also tell you, thats what friends are for" i said
"Nothing, its just i wish i could have the suspension on three weekdays! Why do they consider weekend?" He said and again it got me confused
"But why so?" I asked
"Because i dont like to spend much time with my family" he said and i was shocked
"Why? They love you" i said
"It's a differently showed reality that you have seen" he said
"Okay, you can spend the days at my house then?" I asked "dont just like be this hard on yourself" i said simply
"No i can manage them, cant leave Divya alone during weekends" he said and packed his bags with books
"Okay sit here and have your food, i will pack the books" i said as i didnt wanna get into his privacy
He just gave me a weak smile! Its hard for boys to express themselves, the society has brought them up in such a way, i packed his books while he just ate a slice of pizza
"Eat more na" i insisted since he hadn't had anything since morning
"No no i am full" he said and i smiled
"Hey you and divya can come at my house, we can study" i said and he smiled again
"Ya okay" he said
"Sanket, erm why did you fight with karan?" I asked
"Umm nothing just like that" he said and he was lying
"Okay if you dont wanna tell" i said not wanting to push him to open up to me
"But hey we are friends, you cant just take it all on yourself okay" i said and tried to comfort him
"Can you stay here with me?" He asked again and i sat there next to him, and he held my hand
"I dont know why but you keep a lot within you, maybe one day you will have your trust in me to tell me everything, i wanna know you more sanket, i cant see you like this, i love you sanket!" My brain said to me
"WAIT WHAT! No no no stop that right there, i cant just think that!" I started to have that arguement with my brain
"dont you like his smile, his hugs, his care for you! Dont you get sad when he ignores you and dont you like it when he calls you nerd" my brain said
Its correct i do like it all! But does it mean that i love him? I like him but love is way too far
I look at sanket who fell asleep and was looking like a baby, i carefully removed my hand and tried to clean up his room thats when his phone buzzed and i didnt look but because it kept buzzing i had to take a peek
"Bhai, dad is really angry, try no to come home for two days. It wouldn't end well tomorrow or else" it was Divya's message
Ohh so he is scared of his dad and thats why the weekend thing! After a while i sat next to him, i decided that since even i was going home, i would visit him to check if he is okay
It was around 6 pm and i woke sanket up
"Good morning" i said laughed a little
"Hmmm" he said as he stretched
"So i will see you then" i said sadly and i hugged him, it was like a really long hug, i could feel a few teardrops fall and i could feel myself crying
"Why are you crying?" He said as he wiped my tears
"Nothing just sad" i said and hugged him again, i wish he wouldn't go
"Oh god, i am just going for three days and not forever" he laughed
"And we are meeting like tomorrow" he tried to cheer me
"Ya" i said and he took his bag
"Wait" i said "i was planning to go home as well, if i leave with you today! Can you drop me home?" I said and he smiled
"See my charm, everyone wants to stay with me" he said and i hit him playfully
We both agree on the plan and leave for home
