*Anusha Pov*

In the evening after fining the work, I got ready and took the elevator, but stilled when he entered it during the time it stopped near his floor.

He kept on looking at the watch not saying a single word while I just stared at the doors. Finally, when they were about to open, he leaned over me whispering, “You are looking beautiful with the happiness in your eyes. I am happy for the events because of which you are feeling happy whatever they are.”

“This is because of my new boyfriend.” I mumbled and took a step forward, but he held my hand slightly without forcing.

“I know you are lying, Sha. But even that lie is hurting. I deserve that, right?” asking that he released my hand and walked off in a hurry while I frowned at his back.

I shrugged off the moment and concentrated on why am I so happy. Yeah, I am finally back with my parents and Dad is also tal

    *Anusha Pov*“That will be a problem for us.” Jay stated the moment I explained to them about the call I got this morning.“Why? It is a good opportunity for us to get a brand name directly from the top people.” I pointed out and he nodded smiling.“You are right! And I also know we have full capability to win it, but it will be a problem.” He repeated again before glancing at Satvik and then at me.“What will be the problem?” Yash asked with an irritated expression.“The competition is about making an advertisement in thoughts before presenting that to the judges and make them accept it. That can be done only by two people from the four of us. And those two people for sure can’t go together for this trip. Even if just one goes and takes either you or me, the chances of winning will reduce. And the people limit is just two people. So, tell me

    *Anusha Pov*“Thank you!” I said smiling at the person standing before me or at least tried to smile while my eyes kept on moving over each one to see whether he is here yet.“Your partner is here.” The person announced and I twirled around to see him walking near to us.I know I am staring at him and people around us must be observing it too but I really want to know what happened before. What was so different with both of us that something like that happened?He smiled at me before answering the congratulations he is getting from the people and I wish I can remove that smile for making me this confused.“Hey! Come on, everyone! We all enjoyed this fest and now just dance away. The floor is looking too empty.” Someone commented and that made everyone move towards it some in pairs and some just individuals.We both just stood away while talking to whoever rea

    *Anusha Pov*“No!” I whispered to myself sitting up on the bed realizing no matter what these thoughts will not leave my head.What happened to me yesterday? I asked myself for the millionth time but still don’t have an answer for it.I gave him my answer and he accepted it too, then why am I still thinking about it? I groaned picking out the phone from the bedside table.I need to talk to someone and I just have the right person for it who will not even judge me. However, when she didn’t even pick up, I placed the phone back in its place.What happened to Kirthi now? Is she already asleep this soon? I shook my head and leaned back to the bed hoping she will call me back.Somehow remembering I have work to do, I laid down and drifted off into sleep. But then the memories returned and I ended up ignoring them before letting sleep consume me even though partially.“Mom?”

    *Anusha Pov*“So, this is what you want to talk about?” her voice brought me out of my thoughts and I stared at her confused.“But I didn’t say anything.” I pointed out.“I didn’t know what else to say to make you talk because I really need to leave this place, otherwise your brother will come up with a plan to make me stay here.” She mumbled sighing.“This is not such a bad place. You can stay here you know.” I offered, but she immediately shook her head.“No! I decided long back to never live with the people who don’t want my presence.” She explained and I sighed leaning back.“Now tell me why are you glowing? Had a good rest?” she asked, frowning at me.“Good rest? I didn’t sleep for even two hours.” I mumbled, but she continued to frown.“Then why are you glowing?” she asked,

    *Anusha Pov*“Hello?” I asked in a sleepy voice and immediately sat up hearing mom’s voice.“Anusha! I need you to be here right now.” She demanded and I frowned glancing at the clock.“Mom! It’s just eight and I am still sleeping.” I mumbled and let out a yawn.“I don’t care whether it is Sunday or not, but somehow I want to see you within half an hour.” Saying that she hung up and I stared at the phone in shock.Today is the only day I can stay away from him and she wants me to come there and see him? I mean not specifically, but he will be there, right?Wait! What if he went to his parent’s house? With that question in mind, I got ready and reached near my parent’s place not within half an hour but definitely within an hour.I walked inside and went directly near the dining area as the maid suggested to see

So, I will just go and take the shower. I am feeling too sweaty.”I stared at her even more confused thinking why is she saying that to me, but Kirthi who is standing beside her just mumbled, “Sure! I will be here.”“I will just be back.” Mom said, nodding at me and walked off, literally with a spring in her steps.“What happened to her?” I asked entering the kitchen to see Kirthi closing the dish on the stove with a lid.“What do you mean?” she asked finally turning around.“What do I mean?

You made it?” she asked, looking up to which I smiled.“I don’t think it would have been a good thing to poison you with my food when you are ill. So, I asked Kirthi to make it and I just re-heated it.” I replied, shrugging while she stared at me surprised.“What?” I asked her frowning.“If I had asked that question before, your answer would have been simple no. But now…” she trailed off.“Are you complaining that I am talking too much?” I asked and took her bowl after she finished everything.“Until when will you stay here?” she asked changing the topic.“I think your Mom will not miss me that much if I stay three more days here.” I replied leaving the room.She is asking the s

    *Satvik Pov*“I will ask her about this. Maybe she can contact this client.” I mumbled, standing up holding the client profile which Jay brought.He is thinking this can be a profitable client, but we need to change our work a little to get him as a client and I need to make sure he is before making any changes.Or just see her once again properly and talk to her today. For the past week, I am unable to see her properly with her busy and I can’t just go and talk to her after knowing she will be moving on.“But she already left.” Jay said frowning.“To her flat? I will go there.” I said, moving towards the door, but he stopped me.“No! These three days she is going out and I didn’t see her returning to the flat at all. And she is quite busy with some other personal work I think.” He commented.What? I asked in my head, frowning, not understanding

    *Satvik Pov*“This is complete stupidity!” I stated frowning at her and then at the couple before us.“And why are you so fine about this?” I asked Ansh not able to believe he is completely fine with this.“Why not? Today is the last night of me being a bachelor and I need to enjoy it, right?” Ansh said shrugging.“He is just angry that I forced him for this.” Kirthi added.“Not at all! You are completely right about this. Anu and you should stay here in her flat while Satvik and I will go out to enjoy our last night of bachelorhood and we will meet you tomorrow near the venue.” He said smiling and I still didn’t like it.“Satvik! Just for today.” Anusha whispered and I sighed, walking near the door along with Ansh.“Don’t worry Satvik, my friends are giving a party and we are going there. Seems lik
