chapter 4

He is Naksh Sighania my senior and My crush ( and my future boyfriend according to everyone).

"Hy boss" I said him with a nervous smile. His gentle touch on my shoulders making me happy yet nervous through hell.

He smiled at me and released my shoulder.

He looked at me with a stern look and cross his hands across his chest and asked

"Why are you running like that?"

I came from my dreamy life and looked here and there and said to him without looking at him

"Rohan snatched my tiffin box and ran. And I ran after him to catch him. And then I collide with you...."

"So you brought something delicious that's why he ran with the box" he said lightly laughing.

I hide my face looking at ground. I feeling his gaze on me it makes me feel something everytime I looked into his eyes but I never able to looked in his eyes.

"Hmmm, it's indeed delicious" i looked up hearing Rohan's voice he stand there placing one elbow on Naksh shoulder and held tiffin in other hand, chewing food happily

"You...stop there you monkey" I said irritatingly and he stopped chewing his food.

He took tiffin in front of Naksh and said innocently "you should try these. Our Aarushi is the best cook"

I looked hesitated and he looked at me and said

"You enjoy your food I went to grab some coffee"

Rohan said ok and shrugged his shoulder and went there where we sit.

When I also going after him Naksh stopped me by saying

"Do you want some coffee?" I looked at him confusing and he rubbed his back of neck and said " I mean if you are free can we grab some coffee"?

He looked at me innocently. I wanted to go we both know we have some feeling for eachother but my life conditions doesn't allowed me to fall for anyone. I wanted to protect him so I have to neglect his feeling and repress mine too.

"Hmmm, no other time. You continue with your friends" I said him and his smile fall but he compose and nodded and bid me bye and left.

I looked at his retrieving figure and then I came back where we sit in garden.

My three best friends looking at me with hopeful eyes. I looked at them and sit beside them with a huff.

"Why you both didn't accept your feelings?" Samaira asked me with a concern. She knows I like him too but something was there which stopped me.

"Does it so obvious?" I asked them

"Obviously it's written on your faces. Even blind person told you that you like eachother" Palak said with a obvious looked.

I looked at the ground and playing with grass and said in slow voice

"No its not like that I'm just his junior that's all"

But in reality i know the reason behind which I'm not accepting the fact that he likes me. It's looking in his eyes his emotions care love for me but  I'm not for love. Love is prohibited in my life. I'm hard to love and importantly my past doesn't gave me permission to loved by someone. My dark traumatic life only gave facade in his life and i don't want to hurt him. He is so pure for that dark world of mine so it's better that I hide my feeling so I save him from hurting.

"We are with you Aaru, with your every decision but please don't neglect your feelings" Palak said me and held my hand. I looked at them I knew them they all are with me always. I gave them a smile and snatch by tiffin back from Rohan and ate it while laughing and teasing eachother. They are my comfort zone it will be those moments when I laugh wholeheartedly without any worry.

"Aaru what happened to your arm. These marks.....?" Palak asked me concerning about me to seeing the nail marks  printed by bhabhi.

"Its nothing. I accidentally scratch hard" I said tried to convince them but they look at me with "Stop your nonsense" face.

I tried to avoid there question as then our classmate Sneha came and stand in front of her with her friends. She's my classmate but I don't know why she had a rivalry with me. She always tried to make me feel less from them. Her hatred towards me is Clearly visible.

"Hello guys" Sneha said to us in which we just smile littlebit. Clearly not shown any interest.

"So Aarushi how's the plan work of your to trap our handsome senior Naksh" She said crossing her hands In front in a sarcastic tone.

Thats the only reason we hate her she only speak us to taunt us but that's my personal life and who are she to talk to me like that. I wanted to tell her a good speech but I control it and said

"Just like you tried to pull him over you"

My three best friends gave me a good smile and tried to control their laugh on my sarcasm.

It's who I am. I didn't tell how I feel if they want they told me about everything but when they tried to invade in my personal space I have them a good push.

As our day end in college I went to my tuition classes by walking. I work as a part time teacher. As I love teaching and this gave me enough money so I paid my fee and I also  have to gave some money to bhabhi. Yes I gave them as a rent.

After my working hours I'm so much tired but I have some work to be done so I waited outside for autorikshaw. When I waited there Manisha di call me like always she's my backbone. She and jiju treat me like their own child.

After that I came house and make dinner for everyone happily because I have no encounter with Tushar bhai and bhabhi and ate it and came in my room, change into night suit and read.

I came office after she went to college. I wanted to wait for her but I have important meeting to attend so I came and attend the meeting. After that I hurriedly headed to her college to see her i don't know I feel like it essential to saw her everytime. She became essential like breathing I didn't feel this feelings earlier and I can't process it so it makes me more restless.

I parked my car in front of her college and waited for her. She came smiling widely with her friends. Her smile makes me feel lite. Shes looking so cute and beautiful. She talked with her three friends one boy and two girls I have there information but I ignore that feeling not necessary. Both girls went in a car and then the boy and Aarushi talked for some minutes and then she put her hand on his shoulder and smiled talking. My grip on steering wheel became more tight turns my knuckle  white. It's fine he is just her friend nothing else but but she touch him comfortably.

I stared in anger at them some minutes later the boy went on his bike in opposite direction and Aarushi went in opposite direction. She walked to a building where she's work as a teacher. This building was from 10 minutes walking distance from her college. She went in and I waited for her outside. Why I don't know but I love to waiting for her.

Some hours later she came outside and stand outside the building waiting for autorikshaw. She looked tired. Did she ate her lunch? How she's at college how she managed all of these while her other classmates enjoyed there college life. But she's here tried to earned, but why, does her brother didn't care about her and her deeds.

She waited for autorikshaw and then she talked to someone on phone while laughing and nodded while smiling she changed her expression in lighting speed. Let no one knows how's the real she? She talked while sit in a autorikshaw and went to her home.

Which is for some days after that i became her permanent driver for lifelong. When she entered in her house I looked at that direction for some minutes and then headed to Rathore Mansion.

I came home and went to my study to complete my work and let my dinner at there because I have to attend an important meeting. The meeting went till late at night and after that I came in my room taking a good hot shower and went to bed.

But sleep was far away from me her eyes her smile her face are came in front of me. Did I really like her so much or this is just infatuation.

"Where was your salary? This is not a ashram you have to pay here for your food and room. Otherwise we rent your and your parents room to earns some money."

Priya bhabhi told me while eating her breakfast with tushar bahi. Last night I'm here to not get any chance of encounter with them but not daily my stars with me.

And yes I gave them money from my salary so they let me live here and major not rented my parents room which I love the most.

"Actually I pay my college fee and some money I save for my daily traveling so...." I said standing near the dining table with great difficulty but tushar bhai cut me between and said

"Who told you to save money and remember that you live here because we let you live otherwise you are a waste. So better to give money"

He almost shouting on me.

I flinched hearing his words. Yes right he let me live here in my parents house but for how many days he let me live I don't know. I just want to complete my study so I get a good job and ran from here and never return in this hell.

I went in my room and hurriedly ready for college wear blue jeans and white t-shirt with white sneakers. Simple sweet classy. I tied my hairs in a ponytail and wear a golden color watch. I message Rohan to pick me up because I'm so late for today's class and I don't want to miss it.

I came in living room where they both sat and I pull out some notes from my purse and gave to pari bhabhi and she happily take it. I didn't stand there to hear there any taunts and ran out of house.

Rohan wait for me after five minutes walk from my house. Why because I don't want that they misunderstood us and told him or any of my friends inappropriate. Which I don't want to. They are not worthy of this.

Those boys I hate them which stand in my path. They all said loudly about my brother something like how he drank last night what he do and how embarrassing his act how much money did he lose in gambling. They all not only speak that they latterly shouted that so I hear all of that and then answer their stupid questions.

I ignore them like always and went where Rohan waited for me.

"Hy ghost" I said him and he looked at me with bore expression.

I hoped on his bike and place my bag in between us and he start the bike towards our college.
