chapter 35

*The day of their trip*"Uncle, I am leaving," Manasvini said"Wait a minute... Take this jacket too" Uncle said handing over a jacket to Manasvini"Weather is usually cold around hill stations... And it's already winter season." He added."You have to call me every day... remember to cover your ears... Don't stay out too late in the cold wind." He continued instructing her."Don't worry, I'll remember that" Manasvini replied with a sweet smile."I'm going to be late... Bye-bye uncle" she said hurriedly and went out with her bag."Take care of yourself... Remember to call me" Uncle replied.When she came to a place where they are supposed to meet, she saw a really expensive car in front of her.Others are already there."Good morning, Manasvini," Aarav said"Good morning" she replied with a smile"You look great today" Aarav added."thanks" she replied"Everyone is here, we can go now," Samar said and went inside the car"I'm not going to drive," Garv said and he went inside too.Anaya took the front seat and Aarav was the one who is driving.There is only space left for one person... And not to mention, Alisha took that spot gladly. There was no space left for her. She was left out alone. Aarav was too busy talking with Anaya, so he didn't notice that. She is just standing there with her luggage, there is nothing else she can do... For a moment she regretted agreeing to come to this trip. And at the very next moment, someone grabbed her hand..."Come with me," that person saidShe didn't see his face clearly as the sun is shining brightly.He grabbed her hand and her luggage.It's Vihaan... He took her near his car."Get in," he said and opened a door for her.She has no option to refuse him, so she gets inside the car. He loaded her luggage and went inside too."Why he's being too nice... so suddenly" Manasvini was lost in her thoughts."Put your seatbelt on," Vihaan said to herbut nothing came inside her ears..."Is he planning to leave me alone... somewhere in the woods... " A thought knocked her head and without realising she started staring at him with a suspicious look in her eyes.He gave her a look, but she isn't responding, so he leaned towards her to fasten her seatbelt but stopped in the middle after seeing her face..."I won't leave you in the woods," he said out of the blue."Huh," she blinked twice...she realised she is staring at him... So she diverted her gaze immediately."If you want to go with him you can go... ""...But there is no more space left in his car,"  Vihaan said looking at the other side."..." She didn't reply to him...instead, she put her seatbelt on... And started looking out from the window."He can read minds too..." She mumbledVihaan just smiled and started driving.
