chapter 42

"So where are we going today?" "...I mean weather is great," Garv saidThey all gather together for breakfast and discuss their plans for today..."...Let's go back instead" Aarav suggested"Why?" Samar and Garv said together."We came here just to go back... Great" Alisha addedVihaan and Manasvini were sitting there without taking part in AJs' conversation. Neither Vihaan insisted on anything nor Manasvini... Vihaan was having his breakfast without paying much attention to others and Manasvini... She was watching all his(Vihaan's) actions... Trying to understand him... "She needs rest... It's not comfortable here for her" Aarav tried to show his concern towards her."She can stay here," Garv said"I am not going to leave her alone" Aarav replied."Let her decide then" Samar proposedAnd they all started staring at her to get their answer...Not to mention, her eyes were fixed secretly on a certain someone with a spoon in her hand and weird expressions on her face..."He is so strange..." Those words escaped from her mouth without her realising"What did you say?" Alisha asked confusingly"Huh?" Manasvini came out of her thoughts. She found them all staring at her face.She cleaned up her mouth, as she thought there is something on her face... But that's not the case. She just blankly returned their gazes."We want to go out today...  you wanna join us or stay here?" Samar questionedVihaan finished his breakfast first, he stood up to go back to his room..."There is a place I want to go" Manasvini replied quickly when she saw him leaving the dining table. She wanted to see his reaction...After hearing her, as a reflection, Vihaan came back with a glass of water and seated on his chair..."But your ankle... It hasn't recovered yet" Manasvini replied looking at Aarav."Where is this place, you want to go...?""I can manage... Don't worry about it" Aarav tried to play it cool(He wasn't injured.)"A temple... I found it yesterday... when I was searching for a place," she replied"Ohh that temple... ""... There is a proper way to get there," Aarav said "That's near the cave," Manasvini said"Really...We were that close to the main road... I didn't know about it..." Aarav replied"So it's decided. We are going there" Aarav declared.After an hour they all gather outside the villa and were ready to go...This time Vihaan took the lead... He was a step ahead of everybody."you are coming with me" He grabbed her hand and was taking her with him... When they reached in front of his carVihaan opened the door for Manasvini and...Aarav closed it "Why are you taking her?"Vihaan glared at him "You aren't going to drive anyway...""... With your sprained ankle" Vihaan answered with a fake smile and opened a door for her again.Aarav has no idea what to say next, he was not so great with words... So he was glued to his place.When Manasvini got inside Vihaan closed the door and get on the driver's seat."Then I am coming with you too..." "I am not going to drive anyway... I sprained my ankle" Aarav smirked and repeated what Vihaan said to him a moment ago.When he tried to open the back door of Vihaan's car... "There is no space for you" Vihaan locked all the doors... There was something that made Aarav angrier... Vihaan smiled in return for Aarav's smirk... "I won't get a chance to talk to him; if I get off now" a thought knocked on her mind. She looked at Vihaan and then Aarav "Sorry" she muttered... Aarav did not notice that though...And then they (Vihaan and Manasvini) drove away.Aarav came back to his car... but the scene there was like 'salt in his wounds...'There was only a driver's seat left for him...
