Chapter 27
"It's you Riddhama, I LIKE YOU!!!" He said.
Hearing this Riddhama's eyes popped out. She was shocked, she never even in her dreams thought that this day will come. Not even once she thought him as more than friend. She didn't even have any words. She felt uncomfortable in that situation.
One person was passing by, he heard their conversation and then he started sprinting.
He continued saying " Yes I like you!! Not from today or yesterday but from the day I saw you. Earlier I didn't knew what was this feeling . As I grew up I learned what these feelings are. I tried to get rid of these feelings but they never left me."
Riddhama interrupted him and said "Kabir... I..I..." words were not coming out of her mouth.
Kabir interrupted her and said "I know Riddhama what will be your answer and I still wanna know that because I wanna move on in my life but these feelings are not letting me do that. Once I hear your rejection I will be free. I know you have never seen anyone with you other than Vansh. Nobody can take his place in your life. I know that but my stupid heart doesn't want to understand that. He wants to do "what he wants", I am just his puppet. He never listens to me. And now I am sick of explaining him again and again. Your rejection will be a wake up call to him. And then I can finally move on. I never ever thought that I will confess my feelings. Vansh is like brother to me. When you were together I never think of you in a wrong way. Now that you guys are not together my heart started wavering even though I know that you will be back together. That's why I'm confessing it now, before you get back together. If I confessed you when you were back together then it will be a betrayal to Vansh and I don't want that. This is also a kind of betrayal. I am also going to apologize to him afterwards. You can say anything you want without hesitating. I know what you are going to say and I am also mentally prepared. I just want to hear it from your mouth that's it." He finished and looked at Riddhama.
Before starting, Riddhama took a heavy breath " Kabir, Maine tumhe ya kisi bhi aur ko us nazar se kabhi bhi nahi dekha. I always think of you as my friend. Vansh is the only one that I love and want to spent my whole life with him. He is the only one for me." She paused and looked at him, He looked sad even though he knew what was going to come. She continued saying " I'm sorry Kabir, If I ever made you feel like I'm interested in you Or led you on. I never wanted to make you fall for me. If you think that I mislead you in any way then genuinely I am really SORRY." By the end of sentence, she was in tear. She was feeling guilty.
She finished and Kabir started talking " Riddhama First of all relax!! Don't overthink. And No you didn't led me on anything. It was your simplicity that attracted me. You didn't even try but still I fall for you. You shouldn't apologize to me. It's not anyone's fault. I never intend to fall for you, It just happened without my knowledge." She nodded and turned to leave. He called her "Riddhama", she turned and faced him. He said " I never wanted to ruin our friendship that why I didn't bother to tell you my feelings. Now that I have expressed it, I hope it didn't ruined our friendship. I don't want to lose a good friend like you." She smiled and nodded.
That's when out of nowhere Vansh pounced at Kabir and grabbed his collar. He angrily said "How dare you Kabir.... I though of you as my brother and you did this behind my back. You eyed my GIRL knowing how much she mean to me!!! How much I love her. The most important bro code is that You shold never flirt with you're friend's Love, Partner or even Crush. And here you dare to propose her. You just backstabbed me by doing this. I knew you liked her but didn't expect that you would directly propose her."
Riddhama was trying to control him "Vansh wait.... Vansh " and On the other side Kabir was also trying to explain him "Vansh, Let me explain...." but he didn't want to listen to both of them. He could only see Red. He was soo angry that He lifted his fist to punch Kabir in his face. But before his fist touched Kabir's jaw he stopped his fist saying " If it was someone else I would have killed him but I respect our bond, our friendship even if you forget about it." Saying this he pushed Kabir by the hand which was holding his collar. Kabir lost his balance, he took two steps back and balanced himself.
Vansh saw the flower bouquet in Riddhama's hand and misunderstood it as flowers given by Kabir. He snatched it from her hand and threw it. She was so hurt by his action, with soo much Love she picked those flowers for Vansh.
Vansh after throwing the bouquet, he looked at Riddhama and said "Let's go". Riddhama was scared of Vansh and his anger. She didn't know what to do. She just stood there looking at Vansh. He got angry by her reaction,he grabbed her wrist. Riddhama winced in pain, as he was holding her wrist tightly. Kabir saw it, guilt took over him. He thought "it's all because of me". He said "Vansh you are angry on me, so you should vent your anger on me and not on her. Don't drag her in this. Look at her, you are hurting her and she looks scared. You are not in your right mind, till your anger cools down please leave her alone...". But Vansh was in no mood to listen to anybody. He roared at him " You don't have any right to speak in between us.." Kabir was about to say something but Riddhama assured him through her eyes that she was okay. He didn't say anything further. Vansh dragged her with him.
They both reached the parking. He was silent the whole time. He started his bike and gestured her to sit. She sat behind him and they both left for their home. He was silent the whole ride and she was thinking how he came to know...
Flashback
Vansh was sitting in the cafeteria. He saw Chotu the canteen worker running towards him. After reaching where Vansh was Chotu stopped. He was breathing heavily due to running. Vansh asked him "Chotu kya hua?" and offered him water. He took the water and drank it in one go and then said even though grasping for air "Vansh bhaiya..wohh... Riddhama bhabhi na..." Hearing Riddhama's name, Vansh got tensed and asked "Riddhama, kya hua thik se bata".
Chotu answered him "woh na...woh.. Kabir bhaiyya hai na... woh ...Riddhama bhabhi ko propise kar rahe the bahar" On which Vansh instantly said "Kyaa? Chotu tune kuch galat suna hoga.." not believing him. On which Chotu instantly said "Nahi bhaiyya, maine khud apne kano se suna hai..." Hearing it Vansh still didn't believe him and thought to check it himself.
He collected all his stuff and told his friends that he is going home. He went where Chotu told him,he saw them. He then saw both Riddhama and Kabir smiling at each other. He also saw flowers in her hand. Seeing them he lost all his cool. He didn't think anything and pounced on Kabir.
End of flashback
When they both reached their house. He parked his bike. She was waiting for him outside the parking. When he came out and saw her waiting. He stopped infront of her putting his hands in his pocket. He was still angry on everything that has happened. She asked him "What was that?". He asked her "What?" She took a breath of relief and asked him calmly "You shouldn't have behaved like that.." "Like what" he asked. She said "We could have talked calmly earlier" That was the last straw of his patience. He said "To main kya haath pe haath dhare baithta and see him stealing you from me". Now she was also getting angry on him. She said "Nobody is stealing me from you... Why can't you trust me? Trust is the most important thing in a relationship. You are soo insecure. Instead of trusting me you do all the unnecessary things.." He shouted saying "Then what you do for my insecurities? Nothing.... You do nothing.... Just loving isn't enough you also have to show it... Reassure me... It's feels nice when someone constantly reminds you of how much you mean to them... how much they love you.. how they never want to loose you. It feels like a big weight of certainty has been lifted off your shoulders and you can breathe again. Here I'm the only one showing my love again and again to you..." They both have share an eye lock. Tear slipped from her eyes and she came out of the trance. She turned around and rubbed her eyes from the back of her hand. She went inside, he stood there and watch her go.
(Imagine song in background: Tu hi hai from the movie half girlfriend)
Karta nahi kyun tu mujhpe yaqeen
Kyun mere dil ki tu sunta nahi
Hmm…
Tere bagair kitna tanha sa hoon
Aalam yeh dil ka tu samjhe kabhi
Hai pataa yeh tujhe
Na jee sakunga bin tere
Phir bhi kyun mujhse judaa… Tu…
Tu hi hai
Tu hi toh hai
Mera junoon
Tu hi hai
Tu hi toh hai
Dil ka sukoon
Tu hai jiske bina
Main jee na sakun
She went in her bedroom feeling sad. She was hurt by his words. She fall on her bed. She didn't remember falling asleep.
When she woke up, she contemplate. She thought to herself "What he is saying is somewhat true. It is not like I don't love or assures him. We both have different love languages. His love language is physical touch like holding hands,cuddling,hugging and telling me how much he loves me. Where as my love language is making food for him, and letting him hug, cuddle. It's not like it's his fault or mine. We have different personalities he is extrovert and I'm introverted. From now on, I'll change and I'll try to do what he wants me to do."
She got up washed her face and went to kitchen. She wanted to talk things out with him, tell him how much she loves her and forgive her even though she didn't do anything. She baked cookies as a bribe for him. She was smiling thinking about his reaction when she will confess her love him. She took the cookies tray and left.
Her Maa and Baba was sitting in the living room watching T.V. She insisted them to try her cookies. They tested it and even complemented her. That's when Vansh descended down from stair and saw her. He still ignored her and tried to leave. When he took a step, his mother called him "Vansh, try these cookies. It is amazing.." Vansh said "I don't feel like eating anything. I'm going out and I'll be late" not even once looking at her. He totally ignored her and left. He again hurted her. She faked her smile and left from there.
She directly went in her bedroom and jumped on her bed crying her heart out. She said "Why is he doing this? Why is he angry on me? Why? It's not like I have done something or betrayed him....." She cried herself to sleep.
