Ayesha's pov

"Come on pass it here!!" I shouted to Affan.

"No Affi here, she won't catch and then we will lose the match" Ahaan bhai said and I glared at him.

"What?? " He glared at me back.

Affan and Azlaan laughed and they started playing again.

I huffed and turned towards the mat where Ahira has been sitting from the past one hour.

'This girl!' I thought and walked towards her.

The main person for whom we planned this trip is her but instead of enjoying, she is sulking.

"You came to Mahableshwar for this?" I asked her as I sat beside her.

"I never wanted to come, you guys forced me" She said and wiped her tears.

"Don't cry" I said.

"You don't know what I lost Ayesha" She said and I looked down feeling sorry for her.

"I can understand" I whispered.

"No you can't" She said making herself stand and started walking towards the other end.

"Ahira!" I shouted.

She was literally going to the dead end and I swear I thought she was going to jump off from there. Can't help because she behaves like she'll attempt suicide any moment after she came to know that she can never become a mother again.

Everyone stopped playing .

"Ahi what are you doing?" Asked Azlaan in a worried tone while going near her.

We all gathered around her.

"Don't worry I'll not jump" She said casually and walked towards our car.

"Is she for real?" I asked huffing.

"I can't understand this girl" Affan said looking at the way his sweet sister just went.

"Talk to her Ayesha" Ahaan took part in the conversation.

"Let's go" Azlaan said and took fast steps towards the car.

"He is broken too" I said sighing.

"Of course he is" Ahaan said and left with Affan while I stood there for few minutes thinking about what to do.

We all reached the villa that Azlaan owned here and went to our respective rooms.

All this time the only person roaming in my mind was Ahira. I want to do something for her. I want to remove all these sorrows from her life but I can't.

I opened my wardrobe and took a black kurti and a matching leggings. After having a refreshing shower, I sat in the balcony enjoying my tea.

Sometimes all we want is some space for ourselves, so that we can get to know about us a little more. I know it must be sounding weird but trust me getting to know yourself is a different feeling.

Some people are so much engrossed in their worldly life that they forget to enjoy their own company.

This society has defined life as just taking birth, growing up, getting married, giving birth, getting old and then dying. Like seriously there is so much more to life than all this !!!

Well I know I must be sounding like a philosopher who has tasted every phase of her life.

But now I need to think about Ahira and her depression. How should I make her the real Ahira who was a jovial person !!!

And after thinking for about an hour, I realised the only thing I can do is talk to her. So I stood up and went to her room that was on the other end.

Ahaan's pov

After returning home, I directly went to have a nice hot shower to soothe my nerves that were tensed for my sister.

After changing into a blue shirt and black jeans, I went in the lawn where I found Affan and Azlaan already sitting there sipping their coffee.

"Hey guys" I said entering the lawn.

"Hi bro" Affan said.

"Come sit" Azlaan said.

I took a seat and then we started talking about random topics like business, sports, etc.

I saw Ayesha going towards Ahira's room. She was looking gorgeous in her black kurti and I didn't realised that I kept staring at her.

"Hi every one, where is ahira?" She asked but I was still staring her like some pervert.

'What are you doing Ahaan? She is like your sister' I scolded myself and looked down at my mobile.

But again and again my gaze went towards her and unconsciously I was taking note of her actions like how she was removing the hair that was disturbing her, her dangling earrings, milky complexion.

'Ughhh I better stop' I scolded myself again and started talking to Affan.

"Okay then I should go to her room" She announced and got up and went towards Ahira's room .

Ayesha's pov

I was going toward Ahira's room when I saw the boys sitting in lawn, so I went there hoping Ahira would be there too but no she was not.

I asked them where Ahira was and came to know that she didn't come out of her room since we came back.

But all this time Ahaan bhai was continuously staring at me which made me uncomfortable but I shrugged the thought and went to meet Ahira in her room.

I knocked the door before entering. Though she was my best friend, I know my limits.

"Come in" She said.

"Hi" I said as I entered.

"You know you don't have to knock right!" She said smiling lightly.

"Hmm" I said and took a seat on the bed.

"So?" She asked as she closed her book and sat straight.

"Which one?" I asked pointing towards the book.

"Something that I never told" She answered.

"Oh" I said.

"What you want to say Ayesha?" She asked.

"Huh?" I gave her a confused look.

"It's written on your face that you want to say something but you are hesitating" She said in a go.

"Oh yeah....Actually why are you behaving like this? You know depressed and all" I asked knowing she would burst out any time.

"You know the reason Ayshu" She said

"Yeah I know but Ahira it's you for of whom we all came here. We want you to become normal but you are too busy sulking over something which already became a past. We just want to help you overcome this phase Ahira but you are not ready to co-operate." I stated the fact.

Her expression changed into a hard one scaring me.

"You will not understand" She said and went towards the washroom.

"Why will I not?" I exclaimed and held her hand.

"Leave me Ayesha. Healing me is not your responsibility" She said bitterly.

"What do you mean it's not our responsibility? Of course it is because you are our priority. Azlaan, Ahaan and Affan everyone is worried for you but you don't even care?" I said.

"Yes I don't care neither I begged you guys to heal me. And I am not your responsibility so don't stress yourself for me. I think I am mature enough to take care of myself. So it's better you do your work rather than thinking about me" She said in anger.

Did I heard something wrong? No, definitely I heard what I heard.

"Ok then I'm sorry. Sorry for caring about you. Sorry for thinking that you are my responsibility and yeah don't worry I won't irritate you from now. Bye" I said and stormed out of the room while throwing my phone in anger Allah knows where.

"You want to go somewhere ma'am?" The driver asked.

"I want the keys" I said.

"Sorry ma'am but you don't know anything about this place" He said and my irritation level increased.

"Just do what I said  I shouted and took the keys from his hands.

I drove out of the villa to go somewhere where I can be alone.

I don't know where I was going or what was I doing but I was just driving to calm my nerves.

All of a sudden the car stopped in the middle making a screeching sound. I got out of the car and saw that the tyre was punctured.

"Fucckkkk" I cursed.

Ahaan's pov

We were still sitting in the lawn. Azlaan excused himself as he got an important call while Affan and I started talking about random things.

"So any plans of getting married?" He asked.

"Soon" I replied sipping my tea.

Rinoz's smiling face came in mind. We haven't yet confessed but somehow I have this feeling that she also loves me.

I was thinking about Rinoz when I saw Ayesha exiting Ahira's room while throwing her mobile in rage and walked outside.

"What happened to her?" I voiced my thought.

"Don't know. Must be a fight with Ahira" Affan said.

"Hm" I said and concentrated on my mobile.

But soon I heard shoutings from outside. So I went out after excusing myself and saw Ayesha getting in the car and driving away.

"Why the hell did you let her go?" I shouted at the driver as I know that she doesn't know any places here.

Without hearing his reply I got in my car and started following her but she was driving so fast that I lost the track.

Author's pov.

"Fucckkk" She cursed seeing her tyre punctured.

She searched for my mobile but remembered that she threw it in the villa itself.

She sat on the bonnet of the car thinking what to do next.

"See that diamond pendent" Said the one with helmet.

"What would be it's worth?" Another asked.

"Probably ₹50,000?" The third one said.

"₹80000 including the chain" Said the helmet head.

"Come"

"Hey beautiful why are you standing here alone?" Two men came and halted beside her on their bike.

"None of your business" She said and turned to the other side hoping they would go but they didn't.

"I think we can help you" One of them said but she didn't respond.

"Trust us we are not bad people and besides this place is not safe for women, so it's better you go home as soon as possible" The other one said.

She pondered over it and eventually told them everything.

"Actually I'm from Mumbai. We came here for a vacation. I had a fight with my friend so I came out for some air but forgot my phone at home and now the tyre got punctured" She narrared her story to the strangers like an idiot.

"I see" One of the boy said and signaled someone standing behind Ayesha.

Before she could turn and see what it was, she was held by someone from behind. She was kicking and shouting but all in vain.

On the other hand, Ahaan was searching for Ayesha when he saw a girl struggling with three men.

Once he realized it was Ayesha, he started running towards them. Seeing him come towards them, the boys snachted Ayesha's chain and ran from there taking Ayesha along with them.

"Ayesha!!" Ahaan shouted.

"Help!!!! Ahaan save me please" She cried out in fear.

Ahaan pov

"... Please" She cried out in fear.

I sat in my car and followed them slowly.

They stopped near a wooden house and I parked my car behind their bikes once they were inside.

"Leave me" I heard her shout.

I followed her voice and soon saw those boys sitting outside the room in which Ayesha was according to my guessing.

An idea popped in my mind and I made some sound with my shoes to divert their attention.

"Who is there?" One of them got up and I hid myself behind the door.

He went out shouting 'who is there' and I threw my watch at the other end which made the other two alert. Soon they both got up and went towards the other end while I stood still behind the door holding my breath.

Once they were out of the view, I went near the door and knocked it.

"Leave me please" Ayesha sobbed.

"Ayesha it's me Ahaan" I said in whisper.

"Ahaan"

"Shhh....Don't shout otherwise they will come" I said in a hushed tone.

I opened the door after finding the key and went inside.

"Come" I said and held her hand taking her out of the room.

"Why did you come alone?" I whisper yelled at her.

"Seriously Ahaan, it's not the time to yell at me" She retorted back.

She was right. Let's just get out of here and then I'll ask her.

"Come" I said and was about to move out when she stopped me by tugging my hands.

"Now what?" I asked in irritation.

"My chain, it's with them. It was my grandma's gift" She said with tears in her eyes.

"You wait here" I said and was about to go in.

"I'll also come" Saying she tagged along without waiting for my reply.

Soon we found her pendant and got out of the room.

"Hey there" I heard a person shout.

"Shit they saw us" Ayesha said and we started running away from there.
