Shreyas plopped down on the couch looking dejected. He was in his home,in his room.He stormed out of Rahul's house back then out of anger.
Now when he thinks of everything i.e whatever happened within these days, he realises that everyone including Shristi was right. It was just that he was adamant to accept it. He thought he made a right choice. Whenever anyone questioned their base of relationship he took it upon his ego and today he took that too far. He shouldn't have yelled at Shristi. She wasn't even talking about them but he was so frustrated that he spit all his anger on her.

Shreyas let out an Frustrated sigh as he ran his hand through freshly showered hair.

After fiddling with his phone for a while he dialed Nikita's no.

" Wanna Apologize now? " Was nikita's first question.

" I am really sorry. I was so angry " He sighed.

" You should apologize to her basically" Nikita scoffed.

" I am sure that Shristi has already blocked me and Samiksha wouldn't let me talk with her , Kya karu main? " He asked his best friend

" Yeh tera har baar ka hai, mess up then regret " Nikita huffed.

Shreyas stayed silent , Nikita was right. He messed up real bad this time.

" Come to the offiice tomorrow " Nikita said

" Wait, you basically want me to come to the bank?? " Shreyas let out a startled huff.

" Yeah , you don't have any other option darling! " Nikita chuckled.

" You are right, okay see you tomorrow " Shreyas said and hung up.

Shristi tossed herself for the umpteenth time. It was 2 in the midnight but sleep was far away from her body. Her mind indulged itself in a battle.
Battle between Self Respect and Compromises.
Between Principles and Friendships.
" Should I call him? "
" No why should I? He ended it "
" But he was angry and it was just a reaction of his state of mind "
" He should realise that he did mistake "
Her mind constantly jumped from one thought to other.
Eventually she drifted off to sleep.

Next day in office

" Samiksha audit them please " Shristi said handing samiksha some files.

" I hate my life " She scoffed

" Feelings are mutual " Shristi chuckled

Office works were going smoothly everyone was doing there own job when suddenly some whisperings started around the corner.

" Nikita ma'am just got a call, her friend Shreyas Iyer is coming into office " One of their colleagues said.

Samiksha eyed Shristi teasingly.

Shristi rolled her eyes. She knew that this was definitely regarding her.

" You prince Charming is coming " Samiksha whispered

" I will smack your Sammy " Shristi groaned. Samiksha chuckled looking at her annoyed face.

In the midst of their bickering , A man wearing casual black t shirt and blue monkey washed jeans came inside and whispering rose to it's best.
It was Shreyas Iyer.

Trying to find a face without making yourself look like a creeper was tough Shreyas. He tried to find her but couldn't mostly for two reasons
1.there were many faces.
2.Him standing right there was making quite a fuss. So he was taken inside the cabin by Nikita.

Shristi was observing everything , how he was trying to find her, how he was taken inside by Nikita as she expected , in no time she was summoned inside the cabin , by Nikita.

Shristi scoffed internally and went inside the cabin.

" Before you yell at me, lemme tell you he insisted coming here " Nikita said on her defense

" You could have said no to him " Shristi retorted eyeing Shreyas, who was sitting with apologetic expression on his face. Normally when he sits he oozes confidence but today he was looking like a tiny boy preparing himself for getting scolded .

"I leave you guys to resolve this but be quick please " Nikita said and left.

Shristi sighed and sat on a chair with straight face. Even though she was very angry on him , she was happy to see that he at least came in hope solving the problem.

They were sitting silently for a while. Shristi was waiting for Shreyas to speak while Shreyas was trying to collect the right words.

" I shouldn't have yelled at you, I shouldn't have said things like that " Shreyas mumbled

Shristi scoffed she wasn't in a mood to forgive him easily.

" This is my office, just because the branch manager i.e Nikita is our common friend , I can't take advantage of that. You may leave now" She said sternly

Shreyas was evidently hurt , it was clear on his face . He thought this would be easy but it wasn't.

" Aren't you gonna forgive me ever? I was angry and frustrated you know that right " He asked

" But that doesn't justify your action! You can't yell at me like that. Yesterday You said that I am jealous of relationship and you really thought  you will come today asking for forgiveness and I will forgive you???
I got some self respect too Shreyas!! " Shristi retorted.

" I am sorry. It just happened, I didn't mean any of that " Shreyas sighed sadly.

" I am busy, please leave " She said crossing her hand above her chests.

Shreyas exhaled a long breath and pulled his body from the chair  .
" I am going to Australia for series , won't you even wish me luck ? " He asked with that little hope maybe this will melt her anger.

Shristi gulped her overwhelming urge to hug him. She got up from her chair and looked straight in his eyes.

" All the best Shreyas Iyer. I hope you play well just like every other cricketer on the team. You're nothing spacial " She said
