Sidharth Pov:

Things will get better with time. It's absolutely true. My life took a new turn when I came to London after completing my studies. My father rendered his business and I'm working day and night for a better change. Last year, We are the in the list of top 20 fortune companies in the world and my dad is so proud of me. 

But tell me one thing, what's there to be happy? It's not a victory right. We are in the damn 14th position and my dad is happy for 14th. I want to claim the first position. It's my dream to reach it and I'm damn sure I'll take this company there. That day, I'll be proud of myself. I looked at the time, it's already ten. God!! time is moving so fast. I sighed and got up from the chair. 

I took my bag and coat as it was the time for me to leave. I went down through the elevator and my driver is already waiting for me. I hoped into the car and he took me to my home. I entered inside and I saw my mom worrying about something.

"Mom!!" I said walking towards her. I loosened my tight and collapsed next to her.

"Where is your phone Sid?" she shouted at once. Phone? Where is it? I took my phone from my pant pocket and found ten missed calls from her and dad called me twice.

"Sorry!! It was in silent mode" I said hugging her from side ways.

"You idiot, we are so worried about you and what the hell are you doing there till this time?" she asked jerking my hands.

"Mom!! don't get excited. It is not good for you. Please" I requested rubbing her back and she relaxed a bit.

"When did you came?" I heard dad's voice.

"Just now, Vicku" I said leaning back. My muscles are paining like hell. I need a hot water bath for sure.

"Why are you working so hard, Sid? It's not necessary" he said and I rolled my eyes. It's highly important for me. Work is the thing which I like the most.

"Go and eat. We need to talk" mom said looking at me. She looked so concerned .

"What do you want to talk?" I asked as I felt suspicious.

"I'll tell you. First eat" she said and dragged me to the dining hall. What's happening? She served me food and I ate it calmly.

"Between, where is Nihaar?" I asked as I didn't find him. Nihaar, he is my cousin. He came here to complete his studies as he is doing his business management course. He is like my brother maybe more than that. He turned into a good friend and mostly, he is so entertaining.

"Partying!!" dad said and I raised my eye brows. He didn't even mentioned about that. What's wrong with him?

"Dad, I think he is partying a lot. Yesterday night, he was in a party and today also. He didn't even mentioned it to me" I said and dad looked puzzled.

"I'm going to give him a lecture on this. I'm not letting him to ruin his life" I said.

"He is not ruining his life,Sid. It's just a party" mom said keeping a hand on my shoulder.

"Stop defending him, Mom" I said with a stern voice and she nodded. I completed my dinner and decided to go to my room but there something is bothering my parents and I have to find out.

"Mom!! What's bothering you?" I asked her and she looked at her lap.

"Tell me what it is?" I asked again. God!! These people are testing my patience.

"When are you going to settle?" she asked raising her head. What kind of question is that?

"I'm already settled. What's wrong with you?" I asked frowning.

"I'm not asking about your professional growth. I'm asking about your personal growth" she said and I know what's she is talking about. I inhaled deeply to control my nerves.

"When are you going to marry?" she asked getting up from her seat. She stood in front of me and folded her hands.

"Answer me, son" she said.

"You pretty well know the answer right then why the hell are you asking me again? " I asked her in return.

"The answer is always a big NO for me, Mom. I don't want to marry anyone. I'm fine like this and don't ask me this stupid question again. I'm not going to tolerate next time" I shouted and she had tears in her eyes.

"You are talking to you mother, Sidharth . Keep that in your mind" I heard Vicku's voice and then I realized that I shouted. Damn!! I thought and clenched my fist. She looked at me with red eyes and left the place. I turned towards my dad and he gave me a disappointing look. Fuck!! I hurted them.

But what can I do? They are asking me the same question from the past two years. They will not stop asking me and I will not stop my rude answers. I sighed and went to my room. I took a long shower and headed to bed. I closed my eyes and sleep consumed me.

--------------

I woke up when I felt the sun rays which are penetrating through the curtain. I went to the gym which is on next floor of the house. I started with push ups and then quads. 

"Good Morning!!" I heard a voice. I know who it was. 

"Morning, Nihaar!!" I said and he started doing his work out. I don't know what is this guy. I think he never sleeps. During nights, he parties and I don't know how can he get up this early that too without a hangover.

"Where were you last night?" I asked walking towards him.

"Partying Sid" he said counting his push ups.

"You are going out a lot, Nihaar and partying regularly is not good" I said and he sat on the floor. I sat in front of him and he lowered his head.

"But what can I do, Sid? My friends are insisting me to join them and It is highly impossible for me to say no" he said in one go. 

"Friends? Who?" I asked raising an eye brow. He is hiding something and I can sense it.

"Nihaar, are you still talking to that girl?" I asked. 

"No Sid. I'm not. You are right. She is a bitch" he said immediately.

"Good, I don't want you to fall in that love trap. It doesn't exist" I said and he nodded his head like a kid. 

"Okay, I have to go. Cary on" I said patting his shoulders and I left the place. Soon, I took a quick shower and got dressed up. I took my things and went down. I saw my mom in the dining hall. I should apologize her. I thought and made my way towards her. 

"Mom!!" I called her and she gave me a questioning look.

"Look... " I started God!! I'm very bad at apologizing. I was thinking how to say sorry but something is stopping.

"What? You are not that bad at apologizing, Sid but you turned to be the bad. You changed a lot these years. You never shouted before but these days you are losing your control. What's happening to you?" she asked and I remained silent.

"See, your Ego is stopping you for apologizing me" she stated in a crooked voice. God!! she started crying again.

"Mom!! It's not like that. I'm really sorry for my behaviour. I promise , I will not repeat that again. Please don't cry" I said dragging a chair. I sat next to her and took her hand into mine. 

"Tell me one thing, Sid. Why are you not marrying?" she asked. She started again. I don't know how to make her understand.

"You know the reason too" I said slowly and she nodded.

"But Aditi is happy with Vachan and what about you, son? Why are you still hanging on the past? Why don't you find some other girl?" she asked me taking my hand and squeezing it gently.

"I lost hope in Love. I can't love any other girl, Mom. That doesn't mean I still feel for Aditi. I'm really happy for her and she is still my best friend. The thing is Love doesn't work with me. I'm happy like this" I said getting up from the chair.

"Don't bring this topic again, Mom. I may hurt you again and I don't want that" I said and left the place. 

I got into the car and the driver started driving to my office. She just know about Aditi's story. What about the other story? I closed my eyes and a glimpse of her started to flash. She is the first one to love though I left her alone. I did a good thing for her. I never saw her again in my life and I don't want to see her in future.

Suddenly, I car was halted. I looked at the surrounding and I reached my place. I got down and went inside. I took the elevator and went to the 20th floor. I went straight into my cabin and kept my bag on the desk. I walked towards the glass window to look at the beautiful London city. I love this place. I was deep in my thoughts and I heard a door knock. 

"Come in" I said with a stern voice.

"Good Morning,Sir" my personal assistant greeted me. I turned towards her and she was checking me out. 

"Morning Miss. Sarah" I said with a smirk and she looked away. She was in a black pencil skirt with a red shirt. She is working for past two years and I'm damn sure that she is interested in me or maybe interested in my money. Who knows? I don't want to get into any thing regarding girls. I completely despise that gender. 

"What are the assignments we have?" I asked clearing the shit which was running in my brain. She narrated the list of tasks and the meetings which are scheduled for today. 

"When is the meeting?" I asked taking my seat.

"At 2:00 Pm sir" she said looking at her i pad.

"Okay, get ready with the presentation and check if there are any flaws. I need this to be perfect" I said and she nodded her head.

"You can leave now" I said and she smiled. She left the cabin and I started focusing on the files. At 2 'o clock, I attended the meeting and it went all good. I resumed my work and started doing presentations for our next project. 

I checked the time. It was 8:00 Pm. I told Sarah to leave and I decided to correct the flaws in the presentation. I took my phone and dialed home.

"Mom!!" I said as soon as I heard her voice.

"I'll be late. I have some work to do. So don't worry about me. Have your food and take rest. Bye" I said in one go and hung the call without giving a chance for her to speak. Rude? But I don't care because I have a lot of other things to do. I also informed my driver to leave as I want to ride home. Alone.

It took me a couple of hours to complete the presentation. I checked it for more time and took a deep breath. Now, I can go home and have a peaceful slumber. I got up and packed my stuff. I went to the parking lot and started to my home.

Suddenly, I heard my phone ringing. It was Nihaar. 

"Sid!! where are you?" he asked me as soon as I lifted the call. I heard a loud music from the other side. He went to a partyagain. I guess.

"Heading home" I said clearing my head. 

"Okay, please pick me up on the way. I'm in Simmons Bar" he said. What happened to his car? I don't want to ask him as I'm not in a mood to.

"Okay. I'm coming" I said and hung the call. I started driving towards the bar. I reached the place and took my phone. I don't have a strength to go inside and drag him. I'm hell tired. I dialed him and he lifted the call for the first ring.

"I'm waiting outside" I said getting down from the car. 

"Give me five minutes" he said and hung the call. I leaned on to the car's bonnet and looked the the beautiful tower bridge. Cool breeze is touching my sending chills down my spine. Suddenly, my eyes fell on a girl who was holding the railings. I couldn't see her face as her back is facing me. I don't know why but I felt familiar.

I walked towards her and she was still in her deep thoughts. What the hell is she doing here at this late hours? Suddenly, she started losing her control. God!! she will fall into the river. Is her drunk? I stood behind her and she took few steps back and hit me. She turned towards me and my heart skipped a beat. She looked at me with her eyes wide open.

"Sid!!" she said my name which is merely audible and collapsed in my arms. Wait!! what just happened? It took a me few seconds to realize. 

"Sanj!!" I said looking at her. I held her in my arms and shacked a little. What happened to her? Why is she not opening her eyes. I looked around and I saw Nihaar running towards me.

"Hey!! what happened?" he asked looking at the girl in my arms. 

"Help me. Start the car. We need to take her to the hospital" I said and scooped her up. I walked towards the car and placed her in the back seat. I sat next to her and Nihaar started the car. 

How is the Chapter? I hope you enjoyed it. Finally, Sid's Pov
