Sanjana Pov:

What will you do when you saw the person who hurted you once? Till now, everything was fine but what will happen next? Why did this happen? Why did he came into my path again? What should I do ?

"Sid, he is Edwin" Nihaar words brought me back to the present. He shook his hand with my brother. 

"And she is Sanjana. The one I rescued that night" Nihaar said looking at me. Why is this happening? I turned my head towards Sid. What now? Should I greet him politely? My heart is not even willing to see his face. Something started breaking inside me. 

"Hi!!" he greeted me with a smile. Whoa! How can he smile like nothing happened? I didn't even replied him, I just gave him a fake smile hiding all my feelings. God!! I'm gonna burst out soon. 

"Hey gorgeous!! you owe me for saving you that day" Nihaar said and I turned towards him. 

"Yeah you are right. Tell me, what can I do for you, Nihaar?" I asked him trying to sound loud and strong. How can one be strong after seeing your heart break? 

"I need a gift for a girl and I'm really not good in selecting gifts. So will you please help me?" he asked giving me a pleading look. Sanj!! you are not doing this. Staying here for one more minute will kill you. It will hurt you more.

"What are you thinking? Are you up for this?" I heard his voice again. No!! God, help me please. I was trying to explain him that I'm not interested in this but a voice cut my sentence. 

 "Hey!! what is this, Nihaar? See, she is busy with her own stuff. How can you ask her help?" Sid said looking at me and I lowered my eyes. I don't have the courage to look into those dark orbs.

"But sid, girls are good at selecting gifts. We can't do it alone" Nihaar said.

"Actually Nihaar, I really want to help you but I have some people who are waiting for me. My father at home. I already got his calls and I have to go. I hope you understand my situation" I tried to explain him but I'm damn sure that I hurted him.

He gave me a smile and nodded his head. 

"No problem, gorgeous but you owe me a thing. Remember that" he said and I nodded.

"Okay, Bye now" I said and he gave me a hand shake. A pair of eyes were on me and I know the owner. I don't want to see him. 

"Edwin, I'm going to purchase this dress. I'll go and change" I said and he nodded. I left the place without even turning back. I rushed into the trail room and collapsed on the floor. 

It hurts. It hurts badly. Why is this paining me? Why am I crying? Sanj!! don't cry like an idiot. You should be strong. There is no Sid in your life. You just met a unknown stranger. He might be married and well settled. Stop thinking about him. He is a loser because he lost you. 

Now don't cry. It's your turn to move on. I told myself and wiped my tears. I changed my dress and went out. I saw Edwin paying the bill. I walked towards him and stood next to him. I still feel those eyes on me. I turned back and I saw Sid looking at me from a distance. Why is he watching me? I turned my gaze from him. 

"Shall we leave?" I asked Edwin and he looked at me with concern.

"What happened? Did you cried?" he asked and I lowered my gaze. Yeah, a lot brother but don't want to show my tears to anyone.

"I'm fine brother. Let's go to home. I want to see Papa" I said gulping my tears. My voice was merely audible to him. He took my hand into his and we both walked to the parking lot. 

Sidharth Pov:

I greeted her but she just smiled. Why is she not talking anything? I looked at for a second and it brought all my memories back. She is looking more pretty than before. I looked at her from top to bottom. 

Suddenly, Nihaar called her gorgeous. I looked at him and he was smiling. God!! what's happening here? She is gorgeous and there is nothing wrong in that but I didn't liked Nihaar addressing her gorgeous. He asked her to help her with the gift which irritated me more. How can I stay with her? I don't want her to be here. 

I looked at her , I understand that she was not interested in this. So I posed an excuse and she took care of the rest. Maybe, she is leaving because of me. I thought. She left the place without even looking at me. She went to the trail room. Nihaar and I started searching for the gift. 

Nihaar was looking at some gowns and I saw her walking towards the counter. She turned towards my side and our eyes met. Her face was in pink indicating something bad. She turned her face away and left the store. 

"Sid, how is this?" I heard Nihaar's voice. He showed me a white gown and I burst out laughing.

"Are you going to gift this? Tell me one thing, are you proposing her?" I said in between my laughs. 

"What's wrong?" he asked with a frown.

"Idiot, this is a wedding gown. Are you sure you want to give this?" I asked and he dropped the gown. He just know how to flirt with girls. Nothing else.

"Oh!! I'm done" he said feeling exhausted. I'm here to help you, brother. I thought.

"See, we can't do this thing. That's the reason why I asked her help" he said giving an annoying look. What the fuck? why is he still thinking about her?

"Why the hell are you flirting with her, Nihaar? She is a stranger to you" I said controlling my anger.

"She is stranger to you too" he said smirking. She is not a stranger for god sake. She had a thing for me. I thought. 

"She owe you nothing because I was the one who recused her. Remember that" I said.

"Uff, come on Sid. Are you interested in her? Tell me directly. I'll drop my plan" he said shocking me. I'm going to kill this idiot for sure. What the hell is he talking?

Suddenly, I heard his laughing.

"Look at your face. Are you imagining her as your wife?" he asked and I gave a punch in his stomach.

"You deserve, Nihaar. Now let's resume our shopping" I said and he chuckled. I selected a gift after a huge number of rejections from Nihaar. Seriously, this guy is eating my nerves. We paid the bill and left the store. 

"Now, let's go to The Blackfriar" Nihaar said winking. God!! I just want to crash my bed. I don't want to go to the pub. 

"I'm not interested Nihaar. If you want to go then I'll drop you there" I said changing the gear.

"Please Bhai. Come with me. I'll get bored. Please understand" he said stressing the word bhai. He only calls me bhai when he wants something from me. I nodded my head as I don't have any other option. 

We both went to the Blackfrair and I sat at the bar counter. I ordered some shots and started gulping them one after the another while Nihaar was enjoying his time with a girl. Suddenly, I heard a voice from behind. I turned back and was surprised to see her. What the hell is she doing here? God, why can't you leave me alone? I thought for few seconds. 

" Hello darling!!" Mihaka said kissing my cheek. Ah... what the fuck? I gave a fake smile and she settled next to me. 

"Why don't you go and enjoy? I'm boring" I said intentionally so that she would go away from me.

"But I like this boring man. Come let's dance" she said and I cursed myself. See, she admits that she likes you. Do you want this, Sid? I asked myself.

"No Mihaka. I'm not interested. Between, who told you that I'm here?" I asked.

"Nihaar!!" she said as expected and my blood started to boil. Why is he doing all this? I looked at him and he was giggling. I'm going to kill him for sure. I got up from my table and made my way towards Nihaar. 

"Sid, I'm sorry. She called me and asked about you. I had no other choice so I sent the location to her" he said and gave me a smile. 

"I'm going home. Bye" I said and turned back to leave.

"Sid, where are you going?" I heard Mihaka's voice. I ignored her and left the pub. I drove to my home and I saw my mom waiting for us.

"Where is Nihaar?" she asked me.

"He will come soon. Don't worry about him, mom" I said and made my way towards the stairs. 

"Sid, I need to talk to you" she said but I ignored her. I'm not interested in her talks. I know what she will talk. She will give me  some gyan about marriage and life. 

"Mom, I'm not feeling well. Postpone this talk for tomorrow. Please leave me for today" I said and went to my room. I got freshen up and crashed my bed. I tried to sleep but I couldn't. Suddenly, I heard a door knock. I know who is was. I went and opened the door and I saw Nihaar standing there looking pale.  

"What now?" I asked sternly blocking his way. He pushed me away and got into my room. He walked towards my bed and jumped onto it. Tharki, this is my room not yours. I thought. 

"Sid, I'm sorry. Please don't be like this. Forgive your cousin. He just want you to be happy" he said giving me a cute look. God!! he started his acting. 

"So you thought my happiness is with that Bubblegum. You are an idiot, Nihaar" I said.

"Bubble gum? You mean Mihaka " he said and burst out laughing. I smiled looking at him.

"But that bubble gum is interested in you, Sid" he said and I rolled my eyes.

"I hate Bubble gums" I stated giving him a deathly glare. She might be interested in me but I'm not. I just hate her. 

"But you like unconscious girls right?" he asked smiling. I know whom he is referring. I was about to kick him but his phone interrupted me. 

Sanjana Pov:

"Why are you not eating anything, Sanjana?" I heard my dad's voice. He was waiting for my answer.

"She is looking so dull, Mr. Joshi. I asked her so many times but she didn't respond" Edwin said looking at me. God!! these two men want the reason for my behaviour. What should I reply? 

"Nothing like that. I'm just thinking of you, Papa" I lied to them. 

" Sanjana, listen I'm totally healthy and nothing to worry about me. I can't see you dull baby. Please give me a heart full smile" he said smiling and I gave him a fake smile. Soon, I completed my dinner and was about to go to my room but Edwin stopped me.

"Hey, are you thinking about Nihaar?" he asked. God!! why would I think about him? Sanj, you were thinking about Sid right? mocked my brain and I released a breath.

"Nope" I replied back.

"I'm a detective,sista. You feel bad for not helping him right?" he asked and I gave a fake smile as I don't know what to reply.

"He is a good guy, Sanjana. He will understand. Meet him once and treat him. He will be okay" he suggested. Actually, he is right. I'll meet him once and treat him for my behaviour. I wanted to help him but I can't do it when Sid is there with him.

"Okay Edwin. I'll do it" I said smiling and went to my room. I took my phone and decided to call him. Sanj, look at the time. It's too late. Texting is better than calling. You text him tonight and he will reply you by tomorrow. My inner voice said and I agreed to it. 

"Hey Nihaar!! I'm sorry for today and I really feel bad for that" I typed.

"I wanna treat you for the help you did to me" I typed and kept my phone on the bedside table. I rested my head and closed my eyes. Suddenly, I heard a beep sound. I took my phone and opened it. It was a message from Nihaar.

"Hey Sanjana!! It's okay. I understand your problem. Coming to your treat, I'm looking forward for it." Is he not sleeping? 

"Okay, let's catch up tomorrow evening. Text me the location and timing. Now good night" I typed back and kept my phone aside. Soon, I drifted into sleep thinking about today's incidents. 

  How is the Chapter? I hope you enjoyed it.
