"Jayen please"

Shehnaaz plead standing little far from bed with eyes on Sidharth who was leaned into headboard with smirk that clearly says no

"Koi agayega please jayen na" She continued pleading him with worry in her eyes. Her parents aren't as chill as his, they will definitely throw fit about it even if they are kinda destined to married, especially her father

"Koi nahi arahi meri jaan relax jao lock krke ayo darwaza phely" He tells her and it hits her that door isn't lock anyone could walk in, she rushed towards door to lock it which made Sidharth to chuckle to her behaviour

"Apko yahan kyun sona hai apne ghar jayen na" She pressed her back again door as she turn to look at him again now annoyed

"Agar mein ghar gaya aur apne room mein soya toh mujhe tumhari yaad ayegi phir mujhe neend nahi ayegi so isn't it better to just sleep here with you" He smiled at her innocently. She let out annoyed sigh looking away not getting his logic but she has to admit his word did create various butterflies in her stomach

"Idhar ayo" He called sitting straight. She hesitated but did as he asked her to and made her way towards him "Baitho" He eyes empty space beside him, she did sit down

She got startled when he suddenly grabbed her face between his fingers and turn it to examine her cheek if slap mark was still there, mark was gone within hours. She blushed when he leaned down to place gentle kiss on her cheek before letting go of her face. She looked at him through her lashes with visible redness around her cheeks

"M-mujhe parhna hai" She stands up immediately pointing at her books those were spread on study table

"Mujhe kuch batana hai tumhe" Sidharth hold her hand before she could walk

"Kya?" She asked

"Hum teeno ko kal university se expel krdege because of video so we won't be there with you but if someone bothers you or maham, you will call me right away" He said even tho he's sure now no one will dare to do anything as everyone knows who she is plus he has his football team members looking out for maham and Sana both

"Ap nahi honge?" He noticed heaviness in his voice "Zain bhaijaan aur Aryaan bhi nahi hum akele honge?" Her voice dropped low as she sits back at her place beside him

"We are just call away jaan" He cupped her face. He noticed moist in her eyes

"Sana you won't dare to cry I am warning you" He threatened suddenly changing his expression from calm to stern with slightest panic in his eyes. He hates when she cry and he never want her cry because of him or with him

"Mujhe ap logo ke bina nahi jana" She shook her head getting closer him

"C-can't you do anything?" Her voice cracked, she tried not to cry. He looks at her silently for seconds, only way to not get expelled was to apologise in front of cameras that will totally ruin their reputation but will he do it for her if that means she won't cry and be happy? Yes he will.

"Things I would do for you Sana" He lock eyes with her before kissing on her head and stands up from bed making her confuse

"Kahan jarahe ho ap?" She asked suddenly

"See you on Monday in university jaan" His said before making his way out of her room. Wasn't he gonna sleep here? She thought and sighed in relief that he changed his mind and also she's sure he won't expelled if he says he's gonna see her. He keeps his words

    Sidharth made his way towards study of his uncle and met with Zain on way who rolled his eyes at him and start ranting about how much it hurts him that he left him behind

"Tumhe jahanum mein jagha bhi nahi milegi-"

"We will apologise" He cut him off after deep sigh. Zain frown

"To them no way bro we don't do apologies" Zain shook his head with stubbornness "Getting expelled better hai yaar socho ab hume koi assignment ka tension nahi lena aur do hafto mein uncle aur baba hume company join krne ke liye bhi keh denge so it's better to leave college than apologise to some bully" Zain finished

"Apna suit nikal ke rakhna for press conference" Sidharth didn't wait for his answer before leaving from there

"What! Why? What changed!" Zain shouted going after him who was going towards his father's study

   Mr zoraiz was sitting behind desk when both young man barged into his study without knock. He looked annoyed at lack of manners and sudden disturbance, before he could even snap at them Sidharth open his mouth to speak

"Hum press conference karenge so talk with university board members about us not getting expelled" Sidharth said taking man by surprise. Zain rolled his eyes when his father's expressions changed from annoyed to delighted

"Great mein abhi baat krta hoon mujhe pata tha you will act smartly. Good job" He gives them thumbs up before picking up his phone with smile

"What the actual fuck sidharth hum maafi kyun mange ge!" Zain demanded in hush voice avoiding conversation from his father

"Sana abhi tak daari hui hai she was talking about not going if we won't go apology can't do more damage log bhool jayenge kuch dino mein" Sidharth told him which seems to make Zain's facial expressions relax

"My image!" Zain winced. Sidharth didn't say anything since he didn't expect any sensible reaction from him anyways

Aryaan: Yeh uncle zoraiz mujhe thumbs up wale emoji kyun bhej rahe hain?

   Aryaan texted Zain who showed phone's screen to Sidharth with wicked smile before typing back reply immediately. Zoraiz was infact typing on his phone as well with smile

    Zain walked out of there leaving his father and Sidharth behind. He smiled looking down at phone, aryaan's reaction after knowing they will apologise. He walked outside and came across maham getting out of ilyaar's car in parking. He shut down phone and kept in pocket of varsity jacket

"Oye time dekho 11 baj rahe hain" He raise his voice looking at ilyaar. Maham glanced at him with surprise as she didn't expect him to be home this early

"She's my fiancé" Ilyaar smiled

"Biwi toh nahi haina?" Zain sarcastically asked

"Matter of time before she will be" Ilyaar shrugs which irked Zain

"Agar dubara itni late drop kiya maham ko fiancé bhi nahi rahegi" He threatened

"Chill-"

"Niklo" He said rudely

"Zain?" Maham questioned in disbelief

"Dude what's wrong problem with you?" Ilyaar asked with frown because Zain don't usually behave like this he's most likely to be chill

"You are my problem now fuck off" He said

"Are-"

"Ilyaar jao ap please" Maham requested, ilyaar sighed nodding his head and getting inside car before leaving

"You can't speak to him like that he's my fiancé" Maham said. He stared at her with mix emotions inside him

"Mein kisi se bhi kese bhi baat kar sakta hoon don't tell me what I can do or not" He snapped at her

"Are you sure ap kisi se kese bhi baat kar sakhte hain? Don't fool yourself you can't do that and you know why because you are coward" She snapped back at him

"Aren't you also one?" He asked

"Mein he kyun himat karu huh jab feeling dono tarf se hain? If you will take step so will I agar nahi lu than I'm coward" He said and walked back inside leaving maham into deep thinking

   Aryaan clears his throat who heard half of conversation, well he didn't mean to ears-drop but they were loud and he was on his way to mr zoraiz house as he called for them to tell them what they have to say tomorrow in press conference. Maham turn to look at him who got started by his presence, he offer her small smile

"Muma and papa will surely understand maham I suggest you talk with them and before it come clean with ilyaar" He suggested

   Maham didn't say anything just left from there which made Aryaan sigh and made his way inside. Amna called his name who was watching television in living room. He shut his eyes, he has been avoiding her for past days like before

"Hey apne mere msg nahi parhe?" She asked

"Busy hoon mein" He replied

  She has noticed change of behaviour in him also he doesn't smile at her like before, he acts like they haven't been hanging out lately together

"Is it about kiss?" She asked in shush voice. Aryaan let out frustration gasp. There was heat of moment when they shared kiss when they went for long drive in his car late night

"It never happened amna" He said coldly gaslighting her. She stared at him "Just don't talk about it anymore" He finished

"Mujhe laga we like each other" there was hurt in his eyes and he knew this was bound to happen one day ever since he approached her

"Tum bhut choti ho mujhse" He said

"Toh?" Her voice cracked "You played with my feelings all this time just to say tum choti ho mujhe amna?" She asked

"I didn't promise anything" He tried to defend himself

"Apko pata tha mujhe ap pasand ho and your these sweet gesture encouraged that liking now that I have started to love you ap ese behave kar rahe ho" She couldn't stop tears from spilling down

"Don't fall in love with people like me" He grew closer her to wipe her tears

"Why not?" She asked

"I will take you to places and kiss you in every beautiful place so that you can never return to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth, I'll destroy you in beautiful way possible for someone else because I know you can't be mine and when I'll leave you will finally understand why storms are named after people" He stated deeply staring into his eyes. She hates literature and twisted words of poetry but his words made her love him and hate him both at same time

"Tum abhi choti ho bhool jaogi ke kabhi mujhse pyaar bhi kiya tha and it's better for both of us" He gave her last look before leaving

   "You don't have to apologise university isn't big deal especially when you have to handle family business at end" Ahmed looked at his son. They all were in meeting room of there office and media wasn't allowed in yet

"It's not big deal" Sidharth assured him before looking at Mr khan who was looking back at him while his PA was whispering something in his ear

"Meri ek condition hai sara will slap back Zain there is noway one who has slapped daughter getting away this easily" Mr khan demanded

"Dad it's alright" Rabia touched his elbow gently who was dressed in black dress and brown long overcoat. Sara rolled her eyes and looked at Zain who winked at her

"Your daughter is into that kind of stuff mr khan she actually loved it" Zain commented smugly. Aryaan gasp while sara felt embarrassed in room full of elder men

"Zain pasha!" Mr zoraiz glares at her son. Mr khan's blood was boiling

"What about when your daughter slapped Shehnaaz?" Sidharth asked calmly gaining attention of everyone

"Koi witness nahi hai!" Mr khan shouted

"Apki beti ne khud confess kiya hai why do we even need witness" Sidharth said silencing him and looked at his daughter who looked down "Yeh kabhi mat sochna ke yeh yahan per khatam hojayega, this will follow your daughter like shadow I wonder who would want to hire bully? More importantly who will marry a bully?" Sidharth asked

"No one obliviously!" Aryaan said

"You bra-"

"Sir it's time" Their Lawyer spoke

"Let them in" Mr Ahmed nodded

    Sidharth kept cigarette between his lips before shifting his discard black coat from one hand to another. His tie was messed up so but his hair were still perfectly gelled

   This went well as planned three of them apologised and has gotten positive reviews. Stocks of company were getting back high slowly and they won't be getting expelled anymore

Sana: Can we meet?"

   He couldn't help but smile, she never texts him herself let alone asking to meet. This could be counted as one of best days, he also was already missing her today. When he doesn't miss her?

Sidharth: I'll be there sweetheart
Sana: mein wait kar rahi hoon

"Mujhe aj itna drunk hona hai ke bhool jau kitna zaleel feel hua hoon aj mein" Zain spoke with dramatic gasp

"Phir drunk and drive mein kisi ko mardo again zaleel hojao" Aryaan forced smile at him. Sidharth ignored them and got inside his car which was parked just few feet's away

"Kuch acha bola karo warna muh band" Zain rolled his eyes getting inside his car, thankfully he has brought his own. He rolled down window of his car as he stoped car beside Sidharth's "Farmhouse chalte hain I'll call boys" He said

"Tum log jao mein baad mein ata hoon" He said and drive off

   Sidharth tiredly rested elbow against window and one hand on wheel. His eyes felt heavy but he kept his eyes focused on road ahead as he drive through phase 6 road

  One moment he was driving normally and second moment his car went flying across street after getting hit by heavy truck with speed. He groan feeling massive pain in his back of head and in different parts of body, hot liquid spill down his neck and side of forehead. His vision slowly getting blurry, voices of people gathering around his car slowly fading as his eyes closed
