So enjoy this chapter! Let's roll <3

 I laughed "Shanyana, seriously. What is wrong with you?"

"I swear I saw her, I'm not just kidding around here." Tina raged, I rolled my eyes in annoyance.

The door of the hospital room open, the nurse walked in "Comment allez-vous?" (How are you feeling) She asked.

"Je veux juste sortir d'ici." (I just wanna get out of here) I muttered, my nostrils flaring up for a second. Being in a hospital, is like living in prison. I hate it, there's no point, it's not like I'm dying anyway.

Tina faced the towards the nurse, they got into a conversation and started babbling stuff in french. But my mind wasn't working I was too tired to register everything, I wanted to go home.

"Aisha, Aisha." Tina tapped my shoulder, rollin me out of my thoughts.

"Huh?" I frowned.

"There perception is that you'll need to take medicines, and put on the ointment on your arm for considerably a week. Or just until your better. There happy to keep you here and work on your recovery, if your not okay with it they are here arranging papers right now. In a few hours we could leave." Tina addressed.

I nodded "Tell them were ready to leave."

1 1/2 hours later.

When the car stopped infront of our house, I rushed inside not even waiting for Tina to come. I changed into some comfy clothes and shot myself onto my bed to have a quick nap... drift myslef into beautiful dreams, for a chance to be happy and not face reality.

💫💫💫

"Umm" I moaned, closing my eyes, enhaning the delicious taste, In my mouth.

Tina kicked me under the table "Stop it Aisha, there people looking at you!" She gushed.

So here we are, it's 1:00pm. Lunch in Pairs! It's always super crowed at this peak time. I'm sitting here with Tina. We woke up, estimately 2 hours later, got dressed and headed for lunch since we both were starving.

I'm here having my favorite 'Steak-frites with
Béarnaise sauce' a highly popluar dish In Paris, and Tina is .... well .. her meal is 'Bouillabaisse' it's a soup, sure it looks all good and probably tastes good too but come on! it's a boring dish. It's just a stew of mixed herbs, meats and vegetables. Some steak with french fries is waayyyy better.

A few moments passed of us just silently eating, until Tina spoke.. ruining the taste of my lovely food.

"Shanyana is here, I saw her!"

"Can you please stop talking about her?" I begged. "Shanyana is just a stupid little girl!"

"What's wrong with you Aisha? Weren't you both best friends." Tina spoke, her voice held a spark of irritation in it.

I slammed my fork on the plate, I could feel alot of eyes on us, as I just continued to stare Tina. Her eyes widened a bit, but she quickly recovered to a expression less face.

"Just stop talking about her, will you? I don't want to create a scene here." I said, putting a chip in my mouth, going back to eating my food.

"I guess it's time for you to stop being such a bitch, and face your problems right?"

It happened again, my hand left the metal fork, slamming on the plate making a loud 'ting' sound. Coughs filled the sudden atmosphere, when Tina choked on her water.

We knew the voice very well..... I knew that voice very well. It was coming from right behind me. Shanyana Singhania was here.

Tina was looking right past my shoulder, between her horrifying coughs. Looking at her.

But me, I was just too ..... shockingly angry I guess? ... I was afraid if I see her I'll do something wrong. But then I knew Shanyana was innocent, she has done nothing. But she is a past, and past is pain. Shanyana would give me pain, and I'm not ready for it. So I'll face her right now! I'll tell her who I am, who I've become... the strong Aisha, the Aisha who doesn't care about anyone. The Aisha who is not scared from anyone anymore.

I snickered, yanking my chair back as I stood, steady up to my feet. "Look who decided to show up today!..." I turned around, my eyes met Shanyana's. She looked angry, irritated & annoyed. But her eyes held a different story, they looked hurt, betrayed & .... sad.

"Shanyana, how pleasant it is to see you again." I chirped, sarcastically. My smile evident being fake, I tilted my head to the side, observing her.

"Must say, you haven't changed a bit." I said.

She smirked, it was not just an ordinary smirk, it was the one Shanyana probably used in her college days.

"Your right! I still haven't changed but you..." Her eyes scanned me from top to bottom. "Wow." She muttered.

"Since when did a Indian behnji turn into Glamours diva?" She asked, it was more like a statement then a question...

My jaws clenched, as I tried to maintain my anger.

I smiled widely "Is that a compliment?" I questioned.

"I don't know, is it?" She challenged, I glared at her, what she trying to prove.

A dry cough escaped my mouth, as my smile faded away. "Why are you here?" I asked.

"There's a red car outside, be in there in 30 seconds, I'm waiting." She spun around, her high heels tocking off. Leaving me dumbfounded.

But then I heard those heels again, "And by the way, Tina?" She said, looking past my shoulder over to were Tina was sitting, wide eyed.

"Y-yeah?" Tina stuttered.

"Your not gonna come okay? Just stay here finish food and go home.... while Aisha." I could feel her eyes on mine, but I didn't look back at her. My eyes stayed rooted to the wooden floor of the restaurant.

"She's gonna come with me... we have stuff to catch up on."

"That's fine." Tina said, anxiously sipping on water again.

I grab my purse and followed Shanyana.

Why can't people just leave me alone! My life the past 2 years was so good, but some memories and some past people just have to come back and ruin it!

The car door slam shut, I was sitting at the front passenger seat, while Shanyana was driving the car. She turn on the radio, a loud voice of a man took over the surroundings, it was the news.

I pressed the 'stop' button shutting it down. It was annoying. Shanyana noticed what I did, but thank god she said nothing. If she turned that vexatious thing back on, I would have killed her.

Silence took over for a few minutes until I decided to break it.

"Where the hell are we going?" I asked.

No answer....

"Shanyana? Where are you taking me?"

"For fuck sake are you even listening? I'm right next to you! FIRST OF ALL, YOU TECHNICALLY KIDNAP ME, AND NOW YOU'RE GIVING ME THE SILENT TREATMENT." I yelled.

No answer.... are eyes were just on the road.

I banged my hand on the dashboard, then backed down on the seat, taking deep breaths, trying to calm myslef down.

"Where's Abhi?" I questioned, hoping I would get an answer. But no.... still no answer.

I shook my head, rolling my eyes, then looking outside from the window. "Unbelievable." I muttered underneath my breath.

💫💫💫

"Follow." Shanyana gestured, her hand waving at me, telling me to come up at the wooden platform with chairs.

"Why have you brought me here?" I asked. The place was dark, looked a bit abdoned, no one was around. It was a quite park, a dry lake. In the middle of the park, there was a open shed made out of wood, where we were currently standing.

"I told you, I want some answers." She sat down on a chair, I did the same.

"Tell me what happened the past 2 years..."

I gulped, "Why should I tell you things which are apart of personal life?" I questioned.

"Because you don't know anything Aisha. You're not ready to believe yourself but I'm here to tell you it's true. You ran away from your life, and if doing that made you happy, doing that changed your life then that's great. But you didn't just leave your home and your past living, but you also left the people in your life. Those people who loved you and still do care for you till this day. I need some answers for those people, I'm not telling you to approach them, I'm just saying that your past really mattered."

I clapped, laughing herendiously. "Your quite funny Shanyana." I muttered. "Your making me sound so damn evil right now. I didn't ran away, I just wanted to change that's it. You know that thing right? that beats inside your body--"

"You mean your heart?" Shanyana interrupted.

"Yes, my heart, My Heart that people kept breaking! I was forced to move here, and I still care about the people I love. I call Jeet everyday, I facetime him, I ask him about dad, and how he is, I ask him how things are going in India, and you're fucking telling me that I ran away from people that I love!."
I spoke, slightly shaking my head in digust.

"REALLY?" Shanyana yelled. I flinched at her voice, then blinked a few times as she went on.

"Then why are you here in Pairs huh? And If you're still in contact with the people you love, then who hell broke your heart?"

"Everyone of you did!" I replied back. "You and Abhi, Rohan then Ayan even AYAN! You all were such... hypocrites." I wanted to say more, but then I paused to look at Shanyana, she looked bewildered.

"Ok..." She took a deep breathe, it was like her brain was registering everything I said.

"H-how... I mean what did me and Abhi did?"

I rolled my eyes "You left on Jeet's wedding day, I looked around for you guys for ages but then I found out you both left. I told Jeet and he lost it on me saying that I should have known and stopped you both from leaving..."

"Oh." Shanyana narrowed her eyes to the ground "Then what?" She asked.

"Well then my ex came back, I fainted so I missed out on Jeet's wedding, then all this drama happened. But Jeet got really pissed that non of his friends were there for him."

She looked at me, I shaked my head "Done?"

"No.. So basically we broke Jeet's heart not yours."

I chuckled lightly, "Yes but I'm his sister soo.... I kinda also got upset."

"Oh..." Shanyana nodded in deep thought, I laughed at her expression for some reason I found it quite mirthful.

"And how did Ayan broke your heart?"

I gulped, a wave of horrible memories came flooding inside my brain.

"He left me." I stare at the ground. "He brought me to Paris with him, but then left to London for some business work, he said he would come back, but he never did. I called him alot of times, but he never picked up my call." I said, my heart tightened as I reflected on that time.

"Then?" Shanyana asked.

"The door bell rang, it was Tina she said he bulided a business of his own branch in London, and that he won't come back. She said that she is here to stay with me, because Ayan told her too. She also told me that Ayan had another office here in Paris, which is now handled by Tina."

"Did you ever talk to him, after that?" Shanyana spoke.

"I wanted too, but he doesn't..."

"Why?"

I shrugged, not knowing what to say. Cause nobody knew the answer to that, why he stopped talking to me? I had never felt so alone, so lost... he was bestfriend, a friend who backstabbed me, a friend who left me behind in a unknown city.

I called him my friend, and If I say friend I'm saying I love you. Love means taking the good times and the hard times. It means standing by the other in times of heartbreak, easing their pain, seeing them for the human being that they are. That's what friends are for right? But Ayan wasn't... because instead of easing my pain, he brought me pain.

"I'm so sorry, why didn't you call me Aisha?" Shanyana voice broke my thoughts.

"India is very far away from Pairs, that's why." I laughed, taking a deep breath, I want my mind to leave the thoughts of Ayan behind.

"Why are you here Shanyana?" I asked.

"Me and Abhi came here for a holiday. We both were so busy in work, we needed time of." She explained, her looking everywhere but me.

"I know your lying." I stated out the fact. "Just say the truth.." I told her.

She bit her lip, her gaze down on the ground.
"Um t-the thing is that... Abhi wanted to sort things out with Rohan, he knew about his tour in Paris and how he'll be performing in places."

I gulped, my jaws clenched. How can someone's name put me off guard so easily!

"Do you know about it?"

"Yes, the whloe Paris does! But how will Abhi meet him?" I replied back.

Shanyana shrugged, resting her back on the chair. "I'm pretty sure he'll figure something out! We still have 5 days." A smile took over her face. "Abhi would love to meet you again, and we would love if you show us more of this beautiful place!" Her face shone with exitcment.

I mixed in my figers, smiling sadly. "Shanyana is good to see you again... I'm sorry about how I behaved earlier b-but, I don't know If I'm ready for... you know... all this bonding thing." I leveled my hands back onto my lap.

Shanyana sighed and stood up. She came and sat to me, pulling me close to her head, side hugging.

"Aisha what happened in the past is left in the past, you started fresh! I mean look at you, now you just need to show everyone that your ready to forget all the horrible memories!"

"It's not easy Shanyana." I whispered softly.

Her hand moved up and down my arm, she was soothing me. "I know it's not." Shanyana said.

"But you can try. And I'll help you go through it Aisha, isn't that what friends are for?" She suggested, I pulled back and smiled. I threw my arms around her neck, and hugged her as tightly as I could. "I missed you so much! I'm so happy your here." I rambled, I could feel her chest shake as she laughed.

"Aw, I missed you to my friend."

I pulled back and looked at her, my arms still gripping her shoulders as I smiled widely. "So where do you want to go first?" I asked.

"Uhhh.... Shopping?" She said, her eyes gleaming blissfully.

I chuckled loudly "There's so many things you could see in Paris, but you want to go shopping!" I claimed, shaking my head.

"Yes, because I want to see all the special places with Abhi!" She whined like a child, as I laughed.

I stood up and grabbed her arm "Fine then let's go Shopping!" I cheered, tugging her.

"Really now?" Shanyana stared at me in shock.

"Yes Now."

"Yes!" Shanyana jumped, shrieking. I laughed, gripping my bag onto my arm.

"C'mon let's go and have some fun!"
