VIREN POV

Some things are never meant to be anything more than a moment. And meeting Paakhi was one of them.

Thinking back to the moment when I let her see my vulnerability, My pain and Love, I feel foolish.

I don't know what happened but her big beautiful eyes always draw me in. I feel unusual, different when she gazes at me.
It's like confessing everything you have in your heart to her. It is as if she lets out that 'I will make it better' aura.

I'm dragged out of my thoughts by the ringing of my phone.

I grab it from my pocket and accept the call.

"Where are you?" Is the first thing I hear from Arhaan when I answer the call.

"In my car," I reply, looking at the hospital parking lot that I have been in for the last few hours.

"Okay, You need to come to the hospital right now." He asserts nervously.

"I can't," I reply, stroking my neck, which has sprained for keeping it in the same position for too long.

"What do you mean you can't? I need you here, we have a situation." Arhaan chides.

"Look, what I did was the right thing, so don't tell me to..." I try to explain.

"You self-centred prick, it is not about that, come here ASAP!" He reprimands and hangs up.

If it is not about it, then
What happened now?

I procure my keys and step out of the car.

My muscles feel sore. I stretch my legs and walk back inside the hospital.

I really can't face Paakhi right now. Maintaining this 'I don't care attitude' is becoming hectic.

Because I do care and a lot. Seeing that forlorn look on her face when I said those words will haunt me forever.

Confessing my love and then rejecting her both on the same day, I don't even know if she will ever want to talk to me.

Departing the elevator and knocking on the door, I walk in to uncover the tension as thick as a blanket.

I look around to see Paakhi and Maanya both on the left of the room, sitting with their heads in their hand. Whereas on the right side of the room, Shaurya is having a glaring match with a short curly hair guy, he has striking features. It seems like I have seen him somewhere.

Whereas Aditi is nowhere to be seen.

"You are early," Arhaan calls out walking forward.

"So why did you call me?" I ask instead.

Hearing me Shaurya leave the guy and step towards me.

"Aditi's reports are out, and her results show she is pregnant." Hearing him I get surprised for a second.

"And that guy," he points towards the guy at the back.
"He is Neel, says it's his," Arhaan explains.

"So what is the problem?" I ask confuse.

"The problem is that Shaurya claims it is his." I stare at Shaurya.

"Well?" I commence disturbed.

"Why do you think it is yours? It could be anyone's child." I proclaim.

"What do you mean by that?" I hear an exclamation from Paakhi. She stands up and scrambles towards me.
