Ms. Haughty Vs Mr. Thrifty ✅

Chapter 9

Shehnaaz looks at him in anger.

Sidharth: Ma'am before you start screaming again and breaking things, let me tell you my phone battery was dead and Dipti called you as well. She said you gave me permission to come later.

Shehnaaz: Huh?
Dips didn't call me at all. Why did she lie to him? Or is he lying to me? She is my friend since school. Sidharth isn't even acquaintance to me but still why do I feel that he ain't lying. Will find out myself.

Shehnaaz: Well, I hope you are making notes for me at college since I am missing a lot on study.

Sidharth: That's normal for me. I always make notes during lecture.

Shehnaaz: Hmmm.. Can you sing?

Sidharth: What?

Shehnaaz stares at him and the nurse softly giggles. He looks at the nurse.

Shehnaaz: Nurse, You can leave! I'll call you if I need.

Nurse gets up and goes from there. Shehnaaz signals and Sidharth occupies the chair on which the nurse was sitting.

Sidharth: No, I can't.

Shehnaaz: But I want to hear you sing.

Sidharth: But I never sang in my whole life.

Shehnaaz: There is always a first time. I am sure you didn't kiss any girl before like the way you behaved with me a year ago.

Sidharth: (changes the topic) Why can't you play music on your music system instead?

Shehnaaz: Wow!! That's a brilliant idea! Fine lets play a song on the music system and instead of singing you will now dance.

Sidharth (Face palms)
Arghhh, singing was the better option than dancing! But I am not doing anything. Dipti was right! She is playing with my life and career. She is arrogant and doesn't know how to treat people.

Sidharth: Why are you treating me like a clown? Don't you consider that even I am also a human being like you? Does it give you permission to play with someone's life when you have money?

Shehnaaz: What? I too have emotions, just because I have money I can't have things I like. I was never given things which I like. It was always the expensive things over my desire. I know the value of simple things more than people who don't have money to afford expensive things. I have been lying in this bed for 4 days but not a single friend visited me to ask me about my health. Do you think Dips came here because she was concerned about my health? No! But how will you understand this because you believe money can buy all things more than us. I stay with expensive nurse when I fall sick but you get your mother's love. Now leave me alone. Go away! (She screams)

Sidharth was angry and he didn't wanted her to fall unconscious again so he leaves at once. He goes home and takes his books to study but her words stung him.

She was right, she didn't have anyone beside her than the expensive nurse. My mom takes care of me when I am sick but she doesn't have one. How hurt could she be from inside? Could she be someone different from inside than what she shows potrays outside? What's stopping her to have genuine friends and act normal? She is such a mystery. She hates me but I still find it so difficult to avoid thinking about her or just ignore her. Why is she affecting me so much?

He gets up and goes to Mansion but the guard stops him from going inside. Guard informs him that she has instructed him to not allow anyone to meet her. Sidharth goes back home not getting any answer to his questions. He continues with his studies pushing her thoughts to the back of his mind.
