Chapter 155 - 176

155

Randhir was in his room fuming. What was wrong with her? How could she say such senseless and such ridiculous things? There was no way that she could mean it... but the last message she sent him just pissed him off.

He felt like barging into her room right now, but he wasn't ready to give away that he was Akshay.

Then a thought struck his mind. Could it be possible that she was testing him to see if he was Akshay? No... surely she couldn't go to such lengths.

Randhir signed off and threw his phone on the bed with a frustrated sigh. She really had lost it.

He got in bed and tried to ignore the thoughts of her having feelings for Akshay and not him, but they continued to cloud him and weren't letting him go. How could she feel for or say those things to someone else? That wasn't right.

Sanyukta was waiting in her room after Akshay signed off. She frowned. Randhir still hadn't barged in. Had she made an error in judgement? If she had, then poor Akshay probably felt so awkward. She ought to clarify that she was joking... but what if Randhir was just hiding himself so he wouldn't come out and disclose his identity?

Soon they both fell asleep. When Randhir woke up that morning, he went out. He didn't want to stay in that house because he couldn't handle facing Sanyukta.

He went to the shopping mall, the first place he could think of to go. Perhaps he ought to go back to Canada. Yes, he decided that he would return. He had no reason to stay back. His intention of avoiding Sanyukta was firm... and right now he was angry at her anyways for even letting the thought of another man enter her mind.

At the mall, he was walking around, when he thought he saw someone familiar.

Randhir moved closer and squinted his eyes.

His mouth fell open when he saw that it was Harsh Shekhawat.

What was his father doing in India?

Randhir started to run after Harsh, but his father disappeared into the crowd. No. He couldn't disappear. It couldn't have been a trick of the eye. His father was in India and Randhir had to find him... he was not going to spare that man.

He searched everywhere, ran to the corners of the mall, expecting to find Harsh, but he couldn't see him anywhere. In fact, it was like his eyes had been lying to him.

Could it really be an illusion?

Randhir just shook his head and decided to go home. It was dinner time by the time he got home.

Sanyukta and Anju were in the kitchen cooking. As soon as Randhir entered, Sanyukta walked up to him with flour on her hands... it was like she was making roti.

"What's wrong with you?" she snapped. "Why are you avoiding me?"

Randhir just ignored her and disappeared into his room. He was going to ignore her. There was no way he would talk to her after what she did last night.

Unfortunately, he was forced to stay back in India now, because no matter how much he told himself he should hate Sanyukta, he couldn't. He had to protect her, because his father was here and he didn't trust his father one bit. Even if seeing him had been a trick of the mind, Randhir did not want to take that chance.

That night, Sanyukta was fuming. Randhir had locked himself in his room. He told Anju he would sleep early. Why was he sleeping early? Why was he avoiding her? Had she scared him last night? Was she being too bold? Did he get offended? No... he should tolerate her regardless of how bold or annoying she was being. It was his job!
