Lockdown

Happy accidents

SOHIT POV 

That girl is weird. 

She shouted at her younger sister. WHO DOES THAT!? 
Then she blushed when we got closer. I GET THAT. 
But then she shouted at her mother again. FUCK HER! 
And then, she was the damned girl who decided to lock herself in a room and cry all day long. WHAT THE FUCK!??!? 

She made me feel bad for her! Well, I wasn't particularly feeling bad for her in the start, I just wanted to smack her once but then she kept crying for hours along. She did not even let me use the wifi that day but... She was crying the entire day too... Since the morning. She didn't have lunch or breakfast or anything. In the end, I felt bad for her and made Maggie for dinner...

I don't why I did it but I knocked over her door at night. But seriously. She hadn't eaten anything since the morning and I was scared that she fell unconscious.
" Go away," but when I heard her deep voice sniffle from inside the room, I sighed in relief
" You haven't eaten anything since the morning! At least eat!" 2 minutes and a loud grumbling sound later, the door opened and I could so very clearly see that she had been crying. Her eyes were red and her nose was swollen. There were dried salt marks over her cheeks and she looked sick. Yup, she had been crying
" Thanks," and then, her small, weak fingers took the Maggie bowl from my hands and her head just turned around as she began walking back inside that hub but I wasn't letting it go that easily....

So, I held the door before she could close it completely and followed her inside.
" Why are you following me?"
" I don't know. Why are you crying?"
" I don't want to talk to you," and just like a small kid, she snuggled her small body into a corner of the room, pouted and stuffed her mouth with the food I made. But seriously, what is she? Maybe 4 11... Definitely smaller than 5 because she fit in that small space even with me hoarding half of her bed.

Wasn't she the one who shouted at her mother and cursed at her too?

I don't get her. She was the one at wrong there but she was also the one who was acting like a victim and I don't know why but my strong gaze at her didn't even make her look at me. She just plain ignored me.

" Seriously? You're going to ignore me after I made dinner on your day?"
" I said thank you. What else do you even want?" That spicy little brat! And she even gave me that innocent look. Like it would make me magically believe that she was not guilty.

Sigh.

It made me magically believe that she was just an innocent child.
" The story behind why you are crying," I softly hit her cheek but she frowned and looked away
" No," she pouted and stuffed her mouth once again and I sighed once again. It wasn't weird that she didn't want to share it with me because we just met like 4 days ago but I also knew that she didn't have any other choice...
" C'mon. It's not like I'm going to tell anyone. I know that you want to tell someone," I passed a beer bottle towards her and she turned to look at me with a pouting face and just glared for a long moment without saying anything before she snatched the beer bottle from my hands
" I don't have a great relationship with my sister or my mother," and with that, she just gulped down almost half of that beer bottle! I just had a crate with me, trust me.
" So it just stings when she talks that highly about that brat. Like I'm a fucking loser in life," I mean... Is she not? She practically is living off my rent at this point.
" Bitch," but she sounded pretty mad and I'm not trying to judge. Because, I don't know what exactly happened between both of them.
" Basically you are just jealous that your sister gets more love than you?"
" Huh?" She looked at me in disbelief but I smiled softly at her when I saw her nod her head lightly and wrapped my hand around her shoulders
" Welcome to the club!"
" Huh? What club? Aren't you the rich one,"
" The rich one and the most hated. Obviously. I practically left my house to pursue my dream. Appa hates me," I don't know why I was telling her any of that! But I just felt the need to cheer her up a little...
" But you ended up rich. Look at me. I'm a single loser, jobless woman stuck in her house," well. At least she knows the truth about herself.
" Pch," but I scoffed at her truthful declaration
" Seriously? That all you can think about right now?"
" It is the truth! Of course,"
" Well. I have to agree," I chuckled when she hit me on the stomach but it was a friendly smack in the ribs, nothing else.
" But on a much serious note. We both never actually got to know each other. I mean, all I know is that you are Pari and that you are a cheapskate. We're staying together for 45 days. Don't you think we should get to know each other?" Why was I acting friendly? Well because although she looked hot when she was angry, she looked really sick from her core when she was sad and my eyes just weren't in the mood of seeing her like that.
" I'll even begin! See. I'm Sohit Kulkarni. Brahmin, 27, single," her ears perked up when she heard that last word, I was sure.
" Originally from Bengaluru. I left home for college and studied in IIT Delhi. Settled in Delhi and owner of Juggle. Appa's name is Surya Kulkarni and Amma's name is Shubhangi. I have one sister whom you know and other cousins here and there," I showed a friendly hand to shake this time. Somewhere, I was trying to form a friendship with that girl... Hopefully, she would accept.
