FALLING OUT [ON HOLD]

Chapter 5

~Misha~

Just as the door gets closed behind me I hear a loud crashing sound in the room and I know the reason behind it fully well. My heart tells me to go check on him but my mind tells me otherwise. I listen to my mind this time since everytime I have listened to my heart in matters concerning him I have only got hurt in return.

I rush down the stairs and bump into someone. I look up rubbing my forehead and it is Daniya.

"Where were you?" I ask her.

"Where were you? We have been trying to call you from the last hour." She asks me in return.

"Network problem." I show her my phone.

"But you could have at least listened to me the last time we talked when you were coming here." She accuses.

"Why? What was so important?"

"You know...he is here." She says not meeting my eyes.

"So, you all knew but me?" At this point of time I am livid.

Judging my expression, she queries, "You saw him?"

"I met him and talked too." I reveal, "No no, not talk. We argued."

"Oh Goshh! Come let's go, the girls are waiting." She holds my hand and leads me to the corner of the room where I can see the girls.

"Hey" Ragini notices me first.

Ridhima pulls me into a hug, "We were so worried about you." and rubs my back.

I pull out from the hug and look at them.

"She has met him already." Daniya announces eyeing everyone cautiously.

"The fuck" Anushka curses, wide eyed and puts a hand over her mouth, trying to process the information.

"What did he say?" Tapasya questions.

"Nothing." I huff out.

"How are you feeling?" It is Shraddha.

"Mentally drained, physically exhausted. Maybe one of them or maybe both. I do not know." I look down, tired.

"It will be alright. We are here na?" She rubs my arms relaxing me.

"Yeah" I mumble.

We just stand there and chatter for a while.

After some minutes the light of the room gets dimmed and the whole focus is on the dance floor. A party type song is played by the DJ and one by one all the guests present here occupy the floor.

This goes on for long and when a sensual song approaches requested by a couple all the duos get on the dance floor. Priya too with her boyfriend, Akash goes there and tugs me to go with them. But I refuse since I am not comfortable in dancing that too when there is this huge audience and I do not have any partner here, not that I will go if I have any.
