Mira
"Rehan get the door" I instructed. "You're getting a little too demanding these days you know" He said in an annoyed tone as he got off the sofa.

I smirked when I watched him take a small step back when he opened the door and saw who was standing in front of him. "Ar–Aryan" He greeted while Aryan stepped inside our house without waiting for an invitation.

I knew Aryan had nothing against him but he loved to let Rehan be afraid of him. "Hi" Aryan flashed a smile before bending down to kiss my cheek. Rehan and Suhana took their seats across us.

"Alright I'll make this quick" Aryan started. "I'm sorry for overreacting last night" Rehan was too shocked to say anything. "And if you hurt my sister...I will hit you" He warned him.

Suhana and I widened our eyes and exchanged looks. Rehan was still too scared to speak. All of us jumped slightly when Aryan clapped his hands together. "Right let's go" He pulled me up.

"Woah where we going?" I asked as he led me upstairs and left Suhana alone with Rehan. "What're we doing?" I asked. "Finishing what we started" I chuckled at his behaviour.

Suhana
I rolled my eyes when Rehan moved a step back from the door once he saw my brother. I had only come to this house once before so I was a little nervous.

I tried to stop my brother from entering the house without getting any invitation but I was too late. I gave Rehan an apologetic look before stepping in his house myself.

I looked around as I walked in. Last time I was unable to view the house properly. I glared at my brother as he made himself at home. He was being so rude but I didn't want to create yet another scene.

I sat down across from him and Mira to whom I returned a soft smile when I noticed she passed me one.

My brother rushed through his apology and I was sure Rehan didn't even have the time to process the apology before my brother was threatening him.

I locked concerned eyes with Mira and we both remained silent until my brother pulled Mira up and dragged her upstairs. Rehan and I sat there in silence for a moment before he cleared his throat.

He looked really nervous and I felt so guilty. "I'm really sorry Rehan, my brother can get very protective of me" I said softly. "It's okay" I eased up when I saw him start to relax.

"I know never got to see your video" He held out his hand but I just looked up at him. "I'll give you a live show instead" I took his hand and he led me to his room.

"Oh I love all of them" I looked at his shoe collection that was displayed on individual shelves on one the walls. "You like em? Mira made fun of them" I chuckled.

He sat on his chair and I took the edge of his bed. I watched him carefully as he started strumming his guitar. I had heard a lot of people play the guitar and Rehan was quite impressive compared to them.

He continued to play as he pushed himself forward and the wheels under the chair moved him closer to me slowly. He stopped right before me just as he finished the song.

"How was that?" He asked as he placed the guitar against the bed. "It was amazing" I let out. "Where did you learn?" I asked. "Started out on my own then started taking actual lessons a couple of years ago" He explained.

"Very impressive" I said. "Not as impressive as your dancing" He told me. Rehan and I kept talking about anything and everything without a care about anyone else.

Mira
"Stop it" I warned Aryan. "Let them be" I told him as I pulled him back from the door. We continued to hear music coming from Rehan's room. I figured he was showing off his skills.

"I'm sorry I'm acting crazy" Aryan said as he leaned against my headrest. "It's alright but I never thought you would this crazy about your sister" I leaned against Aryan and rested my chin on his chest.

"I know I–" He was struggling to find the right words so I reached out to him and turned his face back to me. "Tell me" I urged him to explain to me.

"Suhana and I have always had some sort of competition with each other it's how we keep motivated" His hand moved to my hair and started playing with it.

"But despite that we've always been a team that always supports each other no matter what like we have an understanding" He explained to me.

"She's my sister so of course I need to care for her but she's also my partner and I can never let anything happen to her"

I shifted uncomfortably against his chest. I felt a pang in my chest while Aryan told me how he wants to protect his little sister. All my guilt that was present at the start of the deal came rushing back.

For a moment I had forgotten but it's all back now. Aryan means so much to me and I just made somehow he loves a pawn for a selfish deal. "Mira are you listen–are you okay?" I sat up and pulled away from him.

"Y–yes yes I just you talking about your sister made me emotional" He chuckled. "You don't worry about all that okay?" He told me. "I know that if you think Rehan is good for her then he must be good" Aryan pulled me in for a hug and I hung onto him guiltily.
