Last days

Chapter 6

 "What the fuck happened in there?" Krish asked as I reached the counter. " Man! Your eyes are moist."

"Nothing! Let's go home!" I wanted to leave immediately. I wanted to disappear.

A tall bulky guy with a thick beard ran past us pushing us, as we were leaving. And we hear screams and shouts, in her voice. The beard drags out the guy Ananya was kissing and starts beating him up on the floor and cursing him loudly. Ananya tries to stop the fight but there was no chance she can do that, without getting hurt. The employee behind us calls security.

Ananya is shouting at the beard "Nikhil let him go!" but he doesn't. Nikhil pushes Ananya away as she tries to pull him. Krish puts his hand on my shoulder, "Fuck it!" I said. And we both jumped in.

I am an inch taller than Krish and an inch shorter than the Bearded guy Nikhil, Reasonably I went for Nikhil. He was swinging punches. I hooked my arm in his and locked them behind his back.

"Let me fucking go!" he said, trying furiously to release himself. "You bastard!" he said kicking the guy on the floor. I pulled him away.

"Rish!" I heard her say, I didn't look at her. I don't want to look at her. The bearded beast notices as she calls me by name. "You slut! Is he your boyfriend too? He breaks away from me and holds Ananya's shoulders with force. "How many guys are you fucking with?"

I push him away. he balances himself and comes to punch me. But Krish's fist meets his chin like a thunderbolt. And Nikhil the bearded beast goes on the floor.

"Rish!" I don't want to look at her.

"Let's leave," I said to Krish heading towards the exit. Ignoring her weeping.

"RISH!" she says. I don't have it in me to look at her. But I do anyway. Her hazel pearly eyes are glittering with moisture. I know they are fake. Because I really don't care if they are real. "I don't know Ananya, I guess I am just disappointed, in you and in me," I said looking at her feet and we leave.
