I'm sick of shutting the door in his face. I'm either going to break my door or his perfectly sculpted jaw.

I never asked him to assist me. Did I? Rude, he's exactly like them. Everyone's the same. They don't know how to treat or respect each other.

I haven't spoken to him in two days, and no matter how hard he tries, I won't. His family returned home on Monday. I know this because our cabin crew was on that flight.

I still haven't given Priya my present. It cost me 1500 rupees. So I decided to give it to her. I was hesitant to go there at this time.It's quarter to nine. But I have an early shift tomorrow, so this is the ideal time to leave.

It takes me about fifteen minutes to perfectly wrap the plants in a box. On top of that, I wrote congrats, happy new home. pughazh and Priya. I'm hoping it looks good.

When I rang the doorbell, she opened it and pulled me into a bone-crushing hug. I returned her hug awkwardly.

pughazh, look! Who we have here. Kushi. Priya yelled excitedly, grabbed my hands, and dragged me in.

Coming. pughazh yelled somewhere in the house and dashed towards us.

Thangachi! Intha annana pakka unnaku ippo tha time kedachucha?
(Do you have time now to pay a visit to your brother?) .He pretended to cry while holding the couch's arm rest. He always reminds me of my twin brother, and despite the fact that we all speak Hindi in our house, he prefers to call me Thangachi. He learned that from our next-door neighbor.

Stop, it's humiliating! Priya smacked his head, pushed him away, and drew me to a seat.

Go ahead and get her some water.

No, it's fine. I couldn't attend Griha pravesh, so I came to give you my gift. Please accept it.

Priya, hurry up. Open the present. He stepped forward and took the gift from my grasp and give to priya. She carefully unwrapped the gift and read the note I had written.

Plants! Both exclaimed loudly, and I sat there hesitantly waiting for a negative expression.

Aww.They are stunning. Thank you so much. Our parents provided everything, and Veer set everything up in the apartment. We were going to buy some plants, but you brought us. This one is unique.

Let us decide where to keep them, Priyu. She looked around the living room, roaming with those plants in their hands. Let's keep them here.

No, honey. We can hang them near the big window to the balcony, which will receive sunlight from here.

You are completely correct, priyu. As a first thing, I'll do that work tomorrow.
They debated and eventually decided. I'm not sure why, but seeing them made me feel a little envious, because I could never have a life like theirs.I'm not even sure if I'll find a partner in this lifetime.

Look, Veer has arrived. So why don't we all eat together? I turned around to see him leaning against the wall, but his gaze was fixed on me.

I soon found myself at the dining table with them. Veer sat across from me, and his gaze never left mine for a second.

Priya was about to serve me when Veer abruptly stopped her. If he doesn't want me to eat with them, he can tell me right away. Why is he insulting me in this manner? I held back the tears that threatened to fall.

I rose from my chair and took out my phone. I just remember I have to leave. I rushed into my apartment and went straight to my room to retrieve my handbag.

I heard the front door close; I'm on the ball now. Ready to smack the intruder with plushies? No. I quickly reached for the broomstick in the corner of my room.

Khusheeeeee.Mr. Govind's annoying voice is What i heard,next thing What is he doing here?

I gripped the broomstick tightly and walked into the living room, where he sat comfortably, as if it were his home.

Khusheeeee. If the door hadn't been open, I would've knocked.

What are you doing here? Go to your apartment before I call the security and kick you out.

I just wanted to see you. That's why I came.

Get out. He can't even stand up straight.and a strong odour of alcohol emanates from him. What happened to my phone? I have to immediately call security to have him removed but where's my phone?

Khusheeee, he suddenly had a death grip on my hand and shoulder. My brain stopped working for a split second because I was so shocked. It was as if I had lost my mind and my voice. I started hitting his head with my free hand. He immediately let go of my hand, and I pushed him, causing him to fall to the floor. I dashed outside and unlocked it from the outside. What happened just now?

Suddenly, I found it difficult to breathe, I collapsed in front of my door and concentrated on my breathing to bring it under control. I have no idea how to do it.I had never experienced a panic attack before, not even when bullies at my orphanage locked me in the storeroom.

I saw Veer, Priya, and pughazh running towards me. Veer completely embraced me, and I hid myself in his arms.

I - lock- he-My words don't make any sense to me. I pointed to my door, and the scoundrel banged on it from inside.

I'm not a big hugger, but his arms around me are important right now. It gave me a sense of security. When I was scared after seeing Evil Dead, I remember hugging my papa. He wrapped his protective arms around me and singed me to sleep.

You're all right. You're doing fantastic. Just concentrate on me. Look into my eyes, he cupped my face, his face close to mine.

That's right. Now breathe in, as he instructed, and breathe out, as I gazed into his eyes. We did it for five minutes straight, and somehow my breathing returned to normal.

I could hear him banging on my door; I tried to move, but Veer wrapped his arm around my shoulder, causing me to wince slightly.

Mr. Govind, he's inebriated. I raised my head and saw Ms. Gupta, Priya, pughazh, security, and some of my apartment members standing there. I can hear them whispering to themselves. I want to crawl under my bed and never come out again. I can feel my pride sailing somewhere on a ship. This news will now spread like wildfire, and everyone will blame and disparage me. This is how our society functions. No matter what she has to endure as a girl, no one will point a finger at a man because he is a man.
