Chapter 2

Riddhima's POV ,

" Bhaiya how much does this cost ? " I asked the shopkeeper who was selling a beautiful collection of earrings.

" 250 each.."

Listening to his reply, my eyes widened..it may not be costly for other people but for me it is too much..

" Bhaiya if you reduce the price a little bit then I will buy 20 sets of earrings.."

I requested him while showing my puppy eyes and covering the rest of the face with scarf.

" No beta.. bargaining is not done here.. sorry.."

My face fell down after listening to his words. I would have gone from here without buying anything but these are really very beautiful and I wanted to buy them for myself and for my fellow members.."

" Uncle ji please na.. these are very costly for me..
If you reduce it then I will buy 20 sets more...plzz don't deny.."

I requested him once again. Maybe he will not say no to me this time. I prayed to God in my mind that he should say yes and as soon as he nodded in yes, I thanked to god.

After giving him the amount, I left that shop while doing a happy dance in my mind.

While I was walking, I examined my surroundings and took a heavy breath seeing people were walking freely and happily without any tension. Some of them were with their families wile some with friends and some were couples.

" Why my life is not like this ? " I questioned to myself...

I wish I could also live like them where no one can snatch anyone's freedom but the environment in which I live, has no freedom. We have to pass our each minute in fear.

I was so lost in my world that I didn't notice I bumped with a wall..

I closed my eyes and was going to fall down but feeling no pain, I opened my eyes slowly and realised it was not a wall..rather it was a man with a strong physique.

His hands wrapped around my waist while my back was facing him.

My scarf automatically opened from my face and before it could fall on the ground and that person could see my face, I quickly kept my hand on it preventing it from falling and brought it near to my face again, hiding my identity.
I turned my head back to look at the person who was holding me .

I was trying to remove his strong grip from me but that man was so lost in his world that he didn't notice my struggling so at last I dig my nails into his palm, though I don't wanted to do it as he saved me from falling but he was not leaving me only..so I left with no other option.

" Ouch.." he winced slowly.

He immediately left me and I moved a few steps back from him to maintain some distance.

" are you alright miss ? " He asked.

" Ye..yes.."

I replied and turned back to go as I didn't want to talk with any stranger..I feel uncomfortable..

" I did not know that while saving someone from falling, in return I will be the one getting bruises instead of thank you. "

I stopped in the middway and looked back at him where he was standing while showing his hand where I have pinched him. It had turn red and I regretted for doing that.
