Destined to Be!

Chapter 6

"Drive fast, Dushyant! Anayra is alone there, what if something happens?" Mikhail yelled at his best friend, urging him to speed up. Since he didn't have his own car, he had to rely on Dushyant's help, or rather, in order to reach the location where Anayra was.

"If you're going to nag me, why didn't you come with me in the first place?" Dushyant grumbled, getting annoyed.

"Does privacy mean nothing to you?" Mikhail shot back.

"You're acting like you're so concerned about her privacy, but why didn't you just say so earlier?" Dushyant retorted.

"What are you talking about?" Mikhail was confused.

"Don't you know?" Dushyant said as if it was obvious. "You're falling for her, idiot!"

Mikhail's eyes widened at Dushyant's words. He couldn't believe it - he, Mikhail Khanna, was in love? No way. He couldn't allow himself to fall in love, especially not with someone as pure and innocent as Anayra. He couldn't risk ruining her life without any just cause.

"That's not true," he muttered to himself, trying to deny it.

As Dushyant was about to speak, they suddenly caught sight of Mikhail's car with Anayra inside, waiting for him. ACP sir was at a distance, turning off his headlights so as not to reveal that they had met. Dushyant couldn't help but feel a twinge of concern for his friend, Anayra. He knew how much she meant to Mikhail and wondered what was going on between the two of them.

Mikhail quickly checked the car and fixed the wires, and the couple bid farewell to Dushyant, apologizing for disturbing him so late at night. Dushyant felt a sense of relief that everything seemed to be alright with them, but he couldn't shake off the worry that something was still bothering Mikhail.

As they set off on their way home, with Mikhail at the wheel, Dushyant noticed that Mikhail seemed lost in thought. He couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy for his friend. He knew how much Mikhail had been struggling with his feelings for Anayra. Despite his attempts to avoid thinking about her, it was clear that she still held a special place in his heart.

Mikhail's mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Anayra, despite his attempts to avoid them. He couldn't deny the intense emotions he felt whenever he was around her. It was as if every fibre of his being was drawn to her, and he couldn't explain why. As he glanced over at Anayra, he noticed that she had dozed off in the passenger seat due to exhaustion. He felt a sense of tenderness towards her and slowed down the car, wanting to make sure that she was comfortable and could get some rest. He played some soft music to help her relax and drift off into a peaceful sleep. Despite the tumultuous emotions he was feeling, he couldn't help but feel a sense of calm wash over him as he drove home with the woman he loved by his side.

The next day at the CBI Bureau, everyone was busy with their work. Mikhail seemed lost in his thoughts, thanks to Dushyant, who had been observing him since morning. Dushyant couldn't help but ask, "Did you have a fight with Anayra yesterday?"

Mikhail replied, "No, we didn't fight. I'm just confused. And it's all because of you, Dushyant. Why do you think I love her?"

Dushyant suggested they go to the canteen to talk more openly. Once they settled in the canteen, Dushyant asked him, "So, you are troubled by the fact that you love Anayra?"

Mikhail nodded and replied, "Yes."

Dushyant was surprised and asked, "Mikhail, why?"

Mikhail sighed and said, "Dushyant, a girl like Anayra deserves better than me. I don't want to ruin her life by loving her."
