Ishan's POV
Honestly, everyone's pissed at Shubman right now, and I mean, who can blame us? I never thought I'd see the day my OTP would break up. Not in a million years.
When Shobhana stormed off earlier, we couldn't find her for the longest time. I was seriously worried—she was devastated, and now, I was pissed at Shubman. What the hell was he thinking?
I couldn't wrap my head around it. Did he really get jealous just because Shobhana got that job with NYC Vogue? She didn't deserve this. Not from him. Not from anyone.
I walked back into the room, my mind racing, only to find the gift she had given him lying on the floor, discarded like it didn't matter.
I bent down to pick it up, and the broken photo frame almost felt like a punch to my gut. Damn, Shubman.How could you do this?
I saw Shubman sitting by himself, looking like he was in another world. I didn't want to talk to him, but this wasn't just about me. It was about Shobhana, and I wasn't going to stand by and let him treat her like this.
I ripped off the wrapping paper and was hit with the sight of the broken photo frame and the watch she had carefully chosen.
She'd put so much thought into that, and here it was—broken.
Everything was shattered. Just like her heart. And his.
I couldn't help myself. I glared at Shubman. "Why the hell would you do that?" I snapped, my voice a mix of anger and disbelief.
He just sighed, not even looking at me.
"I don't know, man. I don't know what's wrong with me," he muttered, running his hand over his face, clearly defeated.
I could feel the anger in my chest, my heart pounding. I leaned forward and stared him down.
"My best friend is heartbroken because of you. You really thought she was using you? All because of some stupid comment from some random idiot. I hate you for this, man," I said, my voice shaking with emotion.
This wasn't just about him hurting her. It was about the trust that had been broken.
"I fucked up. Big time," he said, barely looking up, his voice tinged with regret.
