XOMANTORAL

Chapter 18

Aditi pushed her hands and stood up. Her rage was prevalent in her eyes,

"Bhrom? Bhrom nohoi. Moi Ejoni selfish, narrow minded, dumb ass, oxbhyo suwali. Jot morom pau douri jau."

She grabbed her hair with both her hands and pulled them crying. Ritika looked at her from the floor. She said,

"Toi ki koribi buli bhabiso?"

Aditi took a long breath and stood there, with hands on her hips. She wiped her tears after a while and said,

"Ki korim. Rohanor pora atori thakim. Nuwarileo thakim. Buji jabo teu."

She gave a taunting laugh. Slapping her head, she said,

"Iman characterless moi. Bhaba e nasilu. Mori jau bhal asil."

Ritika stood up from the floor and gave a slight slap on her back head. She put her finger on her mouth gesturing her to shut up. After that, she went to the kitchen to make the dinner.

The night was hell lot for herself. She couldn't even understand what made her feel for Rohan. She opened her phone and the first thing she saw on the gallery was his picture on the streets of Mumbai, the one she took from behind. She closed the gallery and turned off the phone. That question messed up her head. She shut her eyes very hard and rubber her hands on her face. 

Yeah, she would ignore Rohan. He was a very close friend, but she couldn't see him as her friend. She felt something way beyond friendship. Even if that thought had came, she would hush them away. But, confessing it to Ritika made it insufferable for her. She wrapped her arms around her knees and slept. 

The next day, she went to the office a little late. As soon as she entered the office, the first person that came on her way was Rohan. She looked at him and it made her heart skip a beat. she quickly took her gaze down and attempted to pass him. But Rohan took her name and said,

"Dorob loi asa ne?"

She nodded her head without looking at him and went to her room. Rohan got confused with her behaviour. He followed her to her cubicle. When she settled herself in her seat, he said,

"Kiba hoise?"

She got startled and looked at him. She was in no position to talk to him. Therefore, she shook her head and sat down at her seat. He kept leaning on the wall and said,

"Tell me."

She got irritated with his interrogation and said,

"Eko hua naai. Mok kaam koribo diyok."

He got embarrassed and went to his room. He didn't even understand what went over her to treat him like that. He couldn't figure out what he did wrong. Her behaviour upset him. He decided not to think too much about her and focus on his work.

Aditi took one of her file and went to Arohan's room. As she knocked at the door, Arohan let her in. In one of the chairs, Rohan was sitting. She saw him and turned back to go out, but Arohan called her,

"Aditi aha sun. Boha."

She looked at him with an embarrassing smile and said,

"Apunaloke kotha pati look. Moi pisot ahim."

Arohan insisted her and she was forced to sit beside Rohan. Her heart was beating fast. Her hands were trembling. Arohan kept talking to Rohan for a while and finally shifted his attention to Aditi,

"Kua, ki asil?"

Aditi was somewhat drowned in her thought. She was startled with his voice and said,

"Huh? Nohoi mane moi eikhon file dekhabo khujisilu."
