Chapter-10: Fire She Is

Yashraj

I simply stormed into my room after dinner and locked the door behind me. I maintained the calm composure in front of my family but the turmoil I am going through right now is nowhere near calm.

I could hear faint murmuring sounds as I was climbing up the stairs but that's the least I care of right now.

Anger surged through my veins. I tried my best to calm down and take deep breaths but nothing seemed to work out.

I'm frustrated by the fact that Dadu didn't even consider discussing it with us that he wants me to be coronated so soon. And about Avi, well that's a different case altogether.

Avi has been my only friend and today he too betrayed me. I know it's his life and the decision is up to him to do whatever the fuck he wants but he didn't even consider me an important one in his life to share it with me.

The hurt and anger pang my heart in insufferable ways. I want to cry but tears seem to betray me and I want to scream but my voice won't come out of my throat. The creaking of the door breaks my trance.

Didn't I lock the door? Meera entered and shut the door behind her. I sighed audibly. I wanted to be alone for some time. She didn't move neither did she speak anything. She just crossed her arms and stood there staring right into my soul.

Will it be creepy if I say that her stares make me feel as if I am naked? God, what is happening? Will you please leave? I asked as calmly as I could. No answer.

Will you say something? No answer. Goddamnit Meera either say something or leave before I say something I might regret later, I yelled. She didn't even flinch at my voice she just came to me and... hugged me.

What the hell Meera, leave me. I snarled but her hold tightened. I wriggled in her hold trying to get out of it but, nothing worked. God, woman what do you eat? I questioned mentally.

Stop fighting it Yash, she yelled at me making me stop in my tracks. She stared at my face. I know you're hurt and frustrated but just spew it out, there's no fucking need to harm your mental health like this, you have much more to deal with rather than this bullshit.

Clear it out, talk to him and you'll see how simple things can get when you talk it out. Secondly, if you're anxious about the coronation thing, I told you once and I am repeating. She sighed audibly.

Ek baar jab ham kisi ka haath pakad lete hain, zindagi bhar nahin chhodte. Chahe phir uski marzi ho ya nahin. I'll have your back no matter what, just trust me for once. Why do you want to fucking deal with everything yourself? She growled and broke the hug.

Without even sparing me a glance she stormed out of the room. I need some time to wrap my head around what just happened, did she just barge into my room, advise me and leave ignoring me?

But then, why didn't I push her away when she did that?

At least what she said was not wrong, I will punish Avi for what he did. But, I need to talk to him first, he might be in some trouble.

Thank You, Meera, for pouring some sense into my beast of a brain.

I changed into my night clothes and walked out of the room. I could see my brothers sprawled on the couches, Advika and Meera were busy talking to someone on the call and Avi was pacing back and forth.

Bhai Sa, Abhi yelled as he noticed me and Avi ran straight into my arms. I'm sorry please let me explain Raj. His voice came out throaty. I didn't respond and sat on the couch along with my brothers.
