SIDDHARTH AARAV
I can still feel Ahana's warmness in mine. The way she hugged me out of blue made me blink twice then understand she is the one hugging. No complaints because I loved that tiny moment with her even though this isn't the best time to talk about. From her house she is freaking out about Tara and even skipped the treat actually we both skipped and informed Ma that something urgent came up.
The glass door slides open to see Tara, walk in holding a handbag and nothing less. Ahana jumped from the seat and ran towards her like she is going to win a race and clashed to her. Tara cried on her shoulder, and I called Alan to come by so he can drop Tara home or maybe both of them.
"Luke called me but I switched my phone off."
"We can think about it later."
She took the bag and walked to me eyeing me to go out. Alan is here and Tara got inside the car and Ahana agreed to come with me so I won't be alone only because Alan is with Tara or else she would have joined her. She thanked me and that is when I saw the caller ID in her phone screen.
Ayush.
"Ayu, I got some work to-"
"Work? You fucking skipped the dinner, and Roshan is waiting for you here."
"I know and hand the phone-"
"No wonder ma and papa are disappointed about you."
She hung the call and took the car keys from my hand and started the car. Damn this is hell ride, and I pray to be alive till end so that I can kiss her again and wipe that Roshan out of the picture soon. She didn't drive as I thought but her eyes were filled in tears, and I pulled the handbrake and stopped the car in middle of the road.
"Aarav what the fuck?"
"Either drive or cry."
"Disappointment to family, company and-"
"Not for me Heer."
She stopped talking and dropped her hands from the wheel. Wrong time again? I should have chosen a proper moment to share such lovely words, right? You fucked this up Siddharth. "You always hated me and hearing this from your mouth makes me weird out." True and so do I feel weird talking such things to her and why the fuck we hate each other. Something silly which took placed eight years ago.
(EIGHT YEARS AGO)
"Patel Jr, is missing." I said making Ayush eye me and sip the beer we stole from his papa's stock. I don't usually drink this thing, but Ayush made me, and few minutes later Vishal came by with his girlfriend. "Nora baby is here." I joked making him sigh and she sat in between me and him. We took an entire pack and sitting at a random roof top.
"Ahana didn't come?" If that bitch didn't come, then everything goes well and the second, she steps then that day is fucked up like hell. We heard the door open and saw two figures enter. Ahana and Tara are here, and another news is that Nora is friends with them because all study in same uni.
"Hand me one Ayu." He rolled his eyes and ignored her making Tara take four and sit with her. She is our Patel Jr's tail and without one the other one would be crying. "You're 17." Vishal said and her birthday is next week making her still kid. "Fuck off man." Tara waved her hand and opened the lid with her teeth. Is she high or what?
She connected her phone to the Bluetooth speaker and played lo-fi playlist making all groan. "Play something banger Patel." Vishal said and took the phone from her hand and changed the depressed song. She stood up and walked around the rooftop and I kept an eye on her because she will jump any moment.
When the song ended, we planned the end the chat and turned to see her standing on the edge with the beer bottle in her hand. Ayush gasped and called her name few times with she isn't moving from that place making all panic mostly Ayush because I don't know.
"Ahana, is this your plan?"
No answer and Tara took small steps towards her, but she leaned further to edge making her flinch backwards then Nora played some old Bollywood song making her dance and we saw Ahana dancing from the edge.
"For fuck's sake come here and dance girl."
"I want to be free."
"WHAT? AHANA PATEL STOP JOKING."
Tara screamed and we paused the song. I sat back down and sipped my beer because nothing is going to happen, she is mentally ill since birth. "I am calling the fire force right now." Ayush rushed down followed by Nora and Tara leaving me and Vishal stand here with her.
"Ahana you're free and please step down."
"Does this seem like suicide?"
"Fuck yeah."
"Then that's what I want Vishal."
He stepped back to me and I glanced to see her super close to edge and within few inches away from falling all the way 10 floors down to parking area. "I give up." Vishal ran down to others and now it's just me and her. I love playing silly games so let's see what is going on.
"Mind if I join?"
"Asshole."
She hissed and I stood beside her and drank my beer and then stole the bottle from her hand and gulped that down. Two empty bottles so I threw both down and it fell on the ground making the people down stare at us and scream.
"Why this act?"
"Nothing."
She took another step, and next step would be her heaven, and I saw the fire force team has reached down and it's safe but if she jumps few meters away then only useful because they're standing away. My hands wrapped her waist, and she wiggled to escape but I tightened the grip and pulled close to me and straight above to net spread down.
Then I stepped down and let the people know that I am helping her rather than pushing her down. My hands loosened and she turned to step down is when I pushed her down and she screamed falling then landed to the net down. I smirked and leaned to see reach down and people helping her out.
Ahana Patel tried to suicide is when Siddharth Aarav helped her and made her change her mind. Perfect line to her parents and others. I am the hero, and she is the mental ill person here. I saw white van and they picked her inside that drove away followed with Ayush's car. Before leaving she yelled,
"BENCHOD AARAV."
