Days went by like that,they didn't meet for almost a month and could barely talk....he would get annoyed at her sometimes....even though Harshita understood he was busy and frustrated by work..she just wanted 5-10 minutes from him...either she had meetings when he called or he didn't answer when she called

"Hel-"
"I'll call you in an hour"he said
"It's 10.30...are you not done yet?"Harshita asked
"Do you think I am joking?I am in the studio...not able to figure out things and on top of that you are calling AGAIN AND AGAIN...I TOLD YOU NA I'LL CALL YOU WHEN I AM DON-"
"ENOUGH Darshan...stop"she interrupted
"I won't listen this time...and fyki this is the first time I have called today...itni hi problem hai na toh I won't now...I am sorry for the disturbance I caused...I will not do that again"Harshita said
"Fine"Darshan said and she immediately hung up

Harshita stared at her phone for sometime hoping he would call back..but he didn't.
She turned to the side and hugged a pillow, letting her tears out

"It's going to be okay Harshita"

She wiped her tears and went to Rishabh and Piyushi's room to divert her mind for sometime

Next day:

Harshita woke up and checked her phone

14 missed calls from Darshan
43+ messages

She read his messages and left them on seen

"Good morning"she greeted her father and brother
"Morning"
"Good morning princess"Pawan said
"Harshita....aur princess?"Rishabh pressed his lips together gaining a slap on his arm
"Meri bacchi ko subah subah pareshan mat kar"Jayashree shouted
"Maine kuch bola bhi nahi bhai"he said
Piyushi and Jayashree too sat on the dining table and their maid served them breakfast

"Harshu...can you drop me today?"Piyushi asked
"Sure..why not"Harshita smiled
"Huh"Rishabh

3 days passed by....Harshita didn't reply to him and ignored his calls

She came down after freshening up
"Maa"
"Harsha look who is here"Pawan said and she spotted Darshan sitting with her father...He slowly smiled at her

Harshita managed to resist the urge to hug him after seeing him after a month

"Hiii"Darshan got up
"H-hi"she pretended to be normal
"Come here"Pawan said
"Uhm.. Actually...I have to prepare designs...raat tak bhejni hai..you carry on..I'll go"Harshita said and went up...Rishabh who just came understood something was off
"Namaste Darshan Bhai"He said grinning
"Namaste"Darshan smiled

Pawan excused himself to pick up a call

"So...I guess you two had a fight?"Rishabh asked
"Ah..woh.. actually...h-ha..mat-"
"Arey...why are you scared... marunga thodi aapko..chill"Rishabh laughed
"Waise bhi it's ok to fight....main aur Piyu toh hafte me 10 baar jhagadte hai"He added
"I don't know what went wrong..but..I think now that you are here...you should make it up..right?"
"I am here for that only!but she didn't even talk to me...I deserve it anyway"Darshan said
"Don't say that...I don't think she is in her room"Rishabh said as he guessed that her room door was open
"Terrace pe jao..wahi hogi"Rishabh said
"T-terrace?Mai?"Darshan got up
"Nahi mai...kya baat karte ho"
"Chalo"Rishabh said and Darshan followed him to the terrace

"Shh"Rishabh pushed him inside silently and locked the door from outside

Girl was looking at the beautiful view.... Mumbai looks heavenly in the night...Darshan went and stood beside her

She looked at him and then looked away
"I am....sorry"He said in low voice...looking down

"Harshita...look at me please...I am really sorry...idk why I behaved like that...why did I even say tha-"
"Why are you here?"She asked...not facing him
"To apologi-"
"No need of that...I should be the one to apologise...I am sorry for disturbing you..I hope your work is going good as I don't disturb you now"She said
"Harshu please"he held her hand
"Just go Darshan"she shrugged it off
"I won't...not until you forgive me"he said
"Fine"she said and went towards the door but it was locked

"Why is the door locked?"She glared at him
"I don't know"he said and she rolled her eyes

Harshita went and stood far away from him but he made his way towards her

"Go away Darshan"she said,looking around
Darshan held her hands gently
"I am really sorr-"he said
"Did you even miss me?"Harshita asked...meeting his teary eyes
"Ofc I did....so freaking much...even though I was busy...the first thought that came to my mind after working was yours...I called you 100 times but y-"
"You called me 100 time when I was mad...and you didn't have 5 minutes to talk to me w-when I used to call"she said and he looked down
"I-i..."he tried to speak but failed then looked at her
Harshita locked her eyes with his
"I-i can't take your ignorance any-"

She interrupted him with a tight hug...not wasting a second,he wrapped his arms around her

"I understand you were busy...you...you were frustrated due to work...but it doesn't mean you will shout at me...it doesn't mean that you will take it out on me everytime!Tumhara pressure samajhti hu Darsh...but..har baar tum aise chilla nahi-"
"Idk why I behaved like that...i-.. actually bohot complicated hogaya tha sabkuch..and..it came out on you several times...I am so sorry for that"he caressed her back
Harshita pulled out from the hug after sometime
"It will never happen again"he wiped a tear by his thumb and kissed her forehead
.
.
They stood there watching the view...it was beautiful until he saw a man
"Who is he?"Darshan asked
He waved at Harshita when she saw him..she waved back smiling.
He dramatically bowed and went inside his apartment as she chuckled
"He is Krish"She replied
"Krish is ashleel.."Darshan said as Krish was shirtless
Harshita laughed
"It's not funny"he said being annoyed
"C'mon...I go to his gym sometimes... that's why we know eachother...nothing else"She said
"Does he workout being shirtless too?"Darshan asked
"No..I mean not when there are girls"She answered
"Thank god"he whispered raising his eyebrows and looked away
"You are so cute Darshan"Harshita pinched his cheek laughing more
"I am not cute"He said....visible irritation in his voice
She nodded and laughed harder
