Atharva came to his room furious. What his mom had saidreally upset him, and he needed some time alone to calm down. He stormed into his room, slamming the door behind him.

As Atharva entered his room, he noticed something unexpected. Dhruvi was setting up her clothes in Atharva's closet. This sight made him even more angrier. Without thinking, he walked towards the closet, frustration boiling inside him.

In that moment, Atharva's anger got the best of him. He impulsively pulled out all of Dhruvi's clothes from the closet and threw them onto the floor. Clothes flew through the air, creating a chaotic mess.

Dhruvi was confused for his behaviour.

" Never mess with my things . You are allowed to stay here, but never touch anything again." He furiously said . Atharva saw his favorite shirt in Dhruvi's suitcase, which he had thrown away 6 yrs ago because it was gift from her .

Atharva took a lighter from the drawer .

" What are you doing ? " Dhruvi asked worriedly but he ignored her and burned the shirt on the balcony in a fit of anger and said " Even if the fire goes out, my rage will never end. From now I don't want to see any thing from the past otherwise the result will be more worse " And he left the room .

Dhruvi stepped in and extinguished the flames with water . Tears were rolling down on her cheeks ,that shirt held a special meaning for Atharva and was a symbol of their friendship, which is now burnt.

Time skip ..
It was getting very late at night and Atharva still didn't came . His mother was worried about him . Then he heard the door bell , she hurriedly open the gate finding Atharva drunk. She offer him her hands but he refused it .

Atharva stumbled into the study room, his mother's worry turned to deep concern. She rushed to his side, helping him steady himself on the couche . Atharva's eyes were glazed over, and his movements were unsteady, a clear indication that he had consumed far too much alcohol.

His mother's heart sank as she looked at her son .

She gently sat down next to Atharva, her voice filled with a mixture of worry and firmness. "Atharva, my dear, I am sorry for what happened . I was so worried when you didn't come home on time. Let's talk about what led you to this state."

Atharva's head hung low, his voice filled with sadness. ", Ma. Just leave me "

Atharva's mother knocked the door of Dhruvi's room.Unlocking the door Dhruvi was surprised to see her mother there at such an unusual and late hour. She asked, "Mom, what's going on? Why are you here?"

Atharva's mother took a deep breath and explained the whole situation to Dhruvi. She told her about Atharva's late arrival, his drunken state, and how she helped him to his room. Dhruvi listened intently, her concern growing with each word.

Realizing that Atharva was angry with her, Atharva's mother turned to Dhruvi and said, "Dhruvi, I need your help. Atharva is upset with me right now, but I want to make sure he's okay. Can you please bring him some lemonade and some food? I think it might help him feel better."

Dhruvi couldn't resist her mother's plea. She went to the kitchen ." He never drinks , what happend to him today ? Even he was angrier at that time and now too . And everyone says right I can't deny anyone . Why I making this things for him after the way he behaves with me in afternoon . ? I don't want to show him my affection, Please God just do something and let me leave a peaceful life "

In Study room .

Even after in drunk state , Atharva still was pouring wine to his glass. He wanted to remove all the memories of past but still his brain was reflecting his and Dhruvi's memories . He didn't love her , he loved Nandini but why he can't get her out of his mind .

" Atharva" and he heard the voice of someone he least expected to be here .

"Ma told me to bring you food and lemonade " she said .

Which only pisses Atharva, why is she caring for him ? He tightly gripped the glass which result it to break in his hands .
Atharva held onto the broken glass, Dhruvi's eyes widened in shock and concern. She could see the pain in his eyes and the fear started to grip her heart. In that moment, she knew she had to stay calm and find a way to diffuse the situation.

Taking a deep breath, Dhruvi gently placed her hands on Atharva's, trying to loosen his grip. "Atharva, please let go. You're hurt, and we need to take care of your hand," she pleaded, her voice filled with genuine worry.
Atharva's grip slowly loosened as he looked into Dhruvi's eyes . Blood started flowing , the smell of blood and alcohol made Dhruvi shivered. It started suffocating her, panicking her she started recalling all the memories of that night..
