Bada Pachtaoge (On Hold)

Chapter 17

"Aleya."

~~~~~~

Sumedh's POV

I have settled pretty well here in Vrindavan. Di is working in R. K. Industries as the CEO's personal assistant and dau is working in the same company as the manager. Kinshuk bhaiya is still working in Queen's Company. 

My therapy sessions are still going on. I have to eat lots of medicines. I don't want it but it is for my good only. I am so much better than before.

I would wake up, cry, eat because di forced me and then go back to sleep. That had become my life. I don't know how but somehow, they managed to bring me back. Di and dau were with me every second by my side. They are gem.

Yes, I am not same as I was before, but it's so much better.

(A/n: So much better than seeing tears falling from those precious eyes 24/7.)

I am that much better that I can sleep alone. I get frequent nightmares. My scars are fading slowly but some scars will remain permanent. 

Right now I am in college in canteen. Yes, I am in college. I can pursue my dream to be a Cardiologist. I have this lecture free cause it is cancelled. I have got many friends here. Devesh, Kartikey, Manisha, Zalak, Neerav and Harsh. 

I was doing my assignment. I heard someone clearing their throat. I looked up.

Ale: Hello, mai Aleya.

I looked at her and gave a small smile.

Sum: Mai Sumedh.

Ale: Mere dost banoge? Please please please please please.

I chuckled at her cute antics. 

Sum: Jarur Aleya.🤭

She grinned.

We shared a lot of things with each other like our likings on different topics. I came to know that she is also from Delhi. She moved here because of here mother's transfer. She don't have her father. I felt bad for her. I too told her about me living with my siblings and brother in law. 

I didn't told her about me being a married man, It was not needed. I want to keep it as private as I can. I really don't know we will divorce or not. What about our separate marriages. I don't know about our future. 

I shook my head lightly pushing my thoughts away enjoying the current situation. I really got so comfortable with her by having a proper conversation. I must say she is a amazing company. 

Ale: Ab mujhe jana chahiye. Lecture ka time ho raha hai.

I looked at my watch. I didn't realize time went so soon. I have my this lecture free.

Sum: Thik hai. Fir milenge.

I gave her a small smile. 

Ale: Jaldi milenge.

She went to her classroom.

Few days later

Ale: Tum bura to nahi manoge agar mai kuch puchu to?

I nodded simply.

Ale: Tum theek ho?

Sum: Mujhe kya hua? Mai to bilkul theek hu.

I smiled nervously. I can't tell her I was thinking about my past.

Ale: Kya aaj hum restaurant jaa sakte hai dinner ke liye? Agar tum raazi ho to?

She saw how my expressions changed. I was thinking how to say her no. I don't want to break her heart either by saying no. What should I do?
