The phone dropped from her hands and it got difficult to even start driving. Her heart thumped.

"No... Dharam...... No.... Pl..ease....", an unbridled pain shot up her heart almost ready to engulf her but she fought against it giving herself hope that he'll be back. She somehow managed to reach home and before she could unlock the house there was a voice. She so hoped it to be Dharam. And she turned.......

There was Vishal, standing right in front of the garden gate. He did not wait for her to open it and just jumped over it.

"Vishal..... Tum!!"

"Kya hua? Kisi aur ko expect kar rahi thi!?", he had a chewing gum in his mouth not because he likes it but because he knew she hates it.

"What!?"

"Aap akele aayi college se isiliye poocha....."

"What are you doing here!?"

"Ye sawaal to mujhe bhi karna chaahiye aapse... What the fuck are you doing!?"

"Vishal just mind your language and GET OUT of my house...", she said in a muffled yet strong voice.

He nodded in no and walked closer to her. "Mere dad ko jail kyun bhejA!!", he questioned.

"I didn't send him in there but I wish I had!! Now leave!!"

"Kyun jaaun main haan!! Kyun!! Aap bataaiye kyun bheja mere dad ko jail!!", he shook her by her arms.

She pushed him away. "Because that's where he deserved to be....."

He nodded his head in disappointment. "Right mom... Oh sorry... You asked me not to call you mom right!? So... Right Manini Jindal... Agar mere dad jail me rehna deserve karte hain to aap kya deserve karti hain!!?? Respect to bilkul bhi ni!!"

She fisted her hands at his audacity and pushed him hard. "VISHAL!! LEAVE!!"

"Main bataata hoon aapne unko jail kyun bheja... Kyunki mere dad se mann jo bhar gaya tha aapka..."

"Whatt....."

"Yeah tabhi to early morning aapke ghar se koi doosra hi mard baahar aaya...."

"VISHAL!!", she slapped him hard. "Dare you say anything about me!!"

"Dharam sir the na....!!", he got up rubbing his face. "Aapki favourite student, my ex-darling, Anupamaa.... Unki bhi to favourite thi... Itna kuch common tha how did I miss... College me unse has has ke baatein karna, Lunch break me unke saath lunch karna ghoomna... Kaise dhyaan ni diya maine UNTIL  today when I saw him coming out of your house!!"

"I don't owe you an explanation for what I do in my life... So now get out of my place Vishal!!", she fumed more.

The neighbours by her side loomed over their walls to hear what's going on. She felt ashamed to even have this discussion outside home but she couldn't even invite him in.

"By the way what type of fucking place do you own....!!", he came closer to her ears and whispered, "Can I get my girlfriends in here? Will pay you the rent on per hour basis...!!", he but his lower lip and gave sullen expressions.

"Vishal!! Dare you sayy that again!!", her eyes went so red that it felt she might just cry blood and not tears. Her skin crawled to even think what all he must be doing with all the girls he just talked about. Not that she cared or she could stop him but she felt hideous to know he turned out to be like his father.

"You took advantage of... Living alone... No wonder you couldn't stay with Dad!! But I won't let this happen!! Agar mere Dad jail me hain na to aapko bhi kabhi khush nahi rehne doonga main!!", he pointed fingers at her. She was breathing heavy.
