#32: she moved on ??

It's been a week since the camp started, and all these days, Rudra had been trying to talk to Aarohi, to be close to her. Sometimes he even flirted with her, but Aarohi's trust in him was shattered. Despite her resolve, she found herself occasionally swayed by his words, a small part of her heart still responding to the Rudra she once loved.

Every morning, Rudra would find subtle ways to be around Aarohi, whether it was during breakfast or while they were working. He would compliment her, share little jokes, and sometimes their eyes would meet, sparking the chemistry they once had.

Aarohi, on the other hand, was caught in a whirlwind of emotions. She remembered their past, the pain, and the betrayal she felt, but Rudra's persistent efforts were chipping away at her defenses. She was torn between holding on to her mistrust and giving in to the lingering feelings she had for him.

During one of their breaks, Rudra approached Aarohi with a cup of coffee. "Hey, I got this for you," he said, offering her the cup with a hopeful smile.

Aarohi hesitated but took the coffee. "Thanks," she muttered, avoiding eye contact.

Throughout the week, Rudra found himself constantly on edge, consumed by jealousy. His friend Vicky, who had a habit of flirting with Aarohi, irritated him to no end. It wasn't just Vicky; Rudra also noticed that Ravi, Aarohi's senior, was always trying to be close to her. Ravi's intentions were clear-he liked Aarohi, and this knowledge made Rudra's blood boil.

Every time Vicky made a playful comment towards Aarohi or tried to engage her in conversation, Rudra's fists would clench. He tried to hide his irritation, but it was evident in his tense posture and the sharp looks he gave Vicky. Vicky, oblivious to Rudra's feelings, continued his light-hearted banter with Aarohi, completely unaware of the storm brewing within Rudra.

Ravi, on the other hand, was a different challenge. He was always around Aarohi, offering his help, sharing meals, and making her laugh. Rudra could see the way Ravi looked at Aarohi-with genuine affection and hope. It gnawed at him, making him feel helpless and angry. Every time he saw them together, a surge of possessiveness overwhelmed him.

At night, Rudra was restless, thoughts of Aarohi swirling in his mind. Unable to sleep, he went out to the balcony and stared at the sky. His gaze shifted to the garden below, where he saw Aarohi and Ravi sitting closely, engaged in an animated conversation. The sight made his blood boil with anger and jealousy, but he knew confronting them would be futile-Aarohi wouldn't listen to him.

Returning to his room, Rudra saw Vicky getting ready. "Are you going out?" Rudra asked.

Vicky nodded, "Yes, on a date."

"With whom?" Rudra inquired.

"Jiya, you know, Aarohi's friend," Vicky replied.

Rudra sighed, "I thought you liked Aarohi."

Vicky put down his perfume, walked over to Rudra, and said, "Bhai, why didn't you tell me you and Aarohi have a past? That's why I'm following the bro rule and moving on from my little attraction."

Rudra laughed, "How do you know about me and Aarohi?"

"Jiya told me," Vicky said, then left for his date.

As Vicky and Jiya were leaving, Jiya stopped and noticed Aarohi sitting with Ravi. She remarked, "Just look at them."

Vicky looked and asked, "What about them? Are they together?"

Jiya shrugged, "I don't know. Aarohi never tells me anything about Ravi, whether she likes him or not."

Vicky asked, "Did she tell you about Rudra? Does she still have feelings for him?"
