4. Hospital Trip

4. Hospital Trip: 

2 days later, in Mumbai:

"Abhay, you need to apologize to Anisha. That was too much. Bacchi and all, it was too much bro." Shreyas said through the video call.

"Exactly Abhay, it was just their first day there, and you said all of that. At least Shub was there, otherwise knowing you, and her, the fight would've continued." Ishan added.

"How do you know her?" Abhay asked.

"She's Ritika Bhabhi's close friend, and she's like Rohit Bhai's younger sister." Ishan's eyes disappeared from the phone and fell upon a figure in front of him. 

Ritika Bhabhi.

"Abhay, Shreyas, I'll call you later, okay." He ended the call.

"Ritika Bhabhi, aap yahan?" He asked.

"Yeah. Ishan, I wanted to talk to you about  something."

"Yeah, for sure, Bhabhi. What's up?"

"Kashvi."

Ishan's expressions changed. From a smile, he was now serious.

"What about Kashvi?"

"She's hurt, Ishan. She's hurt."

"What do you mean, she's hurt?" He asked.

"She told me everything that happened between you and her. From you giving her coffee, but then you just switching the topic to Anisha. Kashvi had thought you wanted to talk to her, but then you just switched to Anisha. Yeah, asking why Anisha didn't come is normal, but in that process you hurt Kashvi."

"I...I didn't mean to, Bhabhi. I promise, I wouldn't do anything to hurt Kashvi."

"I know you wouldn't, Ishan. But you need to fix things. She's new to the staff team, she told me that she'd heard people talking about her. Someone had even said that she's only here to mess things up, not really work. She thought maybe you'd be the friend, but then you leaving her hanging really hurt her."

"I did all of that and I didn't even realize I hurt her, in the process. Thank you for telling me, Bhabhi. I'll fix things, now."

"I know you will, I trust you." 

Ishan looked around the field, trying to search for Kashvi. Eventually, he found her, sitting in a bench, all alone, staring into the space.

"Hey Kashvi." Ishan said, sitting down next to her on the bench.

"Hi, Ishan."

"I just wanted to ask you, something."

"Everything okay?"

"Yeah. I wanted to ask you, if you wanted to go out for coffee, in the evening, tomorrow?"

"Yeah. Sure." Kashvi smiled at him.

"It's a date then, I'll see you tomorrow, Kashvi." Ishan said, picking up his bag and leaving.  

As he left, he turned back and smiled at her, then continued walking away.

"Well , well, someone's going on a date then?" Kanishka said, sitting beside Kashvi.

Kashvi, was blushing. "Spill. Come on, tell me."

"He just came up, right now. and asked if I wanted to go out for coffee...with him."

Fazilka:

"Well, go apologize to her, Abhay!" Shubman said.

"Uh...okay. I'll just practice first."

"Okay." Shubman sat down next to Abhay.

"Hey, Anisha. I'm really sorry, about what happened earlier. Something went wrong before, and I took out my anger on you."
