it's been a week, and she has been avoiding me since i dropped her home. I still don't know what I did wrong to deserve the silent treatment. i have recalled that moment inside my head for over a million times and i still can't think of anything, every time she would see me, she would change her route.
meanwhile I'm also searching for the person who slashed her tires. I told my team to check the cctv footage of the whole day but they couldn't find anything, it seems like whoever did this was smart enough to hack into our system to delete the footage of that particular moment. but they don't know who they're messing with, and they are gonna pay for their mistakes.
i didn't know what i should do to get her to talk to me again. that day i felt like i was finally making progress with her. and here we are again back to ground zero.
Extreme times call for extreme measures. I took my phone out of my pocket and called the last person who I wanted to tell that I am a lovesick idiot.
He picked up in 2-3 rings,
"Ajj Suraj kha se nikla hai, I didn't know you were capable of calling someone"
"Pheli baat Suraj humesha ek hi jagah se nikalta hai, dusri I'm coming to your house at 8. Be there"
" You do know that I'm your only friend right? You should show more respect towards me considering you need my help yet again."
He was right, he was my only friend throughout high school and college, I never bothered making more. I did not like socializing at all. I've known dhruv since we both were 10.
"Dhruv" this time I said it a little politely. "I'm not in the mood to play games right now, I'll explain everything, just be there when I come"
"Ok ok, I'll be there don't worry"
"Ok" And I cutted the call.
Then I continued working for a while trying to keep her out of my mind, and I did succeed for about 5 minutes. I could not let her affect my work. I thought to myself and went to the conference room.
The whole day after that went in a blur. It was finally time to tell dhruv about everything so I could get a little help with my "situation"
I rang the bell and he opened the door in a minute. He lived alone in this apartment. His family too lived in Jaipur but he preferred peace over family, and I respect him for that, not everybody has the courage.
The place was well maintained considering that the most clumsy person I know was living here. I sat on the sofa, while he sat in front of me.
" So what is it that you wanted to discuss" he cut to the chase.
