When paths collide again

1) PERVERT

Aratrika pov

Wow.....

So many people.....

I reached delhi this place is so crowded
Right now I'm waiting for the metro

Maybe I shouldn't have refused when they offered to give me a ride

No, I can't do that when they've already done so much

After some time the metro arrived I entered the metro and settled down

Flashback

On the day of my grandmother's funeral, I took on the responsibilities as her only remaining family

She's very mature for her age

Mrs sharma must have been like a mother to her but the child won't even let herself cry

They're all grown up at the age of 16

She's NOT an adult yet, but she'll survive

But she's still a kid.....

Poor thing

That was when Mrs Sunita Thakur my grandmother's former student approached me

I am so sorry to hear that your beloved grandmother has passed away. I know she meant a great deal to you and that you will miss her terribly. I hope that you will be able to remember her with joy and not too much sadness. I'm sorry for your loss. I'm here for you

Come live with me Aratrika. When I was going through a difficult time. Mrs sharma was the only person who helped me. She'll always be my savior and mentor

But...
Before I could speak something, she hold my hands

You may feel like an adult, but you're at an age where you need someone to look after you

Although she was close to my grandmother, she's still a stranger to me....
Is it right to take advantage of her hospitality? What if I'm being selfish?

At the very least, it was your grandmother's last wish to watch over you until you became independent

Aratrika will you let me stay by your side?

Countless thoughts crossed my mind. But her warm hands seemed to thaw my frozen heart

Present

Does this mean that Mr Thakur knows about me? he approves?

Didn't she also say she had a son my age?

I wonder what he's like

If he's aunty's son he must be a warm person

I hope we get along

Suddenly click sound grabbed my attention the person sitting besides me was clicking photos of the girl standing infront of her ewww pervert

What? ..... Mister what are you doing
You were taking pictures of the girl in front of you right?
I said it loudly

What?!! What kind of......

How dare you try and pick a fight with me?
he shouted at me

Wait a minute did he really take pictures? The girl asked me

Yes.......

Mister? Show me your phone?

This girl claims to have seen you taking pictures of me!!! She said while looking at me

What? Why the heck would you need my phone?

I can't believe this...... Why would I do suck a thing at my age? Do you have proof???

So show me your phone right now

You....... Out of my way he pushed me with his shoulder and started moving away

Suddenly someone stepped on his foot and he tripped down

Thud!!

Ahhhhh......
Owww my back

Hey you bastard just what do you think you're doing, standing like that in a crowded subway?

You're the one who wasn't looking, so don't blame it on me.

What...... Th_that......

Oh I thought he was helping us but.....

He kick that the phone towards us...... Wait did he just do that on purpose??

What....... What was I thinking? I have to get off here I ran out of the metro

I started walking and I remember what she said

Flashback

"Our house is slightly far from the station, so it won't be easy to find "

I can ask my son to pick up from the station she said

No no no it's fine I'll manage I said

Are you sure? She said

Yeah it's fine I said

Flashback ends

Maybe I shouldn't have refused when she aked me but I can't be burden on then they're already doing a lot for me

What a picturequeplace

The house look so fancy

Now that I think about it doesn't her husband work look so fancy

Now that I think about it doesn't her husband work at a hospital as an assistant director....?

Her house must be towards the end

Huh?

Isn't that guy from earlier?

Does he live here?

We all weren't sure if he did it on purpose or not....

But after seeing how he tripped the old man and passed us the phone

I knew it was intentional.

He must have been helping us right.....?

How nice of him

He stopped and turn around he looked at me
And then again started walking

After few minutes

HEY

What are you doing he said

What do... You mean?
(Why so rude?)

Are you for real? Why do you keep following me?!!!
He yelled at me
