Naini POV
After my brunch with Chay I went back home cause both Shailu and Tristi are free today and are visiting. While going back I picked up items to make Tristi's favourite brownie cake with chocolate wafers and chips.
I got home and cooked while Tristi and Shailu were out for some open air work-out . I kept the cake in freezer and went out to call both of my friends, I saw they were in a deep discussion and was about to join them when I heard my phone ringing and picked it without seeing the caller name.
"Hello?* I asked
"Is this Miss. Naini Sharma?" A strangers voice says and I check the caller ID to find it's my brother's number.
"Yes. Who is this?" I asked
"Hi ma'am I'm calling from St. Tessa hospital, Los Angeles. Your brother Mr. Nihal Sharma and Indian diplomat visiting our country on officially purpose has been shot in a mafia fight gone wrong and is undergoing a surgery as we speak. I'm calling to inform you of his condition and to ask you to come here as soon as you can as per Mr. Sharma's request." The lady said and I'm frozen in my place cause MY BROTHER is in surgery because of a fucking mafia fight gone wrong!
"Ok, thanks for information and I'll start right now" I cut the call and call mom
"Hey mom..."
"Hi beta tell me?"
"We Need to go to los Angeles right now... Bhaiya has been shot and is in surgery "
"WHAT? How did this happen?"
"I'll explain later just pack clothes for a week and tell dada also while I see for a way for us to fly there in this short notice"
"Ok"
I cut my mom call only to hear Shailu shouting
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR BROTHER?"
" You already heard me Bob. Do you want to come with me to los Angeles?"
"Yes" both of them said at the same time so I opened my laptop to book tickets for 5 while I called vikky to see if he can do something about it.
"Hi.. I need a favour" I said as soon as he picked. " I need a ride to los Angeles now. Is there anything you can do?"
"Hmm" a deep voice replied.
And cut the call. After 10 mins I got a message from Vikky saying to bring all of us to his private airstrip so that we can fly in a private flight and I sent back a quick ok and called mom to reach the place and took Bob and Tri to the place thanking them for packing my things for me while I spoke with Vikky.
We reached the the Airstrip to find an unfamiliar flight in front of us, Vikky, Mayur and Devika were are all standing there. My mom was already crying so I asked dad to take her in the flight while I went to Vikky and hugged him.
"Hey... Thanks for all of this. I'll call you and update you on the situation." I said and kissed him on cheek
"Hi Nina... I'm always here for you and you know that... Take care and keep me posted" he replied and kissed my hand and waved at both the Ranas briefly wondering where the elder one is but I shut my thoughts as soon as they entered my mind and entered the flight with Shailu and Tristi by my side. Shailu was crying and I suddenly understood how deep her liking towards my brother is while Tristi was trying to clam her but also looking at Vikram with longing eyes. I'm happy my friends found there forever partners and I will kill Vikky if he messes with my bff. I need to distract myself so I opened my Kindle and started re-reading a fantasy romance book named Twisted Love by Ana Hung, it's a second chance troop and I love the way the Male lead left everything to just go and win over the Female leads trust and he broke it...
I wandered the flight while reading and I found myself at the end of the flight where there was a door and curiously in open the door to see what in there. As soon as I entered the room and realised what I'm seeing I dropped the book in my hand and was staring because in front of me stood Mr. Reyansh Rana who was reading a book while laying on a bed. He scrambled to stand the moment he saw me dropping his book to in the process.
"What?... What are you doing here?" I asked... My voice sounded strange to me.
"You weren't supposed do see me..." He said rubbish his neck with his hand, a nurvous trick used to do.
"What's that supposed to mean?" I snapped at him.
"Well long story short Vikram's plane is being used by his parents and I heard you needed a flight to los Angeles and I offered mine but my insurance company has a clause that I have to be on the plane everytime it flies so I can in here and hid myself in this back room out of your way, because I didn't want to add to your feelings. I just wanted to help." He rambled so fast that I almost didn't understand it.
"What about your work ?" I asked
"My work can wait until you are fine" he said.
I was soo overwhelmed by his words that I ALMOST forgave him but I cleared my throat
"Thanks for doing this, it means a lot to me" I said
" Anything for you Fire." He used the nickname he gave me all those years ago. And I moved my heart so
"Maybe after I make sure my brother is alright we can talk?.. I owe you this much."
"You owe me nothing. This is my pleasure to help you. I am willing to wait till end of my life for you." He said and I nodded and picked mine and his book from floor.
"You are reading Twisted Love?"
"You are reading Twisted Love?"
We both asked eachother at the same time.
"Yes because I needed a distraction." I replied still unsure of what I'm feeling.
"Great ... Actually this is the first time I'm reading it cause you love fictional men. So I'm going to read all your favourite book and understand how you would like me to be" he said and that actually brought years to my eyes.
"I'm going back to the front, you can join us if you want to" I said
" No... This is your family matter and I would like to first make you trust me again before meeting your family" he said with soo much confidence then added a small.. "You do want me to do that right?"
"Maybe" I said and left
