SIYA'S POV

My heart stopped for a moment as Arjun's words hit me hard. I tried to stay calm, but inside, I was a mess of emotions.

"Arjun, please, just listen... I didn't do anything wrong. I was only trying to"

I said, my voice shaking.

But he cut me off in the middle.

"Don't even try to explain yourself, Siya. You're just a manipulative and selfish woman. You broke your promise. How could I be so stupid to trust a girl like you?"

His words felt like knives, each one cutting deeper. I fought back tears but couldn't hold them all in.

"No, Arjun, you don't understand-"

"Understand what?"

He shouted.

"That you've been betraying me? That you've been playing me for a fool? I should have known. Now your true colors are visible. You are exactly as I thought you were in the beginning. Opportunist!"

His tone was harsh.

Each of his accusations hurt more than the last, like tiny knives piercing my heart. My hands trembled as I reached out, trying to close the gap between us.

"Please try to understand, Arjun. You are so angry that you are unable to think properly. Listen to me, please. Your family cares about you. Your father misses you, and your mother... she loved you so much. I was just trying to help you to connect with them."

But mentioning his mother seemed to make him even angrier. His face twisted with rage as he grabbed me by the neck and slammed me against the wall.

I gasped, struggling to breathe as his grip tightened. The world started to go dark, and panic set in.

"Don't you dare talk about her!" he roared.

I tried my best to free myself from Arjun's grip, but he had used all his strength. I was also trying to free myself from the grip of Arjun.

"Keep your mouth shut when you don't know something! It looks like you've become quite good friends with Kimaya Rathore in just a few hours, yes? And why it shouldn't be? After all, both of you are the same kind of person. Cheaters and liars!"

At this moment, I could see only hatred for me in Arjun's eyes.

"Arjun... please..."

I tried to talk, but I couldn't. Desperation filled my eyes as I weakly tried to push his hand away. The room felt like it was closing in on me, and I felt utterly helpless.

Then, suddenly, he let me go. I saw the shock in his eyes, and a hint of guilt crossed his face. He stepped back, his hands shaking.

But now it doesn't matter!

I slid down the wall, gasping for air, tears streaming down my face. I tried to calm myself, my chest heaving as I fought to regain control.

Arjun watched me, his anger starting to fade into regret. But before he could say anything, I, driven by a mix of fear and anger, slapped him hard across the face.

The slap echoed through the room, and Arjun staggered back, stunned.

I glared at him, my face showing both anger and pain.

Today, Arjun crossed all his limits.

"How dare you?" I yelled, my voice rough but fierce.

"How dare you treat me like this? I tried to help you, and this is how you repay me. I can't believe how you could do this to me!"
