Tujhe Bhula Diya

#9 Worried

Aaryahi POV:

What the hell does he think of himself? His such tactics might work with other girls to fall head over heels for him but not me. Advik Malhotra you still don't know about Aaryahi Roy Chowdhury. I'm not one of your bitches . Suddenly he stopped the bike in front of a restaurant. " I thought we were going home."
"We will but first let's fill your tummy."
" I'm not hungry."
" So why are you so grumpy then?"
"Oh so you take your every girl to a restaurant when they are grumpy?
"What? What are you talking about? I took whom to a restaurant?"
"Nothing let's get done with this."
I left the place leaving a confused Advik behind.

We are sitting at a table . We already ordered our food now the place held complete silence no one is speaking. Huh! I'm not going to speak to him. He was staring at me with knitted eyebrows. He tried to say something but shut his mouth. A few more minutes passed and I was getting bored now . This dumbhead is not even talking. He always keeps saying something. what happened to him now ? I was in my thoughts when I heard a female voice "Adiiii".
I looked at her. She looked exactly like the spoiled kid of rich parents. Now Advik's voice caught my attention," Nihar"
So this bitch is Nihar. She seems pretty close to him to call him Adiiii.

She came to our table. Advik stood up and hugged her with a never ending smile on his face. I so badly want to wipe that smile off his face.

They broke the hug. He was still smiling at her. Now she looked at me and scrunched her face.
"Who is she?"
"She is Aaryahi. Aaryahi Roy Chowdhury. She is a singer. Now working with Raunak. Aaryahi meet Niharika. She is my childhood friend. "

That girl forwarded her hand with a bitchy smile on her face,"Hi . Nice to meet you. You can call me Nihar . I'm Adi's Bestfriend."

I took her hand," Ohh I thought Ron and Vihaan were his best friends ."

"Yeah they are but I'm with him from junior High school." She said proudly. This bitch. My mood is already spoiled and now this bitch. And took at him man smiling like an idiot. It's irritating me more.

"Nihar are you with someone?"

"Yes I was here for my friend but she didn't show up. "

"It's fine. Eat with us then."

"Thank you so much adii."
He pulled a chair for her and ordered for her too. Wah he knows about her preferences too. Wonderful!

The food arrived. I was eating silently feeling a stare I looked up and saw him smiling at his Best friend and talking sweetly to her. I silently finished my food.

I got up from my seat and said with a smile,"Ok then you both enjoy urself I'll get going." Advik also stood up," Ok I will drop you."
"No no it's fine you enjoy."
"It's my responsibility. I hope you don't mind Nihar. Main tere liye cab bhej deta hun ok?" I watched her face becoming hard but she gave a tight lipped smile and nodded to him"Yeah sure"
He called the waiter and paid the bill. He bided good bye to his dear friend who was giving a tight lipped smile to Advik and semi glared smile to me . I walked out from the restaurant followed by Advik behind. He was wearing his helmet. And I was having mixed emotions - confusion, anger, disgust. My mind was messed up and I blurted out," Why did you left your Best friend for me?" I asked in a low voice.
"I didn't left her I already booked a cab for her. And moreover it's my responsibility to drop you home. "
Oh that means he only did this to fulfill his responsibility. It doesn't mean anything to him. Stupid of me why would it mean something to him. And why I'm making such a huge fuss about it. Who am I to be angry with him? We are not even close aquintance. He can do whatever he want. So why it is bothering me ? Now I'm confused as hell. What the hell is happening to me?

I flinched when Advik called my name loudly. I looked up at him only to find him staring at me with a questioning gaze.
" What happened? You alright? Kaha kho gayi thi?"
"Yeah yeah I'm perfect. Nothing happened. Let's get going. "
"Ok wear it first. "
He made me wear the helmet. His fingers touched my skin. Damnnn his fingers.....fuck.........
I again heard him clearing his throat and I opened my eyes. When the hell did I closed them .
"Chalein "
I nodded.
I hopped on his bike holding his shoulder for support he started his bike.

I was now sitting on my balcony wearing my comfy clothes listening to Kuch To Hai by Aarman Mallik.

Aahatain kaisi yeh aahatain sunta hun aaj kal aye dil bataa
Dastake dete hai dastake kyun ajnabi se pal aye dil bataa
Kuch to hai jo neend aye kam
kuch to hai jo aankhein hai nam
Kuch to hai jo tu keh de to
Haste haste mar jaye hum

A tear rolled down her eyes without realising. She quickly wiped it off as soon as she noticed. And kept listening to the song quietly.

Mujhse zyada mere jaisa koi hai to hai tu
Phir na jaane dil mera kyun tujhko na de saku

Advik POV:

Kuch to hai jo dil ghabraye
Kuch to hai jo saans na aye
Kuch to hai jo hum hotho se kehte kehte keh na paye

I was playing my guitar while signing along with it. She was acting a little off today. Why what went wrong? Did I do something?or is it not about me? Does she have any boyfriend and she was pissed at him? Or was it something else?Why is all this bothering me so much? Why I'm so bothered because she didn't smiled? She looked sad. Why? Oh god! Mera kya hoga ?

Jo hamare darmiyan hai usko hum kya kahe
Ishq kya hai ek leher hai aao isme bahe
Kuch to hai jo hum hai khoye
Kuch to hai jo tum na soye
Kuch to hai jo hum dono yun haste haste itna roye

I was lost in my thoughts when my phone rang it was Nihar. I picked up the call.

Hii Adi.

Hey hi Nihar. You reached home?

Yeah I called you to inform. And btw are you free this week?

Ummm...I still don't have any plans.

Ok then we are going for a campaign with my friends. Ask Raunak and Others also if they want to join.

Campaign but where? And I am not sure about Ron and others .
I got a call from Aaryahi. She is calling me at this hour. Is everything ok? I was about to pick it up but before I could the call went off.

You ask so many questions. It's a surprise. Let me know if you are coming ok?

O_Ok . Bye then Good night.
I quickly cut the call without waiting for her response and called her but it was switched off. I tried few more times but still nothing. My mind started whirling with negetive thoughts . I called her again. Still nothing. I thought to call Ron but that bitch didn't pick up. I called her again still nothing. What do you mean you called me a few times ago and now your phone is switched off wow. She was already upset with God knows what and now this. I was getting restless so I took my bike keys and went for her place. The night clouds were gloomy . Maybe it will rain soon. I speeded my bike. I reached her place and called her again. Fuck still switched off.

I hurried to her door and to my surprise it was opened . My heart beat accelerated more . Without wasting any further more time I entered her house and searched for her but didn't found any tress of her . At this point I thought I was going to faint out of anxiety and my fast heart rate . I ran out the house to my bike but saw my hands trembling and decided not to take my bike. I left my bike there and went to search for her like a madman in the streets. The sky was roaring. It will start raining soon. Please be safe starlight please be safe.

I was searching here and there for her with a racing heart beat and non-functioning mind. Suddenly I saw a girl lying unconscious in the side of road and e cute dog next to her barking helplessly. I rushed towards her and to my utter misfortune it was her.
