HIS PEERLESS HALF

CHAPTER - 17 (At the edge of Disaster)

AADHYA'S POV

It was a regular afternoon with loads of files scattered on my bed and my head thrown in my palms.

I got up from my bed and head downstairs.

"Hey, wassup?" Arjun asked while climbing up the stairs.

I showed him a thumbs up. "How come Almighty Arjun using the stairs today? And why you are at home, I mean don't you have to go office?" I asked still running.

"That stupid vihaan is using the lift. That brat didn't wait for me. I had to urgently take a file and present it to your devil brother but this brat-this brat didn't let me use the elevator." He yelled climbing the stairs.

I nodded sympathetically--like he could see me-- and walked in the living room.

Aditya was shoving breakfast in his mouth. I dragged a chair and settled on it. I began to fill my glass with water.

"Ain't you going to office today?" I asked once I gulped the water.

"I have to....." he spoke, offering me nutella filled pan cakes-in short, dora cakes. I ain't a fool to deny it.

"Thank you. Won't your brother be disappointed?" I asked while cutting it with knife and placing in my mouth.

"Tsk, I know how to turn the tables in argument. Just because I act carefree and stupid doesn't mean that I am a one." He winked, a smirk evident on his face.

I leaned back on my chair, my lips stretched in a knowing smirk.

"Twins for a reason, bro." He grinned making me pass an impressed nod.

"By the way, you going some where?" He raised his brow.

"Nope, not today." I shrugged. "I am not sure actually."

"Ok, inform if you are going somewhere. And don't forget to take guards with you like you did previously." He pointed at the day when I went to outskirts of city.

"I am very much capable of protecting myself, Aditya. Just because I received princess treatment all my life doesn't mean that I am a fragile princess. Everything is not like it seems." I rolled my eyes.

"Aadhya.....you know, we care for you-" I inturrepted him.

"Aditya, I have my personal guards here, as in udaipur, the city of lakes. That's the reason, I don't take these guards with me. Ok? Even I care about my whole self, my existence." I explained.

"Yes, in the end you are Aadhya Raizada. How can I forget that?" He muttered and stood up.

"Di.......can I take your one of the car today?" Abhir pleaded.

Nothing shocking! From the time, few, well, fourty cars were shipped here from london and jaipur, he and Vihaan brat are after them.

No worries, even if something happens I will purchase another one obviously after giving them long lecture. And after that I won't give them my cars to drive too.

"Which one?" I asked, standing from my seat.

"Your, any of the, black sports car." He smiled, mischief clear in it.

"Why sports car?" I frowned.

"Wanted to take a spin." He shrugged.

"I was going to take that particular car out on a spin though-nevermind. I told Raghu uncle to park my black car outside the garage, but you take it. I will take another one." I nodded still in daze.

Something doesn't feels right.

"Aww, thank you!" He grinned and went. Aditya shook his head at him with a scoff and turned on his shoes to head office as he came in lunch time.
