I entered the room and closed it carefully without making any noise.
Yes, I sneaked into her room, maybe I could get any clue.

I was in my room thinking about how to prove if she was innocent or not. Then, without thinking about anything, I came into her room after the meeting.

I saw her sleeping figure; she was sleeping, hugging a pillow, and the moonlight was falling on her face, making her face glow, but there were also dried tears on her face.

She cried, because of me. I am guilty but of course, my ego wouldn't let me apologize to her.

I don't know why it was hard for me to tear my gaze from her face. After forcing myself to look away from her, I went towards her cupboard, to see if there was any secret device hidden there or not.

There was nothing in there, just the normal staff essentials that I had given to them.

" A-kshayy Bh..." What? What was that?

I looked at her and saw that she said it in her sleep. Who the hell is this Akshay? Her boyfriend?

How could she have a boyfriend!?
Why can't she have a boyfriend?

Because she looks quite young for a boyfriend, this is not an age to have a boyfriend.
Whatever it is, why do you care?

My subconscious continued to question me. Why do I care? Then why is it boiling my blood at the single thought of it?
Ignoring my inner turmoil I stormed out of the room.

Next Morning..

A A R O H I

I woke up with the sunrise falling on my face, disturbing my sleep. Ever since I have come here, I have not slept properly for a day. My lectures are also missed.

Last night, I cried till I slept all because of that Raakshas. He has kept me here, just because he thinks that I am some fraud or what.

But not anymore, I'll try to run away from here. I just have to get a chance and then I'll just fly from here!

I was missing Akshay Bhaiya so much last night that I even saw him in my dreams. We were playing games. I miss him!

Shrugging my thoughts I went to freshen up. After that, I wore my uniform and went to the kitchen.
Kiran was there cleaning the kitchen.

We wished each other good morning and I started preparing breakfast.
Shiv and Om Bhaiya came excitedly and grabbed their chairs. Today their punishment is complete. I should make something good for them.

I start to prepare choole bhature for them. After some time, the food was ready, and I went to serve them.

But the Raakshas was still not here; they both were waiting for him. That's when we heard the sound of someone descending the stairs; everyone got alert and looked down.

I don't know what I was thinking, but I looked at the sound even after I knew who was there.

I looked at him, and surprisingly he was also looking at me. There was something different in his gaze, not like usual.

" Come bhai, have breakfast. We are hungry," Shiv Bhaiya said.

" You both have; I am not hungry." Saying this, he went from there.

" What's wrong with him? He never leaves without having breakfast" Shiv Bhaiya said, and Om Bhaiya shrugged as a response.

" Aarohi, can you pack Bhai's lunch?" Shiv Bhaiya asked, I went to after nodding.

I packed lunch for the three of them and handed it to Om Bhaiya. He took it and gave me a small smile. After that, they left for their work.

Meanwhile..

" Did you get anything?" I asked Jiya.

" No, you?" She asked me, I nodded my head negatively.

We have been looking for her in this area, but we have got nothing that could help us to find Rohi.

" The salesman at the medical store told me that she had come there, and even bought the medicine, but after that, nobody knows where she went," I said.

" Even CCTV cameras aren't here," She said.

I am getting very worried for her, God knows in what condition she must be right now!

I couldn't hold back my tears after that, and let them fall.

" Hey! Don't cry, we will find Ruhi.." Jiya said patting my shoulder.

Then she put her hands over my shoulders, hugging me. I didn't push her cause I needed it, so I hugged her back.

" Please, we have to be strong in this situation and find her; even if you cry, then what will I do?" She said, rubbing my back. I could feel her tears on my shirt.

I nodded and she pulled back from the hug. We both wiped our tears.
She looked up at me and chuckled.

" What?" I asked.

" Yo- your nose.." She said trying to control her laugh, making me more confused.

" My nose?" I asked touching my nose, don't tell me it's running.

" It's gone red," she said. Ohh

" Yeah, it gets red whenever I cry," I said, feeling embarrassed.

" It's looking cute," She said pulling my cheeks. What the..

" I think you are forgetting that I am your senior," I said in an angry tone. Her smile slowly faded.

" Sorry" She said looking down, and I started to laugh at her reaction.

" Let's go now" I said to her.
