Out Of Sight, Always In Mind!

Chapter 20 : Part 1

This chapter is divided into two parts merely for your excitement and fun :)

Vivan's POV:

"Did you hear from her?", Aarav asked me the moment he entered my office.

"No.. Not a word.. She spends most of her time at the hospital..", I said. Keya hasn't spoken a word to me or Aarav since that day, four days to be precise.

"What about Sahil?", he asked as he took the chair infront of me.

"No idea. Even if she has, he hasn't told me about it ..yet!", I replied

"Then we know exactly who to catch hold of.. ", Aarav said and dialled a number on his phone, probably Sahil.

..

"Stop staring at me like that! I am telling you guys nothing!", Sahil said for the enth number of time.

We were in my personal lounge. I was trying to basket from different angles. I remember the game I had played with Keya. She was good at basketball and not to forget, notorious. I have to find a way to apologise to her properly. She is not the one I do not care about losing.

I understood why I was so restless. But Aarav? What happened on the way back that he too is so keen on getting to Keya.

"Look Sahil, you don't understand. I have to talk to her.. ", Aarav said with anger.

"Where have I held your hands? Go and Talk!", Sahil snapped at him.

I threw the ball aside and joined them, "Sahil we need to know what is going on in her mind.. I don't know about Aarav but I do care for her. I want to make it up to her.. "

He was thinking deeply over what I said.

"I care for her too!", Aarav was telling me, "Things have changed after that night.. I have realised where I went wrong.. I can never forgive myself for that. It is because of me that she is upset, and it's me who must make it up to her.. If I could, I would have made things as they were, few years ago.. Afterall, I love..d her."

I wasn't liking where this conversation was going.

"Don't worry though, it was in the past. She is your girl now, go for her. I have seen it in your eyes Vivan, how deeply you feel for her. You also are a better match for her than me. But I can't lose her altogether. I need to mend the fences which I can. Please..", Aarav spoke genuinely.

Sahil got up and kept a hand on his shoulder, "You definitely can bro! All you have to do is go talk to her right? And as long as Keya is concerned, yes, she is upset. With both of you. But she would definitely give you guys a chance to explain. She was hurt and Krish's absence has made her healing process slow."

"So all we have to do is go talk to her?", I inquired.

"Yes. Exactly that.. ", Sahil replied.

Aarav's phone went off. "It's Tanya", he said and answered the phone.

"Hey.. ", he began to talk, "Yeah? (Pause) No.. (Pause) Are you sure?"

He had a worried expression on his face now.

"Don't you worry.. We will be there in minutes! Check where you can..", he said and hung up.

"Keya is MIA", Aarav informed us. What had happened now??

..

Tanya was arguing on the phone when we reached the amphitheatre. She hung up when she saw us approaching.

"Calm and steady.. And then tell us what happened...", Sahil told her.

She took a deep breath and began, "She came here directly after work... We were talking and stuff when Krish called. We were skyping with him and.. "
