So the days were passing like this. When one day, at lunchtime. I reached Pandey Nivas when "Dhruv have this..." Vasu Aunty's voice grabbed my attention towards dining table. Everyone were gathered around it, except Bihaan. I reached to kitchen to have lunch for him, there I found Preeti Bhabhi.
"What's happening?" I asked amazed. "Sunday lunch is an important part of this family. All the members gets together for lunch" she sounded happy. Yes this was my first experience of Sunday lunch at his house, and I wasn't surprised even to not find him with everyone else. So I took his plate to his room.
He was standing holding the railing glancing at dining table, his happy, without him, family. He was sad.... Yet didn't saw me. "Bihaan" He turned to me "Oh Thapki" He sighed pretending to be happy. "Have lunch" as always I took him inside with the lunch.
He kept the plate away and lied his head on my lap, without uttering anything. "What happened?" I asked brushing his tiny hair. He was more like a kid than a man... And I'm in love with this kid. He was still silently glaring the fan. Every Sunday lunch might was a bit painful part of his routine. "Bihaan" I caressed his cheeks. "Come" I ordered holding his hand to move downstairs. "Thapki stop" He said worriedly behind me but I didn't stopped until we reached to the shockingly gathered Pandey family at dining table.
"Thapki what is this?" Di, standing with Dhruv, asked. Yes she was also present there, because of Dhruv. Even Aunty was happy with Dhruv's choice. "Thapki... Stop" a groan stopped my legs. "I'm tolerating you just because of your sister and my son Dhruv" Vasu Aunty hissed gnashing at me. "It doesn't mean you'll ruin my family's happiness" she added fuming at me. "I'm sorry Maa... She's mistaken" Bihaan said pulling me back. "No I'm not" I groaned.
Everyone stood at their places. "Aunty please let him join with you all... I'm scared how will you react when you'll find his truth". I said. "You don't need to show pity on me" Bihaan fumed pulling me back again. Aunty smirked. "You can't understand what had he done by separating Dhruv's Bauji from his own house" she fumed. "Today he's not with us... Just because of this sin" Aunty fumed placing a slight push on Bihaan's chest, who was just glaring at his Maa's words, brokenly. "He was the only one who always convinced us to involve this sin in this family and this Sunday lunch" she fumed Dhruv held her. I forgot that no one knows about Bauji. And he will never allow me to do so. I looked at him and soon was filled with sudden chills thinking what if he again tries to harm himself!!! "Bihaan... She doesn't knows anything..." I uttered but he slipped his hands away from mine. He was just silently glaring at his Maa his steps moved back and he climbed to his room. My chills were high now. "Make sure he doesn't breaks your trust, at least" she scoffed glaring his room. "He's a betrayer Thapki... I'm warning you" she said shaking me. "He will never" I declared proudly.
He didn't got seat on the table but thankfully I made him agree to have lunch at least.

The same evening. I was shocked seeing Bihaan holding filled syringe and was about to inject in himself. "Bihhhhaaannn" I yelled when he looked at me, scared. I was shattered. Unable to stand even. He came to hold me. "Don't touch me" I groaned pushing him harder. Anger raised in me. "Thapki listen me first" He tried to calm me. But I was shattered. "How can you cheat me Bihaan" finally some tears split out wetting my cheeks. "Thapki listen to me once". "Shut up.... Just shut up"."You don't know what you have done today" I groaned louder. "Thapki please". "Don't touch me I said".
"Thapki" He groaned finally snatching my arms, tighter. I gazed his burning eyes and he mine, teary ones. "Yes I was taking drugs... I can't live without them." He fumed huffing in anger. "And what about me?" I uttered glaring in his eyes. Silence. "I hate you..." He yelled "You just irritate me always." He threw me. "Wow" I clapped after managing to stand. "Sin, betrayer, cheater...." I groaned when he cut me in between groaning louder "Yes I am.... I am". "Let me be on my own... Leave me for God's sake" He gnashed his teeth. "You can't do this Bihaan... I can read your eyes" I grabbed his collar, doesn't wanted to believe in what I saw.. But this was truth. "Why are you destroying your life" I fumed. "Shut up" He twisted my hand. But the pain wasn't more than what I got from him. "I hate you" He hissed. His hisses pierced in my heart.

I was hurt. Hurt, of course anyone would!! I'm trying with my whole soul to make him normal but he!! Can't he be honest to himself at least!!!! I sat on the same bench in Park where we had shared many precious moments. His best friend, the moon, was shining proudly. I switched off my phone... I was hurt... Very much.

Suddenly I felt someone's hard grab on my mouth from behind me. It was some white cloth on my face.... Making me dizzy. Everything was blurry now in front of me.... And then.... Dark.
