Heal my Heart

21. Meeting him..again!

Hello everyone!!

I told you all I will be back in April month so here I am. But..but my exams which were supposed to end yesterday hasn't yet. I think you all heard about CBSE 12th grade paper being leaked and they are conducting that exam again on 25th apr. Can you believe I have to write that paper all over again just because of some bloody people. It's not fair. But again life isn't always fair. Right?!

Okay I will shut up now. I know you are desperately waiting for the update. So go on read..😘

I carefully stepped down the stairs scared if I put too pressure on my feet, I would lost my balance and fell down the staircase. It was more difficult because its a spiral one so more movement, more risk. When I finally reached the last step, sighed in relief. Slowly I walked towards the sitting area. I thought I would hear people talking but there was no voice, it was silence. Did they leave already? Oh maybe because I took too long to come down. Good. Isn't ?

I was looking down, watching my steps so that I don't trip and fall. That would only double the pain. I feel so proud of myself that I made this far even after facing everything last night and all my life. A small smile made its way to my face.

But it all disappeared the moment I shifted my gaze in the front, I froze. All pain forgotten. There was sitting Riya aunty with her family. What she is doing here? With her family? How did she even know I live here? If she tells everybody that we met, of course we have met or why she will be here in first place. And Alya told specifically that the people downstairs want to meet me. But now I have to go through my so called parent's questionnaire. And there's no doubt that they won't tell Yuvi. Might he would be first one to know about this when these people leave. So many what's ifs were running through my mind. What should I do? But at the same time I cannot be selfish and think only about myself. I have to make this fast so that they could leave before the hell broke loose.

There was Riya aunty sitting and to her right Nyonika aunty was sitting then there was three male on another couch but I couldn't see their faces, their back was only the thing I could see. Then there was a girl, maybe of Alya's age.

"Wow you are so so beautiful" the girl said. Her mouth a little parted. I smiled shyly looking down.

"Aye Muku close your mouth" one of the male said. She immediately closed her mouth and waved at me. She was behaving like she knows me already, we didn't right?! I don't recall. Whatever. I smiled at her.

I walked further and what I made me froze on my place. There was the same guy from yesterday who saved me from committing suicide. He was equally shocked to see me. Shit. He is their son. What if he tells everyone about yesderday? What if he had already told everyone in his family? But..he doesn't know me right?! But he had..

I glanced at him and saw him immediately stand in his place. His eyes widened still staring at me. Looks like he recognised me. "You..?" He asked. Surprise and shock clear in his voice. Before I could say anything, some one interrupted. "You both have already met?" Nyonika auntie asked me smiling slightly. I eyed that guy and pleaded with my eyes not to say anything. A frown made its way onto his face but then he sat down.

"No..mom just a little shocked nothing else..we haven't met before" he said directly looking at me. I took a sigh of relief and gave him a small smile but the frown on his face was still there. And he was still staring at me. I ignored and shifted my gaze at everyone else.

That couldn't have happened. If my family came to know about that incident, it will do nothing but make the situation even worse. And his family couldn't know about me, no one knows what goes on inside these four walls. No. One. And it would become a big problem for me and for them if Yuvi gets to know about this.
