Against All Odds...

Chapter 8

*Ansh Pov*

"It is very far. So, I think this is best." I heard Anu's voice when I walked near to the bedroom door and slowly opened it.

"Did you tell your brother?" Kirthi asked making me frown, thinking what are they talking about.

"I will! He has to wake up first, right? Do you give sleeping pills everyday? I never saw my brother waking so late before. He was supposed to be finishing his gym work right now." Anu continued to talk laughing.

"I will start my gym now by making the coffee and lifting the cups." I said making my presence known and they both turned to look at me.

"And yes, she kind of gives sleeping pills." I added, staring at Kirthi while for the first time she gave that little blush to which I walked near to her and kissed her for the first time in the audience of my sister.

"Okay! By the way I am leaving her house." Those words from Anu brought me out of this mood and turn to stare at her.

"What? You are coming to live with me?" I asked, but she shook her head.

"You are returning to our parent's house?" I asked even though I already have this feeling she will not unless maybe they called her.

"Will they allow me in the first place?" she asked, smiling, but the sad expression is still there.

"Then where are you going and the main question is why?" I asked frowning.

"I am going to the penthouse. And the reasons could be the distance I am travelling this whole week along with the time at which I am travelling which is not safe and many other reasons." She replied sighing.

"And I already decided, Bhai." She added while I kept on staring at her before turning to see Kirthi looking at me.

"Aren't you going to stop her?" I asked, to which she shook her head.

"She recovered completely and it is her wish whether to stay here or not." She replied and that felt like a last thread.

"Do whatever you want to do." Saying that I walked off, leaving the house and reached my car ignoring Anu's voice.

"Is something wrong, Sir?" those words brought me out of my thoughts making me turn and stare at my secretary.

"What is it?" I asked her frowning.

"You got a phone call." She replied and I lifted it to hear Anu's voice.

"I just shifted to the penthouse, Bhai. I am sure if I want anything, all I need to do is ask you." She said and I sighed leaning back.

"Always!" I mumbled and wished her good luck before we both hung up.

"Only this call?" I asked and she nodded while I glanced at the laptop.

"But this was dropped by someone." She replied and I glanced up to see her holding some box.

I took it and opened it after she left to see the breakfast they were having in the morning. I smiled and immediately started eating along with calling her.

"Why did you send this?" I asked the moment she lifted the call.

"If you don't want, give it to someone else." She replied back.

"Why didn't you come along with this into my cabin?" I continued, leaning back in the back and met the silence.

"I was already late helping your sister to pack and couldn't stay back with my boss already calling me two times." She calmly replied while I frowned remembering who is her boss.
