Her Not So Fairytale

9. Care

"If you don't heal what hurt you, you will bleed on people who didn't cut you. "

The next day I could easily notice how my little gang at work was trying to give me silent treatment.

Snehadi gave me a small smile when we came face to face in the morning.

Rose was full on silent mode as she avoided every opportunity to deal with me.

Even though I wanted to shake her and ask her about last night's drive with Rithvik, I was waiting to see how long they were going to keep this up.

The day went slowly maybe because I had no one to gossip with.

I shared few quick words with everyone around but the people with whom I could easily chatter away didn't give me the time of the day.

It was in the afternoon that I decided to take things in my hand and solve the issue.

Both of them were in the store room arranging some documents when I made my way over.

"But how could she skip such an important information? She should have told earlier."

I could hear Snehadi's voice from outside. Clearly, they were talking about me.

OK! I know it's bad to eavesdrop but when they are talking about you. You can't help it!

"Even I can't believe it. No wonder she always dodge the questions regarding family. I hope she won't hide anything from now on. " Rose added.

"How long are we going to continue this silent treatment? "

"I don't know. Let's see what she will do. I don't think she will be able to go on without us for much time. "

"You mean we can't go without her any longer. " Snehadi corrected.

"That too. However let's not tell her that, when we forgive her. "

"Aren't you making this a little dramatic? " Snehadi asked the same question in my mind.

"It's needed! "

"OK Drama queen! "

"However do you think Advik knew? " Rose asked.

"No I don't think so. He seemed pretty upset too. "

"Hmm. " Rose hummed.

I could clearly imagine her thoughtful face from the other side of the door.

"Don't you think they look good together? "

"Rose.. They know what to do with their life. Don't meddle in between."

Her voice was not strong enough to reprimand.
Making me think even she felt the same.

"I don't.  Even Rithvik said something similar last night. "

"Is it so? Rithvik.. "

"Don't divert the topic Di.. He said that they both care for each other. "

"Rose, all of us care for each other here. And I believe Sria would have done the same thing for anyone in Advik's position. "

I was glad to hear how well Snehadi understood me until she continued,

"It won't be bad if both of them do end up together. "

"Wohi toh! "

"But we shouldn't do anything. Let them work it out on their own."

OK! I can't take this anymore.
