Chapter- 6

It was friday, a week since we had been practicing together. We had our differences, don't get me wrong, we had the most conflicting personalities in the world and he as a matter of fact was the most insufferable boy I've ever met.  But we had a system, no personal business while practicing ever. I  had no business in his personal life, and as fucked up as mine was I appreciated that he never asked questions about mine either. 

" Rhea, I need you to come down here." I heard my aunt call out. I was out on the terrace, the terrace of this small duplex home was my sanctuary. It was an escape from the suffocation I felt in this house. I started down the stairs and saw my aunt impatiently tapping her foot waiting for me. " Ji Chachi?" I asked her politely.

" I have a party to go to at Anita aunties so I want to you to go pick up Arnav from his school and drop him off at his arts class today. " She practically demanded. " I'm sorry chachi, I can't I have practice at four today. I would be late if I did that and Arnav is used to you picking him up from school anyway." I reasoned. 

" I didn't ask you a question you ungrateful brat, living off your uncle's income. The least you can do is help us around the house." she shouted at me I stayed silent.

" I will. and Do not drag my father into this, you could never be half the amazing human that he was." I said as I stormed out of the room I was sure this wasn't the end of the argument. I'll here about it soon enough again, it was never ending, nothing I did was ever good enough to get a kind word out of her. Tears welling up in my eyes. I grabbed my tennis kit and my phone as I walked out of the house towards my cousins school. I wish my parents had been here for me.I sighed.

By the time I dropped my cousin off at his arts class it was already four thirty, and my luck, being the shitty thing that it was, my phone had already died. I rushed home so that I could at least inform Vedant that I'd be late. As I turned around the corner towards my house, I spotted a very familiar black thar outside my house. This is wrong, this is so wrong, I started panicking. It was Vedant's. He couldn't be here. He shouldn't be here. 

I started running towards the house. He was not in the car. fuck. I opened the gate and saw him standing at the front door. I felt like all the blood had left my body, If chachi was still at home, I'm dead meat. 

"Vedant! What the hell are you doing here?" I whisper shouted at him as I approached the front door.  I cou
