What Is Love

Chapter Twenty Seven

Varun ! Varuun !! He heard a loud banging on the door, the nightmare fading away, he struggled to wake, feeling pains in his body, he forced his eyes open.
I got up sitting on the bed, rubbing my temples, the knock on the door was recurrent, which means the knock wasn't a part of my dream,  I wiped my eyes, and slowly got out of bed, my body still weak from the nightmare, whoever it is, has just interrupted me, I honestly wanted to find out the girl, who she was, this has never happened before, I unlocked the door, to find an unexpressed Kareena in front of me, about to knock on the door again, I rolled my eyes leaning on the door frame,
'What do you want?"I said with the least energy to argue with her, "it's barely day break,"
"Well, I couldnt sleep so I went for a glass of water,"she said, I watched her, she doesn't want to be here, but concern is obvious in her eyes,
"So? What do I have with your inability to sleep? Go to your best friend, or Rahul and let me be,"I snapped at her, she ignored me, and stepped closer trying to look into my room,
"Hey hey hey, what do you think you're doing?"
"Well...umm...are you the only one in the room?"
"Why would you ask that?"
"Just answer me,"
"Of course I am, what? Looking for who to call a cheapskate again?"
"Noo, that wasn't where I was headed by the ways, well...I kinda..."she paused for a while, staring at me, looking at me up and down,
"What are you staring at? My face is up here,"I said sternly, she shot her face up to me,
"Is the room hot?"
"What?"
"Your room, is it hot?"
"No,"
"The a.c., is it working?"
"In this cold rain?"
"Cold rain huh?"she crossed her arm around her chest, "cold rain and you're sweating like you were close to a furnace," I realized it, my top was clinging to my body, my forehead had beads of sweat, she used that opportunity and pushed her way into my room, I went after her, she stood in front of the air conditioner,  but before she checked anything I grabbed her by her elbow, and turned her around,
"I told you every thing's fine here! So go away!" She removed her hand from mine,
"I'm here, not because I all of a sudden care about you, no, you're one person that hating you is written all over my destiny, I'm here because of the sake of humanity,  I'm here because I thought something was wrong, I'm here because......" her voice trailed off, she fell silent, staring at me, looking like she was contemplating something in her mind, "you know what, if you die, I'll be least affected by it, keep your pride to yourself, I'm finally going to get some sleep. She walked past me banging the door behind her, why was she here? What was she talking about? She asked so many weird questions, immediately she shut the door behind her...

I'm here because I thought something was wrong,  

Why would she think that something was wrong, for some reason, those words replayed in my head, accept the happiness that is right in front of you, I held my head together,  trying to control the boiling blood inside me, who was she? Why did she say those things to me? And why does she complicate my nightmares, they were normal memories I couldn't escape, but right now,they're all weird and very disturbing nightmares , I tend to care for her in my dreams, she....,arrgghhhhhhh!!!,

Kareena's POV
He's so strange, so very strange, nobody stranger than he is, and he's so annoying, full of himself, pride that I don't understand, arrogance in him! But some part of me feels there's more to this side, some other side that I'm not sure I want to know or I'm willing to learn, he's keeping me thoughtful, since the moment Pablo forcefully makes me give him that toy, his reaction to it was not what I expected,  going to my room i decided to voice call Supriya while changing,
"Sis, I'm so shocked about today,"
"Why?"
"The whole outburst,"
"Yeah,"
"You two seem like people who have had a serious problem in your first life,"I laughed at her while cleaning off my make-up,
"Anyway, who cares,"
"Well I do, he shouldn't have said those things no matter how wrong you were,"
"It didn't get to me,"
"Diii"
"Okay, maybe a little but honestly, I care less about him,"
"What was that about living under the same roof?"
"Well, remember Pablo? "
"Yep "
"He awarded them with the house Tanya and I share,"
"Ooooo....how often have you two fought?"
"Honestly, from the plane, in the car, at home, at the restaurant before the Indian one, oh yes, In Tanya's car as well"
"Di, ignore him,"
"Hmm, so that means she's not going to listen to his songs again,"
"Songs, movies, off my list," her reaction isn't really nice, I get she's worried about her sister, but to know how much his career means to him and I cannot be responsible for his downfall,
"Supriya, I cannot believe I'm saying this,"I took a deep breath..."don't stop, he's real good to his fans, maybe not to me,"
"Hes good to his fans,"
"Am I his fan? Stalking his biography isn't what I do, "
"Whatever,"she said, i could feel her roll her eyes , "listen Supriya, say hi to every one, I need to sleep now, classes start tomorrow and going late to Mr. Starks class isn't what anyone would want to do on a new semester, 
"Goodnight sis, "
"Night"
"Fight less,"
"I will if he does," she hung up, I sighed, strolling to my bed and falling flat on it, tossing and turning, I still couldn't shut my eyes, or sleep peacefully, I was tossing all over the bed, checking my bedside,  the glass jug was empty, and I needed water, as I was approaching the hallway from the stairs, I heard muffled groans....is he..I stopped the thoughts from creeping into my mind, to be able to live a peaceful life with this dumbo around i need to put up my best attitude, I slowly followed the noise, and my heart raced as I approached his door, I heard sniffles, and small talks but I could not make out what it was, a part of me wanted to leave but the other part, wants to know more, like I said, he might be a star, all famous and all but there's a side to him, I'm sure no one knows, everyone has that side to them, I slowly knocked on the door, but the more I knocked, the louder the groans, a lot was running through my mind, what could be happening, I knocked on it the more even calling out his name, trying hard not to wake the others,it stopped, and for a second my mind stopped thinking for a while, hearing light footsteps approaching the door and within a second it flew open while I was about to knock on it again, with him in front of me, unlike any normal person, they'd have sleepy eyes, but his eyes were red, his eyes held eye bags, and looking at the time before coming here it was early the next day, he rolled his eyes and leaned on the door frame, 
"What do you want?" Right, he still has that annoying attitude, "its barely daybreak," he added, but there's some thing off about him right now,nothing seems normal at all, and I'm trying my best to seem unexpressed but the concern in which mother and grandmother had put in me, even for my enemies didn't let me have my way,
"Well, I couldn't sleep so I went for a glass of water," I began, not like I wanted to tell him my whole journey down here, but explaining the sounds I heard were hard to form,"
"So? What do I have with your inability to sleep? Go to your best friend, or Rahul and let me be," he said, I'm less surprised at him now, nothing he says will be getting to me from now henceforth. I tried to look closer into his room to find anything suspicious
"Hey hey hey, what do you think you're doing?" He asked obstructing my viewing in his room,
Well...umm...are you the only one in the room?" I asked, knowing how stupid the question was,
"Why would you ask that?"
"Just answer me,"
"Of course I am, what? Looking for who to call a cheapskate again?" There he goes,
"Noo, that wasn't where I was headed by the ways, well...I kinda..." I looked at him for a second, he was sweating, how's that possible, the rain that fell was a cold one, and in this house all the air cons work perfectly, and it doesn't take a day to have them fixed,
"What are you staring at? My face is up here," he said bitterly, but I didnt mind at all.
"Is the room hot?" I asked him,
"What?"
"Your room, is it hot?"
"No,"
"The a.c., is it working?"
"In this cold rain?"
"Cold rain huh?" If it is cold, how then would he be sweating so much like he ran a marathon, "cold rain and you're sweating like you were close to a furnace," he began to assess himself, and while doing that I quickly pushed my way into his room, and stood in front of the air con, about to check it by turning on the switch, he grabbed my elbow and turned me around, glaring at me, why is he always like this..
"I told you every thing's fine here! So go away!" He thinks so highly of himself, but he needs to understand that I don't want to but I'm just trying to help because if anything goes wrong in this house, as a star people will take his word for it, I removed my arm from his, and returned the same glare to him,
"I'm here, not because I all of a sudden care about you, no, you're one person that hating you is written all over my destiny, I'm here because of the sake of humanity,  I'm here because I thought something was wrong, I'm here because......" my voice trailed off, his problem doesn't matter to me, if he dies, he dies and I won't bother, seeing that a little effort to make his life comfortable has gone in vain, I won't bother anymore, "you know what, if you die, I'll be least affected by it, keep your pride to yourself, I'm finally going to get some sleep. " i stormed out banging the door behind me, making sure he felt the impact, all the way to my room, not caring about the water I fell to my bed, classes tomorrow by 8, it's the only thing I should think about and worry about, not some over bearing star, and his tantrums. I shut my eyes trying to sleep, but his name, his face, everythjng concerning him was all I could think about.
