Love or Revenge

Chapter 5

Finally, Aditya let Zoya's hand go and halted near a slim, long-legged girl. She was wearing a one-piece black dress which was revealing her cleavage and her long legs. "Sorry Bum... I got late..." he said and hugged her. She hugged him back and said, "Finally Bum... you're here... I have managed the managers of the pub. But they're insisting to wait for the police to arrive. He just now went to call the police", scratching her head with frustration.

"Oh! No! We can't risk that. You wait here with him. I'll go and try to talk with the manager", he said and hurried towards the direction where Pooja showed. Zoya was blinking as if what the hell she was doing here?

Aditya came back in few seconds and said to Pooja, "Bum... Sorry she is Zoya... She came here to help us. You both wait here, let me try to convince the manager", then hurried back to the same place.

Zoya could say that Pooja didn't like her presence there that too with Aditya. So, she turned and looked at Aman who is lying on the couch motionless. She immediately checked his pulse on his neck and on his wrist. She understood that he needs immediate medical help to detox the overdosed drug.

She turned to Pooja and opened her mouth to say the situation, "Hey..." Pooja cuts her off by snapping. "Don't you even dare to speak to me? You cheap".  Zoya got it that it's useless even to try to make her understand the situation. She know only Aditya will understand the situation. 

She headed in the same direction where Aditya went and she found him talking to someone. "No Sir, he was not into drugs. He got unconscious because excess consumption of alcohol. I'll give you my word on that. You'll never face any kind of problem. I'll take full responsibility and you don't need to call police for such small troubles".

"You can say this to the police, Mr." Manager said in harsh tone. Zoya understood it'll do no good to Aman as he needs immediate medical attention. She interfered and said, "Sir, please sir, don't call police otherwise my life will be spoiled forever". "What?" Aditya and Manager said in unison.

Zoya put her hand together and begged the manager while winked at Aditya. "Yes sir, he is my fiancé. We came here to celebrate our engagement and he got drank because of over excitement and excess consumption of alcohol", she paused. She sniffed her nose and some tears roll down her cheeks.

She continued, "If you call police now then my parents will come to know about his alcohol habit and also they will cancel our engagement and separate us. I can't live without him sir. My life is in your hands sir... Please sir... Please sir... Don't spoil my life... He is my love..." she broke into tears. Aditya couldn't control his laughter seeing her acting skills.

The manager looked at her and said, "But..." she cuts him off and said, "Sir, think me as your daughter and please don't call the police". "If you're my daughter then I wouldn't let you to marry someone like him", he said. Zoya looked at him perplexed but gathered herself and said, "I agree but this is just one time. He said he want to celebrate our engagement. He was not always like this. I'm so sorry for what he did... Please sir... Please let us go... I'll take him through the back door... Please sir... You don't have to be blamed for the separation two lovers", she said and falsely cried harder.

"Okay! Okay! Please stop crying. Take him from here immediately and I shouldn't see him here ever again", he said with frustration. "Oh! Thank you Sir! God be with you" Zoya said and hurried Aditya out from there.

"What was that?" Aditya asked in exclamation. "Oh! Forget that! Aman needs immediate medical attention. He is losing his pulse, we have to hurry him to the nearest hospital", she literally pulled him along with her.

"What? Shit!" Aditya said and hurried to the place where was Aman lying. He checked his pulse and it's gone even weaker. "Zoya, if you don't mind, can you bring the car to the back door? I'll bring Aman there", he asked. She nodded and he handed the valet card to her. Pooja opened her mouth to say something. "Not now Pooja" he cuts her off.
