Hey Readers , How are you people?
Chapter 43
"You said you were hungry!" Sultan points out seeing her playing with the food .
"My appetite is gone!" Madhu says sadly
"Why is that baby?" Sultan asks innocently while stuffing the lasagna into his mouth .
"Don't baby me ! – It's because my heart is empty !" She slaps on his arm making him chuckle .
"Dipali and Rishab are together –they went out together!" Madhu tells begrudgingly to see Sultan munching the piece of lasagna now with a force .
"So what –I don't give a damn !"
"Fists are clenching and teeth's are gritting without any damn?" Madhu asks innocently while blinking her eyelashes at him .
Sultan gets defensive "I –DON'T – CARE!" He emphasizes
"Just be honest with your feelings Sultan!" Madhu advises as she continues "Bottling everything in will make you sick!'
Sultan looks away while having his meal in silence . After few minutes He turns his head to see Madhu chewing onto a small piece slowly as if not to hurt the lasagna .
"Don't You feel upset when you are being left out all the time?"
"No!" Madhu says quickly but looks down at her plate feeling sad
"Sultan come lets have lunch-"I am starving - "Sultan mimics her words as she shots him a glare "Then what was that?—Don't bottle up everything inside darling –you will get sick" Sultan throws back her words while getting onto her nerves .
Madhu with her index finger asks him to move forward as she leans in – Once he is at her hand reach she whacks the back of his head making him let out a grumble .
"I hate you for this!" Sultan mumbles while rubbing his head
Rishab and Dipali walk in at the exact time . Dipali ignores Sultan and passes a warm smile at Madhu who reciprocates . Rishab looks Madhu and raises his brow asking her What's wrong – Madhu looks down what is she too answer? – She was upset because he went out with his girlfriend? or to be girlfriend ?
"Madhu—Rishab helped me retrieve my things from the boutique!" Dipali squeals in happiness while she says .
Sultan excuses himself and walks out of the hall to his room. Madhu smiles at Dipali "I know he doesn't let down his loved ones!" – Madhu's voice cracks but still having a smile intact she carries the plates to put do the dishes .

Sultan pulls out his phone and gazes at the smiley face she had drawn back in Shimla . He swipes unlocking his phone and clicks on the gallery and sighs seeing her pictures . She looked more young and beautiful with her smile blooming but since He came back from America he hadn't seen her happy .
Rishab enters Sultan's room without tapping the door . He throws the key on the bed gaining Sultan's attention who switches off his phone instantly so that Rishab doesn't see the photos .
"I've done what you asked me for!"
"Hmm—Thanks!" Sultan says awkwardly
"This would be the last time I would look out for Dips on your behalf!" Rishab states sternly
