Miss Introvert? [COMPLETED ✔]

CHAPTER 49

[ADITI]

It was a Sunday, which meant no work in office. I sat on my table with piles of files and papers and lots of work to be accomplished. I sat with my laptop to print pages out and files to be accomplished. My work went on for nearly 2 hours when I felt a sudden pain in my neck. I cracked my neck a bit and then for the thousandth time cracked my knuckles even if they didn't make any sound. I checked my phone for the first time in the last two hours. I went into my kitchen to find something to eat. Nothing! Literally there was nothing to eat! I made myself a cup of coffee and went into the nearby supermarket. I was going through the label of each product before putting it into my bucket. Suddenly, I bumped into a well-built manly chest. "I am sorry", I muttered even if it was not my fault. Yes... I had changed to such an extent. "Oh hello madam! U don't need to be sorry for other's fault", I heard the same heavy yet cheerful voice. I looked up and found him. "So shopping today?", he furrowed his brows as he walked along with me on the endlessly long corridor. "Hmm... Yes...", I briefly answered. "Oh D... U r here... I was searching for you", I heard Prakriti's voice from behind darshan. "Hmm.. Yes... Look who is here!", he said as if I was a celebrity as I studied a packet of oats.i smiled hearing his childish talks. "Aditi... U r too here! ", she said as if it was almost impossible for me to be here. "Why can't I be here?", I asked trying to trouble them. "I didn't mean that...", she left her sentence hanging. "Then??", I furrowed my brows and she went on to become tensed and worried. Just then I broke into a smile. "Relax... I was joking", I said which made her sigh in relief. "Oh god!! Aditi can also joke??? I never knew it...", darsh.. I mean Darshan began his melodrama. "Why can't I joke?" I asked to trouble him. "Hey... Don't use that card on me.... U just played the card on Prak", he said as he broke into a smile. "Chuck all that... Let's go to a café nearby... We can talk a lot there", prakriti suggested and I couldn't oppose. After paying of the bills, we were in the chilled interior of the café. "So where are you living lately?", Prakriti asked out of the blues. "Round the corner", I replied. "So can we visit your house today?" , she asked suddenly and hearing that I almost choked out the coffee but I managed to gulp it down. "NO!", I shouted forcing ten heads to turn around us creating an awkward situation. Plastering on a smile and muttering a 'sorry', I softly said them "No... not today but some other day...". "What is the purpose to say it softly when u already exhaled it loudly and we r not asking u... u have to show us your house!", Darshan said as if it was oblivious. "But..." , I was cut off by him "What but?? We r old friends, Aren't we?", he started his emotional black mail. "Okay...okay...stop your emotional melodrama and come ", I uttered and their frowned faces broke into a smile.

We left the café and started walking on the bare road. "U came by walking?", he asked. "Y shall I use my bike to cover this short distance?", I asked replying his question. In moments we were standing in front of an apartment, not that rich looking but decent looking. I took them to my flat where the watch man was busy giving me looks... As soon as I opened the door, I regretted bringing them over. There were piles of papers and files lying all over as I had left them, my laptop charging on one single sofa and everything messed up. I passed an awkward smile to them and sided the papers and files, indicating to sit. "So this is what I expected from 'Our Aditi'", Darshan joked and I kept my things in the kitchen. I approached them and sat with them. "Oye... these projects have one month time... why r u completing them now?", Darshan asked in a surprised tone. "Well... I was getting bored ... so", I replied. "Yaar... We have come here for the first time... at least show us the house", Prakriti suggested. "Yeah... Sure", I said as I took them to a small route of my flat. "And this is my bed room...", I revealed and they both took a small walk around it. Suddenly, Darshan found a photo frame from on the side table beside my bed. It was a picture of the three of us... that we took when we were last happy... "U have this till now?", darshan asked and Prakriti stopped her mini tour and took a look at it. "Hey... it is that picnic photo which we took, r8?", she squeaked.... for them it was a photo but for me it was my power booster...it was my motivation... it was my cure. "I couldn't throw it,r8?", I asked sarcastically. "We used to be so happy...", Darshan mentioned. "We can be still happy together...", Prakriti said. Foolish girl... she doesn't know that we can never be together ever... happy is far away.

After their small tour, they went away from my house and I felt relieved. I leaned back to the door flashing back to the memories. They had thousands of questions but they can never get those aswers coz everything related to me is.... FORBIDDEN!
