Miss Introvert? [COMPLETED ✔]

CHAPTER 50

[Aditi]
I was lost in my work... Too much that I didn't notice the clock ticking 5PM. Now what to do? I didn't even have my lunch. So I just decided to make myself some sandwiches. While I chopped down the vegetables, his words echoed in my ears "Friends like college days... ". It did nothing better than killing my heart more... I just wanted to break down at the very moment. I wasn't that strong as I showed. This is why I hate to drag myself to anything else other than my work. Once I indulge myself in something, I don't think about the rest. I did exactly what I needed to. I broke down. Yes... It was weird to cry when u r at the mid of your kitchen and suddenly u start crying... But this cry was not for him but for my loneliness... For my weakness... For my breaths. I just wished to die. I had turned no less than a machine. Suddenly the door bell rang. My head jerked up and I wiped my tears as soon as possible. I even splashed water on my face so that the tears merge with the water. I opened the door. "Adu... were u crying? ", Rajesh asked with concern. "No... Actually I didn't have enough sleep last night.. ", I lied... As it had turned to be my habit. "See... U can't lie to ur brother, r8? What happened? Say to me.. ", he asked. "Oye.. At first come in... ", I slightly tugged him inside. "So... How is Swikruti's health? ", I asked him not letting him to speak. "Good... Actually better... ", he replied. "And the baby? ", I again inquired. "Everything is just so perfect... But why r u crying? ", he asked again dragging me back to square one. "Ahh... It's nothing... Will u have coffee? ", I asked as I rushed in to the kitchen... He came after me and looked at the bread then the chopped vegetables. "U had sandwiches for lunch? ", he asked and I feared to answer him. "Actually... I was making them to have them now... I didn't have lunch... ", I said mustering up enough courage. He remained quiet... Unexpectedly! "Now speak up... What is it? ", he asked caressing me... And this time I couldn't control myself. I couldn't control my tears... I couldn't control my feelings. "He is back... ", sobbing hard I spoke. "Who? ", he again questioned. "D.. D... Darshan", I replied shakily. "What the heck? How... When and why? ", he sounded tensed and worried. "Don't worry... M okay with his presence and... And.... And.. ", I left the sentence hanging as I couldn't complete it. "And? ", he furrowed his brows. "And.. M his PA now... ", I lowered my head and he was quiet... He was QUIET. But his silence spoke himself. "Why r u breaking yourself now... Again? ", he asked caressing my hair slowly. "It doesn't pain now... I have e just got over him... ", I lied. "I just now said u can't lie to me... ", he stressed upon his words. "I have seen u breaking apart all these days... Now not more... Do whatever u want but please don't break... When there was no-one with us, we were there for each other... Remember it", he said again. I nodded. "No one can ever understand me as much as u do... ", I said. "And.. No one can be as careless as you.. ", he said as he turned off the gas. "U r still that careless moti... ", he huffed. "Hww... M not Moti ...u Mota ... ", I huffed back. "Why... I know m gaining weight... But m working on that.. And look at u... Kuch na khake bhi bhais jaisi h.. ", he JOKED. "Haan hoon... Toh Kya? Tujhe mujhse shaadi Thode hi karni h? ", I replied back. He was much more than my very own Brother. In the world of hatred where I didn't know what love is... He showed me the ray of love and Darshan... He showed me the lain of love... I got both in an expected and unexpected way... Both!
