[ADITI]

I guess I dosed off while waiting for both of them. I was feeling weak because I didn't have anything in dinner. As I walked off the bed, I forced myself into the washroom. I went into the kitchen once done and started making breakfast for them. "What are you doing?", a voice evoked my ears which literally forced me to jump like a scared cat. "Oh..Darshan... you scared me...", I said. "You didn't reply my question", he repeated stressing his words. "What do you see?", I asked. "I guess.. it is a kitchen", he said while I shot a death glance at him. "Oh sorry... it is my kitchen...", he again said and chuckled. My face evoked into a smile too and just then I got a phone call from "Rajesh". I could feel my expressions change. I looked at him who had his brows up and his eyes asked 'what is the matter'. "Darshan... I have an important call... I need to attend it... Excuse me..", I said and ran into my room. I locked the door and checked it twice if it was perfectly locked or not. Then I picked up the call. "Oye... koi itna waqt leta h kya phone call uthane ke liye? Aur tu kahan h? Mai kabse door bell baza raha hoon... darwaza kyun nhi khol rahi h?", Rajesh said in a long stretch while I took a shaky breath in which were neought to justify everything I needed to say. "Hey... r u alright?", he asked concerned. "Yeah... I am fine... I have shifted to Darshan's place", I said unbothered about what was going to happen next because I knew what would happen. "WHAT? R u serious? u r with him? Tu paagal h kya? Tujhe tootne ka itna shauk kyun h? Why do u want to break yourself again and again? Why?", he bursted. "You know what... just come back r8 now!", he ordered. "It is not possible...", I muttered. "What? why?", he cued up. "U think I willed to stay with them? They forced me to... and now they have confined me like I am in a jail... ", I replied shaking my head negatively. "THEY?", he asked the obvious question. "Darshan and Prakriti", I said after taking an audible shaft of air in. And what followed us was mere silence... we were surrounded by only silence... but our silence spoke everything. "Give me the address", he said after a long silence. "Dude... R u mad?", I exclaimed. "Why?? Can't I visit you?", he asked. "I didn't mean that... okay take the address", I said and gave the address. After hanging up the call... I went out. darshan was in the living room. "Don't you think we are getting late?", he asked. "You go... I will come afterwards", I replied coldly. "Miss Aditi is saying to stay back??? I am dreaming... pinch me", he dramatically said and there was a ring of the bell and it forced shivers down my spine. Obviously... it was Rajesh. I just feared he would smack Darshan's face or say a brutal truth but to my dismay he was quiet... all quiet. "Hey darshan... meeting after a long time..", he calmly said but only I culd hear the storm behind the calmness. "Hey....", Darshan obviously couldn't recognize him. As rajesh saw me, he moved towards me and hugged me. "Hey Adu... I missed u terribly", he said and I noticed a change in Darshan's expression. "Hi rajesh.... ", I said breaking the hug. "Aaj soch raha hoon... office na jaoon", Darshan placed himself on the sofa and said. "But u were getting late,r8?", I asked. "Yaar... I was joking", he said and after a good hour... Rajesh left us.

"U loved someone?", Darshan asked when I locked the door and shivers ran down my spine and my soul got scared. What could I answer this obvious question which had millions of emotions and one answer?
