The Heart Thief♥

♥ CHAPTER 27 ♥

Some people think that the truth can be hidden with a little cover-up and decoration. But as time goes by, what is true is revealed, and what is fake fades away.

Mahir asked shockingly, ' Whattt? I love Ruhi? Are you even in your senses? '

Abhay, who was still angry, said, ' I am in my senses. But I guess you have lost it. '

Vikrant understood that something was fishy.
He said, ' Abhay, please, at least for once listen to Mahir. '

Abhay said, ' Okay, fine. I'm listening. '

Mahir said, ' Abhay, I don't love Ruhi. In my whole life, I've loved only one girl and that is Bela. '

Abhay replied, ' Mahir, Do you really think I'll trust you after what you've done? '

Mahir replied, ' Fine. Don't trust me. Ask Ruhi instead. I swear we are nothing more than friends. Come, let's go to her house. If not for me, then at least for Bela?'

Abhay nodded.
Mahir and Abhay went to Ruhi's house.

In this one year, Mahir had visited her house 2-3 times as a friend so her family knew him.

They entered into the house but couldn't find Ruhi.
Mahir asked the maid, ' Where is Ruhi? '
The maid replied, ' Mahir Sir, she's in her room. '

Mahir and Abhay went upstairs towards her room but stopped outside as some loud talks were heard by them.

Ruhi's Mom said, ' Ruhi, my child, this is the last time I'm explaining you. Beta, forget Mahir. He doesn't love you at all. He loves Bela. '

Ruhi shouted, ' Enough, Mom. You don't know how much efforts I had to put in order to make Mahir mine.
And remove that Bela from his life.
That farewell night, I bribed the waiter to spill drink on Mahir's shirt.
When he was alone in the room, I tricked him to confess his love and also made sure that Bela saw it and misunderstood him.
You've no idea how much I hate Bela.
I HATE HER.'

' But I love her.', the door snapped opened and Mahir entered along with Abhay.

Ruhi's eyes widened with shock.
She stammered, ' M..Mahir '

Mahir said in an angry tone, ' How could you do this Ruhi? I thought you were my friend.
Forget about me, but, Bela? She was your childhood friend.
How dare you? '

Ruhi replied, ' Mahir, I did all these because I love you..'

Before she could speak further, Mahir shouted, ' I LOVE BELA.
DID YOU HEAR IT? I LOVE BELA. '

Ruhi tried to argue, ' But Mahir she doesn't love you.
Remember what she was saying that night? The only thing she cares about is her studies and her career.
Mahir, she left you for that London university offer letter.
You can never be in her priority list! '

' Mahir was always her priority! ', Abhay came into the picture, ' Bela never accepted that offer letter. '

Mahir was shocked would be an understatement.
He thought, ' Since 1 year I was living under this misunderstanding. I was blaming you Bela. I never asked you anything when you left.
I am sorry, my love.
I was angry on you but trust me I could never hate you.
But where are you Bela? In what situation are you?
Trust me, this time I won't let you go.'

He gritted his teeth and warned Ruhi, ' This time if you play any nasty game with us, then trust me, I won't spare you.
Stay away from me and my love. '

He then turned towards her mother, ' Aunty, as far as I know you, you're a good person. Please ask your daughter to change herself.
Otherwise don't blame me for the consequences. '

Mahir and Abhay left her house and all gathered at Mahir's place.

When everyone listened the truth, they were shocked too.
Even Vikrant now understood why Bela and Vish left Dehradun.

Vikrant asked, 'Mahir, now what will you do? '

Mahir said, ' I'll find her, Vikrant. I'll regain her love and get her back in my life.
But the question is, where is she? '

Vikrant looked at Abhay and he nodded.

Vikrant said, 'Mahir, she's in MUMBAI..'

Mahir again asked shockingly, ' Whattt?! Mumbai!?'
