Inevitable Part 46

To say the ride to the airport was silent was an understatement.. none of them uttered a single word.. Sidharth stared straight on the road while Sana kept her gaze fixed outside her window..

They had hardly spoken anyway since the dreaded phone call.. after she was done packing, his mom called them for dinner, and despite of multiple attempts from her to get them talking none of them backed of their ego trip and left the house for airport an hour earlier than they were supposed to.

Shehnaaz had anticipated this to be painful separation when she woke up in the morning.. but certainly not this way.. she knew she would be crying when she leaves but not like this.. and so had Sidharth.. he knew it would be difficult for him to let her go today. Especially after the last couple of days when she seemed to have opened up to him so much..

Never in his dreams he thought they will be parting like this tonight.. all his promises that he had made to himself not even 24 hrs ago, to not get angry at her or to hurt her went through the window.. he had expected that anyway.. but he did not think it would be this soon.. and especially now when she will be away from him again for 2 weeks.. no, 3 weeks he corrected himself his mood turning bitter if it was even possible.. he stole a look at her through the mirror.. her face was blank.. he expected it to be sad or teary but the absolute detached look on her face surprised him.. as if she was getting ready to fight this battle on her.. alone.. and that infuriated him.. why didn't she vent out her frustration.? why did she not call Guru right away and questioned his behaviour? Why did she not come to him!!

He stopped the car on the side of the road not able to take this anymore.. she came out of her daze and looked around to see if they have reached.. but they hadn't and there was no traffic or signal in front of them either.. she looked at him to check why did he stop the car only to see him rubbing his face, his eyes angry, veins popping out in his forehead..

She took a shaky breath.. scared, sad, wrecked.. her heart clenched looking at him..

"Sidharth... " she asked almost a whisper.. when he did not respond she tried to reach his hand that was resting on the gear.. and he jerked it away making her eyes tear up instantly..

He took a deep breath and moved his hand to ignition to start the car again, only to be stopped by Shehnaaz forcefully this time.

"itne gusse mein gadi mat chala please.. please shant ho ja.. tuze meine bola tha mein cab se aa jaungi.. kyu aaya fir.. please tere driver ko call kar.. mein yaha se cab le lungi.. tu driver ke saath ghar ja.. I am sorry meine tuze fir se gussa dilaya.. " she did not expect a response from him and opened her phone to call his driver.. he snatched the phone and threw it down on the car floor without even looking where it fell.. she let out a sigh and picked it up keeping it on the dashboard turning over him.. she wanted to scream at him, fight with him for being mad at her. But she couldn't.. not now when she was leaving.. she just closed off her feelings tending to him instead..

"kya chahta hai tu? bata de.. mein waise hi karungi.. bas ab shant ho ja please? "

"tere Guru ko call kar .. " he said through clenched teeth..

She sighed again rubbing her forehead..

"mein waha jake baat karungi usse... phone pe koi fayda ni hai sidharth aur waise abhi waha raat ke 2 baj rahe hai.. ye time nahi hai kisi ki call karne ka.. "
