Better Together

CHAPTER - 31

Rohit:-(dead serious expression) "How much more will you lie Ruhi? Atleast tell truth, about why you guys went?"

Girls look at each other not knowing what to do.

Rohit:-(seeing them not answering) "So, when I saw someone coming out of Jhanvi's room, was you guys and I was not imagining stuff, like you have told Ruhi. So, what's going on, tell me now orelse I will complain to management, then you guys know the consequences you have to face later. So, tell me what's going on."

Pihu:-"We are trying to investigate Jhanvi's case. "

Inaaya and Ruhi look at Pihu shocked as she told him.

Rohit:-(shocked) "Do you even know what are you saying Pihu?"

Pihu:-"I know it's little shocking to believe but that's the truth. "

Rohit:-"Are you crazy, why would you do something like that? "

Inaaya:-"Sir, can you please not yell and talk softly, we don't want others to know what we are talking. "

Rohit:-(sarcastically) "You expect me to be all cool, when you guys have told me something that like this."

Ruhi:-"We know it's a little shocking thing but that's the truth, we guys had no choice, we had to. And please can you talk softly we don't want people to hear our convo. "

Rohit:-"And you have never thought of telling to me Ruhi."

Ruhi:-"We were not supposed to tell it to anyone, it was supposed to be between us. "

Rohit:-"I was a part of all this, even I was alongside Pihu, when everything happened, so why am I not supposed to be informed. And please do tell me from start whatever happened."

Girls narrate everything that has happened.

Rohit:-"I have no words left, I am speechless. "

Pihu:-"We can understand it's little shocking, but its the truth. We had to take this step. "

Rohit:-"But Pihu do you have surety that Prithvi would not put case on you? "

Inaaya:-"He is a man of his words, he would never take a step back from his words, so we can assure that he wouldn't take a step like that. "

Rohit:- "ohk, I will take a leave. I need sometime to get things wrapped around my head. "

Ruhi:-"Can we please talk for a moment Rohit?"

Seeing that Ruhi and Rohit need privacy Inaaya and Pihu take a leave.

Rohit:-"So, what do you wanna talk about, Ms.Ruhi?"

Ruhi:-"I am sorry, I really mean, my hands were tied, I couldn't tell it to anyone so I didn't. "

Rohit:- "You know what Ruhi, your hands were not tied, it's just that you didn't trust me enough to tell me truth, you just didn't. "

Ruhi:-"It's not like that, you were going through a lot, I couldn't burden you further by telling all this."

Rohit:- "Do you understand, that it is one of the most important thing in my life at this moment, as much as Pihu was a part of it, even I was, so wasn't it my right to know."

Ruhi:-"I was trying to protect you, at this moment I didn't what consequences I have to face by doing all these but all I know is that I want to protect you, you are important to me. Yes, initially we started this for Pihu but now for me it's even you, when you spoke to me about your point of view about the whole situation I felt like it would be wrong if you alone face the wrath of Prithvi, because you were never at fault, you never planned everything or took part in executing the whole thing, you were also a victim of that situation. So, at that moment I decided to even help you out."
