A RoNakshi FF- Hero for Hire

Chapter 33

Sonakshi shut the door in his face.
She slid down on the floor, her head in her hands.

The tears wouldn't stop.

He loves me! Oh God!! He loves me!

                     *****

She shut the door in his face.

Dear God! Yeh kya hogaya?
I love you Sonakshi..or apni ghaltiyon ki wajah se..tumhe kho diya...

He moved away from the door, her sobs tearing his heart apart.

He walked dejectedly away from there, as if the world had ended and he had no where to go.

My world has ended..how will I ever live..without you..

Rohit moved ahead of the corridors, not even looking where he was going.

A hand suddenly grabbed his and pulled him inside a dark room.

'What the..??'

As his eyes adjusted to the dim lights, he saw that he was inside a storage room, with cleaning supplies.

He turned on hearing the door being locked.

'Who the hell..' he shouted.

'It's me!'

He was unable to believe his ears.

'Sonakshi?'

She came forward in the low light, towards him.

'Sonakshi I'm sorry..'

She came forward and shoved him by the shoulder, so that he backed up.

'Mr. Rohit Sippy! Tum apne aap ko samajhte kya ho?'

He moved further back, as she advanced.

'Har faisla khud hi lene ka haq tumhe kis ne diya?'

With every sentence she shoved his shoulder.

'I'm sorry..'

'You should be!'

Sonakshi inched closer. He moved back further till his back touched the wall.

'Tumhari problem kya hai?'

'I'm so sorry..'

'Record attak gaya hai kya? Ek hi baat dohraye ja rahe ho..'

'Meri samajh hi nahin araha..'

'Han budhoo jo thehre..'

'Sonakshi..'

'Sona nahin bolo ge?'

He was dumbfounded.

'What?'

Sonakshi was now so close, even in the dim light he could see her troubled expression.

'Shayari karte ho, meri pasand ki cheezen bhejte ho, meri parwah karte ho, mere ghar rishta bhejte ho..or ek baat kehne mein itna waqt laga diya..ke mujh se pyaar karte ho?'

Her words were loud in the silence that ensued.

'I..I..tum..kya..'

'Lagta hai dimagh bhi ansoo'on ke saath beh gaya..you crazy, stupid man!'

Sonakshi poked a finger on his chest.

'Sonakshi, I know I hurt you, lekin believe me, mein sirf jaan na chahta tha ke tum mere liye kya feel..batana chahta tha ke mein..'
