Chapter 16

Arpit and Anjali shared glance as Pakhi played with her food in the morning.

Pakhi was not well and anyone could point it out.

"Aren't you in hurry ?" Mr. Raichand asked making Pakhi pout.

"No I don't want to go." Pakhi mumble grumpily.

"You can ask for sick day leave."

"Can't. I have work to do. I m not the boss like you." Pakhi said making everyone laugh on the table.

"Do you want me to drop you Princess?" Arpit asked Pakhi.

"No need I can take driver."

"As you wish." Arpit got up from his chair. Before leaving he kissed Pakhi's forehead.

"Even I am leaving." Anjali followed Arpit not before hugging Pakhi 

"We need to catch up. Ok?" Anjali said.

Pakhi just nodded her head in responce.

"I am free I will drop you off." Mr. Raichand said. 

Pakhi was busy looking at her phone.

"Is work stressful? Do you want to quit?" Mr. Raichand asked as they were on the way to Singhania Fashion house.

"No dad. Defiantly not. i love what I am doing." Pakhi replied in a heartbeat.

"Ok relax I just th-"

"You worry too much and you have promised." Pakhi said cutting her father off

"Ok sorry. You just seemed lost that's why sweetheart."

"Nothing dad. I m fine. Trust me. I'm just caught up in something." Pakhi reassured her father.

"Ok fine I trust you."

Pakhi was feeling empty. She wasn't able to put the name on her emotions. The hoax in her head was too much for her.

After their little ice cream date when Raghav dropped her off although she smiled brightly at him to wish good bye but she wasn't good at all.

All she wanted to do is to hug him. She pretended that it wasn't a big deal but Raghav going back to the Landon has affected her.

She felt guilty to make others around her worry. She cursed herself that she was an open book for people around her to read.

Pakhi released another sigh looking at her phone.

'I am taking off. You must be sleeping. Take care.'

This was the last text she received from her.

She knew he must be still in the plane but she couldn't stop herself from looking at her phone hoping to receive any news.

"Did something happen?" Sid asked. 

Pakhi was lost since morning.

"No man just you know." Pakhi smiled at him

"See I have made some changes have a look." Pakhi avoided his attention.
