*Shrishti Pov*
“Movie? But I don’t know when can I come to your home.” I mumbled in return for his suggestion.
“It’s okay! I don’t have any particular movie in mind to watch. We will adjust according to the time you can come here. Or we can meet directly at the mall.” He offered and I smiled accepting his plan before we both hang up.
“You look happy, Shrishti.” I turned around to find Leela Aunty who seems to just reach the living room from the kitchen looking at me with a smile.
“I am!” I whispered and hugged her back.
It’s been a long time since I actually tried to spend time with her as I gave myself a goal to be as independent as possible. Of course, that goal went into some black hole as I ended up being dependent on Nitish.
However, somewhere it feels like I am actually not that dependent on Nitish like I was with my friends in the pa

*Nitish Pov*More than a continuous trail of complaints, a long-term silence is deadly. I know Shrishti must have got hurt because of today’s events with Mom ignoring her presence and also her idea to make Lisa stay at home.She suddenly dragged me out of the house and didn’t say a word no matter how much I am asking her.Right now, we are sitting inside a theatre but we both are not paying any attention to the movie for sure.She sighed again and I finally turned to stare at her only to see her not even staring at the screen.“Let’s go from here.” I whispered holding her hand and she nodded not even turning to glance at me.After we reached the car, I felt it is better to find a place to have a good talk and drove towards a park and parked it.“Shrishti! I am sorry on my Mom’s behalf. She really needs just some time to get to know you and I am sure you both will

*Shrishti Pov*“Shrishti!” I got startled while breaking away from the thoughts roaming in my head.“What?” I asked staring at the four people who are staring right at me with questioning looks.“Is something wrong?” Prathap asked frowning and I shook my head smiling.“You should have brought Nitish with you. We didn’t talk to him properly that day and didn’t get a chance to meet him properly and have a talk.” He added leaning back.“What talk?” I asked to which he glanced at Anny.“Nothing! Just to know him a bit…” he cut his words from which Vikranth continued saying, “Also to let him know us a bit.”“He already knows you all as I talked to him too much about our friendship. Also, he is busy right now with work and even we are unable to meet properly these days.” Again is what I would I to

*Nitish Pov*“You are okay now?” Shrishti asked staring at my face with a worried look.I don’t know! I mean, will she scold me if I say I was jealous of her praising Vikranth than anything else right now?Today’s conference kind of boosted up my confidence to get back on track but when I heard her praising Vikranth the moment I opened the door, I felt a sense of loss.At the same time, I felt glad to hear her words expressing my trouble because of Rohan’s actions. If he was not my friend then I would have fired him and even sued him long ago.I tried my best to not be harsh but today hearing her saying the words in my heart just made me wish I clap for her. However, my jealousy won over this feeling and I kind of messed it up I think.If not for our promise in the past that we will not point out our pasts, I would have said this honestly.However, I understand her heart too

*Shrishti Pov*“Shrishti? When did you reach home?” I smiled at Dad’s shock before waving at him from the dining area.“Early in the morning! You were sleeping and so I didn’t disturb you. Will you have breakfast?” I asked gesturing my plate.“Definitely! It’s been a few weeks since I saw you.” He replied taking his seat and continued to smile at me.“Will you stay home or go to the hotel? I already told you that Nitish can stay here comfortably as I don’t stay much.” He continued while I cleared my throat at the way he is so open about it.“I am not going to the hotel this time, Dad. Nitish is busy and is actually not in the city right now.” I explained and he frowned a bit.“I am hearing that word a lot recently.” He mumbled while I nodded at his statement.Recently, I can use the word busy to mention Nitish

*Nitish Pov* “Nitish!” I finally found the source of the voice after looking around and smiled before walking closer to the crowd where she is waiting for me. “I told you that I can come to the hotel on my own.” She smiled hugging me and we both reached the place where I parked my car. “Was it tiring?” she asked helping me with the luggage while I shook my head. “The flight got delayed a bit and that’s why I am late. You read my message and came at the changed time, right?” I asked starting the engine while she cleared her throat. “That’s why I said I will come directly.” I sighed but she suddenly leaned over to kiss my cheek. “I missed you!” she whispered shifting away but I pulled her back and kissed her properly. “Thank you for taking leave today for my sake.” I whispered letting her go and she smiled while gesturing me to drive. After we reached the hotel, she made me take a rest no m

*Shrishti Pov*“Madam!” I groaned when I felt someone shaking me and slowly opened my eyes to find one of the helpers looking at me worriedly.“What happened, Aunty?” I asked clearing my throat while she checked my forehead.“How are you feeling, Madam?” she asked back and I took a deep breath before letting out a yawn.“I am fine now. Don’t worry about me. I can even go to work after this weekend.” I replied smiling but she didn’t smile back.“It’s true! It’s already been three days since I felt sick and I am fine now.” I assured her and she slowly nodded before stepping back.I glanced at the clock on the bedside to find it’s already past eleven. I gave her a smile and got down from the bed but immediately returned to my previous posture when I started feeling dizzy.“Can you prepare some food, Aunty? I gues

*Shrishti Pov*“Are you still not feeling well, Ma’am? I thought you will get better by taking a rest over the weekend.” My assistant mumbled while I checked the client details for the next event.Rest? I even forgot the meaning of that word. The plan of mine was to take as much rest as possible during the weekend and start working with full energy from Monday.However, I just ended up feeling worse than before and now I don’t even want to keep my eyes open but had to as I already took a long leave before the weekend.If it was Jenny who is my assistant then I could have left everything with her to take another week’s leave but now I can’t do it and on top of that, I don’t want to spend another week 24/7 in that villa with those people.I believed Nitish to settled them down a bit after telling him what happened but it turned worse as they both just stared at me as if I am a c

*Shrishti Pov*“Shrishti! Shrishti!” I groaned opening my eyes only to feel dizzy and immediately closed them back.“I will call the doctor.” What… what is she doing here?After adjusting my eyes a bit, I opened them to see I am in a hospital room and sat up looking around.“How are you feeling now, Ms. Shrishti?” Doctor asked checking my eyes and I gave him a nod before glancing at the person standing beside him.“You can go home but make sure to start the supplements and also avoid any stressful situations to not have another panic attack.” Saying that he walked away and I realized that I actually had a severe panic attack after a long time where I lose my consciousness too.“How are you feeling? Why don’t you stay in the hospital for the night?” she asked reaching my side.“Jenny! What are you doing here? How can you be in
