My face burned with embarrassment and I tried to get out as the lift doors opened to save myself but he caught my arm and asked to follow him and dragged me to the terrace. I found myself trapped between him and the all familiar wall again. "I thought we are never to like each other again?" He asked, reminding me of what I said two weeks ago."It's your mistake to choose a college so far from me. Baby, I can't just stay away from you for 2 weeks and you are going away for god knows how long", I said frustrated to even fight! He looked at me for a good few seconds and all of a sudden caught my lips with his and the space between us exploded. My heart kept skipping beats as his hands wandered over the bare skin under my shirt. I will never get enough of him. I don't know if it was a minute or an hour when I pulled away as my lungs demanded to breathe, he went on kissing me from my jaw to the neck."You better not ignore me like that again", I panted out left breathless as he is leaving hickeys on my neck. He stopped kissing me and looked into my eyes like he cannot believe what I just said."Really? Am I the one who suggested a break when we have less than 3 months", he let out glaring at me. I don't know what to say and I don't want to fight when this is not anyone's mistake. My eyes started watering, and his softened.He came to me and caught my cheeks between his hands "I am sorry, alright I know you were afraid about our relationship but you just ignored me and left a stupid message to stay friends. I wanted to drag you out of your room and talk some sense but you acted as if nothing happened. So, I acted along", said Darsh which made me feel stupid."I am sorry, I never realised what I made you go through, I just thought about myself", I told hugging him tight and continued saying. "We cannot do anything, you have to move to another city, so let's not waste any more time and spend every second with each other".Nobody knows about our relationship except for Priti who caught us making out in Darsh's room. "I almost forgot, how dare you call me and Abhi lovebirds?" I said hitting him on the chest. He caught my arm and made me circle them around his neck as he pulled me into him by the waist. "It looked like you both were having a moment", he said which made me laugh. "Were you jealous?", I inquired. I am a little shocked to learn that he was jealous of our best friend. "So, what if I was? he said lifting his brow.I laughed out before I said, "I lost the bracelet you gave me on our first date, he found that for me". After that, We spent the whole afternoon making out and trying to get us forgive each other. Eventually went down when our moms called nonstop."Ava, Darsh, get in here, lets have lunch", called Tara Aunty from my apartment. Looks like my mom and his were cooking together again. "Ma we just had brunch", said Darsh."Hey, we have to ask them about the farmhouse", I reminded him as we went into my flat. "Don't worry I'll convince them". •_______•"WHAT THE FREAKING HELL", shouted Virin coming into my room."I thought this was our escape from our parents and now they join us too?! What the hell Ava?" Asked Virin. "You know our moms are close and especially my mom and Abhi's mom they are best friends since they were kids." Before I could finish, he cut me off saying "So what if they are friends? This is our week". " listen Virin! they were planning something too and when they heard about our plan they wanted to have a get-together of families just like old times". I tried to convince him.Darsh was informing Abhi about the change of plans and our moms were having a conference call with Abhi, Priti and the twin's moms. "Okay no one was prepared for this but it's not that bad don't throw a tantrum little girl", said Kyra which shifted Virin's attention from shouting at me to searching for good comebacks against his twin."Could you please cover those Hickeys?", whispered Priti. I instantly covered them with my hair. "I thought you were on a break?" She smirked watching me struggling to cover. "Well, you see I cannot resist your cousin for long", I winked smiling back at her. ~~~****~~~March 3rd, 2015Darsh's pov:"You have to believe me! She rolled her eyes at me when I kissed you", she said glaring at my dog. I am trying so hard not to snort at her silly complaining, as she sat on my lap hugging me.I never thought I would be this eager and patient, listening to everything that she talks about. Because I hated listening to people blabbering. I still do except for her. I look uninterested when she says anything but, I listen to every word that comes out of her. I still remember the first time I saw her, eyes twinkling with a little drool on the left which made me laugh. She tries to be the best actor but fails miserably and gets caught for every silly prank she played on girls that neared my shadow.This crazy girlfriend of mine stalked me from the day I met her. She used to have my whole schedule for the week. From the shirt, I am going to wear to what I am craving to eat she knew everything. It never freaked me out, instead made me feel like the luckiest ass in
March 6th, 2015Ava's pov:"Ava, we are concerned too but, Kyra is alright now and they are investigating the case. Just eat, It's been a day since you ate anything.", Abhi tried to make me eat for the hundredth time now. It's not like I am on a hunger strike. It's just that it all happened in just a blink of an eye. From being immature teenagers to victims and suspects. They took Darsh for investigation. It's all too much to digest and whenever I tried taking a bite it comes out.I have been sitting outside the hospital room for more than an hour staring at the wall since they took him. Darsh's parents went to talk to their lawyer. Virin and his family sat here with us. My mom is comforting twin's mom."I am sorry to bother you further. But, we need to ask some questions regarding the case", a police officer approached Kyra's father. He said that's not a problem."If you don't mind I need to talk with Darsh and Kyra's friends", they asked further. For which my mom said there is an
Darsh's pov:I sat in a wooden chair in front of a wooden desk and a man is sitting on the other side of the table drinking his evening tea with the saucer on his potbelly. According to them, I tried to kill my friend and the evidence is the 'keychain'. Fu*k my life."Sir, I have been sitting here, for more than an hour. First of all, this is a waste of time to investigate me when someone who stabbed her is still out there", I said causing his moustache to twitch a little for disturbing his time with the teacup."Hmm, we will be the judge of whether or not this is a waste of time", he said taking pen and paper out. And started asking the same questions all over again for which I replied, "The keychain is mine, I am not denying it. But, it was with me in the car when I took Kyra to the hospital. She must have grabbed something else from the criminal. This keychain is just a distraction." I further continued saying, "My girlfriend can confirm that I was home when Kyra got kidnapped and
Ava's pov:I most definitely didn't imagine my week like this, when I suggested we should plan something for this weekend in the cafe. My mom is driving me home, fuming from the conversation at the hospital."How long has this been going on? How long have you been lying and sneaking around with him?!", she asked as soon as we got home, shocking the hell out of me."What do you even know about us to talk like that!", I screamed. "Shut up! Don't even try to defend what you did! Is this what you were doing whenever you said you are going to Priti's?""Ma, please if you found out this any other way, you wouldn't react like this", I tried to explain. "Mmhmm, how would I react any other way when I find that my daughter is sleeping around!", she shouted."Mom! How could you say that?!", I exclaimed disgusted to even hear those words from her. Is she the women I know? I know she was against relationships and obsessed about the status. But, to jump to conclusions this way? She didn't even let
March 13th, 2015Ava's pov:"You stay right here. Don't pull any other stunt, I'll be back in 10 mins", said my mom leaving me with Kyra and Priti in the hospital room. I nodded keeping my head down. I tried to look as innocent as possible till she left.I released my breath and sat comfortably on the couch at the end."Omg, I am eloping with Darsh. Final!", I cried out leaning back.Kyra snorted while Priti gave me are you serious look. "What? I am serious. Get ready to be an aunt Priti", I said looking serious. "Gosh, stop it. Your mom will through you out the window if she heard you.""It wouldn't be worse than her lecture", I said rolling my eyes. "It's been a week since I saw him. She even took my phone when she caught me coming back after I met Darsh that night", I felt helpless and exhausted mentally."Umm, I am not saying that it's nothing. But, it's better than getting stabbed by a psycho", said Kyra. I felt sorry for her and I am glad that they finally caught the criminal who
Ava's pov:My mom was back from the canteen after a good 15 mins and said we are leaving. I left the door before she could complete the sentence, 'let's go', and she looked at me confused.I was speed walking in the halls when she caught up with me and asked, "Why do look like that?", maybe I am not as good at trying to keep up the blank look. "Nothing", I said gritting my teeth not to shout in the halls. "God, what did you do now?", she mumbled making me stop in my tracks. That's it! "Do you hate me that much that you didn't even give me a choice for who I want in my life?!", I shouted as she halted. "What do you mean?", she looked at me. "When were you going to tell me about the engagement?", I deadpanned as her face shown her realization."Ava, let me explain. It's not as bad as you thin..", she is still defending it! I once again started to walk, not minding the excuse she is giving me leaving her behind.I am sick of this! All that drama and restriction was because of her disap
March 20, 2015Ava's pov:"I just fed you for God sake! let me take a nap", I said dozing off as the dog barked in my ears again. "Aish! What is it?", I said getting up. I started counting my fingers going over the things I did, walking check, feeding check. "What? It's just been a week since I got you! It takes time to remember. Don't give me that look", I said looking at her disapproving eyes. "Oh we had to buy a collar!", I exclaimed and she wagged her tail. "Huh got it, let's go!", I said picking her up. •_____•"Leave it, leave it! It's too expensive! Are you trying to loot me!", I whisper yelled trying to pull the collar she grabbed in her mouth fighting like a kid in toy store. Out of all the cheap ones she could have picked! Gosh, I am not giving in to those dog eyes no! Ugh, I paid for the collar giving up every penny in my purse as she wagged her tail happily with the collar and belt. "Don't flaunt yourself much. There are no other dogs here". I
August 2015Ava's pov:'Please check the number you have dialled'. I heard the same automated voice I got used to over the months. He is not going to come back, how hard is it to accept?I squatted down as I placed a finger over the wall where the immature me wrote D&A in a heart. I looked around the terrace, taking a deep breath as heaviness started creeping in. Every spot here had a memory of us. I was trying to push down the longing feeling when my phone started ringing. "Ava, they are leaving now. Come down", said Abhi. Why did I still hope if it was him who called? How pathetic. "Yeah, I will be there in a minute". •______•"Miss me every day okay!", I laughed as Virin kissed my cheek hugging me."Yeah don't irritate Priti much. She is not used to you as much as me", I said wiping his tears with my sleeves. "Out of all the colleges, he could have applied to!", Priti groaned crossing her arms ready to hop in the car. "I still don't know how they accep
