บททั้งหมดของ Betraying Myself: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

Drugs. Disc. Alcohol. Sell. Disappointment.  Fluttering my eyes open, I was met by the light, disturbing my gaze. I blinked rapidly to push the headache, and gripped the hard surface, digging my nails.  Someone hissed. Alarmed I hoisted my gaze up. Dhruv crinkled smile welcomed me.  "You're awake." I blinked rapidly again and looked around, but my head felt heavy and stars danced my view. "Don't move your head. We'll reach the apartment soon."  "I – I—"  Throat felt raspy. I didn't know why but I put my head in his neck, inhaling and soothing my head. His lips brushed over my ear, and the shiver ran through my back and jumpiness settled in my stomach. I couldn't speak. Humiliation clasped my heart. I wanted to apologise to him for my behaviour and actions. He walked out

It was same like this for next few days—or nights. Mom would come to my room, and sleep with me. One time, I burst into tears and snuggled in her lap, crying my heart out. I was missing Dhruv. He didn't try to contact me again and I started regretting my decision for leaving him. He loved me and I didn't know why I wasn't going to him. Nobody asked me where I was for two days. Dad went out of the town that night only. Mom said it was an emergency but I didn't pay attention. In college, my friends asked but I said nothing, and at last, they gave up. One day I went to Abhi house. He told me he was leaving Delhi after graduation. He was going to Mumbai to pursue his film directory line. He looked better than before, no more heartbroken boy who had no idea what to say and how to behave. I was happy seeing him and asked if he was okay. "Sanchi, I can't spend my whole life in misery for her betrayal.

Dhruv POV Their were moments you hated in your life. Moments you wanted never to come and that you could press the skip button and never face them. It was like GTA 5. When you hate a mission, you skip it and jump onto another, avoiding the difficulties. I wish life was like a GTA 5 but it wasn't and I had to face the dreaded moment. "Dhruv, get out of the room." Kabir banged the door. "We'll miss the flight.""Coming, idiot," I yelled. "And fucking lower your voice, Ria is eating."Pushing the wallet in my pocket, I opened the wardrobe and collected the small box. Kabir and Rahul yelled my name back. Peering at the ceiling, I asked again why they both were my friends.Because you love them.Sanchi words echoed. Glaring at the door, I opened it and gave them a duh look. They returned the favour. "Fuckers." They both flipped me off. Where was Alina to control him? Kabir pointed his finger at my chest. "This time you cursed. Isn't it Ria?"My cruel daughter nodded and walked to me,

“You packed everything?” Mom asked for the tenth time. Suppressing the groan, I nodded, helping the driver to put the luggage at the back. “Medicines? Towels? Remember to wear warm clothes if it gets cold. Don’t forget to eat, and most importantly, stay away—“ Whirling, I placed my hands on her shoulder, silencing her marathon of reminders she had been putting in my mind since a week. Ever since I told her I was going on a road trip with Dhruv and his friends, she had been worried to hell. I had reminded her Dhruv was there—her servant. He was truly her servant. They both would get together, discuss my bad habits and how much of a bad person I was. The only thing I could do was watch them, and wonder how they could be my mother and boyfriend. They both were gossip queens along with dadi. Talking all the hot news of the area, media, celebrity and everything from scarp. Even Meghna had become tired of them. “I’ve packed everything.” I cocked my head to the side. “And you double ch

[ D H R U V ' S P O V ]Shedding the sleep off from my eyelids, I got up from the bed, leaving the blanket and ran my hand through my messy hair. Sleep tumbled down but the weariness and headache was thrashing my head.I couldn't sleep off after the crying, acted like I had slept to make Sanchi doze to the peaceful night. She didn't have to get up, and see how much fucked we all could get. That behind the act of a merry group laid the most fucked up people of the world.Fucked up seemed like an understatement.Grabbing the shirt from the floor, I wore it. I needed a strong coffee to curb the hangover. I shouldn't have gotten drunk. I should have known my limits, and been adhere to them. Stupid, nonsense me.The blanket was nearly falling on the floor. Fisting it in my hands, I covered Sanchi, letting it rest till her chest but her shivering didn't stop. Cold. It was too cold here and this stupid girl had no ounce of care about herself. No matter what I do, she never understood how a
