A shiver went through her spines when she felt the body wrapping her around.
Wait..She realised that it was Sid.She turned around and gave a gentle push on his chest and again turned around to leave.
"Are my touches uncomfortable for you now??"
Aarohi,who was moving ahead,froze on her place when she heard that question.Was it like that?Well,Yes.She have hugged him before but she never felt that shiver before.They have hugged and fought and beaten each other.She never felt that touch so electrifying then why is it happening now?Can a single acknowledgement of their marriage change their feelings.
She came back to reality with a flash and ran towards her room.Sid followed her but before he could reach her she already locked herself in the room.
...
Next morning,
Sid woke up late after a entire night crawling on the bed.He went down and met Mrs. Jain standing beside dining table with a pale face.
"Chhoti maa,where is Aarohi?Is she better now?"
"She headed to school before I woke up.I think our plan to marry you guys isn't that great.Well it might be for us but seeing her reaction,it's not,for you guys."She said with a pale weak voice while cleaning some wet plates with a cloth.
"Chhoti maa,what are you saying.We will only do whatever you expect us to do.Don't worry, she is a rational girl and know what to do.As for me,I hardly slept three hours last night and thought of our marriage plans.I think I am ready to accept her as fiance as for now...Five to seven year later,if she agrees,I will marry her."
Eyes of Mrs.Jain found sparkle the moment she heard what he said.For her, approval of Sid was more important than Aarohi.She went with rocket speed towards him and hugged him.
....
Emerald Heights International school.
Aarohi entered the corridor with a pale face.She was still thinking about her marriage with Sid.The entire night she thought of those consequences of her rejection or agreement.
"Gosh,look at that beauty with big dark circles."a tall figure stood in front of her and said those words.
Aarohi looked up to the face and as expected it was again Faisal.She looked at him with so pale face that even the irritation that she always carry whenever she is with him,didn't appear.
"Were you partying last night?You didn't even show up yesterday.Where were you?"a series of questions was presented by Faisal in front of Aarohi.She ignored him and made her way to the class room.Faisal got irritated by her reaction.He beat the earth hardly with his right leg.
He followed her to her classroom and noticed that she was not ignoring everyone,she was just lost somewhere.When Minie approached Aarohi,Aarohi tightly hugged her as if she was meeting her for the last time.
"What happened? Aarohi,are you okay?"
Aarohi hardly had some friends and she needed some support and advise from someone of her age.If it was any other issue,she would have discussed it with Sid but this issue was already related to Sid.
"I-I am not..f..fine.I got..to know som..something..yesterday.But I can't tell you that right now.I am just asking for some support right now.Can you give me that without asking further question?"She said in a broken voice but soon she gathered words to converse normally.Minie's brows were knitted.She pinched the bridge of her nose.
"Okay.I am with you,Okay.I will not ask questions that will hurt your privacy."Minie assured her.
"Lets go to canteen."Minie nodded in agreement and both the girls headed towards canteen while Faisal came out and watched the two little figures disappearing.
'What have happened so harsh that she need support of outsiders?What must have made her go lifeless?'Faisal thought as he dialled the number of his right hand.
"Hello,gather information if any issue is going on with Jain family.Any accident or business problem,anything like that which could make the family member worry.Also gather other information as much as possible."
He hanged up and soon after got call from other side.
"hello."
"Boss,business of Jains is doing great in condition of boom and none of their member or relative visited any doctor recently.Neither they have any court cases pending nor do they have problems with their parental side.Even the relation of Third generation of Jains have gone better with second generation.This is how much I was able to gather."
"Okay."Faisal said and hung up the phone.
'God!This curiosity will kill me.'Faisal thought as he put the cell phone in his pocket which rang again.He picked up
"Speak."he ordered as he saw the same name again.
"Sorry,boss.I forgot to tell you.There is a guest in their family right now.He came yesterday.Although no one saw his face,but he is about eighteen to twenty year old."
"A male?"Faisal's eyes darkened.
