Chapter 9 - Chapter 9

Arjun -

After talking and discussing somethings with Izak they signed the contract successfully. He was happy. He always wanted to work with the 'De Raz' . He had heard so much about it and now today he had got the chance. The only problem was he met someone unexpected. His thoughts again went to Ana. She has become a beautiful man. She was not the person he remembered. He remembered her as a shy and a nerdy girl. But she is not. That's when he realised that everything she made them believe was a façade. He was angry but he couldn't scold her because even he didn't tell her anything about his family background.

With a heavy mind he went to their apartment. It has only been a day but had started to miss home. He wanted to go home. he missed his mothers food. he missed his Isha. With everything running in his mind Arjun was utterly exhausted. He wanted a break.

When he came to the apartment Siddharth and Rohan were watching tv were eating something. After greeting them he went to his room to take a wash. When he come down both of his friends were eagerly waiting for his arrival. He knew what they wanted to hear. So after making himself comfortable he recited the things happen the Raz building today.

Today they decided to go to have some fun. Rohan told that it will be fun to go to a club. Arjun was against this idea though. He was never a fan of clubs. He despised that idea. Even when they were in university he never went clubbing. When Rohan and Siddharth went clubbing he remembered that he and Ana stayed at their apartment and did many fun things. He missed those days. Arjun knew no matter what he believed he missed Ana so much. Ana was his best fried for three years and she became close to him more than anyone those years. But what can he do now?

Pushing those thoughts behind Arjun got ready to hit the club. Even he did not like this he decided to do this for his friends.

They arrived at one of the most luxurious clubs in London. There were lots of people and the club was very much crowded. Arjun wanted to go away. But he went in anyways. So after going in they settled in a place a started to enjoy their self.

Like this they stayed in the club for sometime. That's when he saw a familiar figure. When he observed carefully he saw Ana with a man. He was holding he too close to his liking. He wanted to rip his hands away. They were dancing and enjoying themselves . 'Ana don't like clubs' he thought to himself. But that's when he realized that that Ana was only ana illusion. He was eagerly looking ay the couple. The way she hugged the man, the way she murmur things in the mans year. While looking at them Arjun started to get some flashback of that cursed night where everything went downhill.

Arjun was ashamed of himself for thinking of another woman when he had a fiancée he loved dearly back home. He heard Rohan calling him but he was not in the mood.

Rohan-

Seeing that his friend is looking at some one dazed Rohan called at where Arjun was looking. That's when he saw the figure. The figure who had made a huge turn in their life the figure that had made their life upside down some years ago. She was dancing with another man. And here Arjun was looking at her as there is no tomorrow. Rohan knew he had to do something. With that thought he made himself to where Ana was dancing. He stayed a moment and went up to her and decided to talk to her.

Rohan was fed up with this pretending. No matter what happened in the past she was their friend at some point of time. So he wanted to talk to her. The more they pretend the more they will have to suffer . He knew it. So he muster up his courage and went near her.

" Hello , may I have this dance with this beautiful lady" he said to Ana.

The man she was dancing looked at him surprised. The man was looking at him intently. The man wanted to chase him away and Rohan could feel it in his facial expressions. But he didn't want to give up.

For both of their surprise Ana accepted his invitation.

"yes , of course " said Ana

With that Rohan took Ana in to her arms and start to dance. for a few minutes they danced in a comfortable silence.

Ana was dancing as she didn't know him. she is still keeping up the pretense. That irked him a lot. So he decided to keep his ego aside and talk to her.

" Hello , Ana long time no see" he said to her

She looked surprised but was able mask away the surprise.

"Hello to you too " said Ana to him. He could feel the uncertainty in her voice. Rohan had enough . So he decided to drop the act and talk to her directly.

" Now lets drop the act now shall we. " said Rohan to Ana in a strict tone.

Rohan could sense that Ana was surprised with his sudden change. She looked at him annoyed but then suddenly talked to him making him surprise.

" What do you want Rohan. " suddenly Ana barked at him

He knew the façade she was wearing has now gone. He was happy about it. He wanted to have a decent talk with her. And now he is going to have it.

" I have so much to talk to you. but it is not only me. let me take you to the others" said Rohan.

"what the hell did you say. I am not meeting anyone" said Ana

" You can't say no. Now let's go shall we" she told him in a very stern voice.

Ana was hesitant but nevertheless she agreed.

With that they went to the place where Arjun and Siddharth was staying. She took hesitant steps towards the place.

Rohan could sense the nervousness . But this was not the time to give up. They had to have a talk with this woman. If not now there want be any other day.

Arjun-

Arjun saw Rohan walking towards Ana and then asking her for a dance. He didn't know what Rohan was playing.

Was he trying to make amends with her now or was he trying to seduce her he thought to himself

Thinking about the latter part made him really uncomfortable. He knew he had no right to think like that. But he had it anyways. Even he was surprised of the thought he was having now.

He watched how Rohan approached her and took her in his arms. How both of them danced. He so bad wanted it to be him. And in the next moment he saw Ana and Rohan walking towards them.

He didn't know how to face her. After four long years when he is going to face her he thought . And the thought was really damn frustrating for him.

Before he think of something to leave this uncomfortable meetup both Ana and Rohan were standing before him. He wanted to meet her but not this way. He wanted it be in a rather comfortable place than club. Arjun looked at Ana. She was looing at them smiling as if nothing mattered. She is beautiful he thought to himself.

Rohan gestured Ana to sit. She sat there looking uncomfortable to face them. Arjun could sense it. Before anyone could talk Ana was the one who broke the silence between them.

She smiled at them sweetly .

" hi, Arju and Sid nice to meet you guys " he heard her saying

Arjun couldn't believe what he was hearing after all these years after all the things happened between them this is what she had to say. This damn woman. He looked at her in disbelief and smiled at her. Nevertheless he greeted her.

" hi, Ms Iziyana De Raz" he said to her

Siddharth also greeted her in a very formal tone. And then begin the uncomfortable silence.

No one knew how to break the silence. And Arjun was thankful for it because he did not know what he should tell her at this moment.
