Chereads / ISHA & HER STORY / Chapter 22 - chapter 22

Chapter 22 - chapter 22

Rainy season comes to end ...

The winter is about to begin...

I can't help but think about the first snowfall... I don't know what will happen... But it will be good. I went to the Malhotra Mansion and grabbed a few more things my closet...

Favourite things.... When I think about my first time with Vishal it seems just like a dream to me... Even Vishal seems like a dream to me... No way that I call him up first. He too can call me right? Why me?

My midterms were also over ... And I was so happy that half of the year is over....

I almost had my home decorated.... I love the place... It's just me everywhere.... In everything ..

I am alone in that place but still I liked it...

On my bedroom ceiling.... I have a huge poster of BTS... The ceiling didn't have a fan... Just air conditioned.

So with the ceiling stickers of solar system....then a BTS poster of painted... On ceiling...

In the morning with the sun rays... I can see them in colours... But at night... With the silver light radiating from the stars and different colours from other planets and sun.... The bts looks so amazing at night....

When I open my eyes the next mornings... I look at them... Immediate smile comes to my face...

Jheel and other girls were going to the pub. They invited me and I don't have any reason to say no to them. Havinv some drinks and some fun is all I need to kick start my winter days.

We go to the pub some what away from my place and I invited Geet too. It's been a while that I met her or chit chatted with her.

We reach the club and settle down in a private space. We order the most mind blowing drinks and enjoy among ourselves.

Some friends of jheel were so busy to check out the guys dancing at the center stage in the pub. But I was so busy in chit chatting with Geet and enjoying my drink. Jheel joined us.

We toast our drinks and the sound of clinking of glasses was so good to hear.

One of the girls cams to us and said to check this man out. Who they particularly said is godly handsome ... Fucky heavenly man.... And what not...

I am like what's the problem... To see him once... They are giving so much build up....

I go near the glass window from where you can look down at others... But they can't look at you... As the mirror was just one sided ...

As I see down were they point the fingers... And it was supposed to be the shock of my life to see Vishal out there with some people....

But I don't feel anything... Not happy... Nor sad.. nor excited.... Nothing... The emotions were null.

By seeing him....he looks up as he could see me... I look away.... And go back to seat.. beside geet.

"What's wrong?" Geet asks.

"Umm... Nothing..." I sip my drink.

"He is here...right?" She asks again.

"Yes" I tell.

" Do you wanna leave?" She asks.

"No! When he does not remember to call or even text me... Why should I avoid him? It's not like we had something serious.... It was just a moment...." I tell her.

" No... If you are not ready to face him... I can always help you... You know..." She tells.

" Yaa... I know your with me.... But it's not like I will run into him.... It's just a coincidence I saw him here.... If I didn't leave home today....I wouldnt have even known that he is out there.. looking for new chicks to fuck around" I tell her honestly.

Her jaw dropped.

"I mean don't talk like that about your first like this...." She laughs out.

" Maybe.... Or it was just my infatuation... My obsession.... And nothing more.... I couldn't have remembered his face if I had seen him after a year also". I tell and laugh out loud.

She laughs..

" No one can forget there first.... I mean like.... However it was.... They remember the guy's or girl's face...." She tells.

" So.... Talking about first... When was your first??? Huh? Now tell..." I grab her with my hands .. and she blushes... Oh god... Geet is blushing.... Something is fishy here....

"Okay... As we are talking about.... Maybe I should tell you...." She looks down for a moment and looks up at me.

"Yes... I am on the edge of my seat...." I tell her excitedly.

" Um.... Jian....." She starts.

" Ahhh! I know.... Now... Jian... It is.... You..... What can I tell you.... You bitch...." I tell her playfully.

"Hey... You are the same bitch..." She tells me teasingly.

" Hmm... Tell me the details now..." I tell her...

" Umm... Where should I start.... Mm.... It was a rainy day... Or you can say rainy night.... He dropped me home... And like I asked him to grab a beer near by... But we ended up drinking at home... And maybe ... The moment demanded it... And... You know... We had that special moment of us.... " She tells shyly and innocently.

I am like sis... I knew this is gonna happen now. So... Don't worry.

"But why did you offer beer... When you had a better option of coffee at your place...." I tell her teasingly.

" Coffee would make us come to our senses...and I didn't wanted that... At the moment" she replies.

" Oh my god! I knew it... So what's next... Our company doesnot restricts office romance... You know.." I wink.

"Hmm... We are looking into it... So keep it a secret.... no one knows it " she tells me.

"Okay...a secret.....Locked here" I tell her and zip my lips.

We chit chat and I excuse myself and make my way to the rest room. Avoiding groupies I go to the restroom.

I come out and wash my hands. I hear girls talking about the guy handsome... And they wanna have one night stand with him... While fixing their make ups... Not minding them.

I walk my way to our space and a room door opens as a waitress goes in to deliver some drinks.

I look inside and spot him... Of all the people ... Like ... Why do I have to bother. I stare at the space until it closes after the waitress leaves. I couldnt see much as I was so lost looking at him.

A girl sat on his lap. He moved his hands around her. He looked at the front... My lips.. were like cursing him... The word... Bloody mot**r fuc***.... I was cursing him under my voice and he suddenly looked out for a second and the doors closed.

I rolled my eyes and went to by cabin as if it's nothing... But my heart is asking a 100 questions... At the same time... But I want to look normal.

I didn't tell geet about what I saw .. if she hears or sees.. I swear I don't know... What will my sis do to him... But whatever she will do I was gonna enjoy it .. but.. maybe it's not the moment.

I go back to the girls and enjoy as if there is no tomorrow.

After a while

It was quite late around.... 2 A.M. when we are like.. yes we are done for the day... We go out and I call a driver for me... As I shouldn't drive coz I had a lot of drinks.

Geet offers to go with me. But I said... I can go on my own.

I sat on the passenger seat and the driver starts to drive... He know the location.... It's already sent to him. I relax in the passenger seat.. look out at the night sky and the night city.. so many people are out there.... Enjoying with their loved once.

I am happy that tomorrow is a weekend and no college., And then the lazy Sunday...

I would lay down on my bedding in the balcony and enjoy my kdramas... Which I had no time to watch for the last few months.

I close my eyes for a while to gulp all what I had or experienced today....

I open my eyes blinking frequently.. I see the ceilin... The BTS ceiling... ?? And I am in my room?? What the fuck? How could I end up here? This is not where I started. Where I was. I look around. No one is here... And I am in my club dress only. I go out of the bed room.

And to see that a man is playing in my kitchen? Who the hell is he?

I march towards the kitchen area... And he turns back...

I take few steps back... Like I am taken aback.... How could he end up here.?? Of all the places... How? and even why??

I blink my eyes to see if I was hallucating again...

"Ish ... How have you been?" And this voice I know... It's him... The man I had 100 questions to ask.

go outside... To the kitchen area after hearing the sound.

I see the most amazing man.... Of my life... Vishal..... Standing their in his casuals... With shirt sleeves... Tucked up at his... Elbows.

Squeezing orange juice.

"Ish.. how have you been?" He asks.

I come to my senses.

"What are you doing here?" I ask.

" How have you been?" He asks again.

" I am fine... Like why are u even here?" I ask irritated.

" I am here for you.." he answers.

" I don't want you.. okay? Now.. you can leave " I tell him.

" But I won't leave.." he answers.

" Get the fuck out of here ... Or I will call the security.. I don't care who you are..." I tell him glaring.

" I don't give a damnn about security... No one can stop me... From seeing you... Or coming to you.." he tells like a statement or law.

I take a few steps back and call the security.

" Hello.. uncle... I from the 6th floor 601... There is a trespasser.... Please help me..." I tell him.

" Oh! he said he is your boyfriend... So I let him in with you... You were not in a condition to answer.... so I didn't interfere." he tells non-chalantly.

" But now I am conscious... You can help me now.." I tell him looking at Vishal.

" he said.. you have both quarelled and I don't have to infere in your cute couple fights" and laughs??

" Uncle! Help me!" I yell.

" sorry daughter...I can't interfere between your personal affairs.... If there is something else.... Please tell me. Okay...? Bye " he tells and keeps the phone down.

I am like... What's the use of security then?? When I am unable to access it.. when I am in need ..?

" There's no use of security... Keep your phone down now..." He tells me.

" But why are you here ..? Without a single text or call? Huh?? Do you think I will fall to your knees and ask you to come to me.. if you appear out of the blue in front of me?" I tell in one breathe.

My heart is on fire right now... I can't control my breathing.. it's going insane ... I can't stop.. myself... My eyes all red... No! I shouldn't fall for his face now.

He comes across the kitchen counter towards me.. and takes me into a hug.

" Shh... Stop talking now.. calm down first." He tells and pats my head.

This scent... This warmth I was so missing it.. so hard.... Not thinking about it.... But still a corner in me... Was always missing it... I didn't name it.....

I want to just.... Melt away... In this embrace...

But wait!

Why am I melting?

I break out of the hug.

And walk back two steps.

"Stop it! Now! Don't do this... After this long... You come back to my life like nothing has happened... And it was just yesterday that we met..." I break out in tears.

I can't control myself... Anymore... I collapse on the floor... Cry hard.. like.. I don't know... What else to do... I cant remember... What I had to say to him or ask him.. like.... Till yesterday... I had my mind filled with all the questions... But now.... Why am I unable to ask him.

He sits down infront of me... And cleans my tears.

"Don't cry anymore..I didn't come here to make you cry... " He tells...

" But why are you here now...? And how?" I ask.

"I was at that pub ... I saw when you left there in that car ... With that driver ... I followed you purposely. After sometime.... He stopped the car... And opened the back seat door... I was not sure ... What he was about to do... So I just had a little argument with him... .. and then he was quite injured ... So he left... And you were still not awake... So I had no option but to drive you here..." He tells.

"You should have left me there... Not needed to help me... Whatever would have happened I can bare the consequences.... You shouldnot have interupted. Ok can live on my own..." I tell him.

"No! I can't stand seeing that happen... Not infront of me... Or on my back.... And especially with you.... Coz I..."

I interrupt him..." Shut your mouth... Right now.... I don't want to hear you anymore..." I yell .

"Leave now! " I tell him with a glare....

"Okay only after you finish the hangover drink I made for you.

I nod.

He gets up from the place... Hands me the glass.... I gulp the drink in one go.

"See its over... You can leave now..." I say looking at him.

He gets up and grabs his things from the dining table and heads towards the door...

I walk after him. To close the door after he leaves.

He turns around.

"Ish.. let me stay the night with you.... Please .." he pleads.

" No!" I say sharply.

"I haven't slept properly for the past few months already... Let me... Stay..." He pleads.

" No... Where were you when I wanted you.... Hoping for you to return? N you didn't comeback... " I yell.

" Call or go to your chicks... They will let you sleep on their laps.. or whatever... They will even come and pick you up from here. " I yell again as I remember what I saw at the pub.

" I didn't call okay? But.. did you even think about me..? Like I didn't return that day... So has something happened to me? Was I not fine? Where was I struck? You didn't care to even ask me." He yells.

" Don't you dare yell at me... I am not your fucking chicks that could bear you after hearing your yelling... And if wanna create a scene get the hell out of my house. " I glare at him while yelling back at him.

"Ish... Why do you think that I have made a crime...?" He asks softly.

" Don't you dare come at me now... Why didn't you return that day... Even when you promised... I waited for you to come back to me... But you didn't come.." I reply.

" I am back to you... Now... And don't compare yourself with other girls... You are... The person I..."

I cut him.. and raise my hand in a stop signal and speak," don't you dare say that word now... As If you mean it... I know... you don't mean it anyways."

" Why do you think I don't love you? When I confessed to you.... And even made love with you... To you that night??" He speaks.

" Didn't you feel something special that night? Or was it just me? Who felt butterflies that night.... I wanted to comeback to you there... Itself but I asked you to come with me.... But you didn't come... And I was out of station for the time being and... You too needed some time to think... So I just... Didn't think to disturb while you think about us ..." He tells like a well prepared speech of annual day.

" Why should I call you? When you treated me like a slut.? You just walked out of my life like.. nothing much happened?? And you asking about me going with you? Like I don't have my things to do? You didn't cared to ask what it was like to be left behind,? " I say.

He takes a deep breathe and looks at me..

" Let's pause our fight now... And continue it tomorrow? I swear.... Let's continue tomorrow... And now sleep together.... Please ...?" He says softly melting me...

" I haven't slept for awhile... So please... Help ??" He asks.

I nod... As I myself feel like my head is banging to the wall.

I get fresh and change into PJs..

Then Vishal goes to take a shower I give him his clothes that I borrowed from him that day from the curton upsides.

I lie down on my bed... Looking at the BTS ceiling. I close my eyes....

Vishal comes out of the shower... Water dripping from his hair. He sees Isha and smiles.

He lies down beside Isha... Sees the ceiling and laughs out.. then sees Isha.. soundly sleeping... Moves his hands around her... And pull her into a hug and inhales in her hair and kisses her forehead and closes his eyes.

And they both just go into their own dream world.
