Varun's Point Of View

°°°

I was sitting in my room and looking straight into the mirror opposite to me. Tomorrow I will have to fight Siddharth Goenka and I will have to defeat him. I drew in a sharp breath when there was a knock at the door. I immediately walked up and opened it to find Naira.

"What?", I asked rather harshly.

"Varun, I think speaking in a little better tone will not hurt you. Will it?", She said, looking a little offended.

"Fine. Please come in Miss. Naira The Great.", I said as I moved to a side and ushered her into my room.

She broke into laughter.

"You and your ways. Really.", She said as she walked into my room.

"What brings you here, my Lady?", I said pretending to behave like a servant.

"Come on now! Stop it!", She said as she continued laughing.

"Fine. What brings you here?", I said with a smile.

"Nothing much. Just wanted to meet you.", She said with a wink.

"Ah! I see. You must be supporting Sid tomorrow, isn't it?", I asked as her smirk faded.

"And why do you think so?"

"Because most girls would do that, won't they?", I asked genuinely as she suddenly looked down.

"Now, that is what you think Varun. Sid is fine but when it comes to choosing between you and him it will always be you.", She said as she looked up at me confidently.

Suddenly, the whole scene started to become intense.

It seemed like she wanted to say something.

"Why is it so?", I asked as she said edging closer to me,

"Because I guess I have fallen for you."

Siddharth's Point Of View

°°°

"What are you doing here?", I asked with a raised brow.

"I thought I should meet you once.", She said quietly.

"And why? I thought you hated me more than anything.", I said irritably. Indeed she was the reason I was out of my house.

She and her beloved boyfriend, Varun Khaiten.

"Yes. To be very honest I still not like you, but I don't want you to be out of your house because of me.", She stated as I raised a brow.

"I don't need your help, in case you are talking about that.", I said sharply.

"I doubt the fact that you'd like to be out of your house this late.", She said logically.

"I have Gaurav.", I said.

"His father is your dad's best friend. Aditi told me that. You'll not be allowed in his house.", She said looking at me intensely.

"Fine then. What do you want?!", I said getting irritated.

"I'm taking you to my house."

"So that you can poison me and kill me, is it?", I said harshly.

"I would have done that with no regrets, but then unfortunately because of that video I have suddenly become your girlfriend. I would not want to kill you and get myself into trouble.", She said sternly.

"Come on, now. My cab is waiting.", Saying so she immediately pulled me by my arm towards her car. I merely stared at her as I walked.

I suddenly realised in the dim light of the street lights how beautiful she was.

The cascading brown hair, the hazel eyes and that enchanting smile.

We reached the cab soon.

"Come on get in.", She said as I got onto the Maruti Suzuki Dzire.

"Sir, you have the location I guess..", she said as the driver nodded.

Aisha got onto the cab and sat beside me.

"Why are you doing all this for me?", I asked her as she looked at me for a while.

"Because I don't want you to be in trouble."

"And why so? You hate me, don't you?", I asked as she looked in my eye and said,

"I really hate you but then, I don't want anyone to be in a problem because of me. All this had begun with me and must end with me.", She said as she sat back and started looking out of the car window.

I merely stared at her. The way she looked out of that window.

No, this was not the first time I looked at someone that way.

But even this made me feel the same old way.

"You have a lot of secrets, don't you?", She asked, not looking at me.

"A lot.", I replied as I finally looked away, blinking away my tears.
