Care for him?

Saaransh's eyes were looking past Shanaya who was sitting in front of him. He was physically present there but, his mind was still in Vihaan's room, the words 'She was mine', 'you stole her' ranging inside his mind.

He heard Shanaya's worried voice from a distance" Saaransh, what is it? Tell me what happened?"

But, he doubts he would be able to tell her.

Shifting his eyes on her, Saaransh looked at her looking at him with full attention and concern in her eyes.

"Worried for Vihaan or me," he thought to himself and, he knew the answer well.

He closed his eyes once the words" We kissed for bloody sake!" rang in his mind.

God! how could they hide it.

He had lost the battle even before going in the battlefield.

His mind played the scene when he had come out of Vihaan's room and had found Shanaya waiting for him at a distance.

He could see the horror in her eyes when she had noticed the drops of blood stuck on his shirt's cuff.
