Chapter 19 : emotional
Naina 's pov
I was so tired of all my friends teasing me by taking ahaan 's name in every convo
"yaar ab bas karo i am tired of you all, jaa rahi hoon mai baahar ", I said and came out of the room
" Aree sun tho " , priya was shouting but i came out quickly by shutting the door loudly
I came out in garden area , I thought of calling my mom, I dialed her number , she picked up the call quickly like always
"hello mumma kaise ho aap? ", I said
" mai theek hoon beta tum kaisi ho, bahut yaad aa rhi hai teri, ghar suna suna ho gaya hai", she said
"mai theek hoon , I miss you all so much, bhaiya so gaye kya? aur papa , nani nana, dada, dadi Sab kaise hai? " I asked
"sab theek hai bahut miss karte hai, tere bhai tho aj kal kaam mai bahut busy hai, dekhna abhi tak nahi aaya, tere dad bhi nahi aaye abhi tak ", she said
" ok mumma apna khayaal rakhna i will talk to you tomorrow ", I said
" naina teri tabiyat theek tho haina? tablets lena mat bhoolna aur sugar level maintain rakhna ", she said
" yes mumma i know dont worry ", I said
" good night mumma I love you,sab ko bolna ki I miss them bahut saara ", I said
" zarur bolugi, good night mera baccha love you ", she said, I ended the call and turned to go inside I saw ahaan sitting on a bench and smoking
I wasn't shocked that he was smoking, I kinda expected this from him as he gives more like a bad boy vibe , I am not saying that smoking makes anyone a bad person, it's their choice if they want to risk their life
ahaan tum itni raat ko yahaan kya kar rahe ho " I asked
"wo neend nahi aa rahi thi tho " , I cut him off and asked "tum ciggarette peete ho? "
" ab tum ye mat kehna ki ye peene se kuch ho jaayega and all that " he replied, I rolled my eyes
"mai kyu kahun, packet pe wese bhi sab likha hota hai, it's your wish if you want to die early " I said sarcastically
"damn naina you are so harsh ", he Replied keeping his hand on his heart dramatically, I couldn't stop smiling
"serves you right,good night " , I replied and was about to leave
"thodi der baithugi please", he said
I looked at him, he looked a bit sad , I went towards him and sat beside him
he wasn't in his usual self today, he was sitting completely silent, looking at the ground, the silence between us was comfortable but I felt that something was wrong with him , I felt like he is not the ahaan I know
"are you okay? " I asked , he looked at me , I noticed few tear drops in his eyes I was shocked
"can I hug you? ", he asked
I looked at him in shock, I heard what he said but I didn't know how to react, he looked so Vulnerable
" huh? " I asked
please", he said , tear drops fell from his eyes which made me feel bad for him
I moved my hand towards his face and then eyes , I wiped his tears away
"please " he said again, I didn't know what happened to him, I was shocked to see this ahaan in front of me
I moved closer, he held my waist and pulled me closer, he wrapped his hand around me and hugged me lightly, I was numb to even react, I slowly wrapped my arms around his shoulder
I didn't know how to console, I felt like he was crying, my heart broke to see him in this state, I didn't know whether I should ask him or not, because we aren't best friends yet, and I was sure he wouldn't share anything with me
he kept hugging almost placing his head on my neck, making my heart beat faster, I couldn't breathe because of the proximity, his chin was touching my neck, he moved his face and his lips touched my neck which gave goosebumps all over my body , I felt like I would die because of shortage of air
"ahaan ", I said and he immediately broke the hug , I moved away quickly
" I am sorry wo mai I didn't realize I am really sorry I didn't mean to hurt you ", he kept apologizing I was so surprised to even reply or talk, it was the most intimate moment for me, I was lost
I got up and was about to leave when ahaan held my hand and pulled me towards him
" look at me " , he said
I looked at him, our eyes met
"I am sorry ", he apologized again
" it's ok ", I replied while shuttering
" do you feel something when I touch you ", he asked and I looked at him in surprise and shock
" bolo naina how do you feel? " he asked
" leave me " I replied by breaking his eye contact with me which was making me crazy
"I am asking you something?", he said
" please leave me", I said
"why do you make me feel unattractive ", he said
" huh? " I asked because I didn't understand what he meant
"nothing ", he said and freed me from his grip
He kept staring at me making my heart beat more faster and faster, I froze in same place for few seconds
" I definitely have an affect on you " he said
I stared at him blankly not understanding what he meant
"what? " I asked
"you are too dumb to understand I think ", he said making me angry now
" what do you mean by dumb? , are you calling me dumb on my face? " I said gritting my teeth in anger
He laughed "you are so cute, thank you "
"now why are you thanking me ", I said as I was so annoyed with his talks, I could hardly understand what he means most of the time
" thank you for making me smile, and thank you for letting me hug you " , he said which made me blush
"I was just being kind to you because you are jijaji 's friend ", I said avoiding his gaze as he was still staring at me
" can you not tell about what ever happened here? I mean please don't tell anyone that i "
"that you were crying? " I interrupted as he was struggling to complete the sentence
"I wasn't crying, I was just being emotional", he replied looking a bit embarrassed
" there is nothing wrong if people cry too, men can cry, it's not always necessary to be strong ", I said
He looked at me in surprise and smiled
" don't worry I won't tell anything to anyone ", I said
" thank you ", he said
" good night ", I replied
" good night, sweet dreams ", he responded I quickly walked away
