Chapter 2Key Words :
Normal - Present
Bold - Flash BackItalic - Flash Back in Flash Back Soon we reached the place. I stop the car and looked at Riya. I moved forward towards her and placed my one hand on her cheeks and caressed it by the pad of my thumb. I saw her eyes opening and looking at me with pain, hurt, guilt and the most important love.
Suddenly she flinched back from my touch. Though it hurt me this behavior of her but I know somewhere she was hurting herself too. I knew this was not timing for the old hurtful memories, but I know one more thing too if I wait anymore I might lose the chance forever. C'mon after all it had been freaking 2 year of us staying apart, of us hurting each, of us knowing the reason still not solving it, of us knowing were are love one stay still not contacting and of us being us.
"Arjun why the hells have you brought me over here?" Her voice brought me back from my thought. I was happy that she called me Arjun, I had being waiting for this day from past 2 year and here it is. Hearing her call me Arjun was the most blissful moment for me. I have always left that my name when rolling out of her tongue sounds so beautiful, "Arjun I want to go to my hotel back and its either you taking me or me going on my own" I heard Riya warning me which to be honest made me chuckle.
C'mon don't take me wrong I mean her warning can be bad, but for now that gorgeous face of hers warning me that to not without a glare and her eyes well I guess they are betraying her coz they were for sure saying some other story.
"Sweets, but I guess your eyes are saying completely differen't things" I smirked and continued, "I mean if we consider them I can see them practically begging me not to let you go away from me"
"Arjun, still same huh? No change I see" Riya said attitude lace in her every word, "Gosh I can't believe you still think that all are heads over heels for you huh? But I guess you must have not forgotten that day? Or have you?" she said with a smirks.
"Oh baby, I don't know about others but m damn sure you are heads over heels for me" I said with smirk and little bit of cockiness which I know she hates.
"Cocky much? Aren't we?" She said with a irritation in her tone visible clearly.
"Riya?" I said in a stern yet serious voice which I guess, she took it coz she looked away from me. I heard her exhale a long breath "Arjun just drop me at my hotel please" She was almost begging but this time as if decided earlier it's now or never.
"No Riya" I said and looked at her I saw her sigh in defeat
"Arjun there is nothing to talk. I fu*cking used you" She said a voice full of hurt, "You should be angry on me not like this" She mutter to herself if I would have been not so closed to her I would have missed that part.
I just smiled at her way and came more close to her she was looking down. I cupped her face at made her look up at me but she kept her eyes on anything but me. I smiled again and said, "Sure Ri, you are right I should be angry on you for using me. If I never knew the truth I would have been angry but I know the truth so how can I be angry?"
She looked at me eyes with utter shocked return on her face, "You know?" She whispered in shock
"Yeah baby I knew the same day when you said it to me" I said pulling her more closed if that is possible.
"How?" was all she could manage to say.
I took a deep breath and picked her up and made her sit on car bonnet and I too settle myself besides her holding her hand tightly in mine.
"Ri you remember that day?" I asked she looked hurt she took a glance of the house and then slowly looked at me and nodded, I gave a quick squeeze to her hand and looked at the front
*Flash Back*
That day,
I was finally going to propose Riya, I have known Riya from my college days she was and is my best friend. She had always help me from the time to submit projects in college to the time will proposing Roshni to the time helping me out of the sorrow from Roshni's death till the time from handling my vulnerable self after killing Sikander and till making him again a human being from a dead soul.
I went into our house, well don't take it in a wrong sense we both don't stay together I stay in a rented apartment and Riya stay with her dad. This house is mine and Riya's favorite place as we took this with our money which we gain through our hard work as soon as we left the college. Before I left for my IPS training.
Riya Mukherjee, Research specialist and encounter specialist of CBI Mumbai, My strength, My best friend with whom I'm in love. Yeah I'm in love with her. And today I'm going to make it official.
I went inside and saw her standing near window her back facing me. "Riya" I said lovingly. She turned around and looked at me I saw her face turned in confusion looking at the red roses in my hands. She raised her perfect shaped eyebrow at me.
"Riya umm Ri I want to show I mean tell you something" I said and walked closed to her I kept the roses on the side table beside her and took her both hands in my hands and took a deep breath
"Riya will you be my girlfriend for forever and ever?" I asked her nervousness full in me; heck I can't believe I can even be nervous well this girl have tendency to bring such emotion which I never know exits in me.
Suddenly I heard her laugh at me and pulled her hands from my hold and started clapping at me still laughing. I looked at her in confusion as I didn't ever expect this reaction from her.
"Really Arjun Suryakant Rawthe really? Did you really thought that I will ever like you or be your girlfriend?" She laughed and walked away from me and continued, "Arjun - Arjun I never thought you to be so nave my best friend".
"Ri, what the hell are you talking?" I said still confused at her talks.
"Arjun I never loved or even liked you. I only used you for my popularity from the college days. You were famous in college I used you to become famous just like you. You were famous in the field and I again used you in the field to gain popularity and respect, and you thought that I might like you? Seriously Arjun?" She said and laughed, "God Arjun you are damn nave boy"
"Riya, this must not be a fu*king joke of yours" I said anger taking quite toll on me.
"It's not a joke ACP it's the truth, you are nothing to me but a boy to gain popularity and nothing else" She said in a hard voice, "Goodbye Arjun Suryakant Rawthe I don't need you now, goodbye" She continued and left the house leaving me alone with my heart broken self and to heel myself with help of no one but me.
I threw the flowers, I fell on my knees. I can't believe her words. I have never seen or heard such words from her mouth. This was not my Riya with who I was in love with. My Riya was sweet, thinking about others first before herself but she is telling that, that girl don't even exits? That it was all but a big fu*cking lie?
Why Riya why did you do that? I cried and cried over her words haunting me playing again and again in my ears. I got up and wiped my eyes and walked towards the door.
No Riya you cant just leave by using me, you have to answer me every single thing. Riya Mukherjee I'm coming to get my answers. I took my car keys and went towards my car and started to drove the way towards Riya's house.
