Part 21
Kripa just stood there looking at him…not wanting to move her gaze from him, as if he were to disappear if she did. Oh how she wanted to just run into his arms and stay there forever, but she couldn't her body had completely shutdown on seeing him, oh no she though as she felt her eyes watering up…she just couldn't help it…she was standing in front oh him…her love...angad, what could have got better than this…to see your love standing in front of you.
"Armaan I was thinking come by tomorrow, so we can catch up and, Aa- well I don't know I mean I have to get back to see aunty …who is in the hospital, A- right …well see there's a even better reason for you to come over tomorrow before you leave, kripa frowned …what was all this…was he not coming back with them …Aa- alright I guess so, A- cool, well later then...lets go neeve he said and turned around to not only walk off but to leave kripa standing there hurt, shocked…no recognition of her presence …it broke her heart to think he thought the same about her just before he had left… was she nothing to him, why didn't he care that she wasn't there, why wasn't he happy. As if Armaan understood what was running through the mind he stopped angad by asking him something, Aa- can kripa come along. Angad stopped and turned around quickly only to break Kripa's heart in two pieces by sending another shock…A- who is kripa? Whatever, yeh sure bring your friend along, anyway I'll see you tomorrow and with that he left the room.
Armaan shook his head, maybe he had made a big mistake by coming here, he looked up to see kripa …to see tears dropping from her beautiful eyes down her cheeks like a flowing river. He made his way to her, to comfort her but she shook her head and moved back slowly till she turned around and ran out of the room …Aa- KRIPA…but there was no chance of stopping her…
Armaan opened the door praying she was inside and thanked god when he saw her petite figure on the bed sobbing. Sighing he closed the door and walked over to her bed, sitting down softly. " kripa" he whispered but he heard nothing apart from her sobs … he couldn't take it anymore , when he grabbed her hand and pulled her up , only to see her red puffy eyes. He shook his head looking at her while she just sat there letting her tears flow…what was the need to wipe them when the pain still resided within her …an endless pain. She looked at Armaan when he reached over to wipe her tears, kripa pushed his hand away when he frowned in response saying, Aa- now don't you dare give me attitude kripa…gosh you know how worried I was when you just ran out of the club like that…I had no clue where you went and then I come here to find you on the bed crying your eyes out…you know how depressing that is to see, especially seeing tears in your eyes… I hate seeing tears in a girl's eyes so please wipe them before I cry myself he asked while she smiled slightly wiping her eyes but failed a few seconds later as she felt her eyes tearing up again. Armaan sighed and held his arms out, kripa flung her arms around him and broke down crying, complaining to him while he sat there trying to comfort her…
"kripa I want to ask you something" Armaan asked her, K- what, Aa- how did you feel when you met angad… how did you feel when he didn't even recognize him, K- Armaan do you know how happy I was to see the guy I love standing in front of him but at the same time it's so sad to think he is so close yet so far…too far that I can't even reach out
for him, he stood there and all I could do was just stand there and watch the way he broke my heart again …. It's so funny how I mean nothing to him yet he practically means the world for him… it hurts to think there I was thinking about him nearly 24/7 while he asks "who is kripa?" Aa- kripa do you love him?, K- what kind of question is that…you're talking about the guy I dream about, I think about, the guy I'm dying to be with , Aa- okay sorry I know stupid question, K- no I'm sorry I shouldn't get angry at you … its just I don't know anymore, I don't know what to do…to just give up …Aa- NO listen to me , you want angad then you will get angad , K- what do mean Armaan, this isn't some game we're playing where angad is the prize and if it was I've already lost, Aa- no you haven't , in fact we haven't even started playing the game. Kripa just looked at him confused…Aa- kripa I've changed my mind…we will be staying back here for a couple of weeks and to work on our mission, K- and what is that , Aa- to bring ANGAD KHANNA from cloud nine and back to reality. K- But how can we… I mean aunty and all, Aa- you leave that to me and concentrate on being strong in front of him, K- Armaan I don't know… I don't think it will work...it's too hard to be strong in front of him, Aa- I know but you have to just suck all the pain within you… I know one should never do that…but just for some time, trust me, K- that's the problem I can't…Aa-WHAT!, K- just joking she pinching his nose, Aa-sure , sure I see how it is he said and turned around pretending to be mad, when she grabbed a hold of his hand …stopping him. She got off the bed and hugged him tightly…K- thank you Armaan for being here for me…you truly are a great friend indeed, thank you, Aa- anything for a beautiful girl like you he said winking at her, K-Armaan you and your flirting , Aa- oh please you said I was flirting with you, K- oh really is that so… then that means its normal for you to call every girl beautiful and not consider it flirting with them , Aa- well yeh it's a compliment and the truth is every girl is pretty in their own way… now come on let's go too sleep, I'm so tired he said falling onto the bed on the other side of the room. Kripa shook her head and got into bed…K- Goodnight Armaan but smiled and turned to the other side when she heard him snoring softly.
Angad sat on the couch drinking, lost in his thoughts, questions pondering in his head … why was kripa here , where was Prithivi , why wasn't she with him, how did she no Armaan ...his head was hurting. Shaking his head he put his drink down and headed for the bedroom thinking, " whatever she's doing…I don't care , nor do I care for her , she's nothing …for all I know she's dead for me …I hate her , that two face cunning woman" he thought dropping onto his bed……. Only he didn't know he did care for her, she wasn't dead but resided in his heart…but he off course he didn't know ……
"Are you ready kripa" Armaan asked kripa as they stood in front of Angad's place , kripa took a deep breath ad nodded a yes, Aa- okay and our mission begins he said pressing the door bell.
Kripa's stomach did a flip when she saw angad in a black tee-shirt with jeans…it seemed he had just came out of the shower, composing her self she reminded herself…she had to be strong. Aa- hey bro, A- hey glad you came by he said and then looked at kripa who stood there wearing a black skirt and red tank top. Kripa put her hand out and shocked him …K- hi …I'm kripa …the girl you asked Armaan about , well it's nice to finally meet you …Armaan's told me a lot of things about you she said looking straight into his eyes. Ouch, it had really hurt her to say that but he wanted to be strangers. Kripa took her hand back when she realized he wasn't going to shake it, Aa- are you going to let us come in, A- well actually I was thinking of taking you to the resort clubhouse… for some lunch, Aa- sounds good …what do you think kripa, Kripa shrug her shoulders…K- I'll go anywhere you go, Aa- okay then lets go. A- Cool let me get my jacket and keys and then we can go….
Aa- nice resort, A- yup its the best, come on lets go he said when a bunch of girls came running over to him asking him for and autograph and all, angad of course was delighted to give his autograph to a bunch of beautiful girls. Kripa on the other hand watched him smile and flirt with them…she turned her face…her eyes were going tear up any second, she had to stop when Armaan lifted her face and frowned at her warning her to be strong or else, she slightly smiled and hugged him…she really needed one, it wasn't as easy as she thought it would be to be rude and mean to him like he was to her… it hurt her. Armaan glanced up at angad, to see him flirt with his fans when he thought of something and grinned……
