I stood at the parking lot with my bag near the car, he walked up to me and handed me over something wrapped in a newspaper, I frowned then slowly unwrapped the newspaper, my lips stretched in a smile on seeing some green glass bangles. I looked at him in surprise, my smallest of things didn't go unnoticed by him. I pushed the bangles through my empty wrist carefully, the cut had healed up by now. I parted my lips and gathered all the courage I could to thank him for everything that he had done for me so far but before a word slipped out of my mouth I heard him call out to Aakash and say," drive khushi carefully to the hostel."

My eyelids dropped to hide the disappointment I was feeling on hearing that he had asked Aakash to drop me to the hostel. But payal asked him instead of me," aren't you going with khushi?" he slipped his hands in his pockets and replied casually," I have more important things to handle."

Yes, he was right, he was a busy man and didn't have the time to drop me off, moreover even if he had come there he wouldn't have stayed with me. He would have left after dropping me off. It was my battle and I would have to fight it alone.

Sitting in the car my eyes lingered on his face till Aakash drove me off. Why did I feel bad? I supposed I was expecting a little too much from him.
