Arnav had his head dropped on the bar counter, aman shook him a bit and asked in surprise," boss why are you drinking? Today is such a happy day "
he lifted his head up and looked at aman with blood shot eyes," what do I do with this happiness when I've no one to share it with."
Aman held his arm and pulled him up," don't say like that. You have your family. You have khushi..." he freed his arm from his hold in rage and screamed," no I don't have her. Do you hear me? I'm all alone."
Aman failed to understand what was wrong between the two of them, here he was saying that khushi wasn't there for him whereas sometime back she appeared so worried for him on the phone, right now he was too drunk to understand anything so aman thought of taking him up to his room.
Aman held his swaying body firmly and forcefully took him to his room, while climbing up the stairs he kept blabbering and pushing aman away but aman didn't let him go till they reached the door step of his room. He opened the door with a bang and then shut it on aman's face. Aman smiled that now both of them would settle their differences on their own.
Arnav saw her sleeping on her back, he dragged his steps to the bed carefully trying to maintain his balance then climbed on to it slowly. He gazed at her sleeping form for a while, his head was spinning because of the effect of alcohol then suddenly he pulled down her blanket, she shook up in shock but kept her eyes closed making him think that she was asleep. He went close to her and sat on his knees then began speaking," am I that bad that now you won't look at me, won't talk to me? When you had to turn away then why the hell did you come close to me?"
