ArHI FF: Teenage Love#2-Chap 18 Upd!

"Rai...zada... Rai... Ar...nav" she muttered in a choky voice breathlessly the endless stream of saline water marking tear tracks on her slightly plumpish red cheeks blowing them up enormously. As she held on to her sleet black N5 on her ear, the other hand around her mother, she shivered continuously seeing her mother seethe in pain, while she waited for his voice to reach her ears.


The smile from his face vanished instantly, hearing her stifled voice, the hard works he putting to suppress her tears evident in her voice. His expression hardened, and all hsi features tesned as he continues to hear her sniff from the other side, his voice magically hanging somewhere in his voice box.


"Gupta, what happened? Why are you crying?" he asked finally having found his voice, which was filled with panic, him waiting for her to answer patiently while she processed thoughts to string up a sentence.


"Can..I..plea...se talk to Anita..Aunty?" she said in a constricted voice, for a moment having him confused into deciphering what she had said when he finally got the sound of her words clear.

"Gosh Chun! You took forever to pick up the phone! I told you to call me up when you reached home, you are at home right? (slapping his forehead) Silly of me to ask! Ofcourse you are at home *pause* listen remember you asked me yesterday, what happened when you got drunk? (taking a long disturbing pause) you and Arnav danced on Tu Mera Hero" Vivek chirped happily, slowing down at the last phrase he had uttered, fixing the bluetooth on his ear which had gotten slightly dislocated as he brushed his hair, forming nice spikes of them, smiling contentedly at his reflection in the mirror. Slowly the smile vanished replaced with a frown on his face the wait of her answering back since the last minute not ending. What was taking her so long to react?, he thought to himself busily, twisting his eye in a thoughtful expression.


"Chun are you there? You didn't lose your voice hearing about the dance did you?" he said light heartedly getting more and more confused at not having a rude or snide remarked thrown his way, since he gotten use to of it by now, because whenever he pulled her leg with any of his comical jokes, it was either a rude remark or a threat to kill him that she would subject him to.


The next words that he heard, almost caused the bluetooth to slip from his ear his eyes dilating to an extent where they were on the verge of blasting and letting out the aqueous humor contained in it. The hair brush in his hand dropped on the floor with a loud thud colliding with the vinyl-ed floor underneath him, as the voice from the other end buzzed in his ear.


"This is Arnav speaking"

"Chun? Chun?" Vivek entered the Gupta house feeling increasingly worried seeing the front door wide open, no sign of Khushi anywhere in the living room.


In the room she felt as if she heard the familiar faint call of her best friend, she turned around and walked out from the room, only to find Vivek utterly worried standing on the front door roaming his eyes here and there in search of her. Upon seeing him, she coudnt control herself, the overwhelming rush of adrenaline consuming her as she made a sprint towards Vivek directly, throwing her arms around his neck and hugging him tightly crying away bitterly, not having noticed the silent spectator who was seeing the scene from the corner of his eye.


Arnav looked as she hugged a confused Vivek, who was trying to calm her down, remembering the way she had earlier hugged him, and that moment was the one when truth dawned up on him, this was different, she didn't need a 'You can share' assurance to pour her out to Vivek, she didn't need to hesitate even a moment with him around, and that is what, Arnav realized made the two of them different, because he was just not the same to her as him.

"Aakash stop goofing around, and hurry up the note said 'soon' its 4:00 in the afternoon right now, something is wrong" Anjali called out to Aakash who was shuffling through his wardrobe to find a fresh pair of clothes when she impatiently waited at the doorstep for him to come out.


"We are not going to a ball and there are no slippers being dropped on steps by Payal! Stop dressing up and come one out!" she shouted out loud again, going frenzy minute by minute getting irritated with Aakash's care free attitude who only a second later slammed opened the door patting his ruffled hair grumbling something non audible under his breathe most probably curses directed at Anjali.


"Now are you going to stand here like Statue Of Liberty or should we wait until your rock breaks?" Aakash lashed out at her rudely, grabbing her hand in one go and yanking her out of the house, locking the door with the free one and slipping the key back into the pockets of his Bermudas.


*******************************************


"Raizada, I need you to do something for me" she said earnestly, that hope of instant understanding flashing in her voice, her eyes locked with his communicating in the language that did not require words.


"Keep going" he told her, not letting that eye lock break as he tried to see through the mist i her eyes, those blood red corners in them making his fidget a bit.


"I want you to tell Vivek everything" she said her voice on the verge of cracking but she kept it steady for the sake of communication, the expression on his face darkening and he suddenly took four steps backwards from her.
