The next day at college,Pia had a huge smile on her angelic face.Tomorrow would be Friday and she could ask Abhay for company to the Tantras.She still remembered his innocent kiss last night.There was no doubt that he loved her.In the French class,she saw Abhay sitting quietly on the second seat.She waved at him and sat next to him.She was filled with joy but he appeared cold."Hi Abhay!Its so good to see you today",she said excitedly."Why should it be good for you that I came today?Mind your own business please",he said rudely.Pia got confused and asked,"Abhay?What's the matter?Why are you being rude?"."I don't like talking to anyone",he said."But I'm not just anyone Abhay,I'm Pia the girl whom you have feelings for",she said in lowered volume."Excuse me?Who told you that I have feelings for you?I don't even know you",he said and left his seat to sit beside Kabir.Pia turned numb."If he doesn't like me then why did he kiss me?",she thought.The french proffesor has already started their assignments.She stealthily texted Abhay-i wnt 2 talk 2 u,its imprtnt.Abhay replied-i'm nt intrstd.Pia texted-u hv 2 b,u hv 2 justify smthng.Abhay replied-wt?Pia texted-smthng abt last ni8.aftr college meet me.Abhay replied-ok.Pia was angry,very angry.She rehearsed in her mind so many times about what she's going to say to Abhay.On the other hand,Abhay was wondering if Pia was awake when he took her home and kissed her.Whatever it was,he decided to take every action to hurt Pia so that she won't grow feelings for him.He tried reading Pia's mind but only read some angry frustrated plannings.After college,as planned, Pia waited near Abhay's Mercedes with her arms folded.Abhay came shortly and found her.They sat inside as Abhay pulled up the dark screens and started the car.Both their inner tensions were contrasting to the comfortable cool air inside the car.They went to a beautiful mountain side.Pia sat on the marble beside Abhay and asked,"Abhay don't you like me?At all?"."No,I have no interest in you",he said."Then what happened last night was a dream?",she asked."What are you talking about?",he asked."Didn't you kiss me last night?",she asked."No",he replied."You're lying!You did kiss me!Why?",she glared."Ok fine I admit that yes I kissed you.But that does NOT mean that I love you",he said."That's impossible!You kiss anyone and everyone?No!You can kiss someone only when you have feelings for that girl",she said."Look, I don't believe in love.Girls are only entertainment to me.I have only lust for women 'cause love is meaningless.You girls are brainless beauties.You have nothing except beauty.I only use girls to have pleasure and nothing else",he shouted.Tears dwelled up in Pia's eyes."That means...that means you kissed me just to have fun?",she asked."Yes you dumbo",he said."You're lying again!Last night I saw your face.There wasn't any greed for lust but only care and love on your innocent face",she said."You find this face full of love?",he asked."Yeah",she said."For the last time I'm telling you Pia-I DONT LOVE YOU",he said."I don't believe you",she said."You have to or else...",he started."Or else what Abhay?",she challenged."Or else I'm gonna show you how much love is there between me and you,or should I say pure lust",he said and pinned Pia to a huge tree.He twisted her arms behind her and slammed her forcefully.Pia looked at him shocked and shrieked."Why?Don't we love each other?Let me show you how much I love you",he said and forced his face on her,sucking and teasing her lips with all supernatural strength.His both arms were locking her arms backside and he forced them even more causing her blood to stop flowing in her veins.He went on smooching her lips violently while his mind screamed for him to stop hurting her.Sad tears flowed on her cold colourless cheeks as she subdued under his excessive strength.After a long time,Abhay cooled down and left her shaking body.He got disgusted seeing what he has done.He moved to a tree some feets away as Pia fell down to the ground unconscious."God!I shouldn't have done this",he said and rushed back to her.He held her delicate body on his lap and tried awaken her but to utter dismay.He took her inside his car and turned the air conditioner on.He wiped her tensed face with his shirt and closed the door.Pia sat quietly on the front seat.Her body had lost it's color.She was breathing irregularly."I'm sorry Pia,I couldn't control my anger.You pushed me beyond limits",he said and stroked her face.He took out a Bisleri and sprinkled water on her.She slowly came back to sense and Abhay started driving.She stared outside while crying softly.Abhay wanted to comfort her but then held back.When they reached the Jaiswal Mahal,Pia quietly entered her house.Her dad smiled at Abhay and said,"Thanks son!".Abhay smiled back and left."I have to keep you away by some other way.I cant hurt you like this.Forgive me Pia,all this is for your welfare.
