Part 16 They started roving once again. As they were traveling, Sid's phone rang. He stopped the bike and attended the call. Sid: Yes...But I'm on leave today...Okay, I'll come in 5 minutes. Roli was confused hearing the conversation. Sid: Roli, actually I got an emergency in office. I must go and see through it right now. There's no time to leave you home and I can't leave you alone also. So you come with me to office. It won't take more than half an hour. Once I complete the work we'll go home together. Roli nodded and Sid rushed to his office. Rosid reached the commissioner office. Sid got some urgent work, so he asked Roli to sit in his cabin. He asked the cyber cell officer Neha to give Roli company and he rushed for his work. Neha was a girl in mid twenties and was extremely friendly with Sid. As a matter of fact, it didn't go well with Roli. Neha and Roli entered Sid's cabin. It was a cozy, prettily managed area. Roli saw Jhanvi's photo on the desk and smiled. Neha: So you're Siddhant sir's cousin right. He told me. Roli nodded. Neha: I think you both are good friends because usually no girl other than Jhanvi is seen with Sid sir. Especially on his bike. Roli smiled. Neha continued talking. Neha: You know what? Sid sir has got an exceptional character. He's really descent. You know, if somebody else would have come with you like this, we would have definitely doubted. But as for Sid sir there is no need of such lame doubts. Roli was visibly irritated by Neha's talks. Roli's P.O.V I'm at Siddhantji's office and for no reason, I'm angry. The continues blabbering of this girl Neha is getting on my nerves. She's speaking without even trying to know if I'm interested. Sid sir, Sid sir and blah, blah, blah. But I really don't know why on earth I'm this angry. What if she talks about him? Since I have met him I'm going out of my way. I feel attracted to some guy for the first time since I'm in college. This really confuses me when I can't differentiate my feelings for him. My heart starts beating vigorously when he's near me, while my brain scolds me and reminds me that he's my friend's bro and is supposed to be my friend only. What should I do god? Sid: Roli... Roli: Haan, haan Siddhantji Sid: Roli actually. I have more work to be dealt. I don't know when I'll be able to closed them. So it wwill be better if I drop you home and then continue my work. Roli: No need Siddhantji, you proceed with your work. I'll go home by myself. Sid: Yourself? Very good. That too in this condition. No, I can't let you go so. I'll drop you home and order for your lunch and other stuff and then comeback. That's better. But you should take care.Besides Jhanvi told she'll be home by 2 in the afternoon... Roli: Okay. Roli followed Sid just glancing at Neha. Clearly she wasn't happy with her cheesy talks.Sid went to home and dropped Roli there. After ordering lunch for her he left from there. Roli recuperated completely within a few hours. Jhanvi and Amar were back soon and rest of the day passed quite uneventfully. Roli didn't see Sid that day further because he was stuck with large amount of work and returned by 12 at night when Roli was fast asleep. He got fresh and asked about her to Jhanvi casually trying to conceal his concern and on knowing she's fine he retired to bed to have a nice sleep. Part 17 Next Morning Sid is fast asleep under the blanket and Jhanvi went for bathing. Roli who already finished bathing went to kitchen and made breakfast for all of them. She took tea in a cup and headed towards Sid's room. She saw Sid sleeping on the far edge of the bed with one of his legs dangling out of the bed. It was really a cute scene and Roli couldn't stop herself from smiling. She didn't know what to do; whether to call Sid or not. She looked at the clock and saw that the time was 7:30. She thought he'll be late for work and called him. Sid who wasn't used to this literally jumped from the bed making Roli a bit scared. Roli: Tea... Sid: Tea??? Roli: Haan... Tea... Any problem? Sid: Vo no...Actually I was surprised. Your friend never does this. Instead it's my duty to wake the princess up in the morning. But tell me now, why did you enter the kitchen? Roli: Siddhantji, I was feeling bored. So I entered the kitchen and made breakfast. Sid: You made breakfast also? Why did you take trouble? Roli: No, it doesn't trouble. In fact I'm happy. Now please have this tea. Sid drank the tea and of course he loved it very much. Sid: Wow Roli, so you're a good cook. Roli: Thank you. Jhanvi was standing at the door and Sid spotted her. Sid: Jhanvi, come my little flower; see your friend brought me a tea in the morning. Have you ever bothered to do that? Jhanvi: No, but there is a reason behind it. Sid: What reason? Tell me? Jhanvi begun as if she's gonna break some big secret hidden for thousands of years. She brought Roli and Sid close to her. Jhanvi: I'll tell you. Actually I wanted my Bhaiyya to get bed tea for the first time from my bhabhi. She should get all the appreciation. If I'm doing it daily na, then he won't consider my bhabhi. He'll only love the food made by me. Sid: Oh, so that is the reason. And about the food, do you mean the same burnt aloo paratha you made the other day. Jhanvi pouted her lips and Roli laughed hearing this. After coming to this place, the few hours that she spent with these siblings has shown her how loving people can be. Sid really impressed her; really. She felt Jhanvi was really lucky to have a brother like him. Sid: Well, Jhanvi are you going to college today and what about Roli? Jhanvi: This is why I tell that you're a fool Bhaiyya... Sid: What? Am I a fool? Jhanvi: Haan...You even don't know that it's Diwali 2 days later and we're having holidays. Sid: Ohhh...I forgot it...But now we'll have to do the Diwali shopping... I think we'll go now... Jhanvi: But how? You got duty right? Sid: So only you girls get holidays for deewali, not poor officers like us? Jhanvi: Bhaiyya, so you planned everything and playing with me as if yu know nothing. Sid: Or else , Do you think I'm af ool to forget Deewali? Jhanvi: Yeah, you're. Sid: Okay Jhanvi babaji, now please go for dressing as it would take an hour for you to change. Jhanvi: Okay bhaiyya...But you're so bad. Sid laughed at this. He noticed Roli still standing idly. Sid: Roli, what are you seeing? Go change your dress. See we have lot of things to purchase. Roli: But Siddhantji, why should I come? You guys go and do the shopping. I'll stay home. Jhanvi: Are you watchman to say home and take care of the home? Come and change girl or else I'll break this empty head of yours. Roli: But.. Sid: Roli...Do as Jhanvi said. We're going .You got it? Roli hesitantly agreed finally. so this is the last one for the day or probably till saturday...plz bear me...after march I promise, I will definitely give more...luv u all
