"Vihaan??" I called out, he turned around and shock was clearly written on his face, ofcourse he was not expecting me to come here at this hour and witness this.
"Aap??" He asked, I looked around and saw a kid standing behind him and looking scared and infront of him two girl and a boy as same height of him but a little more bulky.
"What's happening here??" I asked, coming straight to the point and not beating around the bush
"Nothing" he shook his head and averted his gaze from me.
"Vihaan" I said with my voice stern,
"Aap apne aap bataiye mujhe otherwise I am calling Abhi Bhai and Viraaj" I said in a voice that leave no room for an argument.
"Nooo!!! Don't call Bhai" fear covered his face,
"Then tell me" I said
"Heyy girl-" I stepped back when one of the girl came towards me with her hand stretched towards me but before her hand could touch me it was grabbed by another hand.
"Stay back" Siya glared at the girl, who stepped back at ones probably knew that it was futile to fight or argue with her.
"They were trying to make this kid drink alcohol and when I stopped them they were arguing with me" he glared at them, just like his brother would do.
"Where are your guards??" I asked because Viraaj didn't let anyone in his family leave without guards or security with them.
"Ehh, I sneaked out" he rubbed his nape and told me with sly grin on his face.
"See this little guy can't even talk with us without these two minions by his side" that boy laughed and everyone joined him
I closed my eyes in frustration before walking towards him. He was almost an inch taller than me but with my heels he was a little smaller then me.
"One word against my brother and you will see what I will do to you" I glared at him. He faked gasped and laughed before saying
"What will you do little girl" he mocked me.
"Me??" I smiled and kicked him where his sun won't rise
"This" and stepped on his foot with my pencil heel. He kneeled on the ground near my feet. Bloody Sand.
Siya laughed at his expression and I also couldn't myself from chuckling. I walked back and stood beside them. I looked at vihaan and saw him trying to hide his laugh.
"Silly boy" I chuckled, then turned towards the kid who was holding Vihaan's shirt.
"Heyy, it's okay. No need to be scared. You can go, hmm. Take care" it was like that kid was waiting for someone to say and he vanished so fast as soon I finished my sentence.
"Now what are you waiting for. Keep moving and mind your own business. " Siya glared at the crowd and it also vanished slowly.
"And you, machis ki teeli aur unki dibbi. Bhago yaha se" siya said referring to those three and turned around .
"Hey, do you know who we are??" One of the girls said
"Not someone important" I smiled at them
"Hey you bitch-" I yelped with surprise when that boy's
Words were cut short because my so very sweet best friend just punched his face. We all heard a crunch voice indicating that she just broke his nose. He just stood on his feet after the torture I did on him.
"Siya" I grabbed her hand before pulling her towards me.
"You better watch out your words, boy" she pointed her finger at him.
"You-" he moved forward and was about to garb her but before he could Vihaan punched his face and knocked him down by kicking his knee.
"Vihaan" I cupped my mouth in surprise and grabbed his hand before pulling him beside me.
"Why did you do that??" I glared at him who simply shrugged.
"I was waiting to do this since they started arguing with me" he smirked.
"What the hell is wrong with you??? I won't leave you" one of the girls said and walked towards siya who was looking at her with bored expression.
"Not if we never gave you a chance" I swinged my purse and hit her face with it, she feels on the ground.
"Ayee" I heard siya and vihaan saying and they pulled me back.
I looked at them who were looking at me with narrowed eyes
"What?? I just helped you" I shrugged.
"Yeah yeah, thankyou so much ma'am" siya mocked me.
"What's happening here??" We all turned towards the source of voice and saw a bouncer of the club.
"Nothing, just exercising our wrists" I said and showed him my wrist by rotating it around.
He looked behind us and gasped "sir!!" when he saw those three cartoons with broken face or nose. He walked towards us with a glare and forwarded his hand in Vihaan's direction.
"What did you do to my sir??" He asked while walking towards vihaan
"Stop" I stood infront of vihaan and glared at him, his hand stopped in mid.
"Stay back" Siya said and stood infront of us. Bouncer glared at us but didn't stepped back
" Do you know who they are??" He asked
"Yeah, some cartoons" Vihaan peeked his head from behind us and winked at him, me and siya couldn't control our laugh at this.
"You better save yourself boy from me" he warned and moved in Vihaan's direction. I looked at siya and she was already looking at me. I nodded my head and she smirked.
"Hey saand" she called out,he voice stern and firm. That bouncer turned to look at herqith a scowl on his face. Siya smiled sweetly at him before punching his face. He stumbled back, She kicked him in his knees and he kneeled infront of her, she grabbed his face and banged it against her knee. That man fainted and and fell on the ground.
"Woww" Vihaan exclaimed, clearly amused by her fighting skills and that's the least you expect from a boxing champion. I face palmed myself because This was not what I thought when I nodded towards her. I thought she will distract him but she did this. Still I watched in awe as she effortlessly took down the bouncer, her movements fluid and precise.
Her punch was fast and powerful, and her kicks were executed with such accuracy that it was clear she knew what she was doing.
As the man fell to the ground, Siya looked up at me with a smirk, her eyes sparkling with win.
"Pgala ladki" I muttered under my breath.
We three looked at each other when we heard other footsteps behind us, we turned around and saw many men surrounding us.
"Ab kya kare??" I asked, scared.
"Ab" siya trailed of, she grabbed my hand and Vihaan's hand "bhago" she screamed and we all ran towards her car.
"Betho" she said and hurriedly started the car when she saw that those men were coming behind us.
She drove off and I let out a sigh of relief, grateful to be away from that dangerous situation.
I turned to look at Siya, and our eyes met. For a brief moment, silence hung between us before suddenly, we both burst into laughter.
"Ohh Godd" I shook my head and looked at vihaan who was looking us with a smile.
"Aur champ, kaisa laga??" Siya asked, looking at vihaan from the front mirror.
"It was fun" he shrugged with a smile. I shook my head and turned towards him as he was sitting on the back seat.
"Vihaan meet siya, my bestfriend and siya this is vihaan" I introduced them with each other. She forwarded her first in Vihaan's direction for him to to d first bump and he did.
"Nice to meet you" he tried of not knowing what to call her.
"Siya, you can call me by my name " she smiled at him
"Nice to meet you, siya" he smiled and looked at me. I smiled at him and turned on the radio.
"Let's have some fun" I said while choosing which song to play.
"Kudiyo ka nasha pyaare sabse nasheela hai
Jise dekho yahan woh husn ki baarish me geela hai"
as the lyrics started me and siya started to sing this song in full mood.
"Ishak ke naam pe karte sabhi ab raas-leela hai
Main karoon toh saala Character Dheela hai
Ho.. main karoon toh saala Character Dheela hai" after sometime Vihaan also joined us and we all started to sing this song with our full volume.
"Ladko ka nasha pyare nasha sab se nasheela hai
Jise dekho yahan woh husn ki baarish me geela hai
Ishak ke naam par karte sabhi ab raas leela hai
Main karoon toh saala Character Dheela hai
Ho.. main karoon toh saala Character Dheela hai"
I swayed my body in full sync with its beats. She stopped the car and turned off the radio. Me and vihaan looked at her with confused expression.
She pointed towards a cafe, our favourite cafe. We used to come here twice a week and sometimes thrice.
It used to be our safe and secret place. Not many people knew about this one, it's a small cafe with flowers all around its entrance and fabulous food.
I smiled wide in her direction and turned to look at vihaan who was already looking at us. I asked him with a raise in my eyebrow and he nodded with a smile.
"Let's go" we all got off the car before entering in the cafe. I took adeep breath as we entered inside, nostalgia filling my mind.
Then we all sat and orders our favourite, we also told Vihaan what is best here but sadly the owner that knew us passed away as she was old enough.
After filling out tummies we drove towards Shekhawat villa as it was late and vihaan was out for a long time without any security.
"Enjoyed??" I asked to Vihaan, he looked at me and smiled before nodding his head. I think it will take time for him to be himself with me but it's okay, I can wait.
"We reached" siya said and parked our car by the entrance. Vihaan nodded at the guard and the gate opened the door. Its my first time seeing Shekhawat villa.
My eyes widened in awe as I gazed at the Shekhawat Villa, a magnificent and sprawling mansion that was unlike anything I had ever seen before. The grandeur and luxury of the mansion were truly unparalleled, and its sheer size was truly breathtaking.
I felt a sense of awe wash over me as I took in the splendid sight before me. The Shekhawat Villa was not just a mansion; it was a masterpiece of architecture and design, a true testament to the wealth and power of the Shekhawat family.
The building stood imposingly, its towering structure and intricate details a testament to its exquisite construction. The manicured gardens and sparkling fountains surrounding the villa added to its allure, creating an aura of luxury and refinement.
I could only imagine what the inside of the villa looked like.
"Bhai??" Vihaan scared voice broke my trance and looked infront where he was looking and took a deep breath when I saw Viraaj and Abhi Bhai standing infront of us and both of their hands in their pockets.
"I am gone now" Vihaan whispered clearly scared because who won't when they both were eglaring at our car, it was a wonder that the car didn't exploded and shredded into tiny pieces.
"Heyy, it's okay. Mein hoon na. Relax, hmm" I looked at him with relaxing smile. And I could tell that this somehow helped him, he nodded dhus head and took a deep breath.
"I will sit here only, you go" siya said and nodded in my direction. I nodded and got off the car with vihaan but not before calming myself.
"Chalo" I said and walked towards them with Vihaan on my trail. We both stood infront of them and I looked at Abhi Bhai, clearly trying to avoid Viraaj. After our engagement night I was seeing him for the first time. He was still looking so beautiful with messy hairs and still in his office attire. His tie was now loosened and hund lazily around his neck with his blazer hung on his hand instead of his body. And these all things I noticed wre when I was in the car. Not now.
"Where were you??" Viraaj asked in his stern voice and I shivered at his tone along with Vihaan who stood just beside me.
"W..woh Bh..bhai-"
"He was with me" I interrupted in between his words and looked at viraaj, meeting his eyes. His blue eyes were looking into mine without any emotion and it somewhere hurt me.
I averted my gaze from him and looked at Abhi Bhai,
"I called him and asked that if he wanted to spend some time with me, and at that he was already outside so we took him with us" I looked down towards my feet, feeling guilty for lying.
"It's okay, vihaan go inside" Abhi Bhai said and gestured Vihaan to go inside with his head.
I looked at vihaan and smiled at him before mouthing "go".
Vihaan looked at me and suddenly hugged me tightly, I was shocked but soon relaxed and hugged dhim back and patted his back.
"They won't scold you, jaldi se Jake so Jana" I whispered so that only he would be able to listen me.
"Thankyou, Bhabhi maa" he said, breaking the hug. My heart swelled with happiness and warmth when he called me Bhabhi and more happy when he added Maa.
"Go" I patted his head and smiled at him. He walked back but turned around and shouted
"Byee siyaa", he waved his hand.
Siya peeked from the window and waved her hand with a smile on her face "byee, champ" she said and again set on her seat when vihaan walked inside. I looked at Bhai and ignored Viraaj, I started walking backwards while saying
"Okay, Bhai I am also going-" I shriek when my feet entangled with something and I was about to fall. My heart raced as I prepared to fall, preparing myself to hit the hard ground. But as I closed my eyes, waiting for the impact, I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist, stopping my fall and holding me steady. My hands were wrapped around the person's neck tightly, saving myself from the fall.
My eyes slowly fluttered open, my heart still racing from of the fall. As my vision focused, my gaze met the familiar blue eyes of the one who had caught me, I was expecting them to be expressionless and blank but this time there were some emotions displayed in them, but I was not able to figure them out. We both were so close that his breath was falling on my face which made me shiver and my heartbeat faster then it was before.
"Shreya, you okay??" Siya's voice broke my thoughts and I stood on my feet and then removed my arms from his neck before muttering a small thankyou.
I looked in her direction and saw her standing near us, when did she came here.. I nodded my head and she sighed in relief.
"Let's go" I said and grabbed her hand before walking towards the car but she stopped in between, I turned around and looked at her in confusion but she removed her hand from my grip and walked towards them
She walked near Viraaj and said something in low voice so that I can't hear her, after a while she walked back and then we both sat inside before driving towards her house.
I rested my head on the headrest, and closed my eyes but everytime I close them, that one particular pairs of blue eyes were appearing infront of me. I immediately opened my eyes and took a deep breath, clearly appreciating the silence and space siya gave me.
What's happening with me???
