I glared at Aiden. He was looking at me with his pleading eyes.
"I am very sorry dude, I didn't expect him to be someone like him".
He was not at fault as Sam was acting very naive around him.
I asked him furiously, "What if he didn't warn me?
"Who?" The three of them asked n at the same moment.
"Actually, yesterday when Sam was talking about taking us home with him , I got a call from an anonymous person and warned me not to go with Sam. He was literally threatening me. Even I felt a sense of danger and that's why I refused to do so."
I said them.
Isha said, "Who could that he who knows his name and even got your number? This seem strange to me." Aiden spoke out, "I think the person who called you would have someone from the group who handed over Sam to the police. They didn't reveal themselves and would have been watching every step of this most wanted criminal. And they have every means and getting your number is not at all a big deal."
"And you decided to send us with this most wanted criminal."
"I am very sorry guys and am saying it again. I promise to take care of it", he said with pleading eyes.
When Aiden raised his suspicion I became sad. Deep inside my heart I believed that it would be Amaan but if what he said was actually the truth then he would not have been involved.
I went to bathroom and took a cold shower which calmed my mind.
We drank coffee and started with our works. If I want to take leave for Didi's marriage then I should complete all the pending works. This week is going to be hell.
Weeks passed by quickly and each day I was getting thin due to heavy work load.
I wake up this morning with a bright smile. I am finally going home today and the next week my didi is getting married!!!
I am overwhelmed with joy and have been yearning to meet her. I started packing my bags as I have only limited time ahead as I will be leaving after my class.
Isha came in after her exercises and said, "My girl is very happy it seems. Convey my regards to her."
I smiled and said, "Of course yaar and come home before a week or so."
After packing I went to dress up. I took a short white chiffon top with black stripes and tied the belt around my waist. I paired it with black jeggings and wore kajal and let my hair in a messy bun and then we headed towards our classes. As I was in the mood of getting home as soon as possible the classes were so boring.
After the class, we went to the canteen. Aiden said, "So you will be back only after two weeks, right?"
"Yes and luckily we have a leave for 5 days."
"So how are you going since you haven't booked tickets?"
"Didi told me that uncle will be coming to pick me. And I totally forgot to call her after the class."
I fished through the bag for my phone. I took it out and called her. "Hello dear dear. Hope you have finished your class."
"Yeah didi and where is uncle right now?"
"Actually uncle is not coming as he has still to invite a lot of people and I have sent someone else for you. He called me and said he has reached there. And baby am in a bit of hurry and see you soon."
"Ok yaar ." She hung up the phone.
I turned around and searched for that person. But she didn't mention who is coming for me. Suddenly I met a pair of hazel eyes looking at me intently.
I dropped my jaw in awe. Oh God it's Amaan. Seeing my reaction Aiden asked, "What happened? Why are you..... before he could complete he saw the source of my reaction and was shocked too.
"Why is he here?".
"To pick me up."
"What??" Three of them squeaked.
He started walking towards us. He was in a different mood today. He was very calm and had a smile. Aiden greeted him and he smiled back but he was hiding something as if he not comfortable.
He said with a smirk, "I think you must try dieting . You look like a balloon right now."
All these days of hardwork had really make me worn out. But is it what of telling. Always upto teasing me.
Sasha joined him too, "Yeah , she has been always into yoga and exercises but all in vain right? "
I glared at her ,fuming in anger.
I said, "So bye guys. Meet you soon." I have everyone a bro-hug. They bid me goodbye and we walked towards his car. I went to open the back seat when I reminisced the last time when we travelled together. He would again embarass me and say he is not my driver. So I went to sit in the front seat.
He is very happy today, I wondered why?
"By the way , you look good, even being too thin." He is praising me a moment and the other moment he is teasing me. I just gave him a sly smile.
He chuckled on my response.
Oh God I have to travel with him for almost 30 hours and I have no idea what is going to happen. I wish I would not disclose anything .
I was in panic and felt uneasiness . I bit my lower lip tensed. I was lost in thoughts when he snapped his fingers. He had been calling me and I didn't notice it. He asked me, "What is wrong with you? You seem upset."
I said, "Nothing, but why have you stopped the car?"
"To grab something to eat, it has been an hour since we started from Punjab. Aren't you hungry?"
I just nodded my head.
He opened the door and I followed him too. We sat on our seats and a waiter came and asked for our order.
He ordered for Aloo paratha and butter chicken with masala chai for us.
How I wished to eat them. Those were my favourites but, does he know that I love them. I looked at him. He said, "Don't think I ordered them cause you like it. I love to eat them too."
Pretending not to care but you are caught Amaan. I just giggled at his response.
