Chapter 5

• Ekansh's POV:
• My phone rang. It was mom.
• I left her a message that I was busy and would call her back soon.
• I turned to see Rohan standing up.
• He approached me and my guys blocked him.
• "You've already breached the peace by entering my space. Time for you to be careful, Rohan!", I warned him and got into the car.
• He frowned at me.
• "You started it again EKANSH! Nothing can stop me this time." he said and left.
• Ash walked to my car.
• Before he could speak, I drove off. My ears were hot.
• I drove the car like a maniac.
• I stopped in front of the girls' dormitory. I wanted to know
• what exactly happened there
• I heard a screeching car, few girls
• he looked at me impatiently.
• When I got out, they eyed me lustfully. It was
• a year in a girls' dormitory. Old Eky is dead.
• But check out this mysterious girl coming back
• the devil in me
• I walked in and put my hands in my sweatshirt
• pocket.
• I climbed the stairs and stopped as I realized I didn't know her dorm number.
• I walked down the hallway on the first floor. I saw Rihanna. "Rihanna!" I called her from behind.
• “Hello, Enkashi. she was surprised and glad to find it
• me.
• How should I ask her now?
• A message popped up on my phone just in time.
• I got an idea.
• "Hmm, you'll have a fresher day."
• tomorrow."
• "Yes, I got the message," she tipped
• eyebrow.
• "Ah. Yeah. I know. But us seniors will host it. It's like a tradition. The seniors have to throw it to the juniors and-"
• Yes, I'm stupid. I'm stuck in place.
• She had a confused look on her face.
• "Okay. Let's cut the crap. I want to know Aarna's dorm
• number.” I said taking a long breath.
• Rihanna's smile disappeared.
• “One hundred and six.
• "This floor itself?" I asked.
• "Yeah."
• "Thanks." I said as I passed her. She faked a smile.
• I looked at the track numbers.
• He finally found it.
• The door was closed. I started knocking and calling her name, "Aarna!"
• "Aarna."
• There was no moment inside. Is he here or not?
• Now I was worried about her.
• I was upstairs to knock again when she opened the door.
• "What are you doing here Ekanshi?"
• Her voice was like nectar to me.
• I bought myself and noticed tears on her face under her eyes. Did she cry?
• "Are you okay?"
• She nodded without meeting my eyes. "Aarna."
• "Aarnaa!"
• Is he in some kind of shock or doesn't he know her name?!
• "AARNAAAAA!"
• She flinched and looked at me, “Why the hell are you
• screaming?"
• My volcano erupted.
• I grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the darkness
• college.
• I dragged her along. She just followed me
• this time without yelling or arm wringing.
• All the girls were more than shocked to see me pulling a
• hostel girl like this.
• I took her close to my parked car which was quite enough
• isolated and nobody saw us.
• "Ekan-"
• I pressed her against the car. She hit the driver
• window, trapped between my arms.
• The nerves in my hand bulged with tension
• how my sleeves rolled up beating Rohan.
• She looked at it and looked at me with fear.
• "What did he do to you?"
• "Nothing." she replied.
• "Don't lie to me. You're crying.", I told the boring holes
• her amber eyes literally rubbed my nose
• her.
• “Why did you pull me out of the dorm like that?!” she said with her bold look.
• “I can't enter your dorm. People will think
• you are sick.” I said.
• She blinked for a few seconds.
• "You're bloody innocent. You don't even know how big."
• trouble you're getting into.” I said rudely
• voice.
• She smirked and looked away.
• “Aarna-
• "Nothing happened to me!" she said and slipped out
• my arms
• “Stop acting like you care about me
• know each other. It was not a day for me
• here." she added and entered the hostel.
• Literally got chills on my face when I heard that.
• Yeah. Shes right. Why do I force myself so much?
• for her?
• I leaned my back against the car. Hands behind head
• for support.
• "Something is wrong with me.", I sighed and looked at the window and noticed a girl disappearing behind a bush.
• I turned to look and saw no one. Who was
• eavesdrop on us?
• I ran towards the bushes. The ID card lied. I chose it
• up and saw Rihanna's name.
• There was only one question in my head, her
• behind that? What was she doing here?
• I came back and sat in the car.
• After college, we older people had to stay
• back in the seminar room to plan for tomorrow
• celebration.
• We were leaving the hall when Nitha
• he entered She's one of my exes. The freshest
• one, although we broke up two years ago, on a
• happy note
• She only wanted me in her bed and for the glory. and I
• she never gave it a chance even after six months of relationship, which annoyed her. I understood her intentions and we broke up because we couldn't fulfill each other's desires.
• With a fake smile on her plastic face
• She tried to walk like a model.
• My boys tried to control their laughter at the sight of her
• Walk.
• Ash, "Let's go somewhere else.", said and they
• moved.
• “Hello Ekanshi. she said, emphasizing the letter "k" and
• 'sh'.
• “Hi Nitha. I said casually.
• “I heard you rescued a girl from Rohan today
• she warned him too.” she said, widening her eyes to feign astonishment.
• I laughed, “Words traveled faster than that
• light."
• She smiled uneasily.
• "You know about her (Aarna) too. What else are you doing
• Do you want to know? From me?"
• "Nothing." she answered quickly.
• She traced my face with her index finger, "It's so boring these days. Seeing you wild makes me wilder, honey." “She said seductively and reached up to touch her hand to my lips as I held her.
• “You have to move on before it's too late. I said
• and left from there.
• The next day we had lectures, only until lunch.
• After lunch, refreshment time began.
• I haven't seen Aarna since yesterday.
• My eyes were thirsty to see her. Dress code for
• freshmen were supposed to wear a gown to the event. I saw
• everyone entered the hall except her.
• They closed the doors of the seminary. Why is it mine?
• damn college so accurate at the wrong time!
• The moderator also started the welcome speech.
• I looked for Rohan in the ranks, he was not there either
• his friends.
• Why do I care?! According to her, Aarna can take care of herself. I rolled my eyes. I can't be like her.
• I quietly walked towards the exit.
