Chapter 61: First Day Of the College

 

Samarth's POV

 

"Aradhya, get up, " I placed a soft kiss kn her temple. She snuggles further into my bare chest.

"Wake up, " I whined again but all in vain.

"Your new attire is out of understanding. You read till late at night and now you are sleeping. I think you will not reach in the college on time, " I shook her again and shook my head hearing her answer, "Let me sleep for a few minutes, otherwise I will sleep in the exam hall."

I got up and filled the bathtub with water. This is the last time. I yelled, "Are you getting up or not?"

"Five minutes, " She hid her face with a pillow.

I carried her in bridal style, she pouted, "Please, leave me."

I directly dropped her in the bathtub. She barked, "What the hell?"

"This is called a bathtub, not the hell, " I shook my head. She took some water and washed her face.

"Within 10 minutes, I want you in the dining room, okay, " I strictly warned her.

"What is time?" She asked while rubbing her eyes.

"8.30," I announced.

"What?" 

"Yes, will you try to save your time?" I taunted and exited from the bathroom.

I want to know about the last year of her college. She was in the same college as Sameer. 

But I skipped asking because of her upcoming exams. She managed everything perfectly on the day of the engagement ceremony. After that day, she started preparing for her exams. I never disturbed her, if she slept late at night or awoke early or late. I can see her hard work. 

Sometimes I worried about her health but she took proper care of her and also mine. She slept so late last night. Today is her first day in college and she is going to give an exam. 

I selected a dress for her and hung on the stand inside the closet. I got ready and went to the ground floor. I have appointed a new driver cum bodyguard for her. I know she will be irritated but I don't have any option. 

Sameer isn't caught up by us. So there is a big question for her safety. 

Sameer lot everything because he harmed her. He won't leave us to live happily. He warned that he will be back. It cleared that he will be back one day for his revenge.

I stepped down and found a man sitting on the sofa with Ravi. Ravi and the man stood up seeing me. I indicated them to sit again. I sat in front of them.

"Good morning, sir. He is Rajat Sharma. You ordered me to find out the driver cum bodyguard for madam, he is perfect for that job, " Ravi introduced me.

I checked all his papers, Ravi is extra at his all work. He inquired about him everything, also his police verification report is attached.

I exchanged our contact details and connect his location with my phone, also gave him instructions related to her security, her likes and dislikes. 

"And the most important, never pretend as her bodyguard always stays in touch with me, she will hate you and annoy you, never make her annoy, she will be habitual with you, but will take some time, " I said with a smile.

She is coming, I glanced at her, she is running on the stairs. I barked, "Slowly..."

But before I could say further, she is in the living hall.

"Good morning," she greeted nervously.

"Aradhya, meet him. He is Rajat Sharma, your driver, " I introduced.

"What? I mean, I can drive, " She argued.

"Yes, but I told Samarth to arrange the driver for you, as you are going to give exams, so you can not concentrate on driving. So it will be better if there is someone to drive, " Dadi interrupted between us. Of course, Dadi told me a few days ago to hire a driver for her.

She can not argue with Dadi, that makes my work easy. But my angry bird didn't say 'Hello' to Rajat. He just smiled at her, and she doesn't give him a response.

We had breakfast silently. Ravi and Rajat also joined us. Everyone Blessed her and she went back to our room to bring her purse and phone.

I stopped her when she tried to come out of the room. She rolled her eyes, I know she is angry on me as I hired the driver for her.

I closed the door and embraced her in my arms, "Wish you all the best, I'm not coming with you as I have an important meeting to attend. I will wait for your message at 12.30 pm. And if my angry wifey will not send me a message or not make a call, I will be in the college in the next 20 minutes. Your college campus is only 20 minutes away from my office if I use shortcuts to reach you."

"Why you hired him? He is looking like Hitler, and driver, there is no connection between his body structure and job, " She irritated.

"Aradhya, only for a few days, then I will fire him, promise, " fairly console her. If his work is perfect, he will be with her as her shadow to protect her.

"I said, All the best, " I again said and she kissed on my cheeks, "Thank you and... I love you, I will miss you a lot."

"I will miss you too, " I kissed back on her forehead and added, "We will have lunch together, I will wait for you."

"Okay, and order that Rajat Sharma, he must stay in the car otherwise I will kick him out, " She ordered me and we laughed.

She exited the mansion, I also sat in my car. And I'm not going to attend any meeting. How can I allow her to go alone? I followed them.

 

— Aaradhya's POV

 

I slipped into the car nervously, I thought Samarth will come with me, and that idiot sent me with a driver. I will take revenge for that.

My heart is pounding rapidly, new college, new students and my first day. We reached the college. 

"You just stay here, don't dare to follow me and don't come inside until I call you, " I warned Rajat and slipped out of the car.

The harassment I was facing since the morning was not enough that I found Aaliya in front of me.

I changed the path but she ran to me, "Hey, Arohi... It's me, Aaliya.. Wait."

I have to wait for her. Inside, I'm nervous and this way, I will get her company. She came and took a deep breath as she ran to me and felt tired.

"Hii, Good morning, " I greeted.

"Are you new here?" She asked me and I nodded.

"I'm also, " She showed her hall ticket for the exam.

Unnecessary, we are in the same class. We searched for the class and entered inside.

She is on the first bench and I'm exactly behind her. She is happy and my heart is comforting as at least one person is here with me, whom I know.

"Mrs Goenka, I hope you are fine and adjusting with our college and student, " The supervisor of the class said to me suddenly.

My heart skipped a breath, everyone is looking at each other to find out, with whom the professor is talking. I shook my head nervously.

The gossiping sound is coming from everywhere. I just avoided the sound and concentrate on the exam. After three hours, I finished my exam. I submitted my answer sheet to the professor, he smiled at me genuinely, I also smiled back.

I came out with Aaliya and took my phone to text Samarth. Suddenly, someone snatched my phone. Aaliya also stuck with this act. She is scared.

A boy in front of us smirked at me, "So you are Mrs Goenka, right?"

"Yes, I'm Mrs Aradhya Samarth Goenka. Have you any problem Mr XYZ?" I gave him a death glare.

Aaliya got one more shock. Her question "How's the exam" stucked in her throat.

"I'm not Mr XYZ, I'm Rocky, " He offered his hand to shake.

"Will you give me my phone back?" I said with attitude obviously not in a pleading tone.

"If I don't give you, " He smirked with evilness.

"Fine, keep it with you, " I shrugged and jogged out from there. As I know he can not open my phone and the message or call won't be received by Samarth, he will be here in twenty minutes.

"By the way, we are not less than that oldie Goenka, " He and his friends laughed loudly on me. His words stopped me. 

All the students are looking at me. When he laughed at me. I turned to him, I asked him with narrowed eyes and an angry voice, "Have you ever meet Mr Samarth Goenka?"

"No, and no need for that. We all know, he is the best CEO from last 3 or 4 years. When the person achieves this place, he must 35 to 40 years old. And a bitch like you married to the old man like him, only for money, " He insulted me in front of all the college.

I checked the time, it's only seven minutes passed. All the students are gossiping while pointing towards me.

My eyes filled, I can see concern for me into Aaliya's eyes. I gritted my teeth and stepped to slap him hard.

Before I slapped him, a hard punch fell on his cheek, which broke his two teeth and filled his mouth with blood. He fell on the floor with screaming loudly.
