Chapter 6

Ria’s POV

I think a 19 year old like me who seems to find new ways, new beginnings isn’t in the process of getting those. I spent nearly one month in my college , with all the ups and downs coming my way, especially with my so-called boyfriend Arsh , who never failed to hurt me time and again . I could recall one incident when I was returning from my usual classes , I saw him standing by the corridor and felt like he was holding something with his one hand and was so involved in talking. I took a step forward then what I saw just shook me.

Arsh was literally holding a girl with his one hand and they were so involved into each other , devouring every inch of each other. I was with my friends Adriana and Rysa, both of them were just staring at me and gave me a questioning look.

“Arsh, how could you?” My tears were streaming down my face . I had no valid questions to ask him, it was just my broken self , I felt like I’m completely shattered. All these years I have been mistaken and I have been cheated . With that I ran away from them , I kept on running till the time I reached my dorm and locked myself in my room.

The days passed by Arsh kept on coming to me apologising for what he did. However, one thing he kept on saying was that the girl named Tamara just tried to seduce him and he was the one to fall in her trap.

Present Day

“Ria , it's been 2 months you have stopped talking to me , please try to understand I genuinely love you and I want to give this relationship a chance, please Ria consider this time I beg of you”, said Arsh with his folded hands.

He knows my weakness , he knows that a little care from him can melt me down so he took that as an advantage.

“I never wanted anything from you neither was I demanding to you ever, all I wanted was your love and a little of time and care , which you didn’t show me rather you did what I never expected that in my wildest imagination, but you know somewhere I still want to try and give it a chance” I retorted as I honestly wanted to given this relationship a chance, I’m not that type who would easily give up on people.

Arsh gave me a bone breaking hug and I just gave a slight smile to him and left .

Well, recently I got to know that rude man who came into my dorm that day . He was Avyaan Sehgal , Ishita Sehgal’s brother . That day he came to drop both Cassie and Ishita into our dorm as they both were heavily drunk. I didn’t see him after that. I got to know that he’s kind of a really introvert. He hardly turns up to the college. “ Hey, Ria I just want to apologise for what my brother did”, said Ishita with an apologising gaze.

“ It’s alright” , I sighed

Something is true for sure his face constantly strikes my mind whenever I’m studying or doing any work. I just couldn’t concentrate. I know it’s unfair but it is what it is . I try to avoid it but still it’s beyond my control.
