[MUMBAI, MAHARSHTRA]
Vrisha’s Pov
The flight land in Mumbai at 9 pm, the flight was late for two hours. I’m in the taxi, I’m going home after three years I missed my family a lot. The busy roads of Mumbai haven’t changed yet. I’ll be late now, I haven’t told anyone that I’m coming back, mom and dad will be surprised. When I reach at the building I paid the money for the taxi. Thanks to Riya, Riya had given me some money to keep. I’ll pay her back whatever she has done for me. I enter in the building. We are living here since my childhood.
Smile pass on my lips as I saw the name plate out which was hanging on the door PATKAR HOUSE. I rang the doorbell. The excitement on my face to see my parents was visible. Slowly the door opened by my elder sister Khushi Patkar. “Who are you?” she asked
“I’m here to kill you,” I said as I pushes the door. I don’t know why Khushi didi doesn’t like me, she never called me when I was in Bhopal. She works in the chemical industry, she was a very good student since childhood. Don’t know what problem she has with me.
“Mom and dad I’m back” I screamed as soon as I enter in the house
“Yes, the aimless girl is back” Khushi didi rolled her eyes
“Vrisha?” My Dad's mouth was just openly looking at his younger daughter in front of him. My mom scanned me from up to down because of my clothes as I’m wearing a one piece. “Had you left your wearing sense here only?” my mom asked, oh god who will make my mother understand that it is fashion.
“C’mon mom, I can wear whatever I like, its fashion,” I said hugging mom
“Yes, Yes she can wear anything as it is all of dad’s money” Khushi taunt me but, I completely ignored her as I knows her rudeness will never change towards me
I’d dinner with my family after so long, dad feed me with his hands. I enjoyed it having dinner with my family. But the only thing that was not leaving my mind I’d cheated on my boyfriend, the mistake I’ve done. After drinking the milk that mom gives me I jump into my room to my bed. Mom came into my room she did my head massage and she left my room by kissing on my forehead. I was in my thoughts when a message pop up
Arjun-: “I’m back in India, I’m now in Delhi, I’ll come tomorrow to Mumbai” I don’t understand if I should be happy or sad after reading his message how can I faces him tomorrow I thought as I replied to the message.
Vrisha-: “I’m very excited to meet you.” I typed the message and click on the send bottom and throw my phone the table

My hands were trembling he was in front of me, we were in the coffee shop. “Vrisha,” he called my name as he hold my hand “Why you’re so cold? Are you okay?” Arjun asked as he checked my temperature
“No, I’m fine,” I said as I look out, I don’t want to make eye contact.
“I’m very sorry, I was busy at work I’d to attend parties as per my partners, I’d to arrangement as per my boss,” He explained, I just nodded my head.
“What’s wrong with you vrisha??” he asked, I can’t take this any more, I don’t want to be a liar I don’t to hide anything from him. what is happening to me I’m losing myself, I’m being crazy.
Okay, Alright “I want to tell you something Arjun,” I said as my breath get hold.
Tears rolled down my cheeks “I’ve done one mistake,means I don’t know what exactly happen to me” I felled ashamed of myself as I told him each and everything.
I was sobbing, and his eyes were darkened he hold my hand and we came out of the cafe. “I’m very sorry but I love you so much,” I said as we came near his car the next moment he slapped me very hard on my cheeks.
“If you’d loved me, you’d never have done this, you’ve cheated on me. You don’t deserve my loyalty…. You’ve broken down me completely. [he snapped his hand on the car] I was the fool you loved you madly who thought about you every second when I was in Russia… everything is ended between us”

“ARJUN” I screamed Arjun’s name, ohh god!! it was a dream… it was a bad dream I was sweating, I drank some water…. Breath heavily as I Lay down again on my bed“What should I do? How he will react when he will know I’m not a virgin? He’ll be so angry maybe he’ll hit me… but what If he leaves me? I’ll be destroyed… I’m nothing without Arjun’s name”
“it's better to keep some things hidden” advice my heart, I was waiting for tomorrow, I’m going to hug him so tightly. I’ll never tell him about the mistake I’ve done with the stranger man.
