Chapter 21: chapter 21

Vaishali enjoyed the whole day staying with Ayesha and dadu...she felt as if she was at home only because dadu and Ash did not make her feel like a guest even for one second.They took full care of her because both of them knew her condition. They made her eat something or the other after every few hours. It was already evening when Ash came with a bowl of fruits for her. She stood up from the sofa and said making faces like a small child Vaishali: Enough...I cannot have anything anymore...dadu please tell her not to bring more stuffs.Dadu: no beta, fruits are very important for you...at this stage.Vaishali: I feel like I had a whole week's meal together....I think even baby is tired of having so much food.Ash came to her and said rubbing her belly.Ash: let him or her be...anyways baby should know that his maashi is there to take full care of him.  Am I right baby?Dadu: Yes Yes your totally right Ash...listen Vaishali beta don't ever think that no one is there for you or your baby. Me and Ash are always there for you..no matter what happens we will always support you.Vaishali became emotional listening this, her eyes filled up full of tears. She tried to control it but couldn't ultimately letting those fall.Vaishali: Th..Thank you so much Dadu, Ash...just because of you all I'm alive today...otherwise..Dadu: Don't ever think of this...I mind you...Vaishali(wiping her tears): Thank you...thank you so much..She took a look towards her watch and saw that it was already 6. Taking her bag she said Vaishali: I think I should go back now dadu..as it's already turning dark...afterwards I'll not get a vehicle to go back.Dadu: why don't you stay here today...Vaishali: Thank you so much for asking dadu...but I can't... next time!!Dadu: But..Vaishali: Please dadu...Dadu: fine...but you'll not go alone...wait Shaurya..Hearing dadu calling him, Shaurya came out from his study room looking all tired. It was evident enough that he was working the whole day that is why he looked so tired and weak.Dadu: Are you free now?Shaurya: Why?Dadu: Go and drop her back...Shaurya: but I did picked her up in the morning...Dadu: So what? Can't you drop her? Shaurya: But I'm busy now....you tell somebody else..Vaishali: It's okay dadu...please don't bother him... I can manage myself..Dadu: But?Vaishali: It's okay...Ash: it's okay I'll drop you Vaishu...Vaishali: No yaar it's fine...please I'll go. Please She walked towards the main door when Shaurya said in his cold voice Shaurya: I'll drop you...Saying this he went out before her while both dadu and Ash giggled looking at his action.Vaishali made a confused expression and looked towards Dadu and Ash who smiled at her waving a goodbye. She too waved them back and went out.There she saw, Shaurya already inside the car waiting for her. She quietly came and sat beside him while he asked with a serious expression Shaurya: Are you happy now?Vaishali(confused): What do you mean sir?Shaurya: Weren't you the one who was acting smart before dadu awhile ago....now don't pretend that you are innocent...Vaishali: I'm not pretending anything sir... I actually can go by my own. It's okay if you don't drop me..Shaurya: Now don't act...Vaishali (with little anger): I'm not acting...i can go...i don't need your help.Saying this she tried to get down from the car but he immediately locked the doors. After trying for sometime when she saw that the door won't open she sat back on the seat with a grumpy face. While he smirked and started the engine and going  back towards the hotel. As Shillong is  a cold town so whether it's summer time or winter time but it would always be surrounded with chilling breeze. So even today it was quite cold..Vaishali was never inhabited with this kind of weather so she felt cool wind running through her body sending shivers down her spine. She gently rubbed her palms inside the car when Shaurya noticed this. He did not do or say anything at that moment, he just kept on driving.After they reached near the hotel, he looked towards her side and saw her in deep slumber. Her baby hair were coming infront of her face covering it. For a moment he kept looking at her without blinking. A small smile crept up his lips, he tried to remove those hairs when suddenly she woke up with a jerk.She looked at him with sleepy eyes while he cleared his throat saying Shaurya: We have reached...Vaishali: Tha..thank you sir..Shaurya: Hm...As she was going to open the door he stopped her and said Shaurya: Wait...here take this.He gives her a hoody which he was wearing..she looks at him with questioning eyes while he replies with a authorative toneShaurya: Here, take this....it is cold outside and I'm sure you'll catch cold so for you safety...Vaishali: But..Shaurya: Don't think much and take it...Vaishali: Thank you sir..She wears the hoody and comes out of the car while he watches her without any expression. She gives him a light smile and waves bye Vaishali: Goodnight sir...thank you for dropping me Shaurya: It's okay ..Without even staying for a minutes he leaves from there while she goes inside the hotel with a satisfactory look.Next day after working for a whole time finally it was time for her to go that's when Ash came to her and said Ash: Vaishu, I have got a perfect apartment for you...we will have to go today itself...come with me..
