Chapter 9

Flashback 2

Abhidnya's Pov.

These two years have been the best. Everything was just perfect. I got the best of friends and moments that I would cherish forever. Shivansh and my friendship grew with each passing moment. And he also confessed his feelings 14 months back.

Yeah, I remember the exact number of months passed since that day. I always adored him a lot but wasn't sure about his feelings towards me.

Ever since we have been together, it's been a great time. We have each other's back no matter what, we understood each other, trusted each other, and liked each other a lot.

Today we all friends have arranged a farewell party at our friend's farmhouse.

Shivansh was going to pick me up and we were supposed to go together but as he was already at Vishal's place so, would meet me directly at the farmhouse.

I wore a black mid-thigh length dress and put minimal makeup leaving my hair open.

I drove myself to the venue. Shivansh as always was late. I went inside and got busy catching up with my friends.

Someone poked me on my back. I turned to find Shivansh standing with his school friend Vishal.

Shivansh gave me a hug while I just gave a smile to Vishal and greeted him.

I never really liked Vishal. Not because Shivansh sometimes avoided me for him but because I really didn't like his vibes or even his gaze on me.

We went to get drinks for ourselves as the party began and the DJ started playing Bollywood party songs. Shivansh and Vishal grabbed beers while I got myself coke.

We finished our drinks and went to hit the dance floor. I love dancing. I fully enjoy myself. Shivansh and I were dancing and he got a phone call.

So we both left the dance floor. He went outside to attend his call and I walked towards the restroom.

I was about to enter the restroom but someone caught my hand and forcefully dragged me in the empty corridor.

It didn't take even seconds to recognise who he was. He was none other than Vishal. I was very much shocked but not surprised.

"Let me also have some fun, Sweetie." He said forcing himself on me.

He grabbed me by my waist with one hand and his other hand wandered everywhere on my body.

I wanted to scream but I knew the music was very loud and no one could hear me.

He pinned me to the wall and his filthy hands roamed all over my body.

He tried to kiss me but I just stood there like a statue. I wanted to beat the crap out of him but he was so huge and I just couldn't help but stand there waiting to lose my dignity to an asshole.

I still tried getting out of his hold but he tightened his grip on me and I just winced in pain.

I was crying, pleading for help from someone who I knew has no idea what his best friend was up to.

I prayed that Shivansh would sense my absence and try to search for me. That's when I heard footsteps nearing.

Vishal left me the moment he heard the footsteps. I stood there numb with an expressionless face. He stood against the wall and made me stand facing him.

At that moment, I couldn't think of anything else but the disgusting feeling which was giving me goosebumps.

As soon as Vishal saw Shivansh, he pushed me away and went up to him.

"Your girlfriend is such a bitch man, she was trying to seduce me."

I knew Shivansh trusted me. I went up to him and was about to say something but Vishal cut me off.

"This whore dragged me here as soon as you left to attend the call and started forcing herself on me."

That just one word ripped my heart into pieces. I did nothing to deserve this. Tears started rolling down, I couldn't control them.

"Here comes the water work. Now she'll cry and say that I forced myself on her. Enough of your drama, my best friend trusts me enough and knows that I won't lie to him."

Shivansh stood there listening to everything Vishal was saying.

I wished him to stop Vishal right after the disgusting title he gave me.

I went near Shivansh and was about to talk to him but he ignored me. He was about to leave when I held his hand, he stopped and turned looking at me.

"I don't want to see your face again. How could you do this to me? I loved you and you faked it all the time. I never thought you would break my heart like this. How can you not care about my feelings? And don't even try to justify your mistake by any excuses or by accusing Vishal."

"But at least hear the truth, Shivansh" I pleaded.

"What Vishal told was the truth, I trust my best friend enough." He continued and walked away.

I went inside to get my purse. I sat in my car and tears started rolling down. I still can't believe he didn't trust me. He left me when I needed him very badly.

I reached home and quickly wiped my tears. I knew mom and dad would be asleep but still can't risk letting them know about the incident.

I opened the door without making any noise. Hopefully, both of them were asleep. I went up in my room tiptoeing and headed towards the bathroom.

I started the shower and stood under the water for about an hour. I couldn't help but still feel his filthy hands all over my body. It was the most disgusting feeling ever.

I washed myself for god knows how many times and broke down and sat there crying after turning off the shower.

I dressed up and went to my bed. The scenes were repeating like they were on a loop. It did hurt me how Shivansh just walked away but the thought that bothered me the most was, what if Shivansh didn't walk on us at the right time, though he was late?

The whole month went in crying myself to sleep, getting up in the middle of the night due to nightmares. I also couldn't help the panic attacks.

I wanted to talk to someone about it. Let my all feelings out but didn't know how to. I knew if I tell my friends they would judge me or blame me. I wanted to tell mom and dad but it would do nothing but break their hearts.

I motivated myself to not think about it anymore and continued to study. I wanted to fulfill my dreams and this wasn't the time where I waste my tears and time. I had to let go of that incident.

And these thoughts really helped me. I got so much engrossed in the studies that I never even spared even a second thinking about anything or anyone.

On the last day of the exam after finishing my paper when I was about to leave, Shivansh approached me and said, "At least accept your mistake and try to apologize? How long are you going to avoid me? If you can betray me, you should have the courage to admit it. Why run like a coward?"

His words did nothing but hurt me. I tried reasoning but he cut me off.

"Don't give me excuses, just accept the fact that you did a mistake and betrayed me."

I knew he won't understand even if I tried. I just left without turning back.

I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs and tell him how disgusting it feels but sensing that he won't get it, I was left with no choice but to just leave.
