25. I met you. Again.

ROOHI.

Our flight landed and we came out as helpers brought our luggage out behind us.

"Let's go to where he is right now." I said to Rajveer as he shooked his head in disagreement.

"You must be suffering jet lag let's go to our hotel and rest then we go and meet him," he said I wanted to revolt back but I was here because of him. Why should I try to go against him?

I nodded as we left for our hotel in the car. We reached there and went up with our separate master keys as our doors were just beside each other and I went inside my room as I relaxed a bit without knowing that I was tensed all this time.

I looked around at the white brown room and looking at the brown furniture I remember how I tried my best to insult him when I met him after four years.

The time hasn't passed much but people have changed immensely.

I heard a knock on the door and it was the room service. I let them in as they brought food to me. And told me that man next door asked for delivery.

It was evening and I looked at the food but I didn't have any appetite. It feels as if a block of the cube is stuck in my neck and I can't gulp it down.

I just lay down on my bed looking at the white ceiling. I checked my phone and I saw a few missed calls from an unknown number.

I tried to call back but now there was no answer. No reply.

I wondered who could it be.  But it was pointless. I don't have anyone to think about who will call me.

It must be just the wrong number.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, remembering every piece of him. Either nice or bad-

I woke up by the sunshine from the open curtains as I sat up.

"Roohi I'm waiting at the hotel lobby. Are you ready? " He asked me and I replied to him that I'm coming.

I got ready as soon as I can as I went down. I saw him just at the gate. I greeted him as he asked for breakfast and I was still feeling not fine to eat and drink. So I just went there and tried my best to ignore eating anything but I had to take one-two bites when he looked at me.

"We are going now. Will you be fine with it?" he asked me and I nodded to him while inside I was unsure of anything right now.

We got off the table as he went towards the elevator and I was astonished by what he was doing.

"Why are we going up again? " I asked him not understanding his actions.

"He lives on the floor above us," he said to me and my eyes widen in the realization of what he said just now.

He was right above me. Just a floor up. And I didn't know.

I didn't have any idea.

We went into the elevator. My hand was sweating as so many things were running inside me.

What?  Why?

The elevator opened and I took a deep breath as I entered the floor following Rajveer as he told me this was the door. Even though the room is just right above mine.

I knocked on the door as a room service woman opened the door.

"Where is the man from this room?" I asked her as she smiled.

"He is in the shower. Would you like to wait for him on the floor waiting lounge?" she told me in her American accent I disagreed and then I heard his bathroom door opening.

The room was a super deluxe suite. Unlike mine.

"Sir a woman is asking for you? Should I -"

"Let her in and leave," he said to her as she took her trolley with cleaning stuff and left.

For the last time, I embraced myself with my power as I entered the room and he pivoted to look at me. His eyes widen as soon as he saw my face and something in his competitive body relaxed.

But I was relaxed. Even when I was seeing a wound on the left side of his waist and scars of cuts from the accident on his face.

I wasn't affected.

I'm unsure who am I telling this to.

I went to him and slapped him. And he was more surprised by my action.

"How can you use me like that to just get to my company?" he asked me as his eyes widen but they changed into something different. Something I can read.

"You are meeting me after six months. And this is what you have to me?" he said in a disappointed voice.

Who the hell is he to get disappointed in me?

"I don't care about you or how you are doing. You used me for your benefit. YOU ASSHOLE!" I yelled at him as he grabbed my wrist before I can slap in again as he pushed me and pinned me to the wall.

"I don't fucking know what you are talking about right now. But your behaviour is upsetting me. Change and come to your posture or you will see those sides of mine. You never thought that existed. "
