It's been 4 days since he talked to her. Both of them are busy in their own lives. He often comes late and finds her sleeping.

Sometimes he ends up sleeping on the couch not because his bed is occupied by her but because he comes home so exhausted that he lies on the couch to rest for 5 minutes and he falls asleep like he is about to sleep right now.

“Why are you sleeping here?” his eyes opened and he saw Arya, standing in front of him. He realized that he almost slept here like yesterday.

"Are you okay? should I serve dinner?” he shook his head "No I already had dinner" he stood up, grabbed his coat and went to the washroom.

He sighed and kept his coat aside. He needs a warm bath or else he is going to die. Not to forget he got a few details about Ritika, proving that she is in Jaipur. 

That day he got a call from Ayush, his friend who is helping him in finding Ritika. He hadn't said anything about this to anyone. Ayush said he had to inform him of something important right now so he went to him.

Flashback
When he got there Ayush gave him an envelope. When he opened it, he saw some pictures of her with some people. He guessed it was her family. She seemed happy.

"Who are they?" Reyansh asked him. 

"Her family. She was very young when her mother and her little brother died in an accident and from then on her father raised her with so much love and care. She loves her father very much but.. he has a disease so for her father's best treatment she needs money that's why she applied to many companies for the job but got rejected and when she applied to yours you selected her.”

"What happened to her father?"

"Serious heart disease"

"Ohhh.." He exclaimed. 

"According to the information I got she was in Paris. Her father was admitted to the hospital But..her father..." He stopped.

"What happened to him..?"

"Doctors couldn't save him.." He said.

"What?" Ayush nodded. First thing that came into Reyansh’s mind after listening to him was how she was feeling after losing her whole family. He can’t help but hope she will be fine?

"Where is she now?" He asked.

"She is back.."

"Here?" He nodded.

But still, the question is Why she always showed that she loved him. Did she want money for her father's treatment? but she could have directly asked him. He wants to meet her and ask her everything.

"Find her exact address as soon as possible" he said and left from there.
Flashback ends.

And still, he is searching for her address. He doesn't know why the fuck Ayush is taking so long.

After taking a shower he walked outside and saw Arya looking at something with so much concentration. She was in deep thought and had a constant smile on her face 

He wondered what she must be thinking about. He cleared his throat to get her attention. She panicked after seeing him and hid that thing in an instant and Gave him a smile.

Not giving it much thought, he took his laptop and sat beside her.

She was arranging her books when her eyes fell on a small wooden box. The box which made her heart go crazy even before she held it in her hand.

"Because you took his bracelet and in return, he took your heart" That's what Arohi said when she told her everything.

She took the box, sat on the bed and opened it. The box opened with a click and she pulled out the bracelet. She thought once she got married, this bracelet wouldn’t make her heart crazy but its effect is the same. 

"I wish I could see you, now you aren't mine. I have to move on from you, there's no chance I can think about you when I am married to someone" she touched it gently and with that she got lost in her thoughts until she heard the sound of a clearing throat which brought her back from her world and she immediately hid the bracelet into the drawer and gave him a smile a forced one.

"What are you hiding?" he asked.

"Nothing" She gets her hands in front of him to show him and his lips drawn into a smile at her antics giving her butterflies in her stomach. He looks cute and admiring when he smiles.

He came and sat on his side and started working on his laptop while she opened her favorite novel and started reading it. There was distance between them but still, she was feeling the closeness. 

She looked at him and forgot what she was doing. He looked so handsome with his messy hair and perfect jawline and the serious expressions he was making. He was looking very hot and she fist her hands to prevent any dirty thoughts.

Her eyes went to his veiny hands and his long fingers working on the keyboard. Her mind suddenly went to think how these figures look wrapped around...

She closed her eyes and shook her  head to remove all dirty thoughts and looked back to her novel again.

She took a deep breath and shut the novel swiftly. It was some dark romance scene.

It made a sudden noise which startled him and he looked at her. She swiftly put her book on her lap and looked at him who was already looking at her with raised eyebrows.

"Sorry It was just....." She just went silent at the end.

He again focused back on his laptop while she leaned back on the bed and decided to look at his laptop, curious to know what he was doing. But to her bad luck, his laptop was slightly tilted to the other side making it hard for her to look into it.
