Dhruv's point of view

I was again feeling like someone pushed me to the dark tunnel and closed the doors and let the darkness sucking out my soul slowly. Yash and Aditi's voice still are echoing in my mind and they both are asking me for the help to save them from their parents. But I can't reach them because I was being stuck in this dark tunnel. Again the monster of darkness caged me in his grip and this time his grip was more tough then before. He was laughing at me while sucking the soul out of me and I know today is the end of me.

"Dhruv....."

I heard her voice again and I pressed my both hands near to my ear to block the voice.

"Dhruv, what happened? Who did this to you?"  Her voice was feeling more real now and she wasn't crying.

"Please I am sorry. Please go. I can't handle all this." I said while closing my eyes tightly. She put my head on her lap and I hide my face in her stomach to block everything from my sight.

"Dhruv, Humari or dekhiye. Hum hai Aditi. Aapki dost." She was pleading to me and requesting me to look at her but I keep my head hide in her stomach.

(Dhruv, look at me. It's me Aditi. You. friend.)

"Dhruv, please." She begged to me and I can hear the pleading in her voice.

With a lots of difficulties I pull out my face from her stomach and looked at her. Her beautiful eyes filled with tears but there were only concern in her eyes instead of pain. I blinked many times and touch her cheek to confirm if she is real or my mind again playing with me. She hold my hand and kissed on it then I believe, indeed she is with me.

She made me stand on my feet with lot of difficulties and rub my both hands. She took her dupatta and wiped the sweat from my forehead.

"Take a deep breath." She said while doing it herself and I followed her instructions and started taking deep breath.

Inhaling and exhaling.

"Think about something you like and the best moment in your life." She instructed me and I started doing what she said.

My mind bring back to me to my childhood when I meet Yash for the first time and how we both become best friends than my mind started playing the images of Aditi and me when first time I saw her in her terrace, all damped in rain but looking gorgeous in red. When first time she hugged me and I took her in my arms when she fall from the kitchen's slab.

How we met again after eight years. My mind bring me back to yesterday and the images of me kissing her started playing in my mind, calming my heart and soothing it. I again found the light in the dark tunnel and she came to me to take me with her breaking all the walls of that dark tunnel.

I keep doing it until my mind get calm. I didn't notice Aditi was standing with the small water bottle.

"Here take this you feel better." She gave me the water bottle and I took it from her. I gulped down all water like I was thirsty from ages and throw the bottle in trash can.

"You okay?" She asked in concern and I nodded my head as Yes.

"Wa...was tha...tha..."

"I am suffering from PTSD. You just witnessed my panic attack." I know what she wanted to ask so I said it without any hesitation.

she shared many weak moments with me and I am glad I just shared one with her. From years I suffered all the panic attacks alone but this is the first time when some one was with me and helped me to get out of it. Someone hold me in their arms when I was feeling weak emotionally.

"I am sorry, I should not....Do you want to talk about it?" She hesitate.

I shook my head, "May be some other time. I am not ready for it." I speak honestly.

She nodded her head in understand and I was glad that she end the topic there. I so wanted to hug her and hide myself in her arms but I already embarrassed myself in front of and I don't want to embarrassed myself more.

"You both are here and we are looking for you in whole building." I turn my attention from Aditi when Raghav and Shastri ji approaching us from front.

"Sir meeting is about to start. I sent Aditi to bring you but she also didn't come, so I thought to look for you by myself." Shastri ji said in his signature politeness.

"Yeah, I had caught up with the call." I lied.

"Have been caught up with call or with someone?" Raghav looked between Aditi and me suspiciously but his eyes were fill with mischievousness and lips are curling up into a smirk.

Aditi blush but I glared to him to shut his mouth or I am gonna kick his ass. But it didn't affect him, he keep his mischievous look.

"I was in a call, Raghav." I said between my greeted teeth while glaring ta him but that idiot was enjoying my situation.

"I think we should not let others waiting." Shastri ji said we all nodded our heads and started walking towards the meeting room.

But while walking Aditi drop her pen. She bent down and I heard the screeching sound of tearing cloth but I ignore it. Aditi pick the pen from the floor and was about to walk when my eyes fell on her back and the part where her suit just torn up. I can clearly see her creamy white back and the mole on her back, don't forget about the red bra she is wearing. Though it was old but it was looking beautiful against her fair skin.

I pushed away all the perverted thoughts which are coming in my mind and have to do something before anyone could see her in this condition.

I pulled back Aditi before she could walk further and hugged her from behind.

"Dhruv..." Aditi  gasped, stiffened under my hold and her eyes went wide when I snaked my arms around her stomach and pulled her closer to me as much as I could.

Shastri ji didn't notice us and walked further but Raghav did.

He turned and said, "What is going on here? Why are you holding Aditi? Dhruv, this is not the time for romance." He knitted his eyebrows.

"I am not doing the romance." I said while glaring to his direction while holding Aditi who was struggling under my hold, trying to free herself.

"Yeah, I can see that." Raghav rolled his eyes.

"Dhruv, leave me. What are you doing?" Aditi wiggling under my arms and her cheeks already turn pink.

"You go, Aditi and I join you later." I said to Raghav while dragging Aditi towards the washroom.

"Are you guys going to do that in a washroom? Kinky huh?" Raghav smirk and I glared at him to shut his mouth.

"But we have a meeting Dhruv in 15 minutes and you wanted to do it now. Can't you wait till meeting ends?" He teased me more.

"Shut up Sharma." I said between my greeted teeth and glared at him.

"Huh! What do you mean? What we are going to do in a washroom? What Dhruv wanted to do with me?" Aditi asked and looked at him in confusion  while struggling under my hold.

Thank God, Aditi is naïve and didn't understand the double meanings of Raghav's sentences.

"Nothing. He is talking rubbish. Must hit his head somewhere." I glared to Raghav but that idiot keep looking at us with mischievousness.

I dragged Aditi to the washroom when I heard him saying, "Don't forget to use protection. I don't want yo become uncle soon." He shouted.

"Fuck you Sharma." I shouted back and show him my middle finger while closing the gate after me. I heard him laughing and walking away.

"Dhruv, why did you bring me here?" She asked me as soon as I leave her and she was looking at me with concern.

"Aa.. Actually..you...your...dress..." I don't know how to tell her that her dress was torn from behind and I can see back and Bra.

"Dhruv, you okay? Do you want something? Do you want me to stay with you sometime."

Yes...

I groaned inside my mind. What the hack is happening with me? She needs my help and here I was being impossible.

I don't know if I able to tell her, i walked to her, hold her shoulders firmly and make her stood in front of the mirror but her face was facing me.

"Look in the mirror." I said as firmly as I could. She knitted her eyebrows in confusion but turn her head, look into the mirror over her shoulder. Her eyes went wide when noticed the cut in her dress. She immediately walked away from me and stood near the wall, hiding her back, leaning back to wall.

"Dhruv...I...I am sorry." Tears brim into her eyes and she looked embarrassed.

"Aditi, it's okay, It happen sometimes." I tried to console her.

"Dhruv, you should go. Meeting is about to start." Her voice shake at the end and she looked down while controlling hard not to sob in her tears.

I could not see her like this. I can't leave her like this. I am not going anywhere leaving here like this. She is my responsibility and I promised myself to take care of her. I walked near to her. I lifted her face by her chin, her beautiful orbs met mine.

"Do you trust me?" I asked while looking directly into her eyes.

"Dhruv...I..."

"Do you trust me?" I asked her again.

She nodded her head lightly and I wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. I hold her shoulders firmly and pulled her towards me.

"Do you have safety pin?" I asked her. She nodded her head and out a safety pin from her suit which she used to stich her other part of her suite and covered it with her dupatta.

I noted in my head to buy some dressed for her because what she wears they all are old and worn out but I know her she won't accept them from me. I should make any other way to buy some dresses for her.

I took the safety pin from her and slowly make her turn. Her back was facing me and I can clearly see the torn up part of her suit and that red bra she was wearing.

I put aside her ponytail and my fingers accidentally brushed to her neck, earning a gasp from her.  But when I look at her back, I wanted to brushed my fingers again on her smooth, creamy skin and don't forget about the small mole on her back which I so wanted to kiss.

I divert my pervert mind and focused on the task. The way Aditi keep safety pins with her made me think that this happens with her a lot and this is not the first time she is facing this situation but she was embarrassed that it happens in front of me and I noticed it. But I don't this she could do this alone as her suit torn from back. She surely needs someone's help to do it.

As I was putting the safety pin on her suit from the back my fingers brushed to her bra and then her back. Aditi clenched the sides of her dupatta, enough for me to know that my touch was effecting her.

But pin was seems to stuck somewhere and I could not close it in the hook. I tried many times with my hands but it wasn't get into the hook. I leaned closer to her back and closed the safety pin with my teeth, meanwhile my lips touched to her bare back and I heard the loud gasped from Aditi. My heart also skip the beat when my lips touched to her soft back.

I wish my lips could be there for more but I have to pull back but when I stood straight, I noticed her eyes were closed and she was fisting her dupatta from front to control her heart beats.

"Sorry I..."

I could not find the words but it make Aditi to open her eyes.

"It's okay..." She whispered back. I nodded my head little and continue my work.

I open her ponytail and make her long hair falling to her back. I make her turn to me and spread her dupatta freely on her both shoulders. She was looking beautiful and pretty with her red cheeks which already turn beetroot. I hold her hand and make her stood in front of the mirror. She looked at herself in the mirror and I saw satisfaction in her eyes.

"Thank you..." She whispered small thank you with a smile in appreciation and I smiled back.

"Shell we...?  We are getting late for the meeting." I said dramatically and teased her to loose the thick environment between us. She chuckled softly and nodded her head. I also chuckled and we both came out from the washroom together and thank go no one noticed us.

I am going to remember this day in my whole life.

When Aditi and I reached conference room, everyone was present there including C.M and waiting for us to start the meeting. I apologise to everyone and indicated to start the meeting. Aditi took the seat beside me and started discussing something yo Shastri ji. I looked at Raghav and he was looking at me amusingly while wiggling both of his eyebrows.

****

Meeting with CM, ends late and after meeting evening tea and snacks take more time and when finally leave the meeting venue it's already 6:30 P.M.

I checked my phone and it's already full with missed calls of mummy and Nikhil. I totally forget about the dinner with my family. I have to go there and put the full stop in all this drama once for all.

"Aditi..." She was talking to Raghav when I called her.

"Yes..."

"Come here..." I called her. She nodded her head and came to me while Raghav got busy in a phone call, probably talking to his mother as I can read his timid ass perfectly.

"Dinner...?" I asked her.

" Actually, I kinda full." She smiled sheepishly and I chuckled softly as I expected this answer from her as we just had the heavy evening snacks.

Shastri ji came to me and handed me her medicines and a glass of juice.

"Okay, but have this." I forward her medicines, she made a face looking at them and then look at mw.

I gave her a look and She understands she doesn't have any choice other than take them. She scrunched her nose while putting medicines into her mouth and I gave her glass of orange juice to gulp them. She was about to leave the orange juice in half but I put my one hand under the glass and other on her scalp to make her finish whole glass. She burped at the end and I smiled looking at her red cheeks.

"Aditi Dear, this upcoming Saturday is my wedding anniversary. My childhood held the small party for me and my wife. I already invited our office staff. Dhruv sir is also invited. I hope you also join us." He asked Aditi and I was looking at her while smiling.

"Shastri ji, I..I can't..."

"Don't worry Shastri ji. She will definitely come. I make sure of it." Before she could denied, I said yes on behalf of her. Shastri ji nodded his head and leave from there to invite other people.

"Dhruv, Aap jante hai, hum nhi aa sakte. Hum apne ghar per kya kahenge? Bua ji nhi manegi." She was looking worried.

(Dhruv, you know I can't come. What will I say at house? Bua ji won't allow me.)

"Party is on Saturday and you are forget that we have holiday on this Saturday. Don't tell your family about your off. I will come to pick you up for the party." I said and she nodded her head in realisation. I used to love weekends as I got free from work and got some time for drink but now I hate holidays as I could not see her but this weekend I had a chance to be with her other than office and the way she knew the other part of my life and handle me in my worst situation I want to be closer with her more. I looked at her beautiful face and she was busy biting her lower lip, lost in deep thoughts.

"Aditi.." She looked up to me when I called her.

"Today, Shastri ji will drop you to your house as I have to go somewhere." I don't want to let her go alone but I just got the two missed calls from mummy and Nikhil.

"It's okay, I can go alone." She said.

"No, you are not going alone anywhere. Either Shastri ji will drop you or I am coming with you." I said sternly.

"Don't worry Dhruv, I will drop her." Before she could say anything, Raghav came and snakes his hand around her shoulders. I fisted my right hand and clenched my jaw while eying his hand which was around on Aditi's shoulders. He noticed it and to make my blood more boil he pulled her closer to him while smirking at me.

"No, Shastri ji will drop her in my car." I said while looking at him.

"Don't worry, I drop Aditi in my car and also talk to Shastri ji. I also want to spend some time withy friend." He said while looking at Aditi and she playfully punched his chest.

She never did that to me?

Well, She did once but she do it with him more often.

"Dhruv, I think Raghav is right. It's already late and Shastri ji must have some work in his house as he has function in his house. Raghav will drop me." I couldn't say more as Aditi herself gave him permission to drop her to house.

"Problem solve, now bye-bye Malhotra. I'll see you direct at your house." He turned with Aditi while waving his hands dramatically to me and Aditi giggles seeing his dramatic ass.

I don't want to agree but I know she will be more safe with him than Shastri ji. I sighed and turn towards my car as I don't have any choice to go alone.
