Chapter 13

Part 13

Stepping inside the room where she was living, she closed the door behind her and sat down on the floor, placing her hand just above her heart. Her heart was beating so fast it was literally banging around her ribcage. She could still feel the touch of his arms when he wrapped around her and hugged her so tightly. She could still feel the touch of his finger on her face and his hot lips when he pressed a kiss on her forehead.

She didn't want to think about all this; still, she was thinking it was all new for her, and it actually gave her some kind of peace. His alluring touch and his arms gave her peace, which no one could. Her cheeks turned a light shade of pink as she thought about all this.

"Ok Sharanya, concentrate!" she muttered and got up from the floor.

She placed her bag in its place and went to the restroom; after freshening up, she went out of the room.

She found him sitting in the living room using his phone.

Why was he so early today? She thought, and then went to the kitchen, shaking her head.

"Why is my child so happy today? What is the reason?" Nadira bi asked as she saw Sharanya stepping inside the kitchen with a smile on her beautiful face.

She began assisting her.

"Aren't you hungry today?" Nadira Bii asked, "You just came back from college?"

"No, I am full. I had a burger today," Sharanya replied.

"Sharanya Nadira Bii asked softly.

"Sure." Shaking her head yes, Sharanya walked out of the kitchen.

She found him sitting with Priyan, which meant he was back. Her eyes widened and her palms started sweating. For her, Priyan was the nightmare.

Priyanka looked up at her and gave her a smirk while she looked down.

"Ne..il sir, do you need anything?" She asked, stuttering, "I'm scared as fuck."

"So bad, Sharanya, you're asking him but not me, very bad," Priyank smirked, while Neil frowned at the way he spoke to her.

"Sharanya "Go and tell Nadira Bii to make coffee for us and you go to your room and concentrate on your studies," Neil said sternly.

"Bro, atleast let her make coffee for us," Priyank said.

Sharanya's pov.

"She is not here, Priyank, I already said it before," Neil Sir said to him while I sighed.

"Why are you standing here like a statue? Go to your room and study," he said again, but this time more loudly.

I hated his bossy nature, but this time it's for my good.

I told Nadira Bii to make coffee for them and then went to the room where I was staying.

I sighed and sat on the couch. Neil Sir saved me today, but Priyank isn't good at all. I knew he had bad intentions. The way he looked at me made me feel disgusted.

Ughh, leave this Sharanya and concentrate on your studies.

next day,

Breakfast table

Sharanya's POV.

"What happened to your forehead, Neil?" Anusha Mam asked, pointing towards his injury.

He applied bandaids to it.

Why was she asking now? Didn't she see his injury the previous night? Oh yeah, they didn't sleep together and I don't have any right to ask why.

"It's nothing," he replied, taking a sip of his black coffee.

"No Neil, let me see," she said, cupping his cheeks.

I didn't know, but I didn't like it.

Why is this sudden weird feeling inside me?

"It's fine, Anusha, just a small cut and nothing else," he said, and got up from his seat.

"I am leaving for the office and you will be on time." And he left, giving me a glance.

It was a tiring day for me. I met Maa today, then went to college by walk and then back-to-back classes, ugh.

I was walking home at the time.I found a crowd a few metres away from me. Oh shit, there was a car accident.

I walked towards the crowd and found one elderly man lying on the ground, his forehead bleeding badly.

"Why aren't you all taking him to the hospital?" I asked.

"Hello, Unc—sir, how are you?"I patted his cheeks, but he didn't reply. He fainted.

"Why are you all standing and not taking him to the hospital?" I asked, shouting.

"It's a police case, don't mess with it," said one man.

Don't you all have humanity, huh? "Here one person is in pain and you all are thinking about all this," I shouted.

I called the ambulance and sprinkled some water on his face. "Sir, please get up!" I said, and he opened his eyes.

"Sir, just keep your eyes open and try to breathe. The ambulance will be here anytime," I said.

"Fill in the form and pay, then we'll start his operation," said the nurse.

"I don't have any money with me," I said, looking down.

"Sorry miss, first you have to pay. We can't operate like this and yeah, his condition is getting serious," she said.

Good, please help me. I don't know what to do.

"How much?" I asked and the amount she said was too much for me. I just have 1200 rupees with me.

"Miss, please arrange money if you want to save him," she said, and left.

Now what to do?

I opened my bag and found nothing except Neil Sir's card; no, no I shouldn't be using his card but it's needed to save someone's life.

"Is card payment available?" I asked the receptionist. She nodded.

I did the card payment and they started his operation.

________________________

It's been 3 hours since they were doing his operation; just then my phone rang, flashing Sir's name.

I picked up the call.

"He..llo?"

"Where are you?" He asked in his sharp voice, making me shiver.

"I... ii" shittt and I started shuttering again.

As far as I know, your classes ended four hours ago and you still haven't reached home. Where the fuck are you? " He shouted so loudly that it made me flinch.

I started, "Sir, there was an---" but he cut me off, "30 mins, you have 30 mins to reach home" and he cut the call.

He was angry, so angry.

I had already paid the bills, so I walked out of the hospital and hired an auto-rickshaw for myself and told him the address.

______________________

He was checking files with whole concentration. Just then, his phone beeped with a message. He opened it and found a huge transaction. Woah, it's the same card which he gave to Sharanya. That means she finally used his card. Such a GOLD DIGGER, he thought. What did she do with such a huge transaction? Did she have any boyfriend on whom she spent all this money on?

He called Nadira Bii to inquire about her and she told him that she hadn't reached home.

Where was she? She didn't reach home until now, when he called her and told her to reach home.

But still, everything was roaming, like, where was she? From where did she get this much money? What did she do with such a huge transaction? He was always right. She is a GOLD DIGGER and always will be. He thought.
