Hey my lovely readers.

How are you all?

Are you all enjoying the book so far?

Let's begin with the chapter now.

Before beginning, I would like to tell you all that this chapter has slight mature content. You've been warned beforehand

Akash's POV

The dinner went in silence and when we were about to go to our flat, I heard Sid saying "can I...can I see her once?"

Siya looked at me and I nodded.

"Come" she said and we followed her to Kriti's room.

When we reached her room, she had her brows furrowed and was sleeping with parted lips.

I chuckled looking at her but when I looked at Sid, he was giving her his undivided attention.

Sitting close to her, he caressed her hair and she leaned on to his touch.

"Don't go" she whispered, trapping his hands between her cheek and the pillow when she turned to her side.

"I won't. Not now, not ever" he said and kissed her forehead.

"Punish me all you want, but please don't hurt yourself" he said and a tear rolled down his cheek.

Giving her a last look, he stood up and somehow freed his hand from her grip which was trapped between her cheek and pillow.

She stirred in her sleep but thankfully, didn't wake up.

"Let's go" he said, wiping his tears and we followed him.

After exiting the flat, Sid proceeded to our flat while I stayed behind.

"Good night" I said and kissed Siya's forehead.

"Good night" she whispered and hugged me. I instantly hugged her back.

When she didn't break the hug for a few minutes, I became worried.

Patting her back, I asked "what happened Siya? Are you all right, baby?"

She nodded, keeping her head on my chest but still didn't break the hug.

After few minutes of comfortable silence, I said "is something bothering you?"

She looked at me, still in my embrace and said "I feel guilty for the situation Kriti and Sid are in right now."  

"Not again Siya. I've told this numerous times and I am saying it to you again, you have nothing to do with Sid's behavior. It was his call to behave that way with her. Don't worry, everything will be all right" I said, caressing her cheeks.

"Hmmm" she said and leaned to my touch.

"Don't think much, just sleep properly. I'll see you tomorrow morning. Okay?" I said and she nodded.

Kissing my cheeks, we bid good byes.

Next day I was getting ready when Sid came to my room.

He was standing awkwardly and I was tying my watch.

When he didn't say anything for a few minutes I asked him "what happened?"

"Do you think it's a good idea if I go in front of her? She still must be upset" he said.

Sighing, I kept my hands on his shoulder and said "Sid, I know you don't want to hurt her more than she already is but you need to take a step towards her. Your friendship with her is already in a rough phase, don't be a coward now. If you let her go and don't put much effort this time, I am afraid you'll lose her this time, may be forever."
