From the Ruins (On Hiatus)

Part 9

Okay Abhira scenes today?🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No one can beat Abhimanyu's swag or cuteness! Him  exercising🔥 but then falling 🥰🤣. And refusing to let go of her hand and the way he got his shirt and shoes?🔥🔥 ladder scene and song choice were absolute perfection! Every song is a song I've listened to on repeat for days.  Bike scene was adorable. He's learned to not complain about having to ride behind a girl and to actually take advantage of the ride😉😉😉 Loved him trying to talk to her during the ride and being all cutesy! This is the Abhira I'm in love with guys! Even in this tensed problem filled situation, their dialogues and actions were so on point! Hayeee my babies🧿

Okay onto the story. Had a bit of a writer's block for this part because I felt it was a super important part of the story and didn't want to post just anything.

Don't kill me😄 Once again no Abhimanyu here. Not my fault the story runs itself.

Enjoy Reading💕

Akshara sat on the bed, her back on the head board as her eyes followed an angry Pihu stomp around the room. They had returned to Pihu's apartment half an hour ago and after the panic of being admitted at Birla Hospital wore off, Akshara finally noticed Pihu's sour mood.

"Yeh le. Dawai kha aur so ja! Teri Mimi ko bata diya hai ki aaj bhi tu yahi sone wali hai lekin kaal ghar jaana hi hoga." Pihu said blankly and turned to leave.

Akshara took her chance and grabbed Pihu's wrist.

"Tumpe yeh sada hua mood suit nahi karta Pihu. Kya hua hai?" She asked pulling her to sit on the bed.

"Tujhe kya Akshara. Waise bhi main kuch samjhau aur tu samajh jaye? Aisa toh hone se raha toh tu na apni saasein bacha ke rakh. Phir se kuch hua toh kaam ayenge." Pihu stood to leave but was suddenly pulled down again.

"Pihuuuu batao na! Dekh agar yeh attack wali baat ki wajah se hai toh main kya karu? Mere haath mein thodi na hai kuch? Ab sab kuch karne ke bawajud bhi agar puri tarah se thik nahi ho rahi hu to-"

"Please Akshara! Mujhse toh jhoot mat hi bhol! Joh tujhe karna chahiye woh toh tu karegi nahi lekin phir bhi zid karke yahan laut ayi. Kya keh kar lauti ho? Aur chupna nahi hai, apni family ke saath rehna hai? Haina? Toh mat chup Abhimanyu se aur raho na apni family ke saath! Waqt bithao, baatien karo, gile, shikwe dur karo! Tu wapas toh aagayi lekin apna dil shayad Nanital mein Dad ke saath chor aayi ho!" Pihu ranted as she stomped off and began slamming things around.

"Pihu? Pihu! Baat toh sun!" Akshara huffed out exasperated. Standing up she walked towards Pihu and hugged her, holding her still.

"Akshu chod! Chod mujhe!" Pihu struggle to free herself.

"Pihu yaar itna asaan nahi hai...koi aur samjhe ya na samjhe tumhe toh samjhna chahiye na..." Akshara turned her around and sat Pihu on the chair.

"Apni halat dekh. Meri wajah se kitna pareshan ho gayi ho. Meri wajah se Ma Baba ko chor kar yahan tak aagayi. Apne rishte, apna kaam, apne puri zindagi ko chorke, meri aage peeche ghoomti ho. Sabko pata chala toh...sab tumhari tarah strong nahi hai! Mimi ki kya halat hogi? Bade Ma, Bade Papa? Teeno iss umar mein itni pareshaani bardasht nahi karpayenge! Aur bhaiya? Sab kuch toh koh chuke hai ab main bhi ja kar bataungi ki shayad mein bhi nahi rahungi toh..." Akshara broke off as tears clouded her vision.

"Baat batane ki nahi hai Akshara! Bimari ke bhare mein nahi batana chahti toh mat bata lekin tu bhi janti hai ke teri bimari rare hai, jaan leva nahi. Jaan leva tu khud isse bana rahi hai. Akshu..." Pihu cupped Aksharas face and sternly looked at her.

"Apne dard ko inaam bana kar apne dil mein rakhegi toh dil theek kaise rahega? Dil ka bhoj halka nahi karegi toh dil kamzor hi hoga na! Mujhe pata hai teri aadat ban chuki hai apna dukh aur dard apne dil mein chupake rakhne ki, dusro ko khushi dekar unke hisse ka dukh bhi khud legi lekin iss baar teri iss harkat se koi khush nahi rahega!" Pihu stomped and started pacing back and forth.
