GULMOHAR (COMPLETED)

Chapter 20

SAANCHI
✨

'Jas...Jassi??? That's... that's you!!!' I asked to which he simply pushed his glasses back and smirked saying

'Welll...I think so too!!!' and I simply smiled and I shook his hand more but Jassi leaned more and gave me a side hug taking me by surprise. I did not see that coming.

'Well when mom said Saanchi Prabhu...I recalled the name to be similar. I mean you aren't someone anyone would like to forget! Am I right or am I right?' he asked flashing his killer smile however I could notice the way Nishchay's jaw tightened. Nishchay and Jassi kinda never went well with each other. If other word for that could be called 'hate'. Nishchay hated Jassi! Still.... hates Jassi.

'And when my aunt said Lota I didn't ever think it's you Jassi' I said and he smirked saying

'So you wanna say it was a good surprise?' he asked and I didn't really have an answer. I smiled and said

'Well I don't know good or bad but it definitely was a big shocker!!!' I said when he chuckled and took a step closer to me saying 'This is gonna be fun!!!' and suddenly I feel a crisp grip of fingers entwining against my hand. I froze and looked at my left as I notice Nishchay gritting his teeth and holding my hand tight and that's when Jassi looks at Nishchay and says

'Dont tell me you both are still dating!!! I was told you are single...Hey science boy!!!' he said looking at Nishchay who shot him a look raising an eyebrow and said

'Hi Douchebag!!!'

Ouch!!! That didn't start of quite well!!!

But the next minute Jassi burst out laughing loudly.

'Oh man!!! You are still the Mister Goody two shoes aren't you?' he asked and Nishchay took a step closer to him such that their frames almost were going against each other and he said

'And you are still the skirt chaser! If you didn't get what I told you years ago and then make sure this time let it enter your petty little pea sized brain. Saanchi isn't like any other dumb girls you were dating. She's got class and you aren't even closer to what we call as class and standard. She prefers gentlemen and you are everything but a gentleman so if you like your body parts still addressed in the order that is fit in your filthy little body! Stay away from her!!!' Nishchay warned glaring red into his eyes and I had to somehow calm him down but before that I heard a voice

'Oh my God!!! Welcome son!!! I'm so glad you could make it to the party' said Riya Pacchi and Jassi to our ultimate surprise bent down to touch her feet.

Then he pulled out a small box and offered to Riya Pacchi
'Sugarfree dark keto chocolates for you aunty!!! Thank you for having me and Happy Diwali' he wished her taking me by surprise to which Riya Pacchi patted his cheek and said

'Saanchi... I hope you met Karry... He is such a wonderful guy. I mean he is the definition to success if I could say. I mean his father was a millionaire but even then he joined as a system engineer in an organisation. In mere 5 years he was promoted to lead a team of 30, by the time he was 8 years experienced he anf his few other techie geek friends and a HR guy started their own start up organisation 'The three monkeys' and now they are all billionaires. All self made guys. I mean if there is someone who could give you a tight competition in achieving in life it had to be him. No wonder your parents thought Karry was just perfect for you.' and suddenly I feel Nishchay's grip on my hand loosen.

'Ummm..I...Ummm ex... excuse me please...I need to see Kyra' saying Nishchay excused himself and left from there without even a word. I didn't like this sudden change in his demeanor.

✨

'So...you have the most fun job Han???' he asked popping another Barfi. This was the 7th one, how much sweet does he eat? And above all where has this Nishchay gone? I was trying to look for him but he was nowhere to be seen.
