Vicious Best Friend

16. Inayat

Coming back home is something I didn't ever want . I had to convince dad so much to let me move out with friends and even Zara's mom helped me convince my parents but then again life is unpredictable. I ring the bell and a househelp opens the door. She greets me and I smile .

"Madam , Inu mam is back " she calls my mom who walks downstairs dressed in a very beautiful orange coloured dress.

"Inu ? How are you hon " she hugs me and I return it with an even tighter and warm hug.
"I missed you mom "

"Aww I missed you even more my baby, but how come you are back so soon ?"

"I don't ever want to go there mom " I speak as tears pool in my eyes .

"What happened? Did anyone troll you ? Why didn't you call us " she cups my face.

"No , there is nothing like that mom , I just couldn't stay there , one year and I'm already crying, please keep me here " I hold her hand and she tucks a strand of hair behind my ear.

"But you said you were thinking about admission in IMU "my dad comes downstairs. He's dressed in an Italian cut suit and his hair are neatly swept back .
"I even sent you fifty lakhs for The admission "

"Dad-- I can't stay there " I look at the ground and he voices " I told you Inayat , there are colleges here which have the best quality education but you had to go with the other girls far away from home "
He comes in front of me and I still look at the ground. Soon he hugs me and I break down in tears .

"Calm down , you should stay here now and focus on your career. I'll take care of the rest " he smiles and I nod .

"I'll be upstairs" I walk towards my room but then I recall something so I turn around and speak "mom , if anyone calls me just tell them I'm not here "

"But why "

"Please mom, they'll want me to come back but I'm not gonna go so please" I speak and she nods along with dad. When I get inside my room and turn on my phone it's filled with thousands of texts from everyone and also from that number .

Unknown : I didn't tell you to go away from the university campus so that they keep looking for you or waiting for you. I want you to cease to exist . You bitch .

I lay on my bed and close my eyes after throwing my phone aside. Ishu says if anyone hates you it is because they hate themselves first.
I wonder who that person is and how much hatred can he contain in his heart that he want some girl to die.

I don't even know what I ever did to someone like that . I lock my door and draw the curtains , turn on some music and walk inside the bathroom . While washing my face tears stream down my cheeks and I keep washing them away.

I want you to cease to exist . You bitch

She's so helpless
Zara's maid
Zara's sidekick !
Look at her
A guy like him deserves so much .
He is a mafia prince and you on the other hand are A pawn
why don't you just die .
she's just a pawn .

Sidekick, sidekick, sidekick .

Die , die, die , just die .

"Shuttt up !!!!! Shut up shut up shut up ! Shut the fuck up" I scream shutting both my ears with my hands but the voices won't go away .

DIE
DIE
DIE !!

DIE ....!!!!

I walk out and pick up a cutter from my stationary drawer.

One sharp, deep, cut and it will all be over, it will all end . I will be free. Free from all the misery and pain.

Don't be a looser ....!

I snap my eyes open and the cutter falls from my hands .

It's just a phase and it will pass , if it's not your fault then don't punish yourself for it .

I hold my head with both hands and sit on the floor .

I'll make everything alright .

When you don't care about your own life , you don't care about me , you don't care about any of your loved ones , then why should I care about your fucking consent.

I care , I do care about everyone that's why this step will be right for them . I am only creating problems for them Maybe.

[FLASHBACK]

"This is nonsense , seriously jahaan"

"There is logic behind all formulas in maths . You just need to understand and memorize it "

"Ughhh!! I can't . Just do it for me please " I throw the notebook towards him while he rolls his eyes .

"I won't write the exam for you, do this yourself Coco , don't be a brat "

"I'm not being a brat , this is seriously difficult "

"See , I'll tell you how to do it " he solves the entire problem in mere seconds while I look at him with wide eyes.

"How can you solve such difficult problems just like that ? "

"It is very simple , I just have to be confident"

"I can't be " I fidget with my fingers and he smiles .

"Don't you worry, I'll be always there to solve problems for you "

"But what will I do when you're not around, I mean in exams and all"

"Still, I will be in your memories or maybe in your heart too"

"Huh! You wish " I chuckle and he tickles me .

"Stop it " I giggle.

"Now do it yourself, I'll be here to stop you when you do any step wrong "

"Okay " I pick up the pen and solve the problem just like he did.

[PRESENT]

I dial a him a call but he doesn't pick it up . Then again I try but this time the call is received.

A girl voices from the other side "Zain is busy don't call him ever again because he now knows your reality "

My heart sinks and the call goes dead.

I look at the cutter and then at myself in the mirror . Now I Cleary know what to do .
