Chapter 6

*Unedited*

Madhu and Rishab came out of the room and Madhu tried to move toward Khushi but stopped when she realized that Rishab was still holding her by her and he seemed unaware of it. Anjali also noticed this. 

Anjali: Rishab, you both are out of the room and she is not going to be hurt. (points towards his hand)

Rishab automatically flings his hand back and looked the other way.

Arnav: But how did you got locked in? 

Madhu: I was searching for the washroom and got lost. 

Anjali : (to Rishab) I am sorry Rishu. The door will be fixed by tomorrow morning. (to Madhu) You're okay?

Madhu: Yes. 

Arnav : (to Rishab) And where is your phone? 

Rishab: I gave it to you bone head!!! 

Arnav: Oh shit! Sorry I forgot because of her (points towards Khushi) 

Khushi: Me? Don't you have any manners? Instead of thanking me, you are blaming me!! 

Arnav : Listen you... 

Anjali : (cutting them in between) Cut it !!! Enough for today, now let's go downstairs. 

Arnav: Excuse me, I have to make a call. Everyone proceeds downstairs but Khushi stays back with Arnav. 

Khushi: Listen I wanted to say something. 

Arnav: Now what?

Khushi notices a big fresh cut on his hand which he might have gotten while breaking the door. 

Khushi : (pulls his hand) That you are a jerk!! 

Arnav: What the?? She then takes out his handkerchief from his pocket and cleans the wound. 

Arnav : (grumbles) I can manage myself. 

Khushi: I know (hands handkerchief to him) but don't close your fist. It will only make you bleed more. And by the way...thank you.

She gave a small smile and went downstairs. But that smile affected Arnav in a big way. That night all four of them were awake due to a hurricane of emotions in their hearts. 

Next day

Madhu was coming out of the library when she bumped into someone. But this time it was not Rishab but Yuvraj. 

Madhu : (thinking) Oh god!!! Please send someone to get me rid of him. 

Yuvi: Hey Madhubala. 

Madhu: Hi.

She started to walk off but he blocked her way. 

Yuvi: So I didn't see you at the party yesterday. 

Madhu: Hmm...I was...

Yuvi: No need to tell me..I know you are waiting for my party. But don't worry it will be soon and much bigger than those newbies. 

Rishab, who was listening to all this decided to cut in between.

Rishab: Please do invite me too. 

Yuvi: I will surely.

Madhu was trying hard not to look at Rishab but he was constantly staring at her. Yuvi was getting irritated by all this. He wanted Madhu to be his only. 

Yuvi: So what about a coffee Madhu?

Madhu: Err... maybe next time I have to discuss something with Rishab. 

Rishab: Oh yes I forgot. Here it is (he hands over a small clutch to Madhu) you left it on my bed yesterday. (emphasizes the word 'BED' ) 

Madhu gets what he was trying to say. She opens her mouth to clarify but someone beats her to it.

Yuvi: Bed?

Rishab: Yes on my bed. (smirks) She was in my room last night. 

Yuvi : (to Madhu) You didn't tell me.

Rishab: Why should she? It's a little personal, isn't it? (winks at her) 

Madhu: Excuse us. 

She grabs Rishab's arm and drags him to the corner. 

Rishab: Woah slow down. Do you like it rough?

Madhu gives him a stern look which silences him. 

Madhu: Why did you say all that? 

Rishab: What? I only said the truth. You were with me in my bedroom(comes a little closer and whispers) the only difference is that people don't know what happened inside. 

He then walked away. Madhu fumes in anger. Why the hell did she ask god to send someone to save her from Yuvi? The next day it was a holiday. Khushi was still sleeping but Madhu went to the temple. Anjali also went at the same time and saw Madhu there. She decided it was the right time. Anjali saw Madhu coming out of the temple and faked a sprain in her ankle and screamed out loud for her to hear. 

Anjali: Aaahh!

Madhu rushed towards her and recognized her as two devils' angel sister. 

Madhu: Are you okay? 

Anjali: No, my foot hurts.

Madhu: You came here with someone? 

Anjali : No i am alone. Will you please drop me home? 

Madhu : (A little bit hesitant) Okay. 

Madhu takes Anjali to their mansion. On their way home Anjali asked Madhu about her and her hobbies. She indirectly tried to tell her about her brothers (mainly Rishab). When Madhu reached Raizada mansion Anjali didn't let her go and asked her to come inside. The living room was splendid like the one in the movies. 

Anjali: I am going to Nani, will be back just in a second. In case you need anything just call for the servants. 

Madhu nodded. Anjali went to Nani's room. Just then bingo arrived and he started playing with Madhu and wagged his tail every time she called his name. Then suddenly he picked up her small bag lying on the table and rushed upstairs. Madhu went behind bingo but he didn't stop. In fact, he did but in the guest room where Rishab was asleep. He had shifted in the guestroom till the door of his room was repaired. The lights were turned off, the curtains were tightly drawn and even the door was not locked. So Madhu thought it to be empty. she went inside and saw bingo standing there with her bag in his mouth. Suddenly he dropped it on the ground and ran away. The room was faintly lit and Madhu was a little afraid of the dark. But she gathered courage and went inside and picked up her bag. She tried her best to make minimum noise. But Rishab was disturbed. He had noticed someone in the room. First, he decided to turn on the light but that would make the thief alert. So he slowly went behind the thief. Madhu had already sensed someone behind her but as soon as she turned back someone grabbed her and pinned her to the wall. 

Madhu screamed HELP!!!!!
