( Bhai, are you okay?)
" Yes, beta, I am absolutely fine. You tell me? Did anyone bother you? Is your head hurting? Did you cry a lot? Should I come to pick you up? Will you come?"
Jaydev bombarded her with questions that Pakhi couldn't help but to chuckle slightly.
" Did you eat anything?" she forwards a question at him instead.

Pakhi widened her eyes, realising they've addressed each other with only cursing, disgusting words till now.
" I will claw out your eyes if you troubled my sister."
Aryan chuckled, " you are still taking it wrong, my dear friend."
Pakhi felt his eyes on her and he continued while staring at her.
" I can never hurt her. I love her."
She turned her gaze to a side, shifting uncomfortably in her place, not knowing how he fell in love with her when she never ever met him.
