With Them..💟✨️ (Completed)

Chapter 54

Anaysha's heels clicked on the asphalt as she walked alongside Ayaansh, the dim street lights casting long shadows behind them. The sweet scent of blooming flowers wafted through the air, a stark contrast to the tension building between them.

"I need to tell you something," Ayaansh said, his voice low and serious, his eyes scanning the parking lot as if searching for an escape route.

Anaysha's curiosity piqued, she turned to him, her eyes sparkling like diamonds in the dim light. "What is it?" she asked, her voice tinged with a hint of concern.

Ayaansh hesitated, his eyes darting around before settling on Anaysha's face. His jaw clenched, and he took a deep breath before speaking. "I lied to you earlier," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Anaysha's brow furrowed, her eyes narrowing as she tried to process Ayaansh's words. "What do you mean?" she asked, her voice laced with a hint of accusation.

Ayaansh's shoulders sagged, his eyes dropping as if unable to meet Anaysha's gaze. "I told you I had a surprise planned, but that was just a cover. I wanted to give Sarthak and Arushi some space."

Anaysha's eyes widened, her face falling as she realized the truth. "Why? Why did they need time together??" she asked, her voice trembling with emotion.

Ayaansh's expression turned somber, his eyes filled with a deep concern. "Because....you know  Sarthak has feelings for Arushi. And I think she needs to figure some things out." He said hesitated palpable in his voice.

Anaysha's face twisted in frustration, her eyes flashing with anger. "You should have told me," she said, her voice rising as she struggled to contain her emotions. "Arushi's already in a toxic relationship. She doesn't need Sarthak's feelings complicating things."

Ayaansh's eyes dropped, his shoulders sagging in defeat. "I know. I'm sorry. I just didn't want to hurt you or Arushi. But why is she still saving the relationship if it's toxic."Why do you think Arushi is still holding on to this relationship?" Ayaansh asked, his brow furrowed in concern. "She deserves so much better than Vihaan. What's keeping her from leaving him?"

Anaysha's eyes dropped, her voice barely above a whisper. "I think it's fear. Fear of being alone, fear of not being loved, fear of starting over."

Ayaansh's expression turned thoughtful, his eyes filled with empathy. "And what about you, Anaysha? Why are you still invested in saving this relationship?"

Anaysha's gaze met Ayaansh's, her eyes shining with tears." I too dont want to save it ayaansh but its just something i could not anything about it. I saw her fears and that make me afraid."

Ayaansh's face softened, his eyes filled with admiration. " Anaysha. But sometimes, you have to let people find their own way. You can't save everyone."

Anaysha nodded, a small smile on her lips. "I know. It's just hard to watch her go through this."

*************************************

Here on the other side Sarthak had already left while Arushi was still standing there. Tears rolling down from her eyes as she was too broken to stand up. She opened the front door of her car and took a swat in it.

She took out her phone and texted the same number fir hundredth time. It was vihaan's number. Sge had already sent him many texts voice messages and even called her but he had nit responded to anything.

She was about to call him again but just then her gaze fall on anaysha and ayaansh who was approaching her together with a smiling face.

She came out of car. Her face changed to a smiling one but of course her usual charm was lost. Anaysha felt a pang in her heart seeing her friend like that.
