Chapter 37 ~ A Privilege Of Prayers

••••

Veer's week has been hell on earth. All he thinks is Akira. He used to taunt her, insult her but never ever imagined that she could have been in a worst situation than him.

When Sameer called and said that they need to go to the hospital ASAP, he felt like all his prayers have been answered. Akira had gained consciousness and is pretty normal. She wants to meet her family, she wants to go home.

"What happened?" He asked Sameer as soon as he spotted him.

"The doctor called me and said he can discharge Akira since she revealed that she was faking madness as she needs some time alone, to think, to gain back her confidence, he pitied her and frankly speaking I'm not mad at her at all."

Veer greeted the news with elation. It would be no surprise that she needed time to recover.

As they entered the room, they saw her standing and closing her bag.

"Akira," Sameer called her name out. The moment she turned around, Veer felt like time has stopped. Her eyes landed on them. She looked lively and prettier than ever. She greeted them with a genuine smile.

Sameer signed the papers that the nurse gave him while Veer took her bag. He didn't say a word and dropped them home. At least she is safe now.

"How's Akira?" Aditi asked as soon as he stepped inside his room. Veer was startled as he didn't expect to see her.

"She looks much better compared to last week surprisingly and she's home."

Taking his shirt off, he rushed inside to wash his face and stared at his wet face thinking of Akira. There was something different about her that he couldn't figure out. But then he remembered that he had to ask her about her attackers.

"Aditi, you haven't told anyone, right?" He yelled from the bathroom.

"No, not at all, anyways Veer, I'll be glad to have lunch with your family. Your mom told me when I came but I have to go somewhere."

"That's alright, see you tomorrow."

Once Aditi had sat in her car, she texted everyone for a get-together at Sara's house. She has to tell everyone about the latest update. As soon as she entered Sarah's house, she witnessed everyone relishing on pizza and coke as if there's no trouble. Though Aditi knew she hasn't hurt Akira physically yet, she played a part in this drama.

"How can you guys relax like this? Akira is out of the hospital." She yelled as soon as she approached them.

"Though I was expecting her to stay there a few more weeks but never mind at least we avenged Veer," said Sarah proudly.

"You guys don't understand. The way Veer has rushed to save and taken care of her is too much, it's like he's falling for her all over again."

They didn't seem to be taking Aditi's warning seriously.

"Okay Aditi you need to calm down. Veer is our friend; we won't let him be trapped in her web again. We are here for him and if ever she tries to snatch Veer from us, we'll remind her once again of what we did to her in that beach house."

"Too bad you missed Aditi," said Javed cheerfully, "You should have seen her face, and she looked no less than a freaking crybaby."

"Well you guys enjoyed your part. I couldn't, she hit me with a bloody mop," uttered Danny resentfully while the group burst into laughter except for Aditi.

Ryan added, "Danny we all know that you have no experience with girls, if it was me, I'm sure it would have been great. I mean a few kisses on her lips are nothing for me, she looked quite beautiful that night though."

Sarah raised an eyebrow at him as he sipped his coke. Everyone knew that Sarah only considered her as an ugly duckling.

"I want to know one thing," said Aditi loudly grabbing everyone's attention. "If ever one day Veer finds out that it was us who had hurt her, what will you guys do?"

They all looked at each other suspiciously since everyone has played an equal part in hurting Akira.

"We'll tell him that girl needed to be taught a lesson so that she won't ever step a foot in his life again," said Sarah boldly.
