“I know the route. Don’t irritate me. You can leave” ra yelled when Alex was following her like a puppy.


    “That’s why I am saying. Get into the cab. I will drop you” Alex replied as he carefully walked beside her having his stick.


    “When needed you didnt even bother to check my safety. Now I don’t need your any kind of help” her words were very rude as she walked fast without even having any eye contact with him. She doesn’t want to be with him. Every second she is spending with him reminds her how she was thrown out that day. Alex looked away not wanting to argue with her for anything. Why did she have to voice out like everything is because of him?


    “Don’t try to divert me. Get into the cab, dammit” Alex yelled loudly but ra is nowhere to listen to his words. Alex took his phone and yed the audio file that he always uses to start a romantic moment with her. But today it will be useful to put some sense into her brain.


    The dog barking sound screeches the silent street as ra halted her steps. She looked around to find the dogs but the audio gets deeper making her stumble back till her back touches his stoned chest.


    Alex changes the file and yed another dangerous tone where the dog barking sound seemed very real and that made ra turn abruptly with a scream and she hugged him closing her eyes. He didnt expect this for sure. Looking at her petite frame, he trembled a little and cursed himself for such a n. He stopped the voice note immediately and felt her calming down a little.


    ra pushed him suddenly realising her actions. Why does her day have to be so bad? Alex fell with her slight push because of his misbnce. He cried out in pain startling her.


    “Oops, did it hurt?” She pleaded to realise the situation. She didnt mean to push him hard but seeing him in pain didnt go well with her. She sat beside him in the middle of the road as she slightly massages his back and helped him to sit beside her.


    “If this is what you want to have a ride with me, let it be it” Alex mocked all annoyed making her sigh. She stood up helping him too. Both sat inside the cab where the driver was waiting patiently for their fight to getpleted.


    The drive was silent till Alex notices the driver adjusting the mirror just to see ra. He grits his teeth and looked at ra who is not at all aware of anything.


    “Mam. Where is your home?” The driver asked breaking the silence?


    “Can’t you just drive? What is the need to know her address?” Alex is irritated with the smile of the driver while he asks ra.


    “Are you dumb?” ra asked Alex to which the driverughed silently.


    “How will he drop me if he doesn’t know my address?” ra asked little irritated with his actions.


    “He doesn’t have to drop you. I will drop you” Alex defended his actions.


    “Sir is little possessive towards his girlfriend. Everyone would be like that. No issues. You just direct me the way” the driver interrupted them as both went numb with his words.


    “I am not an idiot to be his girlfriend” ra retorted.


    “And I have standards dude,” Alex replied with a huff.


    “Of course. I can’t match his standards at all.” Her words made him snap turn to her side. He is hurt by her words. But not that she used suchnguage. Those were the words he spoke to her in anger. Did it hurt the same way to her that day? Did he go overboard?


    “By the way, the road is there. Why are you looking at me?” She yelled at the driver making him gulp in fear. ra looked like a doll but her voice and words were extremely rude and arrogant.


    “Can youe early tomorrow? I have a meeting by 8 and before that, I want toplete your treatment.” Alex asked politely once ra got down from the cab. She didnt reply but just looked as if she woulde. Alex didnt like her attitude at all. Why does she have to behave like everything is because of him?


    *****


    “You don’t have toe daily to drop me. I can manage.” ra doesn’t like to disturb anyone for her work. But Jason is Jason. He doesn’t take orders. He does what he feels right. And he wants to be with her for at least in the morning drive.


    “Don’t give importance to yourself. I am noting with you for you. It’s just, your workce has a gym and I can see some stylish girls on the way back to the hospital.” Jason shrugged off casually as he started the bike when ra climbed behind him. She is thankful as she doesn’t need to wait for the bus which has no perfect timing.


    “Thanks a lot, Jason,” ra smiled at him.


    “We are friends and I don’t prefer if you thank me for everything” Jason is a little offended. She always maintains a formal rtionship with him whereas she too knew that he is the one who cares for her next to Alina.


    “Hey” Jason called her as she turned to his side.


    “Why did you forget it from your home?” He asked seriously making her frown.


    “What?” She has no idea of what he is talking about.


    “How many times have I warned you not to forget that?” He asked with irritation.


    “Jason, stop it. I am alreadyte.” ra knew one thing Jason can not be serious about anything.


    “Fine. If you want I can lend you that” Jason spoke as she crossed her arms.


    “Fine. What is that?” She asked?


    “Smile” he smiled sheepishly and this time, ra couldn’t hide her smile as it glowed under the morning sunlight. She hides her face with her fingers but her smile was so natural that no one can take their eyes off her. But what she didn’t notice was those chocte brown eyes staring at her with the same intensity.


    What is there tough at? Alex didn’t like the way ra is smiling with Jason. Seeing her smile after a long time made his heart pound but knowing that it’s not because of him made him mad.


    “Enough of your nonsense.” ra walked towards the entrance.


    “Evening I will be here to pick you up. So wait for me” Jason screamed and that made Alex break the ss he was holding.


    *****


    “I am sorry. I amte” ra apologised as she saw Alex already got ready to go to the office. It’s past 8 o clock.


    “Of course, you should be. We don’t pay you for you to enjoy” Alex didnt mean those but his words flowed like a volcano. ra can sense the irritation behind his words and she smiled again looking at his grumpy face.


    “Fine. You can attend your meeting or whatever. I am going to check on your dad.” ra turned to leave the room but Alex grabbed her hands which made her fall over him instantly.


    “I didnt ask you to leave now. Treat me first” Alex stressed every word. ra pushed him instantly.


    “I am not Indian serials heroine for you to grab me every time you get angry. Next time you touch me, I won’t think twice to cut every vein in your body” ra pointed her forefinger at him making him stumble back automatically.


    “I am not your ve to take orders. Now I am in no mood to do your treatment. Come to me when I have the patience to at least look at you” ra threw the file over the bed and left the room swiftly making his eyes wide. She was smiling just before and now she is in a foul mood even to see him. Alex breaks his phone in anger.

    Precap:


    “Party? Wow. I will be there early” ra eximed. Alex rolled his eyes at her words. When did she start liking parties and all? ra never liked being in the crowd.


    “Of course, I have a pair toe with” Her words made him snap turn to her side. Of course he is jealous. Jealous that she has moved on easily. Jealous that she forgot everything about them. Jealous that nothing matters to her anymore. Jealous that he is still stuck in past.
