I walked out of the bathroom while drying my face with a towel after removing the makeup from party .

Keeping the towel on the table I let myself slip under the cover letting myself relax after a exhausting day .

My body was tired that I could sleep within seconds but my mind it was in a whirlwind of thought .

The word Seducer roaming in my head , while all the memory's from that day , the taunts , the threats all of them came flooding back .

I thought I was fine but that stupid word again ignited those Stupid thoughts in me .

Their words they do not affect me but I am just tired , tired of explaining the things that took place that day .

I don't regret my words at all , I don't regret calling her a Night toy to her husband , I knew coming back to Jaipur means meeting these fuckers and maybe destroying my mental peace .

No stop it Ruhi , stop thinking about them you cannot ruin your peace just because of some bunch of assholes .

I shaked my head not letting her words get through me , closing my eyes I turned on the side letting myself rest .

I tossed on the bed not able to sleep while those played in loop in my head , stop it Ruhi why are you getting so affected today just because of her words calm down calm down , think of something else .

I was trying to calm myself by thinking things which would distract me until something from today's event strikes my head .

' Those green eyes , I've seen them somewhere' I whispered .

My mind went back to a event from today , Mr . Rajvansh his eyes they looked familiar .

Yes , maybe he was present during wedding but I don't remember talking or even coming across him , but still his eyes they looked familiar like I've seen them , because if I've met him then would've remembered his face but I don't , forget it Ruhi I doesn't matter to you .

I was lost in my thoughts until I realised I wasn't getting those idiotic thoughts , thanku Mr . Rajavnsh for distracting my mind .

Now I can finally sleep in peace , without those thoughts in the back of my mind .

...

' You think you can fool us , huh you bitch now let me punish you for this ' he said before dragging me by my hair

' You Think you are attractive , no You are a seducer '...
' You fucking bitch I'll kill you '
' Don't you dare come close to me , you're nothing but a stain on this family , a impurity ' ..

'NOO' I woke up screaming the my nails dugged in my palm, I looked around myself until I realised I was in my room and my phone was bursting with a call .

I took the phone while wiping the sweat from my face , it was from hospital a call at this hour means an emergency .

After disconnecting the call I Quickly got off the bed to wash away remenents of sleep , Quickly wearing my scrubs and taking my phone I hurried out of the house towards my car to head to hospital .

I didn't woke maa to inform her about my departure , she is a light sleeper and once she wakes up it's impossible for her to go back to sleep .

❥

Plopping myself on the chair of my cabin I let my back rest after a long 12 hours surgery which started at morning 4 o'clock and ended now at 3 of noon .

It was hectic without a drop of water since morning , I closed my eyes letting them rest after a 12 hours of concentration .

But it was all worth it the struggle of 12 hours is worth after the life of the patient was saved , I still remember how I cried after watching the first life being saved infront of me during my internship .

I was lost in my thoughts until a knock disturbed my train of thoughts , opening my eyes I set my posture before letting the person standing the other enter .

' Come in ' I replied letting the person enter , my eyes stayed glued to the door until Suha came in my view.

' It's you, I thought it's some patient ' I said while losing my bun and letting my long thick hair cascade down my shoulders .

' Hmm , Anil kaka just told me you were out of the OT so thought to check on you since I wasn't able to meet you since morning ' said Suha while settling herself on the chairs Infront of me .

So when did you arrive here in hospital ' said Suha while pouring a glass of water .

' At 4 of morning , it was a accident case the men needed the urgent surgery ' I replied taking the glass of water that Suha passed towards her .

' Toh soyi ki nahi ' asked Suha while playing with a pen on my desk .

' Kaha ek toh itna late pahoche or vo gawar Myra ke..' I stopped midway my sentence realising what I just blurted out .

Suha Glared at me while I closed my eyes in frustration knowing I am doomed , she'll kill me because I didn't told her about Myra .

' You met Myra yesterday ' she asked while boring holes in my skull .

Knowing i cannot hide it anymore I just nodded my head .

What did she say ' she asked .

' Nothing important ' I replied while keeping the glass back on its place .

' Ruhii ' she warned with her voice slowing down .

'Fine , she said that I should drop with my act of Being Miss . Kind and everybody knows what kind of seducer i am ' I said while revising the event from last night .

' And what did you replied ' she asked while her brows raised giving a deadpan look .

' Well I told her ...' I told her everything the event from last night and the words that I told her .

' Nice slap on the face of that shitty bitch , I am Proud of you Ruhi ' she said while giving a thumbs up to me .

'But why were you over thinking her words , wasn't it you who said that you don't give a fuck about what others say then why ' she asked sternly with the words laced with worriedness behind her stern face .

'I wasn't over thinking I was just having those Stupid thoughts ' I replied whike moving my Face sideways to avoid her glare .

' Having those Stupid thoughts means overthinking Maharani ' she scolded her words carrying her worridness towards my well being knowing that I can have my panic attack any moment .

Yes , I get panic attacks or you can say anxiety attacks because I have very bad anxiety disorder which many times leads me to take a medicine to reduce it , and when I get one I can feel my arteries going numb , my heart beating at the speed of light and my lungs cloaging making it feel like someone was strangling me , strangling me the same way he did .

' Leave it you tell me why you are here '
I said to stop her from getting worried and dragging the topic further .

'Yes , I saw you talking with Kavyansh bhai last night ' she asked her voice normal but with a tint of a tease between .

' Oh yes , I met Mr . Rajvansh yesterday night , Ragini Mam introduced him to me' I replied knowing that she was close with Ragini Mam's Family .

' Ragini Aunty introduced you ' she asked her voice laced with confusion .

' Yes , she did ' I replied not knowing the khichdi brewing in her mind .

'Okay then I'll leave , kuch kha lena subah se khaya to hoga nahi ' she said before leaving .
[ And eat something you haven't eaten anything since morning ]

❥

' Ruhi , shivi come for dinner ' shouted maa while placing the container on the Table , I moved myself out of the couch before settling on the dinning chair beside my sister while my mother sat with dad infront of us .

Serving myself with food I quickly dig in before it's turns cold .

In delhi I was used to eating the cold soggy food , because of mine and Suha work schedule many times I wasn't able to prepare food or if I did many times a sudden emergency used to come up which leads me to hurry to hospital leaving the hot food .

It's not like I am complaining but I just telling about the situation as in Delhi sometimes I used to be do tired that I ended up sleeping and skipping my meals due to which my appetite has become way to small .

' I am done ' I said drinking the water after finishing the food in my plate .

' Nahi aur lo itna kam ' said maa serving me with dal and Rice , making my eyes turn wide .

' No , maa please I am full ' I said looking at the food in my plate which was empty a second and now filled with delicious dak and Rice .

' No , Ruhi your appetite has become so small , finish it right now ' order papa making a small pout arise on my lips , I was full but there's no way I am saying no again when my other sat in front of me boring holes in my head with the look of abhi mera palta laati hu tu bas na bol .

' Fine ' I said before eating the food while my parents exchanged a suspicious glance , they've been doing it from the the moment I sat on the dinning table , I shrugged my shoulder not paying much attention to it and concentrating on my Dal and Rice .

' Ruhi ' called out mother , her voice carried a tint of hesitance while I replied with a small humm while gazing at my mother .

' We wanted to tell you something ' said my mother her face showing hesitancy while her fingers played with the spoon in her hand .

' Yes ' I replied giving a Curt nod to her showing the sign for her to continue .

' Umm Mrs . Ragini met me yesterday And she asked me something ' said Maa .

' Okay what did she say ' I replied while brows furrowed in confusion , my gaze flickering between my Parents who looked hesitant to ask me something for the first in my life .

' Umm she was asking about your marriage ' my spoon stopped at her sentence , and now I was getting the idea what they are talking about but still I gave a quick nod asking her to continue .

' She asked for your Hand for marrige with her elder son Kavyansh Rajvansh ' she said and with the completion of her sentence my mind went blank .
