Feeling completely outraged by how things had turned out today, despite of all her planning to be here on this silly trip, Lavanaya took shelter in shaded corner giving a disgusted look around.
"Oh how she hated everyone here, except one person, Even he had annoyed her with his behavior today." Her eyes lingered on ASR as he brushed back Khushi's hair off her face and offered her water. Lavanya threw a hateful glance at the scene and wished for that woman to choke on that water. The entire time today Khushi had leached herself onto ASR's side and had not left him alone for a moment even.
All her desperate attempts to have ASR alone and initiate friendly flirtatious chat with him dwindled as soon she saw the entourage of friends that had accompanied on this trip. If she had known about this crowd, she would have never planned and plotted this scenario to be here at the exact time along with them. She would kill Meena later for not giving her the entire information. But for now, she was stuck in this situation.
She was feeling hot and sweaty. She was bored and miserable and very much disgusted by the turn of event. In boredom, she looked around and noticed how her own mousy sister Komal and her friend were listening to the Guide and were busy taking notes in their diary from time to time. She snorted, rolling her eyes and looked in other direction where Arnav's cousin and her husband walked arm in arm, pouting taking selfies as they posed around like idiotic honeymooners. Her irritation mounted as she noted another beautiful girl in the group who had gotten attention of Suraj MannSingh. She wouldn't have minded keeping this hunk on sideline for herself, but he was looking too involved with this new entrant in the group.
"Oh how I hate all of them." Lavanya muttered under her breath and kicked the pillar in rage hurting herself.
"Ouch!" She cried out as she felt the pain and knew that's what she wanted all of them to feel. She was rubbing on her injured foot when from the corner of her eye she saw Khushi walking to other corner of the roof which was completely isolated.
Lavanya rolled her eyes and thanked God that Khushi had at last left ASR's side. Maybe, now she can go and grab ASR's attention.
With an intention of going to seek ASR, Lavanya got up and felt a jolt as she threw a last look towards Khushi, who was walking too close to the ledge and thought."Is this woman blind, doesn't she realize that one or two steps close to the ledge and she might topple off the roof."
As she put words to that thought, a mad rush of excitement ran through her body and she felt invigorated. Standing on the sidelines, she silently cheered. " Come on Khushi, you can do this."
"Come on take one more step."
"Just one more step and you would be free."
There as Khushi took one more step closer to ledge, Lavanaya's heart hammered in her chest, she stood there totally entranced, spellbound by the thought, waiting with baited breath for that scene to unfold when Khushi would take that final step.
A mad glint appeared in her eyes thinking as she whispered. "This is it. Move now."
And then growled as Khushi stopped. "Come on move. Don't stop now. Make this your final step."
