~ Chapter 2~
Movie and Chill?
_____________
"Kya soch rahe ho?"
Riddhima looked at Vansh who was lost in his own world since the last half an hour.
He sighed looking at her.
"Sapno mein nahi socha tha ki Dadi ke dimaag mein papa ko maarne ka khayal ayega. She would turn out to be the cause of my father's death."
She kept her hand on his, "Parr, Vansh, she then realized her mistake. Baad mein Vyom ko mana kardi thi but by then he had already-"
"Well, he wouldn't kill him in the first place if she didn't order him!"
He almost shouted in teary eyes. Riddhima looked at him with calm eyes. True, she never had a family, but she could understand what he's going through..
"Why are you thinking of the past? Jo hogaya woh hogaya, we can't change that. Let's think of the happy moments?"
"Like?" he asked
"Mr Roy. I took so many revenges that day!!"
"Pata hai.." Vansh smiled "Angre ne bataya tha."
"Oh yeah?"
She asked, to which he nodded and mimicked-
"Toofaani raat, asmaan andhera, aur woh budhiya apne kamre mein so rahi thi.. Isse acche mauka nahi milta usse maarne ka!!"
Both of them broke down into piles of laughter.
"Also, when you intentionally ruined her dress and the comment about the fashion sense, ohh my god, Sweetheart!!"
Vansh couldn't stop his laughter. Oh, how much he enjoyed the cat fight, chilling in the swimming pool that day!
"I did the exact same thing she did with me on the cruise."
"What?"
"Whatever. Chhodo woh sab, Mr Bansh.." Riddhima said, in that unforgettable voice, making him laugh again. The house was brightened with their melodious voice. It seemed like the walls got a life...

"What's this?"
- "Your movie and chill will be illegal without a bowl of popcorn."
Riddhima sat beside him, popping a few of the white puffed up balls of corn into her mouth.
Moving around, he tapped on a random movie he never watched.
"Hey, not that! Go back, I'll choose."
Chuckling, Vansh went back to the list of categories.
"Horror?"
"Not. At. All."
He replied in a strict voice.
Riddhima rolled her eyes. Protective already.
Here, Vansh was confused. What to watch?! Minutes passed of him trying to find a good movie. Soon, he felt a little weight on his shoulder.
Turns out Riddhima fell asleep. Grazing her hair affectionately, he gently covered her with the soft blanket that he found near the couch.
Well, with his Riddhu in a deep sleep, and her head on his shoulder now, maybe its just popcorn and chill. Vansh turned off the TV.
He took the bowl of popcorn. An evil smile broke down on his lips. Its all his now.
