Chapter 67: Chapter 67
It's been twenty days since the Rhino had an accident. Calista spoke to Rhino on the phone only once a day since then. That too just so that Rhino can be assured that nothing happened to Calista and she was fine. After seven days, Rhino was released from the hospital. He was currently at his father's house. Everyone brought him there from the hospital with force. Rhino is quite healthy now. Now he can walk properly. Although his body is fine, his mind is not at all fine. He is almost crazy not being able to see Calista for so long. He is not seeing or talking to Calista. He does call her but Calista does not answer. Lately when Rhino calls her, he finds the phone is switched off.
Rhino called Calista but her number was still switched off.
"Has something happened to her? Is she really okay?" Rhino murmured.
Rhino's head was bursting with tension.
Everytime Rhino asked Edith, Harold or Ezlyn anything about Calista, they did not answer him properly. They always just say something lame. Sometimes they say that Calista had an exam, and sometimes they say that she had problems at home, so maybe because of some reason she couldn't come to university. Well, what will they say to Rhino? They themselves did not understand why Calista was doing this? So they were saying various things to Rhino to keep him calm. But none of these words can calm Rhino's mind now. There will be no peace in his mind until we see his Calista. Rhino wanted to go to Calista's home many times to meet her but even that was not possible for the people of his house. No one allowed him to leave the house because he was sick. Now how will they understand that not seeing Calista was more difficult for Rhino than the pain of the body. A day is like a year to him.
Today, Rhino was heartbroken. He will not listen to anyone else today. In any case he will go out today to meet Calista. Rhino will not be able to stay without meeting Calista even for a moment. That's why he got up early and got ready to go to university. Everyone else did not dare to say anything today in front of Rhino's insistence. Everyone agreed. As Rhino was now quite healthy so everyone didn't stop him. And also Harold reassured everyone.
"I will take care of my brother. Don't you worry. I will stay with him."
Everyone agreed with Harold's words.
-----------------------------------------
Calista was walking on the road to the university. Rhino still sent a car with a driver everyday for Calista. But she did not get into the car. Because she didn't want any benefit given by Rhino. She Couldn't be so selfish. Only she knew how she was spending these days. Calista's life had become more full of disgust than before. Meanwhile, her stepmother had also come home. Calista was also suffering from the pain of not being able to see Rhino. But even with a thousand hardships, she stuck to her words. She stayed away from Rhino. But she inquired about Rhino from Ezlyn everyday. Ezlyn asked her for a long time why she was doing this. After a lot of pressure, Calista finally opened up to Ezlyn and told her that she was doing it for Rhino's good. Hearing everything, Ezlyn tried to convince Calista that what she was thinking was wrong. She should not do that. But Calista sticks to her word. Calista also made Ezlyn swear to her not to tell Rhino about these things. Ezlyn couldn't take Calista's pain anymore and gave up.
Calista was walking, avoiding the car that Rhino had sent for her. But a car suddenly stopped beside her. Calista was a little nervous and took a step back.
A boy stuck his head out of the car window and said, " Where are you going Calista?"
Calista said with a fake smile, "I'm going to university."
"Oh well, that's where I'm headed too. Let me drop you off."
"No no, you don't have to worry. I can go by myself."
"Hey, what's the trouble here? I am going there too. And even so, there is no conversation with you for a long time. We can talk a little on this occasion. Now get in the car without saying much."
Calista nodded her head and sat in the car.
The boy said again, "How are your days going? And how is your university going?"
Calista answered with a fake smile, "My days are going great and the university is going well."
"Hm. It's been a long time since you've visited home. Come home and go for a walk sometime."
" I will go one day. Well how is uncle? I haven't seen my uncle for a long time."
"Dad is fine. In fact, dad has some important work to do. That's why he is out of town now. You didn't see him for this. Maybe he didn't have time to tell you."
In this way, they reach the university in the midst of a few words. The car stopped at the campus ground. Calista opened the car door and got down. The boy also got down from the car and stood near Calista.
Then he smiled and put his hand gently on Calista's cheek and said, "Okay then, see you later. Have a good day."
Calista forced a smile and nodded her head, "Yeah, I'll take your leave now."
"Hm okay."
After saying this, the boy left with the car. Calista let out a sigh and headed towards the class. She did not notice that someone was looking at them with fiery eyes. Rhino was standing on the balcony of the second floor of the campus, watching everything from above and fuming with anger. Rhino was upset with Calista. Because she hadn't met him for once after his accident. Today he came to meet Calista after so long but at that moment, seeing Calista with someone else, Rhino's anger increased. Calista was walking towards her class. Suddenly someone grabbed her hand through an empty classroom door and dragged her inside. Then he closed the door and held Calista to the wall with both hands. Calista was very nervous because of the suddenness. She stood with her eyes closed.
"Who was the boy?" The man asked.
Hearing the familiar voice, Calista opened her eyes and looked ahead. Suddenly, seeing Rhino, Calista was shocked. She looked at Rhino with surprised and meditative eyes. Calista was very happy to see Rhino healthy and strong.
In the midst of Calista's thoughts, Rhino again looked at Calista with fire in his eyes and gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you not talking? Who was the boy? Answer me damn it."
Rhino's words made Calista dizzy. And she also remembered the reality.
Calista thought to herself, "I must not be weak. You have to talk to him firmly. So that he will move away from me by himself."
Thinking about this Calista looked at Rhino with some courage in her heart and said, "Whom are you talking about? And why? Why do I have to tell you the boy anyway?"
Rhino was a little surprised to hear Calista's answer. At the same time, there was a lot of anger towards her.
Rhino clenched his jaw and said angrily, "Calista, answer me what I've asked. I am already very angry don't anger me even more. Tell me quickly who is the boy? And how dare he touch you?"
Calista was very afraid, but she did not let Rhino understand that.
Calista said trying to free herself, "Leave me alone. I'm being late of my class. And I am not obliged to answer any of your questions."
