Chapter 24: Chapter 24

Parth's POV

I had enough of her nonsense.

" Dr Isha, come to the authorities with me and let's explain everything in detail with proofs and witnesses. Let's see what happens. If you don't stay away from both of them, I will take it to authority and explain everything. They will have to see, whom they want to keep in the hospital. And I think, you are not that dumb to understand that they would not let Dr Jindal leave that easily. Let's go, We will finish this issue today itself. " I was very angry my eyes were red now.

" Get lost, go to hell !!! " She said and went away.

" Parth !! What was that ?? You need to calm down. " Siddharth said hugging me.

" Irritating, scheming woman. " I was still irritated.

" Calm down!! She is gone. " Siddharth said to me, I was taking deep breaths to calm down.

" What was that about pictures? Did you make new fake ones? " Siddharth said.

" Hmmm," I said with a smile.

" Show!! "

" Let it be... " I said.

" Please show!!! Shruti said and I looked at her and Siddharth and then showed those pictures.

" Oh, God !!! " Siddharth and Shruti said in unison. And the very next moment we burst out laughing.

I had used the same picture and created a few more changing the face of Siddharth with mine, with Tom cruise and even with a wolf, dog and tiger.

" You are really dangerous. " Shruti said while laughing.

" She created so many problems between you. Do you know, how much he has suffered ?? " I asked her. She nodded and looked sad and guilty.

" It's ok... The worst is over now. Today we are going out as a couple for the first time. " Sid said.

We had our lunch and I went back I still had to ask Riya to come for the welcome party.

But as soon as I reached my department, I saw her and Kunal together.

I don't know why but I wanted to take out all my anger on him by using him as a punching bag.

" Kunal, have you finished everything I asked you to do?? " I asked glaring at him.

" No, sir!! I was doing just that." He said.

" I don't think, I told you to fool around with the girls, just do your work or I will detain you here for the whole night. You are here to work and learn about this field, not to fool around. " I threatened him.

" Dr Riya, don't waste time talking with fellow doctors. I thought you were responsible... Use your time to learn something, look at Disha, she is always trying to learn something or the other. Perfect behaviour for an intern. " I said to her, I didn't want to... But could not control myself. She just nodded but didn't look at me.

I needed to talk to her. But she seemed to have become very serious. She opened a book and started reading it and kept reading it for the next one hour. I went near her to ask her about the party but she ignored me.

I was standing near her and since Kunal and Disha were taking samples, I asked her what was she reading, but she just showed me the cover of the book.

" Good book!! You must read it. Very good!! " I said but she still didn't say anything.

" Umm... Er... Actually, I wanted to ask you if you would like to come to the welcome party with me tonight?? " I finally asked.

Ahhh!! Finally, I asked her, took a deep breath. But she didn't say anything.

" Riya?? "

" Yes, sir?? "

" You didn't answer my question?" I said looking at her.

" Oh, you were asking me that?? I thought you were asking Disha. After all, she is perfect and why would you like to go out with a clumsy and irresponsible girl like me?? " She said.

" Riya, I am... Sorry. I didn't mean... " I was saying but she spoke before I could finish my sentence.

" I know what you meant. But I think you should ask someone perfect to go to the party with you. I am not the right person. In fact, you should take Disha with you, I am very clumsy, you should stay away from me. I may embarrass you in front of your friends. Excuse me, please! " She said and a tear rolled out of her eye and before I could say anything, she went to join them.

Oh God!!!

I should not have said that. Now she was hurt. She remained with them all the time giving me no chance to talk to her.

********

It was evening and she had not even looked at me once, since I asked her. Everyone was leaving as they were excited for the party tonight. I was waiting for them to leave so that I could ask her again.

But Riya seemed to be in a hurry. She excused herself saying that she needed to go out with her friend and left before I could say anything.

I went after her and she was still in the corridor when I stopped her.

" Riya, wait!! Why are you avoiding me?? " I asked.

" No, sir! Why would I do such a thing?? "

" Listen, I am sorry... I was annoyed with someone else and Kunal when I saw you talking to him. I said all those things. I didn't mean them, just wanted you to stay away from him. " I said and she nodded but still didn't look at me.

" Say something!! Please come to the party with me. " I requested again.

" I am sorry, sir... I just accepted someone's invitation. Someone imperfect like me. He doesn't make fun of me or scolds me in front of everyone. But thanks for your offer, I don't feel comfortable going out with someone so perfect like you. I may embarrass you as well as myself. I think you can still ask Disha, she is a nice girl. Perfect for you as a date. " She said and again her beautiful eyes were filled with tears.

" Riya!! Please listen, I didn't mean that... " I said but she ran away.

You are perfect... perfect for me.

I was feeling very bad and came back home. I didn't want to go to the welcome party now but Sid needed my support. So I got ready.

I went out to see if she had come back, wanted her to know that I wanted her to come with me. She might be clumsy and irritating but I still wanted her.

I felt that I had hurt her... But where was she?? Why hadn't she come back yet??

She said she was going to the party with someone imperfect like her. Who was he??

I was getting very uncomfortable at the thought.

Who could be that imperfect man??

Kunal?? No!!!

It can't be him... I will kill him if Kunal had asked her.

I was feeling something like indigestion and was getting very uncomfortable.

Why does he always roam around her?? Today I would definitely break his jaw.
