It Was Always You

Past Part 13

3 years later...

Arjun's 3rd year in Boston, Naina's graduation year, Naina and Arjun Skype chat once in 10 days...

Naina's Home...

Naina is half lying on the couch with a pillow's support, her mom is cleaning the wound on her forehead, simultaneously scolding her...

'Why you always do such reckless things Naina ? See what happened !' her mom scolds applying ointment on her forehead...

Naina winced

'Your mom is right Naina, why didn't you drive carefully ? Didn't Sidharth give you proper instructions...?' her father who is wrapping bandage on her hands sighed

'He did Papa, It was my fault, not his....' Naina replied wincing

'Why she needs to learn driving anyway, Abhi is there to drop her where ever she wants !' her mother huffed

Abhi was about to affirm with his mother, when Mr. Malhotra intervened

'Raina, Girls should know driving alright ! Naina will not depend on Me, Abhi or anyone else for everything..' Her Dad said

Naina smiled at this...

'But why did she ask Sidharth to teach her, he is still a kid like her, why not Abhi or Jai' her mom exclaimed

'Maa, Jai has exams,  And I asked Bhaiyya, He said he doesn't have time for this crap, So I asked Sid...' Naina said smirking at Abhi who gulped

His parents glared at him...

'Hey ! I didn't say cra..' he began..

'Abhimanyu ! You have time to teach random girls how to drive, but not your sister ?' his mom scolds

Naina controls her laugh, whereas Mr. Malhotra dangerously looks at him

'Maa, what are you..' Abhi gulps

'Don't you deny, I've seen you teaching that new girl Nidhi a few days ago' His mother retorts

'We are going to talk about this young man, Right now !' his father declares

And Abhi looks helplessly towards Naina...

'Papaji...' Naina begins

'You go to your room Naina, your Mom will get you snacks and medicine there ' Mr. Malhotra orders her...

Naina nods and sympathetically glancing at her brother, she enters her room...

Poor Bhaiyya.... But he deserves it ! He said he didn't have time to teach me and his baby bike is more precious to him...

What is this obsession guys have for their bikes...

Even Arjun would get angry when someone touched his bike !

*Sighs*

'God I miss him ' Naina whispers sadly and lies on her bed...

Her phone beeps, showing his message on the screen, She smiles...

'Love you God ' she exclaimed

Come on Skype ! His text said

Naina quickly started her computer and walked towards the mirror checking her appearance and frowned looking at her dishevelled hair...

She combs her hair and ties them in a high ponytail, while the computer was starting...

She quickly washed her face, careful enough not to disturb her bandage, and glanced at the mirror for one last time...
