It Was Always You

Past Part 36

'Arjun! Arjun wait up...!' Jai calls Arjun while jogging towards him as he was about to open his car's lock

'I have to go somewhere... Let's discuss work tomorrow...' Arjun says opening the car's door, which Jai angrily shut, glaring at him

'What the hell...' Arjun says irritated, but then stops seeing Jai's annoyed face

'What makes you think that you can behave with Naina like that?' Jai asks

'Like what?'

'Like a damn toy, with whom you can be loving at one moment and throw away like a garbage the very next' Jai glares at him

'What are you saying, Naina isn't a toy for me...!'

'Then what is the possible explanation of your outburst, she just got you an impossible deal, and you insult her like that...? What's wrong with you?'

Arjun who already realised his mistake, was filled with guilt now

'I...'

'Sycophant ! Like really ? you think Naina is some kiss ass, who will flatter people just for the sake of her benefit...? I thought you know her better than that!' Jai exclaims

'I know I chose wrong set of words...'

'You seriously think you did nothing wrong ! She made no mistake today, Do I ever stop you from scolding her if she's at fault?' Jai scolds him and Arjun sighs looking down

'It's not her mistake, I was annoyed with something else and took it out on her...' Arjun confesses

'What made you mad ?'

'I... I can't tell you that' Arjun stammers

'I know what made you mad ! It was Vikram getting close to her isn't it ?' Jai raises his brows

Arjun was shocked with his accuracy, but too scared to admit it, because of Naina's reaction when Rads tried to set her up

'Nonsense Jai!' Arjun huffs looking away

'Arjun accept it already please, don't complicate things like these okay... Or who knows you'll end up ruining her life, because you were too coward to confess !' Jai exclaims

Arjun went silent on this, he knew Jai was speaking truth, he was so embarrassed  that he couldn't look Jai in the eye

'You cannot stop her from seeing other men, and simultaneously not date her as well, because accept it or not, if you don't do anything, someone else will, and that is for sure !'

'Hey! I am not....'

'You are ! Okay, I can see it...' Jai shuts him

Arjun took a deep breath and massaged his temples, Jai lifts his hand from the driver seat's door handle, giving him access to open it, Arjun sees this and opens the car's door

'Today our families are meeting for dinner at my place, you better apologise to her'

'Fine!' Arjun sighs and gets inside the car

'What about confessing your feelings ?'

'There are no feelings Jai...' Arjun says starting the car

'Who are you trying to fool !' Jai exclaims as Arjun drives his car out of the parking lot

'Myself I guess...' Arjun mutters to himself

It's wrong to have feelings for your best friend ! Naina should never know that I have a stupid crush on her since childhood
