Befooled

'I wanted your love as the shelter of a tree, but suddenly I realize that the tree was just imaginary.' Vansh thought.

Just at the time when Vansh had numerous questions in his mind, Riddhima's eyes opened in that unknown place. Her face was now light red than as before.

She shouted to ask for someone's help, "Hey! Is there someone?"

Then she heard from someone in reply, "Here is your only one."

That was the voice of a teenage boy.

She heard the voice of a teenage girl saying, "You are wrong, Vansh. I am also with you. I, Sejal."

Sejal was the younger sister of Riddhima whom she had left in orphanage where she used to teach the poor children. She was good at all but now the reason for her unkindness is not known to Riddhima.

Then comes to Vansh's side. Vansh himself was looking for Riddhima then how can Sejal address him?

Riddhima's ear could focus on the only name, Vansh.

She yelled, "Vansh, you can't do it. We were going right? Wait a second, is it a surprise or a prank? See, its' not good to play with someone's emotions."

They both started laughing.

On the other side, Aangray, in a hurry, came to Vansh and said him, "I cannot stop myself to feel it more. Now, I have to take a step for my love."

"I feel no more living, but to have you as my breath is all what makes me feel alive. I could live, although not feeling alive." Ridhima thought.

Vansh was furious and worried about Riddhima. It spoiled their beautiful day, though.

He told Aangray, "But for now, I have to take a step in matter of everything. Aangray! Riddhima is lost somewhere."

Aangray replied, "But I saw her in grandmothers' room."

Vansh asked, "How?"

As we all know that Riddhima is kidnapped then, is Aangray lying? Did he really see her?

Aangray told, "Yes, I saw her in that same royal blue dress like that same picture Siya has been showing to you."

Vansh said, "If you are right, then come with me and tell me where she is."

Aangray went to grandmother's room but Riddhima was not here and to see this, Vansh thought that Aangray is maybe lying,

Vansh inquired, "Tell me, where is she?"

Aangray said, "Believe me. Wait, let me ask from grandmother." He went outside in the hall where she was sewing a beautiful dress and asked, "Grandma, tell Vansh that Riddhima was sitting in your room, helping you to design the dress."

She answered, "Yes, but why Vansh is needed to be told and what are you doing here? You said me that you are leaving."

"Faces of phases are the main cases of our Love. We have to face it, no matter what the case is because love is matter of phases of your whole life."

Vansh agreed, "Yes, I informed you but I am looking for Riddhima. She did nit come downstairs yet."

Ishaani was passing by and after hearing this, she spoke, "Bro, she is right. I saw you leaving with Riddhima. By the way, it is impossible that you have come back so early. Is everything okay between you and Riddhima?"

But Vansh refused to accept that he went with her, "Nothing happened such. Neither something which let us not be okay nor we went somewhere."

However, all other members and security guards agreed and kept on telling him that they saw him going with Riddhima in the same dress as he is wearing now and also they saw Riddhima with that royal blue dress.

Siya then confirmed, "Are you sure you haven't go somewhere?"

Vansh said, "Obviously, yes."

Aaryan, his cousin, said, "Was it your ghost?"

Vansh ignored as he always used to due to his behaviour and being outspoken. Well! You may have heard, Majority is Authority. In the sense, that if everyone was saying that Vansh and Riddhima had gone then Vansh had no other option to deny. He understood that someone is making all these plots.

He said, "Ok, I accept that I went with her, then, where is she now?"

Grandma said, "You must know it. You didn't take her back."

At the same time, he received a phone call. First, he was about to ignore but when she saw Riddhima calling her, he shall have to pick it then, "Hello, Riddhima. Where are you?"

She replied, "I want to ask the same question. Where are you? I, myself told you to wait for me until I take a bath after reaching home. I don't know why you have become so absent-minded."

"Love is not chased, it attracts to the one to be loved."

He answered, "When did you tell me? Wait, I am coming in the room."

He excused everyone. Was he befooled? This question is being asked because when he went to room, Riddhima was not there. He even looked in the washroom. He called again at the same contact number but that phone was switched off. All this made Vansh made very angry.

Although this point came in his mind that maybe Riddhima is doing all that with him. But he will not their trust to become less in any ways. He had no one to share this.

Riddhima, was very tensed and feeling insecure on the other side, "I am asking something!"

She again heard Vansh responding, "I'll advice you not to ask anything so that you will preserve your energy for the time you'll need it."

The condition can maybe like as if they both are playing with each other.

Riddhima continued, "Vansh, so was this your plan?"

Vansh was trying not to distrust Riddhima but it seemed like Riddhima's trust for Vansh was getting lesser and lesser.

Vansh replied, "Save your energy in not thinking about my plans."

Riddhima furiously said, "Why? Who are you to advice me?"

He replied, "Your love, Vansh."

Riddhima said, "It is truely said that love has so many colours, it does not stay red

forever and nobody knows when it turns black."
