Author's POV

As soon as Pratiksha left from cafe ,hetvi immediately called kirti and asked her to take care of everything and let her know everything as she is banned from entering their house today to which kirti chuckled and agreed.

Outside,Pratiksha was searching for rickshaw when she received call from her mother to get some groceries as dadiji is coming and there should be no problems to which she agreed.Soon she reached market and started buying vegies and all the things listed by her mother.She came out of the market and was crossing the road to get rickshaw to reach home as soon as possible. As she was crossing, a car came speeding towards her and stopped just a step away from her.She was shocked,scared due to which the bag of groceries fell from her hand and all the tomatoes spilled from her bag.She soon came to her senses and was now fuming in anger .Two men got down from the car.

"Cant u see and walk woman?If u have death wish go and die somewhere else spare the road" yelled a man in the cold voice

"Hawww...! First of all can't u see I was crossing the road, i signalled by my hand to slow down but no!!u don't want to listen so what's my fault?If u r in soo hurry go from aeroplane.!"yelled back Pratiksha

She looked down to pick up her bags and saw the tomatoes were spilled from her bag.Both of them were about to get inside . Pratiksha saw them

"Ooo hello if u r so eager to go from here,than first help me and go wherever you want"ordered Pratiksha

"I don't take orders for ur kind information"snapped the man back

"As if I care 💅🏻"said Pratiksha casually

The man ordered the second man who was his PA to help the girl and finish all this Pratiksha looked at the second man.

"Oohoo jiju aap! Aap iss dusht paapi insaan ke saath kyaa kar rahe ho...!"exclaimed Pratiksha in annoyance as she recognised her jiju but was still annoyed by the other one(oo it's u jiju!what are u doing with this wicked,sinner man )

"He is my boss chhoti and why are u calling me jiju?"asked Atharva

"Aisa boss....!Ooo voh aapke ghar se call aaya thaa ki dii ko pasand kar liya hai aapke parents ne!"blurted out Pratiksha in excitement (Boss like this! Actually ur parents informed us about their readiness for marriage on call)

"Do it fast and end this drama now Atharva we r getting late" a cold voice cut them in between

"Why will he help me?!U will help me it was your mistake right"snapped Pratiksha angrily

"Excuseeeee me??"said eshank

"Sorry u r not excused right now!help me and then u r excused"said Pratiksha in sass

"Do u even know who am I?"smirked eshank taking an instant liking towards her attitude

"Not interested. I just know this much that u r the one becoz of whom my tomatoes are on the road"said Pratiksha dismissing his attitude

"Boss please"whispered Atharva

"Okay finee"exclaimed eshank angrily and then he bend down to help her and soon helped her in putting the tomatoes in the bag.

Once done he stood up and started walking back to his car when he heard her voice again

"Helloo mere tamatar kaha le jaa rahe ho ! Chalo wapas karo"accused Pratiksha (where are u taking my tomato.give it back to me at this instant)

"Excuse me miss what the hell are u speaking"asked eshank confusingly

"Truth. Ohh now I understood.mehenge ho gaye hai na tamatar isliye chori kar rahe ho"snapped Pratiksha back(tomatoes are expensive right that's why u r stealing it)

"Where the hell is -"he was cutoff by Atharva

"Chhoti kaha hai tamatar aur?"enquired Atharva in calm voice(where is tomato little one) to which Pratiksha pointed beneath the car .

A look of disbelief etched upon both of their faces .Both of them shared a look and Atharva bend down and got her Tomato back and gave it to her .

Pratiksha thanked him and went from there .Eshank kept looking at her retreating figure.

"Bhai we should leave too"suggested Atharva in small voice

Eshank just nodded his head and both of them left too .
