Indu PoV:

I am at home. I remembered Akash and his behavior. Why is his behavior so weird. I hate him. If I saved him in the past, it doesn't mean, he can try to befriend me. Why is he so interested to befriend me.

"Indu, are you ok?" Mom asked me.

"Yes maa..but not exactly" I whispered lasy words.

"My dear,wat happened,Why are you not ok?"

"Maa,I have something to tell you"

"Tell me dear"

I said the whole story about Akash and his family.

"I don't like him and his behaviour. He is a bit too much" I said

"Indu, I don't think so. I think he is a good person. Being a rock star, even after that he remembered Master Will and you for helpig him. He is a humble,polite n down to earth person. He is not hiding anything from his parents and is so frndly with them. It shows that his character is also good. I am not advising you to befriend him, but I never want my daughter to comment about a person wrongly. Anyways leave it and come, have your dinner"

"Maa, you are simply superb. I love you.You are always my guide.

"Love you too baby"

Next day, I went to college. I told everything about Akash to Harini.

"Wow,Akash is a rock star..how lucky you are Indu" exclaimed Harini

"Stop it yaar.I am happy that he achieved his goal,but it doesn't mean I like to befriend him" I said seriously.

Suddenly there was a Hartal because of the murder of a Politician.I and Harini went to bus stop and came to know,buses are not coming to that area because of this stupid Hartal.

"Indu,now what will you do?How can you go to your home?" Harinu asked

"Thinking dear.how will you go?"

"I will call ur jiju (Harini's hobby)to pick me.If you didn't have objection he will drop you too"

"No dear.My home is far from your's.And as there is hartal, you have to reach your home as soon as possible"

But I can't leave you alone dear. Do one thing, use this chance to get rid of Akash. As he told if you take his help,he won't bother you,call him and ask for help"

"No way.I can't"

"This is the only way to cut his desire of befriending you.Otherwise he may contact you again.Think once Indu"

"May be you are right"

I called Akash as I had his Visiting card.

"Hello,Akash speaking.May I know who's this" he spoke from other side. I gulped once as first time I am going to ask help from a stranger.

"I am In...Indu" I whispered

"Indu? Wow, what a pleasant surprise. Actually, I am waiting for your call.So are you accepting me as your friend?"

"No.As you told you will not bother me if I accept your help,Now I need your help"

"Oh,really.I don't remember those words of mine,but its ok,tell me how can I help you? "

"If you don't remember your words then I don't need your help.Bye"

"Just a minute,ya ya,I remember my words.Tell me what can I do for you?"

"There is a hartal near my college and had no transportation facility today.So,can you pls..." I struggled to complete the words.

Being a rock star, does he agree to drop me at home? I don't think so.

"Sure Indu.Message me your college address,I will pick you" he said shocking me.

"Thank you"

May be he is really down to Earth.

He came to pick me .I sat on his bike. He is a rockstar but his dressing and everything was so simple.

"Akash, what if people recognises you? " I asked slowly.

"They can't recognise me because I am famous in North India. Only few people in South India may know me. Even if they see me, they too will be in a dilemma that whether it's me or not" he said and smiled.

"Drive slowly. You are on high speed" I said

"Why?Do you want to spend more time with me?" He asked naughtily

"Shut up" I said

He used brakes many times adding fuel to my irritation.

"Why are you using brake many times.Don't act smart" I yelled on him

"Indu,have you ever consulted psychologist? I think you need treatment" he said

What does he mean? Stupid, how dare he is to say that I am mad?

"What? Do u think I am mad?"

"Not at all.I mean I don't think.Because I am sure that you are mad"

"You"

"Yes,tell me"

"Nothing.Drive slowly and that too without using brakes"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes" he nodded.

A divider came n he didn't use brake.I almost hugged him. My anger reached to peak. I instructed him how to drive. Suddenly he stopped bike at ourskirts where there is no one. I was scared but didn't show it. He sighed me to get down and I got down from bike. He gave bike keys to me.

"Ufff..I am tired.Can you please drive?It's better to drive than advising me" he said seriously.

"I can't drive. I don't know driving"

"So pls stop advising continuously. It's difficult to drive with your continuous blabbering" he said

I looked at him seriously.

"I need something to eat or drink immediately.Otherwise I may collapse because of you.Come,lets go to that restaurant"

"No,I am not hungry.I will wait here.You go and enjoy" I said

"Why you will be hungry,already you had your lunch by eating my brain" he whispered in a tone audible to me.

"What?"

"Nothing. Are you sure you want to stay here on the road.I am not responsible if something happens to you when I leave.I am leaving" he said

How careless he is? It's my mistake to take help from this person.

"Wait,I will come"

"please, Welcome" he said with a smile.

We went to restaurant. Some one came there.

" Hey akash..how are you?after a long time. When did come from US? Is she ur wife?" that person asked Akash showing me.

"No no Deep,she is just my friend" Akash said.

"No,I am not his frnd" I said

Deep looked at Akash suspiciously.

"Then, are you my wife?" He asked making me angry.

"You..." I controlled my anger

We had lunch together and started from there to my home..Akash dropped me at home. I about to go but felt as if my dupatta was caught by someone.

How dare he to hold my dupatta? I turned back .

"What's this?" I asked seriously

Akash showed me that duppatta caught in the wheels of bike through his eyes. He helped me to free my dupatta from bike wheels.

"Now its over.You helped me and repaid your debt.So it's the end. You promised that right?" I asked

"But generally I keep promises only when I make promises to my friends" he said shocking me.

"What?"

He smiled seeing my shocking face.
