55 I Have Accepted Him (1/2)

THE NEXT DAY

6 AM

Aliya was sound sleeping. She was too tired as a lot had happened in the previous days. The sun was about to rise. But her sleep was disturbed by sounds of her house's doorbell. She tossed and turned before sitting up and cursing whoever it was. When she looked at the clock while rubbing her eyes, she was already striding towards the door to abuse whoever it was. As she opened the door, she fell down.

*THUD*

When she tried to get up, she found that there were two bodies hugging her tight. And what other things can she expect from her friends-cum-lifelines, Bhavna and Anushka. They continued to lie on her until she started screaming.

”MY BACK!!! AHHH!!! GET UP YOU TWO!!!”

As they both realized they were actually done hurting her as they were 'instructed', they got up laughing and screamed in harmony

”GOOD MORNING ALUU!!”

Aliya was now ready to get up and kick their asses but as she got up her back ached badly. Thanks to the soft carpet on the floor, her spine was not fractured. She got up with the support of the sofa on which both these sacks of flour were jumping. She closed the door and yelled

”YOU TWO!!! WHY SUCH ATTACK???”

The two again answered in harmony

”Because we were ordered to do so.”

Aliya was puzzled. Massaging her back with her right hand, she sat besides them and asked

”Who the hell is remaining in taking revenge?”

”Your lover!” Bhavna said while laughing out loud.

”Rishi?” Aliya asked

”Oh! So you know who is your lover!” Anushka teased her

”Shut up Anu!! You two don't have work other than playing pranks with me? One is in police and the other is a model. Still they have so much time left to harass their friend!” complained Aliya

”So you think we are playing a prank! Not at all! Rishi himself instructed us to pounce on you like wild cats. He said you did the same that night.. Did you?” Bhavna said while having a devil smile

Aliya widened her eyes wondering what all she did when she was drugged.

”Seems that you really don't have any clues what 'things' you did that night.” Anushka deliberately stressed over things, taking an advantage that Aliya didn't remember anything.
