16. Frump

'You hitched a beauty like Kavita' Rahul said in frustration

'...and your're sticking me up with a frump aunt like Sukriti' Rahul continued complaining

'Are you my friend or enemy?'

Suru kept listening to them behind the wall while trying her best to hold her tears she was few steps away from the lift

Just then a figure appears from behind her with groceries in hands going towards the lift completely unaware of the situation ahead.

He looked at the back of the girl in front of him. She was standing quietly besides the wall he could also hear some man's voice. The girl looked familiar which made him stop on his way to the lift.

'Shit man! I had high hopes with you' Vijay dissapointly said

Suru couldn't not believe their words she knew she was not good enough but that was cruel. She starts taking her steps back quietly away from those two without letting them know her presence.

The man behind her can also hear the two man talking. He now gets the gist of the situation understand why she was so quiet.

'and you are the 10th guy who is rejecting her' Vijay continued

Suru's eyes reddened she was trying her best not to let the tears fall. She could hear their voices clearly she was glad no one's here at least.

The man behind her looked down and sighed feeling sad for her

'What?...there were 9 before me' rahul was surprised

'When were you going to tell me this?'

After having enough of that Suru finally turn around to go back to the lift and just get away from this place.

She looked at the person in front of her which she was not expecting and embarrassment ran down her veins. How embarrassing it is for a stranger to listen all this about her.

He also looked down realising how miserable she must be feeling now

'...After getting me into this mess' Rahul continued

Suru wiped the tears that were about to fall from her eyes her face was completely red

She looked around to evade the embarrassment and starts walking without looking at the man in front of her.

'Look if I have to marry kavita then...

I must first find someone for that encyclopedia' Vijay answered Rahul

Suru reached the lift and pressed the button frowning with disgust. Disgusted with the men talking shit behind her back and angry with herself.

After seeing Suru's condition he also looked towards the men who were in the parking area they couldn't see them but their voice could be heard from miles away

'that old man jayram insists on it' vijay continued frustrated

'I am fed up of it'

She waited for the lift so does he waited behind her hearing those two as they Keep talking

'I can't help you with this, bro' rahul replied

Just then the lift arrive and suru got inside wiping her tears

'This sukriti is your problem dude not mine' rahul said again

Suru enters the lift but the man behind her kept looking towards those two outside trying to control his anger. He didn't enter the lift as he knew she needed space.
