57. His arrival

Preeti's point of view

It's almost evening and Siddharth is not arrived yet. My eyes automatically fell on the clock and checked time after 5 minutes. Almost everyone arrived except him.

I was in a kitchen making orange juice for Neha. She is in her room with her college friends. Ritu aunty told me to give her juice because she didn't have her breakfast.

"Preeti.."

After giving juice to Neha, I am on my way to go downstairs when Dhruv called me from behind.

I stop on my track and look at him.

"Preeti can I talk to you for a minute." Dhruv said while walking towards me.

I nodded my head as 'yes.'

"Preeti I know I was a douche bag and acting like a jerk to you back then but I never meant to hurt you or anyone close to you." He said with a guilt in his eyes.
