The Argument

🤍🤍

Arisa's POV

I lift up my head to look at Vansh who stood in front of me, giving me a warm smile. I thought he would have maintained his distance from me after that day but that did not happen.

Instead, he supported me like a friend, I was genuinely happy about it, there are very few who have been like that in my life.

"Are you alright?" He asks me as he hands me over a file, I smile and nod at his question, he was referring to Riya's drama which happened at the dinner that night.

Honestly I was shaken up a bit because the past came haunting me back, it was scary to even face her again but who knows when I will see her yet another time.

"Okay guys, I hope you all have tried the products, we shall discuss the reviews" Arsh said and we attended to that.

The discussion was long but still I could make him convinced over my view.

It's been a few days since we met again and this was the same routine. I would come here and hold discussions, he would suggest me changes and the most important thing, he would make me wait after everyone had left.

"I am happy with all the work you did but I would like for you to not get distracted by the project manager" I snapped my head at him.

"What?" I ask as I stare at him in disbelief, am I hearing things right? Me, distracted in between my work? Not possible.

"You are smiling a lot these days seeing him" He spoke out after he gave me a sharp look.

"I wasn't smiling sir" I politely said but only I knew how much I was angered by his ridiculous question.

"Do you think I will lie about this stuff?" He questioned me again and I said, "I am just clarifying my thing" I stated positively.

"Arisa, I am being serious here" I heard him say again and this time I snapped, "I am serious as well, polite sir but whatever you asked me is none of your business".

"It is my business, because you were flirting with him in between work hours" he says and I enlarge my eyes at his daring words.

"I think you have become an idiot as well after dating that useless girlfriend of yours but that doesn't concern me. Even if I was flirting I did my work properly and so did he. If we ever mess up then you have a say in it otherwise"

I stood up and inched closer to him as I leaned a little down and softly whispered, "Bhaad mein jao".

"Go to hell".

He enlarged his eyes and I knew this was not what he was expecting from a girl like me. Does he think I am a fragile girl and a submissive one who will say, 'I am sorry sir, whatever you say I will abide by that'.

Please, like hell I would.

As I was about to go away, I gave him one last look before I closed the show.

"Don't ever think I will take suggestions from a man who dates a fucking bully".

I left by the door and my mind was already sour with what he expected of me. Does he think I am some obsessed lover and I can't focus on my work? And how the fuck can he judge us? Can I not even pass a warm smile to a friend?

He had not changed at all, he is the same man and I could care less about people like him. I am done talking to him.

Arsh's POV

I was not expecting this at all, she was not like this before and how could she snap at me after what she did during the meeting? She is dating him and after pissing the hell out of me she says she did not disturb anyone.

I won't take her bullshit and I will make sure she apologizes to me, there is no way she will speak to me that way.

She was about to step out and before her hand reached the doorknob I held her hand and spun her, her body flinched with shock and she gave me an astonished look.

"Apologize," I said. Her gaze stiffened at my words.

"Leave my hand" she says to me with a glaring look but instead of leaving her fragile wrist I press it more, causing her to tighten her palms into fists.

"Leave," she says but the next moment I twisted her hand towards her back, "I do not like to repeat Arisa, you know it. So Apologize" I said. My patience was near breaking.

"Why should I?" she questions me and I clench my jaw, "Don't Arisa" I warned her.

"You are making it difficult for yourself. Also whatever Vansh and I have is nothing of your concern, I will fucking smile at him".

"I won't let that happen," I said and pulled her closer to me, her chest collided with mine, and her smell had changed. It was more, I don't know but it was something different. She never smelled this good.

She tried her best to make her wrist free but she could only struggle, "Haath tuth jaega phir rona matt".

(If your hand breaks then don't cry afterwards).

"Tum roge agar mene abhi tumhare gal par ek thappad Mara toh"

"You will cry if I slap your brains right, now" she said and this was it, "Arisa, Mei aakhri baar bol rha Hu, maafi mango mujhse warna mujhe khud bhi nhi pata ki Mei kya karuga".

(Arisa, apologize to me, this is the last time I say this or else I won't know what I might do)

"Nahi" (No) she said and I held her jaw tightly the subsequent moment, "You will know soon" I said whispering dangerously in her ear.

"Mei bhi dekhti hu kya karoge tum"

"I shall also see what you will do" she says and we both glare at each other, it looks like we would eat each other alive and raw.

"Arisa Verma, you are still ugly as ever," I said, breaking eye contact and her expression changed, she looked at me when the words hit her.

I left her finally and she stepped backwards and the expression of changed as soon as I left her. Her chest was moving up and down and she went away even before I could comprehend why she made that face.

I inhaled deeply and remembered the first time I met this girl, at the collab course. I should have never let her in my life.
