I Will Never Be Yours

Chapter 43

Bangalore...
2 weeks later...

Deepika was walking in the supermarket, to buy some stuff for her new house, where she was living with her new flatmates...

She was going to work under Mr. Joshi's younger brother, Mr. Shyam Joshi, as his assistant...
Her former boss was so impressed by her, that he sent her to assist his younger brother, who was also a lawyer...

She passed through the women's dress section and remembered Ananya, like how they would try like 20 dresses and choose 2 in some expensive boutique...

How Ananya would help her in buying the dresses, that would help her catch Ved's attention...

She fists her hand thinking about Ved,  and at the same time her eyes fill with tears, thinking about Ananya...

'I am sorry Annie... ' she mutters wiping her tears and quickly walks away from that section...

While walking swiftly, she collides with a man who was buying something at the stuffed toys section..

'Freak... I am so sorry sir, I... ' She began

'Deepika...?' the man said and Deepika looked up and gasped looking at Aayan who was holding a blue Teddy bear..

'Aayan...!  Hi... ' Deepika said

'You live here ? In Bangalore ? What a pleasant surprise... When did you leave Delhi...?' Aayan asked glancing at her bag, which had groceries

Deepika looked at him bewildered, and then realized, of course he doesn't know what happened between her and Ved two years ago...

'Yeah I got a job here... I live in Indira nagar... ' she said

'That's nice, I live in Kormangala...' He said

'Of course you do...' Deepika muttered learning that he lives in the posh area of the city

'I have my office there... ' Deepika said

'Really...?  Where do you work...?' He asked

'I am the assistant to Mr. Shyam Joshi, he is a lawyer... ' Deepika said

Aayan looked at her shocked..
'He is the legal advisor in my company, AV technologies.... ' he said and it was Deepika's turn to look at him startled

'Oh my god... You are our weird boss who doesn't allow women to work on his floor...?' she exclaimed

'Yeah... ' Aayan said trying to avoid the topic

'Well I am not surprised, after all you are Aayan... You can do anything.. ' Deepika commented

'That sounds like a taunt to me... ' He said

'You expect me to be pleased with you, after what you did to my Ananya...?' She spat angrily

'See I am in a very happy mood right now, don't spoil it by mentioning her...' Aayan said, searching for more toys

'Such a heartless man you are Aayan... You know she... ' Deepika retorted angrily but stopped in between

Damn, I was about to say it she thought

'She...?' Aayan raised his brows

'She changed after you left, I don't know what you said to her while leaving, but it certainly had a bad impact on her, it's like she stopped enjoying her life, turned into a robot...' Deepika said angrily

Aayan felt bad, after listening to this, but he was not going to let his emotions overpower his anger on her

'I did not say anything to her, she is anyway a drama queen, she would've forgotten about it in a month, and now living normal and happy... With her family... I am sure about it... ' he retorted
