"Do you still hate me?"
"Why shouldn't I?"
Getting admitted into her favorite college doesn't turn out to be that awesome when Sandhya Rai comes face-to-face with her childhood arch-nemesis aka Ved Rajput - her worst nightmare in human form.
Would...
I turned my head when I heard the familiar voice of the person I had grown to hate the most in my life. Mahek Rathi.
She was dressed in a black, off-shoulder bowtie strap dress, accompanied by matching clutch and stilleto heels. Her brown hair was tied in a high ponytail while some strands fell loosely around her face. She looked like a doll. A fake doll.

She came and sat in front of me. She put her clutch and phone on the table and crossed her legs. She examined her nails and eyed me curiously.
"Do you want to drink something first?" I asked.
"Get straight to the point, will ya?" she hissed and checked her appearance in her phone.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Going on a date with your boyfriend? Or should I say boyfriends?" I taunted.
She snapped her eyes at me and put her phone down.
"So, which one is it this time?" I provoked.
"What do you mean?" she stressed her words.
"You tell me. Who is it today? Aditya? Rahul? Uday? Or Kunal?"
Mahek clenched her jaw and fisted her hands on the table. She stared me down with her piercing gaze but I just sipped my tea and smirked at her.
"I don't know what you are talking about," she faked negligence.
"Right. I forgot how small your brain is. My mistake. Here, let me show you." I picked up my phone and opened the gallery app.
I turned the screen towards her and showed her some photos I had collected against her. I put the phone to my side and told her that I had video evidences too. She huffed and gave me a death glare.
"You know why I asked you to meet me?" I asked.
"I know. You just want to blackmail me, don't you? Remember, Sandhya. I will not leave Shree even if you threaten me."
"Hey, you moron. I am not talking about him and stop saying that bullshit already. I am here to warn you. I have the evidences against you and you can do nothing about it. You are trapped. But I wanted to know something else too."
"What?"
"Is someone forcing you to do all of this? If you answer me honestly, then I will not expose you. I am giving you an option here. That's why I called you today to meet me. If you tell me everything, I will help you. But if you won't co-operate, I will have to take this step. You understand me?" I explained.
She stared at me in confusion and I reaffirmed what I just told her. I wanted to know her side of the story and what was the actual reason behind her actions.
She reclined back in her chair and crossed her arms across her chest. She glanced around her and when her eyes landed back on me, she smirked.
"What if I don't want to tell you?" she said arrogantly and tilted her head.
