Reena is studying engineering in a reputed college and she's also admired by her professors. Being good in her studies and scoring good , Still she manages to get time to watch Netflix series and other dramas.

Despite showing that she doesn't care about anyone's bad behaviour towards her , deep down she cares and this makes her sad every night .
Reena's parents try to make her happy but she still misses the fun , that the other students are having. The other students always hangout with each other , they always have stories about the adventures they did with their friends . She's happy that her parents are so good but she also knows that they are also worried about her.
She had heard her mom sharing her worries with her dad about her being lonely and no friends to rely upon. Her mom was once saying to her father that how could she'll able to survive without any partner if her attitude is like this and she's unable to make friends .
There isn't a single friend that she had seen with Reena since Reena was 6 years old.
That time also Reena had only one friend, his name was Ayan. Ayan was 2 years older than Reena and he he was 8 when she was six. They always used to play together and Ayan had to protect her from all the other kids as she never lost any game and other thought that she cheats and that's why she always wins. But being at the age of only eight , Ayan knew well that she was intelligent and was good at remembering things and that's why win.
Reena always had her childhood best friend Ayan in her mind and thought why don't other people also treat her that way.
And since he left the city when she was only six, she missed him alot... but the memories of her being with him are always with her .
And despite being such a bright kid she believes that one day she'll meet Ayan , her only friend who never saw her as nerd and a bookworm and that would make her happy and somehow she will have someone by her side to rely upon and a friend to share all the things that she's hesitant to share with her parents too.
The hope of meeting Ayan is a reason why she stayed positive and able to resist all the mean things done and said by her neighbours and her classmates.
It was mid Dec and she was in her college Library as usual, digging into the book titled "Linear Control Systems" . The End semester were near and so there were a bit more students than usual.
Inspite of the more than usual people in the library , Reena noticed something, the same face ogling at her as yesterday and the day before yesterday and the day before the before yesterday's. And this was getting at her nerves, That very face She had seen seeing her's since last week .
Earlier it used to be only four to five times per hour and as she used to be in the library for atleast 3 hours a day. It was total of 12 times a day he catched her glimpse from behind the 3rd row of tables , a safe place to see her and not get noticed .
Still Reema had known his activities from the 2nd day only .. but she thought that he also might be thinking of reading the same book as the topper did and that's why was looking at her books.
But she was wrong...
And she was terribly wrong as she observed him now gawking at her only and not even bothering to once see his book layed open on the desk .
Since her End semester exam was near , she stayed in the library for more than usual but somehow she couldn't concentrate on her books because of the person sitting on the 3rd row from the entrance who was watching her every now and then.
She tried to remember and find his resemblance from her fellow batchmates, but she couldn't. Reena had never seen that person in her 2 year's of her engineering college. And that's why she was also somewhat curious about him and why was he sneaking at her.
The boy seemed to be of her age and was in very formal and yet classy attire which was very uncommon for any college going boy, especially different from her fellow male batchmates. He had combed his hair in a very clean manner and had a bit of stubble that looked quite good on him.
He was neither too lean nor too masculine but with his grey collared shirt that he had cuffed near his elbows ,he looked very good.
Now , Reema was getting quit agitated with his peeking that she thought of confronting him. And was just closing her books and was about to stand from her bench when someone tapped on her shoulder.
As she turned and saw who the person was.. she dropped all the 3 heavy books she had clunged to her chest.But with the sound of dropping of her books and her screaming there came no other sound for 10 seconds. Then came the librarian and was about to scold the person but he saw that it was Reema , he remained silent and asked what's happening? why you screamed?
Reema then looked at the person in front of her and then the librarian, and then her eyes went between those two. And only after 30 second , she muttered sorry to both of them and rushed to the exit.
The person who she had left with the librarian and her books followed her. But by then , she had gone out of the campus.
As she was half running half walking out the campus main entrance as, she was also cursing herself for her stupidity and above all for leaving like that. She was very annoyed by herself and her shyness now out of nowhere she was also thinking that what the guy must be thinking about her..
All this things were going on her mind that she didn't noticed a bike came from behind and stopped in front of her. this made her stumble on her feets and was about to fall when an arm caught her from her waist and pulled her near him. because he did that with his one arm only .. he had to exert his body's force too and thus now their bodies very close to each other, Reema's ****** were pressed onto the biker's chest. But their faces where still apart and also the biker had his helmet on but still Reema knew who he was from his attire that was very uncommon.
With the thoughts of his invading her privacy , peeking at her, and making her do stupidity and now clinging his body onto her's... she was very furious and was about to push the biker but he caught her hands midway and pulled her more closer with his one hand on her waist and another holding her right hand.
But now Reena was very mad but still she had not lost her sences so instead of fighting physically with him .. she looked into his eyes, and that was the first time she noticed his eyes , they were black not just black pitched black .. and the depth in his eyes made her stumble once again, this time in fear. His eyes were very much opposite to the way he dressed and carried himself elegantly , the eyes looked like someone's of very dark character and who has seen very worst of life and who knows might have done horrible things too.
And when she no longer able to see onto his eyes she moved her eyes from his and landed a few inches above his eyes to his eyebrows and saw that despite of his being his elegancy he also is a but funky to have a slit in his eyebrow like other's.But only looking for more seconds she realised that there were three tiny holes where he had trimmed his eyebrow and then she noticed that there were no small hairs present near that small section and it was very smooth .
Only then she realised that he had not trimmed his eyebrow hair on one section like others do but there was a cut on his eyebrow and where three stitches on them too. And it looked very old wound only having 3 stich dots remaining and leaving a patch of baldness on his left eyebrow.
As she was looking onto his eyes and his cut mark that didn't much looked like a cut mark and instead more like a fashion boys did of their age, he was also observing her and as he felt that she had found out about his cut . His grip on her waist loosened a bit but not completely .
And as Reema was about to ask him about his mark he said in a very cold tone to sit down on his bike and let him drive her to home..
Biker - " get on the bike and let me drop you "
"But I don't want to.. I can go on my own . could you please mind your own bloody business ".
(In mind her mind ):Should I ask him why has he been watching me from the last week and what was he going to ask when he tapped on my shoulder...
ughhhh... why am I this much shy ?
( in her mind):What???? he's still looking at me , why hasn't he left .
I told him clearly that I don't want to ride in his bike.
(in her mind): oh god!! he's still looking in my direction . looks like I need to confront him. Please God help me ,I need to be courageous.
"Hey , what do want ? haven't I denied your offer?"
Biker(in a very cold tone) - " I don't have the patience of repeating myself still I'm doing this for once. I want you to get on the bike and let me drop u off. "
"why should I ? I don't even know your name, moreover I don't want to go with you. "
Biker -" point number one : you CAN NOT
DENY me .
point number two : you cannot do anything to stop me girl. No one will pay attention to any of your screaming if you insist on that .
and the last one : don't you think your parents are going to be happy seeing you with a companion ? don't you want to ease their tensions they are having regarding you ?
JUST GET ON THE BIKE OR ELSE I HAVE MANY OTHER WAYS AND I WON'T HESITATE ON GOING THAT WAY ."
(In her mind):Whatever, I don't care about his false threatenings . what would he do ?
and how does he know about my mom dad and their worries about me?
I'll just ignore him and will go on my way.
"hey hey !!! .. put me down . what are you doing?"
Biker - "....... "
..." PUT ME DOWN . I SAID PUT ME DOWN."...
*sound of bike's engine roaring .
"I don't want to be with you , will you stop the bike or should I jump off? "
Biker-".... "
Reena being shifted from her postion from the back seat to now on the lap of the man riding the bike . the man's one hand having a firm grip on Reena's waist .
"I'm requesting you please leave me alone . What do you want from me ?
Atleast let me sit on the back, I promise I won't jump off. Please, I don't want to go my home like this. it's embarassing."
Biker ( holding her even more closer on her waist) - " who said I'm taking you home sweetheart?"
" But you told that yourself few minutes ago.."
Biker-" That was when you weren't threatening me trying to jump off from the bike sweety . Now you'll have to face the consequence of that. BTW we are just a few blocks away from my paradise."
" What do you mean by paradise a few blocks? I'm not going anywhere you jerk.
It's illegal to take anyone anywhere without their permission. I'm going to sue you for that. "
(in her mind): Damm!! I can't reach to my pocket to fetch the phone. How could he hold me that way ? my hands aren't reaching there . What If I try harder and he gets the idea that I'm going to make a call and send my location to my parents?
No, I can't let that happen, I'm sure he'll throw my phone and I won't be able to do anything then.
*The bike stops in front of an old building. But still the man hadn't removed his hands from her waist . Very easily he slides his one leg from bike and holding her with his both hands now stands in front of the building with a smirk on his face.
"Is this your paradise you mentioned?
Well, it's quite impressive."
Biker ( chucking) -" are you being sarcastic sweetheart?"
" Stop saying that.."
Biker( imitating serious face ) - " what do you mean by 'that' sweetheart ?"
(in her mind ): It's better to not to argue. I have to send my location to mamma . Till then , I'll have to just tolerate him . God ... please help me out .
" Nothing. Now as we have reached this magnificent paradise of yours, would you be kind enough to let me stand on my own ? "
Biker-" sweetheart, I'll be kind enough to carry you this way untill we reach my sweet adobe."
*The man carried Reena inside the building and after that to the backside of the building .
she's flabbergasted watching the scene in front of her.
" what the hell* !!!!! "
