Her monster

3

At 12 am , Reya was going to turn 18 . Ishaan and Zoya decided to make it fun for her . They decided to celebrate it in club. 

Around 10 am , when everyone had left for their room , Zoya sneaked into Reya’s room all dressed up for a night out "get ready "she said .  

"For what ?"Reya asked in shock . 

"We are going out . You are turning 18, stop being a baby , its time to have some fun "Zoya said winking at her and started going through her wardrobe . She gave Reya an off white dress and then applied red lipstick on her lips . 

"Its too much "Reya said looking at her lips.  

"No its just enough . You are looking super hot , now lets leave. "Zoya said pulling her outside.  

They sneaked out of the house , Ishaan was waiting for them .  

"How are we going to enter the club ?"Reya asked feeling nervous .  

"You are forgetting that the city's best club is owned by Malhotra’s. "Ishaan said grinning .  

When they arrived ,Reya relaxed . The guards allowed them to enter seeing Ishaan with them .the music was loud , Reya didn’t like crowded places and this environment wasn’t sitting well with her . 

"Hey cant we just go for a long drive ?"Reya said meekly. 

"Stop being a spoil sport. “Zoya said and then they headed towards the VIP section .  

The music wasn’t so blaring over there . They settled down and Reya started to get comfortable . She was enjoying the music .Zoya pulled her towards the dancing floor , Ishaan was keeping a watch on them from the bar . Ishaan made sure that no one tried to come too near or touch them .  

Around 12 am , Zoya took her to the terrace of the club . It was decorated very beautifully . Zoya and Ishaan wished her happy birthday , Reya hugged them both .  

She was feeling blessed ,for having them in life . She couldn’t imagine her life without them .  

They returned home around 2 am . Ishaan dropped them and went to his place .Reya wasn’t able to sleep , she was feeling restless . In the morning , they were late for college . When they went down , dad was giving them looks .  

Darsh and Aisha wished Reya happy birthday .when Aisha went to get breakfast , Zoya asked "what’s wrong , dad?" 

"You two went out last night , without informing "he said in a strict tone .  

Their eyes went wide "dad ,how did you find out? “Reya asked . 

"I saw you sneaking out and then Ishaan’s car outside our place. Your mom doesn’t know about it " he grumbled .  

"You are angry ?"Reya asked softly .  

"No , just disappointed . You left without even telling me .have I ever denied you from having fun ?"he asked . 

"Sorry dad "they said in unison and hugged him .Darsh smiled.  

They went to the college . Sasha was talking to Ishaan in parking lot , when they entered the garage .  

She was going to touch his chest , when Zoya caught her head . Sasha was so focused on getting his attention , that she didn’t even notice them approaching . Ishaan was going to stop her himself , but when he saw zoya's dangerous expressions , he decided to have some fun . 

"Who do you think , you were going to touch ?"Zoya seethed still holding her head . 

"Let go, you b***h "Sasha said yanking her head .  

Ishaan pulled Zoya at her side and said with barely contained anger "don’t you dare talk to her like that " 

Sasha was surprised to see his behaviour , he was known for his easy going , cool nature .  

"You know , I can have better than you "Sasha said bitchily and went away .  

Zoya turned towards Ishaan "why were you even talking to her ?" 

He scratched the back of his neck " I was waiting for you . Then she reached me and I decided to see you all worked up over me" A slow grin took over his face .  

"Its funny to see me all worked up ?"she asked with her ears turning red .Ishaan bit her ear and whispered "stop being so hot , I will lose control " 

Zoya choked on her spit and her face turned a sweet shade of pink . 

Reya chuckled knowing that Ishaan must have said something private to her due to which she got so flushed .  

They went inside . Their 4th class was going on , when Reya noticed the weather changing . Black clouds were covering the sky . She was feeling her heart stopping looking at the darkness of them , but a calm was also taking over her , knowing that there was going to be some kind of peace after this storm .  

She couldn’t look away from the window . The rain started falling , it felt like rain was ready to take away something , some ignorance’s , some emptiness , some pain . Zoya nudged her, that’s when she noticed that she was breathing heavily .  

She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself. They were sitting on the back and professor Gupta was busy in writing on board . No one else noticed her condition .  

When she opened her eyes , it had stopped raining and the dark clouds were also moving away . 

They directly went home that day. "What had happened ?"Zoya asked .  

"Nothing .... maybe , the storm scared me ?"she said .  

"As if a creeping thing could scare you"zoya said trying to lighten the mood . They decided to take some rest , a party was arranged for Reya in the evening .
