Akash and Madhu were descending the stairs outside the office. Akash turned towards Madhu and offered her a ride home.
"I can drive you hom…." But before he could even complete the words, Madhu squealed suddenly startling Akash. And before he could make sense of anything, he saw Madhu galloping away from him with a burst of eccentric laughter and the next second she had hoisted herself over a guy who was standing leisurely leaning over his car with a big goofy smile.
He hoisted her on his arms and swung around in glee while Madhu just laughed away.
Something snapped inside Akash. He did not even realize that his hands were fisted tightly while his eyes blazed with anger. God knows what he would have done if not for Shreya coming over and swinging her arms around his shoulders.
"Hey, what's up??" Shreya asked away not realizing she had actually interrupted something.
