Fulfilling Life of an Urban Time Manipulator Chapter 116 116: Trauma

" Listen Zara please... please don't worship soone like that in front of . I don't like it... I really don't like it", I said with determined, agitated and serious eyes looking right at her face which scared her a bit.

" Ri... Ritik.. it's hurting, you're grip is too tight", Zara said with trembling eyes which made realise of how much I got blown away with my tumbling emotions.

It was not that I didn't believe Zara or sothing, it's just that the huge betrayal by the brother of a friend taught to be aware of even the closest of kins.

I had accepted the betrayal to certain limits but there were things which triggered the unforgettable scene ingrained in my subconscious brain making go out of my mind.

High praise of so man other than by my girls being one of the main ones of them.

Feeling ashad of my act I went back and sat silently on my chair.

Feeling the atmosphere Zara also decided to sit back at her seat rather than talking and making more agitated in the process.

The door opened and Sumit in a well dressed suit ca inside.

" Welco Back, Ritik. How you doing and what about your health", with a wide smile on that above average face he ca to with his hands wide open.

I looked at him with so awkwardness but then decided to go with the flow.

Getting up from my seat I too opened my arms wide and went towards him to accept his open hug.

Putting our arms around each other we hugged tightly,

" It must have been tough, don't worry and try to fight it out. Problems co and go as they appear but we must learn to fight through them", Sumit said while patting my back.

" I know brother, but....", sohow stopping my tears from getting out with the warm embrace of soone close to after so long.

" but... it was very hard. I really liked her and the way they took her away... It was really tough to bear and accept all that together. More than that my own brother betrayed like that..", I said beside his ear.

Sumit knew a lot about including Veronica being an underground leader from abroad and the reason as well as the process of being injured and about my trauma also.

" I understand.... It was really heartbreaking just to hear it out and to be the one to face as such. I can't make myself even imagine that thing but you even fought with that bitter as fuxk mory.... I just salute your comndable willpower. Let's sit and talk it out", After applauding Sumit pulled back himself and asked us to sit and talk.

I, with a bit of watery eyes just nodded and went to sit on the recliner on the side.

" Why didn't you co on that celebration downstairs. It was fun, you know", I said while leaning back on the couch.

" I know but what could I do, the bigger the business the more sweat and blood it needs. I just ended a 4 hour long eting to sohow have this cooperation complete", Sumit said with a lost smile.

" I understand. Anyways, this building is fantastic. How did you acquire this, I don't think we can have this much cash flow together even now", I said in an exaggerated manner.

" Heh* It was easy, we just had to be a major shareholder of an almost bankrupt real-estate company with so big assets like this building and then let that company rot and then..... with so minor modifications..... and just like that it was easily acquired.

It was hard to make so residents move out but we needed this space as a normal dium sized building would not had been able to make your larger plans work out so.... acquiring a building this big will help to accommodate the ever growing business of ours", Ritik said with a proud look.

" You really are a bastard. Making a whole company go bankrupt just cause of your personal benefit and more than that even exaggeratingly boast it as one of your major accomplishnts.... I really am lucky to have you Sumit", I said while shaking my head with a smile punching his shoulder lightly.

" Of course you should be otherwise I don't know what would you have left after being in such dangerous situations one after another", said Sumit.

" Anyways, now that we are at it let's talk about sothing important. I have this one thing I have to told you alone without any existence near us", I said with a serious expression.

" What is it about that even Zara shouldn't know about", Sumit asked with a questioning gaze.

" It's just about you and ..", I was stopped with a sudden screech* of the chair.

Zara got up while pushing back her chair with her leg while stomping her palm on the table.

" Ritik... I'm going outside but please don't do sothing excessive", without looking at Zara said this and went outside.

I just had a lost smile on my face.

•••••••••••••••••••••

After she went out in between the inquiring eyes of Sumit, my eyes turned serious as I determined myself to talk to Sumit about sothing.

" Look Sumit I and you are best of friends and have a great relationship but with the sudden betrayal and that too at such a level had left a trauma in . Umm... how should I describe that, let's see...", Sumit cut my words midway.

" Wait-wait-wait, what are you talking about suddenly. I know that it's a situation too hard to bear but this trauma talk... I don't think I should be the one to involve in sothing like this. As a wellwisher, friend and colleague I advice you to talk about it to the ones you have at ho", Sumit said with worried eyes.

Thump* I punched the table and looked at him with a bit of threatening eyes,

" look Sumit I don't want your help Or your care so I'm telling you this straight. The way Zara talked about you is not sothing I can accept. More than that the way she praised you so much that it felt like worshipping made my blood boil.

I already have my pocket full of problems so please don't make my hand turn redder, I already have a good amount of blood in my hand so please let lay low for so ti.

You, as my friend are a big help and inspiration but I won't spare you if I find even a single bit of romantic progression between you and any of my girl especially Zara...", my eyes turned redder with every sentence I spoke while Sumit's face turned worried.

" I... I understand, I'll keep that in mind so calm down. I have so work so we'll talk later so ti", Sumit said quickly and got up to move out.

" Tell Zara to co inside", I said with my head on my fist and elbows on the table while giving him a serious look.

Without saying anything Sumit went outside.
