FORGOTTEN PROMISESE - Jealousy Without Memories

59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwzHqMpoSh

A week later...

Meera returned to the company headquarters.

Employees seemed relieved to see her healthy.

But one person looked particularly happy.

Rhea.

Rhea's Performance

Rhea walked beside Arjun during an executive meeting.

They discussed projects efficiently.

Their teamwork was seamless.

Natural.

Comfortable.

Too comfortable.

For some reason...

Meera didn't like it.

At all.

An Unfamiliar Feeling

After the meeting ended, she watched Rhea laugh at something Arjun said.

Arjun didn't laugh back.

But he looked relaxed.

And somehow...

That bothered her.

A lot.

The Elevator Scene

Later, Meera found herself alone with Kabir.

He noticed her expression immediately.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"You're staring at Rhea."

"I'm not."

"You absolutely are."

Meera sighed.

"Do you think she likes Arjun?"

Kabir nearly laughed.

Instead he answered carefully.

"Why does that matter?"

"It doesn't."

"It does."

"It doesn't."

Kabir smiled.

"You're jealous."

Meera froze.

"No."

"Then why do you care?"

She had no answer.

Because the truth frightened her.

The Realization

That evening she stood alone on the balcony.

The city lights sparkled below.

Her thoughts refused to stay quiet.

Why did seeing Rhea near Arjun bother her?

Why did she keep noticing every woman who talked to him?

Why did she care?

Then a terrible possibility entered her mind.

What if...

She was falling for him again?59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhyE6raDjt
