Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 359
Shreya did not know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at Akira…
The little girl was looking at Shreya as if Shreya had stabbed her on her back in cold blood.
Obviously, coming to a conclusion, both Charan and Shreya drop Akira back at home while they went out to do their business. And Akira took a leave today… she absolutely refused to leave the before night and by morning, it would be too late for school anyways. But given the situation, Charan did not bother much and let Akira be. He could understand what she was going through.
So, they decided to drop her at Charan’s parents’ place.
And the hole in their plan thus came when Akira refused to get down from the car.
Akira being the smart kid she was, eavesdrops on their conversation throughout the ride home. Not that they were trying to hide it from her anyway. But Akira seemed to have grasped one main point from their conversation… that Charan and Shreya were going to drop her at home and go somewhere together.
So, she stubbornly refused to get out of the car and of course, Shreya did not really have the heart to be forceful or harsh with her… not that she ever been like that with Akira.
But Akira had never been stubborn with her either before… but this time she just wouldn’t budge.
“Baby, I will bring you back the biggest teddy bear possible when I get back, I promise!!” Shreya tried to coax.
But Akira just shook her head resolutely as she said, “I do not want any teddy bear. I just want to be with you… I am not leaving you!”
Shreya was getting a headache… she looked at Charan helplessly while he just gave her an “I have no idea what to do here either” look.
Right then, Harsh called her. Shreya left the father-daughter duo to attend the call.
“Shreya, where are you?? I have been waiting for you here for about half an hour now!!” His voice came from the other end. But more than being annoyed or anything, they actually sounded concerned. Especially given what had happened a few nights back, it wasn’t really that surprising.
“Yea, about that…” Shreya trailed. Because she really did not know where to begin explaining. She looked back at her car where two great Bhudha’s were sitting not budging.
“I might be a little later than our schedule… can you stall for a while? I will be there as soon as possible…” Shreya answered. There was awkwardness in her voice when she said that but she still refrained from explaining the exact reason why she was late…
“Okay… I will inform the inspector…” Harshad said and hung up. As long as she was okay, it was not a problem to stall. Anyways, it was not like they were making the police wait at her house…
When Shreya decided she was going to show herself today, they decided the best way to do it will be at the police station. They had already leaked to the media she would be over this afternoon to give her statement about the accident.
After all, the police had just laid eyes on her from a distance so far after the accident. They had stalled till now from Shreya from actually talking to them face to face in the name of treatment. And since she is supposed to give the statement anyways, she decided to do it today and in the station itself.
And with the media and her state, she would be able to get the maximum effect.
Shreya took a deep breath before going back to the car. If it cannot be done, she would just take Akira with her and let her stay in the car at a distance. If it were any other place, Shreya wouldn’t have minded taking Akira with her… but this place was the police station and with the media presence, it is bound to be chaotic and dramatic. And Akira is not used to such kind of environment. It might scare her.
So, thus deciding, Shreya made her way to the car. But to her surprise, just as she reached for the car door, it opened from inside startling her. But when she stepped back, Akira walked out with puffed-up cheeks and blazing eyes.
But she did not walk away from the place.
She looked at Charan still sitting inside the car and said authoritatively, “You better get me the biggest one!! Or else don’t think about coming back home!” She ordered her dad, looking absolutely entitles as well as overbearing. But her frowned brows suggested that she was really pissed at him. It was just, in her small face, these things looked cute as well as scary at the same time.
Akira then turned her attention towards Shreya…
Shreya could help but freeze in place. She was startled by the look Akira gave her. Akira had never been angry with her… period. Nor was she ever demanding of Shreya. So, Shreya did not know how to react to that face.
“And you, you better come back soon… you have a maximum of 4 hours… if you don’t come back by then, I am never talking to you!!” Akira ordered once again.
Shreya subconsciously nodded her head looking very obedient.
Akira looked instantly satisfied as she gave Shreya a flying kiss before entering the house while Shreya just stood there stagnant until she heard someone laugh from behind her.
“She sure is bossy when she wants to be, just like someone else!!” Adam chuckled from behind her looking delighted.
Shreya came back to her senses and rolled her eyes at Adam as she said, “Drive… we are getting late…” She quickly got into the car and asked.
“Do you want to tell me what just happened?” Shreya asked Charan who looked amused out of his head.
“Nothing… I just said she was being a pain in the a.s.s to you by throwing unnecessary tantrums like an imm.a.t.u.r.e kid!!” Charan shrugged.
“She is a kid!!” Shreya empahsised.
But Akira hated being called a kid. For her, she stopped being a kid when she reached 10 years.
