"What did he do? Akira I am asking you, what did he do?" asked a troubled Mike to his sister Akira.
Even though Mike was Akira's younger brother, he was the only family which Akira had. So he was his father, mother and his brother as well. He was 2 years younger than her but way mature than the guys of his age. He had always disliked Anthony. He knew he wasn't trustworthy. He had warned Akira so many times, but Akira was too blinded in love to even listen to him.
"He didn't do anything to me Mike. I just don't feel like discussing about it right now", said Akira and sighed.
Akira was so exhausted with so much happening around her, that she didn't have the will to go through it again.
"Fine, where are you right now? What time will your flight land? Send me the details. I will come and pick you up", Mike said and picked up a paper and pen to jot the details.
Mike was really worried for Akira. He knew her sister was just showing a brave face to him, but deep down he knew that she was crumbling from inside.
"Eat something ok. Please will you? For my sake? Please take care of yourself Aki".
Mike was literally choking up. If he could have, he would have punched that moron in his face right now. But now all that he could do was to calm his sister down.
"I will, I promise. It's almost time for me to board. I have mailed you my flight details. Will keep the call now Mike. Love Love", said Akira and disconnected the call.
After her call with Mike, Akira felt a bit ok. At least she had someone upon whom she could lean on. She grabbed her bag and came out of the washroom. She was too tired, jetlagged and broken. All she wanted was to board the flight and sort her thoughts out.
She went to the information panel and started re-checking her Boarding gate number. It was gate number 19. She kept staring at the screen and suddenly she felt a pang of pain deep inside. Today was 19th April, Anthony's birthday. And suddenly she couldn't move. She was still staring at the screen like she was dazed or something.
She got startled with the buzzing sound of her phone. It was Mike.
"Did you reach your boarding gate?", Mike asked.
"Yeah I am just about to. Will call you once I land ok? Love Love." Akira said and returned back from her thoughts. She started towards her gate. As the boarding hadn't started she decided to take a seat near the Gate. She started reading the new texts sent by Anthony.
"Listen, this is not the way you should behave ok? It's a small thing."
"I just kissed her, that's it. We didn't do anything else. I swear on you. And it was just a Birthday Kiss."
"Just tell me where you are?"
"Pick up the phone damn it"
Akira didn't cry this time. Rather she started typing a text message for Anthony.
"Hi Anthony. It's totally fine. I am totally fine. I came here to surprise you for your birthday. But now I feel it was un-necessary. Anyways it's mandatory that I give you a gift, after all you are the birthday boy. Since I was in too much rush to leave your place I couldn't give the gift I had prepared. But now I have another gift for you."
After finally getting a text from Akira, Anthony frantically started typing.
"I don't need any gift babe. Just come back to me."
But the reply from Akira came as a shock to him.
"Let's break up. I am setting you free. That's my gift for you."
Before Anthony could reply anything he was blocked from everywhere. Whatsapp, Contacts and even Facebook. Then Akira opened his contact details on her phone and after looking at his contact number for almost 10 seconds, she pressed DELETE.
