Chapter 279 - Is Shreya okay? She is acting weird!!

The sun was still not up… it was just that time of the day when no living soul would be awake. And car zoomed through such road and came to a stop only when they reached the parking lot of Shreya's apartment.

Srinivas still diligently escorted Shreya back to her apartment doors before going out.

Shreya made sure that Srinivas was out of sight before going back down and took out her bike. It came alive as she pressed her thumbprint and vroomed loudly in that silent night.

She did not even bother to put on her helmet as she zoomed out of the parking lot and wandered around aimlessly on the deserted streets.

Her emotions were not stable at the moment. In fact, they were as erratic as they had ever been in all these years after she had lost her parents.

She was holding on to a very thin thread of control she was afraid she was going to lose.

A murderous aura surrounded her as long as she thinks about how the person who was responsible for her parents' death was still alive and wandering around the world…Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#!!_51757748488037535">#!!_51757748488037535</a> for visiting.

Even though Abishek, Abhimanyu, and Naren had been responsible enough, they were not the ones who pulled the triggers.

Knowing the person who pulled the trigger was dead had put something in her at ease for so long. But knowing that was all a lie and that same person had dared to target her family all over again made her heart boil in ways she did not know was possible.

Every last cell in her body was begging her to just go to her office and pull the trigger to her head…

And there are other parts of her that wanted to do something so much worse than that.

These thoughts made her body and heart cold like ice… And Shreya did not want to meet with Charan and Akira when she was like this… she did not want to scare them.

And their presence was the only thing that was making her fight for control… without them, Shreya is afraid she would have long since killed Alisha with her own bare hands the minute she knew of her presence.

In her daze, she did not realize the time flying by until she noticed the light rise all around her. She let out a sigh and turned back home.

It took her another hour to reach her apartment… by then, the sun was well above the horizon and the streets started bustling.

She clicked into her bedroom and found Charan still sleeping. She just stared at him for a while before going to get a very quick shower.

The ride on the bike had resulted in a lot of dust particles deposited on her body. She did not like the feeling… so, she washed them away quite thoroughly.

But the downside was that the sound of running water actually woke Charan up. So, when she walked out of the shower wearing her usual sweatshirt and shorts, Charan was sitting leaning back on the headboard.

Charan blinked himself awake only to see Shreya walk towards him.

"Why are you showering again?" He asked and yawned heavily before he could continue.

Shreya just shook her head and went to him and snuggled into his laps.

No matter what she faced… whether Charan can help or not… Whether she talked things through to him or not… she found solace like none other here.

She felt safe here somehow…

Before she could even realize what was happening, her eyes drooped on their own accord as sleep took control of her body.

Her body and mind relaxed slowly as her breathing became steady.

Charan just patted on her back and stopped talking.

He knew she had left in the middle of the night… He had woken up to get some water when he found her missing.

And just from seeing her facial expression, Charan could deduce she was not happy… that something did not go her way. So, he stayed quiet and let her get some sleep for a while.

When he heard a rustling sound outside, he slides Shreya out of his laps and went out without making any noise. Thankfully, Shreya actually did not wake up. She was exhausted… both physically and mentally.

Because of all the fright, she barely slept for a couple of days now. So, it was no wonder she collapsed.

When he carefully closed Shreya's room behind him, he also saw Akira walking out of her room rubbing her eyes to get rid of her sleep.

Charan scooped her into his arms and wished her warmly, "Morning, Princess…"

"Morning, dada!! Shreya?" Akira asked adorably holding her arms around Charan tightly.

"She had been working all night and just getting some sleep just now. Let's not disturb her okay?" He explained before placing her on the kitchen counter and opened the fridge to get her some milk.

As always, Shreya's fridge was miserable before Charan filled them to brim in the last two days.

The father and daughter got along silently as always. Charan handed Akira a warm glass of milk once she came back after brushing her teeth.

Akira gulped down one sip at a time as always. But then she stopped after two sips and asked, "Is Shreya okay? She is acting weird!!!"

Children, even though innocent actually has a very accurate incite on the moods of people around them… especially when they are people closest to them. And Shreya was close to Akira in more ways than one. So, she obviously recognized her oddness.

"How so?" Charan asked making himself a cup of coffee…

"I don't know. I have never seen Shreya scared. But for some reason, when she looks at me… it looks as if she is afraid. There are even cold sweets dripping down her forehead when we met at the airport!!" Akira explained.

"I know baby. She was just scared that something bad had happened to us when we couldn't call her… She will be okay with us around…" Charan smiled and ruffled Akira's head before going back to making their breakfast.
