Love....everlasting? (Chapter 6)

Vikram was tense too now. Jenny had been missing for the same period of time as Aryan had been in the hospital, it would not be difficult for someone to make a connection and hold him in a cell. He(Aryan) had to get out of here quickly, not only because of his love, but because of himself also, it seemed ironic how destiny had tied their fats together. Vikram just hoped for Aryan's sake now, that he would be able to find her as quickly as possible. Aryan was to be discharged that day, so he was getting ready to leave for Jenny's home, he was not going for a party so he didn't mind anything he wore provided it was sufficiently clean. He wore a pair of blue jeans and a white shirt, he had been told he could go to the front desk and leave.
"Vikram, time to go."
"Yeah, buddy,"
"You can go for your meetings if you want to."
"Dude, f..."
"Listen, man, all this is probably going to take a while..."
"F*ck you man...we'll find her together and go home."
"Dude, I'm serious, go to whatever place you want to right now, I want to do this alone."
"You are going to need help and I'm not leaving you alone."
"In that case, I'm not leaving from here."
Vikram was aware of the situation, if he didn't leave soon, he might get arrested,"Dude, ok...whatever you say."
"Cool."
They left from the room, got Aryan discharged. They took an auto rickshaw for her home.
"Okay, her home is as far s you go Vikram."
"Yeah, I get it, you don't need my help. Let's go now."
In around half an hour, they reached her home, they paid the driver, got off and walked towards the greenish plastic door. They knocked on it gently and waited.
After quite some time, the door opened and there stood Jenny's grandmother, red eyed, wet cheeks, dark circles beneath her eyes, she had barely slept for these days.
"Aryan?"
"Yes, aunty."
"Please son, come, sit inside. Is this your friend?"
"Yes, aunty."
Aryan didn't know what to say, nobody could ever be prepared for a situation like this.
"Shall I get you something to eat?"
"No, aunty, I just want to know a few things, I'd like to start looking for Jenny as soon as possible, could you show me her phone?"
Her eyes lit up with hope and confusion, at least, someone did care for her Jenny.
"Of course, here."
She handed him her(Jenny's) phone,they unlocked it and started looking for her chat with Aryan. The chat ended at where it ended in his phone, might have been a few phone calls after this. He scrolled down to see a few chats. He was surprised to find a chat with the name, 'Aamir'. He was her ex, the last message was after the date and time for Aryan's own message and it read, 'Love you too, baby.'
