Vivaan's POV 
I walk towards the room in a fast pace as I am will be very late for the pooja if I don't get ready in twenty minutes now. The auspicious time for burning the Holi is in thirty minutes and mummy will definitely hit me if I don't reach their on time
I halt my feet in a quick motion as I see the door of the closet slightly ajar indicating Dhriti is inside. I looked around the room once contemplating on whether to knock or just wait outside for a minute or two. I shake my head as I push the rest of the door open too
My eyes almost bulge out as I see Dhriti standing on the small ladder and trying to jump as she tried to take something off from the highest shelf in the wardrobe. I take some quick strides and reach her just in time as she losses her footing and almost falls down
I hold her waist stabilizing her as her hands clutched the shirt on my shoulders. My eyes went towards her face and my anger vanished for a second seeing her squinted eyes and terrified expression. I slowly picked her off the ladder and put her down on the floor.
She winced and opens her eyes as I glare at her with a clenched jaw. An expression of relief passed her face as she saw mine and I blinked as she tried putting her wait on her legs. I held her tight again as she jumped and winced in pain when her feet touched the floor
"It hurts. It hurts" she screams and I blinked my eyes as I push her down on the ladder to sit while she jumps. After a second of her staring at me she realized I wanted her to sit on the ladder and just did so while I shook my head
"Just sit here. I'll be back" I said in a bit harsh tone because I don't know why but I was feeling very angry at her. She always does this and never realizes just how clumsy she is. I opened my wardrobe and grabbed a medicinal balm for her pain
"Give it here" I said sitting beside her on the floor and she blinked before slowly moving her leg towards me as I held her leg in a light manner and kept it on my thigh. I took off her slipper and moved my finger on the seemingly hurt ankle
"Does it hurt?" I asked pressing it lightly and she winced in response. I opened the balm and started applying it in slow motion on her leg as she winced in between here and there
"What were you even trying to do?" I asked in a harsh tone as I stood up and she kept on looking at me
"This all happened because of you" she said and I frowned opening my mouth in shock as I stared at her flabbergasted 
"How?" I asked and she tried standing up. My hands involuntarily moved and held her arm to steady her up as she tried standing on her one leg
"Who asked you get the wardrobe custom made according to your height and this useless ladder?" She said glaring at me, wardrobe and ladder. I poked my tongue in my cheeks as I stared at her 
"I still don't get how this happened because of me?" I said as she continued glaring at me for minutes
"If the wardrobe wasn't so large according to your height, I wouldn't have to jump on this useless thing to get my dress" she said and I nodded my head understanding her point as I saw her in front of my wardrobe and she literally looked so small, almost bringing a smile on my face
"Which one do you want" I asked moving my head little and pointing towards the closet as she looked at me with shock written all over her face
