Chapter 10

Chapter - 11

After roaming around for a few minutes, sid brought roli to his room. 

"Welcome to my favorite place" sid exclaimed as roli entered in. 

It was a large room with modern designing, and a balcony attached to it. 

"It's beautiful" roli was amazed by the beauty of the room. 

"Yes it is" sid said in a dreamy voice, gazing at her with a smile. 

Roli's cheeks turned red as she felt his strong gaze. She turned facing her back at him so that she could hide her blushing cheeks from him.

Sid moved near her and stood closely behind her. 

"You want to tell me something?" He whispered in a husky voice that shivered her.

Roli turned to him, who was looking at her curiously. She looked directly into his eyes, making him even more restless. 

"Thank you" roli said, making him confused. 

"For what?" Sid's expression changed drastically as he heard her words.

"This is the first time I'm celebrating rakshabandhan and it happened cause of you. So, thanks" roli explained with a smile. 

"In that case, there are lots of things that gonna happen in your life from now on.. cause of me. Isn't it hard for you to thank me all the time? And yeah, I don't mind if you thank me through actions rather than words" sid winked at her with a mischievous smile. 

"No wonder why everybody calls you flirting expert" roli commented.

Sid was left dumbfounded at her comment. It took him a while to say "who the hell said that to you?". 

"No need to say. Anyone with eyes can see that" roli smiled at his expression. 

"What can I do if girls are crazy about me. I can't make them sad by just ignoring them, right?" Sid tried to cover up. 

"You know this is the first time I've come out alone without my parents" roli switched the topic, clearly not interested in listening to him talking about the other girls. 

"Oh.. your parents are so strict" sid said as he leaned back onto the couch. 

"Not strict, they're just being protective. Sometimes being in a family with political background isn't as good as people think. We may have to face the worse at sometimes. And my papa is very considerate about our safety" roli calmly explained. While sid listened to her like an attentive student. 

"Then what all the stories you made to make your dad agree to let you go alone today?" Sid was curious to know what kind of story she might have made up. 

Roli signalled him to come near window and showed him a van parked at opposite side of the villa. "I didn't make up any story. I just told the truth and papa agreed to send me along with these bodyguards". 

After looking at the van and roli alternatively, sid broke out into laugh.

"What happened?" Roli looked at him puzzled.

"Roli, you've come here with a van full of bodyguards but, saying as if you've come alone" sid laughed again. 

"Still this is the first time I'm coming out without my parents. And I did this for you but you're making fun of me" Roli pouted angrily at him and tried to go out but sid quickly pulled her back. 

"What did you say?" He asked, anticipated. 

"I'm not talking to you. Go laugh as much as you want" roli kept trying to move out of his hold. 

"You said you came for me" sid looked at her excitedly. Roli just realized that she spilled out. 

"No.. it's nothing" she tried to deny, looking away from him. 

"Roli" sid cupped her face in his palms, making her to look into his eyes. 

"If you keep me waiting for any longer then be sure that I'll take my revenge in our first  ni..." Roli placed her palm on his lips, interrupting him. 

Sid held her hand and took it off of his mouth with a smile. Bringing her hand near to his lips, he watched her reaction. He gently kissed her hand while she smiled. 

"I got my reply" sid said and pulled her into a hug. Roli too wrapped her hands around his waist and completed the hug. 

Sid felt like he had won the entire world when he gracefully embraced her inside his arms. 

"I love you, too" roli confessed even before he said anything. 

Sid was taken back by the sudden surprise. He broke the hug and looked into her eyes as he wasn't expecting her to say those words directly by herself. 

"Say that again" he said looking at her like an excited kid. 

"We should go back" roli tried to divert the topic but got no success as she was again pulled back by sid. But, this time she was startled as he quickly pressed down his lips on hers' as soon as he pulled her towards him. 

Roli's eyes shut down at the very moment. A shiver got down her spin as she felt him kissing her lips. Sid didn't deepen the kiss and pulled back in a few moments as he hugged her again.
