Chapter 6
He is beyond shock now, ok, so that's why she wanted to come early because their family were coming to see her, and his brother likes the same girl he does. Oh what a destiny, he would have never guessed, she would be the one here, when he was coming upstairs to look at her sister in law, he and his brother had a deal while coming here that he would be the one to look at her first, now he thought he shouldn't have made the deal, he made it and now is facing a heartbreak.
"Uh, so that's why you wanted to come early?" he asked avoiding her eyes, hurt clearly latch his voice. He can't see her now, if he will then, he himself don't know what he would do. He couldn't make her see him helpless or he doesn't want her to see his teary eyes.
He still has remember the day on the wedding they both had seen each other, and the moment he spent with her was the best memorable and never to forgotten moment. And the way she had spoken to him, never a girl had tried on him and most girls seduce him, but not her. And that day he knew she was something special.
"Yes, I guess" she whispers. Her heart breaks into million pieces; somehow she had managed to imagine him in place of his prince charming. She gets excited whenever he was around. She feels the butterflies in her tummy, whenever he touches her. Only a mere voice of him, make her shiver.
And now, it all broke, the dream she had some times before had broke into pieces. She was thinking of him as her crush but now she knows it was more than anything than having a mere crush. A crush doesn't feels or doesn't gives a heart break, a crush doesn't make you upset. A mere crush doesn't make you angry thinking another girl with your crush. It's more than the crush she has on her boss.
"So, what you say? Do you like me?" he asked pretending to be the man, came to see her. But on the depth of his heart he wishes that she should reject him. She should reject, so that this matter can stop here and he could take some steps with her instead of his brother.
"I- I, don't know" she said without glancing him and turns around to hide the tears just about to slip, which she wipe quickly. It shouldn't be happening she said. But she loves her sister and she can't take her place.
Footsteps are heard to upstairs and her mother face came clearly. She was talking with someone on the other side of the phone.
"Yes, yes. It was for her, they told that they don't want anything except her" she paused for a minute to hear the person speaks. "Yes, his name is Swayam Singhania and the proposal has come for Sharon"
Her hearts rapidly beats on her chest; she could only hear the pounding sound of her heart. Finally the truth had come out, he hasn't came here for Sharon, a sigh escape her lips and she turns to face him only to see a ghost of smile spread across his lips.
Does he know? The thought reach her but she shakes her head not too sure of it. And the next she finds out in warm arms collided with a tone chest with a bear hug. The warms spread her body made her inside flatter.
She couldn't hold herself and wraps her arms around his waist and grip him tight as if never to let go of him. He sighs, when her arms wrap around him, the feeling he has waited to feel has now come, and it was more than bliss to hold her like this.
He had only dreamt of it and now she is actually in his arms and he never want to let the time slip. He wants the time to stop for more so that he could hold her and cherish her. He wants to cherish the moment more and more until he would satisfy, but around her it's not even possible.
Both found out about the proposal of their brother and sister, they became happy knowing that, at least they don't have to feel sad of knowing the one you are having crush on, will marry your own brother or sister. Wouldn't it would be awkward.
Swayam and Sharon just stand their feeling awkward; they couldn't comprehend what to do? Though they can see that their respective brother and sister are holding each other and they shouldn't let that happened. But something made them stop, they saw the love their brother and sister have for each other.
They couldn't just deny the fact that its only the love, the way they are holding each other, the smile crept on their lips says it all. They should be happy of them. So to give them some alone time they were about to leave when Sharon and Kriya's mother called for Kriya.
Kriya and Rey jerk back. She couldn't hide her blush, and his slight chuckle only makes her cheek pinker. The slight tent pink on her cheek make him to kiss her, and without wasting time he did leaving a open mouth Kriya.
"Uh, you should close your mouth, you may catch flies" a voice said closing her open mouth. Both turn their head to find Swayam and Sharon watching them with amusement. She became embarrassed and slightly steps aside from Rey making him frown.
"uh, i- me- he- we" Kriya stutters, words not forming in mouth whether to make an excuse what she was doing with a stranger or she should tell the truth about the known stranger. And then she decided that she should tell her sister about him as her boss.
"He is my boss" she said and look she got from Sharon made her jaw drop, Sharon had a knowing smile. She knew that this is the man Kriya was dreaming about last night and the way she was murmuring his name in her sleep, she knows her sister is in love.
Rey jerk his head toward Kriya, ok it hurts knowing she introduce him as his boss, but what was that when they were hugging each other and went to a world where they only find each other and no one.
"Ok, so we should go downstairs everyone is waiting for our answers" Swayam said motioning him and Sharon.
Kriya and Rey nodded and all went downstairs. Everyone was waiting for them anxious about the answers and when they see the blush in Sharon face they knew they were going to plan a grand wedding.
It was time for the departure of Singhania family; they made all the rituals of the engagement since they don't want to wait more. Kriya was busy in arranging the gifts when someone took her arm and drag her to a dark room. She was about to scream when a cold hand cover her mouth. She sees the eyes of the one that has captivated her heart and she sighs in relief. But again anger busted out and she bite his hand and she immediately took away his hand wincing.
"What the?" he shouts but again remember he had took her in this dark room and whisper.
"Why did you bite?"
"How dare you drag me like that?" she shouts but he again covers her mouth in his one hand. She tried to bite him again but he had now held a tight grip and he pull her towards him holding her waist in other hand tightly without hurting her. She squirms and tries to pull back but all goes in vain.
"I just want to do one thing" he whispers in her ear making her breath catch in throat and she stops struggling to pull back.
She raises her one eyebrow asking him and what is after a sigh. And the next thing he did make her stands still in her place with her mouth open. And her hand slowly goes up to her cheek where she could feel the tingling sensation of his lips.
