"You got to be kidding me " Natasha gaped at Seema who set upset.. "He actually ditched you last night.. "
Seema felt more depressed.. "When i cameback he was gone. God knows where.. And he didint even come to office today.. " She sighed sadly.. "I hope he isint sick again.. "
Natasha shook her head taking a sip from her drink.. " You care so much for him and he hardly even glance at you.. " She pressed Seema's hand.. "Listen to me Seema forget about him before you end up hurt.. "
Seema grimaced on her words.. "You know i cant forget him. I have feelings for him.. "
"Then get some courage and tell him ! " Natasha spoke firmly..
Seema stared at her for a while thinking over the matter... "Ok i will talk to him " She nodded her head in agreement..
"Whats the time.. " Armaan asked in his sleepy voice as he felt her shift beside him.. Shilpa sighed and buried her head on the pillow.. "Past 3 pm.. "
Armaan grinned at her annoyance.. "Thats a hell of time for sleep.. " He sank on the bed blissfully.. "I am so relaxed.. "
Shilpa turned around facing him with a frown.. She touched his forehead.. " Good that Your fever is gone "
"Its gone long back.. " He rolled his eyes and stared in her eyes lovingly.. "I wont say there arent people who care for me.. But no one can care for me like the way you do.. "
"Just like you do " She gave a soft smile to him.. "We take care of eachother.. "
He grew silent and spoke... "Why are you not willing to comeback with me..?"
"You already know why " Shilpa spoke not meeting his gaze.. "I am not exactly what your parents want "
He grew angry and pulled her close.. "We both know they cant change anything.. They cant take you away from me.. "
Shilpa shook her head as her lips trembled.. "That wont stop them from trying.. Why cant you understand i dont want to loose you. "
As she turned away from him , burying her face in the pillow he realized she had got angry with him.. He sighed feeling miserable and upset. No matter how hard he tried to take away her insecurities she wouldnt listen. But he knew he couldnt press her too hard..
"I am sorry.. " He spoke hugging her close.. She lay still without a response which worried him..
Minutes passed but no response came.. "Are you still angry.. ? I said i am sorry.. " Still no response from her. She just lay underneath him stiffly.. He frowned badly as he felt her take deep breaths..
"Shilpa " He nudged her turning her around so she could face him.. Astonished her stared down at her and laughed.. " And then Cinderella fell asleep.. "
"Armaan... Armaan !! Listen to me.. " Seema called out as she came beside Armaan in a hurry.. Armaan glanced at her surprised and then smiled.. "Hey Seema. May i ask you why are you running.. "
"What am i supposed to do then.. " She shrugged her shoulder with a dramatic sigh.. "You always keep running away. So in order to catch up with you others need to run to.. Even last night you ran away.. "
His smile faded off as glanced away troubled.. Seema frowned and spoke softly.. "Tell me something Armaan. What is that so important that you keep hiding from us so badly.. "
"Something very important.. " He mumbled softly... Before she could question again he changed the topic.. "We shall start the work on the project right away.. It needs to be completed soon.. "
Seema followed him inside the cabin quietly.. She had questions in her mind.. Several question for which she knew she was never getting answers. Still it made her curious. What was he always hiding. Whenver she tried to inquire he would avoid the topic somehow. What important thing was this man hiding.. Was he having a secret lover somewhere... Stop it Seema.. She scolded herself silently.. This is Armaan Mallik.. And instead of doubting on him you need to tell him what you feel.. Maybe he feels something for me.. Maybe he is too shy to tell..
Consoling herself gave her more courage to face him.. Seema stood infront of him and cleared her throat which made him look up from the file.. "What is it Armaan."
Seema was glad she had closed the door. She wished to do the talk alone with him without any disturbance.. "We need to talk Armaan. I have... I need to tell you something very important.. "
He smiled and put down his file.. "Ok then tell me.. "
Seema fiddled with the hem of her kurtha and glanced at him shyly.. "Armaan.. I think... I have some special feelings towards you.. "
He went still at once.. He stared at her with dead shock.. "Excuse me.. "
Seema felt disappointed with his reaction... "I like you Armaan.. I like you a lot.. Maybe even love.. "
Armaan frowned at her badly... Truly she had shocked him with her sudden confession.. He had never thought he would hear something like this from her..
Seema felt upset with his change in expression.. "You dont need to look so upset about it.. "
Armaan glanced away and whispered.. "That is bad.. Very bad.. "
Seema protested at once.. Armaan i have always wanted to tell you. Am sorry i have to say in such a haste. But i really like you.. " She paused for a second and smiled at him expectantly... " Now i want to know how you feel about me.. "
His eyes widened.. He hadnt ever expected this. Even if he knew how she felt beforehand he would have brought a dead stop to this.. He sighed miserably and glanced at her guiltily... "Seema... I am sorry but this is not possible.. I Mean... I have no feeling to you and never will."
Seema stared at him stunned as he stammered out his feelings. She felt crushed and lost. She had expected he would have been getting atleast a little feeling towards her.. But everything had turn upside down.. At the moment she regretted confessing her feelings..
"So may i ask why are you rejecting my feelings.. " She bit out after a moment of silence.. Armaan shook his head instantly.. "I am not rejecting... Oh maybe i am.. Thats the best thing i could do.. You have to understand Seema. You cant force someone to love you.. "
His words hurts so bad which angered her more.. She clenched her fist and spoke tightly... "Is there someone else in your life.. "
" I really dont wish to discuss this Seema.. " He spoke firmly "For you the best would be to forget this crush on me.. "
She protested again.. "Its no crush... " She spoke desperately.. "I really like you Armaan.. You have to understand me.. "
"And you need to understand me Seema.. " He spoke gently... "You cant have me. And we are not meant for eachother.. Soon you will realize it... "
She stood stunned as he walked out of the cabin in hurry.. She stared at his retreating back as hurtful tears formed in her eyes..
Armaan raised his eyebrow as he stood beside her while she cooked.. "I was talking to you Shilpa. And i thought you were upset with me.. " He shook his head.. "And you were busy falling asleep.. "
She giggled.. "Sleeping helps me to control my annoyance.. "
He snorted at her and stood distracted for while lost in his thoughts.. She shook her head and leaned towards him.. "Give me a kiss.. "
He rolled his eyes and kissed her softly.. Shilpa realized something was bothering him. He had been distracted since he came.. "Whats bothering you Armaan ?? "
Her gentleness made him smile.. He took her hand and took her to the sofa.. Shilpa set beside him and frowned.. "Something went very wrong right ?? "
Armaan stared down for a while and nodded.. "Very bad.. Something unexpected happen today.. "
Shilpa shifted uncomfortably.. She had a feeling she was going to hear something not so good.. "Tell me Armaan... Whats bothering you.. "
"Seema " Armaan replied quietly... " She told me she has feelings for me.. "
Shilpa didint react... She set silent for a long moment.. He couldnt make out whether she was upset or angry. She showed no expressions..Armaan pressed her hand concerned.. "Shilpa.. I know its shocking to hear.. Even i was stunned i still cant believe.. "
Shilpa shook her head disagreeing.. " I had a feeling about this. I had a feeling this was happening.. "
"But.. " Armaan was confused... "How ?? "
Shilpa just smiled... " When you told me about her i had a feeling she was getting some feelings about you.. I was scared it would come true.. "
Armaan sighed and buried his head in his hand.. Shilpa rubbed his shoulder comfortingly.. "I didint want this to happen.. " Armaan spoke softly.. "I dont want her to be hurt.. "
Shilpa nodded agreeing with him.. "Yes.. She is expecting the impossible thing to happen.. "
Armaan glanced at her with a smug look.. "You sound so sure she cant have me.. "
"That i am " She grinned at him.. "I know how madly you are in love with me.. " She mused dramatically which made him chuckle..
The playfulness faded off as she grew serious.. " I May be soft hearted to everyone, but i am too selfish enough to give up on you to anyone else... If she wants you she have to face me first.. "
"Woah " Armaan smiled... "That sounds pretty good. So you mean if she becomes a villain and tries to snatch me... "
"I will snatch you back from her.. " She winked at him.. " She never had you. She never will. You are mine.. "
He loved when she would speak with such confidence.. He loved the way she had trust towards their relationship.. And it exactly made him forget all his worries..
"I am yours forever.. " He smiled at her kissing her cheeks...
She smiled back at him and then frowned.. " I think you should talk to her gently Armaan. Explain her as a good friend.. maybe she will understand.. "
"I guess you are right.. " He drawled softly.. "I will do it. "
He spotted Seema who set in the bench in the dark corridor.. He sighed and set beside her leaning to the wall.. "Hey Seema.. "
"Hi " Seema replied stiffly...
"Are you still angry with me.. " Armaan asked her softly... Seema just shook her head as she didint feel like talking to him.. Too much thoughts kept running in her head..
"Try to understand me Seema.. " Armaan spoke gently.. "I really do care for you. But as a good friend. You have always been a great friend to me.. I can never forget that.. "
Seema relaxed a bit and glanced at him... Armaan spoke again.. "Whatever talk we did i guess we should forget it.. Its better to not talk about something which cant ever happen.. I cant loose you. You are one of my good friend.. Do you think we should end this friendship for such a silly reason.. "
Seema studied him for a while and gave a nod agreeing with him.. "I guess you are saying correct Armaan.. "
He relaxed feeling relieved.. "I am so happy you understood. We cant loose this friendship.. We will always remain great friends.. Right ?? "
Seema smiled with him and agreed.. "Yes Armaan.. Friends forever.. "
He pressed her hand smiling... "I know.. I trust you on this "
But I trusted you !!!
"How can you do this to me Seema... I trusted you... "
He turned back as their parents approached them...
"Armaan !! We are happy for you Both.. Seema just told us.. We are so glad finally you agreed to get engage to Seema "
