Swaron FF: An Unforgettable Mistake (Updated Chapter 13) - Page 4

Waking up the next morning felt like the entire world had experienced an earthquake. Thankfully it was a Sunday so she could be at home to collect her thoughts on whatever had happened the night before. She felt quite annoyed that it was already 12pm when she woke up, her day felt like it had already slipped away from her grasp. She had always been an early riser and an organised person, almost always.

5 Years Ago

"Sharon you drive me crazy, you know that don't you." He whispered in her ear and left a trail of kisses down her long neck. Both lying nude, and wrapped in each other's arms, on his bed. It was 6 in the morning and she had no intention of attending class today, but for a very unfortunate reason instead. She had an appointment, a much rather important one at the hospital. Swayam on the other hand had no intention of letting go of Sharon that morning; the weekend was the only time she could secretly spend in his apartment with him. It had been a month since she last came, her rigorous hours attending classes and assessments kept her away too long. She looked paler and weaker from all the stress, and this was their only alone time' for which he was grateful. He dipped his head lower to kiss her intensely. Moving himself on top of her, and then he hovered over her, "I just wish you move in with me, you have no idea how much I miss you when you're not here in my sight." Finishing the sentence somewhere in-between the kisses on her lips. She kissed him back every time, she loved him and there were no two questions about that. But she couldn't ruin the hard work she had put in to make her life and career come to this stage. And he would never understand that it was a good enough reason for to get an abortion, especially when he had been proposing for so much longer. This didn't mean that she loved him any less, it just meant that she also loved herself, and there was nothing wrong with that. A woman can't simply make someone else happy if her own happiness wasn't met, and raising a child in the middle of her career was defiantly not going to make her any happier. She didn't have to be the torch of the sacrificial women; her parents raised her better than that. This world had made her better than that.

"Sharon what's wrong, why are you so quiet, you seem so distant this morning?" Sharon just tried to smile it away, "I'm just drooling over what I see." Swayam laughed, "I know you better than that, the college stress getting to you? Colombia's no walk in the park so I get the pressure you're under. Plus you work yourself too hard, I didn't worry half as much as you back in my days." Her eye's perked up, "says the man that went to Yale on a scholarship?" she skeptically stated. He kissed her forehead, "says the man that loves and worries about you more than anything."

She pulled his head down and kissed him and then rolled on top of him to straddle him.

Swayam smirked, "I see someone's eager even after last night, I didn't think you'd have it in you to wake up this morning, let alone go for another round." She partly blushed and then shut him up by kissing him.

She fake frowned, "you wound me Mr Shekhawat. Are you just making excuses because you don't have the energy? I for one have an endurance to beat, " she finished with a smirk and a tantalizing kiss upon his chest. He acted almost as if his ego had been shot, letting Sharon make her way up to his lips again he automatically took over the control. That morning was the last time they made love.

Just as they exhausted themselves out, she lied to him that she had to get ready for an extra class. But instead took the cab to the hospital. Her consciousness trying to reassure her that one-day Swayam would understand and forgive her. Or if not she would move on herself in life.

Back to the Present

From her brewing coffee to going about her day as normally as delusional being does, Sharon did everything. She even tried getting ahead with some paperwork for Monday, but her mind was only on one thing, what would Swayam say today. Her heart at times would palpate with fear and the wrath she would have to face from her family if she was forced to tell her them about their involvement. All her mind did was race in every direction and open ever possibility to get out of this situation. Swayam marrying Kriya was out of question, cause she wouldn't stand him being a part of her life and then sleeping with her sister. It was just too much; this is where she realised that she may have to surrender, if that was even an option on the table.

Pulling out her phone she did the one thing she never imagined herself doing, calling Swayam. She wasn't even sure if his number was still the same but she called it anyway. Only 4 rings later Swayam picked up, "I'm guessing this is a way for you to negotiate with me?" Without even greeting he knew that it was her, and he obviously knew her reason to call.

She almost froze on the phone, partly because she didn't know what to say anymore but then again she did. "Please don't do this." She just begged.

He wasn't smiling as he thought he would be to see her in defeat, he was just numb. "I don't think I can Sharon, you put to many holes in my heart, and instead of filling them up I want to puncture some in yours." She was genuinely scared at what he was capable of at that very moment. "If the end result is going to be me marrying you Swayam then don't drag this out painfully with my family. You want me to suffer right? Then torcher me but don't involve them; it's not fair at all. I'll marry you whenever and however you like but just drop this."

There he had Sharon exactly where he wanted, trapped in her own head and heart. He was glad that he didn't have to painfully drag this out with her family, they treated him like their own son and they surely didn't deserve this. Swayam couldn't do that to the people who he called his parents.

He paused on the phone and then spoke, "I guess I should inform my parents that you and me are getting married shouldn't I?" He sarcastically broke the silence and then continued, "and you should break it to your family too, I mean we are trying to make this genuine aren't we?" Sharon could have punched him in the face if he was in front of her; he wanted this to play out in front of his parents as naturally as possible. When in reality things couldn't be much further away?

Sharon couldn't be colder in that second, "yeah, I suppose. Well I have a wedding to plan, so speak to you when I desperately have no other option."
