Part 26 :
For the third time she tried to move away from his embrace but gave up staring up at the ceiling with a grim look.. Ignoring her struggles Armaan lay up on her in between nuzzling his lips on her neck.. A sensation grew within her as last night's memories flooded back into her mind making it more difficult for her to resist him.. Being close to him it was hard to ignore his scent, his touch.. What bothered her most was the words that were about to come out of her mouth.. I love you.. ? Was it really going to come out of her heart.. Did the words form in her lips meaning ..
Shilpa came out of her thoughts as he set up on one elbow and stared down at her with an amused smile..
Armaan : Just now someone was buxy wrestling.. How come so silent..
Getting back to her senses she started to struggle again when he chuckled..
Armaan : And Ms. Attitude starts again.. Why are you trying to leave.. ?
Shilpa : I am hungry.. Breakfast..
Armaan : But Why...
Her gaze went down on his bare chest and found it hard to look away.. He groaned as he saw the color rising on her cheeks..
Ignoring her pleas he leaned down brushing his lips on hers making her tremble with the soft touch.. He moved his lips on her hair and nuzzled it with a smile..
Armaan : Gosh i want you soo much..
She glanced in his eyes as his was made her blush.. For onething she realized she was developing some strong feelings towards him.. Indeed strong feelings.. But did he have the same feelings towards her.. ?
Shilpa : Why do you want me.. ?
He glanced at her frowning, for a second not knowing what to say.. He stared at her confused while she tried to search for an answer in his blank eyes..
Armaan : Dont ask me that question..
Before she could speak a word he got up from bed walking inside the washroom leaving behind Shilpa dishearten..
As they finished the breakfast in the restaurant Armaan shook his head as he noticed Shilpa glaring at him continuously..
Armaan : Is glaring your hobby or i am getting a special dose today..
She looked down at her food gritting her teeth..
Shilpa : Special Food for Special Words..
Armaan : What are you saying.. ?
Shilpa got up from her seat giving a fake smile..
Shilpa : As usual you wont understand my words... Just leave me alone for a while Armaan..
Saying this she walked towards the bar area and took a seat.. The bartender passed a juice towards her which she took immediately.. Sipping it for a while she calmed herself and tried to get up when a stranger approached with a big smile..
Stranger : Hello beautiful lady.. I am Nikhil.. May i know your name.. ?
Shilpa gave a hesitant smile glancing at Armaan who kept himself buxy with phone..
Shilpa : Sorry to disappoint you but i dont talk to strangers..
Shilpa tried to walk away when he blocked her way with a lazy grin.. Armaan cut his call and narrowed his eyes as he noticed the scene infront of him.. Keeping himself cool he approached the guy and placed a hand on his shoulder..
Armaan : Excuse me Any problem..
Nikhil turned towards him and glared
Nikhil : No problem.. Go and mind your own business..
Armaan stopped himself from beating up the guy black and blue.. Instead a plan formed in his mind.. Armaan glanced at Shilpa with a grin..
Armaan : Are you doing fine Mam.. Do you need any help..
Shilpa snapped at him in anger instantly..
Shilpa : I dont need any help..
Nodding his head he whispered something in Nikhil's ear and led him to a side making Shilpa curious.. What was he upto now..
Armaan dragged him to the corner and whispered..
Armaan : Man dont go after her she is really mad..
Nikhil : Oh shut up.. She looks normal to me..
Armaan : Oh no she isint.. Sometime ago i approached her when she slapped me hard.. Go and give a try but am telling you she is mad she will slap you..
He stared at him doubtfully for a minute..
Nikhil : Am sure she is very normal.. You just see..
As he started to walk away Armaan curse under his breath
Armaan : Shit plan flop.. Time for plan B
With that he dialed Shilpa's number instantly... He stood in corner as she picked up the call..
Shilpa : What are you doing Armaan ?
Armaan : No time for shouting.. You see the guy is coming towards you again..
Shilpa glanced at Nikhil who came towards her with a smile..
Shilpa : Ya So what..
Armaan : Well you see he think you.. You are..
Shilpa spoke softly..
Shilpa : I am What.. ?
Armaan : He thinks you are a hooker..
Shilpa stood fuming in anger and cut the call.. Before he could speak a word she slapped him hard on his cheek cursing him loud..
Shilpa : You freak.. Get lost and stay away from me..
Nikhil passed a look at Armaan in fear and quickly excused himself.. Shilpa stood surprised when Armaan came towards her
Shilpa : He left so easily...
Shilpa walked inside the room fuming in anger while Armaan followed her with the same look..
Armaan : I just cant believe this.. !! You made me work in that big shopping mall for 3 hours and Didint even buy a single thing.. NOT EVEN ONE.. !!
Shilpa : Stop Shouting Armaan..!! What i did was much better than what you did in restaurant..
He shrugged his shoulder and started to take off his shirt.. Shilpa blushed as her anger eased off instead she stared at his bare chest..
Armaan : Ohh hello Madam.. I havent come on Honeymoon to fight with anyone.. What i did was a smart plan..
Shilpa : Stop stripping off.. I am not going to sleep with you..
He put his hand on his waist and smirked
Armaan : Ohh Darling get this on your little mind for the rest of your life you are only going to sleep with me..
Shilpa : Selfish jerk..
He moved close to her with a amused smile..
Armaan : Me and Selfish.. ? Then why are you reacting so bad seeing my body...
She looked away not able to answer him.. He put his hand on her waist and pulled her close rubbing his hand on her forehead..
Armaan : Why unnecessary fights and so much tension.. ? Why are you angry with me.. ?
Shilpa avoided his gaze trying to form words in her mind.. Armaan hugged her softly and whispered in her ear..
Armaan : Is that becauxe of what i said Today.. ?
Shilpa didnt know how to react.. She gripped his shoulder and gave a silent nod when he pulled away and looked in her eyes..
Armaan : What were you expecting me to say.. ?
Shilpa bit her lip seeing the seriousness in his eyes.. She herself didint knew what she wanted to hear from him..
Shilpa : I.. I dont know.. Lets just forget it..
She tried to pull away when he pulled her back into arms and led her to the bed lying down.. Shilpa tried to sit up when he overpowered hers making her helpless again as she lay beneath him staring at him.. As he tried to kiss her she moved her head to side..
Shilpa : Armaan Plzz..
Armaan traced her cheeks with his finger staring down at her intently..
Armaan : What you wanted me to say.. I love you ?
She looked at him stunned with wide eyes trying hard not to react.. A unique sensation flowed through her body hearing the words from his mouth.. Only if he had meant..
Shilpa : No.. I dont mean..
He raised his eyebrow with a teasing grin..
Armaan : So you want to say I love you To me.. ?
Shilpa tried to speak when he sighed and hid his head on the crook of her neck kissing softly.. His favorite position.. Staring up at the ceiling for a long moment she lay without a word.. Unknowingly the words came out of her mouth in a whisper..
Shilpa : What if i actually wanted to say I love you..
She waited expecting to hear some reply.. But none came instead she felt his soft breathing on her neck indicating to her he was definitely asleep.. At the very moment Shilpa closed her eyes not able to decide she was glad or upset that he didint hear her say the words..
*************************************
And the very next moment cleared the confusion in her mind.. In actual she was angry and upset that he slept off without hearing her words... At first she thought she could handle.. But now it was hard to bear his not caring form.. His arrogance was something which kept getting on her nerves..
Armaan set up on the bed drowsy from sleep.. He rubbed his eyes and glanced at Shilpa who kept throwing around clothes furiously searching for something..Not at all a good mood.. He thought..
Armaan : I see someone has woke up with a foul mood..
Shilpa glared at him while he got up from the bed frowning..
Armaan : What.. ? what did i do now.. ?
Shilpa sighed as she glanced around the mess.. Gritting her teeth she started gathering up clothes putting them back in closet ignoring him.. Armaan moved close to her when she brushed of his hands in anger..
Shilpa : Stay away from me..
Armaan : May i know what is happening here..
Shilpa : Nothing is happening.. I am off to breakfast..
She tried to walk past him when he pulled her close..
Armaan : Woahh wait.. !! What is this going on.. ?? Do you mind tell me why are you so mad on me..
She shook her head confused herself why she was overreacting.. She couldnt decide why she was getting mad on him..
Shilpa : I dont know..
Armaan : What you mean i dont know.. You know what Shilpa.. Now seriously things are getting on my nerves.. Firstly i dont understand why you get upset with me.. Will you care to explain me whats my fault Dammit.. !!
To his surprise she set on bed and started to cry covering her face in her hands.. He sighed, running a hand through his hair in frustration..This wasnt something he was planning to see in honeymoon..
As she kept on sobbing he set beside her wondering how to console her..
Armaan : Shilpa plzz.. Shout me on , yell at me.. And even throw around things but plzz dont cry.. I seriously dont know what to do when you cry..
She looked at him in tears and started to laugh softly.. He gave a small smile still unsure of her mood..
Armaan : So you are fine..
Shilpa : NO I AM NOT.. !!
Armaan : Yes thats it.. Shout at me but dont cry...
She shook her head when he pulled her close in his arms..
Shilpa : But i dont want to fight.. I am tired of fighting..
He stared at her for a while thinking over her words.. She waited for him to speak but he stayed silent.. Giving up she tried to move away when he pulled her close to him again..
Armaan : Today spend the whole day with me..Without any argument..
Shilpa : I seriously dont think we can spend a day without fighting..
But suddenly she wasnt much confident about her thinking..
Armaan : For oneday without any fight spend a day with me.. I promise you i will make it beautiful for you.. Just today...
She was surprised hearing the seriousness in his voice.. Giving a silent nod she spoke in a shaken voice..
Shilpa : Ok..Lets try it then...
She expected him to take to her to a lunch.. Specially to some expensive restaurant or visit a grand place.. It was what he liked and always did.. But she was stunned and surprised as he led her to a beautiful lake area which took away her breath.. The beauty and peacefulness of the place warmed her heart.. Awkwardly she kept down the basket near a tree while running a hand on her sundress.. Armaan glanced around and looked at her with a smile..
Armaan : Dont worry you are looking cute in that dress..
She gave a hesitant smile while she glanced at his own dressing.. He was dressed very casually and for the very first time she couldnt help but notice how handsome and young he looked when he dressed in jeans and shirt...
When he caught her stare she looked away blushing..
Shilpa : Armaan.. This place looks so deserted..
Armaan : You dont like it.. ?
Shilpa : No its beautiful.. Very peaceful.. But hardly i can see anyone here..
Armaan : You wont get to see much of resident people here.. Its a very secretive lake...
Her curiousness grew as she set beside him near the big tree...
Shilpa : Secretive... ? What is it Called.. ?
Armaan : Well it comes like this... Chipping Norton Lake..
Shilpa : Chipping What.. ??
Armaan : Norton lake.. I deliberately brought you here..
Shilpa : Oh yes i knew it..
Armaan : What u mean by that.. I thought you wanted me to romance..?
Shilpa : And when did i say THAT.. !!
Armaan : You were the one crying today REMEMBER..
She tried to snap at him but instantly stopped as realization struck her..
Shilpa : We are fighting again..
He stayed quiet and looked away staring at the lake.. She bit her lip and spoke changing the subject..
Shilpa : Are we allowed to take dip on lake..
Armaan : Huh..
Shilpa : I mean.. Swimming..
His eyes lit up as he stood up instantly offering his hand.. She raised her eyebrow taking his hand..
Shilpa : Stop looking so excited I..
Her words came to a halt as he picked her up in his arms moving towards the lake.. Before Shilpa could realize what was coming he threw her into the water while she screamed loud..
Shilpa gasped as the cold water hit hard as she tried to balance in the cold water.. She moved away her hair from her face and glared at Armaan who kept grinning at her..
Shilpa : You are such a Freak Armaan Mallik..!! Its so cold here..
Armaan : Is it so.. Let me join you and make it hot..
She shook her head with wide eyes as he started to take off his shirt...
Shilpa : You are stripping off.. IN HERE..??
Armaan : Ohh hello Just removing my shirt ok.. Anyways other than you no one else is gawking at my body right now..
She flushed as she turned away from him blushing..
Shilpa : I am not gawking at you..
Soon she felt him move close to her within the cold water of the lake.. She moved away turning other side when he spoke...
Armaan : Shilpa..I forgot to tell you there are snakes in this lake..
She gasped and moved towards him hugging tightly.. He pulled her close upto his face level and whispered in her ears..
Armaan : Oh sorry my mistake... That was some other lake..
She punched him on his chest and tried to talk when he interrupted kissing her passionately.. Soon she felt the coldness pass away as the kiss started to heat up.. He held her face kissing her hungrily while she moaned suddenly realizing they were in a open place where anyone could see.. Breaking the kiss she spoke in shaking voice...
Shilpa : Armaan we are not in room..
Armaan : Huh..As if you let me do anything in room..
She gripped his shoulders as he moved his lips down one her neck licking away the drops of water slowly.. Shilpa closed her eyes and hugged him as he started to shower kisses on her neck traveling down on her shoulder biting her skin teasingly..
Several minutes passed lost in his touch she moaned as she felt his hand caress her bare back.. Instantly her eyes snapped open as she abruptly moved back and stared down at her.. Her dress.. Where was her dress..??
Shilpa : My dress.. !!
Armaan : Here in my hand..
She glanced at Armaan who stood with a teasing look on his face holding her dress in his hand.. Ignoring her shouts he swam towards the surface and got out from the lake..
Shilpa : Give it back Armaan.. RIGHT NOW.. !!
Armaan : I am not at all interested in getting back there..Come here to me and get it..
Shilpa : Armaan stop it.. Its not funny..
She tried to swim to the surface but noticed a man who came towards the lake.. Instantly she back away in the foggy water making sure her body wasnt visible.. As the guy got into the lake little far from her she turned away getting scared and feeling horrible..
Armaan took the towel drying up her hair while she kept crying nonstop.. Feeling bad he set beside her pulling her close..
Armaan : I seriously didint knew someone will show up like that.. If i knew i wouldnt have..
To his surprise she started to laugh loudly.. He passed a confused look and tried to touch her when she slapped him hard and stormed off in anger..
Shilpa : Next time..Think twice before you strip me in Public.. !!
In the middle of night Shilpa set up on the bed furiously irritated with his behavior..
Shilpa : Why are you disturbing me in the middle of night Armaan..!!
He set quiet staring at her uneasily for a minute..
Armaan : I want to..
Shilpa : I dont need explanations.. I was going to say sorry for slapping you but not anymore..!
He raised his eyebrow in humor..
Armaan : Ahan... Why is it so..?
Shilpa : You left me all alone in this room in night.. And now u are coming back.. ?? I dont want to talk to you..
He gave her a serious look.. She grew quiet as she noticed the trouble look on his face..
Armaan : Tell me onething clearly Shilpa... Do you feel i dont care for you..
She stayed quiet not knowing what to answer...
Armaan gave a bitter smile shaking his head..
Armaan :Then let me tell you i am very bad in expressing feelings.. Specially in words.. If you expect me to say anything.. I may disappoint you badly..
She sighed passing a smile at him..
Shilpa : I am glad you told me that.. I have committed myself fully into this relationship so i cant see..
He interrupted her words smoothly taking a box from his pocket..
Armaan : If i wasnt committed i wouldnt have married you.. Shilpa.. I have brought something for you..
He took out a beautiful silver necklace from the box and placed it on her neck securing it nicely... She let out a sigh getting touched with his sweet gesture.. Something she was waiting from long to see..
Armaan : I went to clear out my mind today.. Was strolling outside when i noticed the the necklace.. So i thought u might like it..
She touched the necklace getting teary..
Shilpa : I dont only like it.. I love it...Armaan..
He interrupted her by kissing her deeply while placing her down on the bed..
After their love making he moved to side pulling her close to him nuzzling her hair..
Armaan : Gosh.. You dont know how much i love you..
She gasped hearing his words.. Placing her hand on his chest she turned facing him stunned..
Shilpa : Did you say I love you...
He narrowed his eyes avoiding the topic..
Armaan : Did i say so..You know right i want you..
She closed her eyes disappointingly as the same word came back again..
She tried to turn back but he held her close kissing her softly.. She couldnt help but feel sad again... As he got into deep sleep she stared in his eyes and whispered helplessly..
Shilpa : Why did i have to fall in love with a idiot like you.. I love you Armaan Mallik..
************************************************
Part 28
He slept soundly unaware of her scrutinizing gaze on him.. She set up on the bed and stared at him for a while as last night's incident came back in her mind.. But unlike last night this time her anger rose as she recalled everyone.. If he had meant to confess what was the point of backing away suddenly.. ?
Shilpa : I will never understand you Armaan Mallik..
She felt him stir on the bed trying to move close to her.. But with a quick move she got up from the bed.. Armaan set up sleepily while he noticed she stormed off to Washroom in anger..
Armaan : Am asking you last time you are coming or not..
Shilpa : I will have breakfast in room.. If you have problem feel free to go..
Armaan : Wait a minute.. Are you actually pregnant.. ?
She shot him a look putting away the magazine..
Shilpa : I think we have gone through this process already..
Armaan : What.. Means you were Pregnant and you had a baby..
She glared at him in irritation and anger..
Shilpa : Stop cracking jokes Armaan..
His grin faded as his expressions grew more serious..
Armaan : Whatelse can i do.. ? Seems like you havent still forgiven me or you are not even ready to let go the past..
Shilpa : What can i do if you keep reminding me about that everytime..
Armaan : What is the main point of argument here.. I am really not understanding you i dont know what you are expecting from me Shilpa..
She ran a hand in hair in frustration.. What was this happening to her.. Why suddenly a uneasy feeling was rising in her heart.. Tears welled up in her eyes as her confusion grew with each passing second.. Armaan tensed up as she glanced at him in tears..
Shilpa : Thats the main problem here Armaan.. I expect too much from you..
He grew more uneasy seeing her cry.. Something which always bothered him to the core..
Armaan : Shilpa plzz..
She cut back his words clearing tears..
Shilpa : Forget it.. Forget whatever i said... Even i dont know why the hell i am behaving like this..
He sighed glancing at her worried..
Armaan : Why dont you just calm down and speak up openly.. Maybe i could help..
She glanced and him and gave a silent nod sitting on the edge of the bed.. He set beside her as the awkwardness grew between them making them more uneasy... He tried to form words when she spoke breaking the silence..
Shilpa : Your behavior is bothering me..
Armaan : What..
Shilpa : Yes.. Your behavior.. Why are you giving me feeling that you are not committed in this relation..
He frowned shaking his head in protest..
Armaan : I think i have cleared out my feelings last night..
Shilpa : You know what Armaan.. Now i feel you are really running away from reality.. You confess things and back away from them..
He stood up as tension grew between them..
Armaan : I run away.. ?? Dont you name me a coward..
Shilpa : That YOU ARE.. !! Face it Armaan..
Armaan : Will you stop shouting and speak like a normal person..
Shilpa : Thats possible when you stop driving me CRAZY.. !
He shook his head running a hand in his hair..
Armaan : You know what women.. For the first thing today i am taking you to a psychiatrist you have started to freak me out..
Shilpa : Dont you dare call me Mad Armaan Mallik..
Armaan : Ohh Darling whatelse should i assume now your behavior is getting weird day by day.. And adding to it Mood swings..
She stared at him in anger and burst into tears..
Shilpa : I hate you JERK.. !!
Armaan : Oh I love you too..
She shot him a strange look when his expression changed looking away...
Armaan : Uhh actually i meant to say..
Shilpa : There.. Again you backed away from your words.. I HATE YOU Armaan..
Again she stormed off into the washroom crying leaving behind Armaan confused..
He hesitated before opening the washroom door.. Giving a silent knock he opened it and sighed seeing her condition..
Shilpa set down leaning to the wall while water kept dripping down on her from shower.. Trying to lighten the atmosphere he spoke jokingly..
Armaan : In mood of washing clothes.. ?
Shilpa : Leave me alone..
Armaan : Then what are you doing..
She looked up at him with red eyes.. His jaw clenched seeing her condition..
Shilpa : I am... Cooling of my mind..
Armaan : Sooo.. Can i join you.. Even my mind needs cooling..
Letting out a snort she got up from the floor and tried to walk past him when he pinned her to the wall.. His clothes drenched due to shower but he wasnt bothered.. Instead he stared at her intently making her uneasy.. Armaan raised his hand and moved away the wet tendrils from her face caressing it..
Armaan : What is bothering you.. ?
She remained silent thinking over what to say..
Armaan : Atleast tell me what mistake i am doing..
He waited her to speak but she remained silent disappointing him suddenly.. He moved back and walked out from the washroom without a word..
As he left Shilpa slid down sitting back in the floor staring at place.. How she wanted to confess infront of him.. But it scared her that he might walk away again.. Suddenly she felt scared to be rejected...
They spent the day silently without much exchange of words.. Shilpa felt peace as she was glad no more fights were happening.. But Armaan was frustrated with the sudden tension rising between them , specially he found her silence unbearable..
As the day passed and faded into night they walked inside the restaurant to carry on with dinner.. Shilpa took a seat when Armaan excused himself to receive a call.. She passed a curt nod and looked around when she noticed a old women who set in opposite passing a warm smile at her.. She smiled back at her hesitantly and looked away.. Just then Shilpa felt her come towards her with a lingering smile..
Old lady : Would you mind if i take a seat beside you.. I would like to have a word with you young lady..
Shilpa : Sure plzz..
The women smiled at her and set beside her taking her hand.. Shilpa felt strange seeing the sudden affection coming from her.. But she couldnt deny it felt good..
Old lady : Is that your husband..
Shilpa : Ya.. We got married recently..
Old lady : Ohh i see.. I have noticed you both come here several times.. I couldnt help but stare at you both.. Am sorry if i sound voyeur..
Shilpa wondered why she didint notice someone stare at them occasionally..
Shilpa : No its fine..
Old lady : Now i really know this is not my business.. Still i cant help but notice the sullen look on your face.. I sense some sort of tension among you if i am not wrong..
Shilpa : But.. How did you know..
Old lady : Young lady.. I have seen life more than you.. So in experience i can see the expressions and clearly make out whats running in minds..
Shilpa sighed and glanced down biting her lips..
Old lady : I just came to give you one piece of advice Young Lady.. If there is tension among you as a wife be the first one to solve the matter.. Try not to increase the problems between you.. You are newly married it will take a lot of effort and time to strengthen your marriage.. If he is not able to understand whats wrong in here then make him understand..
Shilpa stared at her in awe listening to her intently.. She couldnt believe this was someone who was understanding her..
Shilpa : I will keep your words in mind.. But whats your name Mam ..?
She shook his head getting up from her seat..
Old lady : You dont need to know my name.. Neither i need to know yours.. As in the end of the day we are just mere strangers.. Just keep in mind my advice it might help you..
Shilpa passed a smile as she walked away from her.. Armaan returned back to the table narrowing his eyes at the old women..
Armaan : You know that women... ?
His heart warmed as she glanced at him with a smile..
Shilpa : No.. But she felt like a close person..
Armaan : Why are you smiling...
She looked away taking up the menu..
Shilpa : Smiling is better than fighting..
Shilpa tried to cover up her smile as she noticed Armaan who set beside her looking at her with a scared expression..
Shilpa : Armaan .. Are we going to sit like this whole night.. I am sleepy
He ignored her words and stared at her with same expression..
Shilpa : Are we playing a horror show here.. Look at your face..
Ignoring him Shilpa lay down on bed staring up at the ceiling.. As then he moved on his favorite position , placing his head on the crook of her neck.. Shilpa sighed closing her eyes as she couldnt help but melt with his gesture.. She was almost getting into sleep when he spoke..
Armaan : I am really not liking this..
She opened her eyes and glanced at him as he moved to her face level staring down at her with a worried expression..
Shilpa : Armaan..
Armaan : Cant you see how much i am trying to change myself.. Just to give us sometime..This relationship sometime i planned the honeymoon.. And what we do coming here again fight.. Just tell me how much should i change to make myself perfect in your eyes..
Shilpa frowned placing her hand on his chest..
Shilpa : Armaan.. You are taking my words wrong.. I never went...
Armaan : So lead to me right away.. For godsake clear it out for me this is really bothering me now..
She hesitated a bit.. Color rose on her cheeks as she looked away.. He noticed the blush on her face but controlled his own desires for the moment..
Shilpa : If you didint mean anything for me... I mean if this relation meant nothing for me me i wouldnt have committed to you on first place.. Funnily and strangely you are perfect for me..
A amused smile formed on his lips..
Armaan : Ok i understood every part excluding Funnily and Strangely... Explain please..
Shilpa narrowed at him..
Shilpa :Funnily we fight like enemies.. And strangely you make me forget everything.. And one more thing Sadly you have too much Arrogance..
Armaan : Wifey even you are gifted with a good attitude...
She tried to speak when he silenced her with moving his lips down on hers kissing her deeply.. She moaned as he pulled her close kissing her , teasing her lips with his tongue.. Breaking the kiss he moved up and caressed her face..
Armaan : Things can be better between us.. Dont you think its worth a try..I am badly trying from my side..
She gave a nod as her mind started to reel.. Maybe this was the right time to confess her feelings to him.. Say what she feel for for him.. And correct things between them..
Shilpa : Armaan.. I need to tell you Something...
She gasped lightly as he brushed his lips on hers..
Armaan : Say it..
Shilpa : Armaan.. I..
She tried to speak in one go.. But his phone rang breaking the moment at once.. He cursed under his breath and took the call irritatedly..
Armaan : Hello...
Shilpa set on bed worriedly as she noticed color draining from his face.. Silently he cut the call and stared at her for a minute.. Shilpa started to grow tensed seeing his expression..
Shilpa : Whose call was it.. ? What happened Armaan.. ??
He hesitated for a long time.. And then spoke softly..
Armaan : Shilpa.. Atul called.. Your Dad..
She stared at him shaking her head as a sudden fear rose..
Shilpa : Papa..
**************************************************
For the third time she tried to move away from his embrace but gave up staring up at the ceiling with a grim look.. Ignoring her struggles Armaan lay up on her in between nuzzling his lips on her neck.. A sensation grew within her as last night's memories flooded back into her mind making it more difficult for her to resist him.. Being close to him it was hard to ignore his scent, his touch.. What bothered her most was the words that were about to come out of her mouth.. I love you.. ? Was it really going to come out of her heart.. Did the words form in her lips meaning ..
Shilpa came out of her thoughts as he set up on one elbow and stared down at her with an amused smile..
Armaan : Just now someone was buxy wrestling.. How come so silent..
Getting back to her senses she started to struggle again when he chuckled..
Armaan : And Ms. Attitude starts again.. Why are you trying to leave.. ?
Shilpa : I am hungry.. Breakfast..
Armaan : But Why...
Her gaze went down on his bare chest and found it hard to look away.. He groaned as he saw the color rising on her cheeks..
Ignoring her pleas he leaned down brushing his lips on hers making her tremble with the soft touch.. He moved his lips on her hair and nuzzled it with a smile..
Armaan : Gosh i want you soo much..
She glanced in his eyes as his was made her blush.. For onething she realized she was developing some strong feelings towards him.. Indeed strong feelings.. But did he have the same feelings towards her.. ?
Shilpa : Why do you want me.. ?
He glanced at her frowning, for a second not knowing what to say.. He stared at her confused while she tried to search for an answer in his blank eyes..
Armaan : Dont ask me that question..
Before she could speak a word he got up from bed walking inside the washroom leaving behind Shilpa dishearten..
As they finished the breakfast in the restaurant Armaan shook his head as he noticed Shilpa glaring at him continuously..
Armaan : Is glaring your hobby or i am getting a special dose today..
She looked down at her food gritting her teeth..
Shilpa : Special Food for Special Words..
Armaan : What are you saying.. ?
Shilpa got up from her seat giving a fake smile..
Shilpa : As usual you wont understand my words... Just leave me alone for a while Armaan..
Saying this she walked towards the bar area and took a seat.. The bartender passed a juice towards her which she took immediately.. Sipping it for a while she calmed herself and tried to get up when a stranger approached with a big smile..
Stranger : Hello beautiful lady.. I am Nikhil.. May i know your name.. ?
Shilpa gave a hesitant smile glancing at Armaan who kept himself buxy with phone..
Shilpa : Sorry to disappoint you but i dont talk to strangers..
Shilpa tried to walk away when he blocked her way with a lazy grin.. Armaan cut his call and narrowed his eyes as he noticed the scene infront of him.. Keeping himself cool he approached the guy and placed a hand on his shoulder..
Armaan : Excuse me Any problem..
Nikhil turned towards him and glared
Nikhil : No problem.. Go and mind your own business..
Armaan stopped himself from beating up the guy black and blue.. Instead a plan formed in his mind.. Armaan glanced at Shilpa with a grin..
Armaan : Are you doing fine Mam.. Do you need any help..
Shilpa snapped at him in anger instantly..
Shilpa : I dont need any help..
Nodding his head he whispered something in Nikhil's ear and led him to a side making Shilpa curious.. What was he upto now..
Armaan dragged him to the corner and whispered..
Armaan : Man dont go after her she is really mad..
Nikhil : Oh shut up.. She looks normal to me..
Armaan : Oh no she isint.. Sometime ago i approached her when she slapped me hard.. Go and give a try but am telling you she is mad she will slap you..
He stared at him doubtfully for a minute..
Nikhil : Am sure she is very normal.. You just see..
As he started to walk away Armaan curse under his breath
Armaan : Shit plan flop.. Time for plan B
With that he dialed Shilpa's number instantly... He stood in corner as she picked up the call..
Shilpa : What are you doing Armaan ?
Armaan : No time for shouting.. You see the guy is coming towards you again..
Shilpa glanced at Nikhil who came towards her with a smile..
Shilpa : Ya So what..
Armaan : Well you see he think you.. You are..
Shilpa spoke softly..
Shilpa : I am What.. ?
Armaan : He thinks you are a hooker..
Shilpa stood fuming in anger and cut the call.. Before he could speak a word she slapped him hard on his cheek cursing him loud..
Shilpa : You freak.. Get lost and stay away from me..
Nikhil passed a look at Armaan in fear and quickly excused himself.. Shilpa stood surprised when Armaan came towards her
Shilpa : He left so easily...
Shilpa walked inside the room fuming in anger while Armaan followed her with the same look..
Armaan : I just cant believe this.. !! You made me work in that big shopping mall for 3 hours and Didint even buy a single thing.. NOT EVEN ONE.. !!
Shilpa : Stop Shouting Armaan..!! What i did was much better than what you did in restaurant..
He shrugged his shoulder and started to take off his shirt.. Shilpa blushed as her anger eased off instead she stared at his bare chest..
Armaan : Ohh hello Madam.. I havent come on Honeymoon to fight with anyone.. What i did was a smart plan..
Shilpa : Stop stripping off.. I am not going to sleep with you..
He put his hand on his waist and smirked
Armaan : Ohh Darling get this on your little mind for the rest of your life you are only going to sleep with me..
Shilpa : Selfish jerk..
He moved close to her with a amused smile..
Armaan : Me and Selfish.. ? Then why are you reacting so bad seeing my body...
She looked away not able to answer him.. He put his hand on her waist and pulled her close rubbing his hand on her forehead..
Armaan : Why unnecessary fights and so much tension.. ? Why are you angry with me.. ?
Shilpa avoided his gaze trying to form words in her mind.. Armaan hugged her softly and whispered in her ear..
Armaan : Is that becauxe of what i said Today.. ?
Shilpa didnt know how to react.. She gripped his shoulder and gave a silent nod when he pulled away and looked in her eyes..
Armaan : What were you expecting me to say.. ?
Shilpa bit her lip seeing the seriousness in his eyes.. She herself didint knew what she wanted to hear from him..
Shilpa : I.. I dont know.. Lets just forget it..
She tried to pull away when he pulled her back into arms and led her to the bed lying down.. Shilpa tried to sit up when he overpowered hers making her helpless again as she lay beneath him staring at him.. As he tried to kiss her she moved her head to side..
Shilpa : Armaan Plzz..
Armaan traced her cheeks with his finger staring down at her intently..
Armaan : What you wanted me to say.. I love you ?
She looked at him stunned with wide eyes trying hard not to react.. A unique sensation flowed through her body hearing the words from his mouth.. Only if he had meant..
Shilpa : No.. I dont mean..
He raised his eyebrow with a teasing grin..
Armaan : So you want to say I love you To me.. ?
Shilpa tried to speak when he sighed and hid his head on the crook of her neck kissing softly.. His favorite position.. Staring up at the ceiling for a long moment she lay without a word.. Unknowingly the words came out of her mouth in a whisper..
Shilpa : What if i actually wanted to say I love you..
She waited expecting to hear some reply.. But none came instead she felt his soft breathing on her neck indicating to her he was definitely asleep.. At the very moment Shilpa closed her eyes not able to decide she was glad or upset that he didint hear her say the words..
*************************************
Part 27 :
And the very next moment cleared the confusion in her mind.. In actual she was angry and upset that he slept off without hearing her words... At first she thought she could handle.. But now it was hard to bear his not caring form.. His arrogance was something which kept getting on her nerves..
Armaan set up on the bed drowsy from sleep.. He rubbed his eyes and glanced at Shilpa who kept throwing around clothes furiously searching for something..Not at all a good mood.. He thought..
Armaan : I see someone has woke up with a foul mood..
Shilpa glared at him while he got up from the bed frowning..
Armaan : What.. ? what did i do now.. ?
Shilpa sighed as she glanced around the mess.. Gritting her teeth she started gathering up clothes putting them back in closet ignoring him.. Armaan moved close to her when she brushed of his hands in anger..
Shilpa : Stay away from me..
Armaan : May i know what is happening here..
Shilpa : Nothing is happening.. I am off to breakfast..
She tried to walk past him when he pulled her close..
Armaan : Woahh wait.. !! What is this going on.. ?? Do you mind tell me why are you so mad on me..
She shook her head confused herself why she was overreacting.. She couldnt decide why she was getting mad on him..
Shilpa : I dont know..
Armaan : What you mean i dont know.. You know what Shilpa.. Now seriously things are getting on my nerves.. Firstly i dont understand why you get upset with me.. Will you care to explain me whats my fault Dammit.. !!
To his surprise she set on bed and started to cry covering her face in her hands.. He sighed, running a hand through his hair in frustration..This wasnt something he was planning to see in honeymoon..
As she kept on sobbing he set beside her wondering how to console her..
Armaan : Shilpa plzz.. Shout me on , yell at me.. And even throw around things but plzz dont cry.. I seriously dont know what to do when you cry..
She looked at him in tears and started to laugh softly.. He gave a small smile still unsure of her mood..
Armaan : So you are fine..
Shilpa : NO I AM NOT.. !!
Armaan : Yes thats it.. Shout at me but dont cry...
She shook her head when he pulled her close in his arms..
Shilpa : But i dont want to fight.. I am tired of fighting..
He stared at her for a while thinking over her words.. She waited for him to speak but he stayed silent.. Giving up she tried to move away when he pulled her close to him again..
Armaan : Today spend the whole day with me..Without any argument..
Shilpa : I seriously dont think we can spend a day without fighting..
But suddenly she wasnt much confident about her thinking..
Armaan : For oneday without any fight spend a day with me.. I promise you i will make it beautiful for you.. Just today...
She was surprised hearing the seriousness in his voice.. Giving a silent nod she spoke in a shaken voice..
Shilpa : Ok..Lets try it then...
She expected him to take to her to a lunch.. Specially to some expensive restaurant or visit a grand place.. It was what he liked and always did.. But she was stunned and surprised as he led her to a beautiful lake area which took away her breath.. The beauty and peacefulness of the place warmed her heart.. Awkwardly she kept down the basket near a tree while running a hand on her sundress.. Armaan glanced around and looked at her with a smile..
Armaan : Dont worry you are looking cute in that dress..
She gave a hesitant smile while she glanced at his own dressing.. He was dressed very casually and for the very first time she couldnt help but notice how handsome and young he looked when he dressed in jeans and shirt...
When he caught her stare she looked away blushing..
Shilpa : Armaan.. This place looks so deserted..
Armaan : You dont like it.. ?
Shilpa : No its beautiful.. Very peaceful.. But hardly i can see anyone here..
Armaan : You wont get to see much of resident people here.. Its a very secretive lake...
Her curiousness grew as she set beside him near the big tree...
Shilpa : Secretive... ? What is it Called.. ?
Armaan : Well it comes like this... Chipping Norton Lake..
Shilpa : Chipping What.. ??
Armaan : Norton lake.. I deliberately brought you here..
Shilpa : Oh yes i knew it..
Armaan : What u mean by that.. I thought you wanted me to romance..?
Shilpa : And when did i say THAT.. !!
Armaan : You were the one crying today REMEMBER..
She tried to snap at him but instantly stopped as realization struck her..
Shilpa : We are fighting again..
He stayed quiet and looked away staring at the lake.. She bit her lip and spoke changing the subject..
Shilpa : Are we allowed to take dip on lake..
Armaan : Huh..
Shilpa : I mean.. Swimming..
His eyes lit up as he stood up instantly offering his hand.. She raised her eyebrow taking his hand..
Shilpa : Stop looking so excited I..
Her words came to a halt as he picked her up in his arms moving towards the lake.. Before Shilpa could realize what was coming he threw her into the water while she screamed loud..
Shilpa gasped as the cold water hit hard as she tried to balance in the cold water.. She moved away her hair from her face and glared at Armaan who kept grinning at her..
Shilpa : You are such a Freak Armaan Mallik..!! Its so cold here..
Armaan : Is it so.. Let me join you and make it hot..
She shook her head with wide eyes as he started to take off his shirt...
Shilpa : You are stripping off.. IN HERE..??
Armaan : Ohh hello Just removing my shirt ok.. Anyways other than you no one else is gawking at my body right now..
She flushed as she turned away from him blushing..
Shilpa : I am not gawking at you..
Soon she felt him move close to her within the cold water of the lake.. She moved away turning other side when he spoke...
Armaan : Shilpa..I forgot to tell you there are snakes in this lake..
She gasped and moved towards him hugging tightly.. He pulled her close upto his face level and whispered in her ears..
Armaan : Oh sorry my mistake... That was some other lake..
She punched him on his chest and tried to talk when he interrupted kissing her passionately.. Soon she felt the coldness pass away as the kiss started to heat up.. He held her face kissing her hungrily while she moaned suddenly realizing they were in a open place where anyone could see.. Breaking the kiss she spoke in shaking voice...
Shilpa : Armaan we are not in room..
Armaan : Huh..As if you let me do anything in room..
She gripped his shoulders as he moved his lips down one her neck licking away the drops of water slowly.. Shilpa closed her eyes and hugged him as he started to shower kisses on her neck traveling down on her shoulder biting her skin teasingly..
Several minutes passed lost in his touch she moaned as she felt his hand caress her bare back.. Instantly her eyes snapped open as she abruptly moved back and stared down at her.. Her dress.. Where was her dress..??
Shilpa : My dress.. !!
Armaan : Here in my hand..
She glanced at Armaan who stood with a teasing look on his face holding her dress in his hand.. Ignoring her shouts he swam towards the surface and got out from the lake..
Shilpa : Give it back Armaan.. RIGHT NOW.. !!
Armaan : I am not at all interested in getting back there..Come here to me and get it..
Shilpa : Armaan stop it.. Its not funny..
She tried to swim to the surface but noticed a man who came towards the lake.. Instantly she back away in the foggy water making sure her body wasnt visible.. As the guy got into the lake little far from her she turned away getting scared and feeling horrible..
Armaan took the towel drying up her hair while she kept crying nonstop.. Feeling bad he set beside her pulling her close..
Armaan : I seriously didint knew someone will show up like that.. If i knew i wouldnt have..
To his surprise she started to laugh loudly.. He passed a confused look and tried to touch her when she slapped him hard and stormed off in anger..
Shilpa : Next time..Think twice before you strip me in Public.. !!
In the middle of night Shilpa set up on the bed furiously irritated with his behavior..
Shilpa : Why are you disturbing me in the middle of night Armaan..!!
He set quiet staring at her uneasily for a minute..
Armaan : I want to..
Shilpa : I dont need explanations.. I was going to say sorry for slapping you but not anymore..!
He raised his eyebrow in humor..
Armaan : Ahan... Why is it so..?
Shilpa : You left me all alone in this room in night.. And now u are coming back.. ?? I dont want to talk to you..
He gave her a serious look.. She grew quiet as she noticed the trouble look on his face..
Armaan : Tell me onething clearly Shilpa... Do you feel i dont care for you..
She stayed quiet not knowing what to answer...
Armaan gave a bitter smile shaking his head..
Armaan :Then let me tell you i am very bad in expressing feelings.. Specially in words.. If you expect me to say anything.. I may disappoint you badly..
She sighed passing a smile at him..
Shilpa : I am glad you told me that.. I have committed myself fully into this relationship so i cant see..
He interrupted her words smoothly taking a box from his pocket..
Armaan : If i wasnt committed i wouldnt have married you.. Shilpa.. I have brought something for you..
He took out a beautiful silver necklace from the box and placed it on her neck securing it nicely... She let out a sigh getting touched with his sweet gesture.. Something she was waiting from long to see..
Armaan : I went to clear out my mind today.. Was strolling outside when i noticed the the necklace.. So i thought u might like it..
She touched the necklace getting teary..
Shilpa : I dont only like it.. I love it...Armaan..
He interrupted her by kissing her deeply while placing her down on the bed..
After their love making he moved to side pulling her close to him nuzzling her hair..
Armaan : Gosh.. You dont know how much i love you..
She gasped hearing his words.. Placing her hand on his chest she turned facing him stunned..
Shilpa : Did you say I love you...
He narrowed his eyes avoiding the topic..
Armaan : Did i say so..You know right i want you..
She closed her eyes disappointingly as the same word came back again..
She tried to turn back but he held her close kissing her softly.. She couldnt help but feel sad again... As he got into deep sleep she stared in his eyes and whispered helplessly..
Shilpa : Why did i have to fall in love with a idiot like you.. I love you Armaan Mallik..
************************************************
Part 28
He slept soundly unaware of her scrutinizing gaze on him.. She set up on the bed and stared at him for a while as last night's incident came back in her mind.. But unlike last night this time her anger rose as she recalled everyone.. If he had meant to confess what was the point of backing away suddenly.. ?
Shilpa : I will never understand you Armaan Mallik..
She felt him stir on the bed trying to move close to her.. But with a quick move she got up from the bed.. Armaan set up sleepily while he noticed she stormed off to Washroom in anger..
Armaan : Am asking you last time you are coming or not..
Shilpa : I will have breakfast in room.. If you have problem feel free to go..
Armaan : Wait a minute.. Are you actually pregnant.. ?
She shot him a look putting away the magazine..
Shilpa : I think we have gone through this process already..
Armaan : What.. Means you were Pregnant and you had a baby..
She glared at him in irritation and anger..
Shilpa : Stop cracking jokes Armaan..
His grin faded as his expressions grew more serious..
Armaan : Whatelse can i do.. ? Seems like you havent still forgiven me or you are not even ready to let go the past..
Shilpa : What can i do if you keep reminding me about that everytime..
Armaan : What is the main point of argument here.. I am really not understanding you i dont know what you are expecting from me Shilpa..
She ran a hand in hair in frustration.. What was this happening to her.. Why suddenly a uneasy feeling was rising in her heart.. Tears welled up in her eyes as her confusion grew with each passing second.. Armaan tensed up as she glanced at him in tears..
Shilpa : Thats the main problem here Armaan.. I expect too much from you..
He grew more uneasy seeing her cry.. Something which always bothered him to the core..
Armaan : Shilpa plzz..
She cut back his words clearing tears..
Shilpa : Forget it.. Forget whatever i said... Even i dont know why the hell i am behaving like this..
He sighed glancing at her worried..
Armaan : Why dont you just calm down and speak up openly.. Maybe i could help..
She glanced and him and gave a silent nod sitting on the edge of the bed.. He set beside her as the awkwardness grew between them making them more uneasy... He tried to form words when she spoke breaking the silence..
Shilpa : Your behavior is bothering me..
Armaan : What..
Shilpa : Yes.. Your behavior.. Why are you giving me feeling that you are not committed in this relation..
He frowned shaking his head in protest..
Armaan : I think i have cleared out my feelings last night..
Shilpa : You know what Armaan.. Now i feel you are really running away from reality.. You confess things and back away from them..
He stood up as tension grew between them..
Armaan : I run away.. ?? Dont you name me a coward..
Shilpa : That YOU ARE.. !! Face it Armaan..
Armaan : Will you stop shouting and speak like a normal person..
Shilpa : Thats possible when you stop driving me CRAZY.. !
He shook his head running a hand in his hair..
Armaan : You know what women.. For the first thing today i am taking you to a psychiatrist you have started to freak me out..
Shilpa : Dont you dare call me Mad Armaan Mallik..
Armaan : Ohh Darling whatelse should i assume now your behavior is getting weird day by day.. And adding to it Mood swings..
She stared at him in anger and burst into tears..
Shilpa : I hate you JERK.. !!
Armaan : Oh I love you too..
She shot him a strange look when his expression changed looking away...
Armaan : Uhh actually i meant to say..
Shilpa : There.. Again you backed away from your words.. I HATE YOU Armaan..
Again she stormed off into the washroom crying leaving behind Armaan confused..
He hesitated before opening the washroom door.. Giving a silent knock he opened it and sighed seeing her condition..
Shilpa set down leaning to the wall while water kept dripping down on her from shower.. Trying to lighten the atmosphere he spoke jokingly..
Armaan : In mood of washing clothes.. ?
Shilpa : Leave me alone..
Armaan : Then what are you doing..
She looked up at him with red eyes.. His jaw clenched seeing her condition..
Shilpa : I am... Cooling of my mind..
Armaan : Sooo.. Can i join you.. Even my mind needs cooling..
Letting out a snort she got up from the floor and tried to walk past him when he pinned her to the wall.. His clothes drenched due to shower but he wasnt bothered.. Instead he stared at her intently making her uneasy.. Armaan raised his hand and moved away the wet tendrils from her face caressing it..
Armaan : What is bothering you.. ?
She remained silent thinking over what to say..
Armaan : Atleast tell me what mistake i am doing..
He waited her to speak but she remained silent disappointing him suddenly.. He moved back and walked out from the washroom without a word..
As he left Shilpa slid down sitting back in the floor staring at place.. How she wanted to confess infront of him.. But it scared her that he might walk away again.. Suddenly she felt scared to be rejected...
They spent the day silently without much exchange of words.. Shilpa felt peace as she was glad no more fights were happening.. But Armaan was frustrated with the sudden tension rising between them , specially he found her silence unbearable..
As the day passed and faded into night they walked inside the restaurant to carry on with dinner.. Shilpa took a seat when Armaan excused himself to receive a call.. She passed a curt nod and looked around when she noticed a old women who set in opposite passing a warm smile at her.. She smiled back at her hesitantly and looked away.. Just then Shilpa felt her come towards her with a lingering smile..
Old lady : Would you mind if i take a seat beside you.. I would like to have a word with you young lady..
Shilpa : Sure plzz..
The women smiled at her and set beside her taking her hand.. Shilpa felt strange seeing the sudden affection coming from her.. But she couldnt deny it felt good..
Old lady : Is that your husband..
Shilpa : Ya.. We got married recently..
Old lady : Ohh i see.. I have noticed you both come here several times.. I couldnt help but stare at you both.. Am sorry if i sound voyeur..
Shilpa wondered why she didint notice someone stare at them occasionally..
Shilpa : No its fine..
Old lady : Now i really know this is not my business.. Still i cant help but notice the sullen look on your face.. I sense some sort of tension among you if i am not wrong..
Shilpa : But.. How did you know..
Old lady : Young lady.. I have seen life more than you.. So in experience i can see the expressions and clearly make out whats running in minds..
Shilpa sighed and glanced down biting her lips..
Old lady : I just came to give you one piece of advice Young Lady.. If there is tension among you as a wife be the first one to solve the matter.. Try not to increase the problems between you.. You are newly married it will take a lot of effort and time to strengthen your marriage.. If he is not able to understand whats wrong in here then make him understand..
Shilpa stared at her in awe listening to her intently.. She couldnt believe this was someone who was understanding her..
Shilpa : I will keep your words in mind.. But whats your name Mam ..?
She shook his head getting up from her seat..
Old lady : You dont need to know my name.. Neither i need to know yours.. As in the end of the day we are just mere strangers.. Just keep in mind my advice it might help you..
Shilpa passed a smile as she walked away from her.. Armaan returned back to the table narrowing his eyes at the old women..
Armaan : You know that women... ?
His heart warmed as she glanced at him with a smile..
Shilpa : No.. But she felt like a close person..
Armaan : Why are you smiling...
She looked away taking up the menu..
Shilpa : Smiling is better than fighting..
Shilpa tried to cover up her smile as she noticed Armaan who set beside her looking at her with a scared expression..
Shilpa : Armaan .. Are we going to sit like this whole night.. I am sleepy
He ignored her words and stared at her with same expression..
Shilpa : Are we playing a horror show here.. Look at your face..
Ignoring him Shilpa lay down on bed staring up at the ceiling.. As then he moved on his favorite position , placing his head on the crook of her neck.. Shilpa sighed closing her eyes as she couldnt help but melt with his gesture.. She was almost getting into sleep when he spoke..
Armaan : I am really not liking this..
She opened her eyes and glanced at him as he moved to her face level staring down at her with a worried expression..
Shilpa : Armaan..
Armaan : Cant you see how much i am trying to change myself.. Just to give us sometime..This relationship sometime i planned the honeymoon.. And what we do coming here again fight.. Just tell me how much should i change to make myself perfect in your eyes..
Shilpa frowned placing her hand on his chest..
Shilpa : Armaan.. You are taking my words wrong.. I never went...
Armaan : So lead to me right away.. For godsake clear it out for me this is really bothering me now..
She hesitated a bit.. Color rose on her cheeks as she looked away.. He noticed the blush on her face but controlled his own desires for the moment..
Shilpa : If you didint mean anything for me... I mean if this relation meant nothing for me me i wouldnt have committed to you on first place.. Funnily and strangely you are perfect for me..
A amused smile formed on his lips..
Armaan : Ok i understood every part excluding Funnily and Strangely... Explain please..
Shilpa narrowed at him..
Shilpa :Funnily we fight like enemies.. And strangely you make me forget everything.. And one more thing Sadly you have too much Arrogance..
Armaan : Wifey even you are gifted with a good attitude...
She tried to speak when he silenced her with moving his lips down on hers kissing her deeply.. She moaned as he pulled her close kissing her , teasing her lips with his tongue.. Breaking the kiss he moved up and caressed her face..
Armaan : Things can be better between us.. Dont you think its worth a try..I am badly trying from my side..
She gave a nod as her mind started to reel.. Maybe this was the right time to confess her feelings to him.. Say what she feel for for him.. And correct things between them..
Shilpa : Armaan.. I need to tell you Something...
She gasped lightly as he brushed his lips on hers..
Armaan : Say it..
Shilpa : Armaan.. I..
She tried to speak in one go.. But his phone rang breaking the moment at once.. He cursed under his breath and took the call irritatedly..
Armaan : Hello...
Shilpa set on bed worriedly as she noticed color draining from his face.. Silently he cut the call and stared at her for a minute.. Shilpa started to grow tensed seeing his expression..
Shilpa : Whose call was it.. ? What happened Armaan.. ??
He hesitated for a long time.. And then spoke softly..
Armaan : Shilpa.. Atul called.. Your Dad..
She stared at him shaking her head as a sudden fear rose..
Shilpa : Papa..
