MayUr FF: Lie To Love Part 2 @ Pg 9 - Page 4

Adhiraj smiled, "Oh! Congratulations Nupur. It hasn't been long since you got married, right?"

Nupur smiled trying to hide her lie behind it.

Suhaani jumped near Nupur, "Did you really got married? Then how come I don't know about it?"

"Oh Suhaani, you really wanted to come to my wedding. If I knew this then I would have surely invited you." Nupur taunted.

Suhaani's face squeezed.

"You would really have come?" Nupur again poked her.

"Ac.. actually we have to go a party together. We should be get going." Suhaani said pulling Adhiraj towards her.

"Nupur, we'll see you later." Adhiraj said being pulled away by Suhaani.

After they left Nupur sat back on the couch, cursing herself for the lie she spoke.

At night, she was not able to sleep properly. She was turning on the bed.

Marriage is not everyone can do it. She was getting flashback.(in italics)

Three years ago. Nupur and Suhaani were good friends. But Suhaani was clever since then. Nupur loved Adhiraj since her college but never told him. She always shared the things happening in her life with Suhaani.

"So you are going to give the civil service examination?" Suhaani asked.

"Yes, Adhiraj has passed the examination and I'll surely do. Then I will go and tell him my feelings." Nupur told her.

Result day

She got selected. She was jumping with joy. She ran towards Adhiraj's home but on the street she found Suhaani and Adhiraj holding hands together. Bag from nupur's shoulder fell straight on the road.

"Congratulations Nupur. I knew you were going to make it." Suhaani said

"Wh..what's going on?" She said looking at Suhaani holding Adhiraj's hand.

"It's been a while. We are going to get married soon. Would you not congratulate us." Suhaani said.

Nupur turned her face. Tears were flowing down from her eyes. She ran at full speed that she could away from there.

Nupur was crying sitting on the floor. "You were always a b**ch, Suhaani. You call yourself a friend? Didn't you knew I liked Adhiraj. Why did you do this to me." She kept crying cursing Suhaani.

In the morning Nupur got ready in a white shirt and jeans.

"Where are you going?" her dad asked.

"I cannot left a debt hanging on my head. I am going to pay it off." She said tying her shoelaces.

"Did you took a private loan?" he asked.

"No dad'. I am leaving. I'll meet you later." She replied picking her purse and left the house.

Sharma Hotel

Nupur entered the Hotel lobby. She was looking around and then she found the reception. She went there and asked, "The president here is Mayank Sharma, right?"

"Yes, what can I do for you?" Receptionist replied.

"Ok, then please give this to him." Nupur said giving her a white envelope.

"May I know your name please."

"Even if I tell my name, he'll not know who am I."

"May I know what is it." Receptionist asked.

"Its money." Nupur replied.

"I am sorry ma'am, we cannot keep money or valuables at the front desk."

"Its not much. It is only 1200."

"I'm sorry, due to protocol I have no choice."

"Then what should I do?"

"You can give this to him yourself."

"If I could do that, why would I have asked you for the favour."

"Why don't you go the lounge, the president is probably there right now."

"Thanks."

Nupur left the desk and was pissed that she had to go herself. She looked up, "Why is it me always?"

She took a deep breath. "Its Ok Nupur. Say Thank you, give the money, simple. I know he is annoying but just give him and leave."

She reluctantly moves forward to search the lobby. She found Mayank sitting on the couch waiting for someone. He was wearing a black designer suit. Nupur could not taker her eyes from him. He looked at her smiled. Nupur was taken aback. He stood up. Nupur thought. Was he waiting for me. Mayank waved his hand. Nupur waved back but she saw a girl going towards him. She was Mr. Oberoi's daughter. Nupur hid her face behind the envelope and turned back. She sat on another table facing her back to Mayank. She listened them talking on various things.

What is he doing with a girl? She thought.

One hour passed and they were still talking. In the meanwhile, she ordered tomato juice and was drinking it. She could not listen them properly. She moved back and soon the chair was holding the ground on two legs only and then it fell and Nupur was on the ground with tomato juice spread over her white shirt. Everyone gathered around her.

Mayank looked at the chaos and excused himself from there. He went there. Looking at Mayank, Nupur closed her eyes. Everyone assumed that she fainted. Mayank identified that she is the girl he met yesterday. Mayank picks her up in his arms. Everyone is talking what is he doing. Mayank takes her to a hotel room and throws her on the bed. Nupur gets up and Mayank shouts, "What are you doing here?"

"This is a hotel and I think everyone is allowed. Am I not allowed here? Why did you bring me here?" Nupur spoke in a high tone. She said after a pause "Oh, you are worried about your hotel's prestige right?" She takes out the envelope from her purse and gives it to him.

Mayank asks, "How did you know who am I."

"I saw you in a magazine. Completely photoshopped." She said making pointing her finger over his face and making a circle in the air.

"I said its OK. No need to give me'."

"I am sorry but I am not Ok with it. I am a government officer and keeping someone else's money is called bribery. I'll take your leave."

"Are you going to go out like this." He said pointing out the red stain on her shirt.

"Oh so you are again worried about your hotel's prestige. What will people think if I am going to leave like this from your hotel."

"I'll ask the staff to get you another set of clothes."

Nupur smiles and leaves from there murmuring to herself. What he thinks of himself he owns the world?

Mayank looks at the envelope given by Nupur. He smiles. Annie who was standing behind him asks, "Do you know her?"

"Know who?" saying this Mayank left from there.

Samrat is staying with his friend who is a cook at a restaurant. His friend showed him the room. It was a small room only to accommodate a bed and a chair. He threw his bag on the chair and jumped on the bed. He lied down with his hands beneath his head and looking at the ceiling, he took a breath of relief. Finally Peace. He slid his hand down to the pocket of his jacket and found a folded tissue paper. He took it out and saw that it was Nupur's resignation. He smiled looking at the resignation and again kept it back in his pocket.

Nupur gave a written apology to her boss.

"What? A written apology?" he asked "I thought you were going to give a resignation."

Nupur smiled "I wrote it last night but someone stole it from me." And she moved out of the cabin.

"How can someone stole a resignation?" her boss smirked and thought "Maybe because of Nupur, I think anything can happen with her."

At a kitty party

It was an elite party. Many famous stereotypical women were also present in the party. Suhaani also reached there with her friends. They were chatting on random things when Suhaani interrupted "Do you guys know that Nupur is married?"

"What?"

"How can that be?"

"She never told me."

"Neither told me."

"But, she told me that she is. Maybe she is lying." Suhaani said

"Let me call Akriti and ask her."

"Yaah ask her" everyone said.

The lady calls her and asks.

Every other friend also tries to contact and ask whether Nupur is married or not. Slowly, the rumour of Nupur marriage starts spreading.

Akriti tells the lady that she was at Sharma Hotel for a lunch and she saw a man, well dressed taking Nupur inside the hotel. They enquire a lot and finally reach to a conclusion that maybe her husband is Mayank Sharma.

The rumour starts spreading in the whole town town that Mayank Sharma is married and he has hidden it from the world.

Mr. Oberoi's daughter also hears this news.

Next day Mayank was playing golf in the club. He saw Mr. Oberoi's daughter. He approached her to apologize for yesterday as he left from there without any notice.

"Hi!!" he stopped her "I am sorry. I could not call you as there was a conference."

"Its ok. But you should be sorry for making me your substitute. I am offended."

"What?"

"Its Ok' I won't tell the elders." Saying this she left from there.

Mayank asked to himself. "What is she talking about?"

Then he saw his golf friend approaching him.

"Hi Mayank."

"Hello" Mayank smiled.

"You didn't even bothered to tell me about your marriage."

"Who? Me? Marriage? That's ridiculous!"
