Chapter 19
Finally he pulled away, leaving me breathless. We both are standing opposite each other and both are breathing heavily, but he continued to look at me.
Finally! Our breathing rate calmed , we both kept quiet. He looked at me with some hot look that Arun can only give. It made me feel so aroused.
Suddenly he stepped forward, closer to me, locking my gaze with his altogether and tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear.
"now cover yourself. Please" his voice low but hot.
Cover? suddenly his words came to mind 'Aren't you wearing a little too less?'
God!
" what are you going to wear?" He asked, checking my face for something, some answer, reply or anything, I guess.
I looked at my left towards the bed and pointed with my chin. He followed my signal and looked on the bed, at my dress.
"I hope, it's neck is not too deep" he stepped back , turned and then moved towards the bed , then he jumped on the mattress gracefully.
"Arun!" I scolded him, but couldn't supress my smile.
" you can change now" he laughed and put both of his hands behind his head and laid on the bed.
Nice try.
"get out Arun. I am unlocking the door now" I said, my voice teasing.
I moved slowly to unlock the door but then suddenly he jumped off the bed and grabbed my hands. Then he pinned them upwards with one of his hand and looked at me, he is still smiling, but 'my' smile got fade away.
Suddenly,
"shree? Are you ready?"
Alia's voice came from outside the room.
Oh no! My eyes got widened. Alia!
I looked at Arun,whose face has an irritated look. He opened his mouth to say something,
No! No! No!
I pressed my palm on his lips, he looked at me with narrowed eyes.
"er..alia, I'm not ready yet. You go, I am going in some minutes" I cried out.
"um..ok..but come sooner, we have shoes to protect" she said, her voice urgent.
I looked at Arun who is scowling.
I heard her footsteps fading away. Suddenly Arun kissed me on my palm, his eyes playful and dancing with joy again, and then quickly i removed my palm from his mouth. He looks amused.
"what?" I asked innocently, knowing that he is finding me funny somehow.
He laughed and shaked his head
"change now. I am going out" his tone is back to the commanding one, but he is still looking in a good mood.
But! Why is he going? Why did he come here on the first place ? And suddenly my mind went back to the thing which pinches me alot.
"what?" He asked, I looked at him, his face and voice serious now.
Should I ask him about everything? Well i should, after all, I deserve to know everything.
" shruti?" His voice commanding and authoritative again
"u still have.. not told me anything" I asked my voice low
"told you what?" He creased his brow
I moved and walked towards the bed again
" you have not told me anything Arun. I don't know anything about you"
I need to know everything about priya, his relationship with her. I know his bad mood in the evening is related to Priya somehow.
I looked at him, all traces of humour has gone from his face. His lips has turned into a hard line now.
Is he pissed ?
" don't you think we don't have time for all of this now" his voice irritated.
" when then?" I snapped
He blinked at me first and then oh no! He ran his hand in his hair and clenched his teeth.
"what do you want to know?" He snapped back
My blood is boiling with so much anger suddenly, it's him, who has lingered this conversation and now..he is the one who has got to get irritated. I clenched my teeth,
" why were you so much mad at everyone in the evening today?" I asked straight out.
After some time, He inhaled and ran his hand through his hair again. He kept quiet,
Why is he not telling me!?
"was it about Priya?" I snapped, my face must have turned red.
God! I am so mad at him.
He looked quickly at me, on the mentioning of priya's name.
Bitch! What has she done?
He kept quite, his whole face has turned red now.
" yes" he said through gritted teeth.
I knew it! Bloody bitch!
" what did she do?" I asked, my voice dominating.
He exhaled and now! He ran both of his hands through his hair, but did not say anything.
"what's eating you Arun? Why don't you just tell me the truth? What is it tell me." I pleaded, I felt a huge lump at my throat.
He looked at me with horrified expression and then closed his eyes.
Oh no! Is it bad? How bad it could be?
I walked towards him, he is standing against the door, and reached for his hands. He looked at me with sincerity. I clasped his hand and pulled him towards the bed and made him sit on the edge of the bed. I kept standing in front of him.
" you don't wanna tell me?" I asked , my voice sincere but approaching. I don't want to push him to tell me.
He looked up at me " I want to, but I don't know what will you think of me then"
What? What has he done?
" then tell me, I know you can't do anything wrong" I almost pleaded. I know, I trust him, he can't do anything wrong to someone.
" you don't know anything shruti" he looked down, "I don't know, how that happened, but I never wanted to hurt anyone" he said, his voice low and lost.
God! What is it?
" Arun! Please tell me"
I circled both of my arms around his neck and hugged him. He snaked both of his arms around my waist and hugged me tighter.
"last night you told me about how priya has told you that she likes me"
Oh finally! He is talking
"yes" I answered and kept him in my arms
" it was not like her at all, I mean I knew it that she likes me, but I never felt that way for her. So i talked to her in the morning and told her that 'neither me nor shruti are comfortable with what you said to her'" he paused
"oh! Then?"
" then she just said that 'i don't want to stay if you guys are uncomfortable because of me" his voice is calm and patient today. This is so unlike Arun. But I kept quiet and listened him patiently.
"then what happened? Why were you so mad today?" I asked curiously
He paused
" it's just that i got a call from my office that she wants to meet me." He pulled back and then dragged me on his lap. I sat on his lap comfortably.
" in the morning, it was she and some client that made me run to the office immediately" he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear and started playing with my earring slowly.
"and then?" I asked, enjoying the feel of his touch
Suddenly he stopped ,
" she said that i am not good for you shruti " his voice so low and panicked
"what?" I jerked my face to him
"what the hell is her problem? I hate her Arun" i jumped off his lap and felt my blood boiling.
If one day I will get a chance to kill someone then it would definitely be 'her'.
" I know" he nodded and stood up and took me in his arms and pressed my face to his chest.
It is such a safe place. I love being here.
" it is me Arun, who is not good for you" my voice hoarse, and suddenly i felt my vision got blurred.
" what?" He pulled away and hold my face in his hands and made me look at him. " don't you ever think that again. I am glad that finally, I am with you, the girl I love and who loves me" he smiled and kissed me on my forehead.
" is this why you were so terrified?" My brow creased
There's got to be something else.
His face falls suddenly.
"one thing at a time. Now change your clothes" he said sternly to me.
" there's something else?" I asked, trying my luck.
He clenched his teeth.
"why can't you just do what you are told to do, shruti?"
I looked down.
" you will tell me right?" My voice low
I heard him inhaling
" I will. Just not now." His voice clipped but loving at the same time
