There was silence between us . I could see he wants something from me and that something was his name !!
I was fighting with my heart and brain . His eyes desperately wants his name from me . He was observing me closely . He had his hands in his pockets and was waiting for me to speak something .
He was just staring me like that . He slowly moved back and turned to the other side . His back was facing me .
I can't call him as I have to respect him , he is my boss .
He now started walking . Oh no I guess he's angry now !!!
Khushi : Arnav ji .
I called him . Air started blowing softly . And he was turning towards me in a slow motion .
He had some shine in his eyes , some happiness , some unknown feeling .
He took steps towards me in the same slow motion .
Arnav : Kya kaha Tumne ? [What did you say ?]
Khushi : Arnav ji .
Arnav : Acch ...
His voice is been interrupted by Aman .
Aman : Guys what are you doing there ? Party has already started.
Arnav : Dammit .
He said banging the window of the car . I saw him with my big eyes . He too saw me .
I guess he didn't want Aman to interrupt but I am thankful he did . I don't know why ... I am feeling uncomfortable as Arnav never gave me such importance and today ...
I don't want to fall for him again . I don't want those feelings to blossom again in my heart .
Arnav : Let's go .
I nodded my head and followed him .
We entered together . It was really awkward . No girl was in a traditional attire !! Anyways I am used to this .
Arnav and Aman went towards the bar counter . They were looking at me and were chatting with a smile on their faces while drinking . They are not just taking their eyes of me !! I was really uncomfortable !
Arnav called me their by giving a signal through his hands . I took baby steps and went towards them .
Arnav : Why aren't you eating anything ?
Khushi : It's ok Arnav ji . I am not hungry .
Aman : Arnav ji ??
Arnav : Shut up Aman !!
He said with a small smile .
I never saw him like this from the time I met him . He was ASR . But today he seemed to be Arnav .
Aman excused himself from us saying he had some work . We both knew he was just lying . Why the hell did I accept that I loved Arnav in front of Aman ???
Here Arnav was drinking continuously . I was just scared . Just then they announced couples to step the dance floor .
Arnav forwarded his hand towards me . I was shocked . I first didn't want to accept but I had to as he is boss .
I placed my hand in his . He clutched my hand so possessively and I could see so much of unknown desire in his eyes .
He gently took me to the centre of the dance floor . He slid his hand on my bare waist . i gasped as no one ever touched me there . He took my hand and placed it on his shoulder and placed the other in his . My lips started quivering with his mere touch .
The romantic music started and the couples started to swing in the wave of passion . But I maintained as much distance I could . I don't want either of us to take advantage of each other . Moreover I was scared as he is drunk .
As the song continued he started coming closer and his grip on me started becoming hard . I was pushing him but he was too strong than me . May be 10x times more than me ! My breaths became irregular .
After few minutes he was dangerously close to me . His heated gaze was making my knees weaker . I somehow managed to push him and was about to maintain the same distance as earlier but he dragged me hard by my waist towards him . I collapsed on his hard chest . My heart beat became fast .
All the while I was seeing down . I couldn't meet his eyes . I was really scared and this song seemed to be never ending !!
Arnav : Look into my eyes Khushi .
I nodded my head in a no and he repeated his dialogue . This happened for three times and the fourth time I did look into his eyes .
My legs became numb and my heart was racing with the unit seconds . My breathing process was becoming hard . My lips were quivering more .
His eyes were full of desires . This made my legs more numb and clutched his shirt for balance .
He now was bending towards . Initially I didn't understand why he was doing this but later I understood that he is gonna kiss me !! There's only a inch gap between our lips to touch .
I didn't know what to do so I
Khushi : Arnav ji ... Aman
Arnav frowned and turned back . His grip too became loose . I pushed him gently and I started to run .
Arnav : Khu
I didn't listen to him .. I came out and stood in front of a pool . It was dark there . Only the moon light and far off fairy lights were the source of light there .
I placed my hand on my heart to reduce my tension . I clutched my saree steps with the other hand .
Suddenly someone placed my hair to the other side and kissed me on my cheek . I gasped and my eyes turned big in shock .
Arnav : Main koi kaam adhura nahi chodtha Khushi . [I won't leave any work without completing it ]
I understood what he meant . He is talking about the kiss . I turned towards him and forwarded my hand to push him by his chest .
But he caught my both the wrists on time . I was struggling to release myself but he was too strong . He had an angry smile on his face .
He pulled me hard towards himself and hugged me .
Khushi : Yeh aap kya kar rahe hai ? Sir Chodiye Hume . [What are doing ? Sir leave me ]
I was struggling very hard to release myself .
Arnav : Kitne baar bolna padegha ? Arnav kaho [How many times should I tell you ? Call me Arnav . ]
Khushi : Please leave me . Please .
He hugged me more tight and possessively . He cuddled more towards my neck .
I didn't stop struggling .
Khushi : Your drunk . That's why you are doing this . Pls leave me .
Arnav : I am in my senses Khushi . I also know what kind of relation we shared , sharing and will share .
What rubbish is he speaking ? I know he is in his senses . His voice is clearly indicating that . It's normal .
I was struggling and struggling but he was happily hugging me .
Arnav : Stop struggling Khushi . I am not gonna leave you ... Not so easily .
Khushi : Pls leave me .
Arnav : Hug me Khushi .
What is he saying ? I again asked him to leave but he said he will do it only if I hug him .
So without any option I hugged him . He hugged me more tightly .
This was wrong . But why is he so desperate to hug .
Arnav : I should have done this before Khushi .
I didn't understand what he said just now .
Khushi : Pls leave me .
He left me slowly . But I could see reluctance in his eyes . He actually wanted to hug me for some more time . But I can't let that happen . At any cost .
Khushi : Sir I have to get my wallet .
Arnav : Come let's go .
Khushi : Sir it's ok , I can manage by m...
He didn't let me finish he dragged me by my hand . His grip was loose so I released myself and started to walk .
He was walking beside me . I didn't realise that he was coming close to me . Backs of our hands touched , I saw him and moved to the side maintains distance .
I Could see from the corner of my eyes that he was smirking ... Uhh that smirk ... It was making me angry ...
I started to walk fast towards the car . But Arnav caught my hand and dragged me towards himself in such a way that my face is facing him . He had a serious expression ... Not a scary or dangerous one just serious .
Arnav : Door jaana chahti ho na ... Par nahi jaa sakti ... Main Jane nahi doonga . [You wanna go far right ... But you can't go ... I won't let you go .]
I don't know why he is speaking like this .
I released myself and started to walk slowly .
He opened the door and was seeing me closely .
Arnav : Kaha thi tum hamaari intermediate ke baad ??
I took my wallet and saw him . Why is he asking me that ??
