Part 16
She came out from the building and composed herself. She thanked to God that none saw her in panic state but she cursed to Shlok for his misdeed. She decided to keep distance from him as much as possible. She stopped the auto to return to home.
She was disturbed to think about today incident. she looked herself in small mirror of auto. Her eyes went to her lips, instantly the whole scene danced again in front of her sight. She tried to sift her concentration at the road but the pair of black eyes didn't ready to leave her mind.
She gave the fare to auto and came inside, everybody was waiting for her curiously. They wanted to know about her presentation, she was not in mood to talk but she didn't want to spoil their happiness and hope so she gave the answer of their questions. They were so happy to know about the success of her work.
She excused them "Aaji I am very tired so I will talk with all of you later... I am going to sleep because after that I have to do so much work..." she said and left the living room.
*********...*********
He was furious on his own action. How could he do this and that too in two meetings back to back. he clutched the back of his chair in frustration. He was feeling if he lost something very precious due to his own stupidity. He was irritated when Anjali came inside. She saw him upset. He was looking agitated, she asked worriedly
"what happened my son... why are you looking so upset?" she became instantly restless to see him like this. seeing her in his room, for some moments he remained speechless.
"nothing... I am fine... don't worry..." he tried to pacify her as he didn't have any words for his deed. He composed himself in front of her. she looked him for some moment and asked in polite tone
"did you take your medicine?" he nodded his head positively
"yes mom... now you go to sleep please, I have to sleep too... good night..." he replied and showed if he was really feeling sleepy. She went in her room confusingly.
He locked his door and sighed in cold tone. he was thinking only about Aastha that how he will face her now...
*********...***********
She was trying to sleep but she failed. It was looking like if sleep also angry with her and ran from her eyes. She tried to sleep hard and changed the sides for some hours but she could sleep for a minute. Her mind was not calm, she was angry on herself that how could anyone control her and even touched her. why she didn't react on his deed? Why she didn't slap him?
She was frustrated at the time. she decided to face him next time, she was not a toy and anybody could not play with her like this. what if he was trusty of the shelter home, she was not his pawn.
She poured out all her frustration on her best friend, her lord Ganesha who lived with her all the time. after that she felt relieved and she lost in deep sleep.
**********...***********
She woke up very late. It was 10:00 am, she went to take shower quickly and got ready. She had to go for so important work. She took breakfast in hurry and walked out from the home.
As she looked around in search for Auto, a car came to near her and stopped suddenly with jerk. she took her step back in shocking way.
"how careless is everyone... Don't you see Mr. ..." she muttered in angry tone but her words was cut off when she saw to Shlok Agnihotri on the driving seat.
"please I have to talk to you..." He pleaded to her while she was just numbed to see him
"but I don't want to talk to you... and after yesterday incident no never..." she clinched her teeth and tried to go from there. He quickly came out and stopped her way.
"please listen to me... I don't want to create scene here so please just listen to me once..." he came in front of her. she became red in anger.
"if you think that because you are very influential person and son of Mrs. Anjali Agnihotri so I will scare from you now then it is your big mistake..." she tried to be strong and told in harsh manner but inside in her heart she knew that how nervous she was.
"listen you are taking me wrong..." he tried to cover up himself but she was not looking in mood to understand. He looked her for some moment and in next minute he pulled her in his car and locked the door. She tried to get out but in vein. He started the car, she became frightened to see his madness.
"look... I didn't have any other option rather then this... you just listen to me once then I will let you go where you want..." he tried to clear his position. She was looking him with fear and anger.
"ok tell what you want..." she said in trembling voice.
he looked her for some moment. he could not find any suitable words for justified of his misdeed.
"I am sorry for my behavior with you..." he lowered his head and said
"how many times...? What do you think of me...I am orphan and also depends on your charity so that you can behave like how you want because I don't have anyone to my side to speak for me against you..." she burst out in anger and frustration on him.
He clinched his fist on the staring to hear her all words. He stopped the car with jerk. She continued to say
"you are wrong because although I don't have anyone in life but I am strong enough to face you alone Mr. Shlok Agnihotri..." she said in furious tone and turned to go.
He pulled her arms "listen you are not my pawn... you are not weak I know... maybe you don't have anyone in life to protect you but don't take me wrong... don't say this that I want to play with you... how can I even think about when I love you so much..." he said every word in full of emotion.
She tried to get out from his car.
"you don't know I love you from so long even I don't know... but I know you will not believe me that I am mad for you..." he was telling her about his madness. She became pale to hear his words. He obligated to pinned her to the car door.
"my mother took me to America for treatment because when I saw you first then in very next moment I met with an accident. I was in Coma for a year and when I came in senses... I just remembered one face...your face..." he signaled her face now she was looking him stupidly as she could not understand any word.
"my mother don't know about that you are the girl whom I used to see in my illusions due to integral disorder... even after the treatment I also thought that you were not real , after seeing you in shelter home I thought that you came to trouble me again... I could not control myself that's why I kissed you..."he said and took a deep breath in between his words.
She was hearing his every word. When he paused, she looked him with sharp eyes
"and in your office? Why did you kiss me there?" he bent slightly towards her and said in husky tone
"I got to know that you were not my illusion but a real person, you came in my cabin and you were trembling like today you are shivering, I lost my control and I could not prevent to touch you again but trust me I don't any ill intention for you... I want to make you mine in real also..." he said in desired tone. she became straight on his words.
"what do you mean to real also?..." she frowned in anger plus confusion. He took off his eyes from her and turned other side. She understood his gesture and turned in red due to shyness.
"where do you want to go? I will drop you..." he asked to avoid the awkwardness between them after some moment later. She told him the address and looked out from the windows. She could not match her eyes with him.
They were silent all the way .
************...************
After that day she didn't meet him, he also never tried to meet her again. But fate brought them together again. One of shelter home resident suffered due to sudden heart attack. Anjali was not in the city at the moment. Shlok helped them in all immediately situation. he not only took the expenses of hospital but also stayed in hospital with Aastha. they came back to shelter home as one of other resident told Aastha to take rest for a day. He came to drop her.
Aastha could feel that he avoided to be close to her as much as he could. She knew that it was very difficult to him but he had to do it for her sake only.
Her views had been totally changed now about him. she was feeling a soft corner for him instantly. He was not as bad as she thought.
When he dropped her at the gate she asked to him for coffee. He looked her for some moment and nodded as he also wanted a cup of coffee badly due to tiredness. They came inside quietly as it was so late and everybody was sleeping. she took him in her room as she didn't intend to disturb anyone. She said him to sit and went to kitchen.
He was looking around him, she was everywhere in the room. in her trophies, in pictures and books. It was very obvious to feel her in the room. he slowly came near to her big picture and touched her face softly. He was lost in the picture when she came back with two mugs of coffee. She silently put the tray on the corner and stood behind him.
He felt her scent behind him and pulled back his hand instantly. He turned and suddenly bumped to her. his arms circled her unknowingly to prevent her from falling down. she looked in his eyes and felt like he was fighting with himself on his desire.
She didn't think much and without any thought she just kissed him suddenly. he remained shocked on her action. Now she turned her face in other side due to shyness. He was busy in figure out what just happened in seconds.
She took her coffee mug when he pulled her again in his arms and took over her soft petals. He kissed her wildly with all his passion. She gasped and he sneaked into her mouth. He clinched her hair in his fist and made her obligated to him. they were lost in the battle of desire. She was thrilled to see his madness. They fell on the bad, he slowly took her beneath him and tasted her lips again and again. His hands caressed her waist and her hands were dancing around his back.
Her figure arched up when she felt his hard body. She could feel his aroused senses , she came back in reality with thud and pushed him with power...
"no... it is not right..." she said in shivered tone and adjust her clothes... he was panting hardly. He got up with jerk and walked out from the room before they crossed any kind of limit.
