Annika burst into tears, alarming Shivaay who was standing across from her. Something was bugging her terribly and she's not able to cope with it."Annika , kya hua tumhe?" he whispered, as her sobs renewed, louder.
"Why have you been avoiding me all day today? Did I say something wrong? What is it?" he cajoled as she repeatedly refused to let him near enough to hold her.
She kept putting her arms out, keeping a distance. He smoothly took her hands in his and tried to get her to look him in the eyes.
"I need to stay away from you Shivaay...please understand."
"But why ...?" He could not fathom why she would ask such a thing.
He rubbed her knuckles soothingly, and she closed her eyes. Startling herself again, she abruptly pulled her hands back and hastily retreated to be alone.
She sat by the poolside, absently touching the water. Her back stiffened when she felt his presence.
"Tell me why, Annika..."
"I can't..."
"Try me?"
"If I'm around you more and more...I won't be able to stop it..."
"Stop what ...?"
She looked down at her knotted hands and a tear ran down her cheek , in palpable misery.
"Loving you ..."
Time stood still. A breeze blew softly between them with a sweet smell. She dared not look up, tears ran down freely, she cursed her motor mouth for not being able to keep it shut.
The sight of his tan coloured trousers right in front of her made her look up sharply. He was silent, but the expression on his face made a fresh well of tears flow.

"You're mine, Annika. You're not going anywhere without me. I love you too..."
