Teaser for Part 20:
Mehak had thought that after few days, Shaurya would visit her family with the marriage proposal. However, she was surprised when he said that he wanted to wait and know her better. This was something that didn't go down well with Mehak. It made her doubt her decision of trusting him again. She was angry that he was wasting time when she had told him umpteen times that her Kaanta chachi had started making rounds of various marriage bureaus for her rishta.
One day, she was angrily chopping the veggies alone in the kitchen when Shaurya had come to ask her about a dish.
Shaurya: Mehak, did you start working on the dessert "Baklava? I hope Kunal has started training you on this..
Mehak simply ignored him and continued chopping the veggies.
Shaurya (a little louder): Mehak, did you hear me?
Mehak angrily: Hmm
Shaurya was taken aback with her reaction. He walked towards her and kept his hand on her shoulder. She shrugged him off and continued with her work.
Shaurya held her shoulders tightly and made her look at him. She refrained from looking at him and kept her eyes fixed on the floor. Shaurya was worried with her reaction.
Shaurya worriedly: Mehak, is everything alright? Are you stressed out about the dish? Please don't worry its ok...I will help you out with it...See its not that diff...
Mehak looked up at him with tear filled eyes. Shaurya cupped her face and wiped her tears. This was trouble he knew that. Was he really stressing her out with too much work? Was she feeling too much pressure?
Shaurya hugged her and said: Mehak, I am sorry if this has caused you too much stress but I thought that you were capable enough of handling it...I will ask Kunal to train someone else..Not to worry dear!!
Mehak broke out of his hug and pushed him slightly: Is this is what you think about all the time Shaurya? Work, work and work?
Shaurya looked at her confusingly. He tried to hold her back but she hit him on the arm and said angrily: I don't want to talk to you...You are just impossible..Just go away!!
