Chapter 6

It was morning already and Madhu woke up with a jump. Her heart felt very heavy and the lack of sleep from last night was giving her a terrible headache. She got out of the bed grudgingly and went to the bathroom to have a cold shower to get rid of the drowsiness she felt.

She was ready by 7.30 and was downstairs preparing breakfast. She had taken her decision, but still she had her doubts. Her thoughts went back to what occurred last night and it gave her shivers. She was angry at herself for the way her body reacted to his touch. 'Does that mean she like him? Madhu, don't you remember the way he humiliated you?' She was very frustrated.

*****

Madhu sat on the table, waiting for RK for breakfast. By sharp eight, she heard footsteps and her heart skipped a beat. She didn't know how to act around him because of what happened last night.

"Good morning, Madhubala." RK said cheerfully with his infamous smirk on his lips.

Madhu who has lost her voice couldn't help notice how good he looked in the dark blue T-shirt and jeans.

They ate silently afterwards. Madhu was surprised how RK was acting so casual as if nothing happened between them last night. 'Was it just a dream?' Madhu was having second thoughts now. 'No. It can't be!' She was determined it was real, as she could still remember how it felt to have his hot breath on her neck. Her face felt so hot, just remembering that. 'Madhu, stop it you idiot! What if he sees your red face?' Madhu was pathetically trying to calm herself up.

RK who was done with his breakfast, got up. "Meet me once you finish your breakfast. I'll be outside." And with that he left her to herself.

*****

She thought she would have to run about the massive grounds searching for him, but there he was in the fancy outdoor room reading a newspaper. She was in fact hoping for a long search, so it would have been the perfect excuse to stay away from him, at least for a while.

"Oh there you are!" He said looking up from the newspaper. "Take a seat." He said indicating the sofa he was sitting on. She took a seat next to him hesitantly. She met his gaze slowly, only to find him looking at her with a blank face. 'Great!' She thought to herself. 'This is awkward. Why isn't he saying anything?' Her big brown eyes were looking at him expecting him to say something.

He smiled. 'HE SMILED! What's happening? Oh no!' Madhu looked down, trying to avoid the awkwardness between them.

"So tell me Madhubala.. What's your big decision?"

'Oh no! Not that question right away!' Madhu sweated.

"May I ask you a question?" Madhu asked softly.

RK quirked an eyebrow. "I don't really appreciate answering questions with a question, but since you asked so nicely.. go on."

Madhu swallowed. "What is the real motive behind this proposal?"

RK smiled. 'The girl is smart. Now time to convince her for good.'

"I don't know why you think there's a hidden motive, but I'm doing this since I really regret what happened in the past. Madhu..." He reached for her hand and squeezed her hand gently. She drew her hand from him like lightening. He smirked at her antics. Suddenly, his face turned solemn and he continued in a serious note.

"My father died when I was young. He was everything to me. My hero, my friend, my inspiration, my motivator, my.. everything." RK's voice broke and Madhu looked shocked seeing this side of RK. "When he left this world, I lost my everything. I was never the same again. I was bitter to everyone. Rishabh Kundra became RK. I really don't want to talk about it. But what happened with you- if papa- if he was here, he would have been disappointed." He sprang from the seat and turned his back to Madhu and stared into the distance. Madhu was shocked to hear this side of RK. She saw the hurt in his eyes when he talked about his father and how his voice quivered. Her heart tugged thinking about it.

"I don't want your sympathy Madhubala." He turned back at her, looking at her sternly. "If you do not want to marry me, I perfectly understand. I proposed you since it's the right thing. Your honour is at stake because of me, because of what I did. I just wanted to correct my mistake. If it doesn't bother you about your family's honour and the fact that your life is at risk... fine by me." RK shrugged.

Madhu pursed her lips.

"How exactly is marrying you going to make me safe? From what I know Bhatia- isn't he your stepdad?" Madhu had to confirm this as she didn't know much about Bhatia as he's a forbidden subject in their household. But from what she had heard RK & Bhatia were not in good terms.

"Oh that loser! He's nothing to worry about. He wouldn't dare try anything funny once you become the daughter-in-law of the house." He smirked.

He looked at her, studying her carefully. He was wondering what's going in her mind. He was unable to stand it anymore and asked "So would you marry me, Madhubala Shamsher Mallik?"

Her heart skipped a beat and her eyes met his. She took a deep breath and replied. "Alright."

"I'm doing this for my family's honour, more than for my safety." was her lame excuse. She looked at him with her doe eyes and he smirked seeing the determination and courage in them.

"Good. I'll talk to you later" with that he left her pondering alone of what just occurred.

*****

Rishabh Kundra plopped on his office chair was thinking back. He was very pleased with himself. He was actually quite worried how the girl would have responded, as she was this unpredictable thing. He shook his head, grinning. 'Whoa, whoa, whoa! So she said yes to me." He took a deep breath. He picked his mobile and dialled a number.

"Bittu ji. Everything's working as planned. Make all arrangements for tomorrow and call my lawyer and ask him to prepare the paperwork." With that he hung, a smirk playing on his lips. "Madhu..bala. Ahaan!"
