Chapter 3
Shravan POV
It was morning, and I really needed coffee. I get up grab my coffee and look out the window. India. Nothing like London, but much better than London. The beauty of India makes me love India more
"Or being close to sumo makes u love India", ugh shut up thoughts.
Sumo. A lot has happened last night, my revenge, those goons, her room, and tears. I can't clear my head anymore. I need to go to work to clear my head.
At work
"So sit what do u think about the case?... Sir"
I wasn't focusing at work, every second I would see her face. Why isn't her face leaving my head.
"Cause you didn't say sorry to her idiot". God my brain won't ever shut up
I don't need to say sorry. I did nothing wrong. She needs to understand playing with my feelings was a bad idea. She deserves to know what I went through.
"Everyone leave my office, and Pushkar I'm leaving for the day, take my calls for me" I said grabbing my keys to head to nana ji's place to play some chess and also see Sumo.
At sumo's place
I arrived to sumo's place and met nana ji. He began asking me about last night, if I had fun, and what we did? I gave him quick answers while I was looking for sumo
"She's not here bete, she was left at 7 in the morning " said nana ji reading my mind
I smiled and said "I think o should get going, and it's time for your nap.
Sumo POV
Ugh I know I dropped my phone here last night. Well I think it was on this street. Ouch my arm hurts. Stupid doctor gave me stitches, I have to be careful. But where could my phone gone. I give up looking for my phone and head toward the food stand
"Chacha ji can I get one tea.
He nodded but looked back at me again.
"You were the girl for last night, that worried one" he said
I gave a fainted smile and nodded my face
" thank god for your friend. He came to the strand Last night and saw the men who were teasing you, so he began to beat them up.
I looked up at the uncle in disbelief. Shravan beating people up for me?
"Are you sure" I asked the uncle
"Positive Beti"
I nodded and said thanks.
Why is Shravan so confusing, couldn't he beat them up right in the beginning?
I need to see Shravan. But first I need to go get some vegetables.
At the market
"Uncle how's is this possible? U can't raise the prices but five rupees in one day." I was arguing with the seller
"Here I'll pay" I hear a big husky voice, so I look up and Shravan looking straight at me.
"I don't need it thank you" I say lifting around 7 bags, which killed my arm
"Ahhh" I dropped everything, I felt something happen to my arm
Shravan
I knew she'd be at the market, I can hear her arguing from a mile away. She just rejected me offering to pay.
"Ahh" she screams and drops everything. My first instinct is to run, which I finally do.
"What happened, is it your arm, are you okay"?
All she did was squeeze her eyes and nod, she was in a lot of pain.
I help her, grab her grocery and tell her to come with me. And what surprised me the most she did what I told her. I reach my car, put everything in and tell her to sit.
I forward my hand, signaling her to give me her hand. Again she obeys.
I lift up her sleeves and see stitches, a few opened. Right away I got mad.
" Are you out of your mind! You got stitches and you start lifting weight! How stupid can you be. They opened now? And your bleeding again." She looks down and says " I can't let my family know what happened last night"
I was calm now and I replied " then make an excuse, you're lucky I was here"
I cover her arm and then in the car and drive to the doctors
At the doctors
"Okay you are all good, just sit here until you are comfortable to go home" the doctor said smiling at us .
"Why didn't you do anything last night? Why didn't you jump in and save me?"she say with her eyes getting watery .
" I'm... Sss... I'm sorry. And trust me I didn't leave them, after I left I went back to them and beat them up."
I look at her and I see her crying.
I towards her and cup her face, "stop crying your sumo"
She giggles and I laugh.
I help get in the car and drive her home. We start talking about some past childhood memories which wouldn't stop Make me smile. I look at and see her looking right at me. I lean in towards her and so does she. Our lips are less than a Cm away. We both wanted this. She places her hands on my face and I open my eyes and push away.
What was I doing how could I want to kiss her.
"I'm only sorry for not interfering. Everything else that happened, I have no regrets." I look straight at her
I get out of the car, put the grocery in front of the door. I wait for her to get out of my car. So I can leave.
Sumo POV
I close my eyes and place my hand in his face. I was waiting for our lips to touch but he moves away. He says he's not sorry for all the other times he hurt me. He has no regrets. He get out of the car and takes my grocery to the door. I get out of the car walk past him, and not looking at him. He gets in his car and drives away. I look down and start to cry. "No more sumo u need to leave"
I need to leave for a while, away from everyone. I just need to convince nana ji.
Shravan POV
I stop my car and the middle of the road and scream. I can't be doing this, I'm not sorry for everything! I need to leave, I need to go back to London.
