A breathtaking and nauseating silence lingers upon Dhruv and me. He stares at me for an amount of time and reason I can't explain nor understand.
But it doesn't change my mind on thinking over the fact that Dhruv Saxena,The jerk Dhruv Saxena just asked me if I was alright or not.
For any other person who doesn't know him, it'll seem normal. But I have known him for quite some time. He doesn't care. Especially for the people who work under him or with him. He only likes to order around and get his way.
A hand holds my wrist and pulls me towards a body. A warm one.
Even before I can think anything, strong arms engulf me in an embrace.
I blink my eyes a few times to decipher what the fuck is happening. Is there a rescue team on the deck who give warm hugs?
I hope I am right.&n

I stare agape at the old lady for a moment. Is she saying the truth or joking around with me?Dhruv's other name is Mimo? How can that brat have such a cute name?I think you shouldn't call him a brat since he's the one who saved you from your vomit party.Fine!Argh!Sometimes, I can't even insult this guy because of his good deeds. Does he have a Mahatma Gandhi version 2.0 too in his self?Possible."I know it sounds a bit out of place for you. But I have been taking care of Dhruv from his childhood. I am like his second mother. And I gave this nickname to him.""Oh,I see. That's...umm... very kind."Wow! What great words , Meera! Claps for you!Excuse me! If you invite your band party to play their drums inside your ar

I see Dhruv's expression turn from anger to regret. He made a girl cry after all. And not only a girl, but me! Me! Can you even believe that? I'm basically not a person to shed tears. But here am I, crying like an idiot. "Meera-I—" his hand grabs my left arm that's trembling with my lips."Just don't talk. I want to go home." I say and jerk his hand away. Emotions like anger,fear,hatred. All bubble up inside me like soda. I want to slap this guy so hard for judging me like this. But then again,he doesn't know my story,does he? I step inside the car and settle on the passenger's seat. I avoid any eye contact from him, trying my best to subdue my tears. Why did I even cry? Have I gone mad or it's the after effect of the sea sickness? Argh! I shouldn't have come with him today. Should have stayed back home and none of this would have happened in the first place.He sits beside me,his eyes roaming over my form. But I do

"What? How's that possible? Weren't you taking care of her?" I shout at her, literally. That bitch must have done something. Laila leans in to hear,of course she will hear."Meera,how can you say that? I'm very responsible towards her. But people can get sick you know and Sonia is such a fragile thing. Maybe she caught a cold or something while going to school? I told you so many times that she doesn't need to go to school. She's a girl after all. She can get married and have a husband who can take care of her.""She's nine! What kind of a sick bitch are you? Get her married to a stranger? Over my dead body! Leave it, I'm coming to India tomorrow." I lower my voice, but keep my threatening voice intact."What? Ah,no need. What about your work there? What about the money?" The bitch seriously has the mouth to ask for it. I mean, seriously?"You don't have to worry
Being His Chapter 62
After going back to my home country,things don't look very bright. Sonia is really very sick and that bitch made sure that I have a hard time scolding her because half of the aunties are present in the house. They are our neighbours and admire her a lot because of her buttering skills. There is one thing I need to learn from this woman that I will use later in my job. That is to impress people and give them the Illusion that you are a God-sent angel when in reality, you are just a demon in disguise. I can hear them talking about me as I sit in Sonia's room, looking after her. Some of them keep asking Udupi why I am not married yet. Great question!Here, all people can think about is getting a good career for men and a good husband for women. That is it. They don't think that we women also have aspirations of our own. But leaving aspirations, I just dream of a normal life. Like having normal parents and going to a school, getting my degree and

Dhruv's povI walk down to my living room and sit on the sofa with my arms spread and my head resting on the back. These days have been very tiring. Cracking deals and getting my workers to do the job was hard. But it is something that I normally do. That is what my life has turned into after I became a successful entrepreneur. I do not mind, because I do what I like. And the best section is, I don't have to rely on my family to make my ends meet. As if they would even care.I loosen my tie from my neck as it was suffocating me. I don't understand the logic of wearing ties at all. I personally prefer myself to be tieless. There is so much pressure already, why put up with a dress code that does not help? And not that it attracts any particular interests of the opposite sex. Women do like to pull off a man's tie in bed and the sluts I have fucked always complimented them. Except her. Meera Adarsh. I hate that woman! She ke

"Hello, my little love. What do you like to eat?" Aunty, Laila's mom asks Sonia, who is currently hiding behind me as she is super shy. Haha, no one would tell she is my sister if our faces did not look similar. "Um, she eats everything. You don't have to worry about it." I say with a smile. "Ah, don't worry. Then I will make some Biryani for our little doll, hmm? You both go up and wait for my call." She says and I nod my head. Since the moment Sonia learned that she was coming with me, her expressions were worth recording. She was so happy and bouncing. I can tell that bitch didn't treat her well at all. I'm glad that I made this decision. But another problem remains. I cannot stay in Laila's home forever. Especially with Sonia on top of that. I told them that it will be a maximum of one month and then we will be off to our place. Which I currently don't have! Sonia clings to me a

I walk towards the entrance of the park where my destiny awaits me. Okay! Too dramatic, I believe. Dhruv told Eleanor that we are supposed to meet here, in South Central Park and I agreed. I like parks and Greenery and especially the water bodies, if present. Someone can certainly suggest that I go to a beach. I love beaches too. But beaches have a lot of sand. I don't like sand. Hence, park it is. Or maybe a house pool.I see Dhruv looking ahead at the lake and the sun shines over him, making his straight face glow. Strangely, he is not wearing any formals but a brown hoodie with grey pants. Hmm. I rarely see him in casuals. What is up with him? I chose to wear casuals too because you can't be spotted wearing a dress in a place like this. Well, whatever his reason is, I'm just glad he chose this place.I stand next to him. "Hi." He looks at me, his eyes scanning my look. It kind of makes me feel self conscious of m

One cannot say what life brings and certainly, my life is giving me hurricanes to deal with all of a sudden. With a lot of pressure in my head, I thought that my problems were only external. But never did I believe that I have a word problem. Like, how can I say 'okay' just like that to Dhruv's proposal. I swear I had a lot to say. Like a literal essay. Yes, it is that lengthy and I can tell because one entire page of my diary is filled with the explanations which are supposed to be my speech in front of him tomorrow."What are you doing?" Laila asks as she closes the door behind her."Mi is a student." Sonia says in her cute voice and Laila's eyebrows furrow. She looks at the diary in my hand."I didn't know that you journal your feelings." She scratches her dumb head."Ugh! No. I don't. And this is not my feelings…" I look at my disgusting handwriting wh

Being His Epilogue
One month later, I finally got custody for Sonia. Thanks to Dhruv and his high-paid, fancy private investigators and lawyers on the run, it was a piece of cake. Udipi was immediately charged and found guilty in the court. I never expected this day would come. But my heart is finally at peace. I got what I craved for a long time. Freedom from Udipi Adarsh. My house was free from investigation and so I shifted back there. Though I kept making stupid reasons to stay in Dhruv's mansion. Hey, don't judge me right away! It was not because it was comfortable. The house he gifted was no less than heaven. But it was because...you get it right?So, I had to forcefully drag myself back to my house with Laila and Sonia. Aunty and Uncle did not have a single clue that their daughter had done a heroic job of getting me out of the grasps of jail and actually visiting a police station. I don't even want them to know because Aunty will certainly pass out from
Being His Chapter 101
We rush past the people towards the counter of the Airport. The moment the car stopped, Dhruv's men told him that they had spotted her and stopped her in time. Sonia is also with them. The news itself made my adrenaline rush kick in and without a second thought and a second glance,I ran to the entrance. Of course it was a mistake, since the security caught me. But Dhruv got us through within a few seconds. He didn't even have to say anything. The moment the guards saw him, they understood who he was. I believe power gives that to you.A few seconds later, I spot a woman standing with a child, talking to a few men wearing black suits. My eyes grow wide in recognition and my heart feels like it will break through my ribs and land into my hand. Udipi notices me and her face loses all its colors. But all my attention is taken over Sonia who is still crying. Her one cheek looks very red. Did she slap her? That bitch! I lunged at her, in between th

In a moment, the police barges in the house and in front of my eyes, Sonia is dragged by Udipi Adarsh. I try to explain to them why I have kept my sister with me,but due to lack of evidence, they don't believe me. Plus, now they will take me in custody because according to Udipi's claim, I forced Sonia to stay with me. And because of my Sugar baby job, I am trying to push Sonia into prostitution.It takes only a few hours to find myself standing in the police, begging the officers to believe me. But they rather push my words away and consider me as the accused. What has this day turned to? Tears stream down my eyes as I stand helpless, cuffs in my hand, ready to get under the bars. Is this how my life is going to be now? And what about Sonia? I don't know what that disgusting bitch would do to my sister. Sell her to a brothel? Get her married? All these thoughts keep haunting me. And I would be able to do nothing. If I had some time, I would

"Um...I—" I don't get any words to say. I believe Dhruv will say something about it, but he stares at me too. Waiting for my answer. Marriage? Why is this topic even coming up?"Would you?" Dhruv asks and I look at him. Is this some kind of proposal? What should I do? It reminds me of Eleanor's story. The way her rich husband left her. Wait! What the fuck! Marriage shouldn't be a topic here at all! I am too young, well according to me I am. This is not the time to get married. Also, I am not going to marry Dhruv! Especially after hearing what Eleanor said. We have just got to know each other."I don't know." I look down at my nails, and there is silence for a moment."Means, you are not sure that my brother is the one for you?" Harsh asks in a serious tone. Where the fuck is this coming from?"Brothers, I think this is too much. Why ask such a question righ
Being His Chapter 98
Meera's POVI put on the pearl white dress Eleanor brought for me without any hesitation and sit for the two hours long torture. Why can't makeup be relaxing like a spa? After the torture is over, I look at the mirror to find my enhanced face with all the makeup and shit. "Eleanor?""Hmm?" She responds behind me, looking through something on her phone."Dhruv came to my house yesterday but I did not see Blondie—I mean the guy who is incharge of watching over us.""Yes, I know. I wanted to discuss about it with you and Mr. Saxena today but since there is a change of plan, I have to shift the meeting to some other day.""Okay. Also, are you sure that Dhruv told you to dress me up in a certain type of clothing?""Yes. He called me again after ending the call to give me specific instructions on how you shoul

Dhruv's POVI stare at the lady, who Ajay claims to be Meera's mother. It is hard to believe that the claims are true because she has nothing identical with Meera. And there is a certain malicious look in her face that only experienced eyes can catch. Which I certainly have. "Oh, I see. Hello Mrs. Adarsh."She nods her head with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Saxena. It is very nice to finally meet you.""Same here. I am fortunate that I could meet you. Meera does not speak much about her family. So I believed you did not live with her.""Ah, yes,yes. I actually come from Kolkata. I recently came here. Meera did not say anything?""No.""Oh…" she looks down. "Why would she, of course." She mumbles,but just in the way it is audible to both Ajay and my ears. Does not fit right with me."S
Being His Chapter 96
Dhruv's POV"Boris, make sure my suit is ready for today. I will be home by four in the evening." I tell him and he bows his head. I have told Sia to get my schedule ready today. I had plans to take Meera out,but thanks to my family, it is all ruined now. Yet, I am glad that I still get to spend my time with her. I had told Eleanor about the change in plans and she agreed to do all the arrangements. Though I don't have a clue on what arrangements she was talking about because Meera needs none. A beauty like her can bewitch people with anything. I loved her choice of wearing a saree when I took her to meet my family. One of the things I love about her. She knows what she needs to do. I don't understand why she keeps telling me that she is not good enough to earn a luxury like the one I have gifted her. A woman like her can make anything stand worth millions. She has the brains for it. I need to show her how smart she is. And how brave.
Being His Chapter 95
I gasp at her words. "What! But why?""It is because even if you show your love, not telling it means not considering it at all. This will give the next person the impression that you care for them but not anything more than that.""Wait a minute, love? I don't—" I hesitate. I don't love him, right? Love is a deep word to even start with."Leave it. Let's get some food. I bought some vegetables from the market. Can you make something out of them?""Hmm. Bring the packet here." She brings the packet before I start putting the vegetables on the kitchen island and see what I can make out of them. Yet my head revolves around what Lai said a few minutes ago. Will I lose him if I don't tell him my feelings?***********The next day, Eleanor calls me to her office very early and I give Lai the responsibility to take care of Sonia.
