In the Strangers Arms

Bela Pov

I came home and dance on breakup song. Yes this is the thing I do when I am angry or sad and I feel better. I go take out a box from cupboard.

And empty it's contents. It had some letters, some roses and his gifts. 

Huh... Fucktard. He literally wrote 35 letters to me and all those things are gifted by him. But everything at last was fake and this rose.

Flashback

What is it abhay?

He kneeled down with a plastic rose in his hand and said "Will you be my girlfriend? "

"Do you love me? "

"My love is real for you"

"yes...! "

Flashback end

Truly his love was real just like this rose. Then I take out the pictures. The one in my hand was where I kept hand on his shoulder and he was looking at me. 

This was taken when it was anushka's wedding and it was 5th day of our relationship.

Why? I hate you.... I hope I never see you again.

"Ahhhh...."i screamed pulling my hairs

"You asshole.... Why you did this? "

I take all this things and burn them in the backyard.

I crouched down to ground and ended up crying. "This is the last time I am crying for you. I won't shed my tears for you again" I cried my heart out for that bastard one last time.

I went in and slept with my aching heart

Timeskip

I woke up by my alarm ringing. I sighed and got up. My head is aching a lot. I saw a glass. Then, came in pooja di my caretaker.

"Take this madam you'll feel better "

"Didi... I told you,na. Not to call me madam"

"And I told you too, that I can't call you by name"

I sighed and she smiled. I went for jogging and returned. On the way I decided to take a half-day today and visit the M.S orphanage.

I packed gifts for my cuties. I like them a lot. I even wanted to adopt one but father said that only marriage couples are allowed to adopt one.

I huffed. I went to bath and came out and wore a simple outfit. A denim jacket with white inner and some shorts. 

I drived there and after 10 minutes I reached. I saw everyone busy, which is very unusual. I asked aditi. She is a orphan but now she works as a volunteer here. She told me that the owner of orphanage is here.

Suddenly someone tugged my leg. I look down to see a cute boy. I bent down to him and said "Hey"

He didn't reply instead he kissed my cheeks. I was taken aback by this.

"You are very beautiful. Will you marry me? " he asked. I chuckled.

"You are also very handsome "

"So, will you marry me? " He looked at me hopefully. Before I could answer him. Someone came and said

"I am sorry. I was playing with other kids of orphanage and this cute daredevil of mine just got out"

"It's completely fine. You are?"

"I am Alisha sehgal. This is Kabir Sehgal"

"Let's go Kabir mamu is waiting for us. Chalo"

But he hugged my legs. I bent down and asked

"What happened baby? "

"Will you marry me? "

"I would have but see you are so small how will you kiss me then? "

He kept his fingers under his chin and started thinking so I said

"Let's do one thing. Now, you go but I will wait for some years. When you'll be tall enough. At that time I will marry you"

"My bride is genius" he said happily and I started chuckling. Then I saw his mother. I told her that for some time let him be with me. She agreed.

Suddenly all my little loves came running to me and hugged me but then suddenly Kabir pushed them and said "My bride is so beautiful how will I protect her" he thought for a second and said "Bride I will come in five minutes,be here only " I nodded to him. He turned and said "You all can talk to my bride but no one will kiss her" he threatened all leaving me dumbfounded. I mean he is 8-9 yrs old still he threatened them? He acts so possessive. I chuckled at this.

Oh my babies I missed them. I pecked them all. They started asking for gifts which I gave them.

Suddenly I saw Rudra a child who loves me or should I saw another admirer/groom of mine and Kabir fighting. Wait... Why are they fighting. "Ohh I think you should go and ask them?" said my subconscious in a duh tone.

I went to them and asked them why are they fighting.

"Because he said he loves you and you are his bride"

They both said together I blinked my eyes. I mean I have to check whether they are truly 8 yrs old or not. I highly doubt it.

I said see "I like you both and you both are too small so you both have to wait for some years and when you both grow tall enough I will choose one of you. So,from now only you have to impress me. And I don't like people who fight and don't be friends. So, be friends now. "

They both shook their heads in no.

"Fine. I won't marry any of you" I said.

They quickly mumbled sorry to each other and shake their hands while glaring at each other. God are they serious ? I smile at their antics.

Next half an hour I spent with them playing football. I even slipped once and both kabir and Rudra came running to me. They bought first aid box and cleaned my wound. They looked so mature

Then I sat on the bench Rudra sat beside me. Following Kabir's instructions. "Princess you will sit here only don't move I would have joined you but I like football very much so I can't but this Rudra will sit"

" Don't worry fairy I am with you if you want anything you tell me"

It was now time to go. I hugged everyone. Rudra kissed me on my cheek and said take care and come soon to visit me. I nodded. Kabir gave his number and told me to call him with a wink. I giggled and nodded.

Then, I took Kabir and started to find Alisha. We went in hall where Kabir left my hand and ran to a man whose back was facing me.

"Mamu" he yelled

And the man turned back and I shook my head. WTF what is he doing here?

No. Yrr why I have such a destiny. I didn't wanted to meet this Mr. Whoever again.
