Do you... want something?" She asked him, avoiding looking into his eyes.

"Yes…" He replied, eyeing her soft, pink lips.

And everything went silent.

No one said anything: she was waiting for him to say something. The silence was making her more uncomfortable. She looked down and mentally scolded herself for her messy state.

"What will he think about me, now?"

"What..." She asked again, almost in a whisper.

Suddenly he came out of his trance, running his fingers through his hair. He looked away briefly.

"Where is Mrs Annie? Tell her to cook something for me." He said and was to turn around when her sweet voice stopped him.

"This voice!!"

"She is not here." She said.

"What do you mean she is not here??"

"Her shift is not over yet!" He said checking his wristwatch.

"Umm...There was no work... So...." She stammered again. She gulped and looked directly into his eyes to look confident.

He was standing there quietly, waiting for her to complete.

    Samaira had no idea of what just happened. One moment she found him in front of her, and in the next, he stormed out of the cafe.She went to the counter, where Ritika stood looking lost in some deep thought. Ritika was looking at her laptop screen with a sweet smile on her lips."Ritika, what are you doing?" Samaira shook her."I'm dreaming." She mused with a lazy smile.Samaria smiled at her friend's antics. Ritika came out of her dreamland and sat straight."Hey Sammy, did you see the hottie ?" She asked, jumping on her seat with full excitement." What hottie?" Samaira replied with a confused look.She only knows one hottie!Her mind automatically went to Abhimaan - how charming he looked in his formals sitting a while ago in front of her. But then...A slight mistake! He is a hottie with a HOT temper.An Angry Bird."Arey duffer, I'm talking about the man who just left from here. You know who he is?" Ritika said, earning Samaira's attention to listen to her.Samaira understood wh

    A shiver ran down her body, he was standing too close to her. He didn't know what his proximity was doing to her. She breathed sharply."No one walks out on me." He said."So, don't ever do that." He whispered in her ear, making her nervous all over again. She could feel his menacing tone which was enough to lose all her confidence.He made her turn towards him by grabbing her arm. She was looking down - she had lost all her courage."Look at me when I'm talking." He said but she didn't budge. She was fighting with her inner turmoil. His hold tightened on her arm making her wince.He didn't like this strange behaviour of hers. He was feeling insulted by her actions. She was getting on his nerves now.He opened her palm and put the card in her hand, harshly. He pulled her a little closer so she could feel his hot breath on her face.She gasped at his action."Don't ever behave like a brat in front of me. Just do as I say." He said gritting his teeth and unknowingly hurting her.A painf

    "I can't walk anymore"Samaira hissed as her legs ached. She leaned her head behind the wall for support."Samaira, aren't you a girl?" Ritika exclaimed. Samaira gave her a puzzled look.After college was over, Ritika had brought her to a mall for shopping. She wanted to buy some clothes, materials for the seminars as well as the party. There would be a party organized by all the volunteers to celebrate after the function.Ritika wanted to buy a gala dress, as it's her first college party but Samaira was still clueless. She couldn't even decide whether to attend it or not.She is not a party person. She never attended any parties before.Her world was enclosed within her home and her school. She never wanted to give another reason to hear her aunt's taunts. Though her daughter used to attend parties almost every week.She twisted her brows at Ritika's comment."What? How can a girl not like to do shopping? I can go shopping daily, and I wish I could win some lottery." Ritika said thin

    They were both looking at each other, lost in their world forgetting others. He was looking deep into her eyes. His breath fanned on her cheeks, sending a tingling sense of delight down her system.The camera flashes and the sound of clapping brought her back to her senses. She wriggled out of his hold, licking her lower lip in nervousness. She could feel the heat on her cheeks due to his proximity.He was watching her and let her go slowly. She chimed in a sweet "thank you" to others and ran off the stage quickly.He watched her go and get busy with other students. But suddenly his dull mood had now changed to a happy one.Just a little presence of her and he was feeling relaxed.She walked away from the crowd, looking for her friend whom she had just left to receive her trophy. She asked the other classmates about Ritika but they were also clueless. They began to congratulate her on her achievement.She dialled Ritika's number to know about her whereabouts.

    He held Samaira, pressing her face into his chest to protect her against the media covering them. Media came to cover the college program but the news of the country's most eligible bachelor being married was worth more coverage. Also, the incident that happened inside one of the best medical colleges couldn't be ignored.The crowd terrified Samaira more. She was feeling more humiliated but his protective arms were giving her strength - she needed it right now."Sir, when did the wedding take place?""Who's your wife?""Was it your wife who got harassed today?"He gritted his teeth hearing all the rubbish questions they were asking him. He tightened his hold around her when he felt her body shudder.Media people were waiting for them like animals attacking their prey - the moment he stepped out.Abhimaan clenched hard on seeing them, but he needed to take Samaira away from that place first. He would deal with them later. His bodyguards surrounded them and took them safely to the car.

    Abhimaan pressed the security code and entered with her. Both were silent during the whole ride - their minds blaring with too many questions.Suddenly, the environment had changed into one of awkwardness. He could see her flushed face and the way she was avoiding any eye contact with him. He cleared his throat to gain her attention."Umm… You should change into something comfortable." He said pointing to her wet clothes, she nodded meekly and walked to her room.He thought of accompanying her to her room and took some steps but stopped himself and watched her retreating frame.He too went to his room to change his clothes, as the wet clothes began to bother him. He was cursing the rain - he hated rainfalls.He couldn't remember when was the last time he voluntarily got drenched in the rain. But now he was standing there - soaked in the rain from head to toe. He groaned looking at his condition.He changed into his comfortable trousers and t-shirt and picked his phone to call his secr

    ......."Why can't I sleep?"Abhimaan groaned in frustration. He was just lying there for the last 2 hours trying to fall asleep but it seemed today, he was not getting any!Whenever he tried to close his eyes, a pair of frightened eyes flashed before him.Her beautiful eyes!!They should always shine.Her trembling lips!!They deserved to wear a smile."Goodness!!""Have I become so jobless? Why the hell am I just thinking about her?""Maybe I should check her once and then I might get some sleep." He told himself and got up. Maybe it was his restless heart that didn't let him sleep.He strode out and was standing at her door. At first, he thought to knock, then dropped the idea thinking her sleep will be disturbed.At least, let her sleep. He mentally rolled his eyes at his stupidity. But he wanted to check on her once. So, he silently opened the door which - thankfully - was not locked.He looked around the whole room that was wrapped in darkness. He saw her sleeping on the bed, c

    "I want to tell you something." Abhimaan stared at her, feeling what she has to say. Unknowingly, he has this thought in his heart when she told him going to meet Rajat. He cleared his throat to say something but their eye lock got broken by the entering of Nurse. She got up when they did his check-up and other things. All the while his eyes were on her, she talked to the Nurse and listen to everything quietly about his improvement and medicines. Her care for him, her concern are real. Her puffy and tired eyes were telling him how much she has been hurting herself for him. She was leaving him, she was hurt by him but still, she stopped. She stopped leaving and forgetting everything behind. She didn't think about herself in front of him. Selflessly, she is standing by his side despite what he has done to her. I didn't trust her.

"Don't worry nothing serious, it was also important," Samaira said seeing the worry on his face. He nodded."I got the address." He informed her. She looked at him with a surprised expression, in just 1 hour he got it. But she realised his power and position. She didn't say anything, he starts driving for their next destination. When Samaira asked him to come with her, he didn't ask anything. He did what she asked him to do. She wanted to get Rajat and Dhriti's address first. He did that work until Samaira went to that hospital to get the correct reports of Dhriti's abortion with an official note from the hospital authority also.
