____________________________________________________________________
Everyone was happy. Their faces were glowing. And especially Maria's face. Her face had a glow I haven't ever seen before.
My parents were equally happy.
I was wearing the gown Maria chose for me. It was beautiful, pink in colour with shimmer on it.
Pink was never my favourite but still most of the clothes I owned were of pink colour. Strange.
I was in one of the rooms in Maria's house with two stylists along.
One was busy in doing my makeup and the other was there for my hair.Related chapters

SCARLETT'S POV____________________________________________________________________"I invited them here." A voice called out from behind.I turned to look at who spoke. It was Maria.Why would she call them?"But Badima...." Xander was going to speak but Maria cut her in between."Xander, they are professional photographers that I've hired. I want to your photos to be absolutely perfect. You both look so cute together. I want your babies to adore you when they look back at your wedding pictures." She said grinning widely. Her eyes shone so much happiness.

SCARLETT'S POV ____________________________________________________________________ "By the way, I never saw you guys kissing. You can kiss you know, I don't mind. Neither your dad does. Also, Maria doesn't mind too, I'm sure. You kids should show affection, don't be shy because of us."And with a wink, she left me again in an awkward situation. Okay great! Mom sure knows how to make a situation awkward for me and even make the already awkward situation more awkward. Does that even make sense? I could imagine how my cheeks must have heated up on her words.

SCARLETT'S POV _______________________________________________________________________________________ "Missed me , Xandy?" She said looking at him, batting her eyeslashes. Just who the hell she thinks she is.Talking to my man like that? Wait....where did the "my man" come from? God!! I'm going crazy. Xander's jaw clenched on her words.He looked towards me but I immediately turned my head. I didn't want him to see how much upset I was by this. I gazed towards my parents to see them looking confused.Even Maria looked confused. But Shelly on the other hand was smiling.John was lost, I don't know where. It's like he wasn't even interested in whatever was happening around him.I conclude he was bored maybe. "Oh, you kids." Shelly went to them chuckling as if a freaking comedy show was going on. Maria on sensing the situation came

SCARLETT'S POV _______________________________________________________________________________________ There were only roses, petals of roses in the tray. And due to fall, they all scattered around. I was confused. There aren't any rings there laying around. Were...were there not any rings? What? What's happening? "No rings!" Molly exclaimed.She looked pleasantly happy at this. "Ohh, no rings means no engagement, right?" She didn't even try to hide the fact how pleasant she is right now. I wanted to punch her face. "No,Molly. What are you saying?" Shelly also fake gasped. These stupid mom- daughter! Ughhhh!! My chest was rising up and down in anger. I took a deep breath to calm myself down. Xander on sensing my condition, squeezed my hand softly as if to assure me nothing is going to happen.

THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________Xander came out of his room and went to his study.He was mad. Mad at himself.He knows he has a lot of enemies but who could be the person who would try to hurt his Triantáfyllo.No one even knew of his marriage.Who could possibly be behind this?He rubbed his forehead with his fingers. He was tensed.He doesn't want anything to happen to Scarlett, anything bad to happen to both of them.He went to make a drink for himself.The others had already went to their room.A knock on his door disturbed him and his thoughts.With a frustrated breath, he went to open the door of his study."What the fuck do you want?"He was already so tensed and now her.It was Molly.Xander didn't want her around him at all.Rubbi

THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________Xander didn't want Scarlett to get involved with Lucas. That Lucas Rodriguez.But he didn't do anything except clenching his jaw. His fists were clenched too.Scarlett sensed his mood so she immediately hung up saying "bye" to Lucas.Though she still wondered who saved his number in her phone.Xander on the other hand felt pleasant when she hung up the phone.Though he immediately left his room without even wishing her good night.He planned to stay in his study for the night.It is better if he stays away from her. He shouldn't get too close to her.He shouldn't get too attached to her.He realised she was affecting him. She was affecting his emotions, his mood, his everything.So he decided he'll maintain his distance from her. He doesn't need

SCARLETT'S POV____________________________________________________________________Finally!!Today's the day to end all my overthinking about this marriage.It's just so amazing, right? Knowing now you absolutely have no choice but to do that thing. ( Sarcasm, so much sarcasm)Also, why this stupid gown has to look so beautiful anyway? This is soooo pretty.And these stylists also did my hair amazing. My makeup is still natural.I am liking my look though but not the reason behind it.

THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________Xander knew what he did and said was wrong.But he didn't want to get attached to her.He didn't know what he was doing all these past days.He got carried away by feelings and thought, maybe, just maybe, he could also have happiness, he could have a lover, a wife who'll love him, who'll be there for him.But that incident on the day of his engagement felt like a tight slap on his face for even thinking he could ever have love or be loved by someone.Also, he has already lived on his own without needing anyone for so long. He can continue to do so now too.There's no need for someone to enter and mess up his life.And that someone is a certain raven haired beauty he just hurt with his words.He has always masked his emotions. He can do them now too. He was a maste

The flowers of various different colours were arranged in a uniform manner around the entire boundary of the hall. The ruby red and pure pink were the ones that dominated among the flower arrangements. Beautifully embroidered and shimmering golden, thick curtains laced with soft white laces had formed an exquisite bow at the place where the curtain threads are tied, along with the huge hanging chandelier sparkling like diamonds on above and the silent but peaceful cover of the dark night, it all made this date night more special. As I marvelled at the luxurious decorations, a sound came from behind me and no later I felt a light stubble grazing the back of my neck. "Ah, Xander! You startled me."I tried to turn around to face him but his arms held me right around my waist and pulled me closer. "No, just stay like this." He whispered as his breath fell on the skin of my neck. "Huh." I took a deep breath. To be honest, in such a beautiful atmosphere, I have had already lost my he

FLASHBACK CONTINUESI stiffened in his arms the moment I heard his question.Will I ever leave him?Of course, this was a question whose answer I already had in my mind.A year.I'll leave after a year which now might have already been reduced to a few months.But how can I tell him that?So, instead of answering, t tried to change the subject."You...Why are you so...good at speaking Hindi?"Even though what I wanted to ask was "why are you so good to me?".He tightened his arms around me and answered."I'm not.""Hmm?""I wanted to surprise you so I learned that sentence specially for that moment." He voice went low as he spoke the last few words.I could almost feel his breath spraying on my earlobe."Ohh." I nodded in response."I thought you knew Hindu." Chuckling at my own assumption, I turned around."Tell me about you." I said to him, looking straight into his eyes.I wanted to know more about him. Just know, he talked about his mother. I've never heard of her before so I am c

THIRD PERSON'S POVTWO DAYS BEFOREIt was currently 10 at night and the streets were still filled with people moving around.However, if one looked closer and more intently, they would find that most people here were couples.It was a small street with full of shops such a bakeries, cafés and some toy and flower shops.But still, the most dominant smell around the whole street was of bread and cakes.It seemed as if happiness had found home here but still in one corner of a small coffee shop, sat a lonely figure.His heart, full of heartache and sorrow, was aching badly. For some reason, he, at first instinct, chose the window seat and sat there.Maybe he wanted to torment himself more.Valentine week starts tomorrow and all the couples out there were having a warm time as they walked hand in hand or hugging their significant partners in a warm embrace in such cold winter weather.Why?Why can't he enjoy that too?He also wanted to enjoy such warmth with his beloved. He also wanted to

"Umm....I don know."I stuttered.Walking towards him, I smiled awkwardly and answered,"Maybe someone put it outside by mistake."Xander just nodded before walking past me towards that bouquet of roses."It's a mistake then. But I don't like someone giving roses to my wife, even when it's a mistake."Turning around, he flashed me a cold grin."So, let's throw it away."Yeah sure.I had no qualms about throwing this bouquet away so I didn't say anything.By why do I feel a bad premonition? Did I forget something.He turned around and carelessly picked away that bouquet of roses but just then a note slips fell down from amongst the flowers.Oh...!The note slip!That's what I forgot.I immediately panicked."Xander, let's-"But it was already too late. He has picked up the note and read it already.Looking at him being silent and not saying anything, I actually felt a bit anxious.So disregarding whatever might happen, I walked forward and pulled on his arm a little."Xander."Biting t

"It's already the 7th of February."I mumbled while crunching on the special cookies made by my husband.Valentine week has already started and it's evening now but still no roses from this handsome but ice block of a husband of mine.Xander glanced at me before he went back to pouring a cup of coffee for himself and a cup of tea for me.Now, let's clear something up. Yes, he's like a handsome devil just as in those Hot CEO novels and I'm really proud of having such an amazing and handsome man as my husband who's also a chef but..but, the coffee he drinks is the same taste-like, bitter.Blergh!(Just mimicking, don't take it serious)So where were we? Yes, coffee!His bitter coffee, yes. So like the coffee he drinks is not completely black coffee like told in those novels and dramas but the taste is still the same bitter one.So for me, tea is still better."Thanks." I said before taking a sip of my tea."So....""Yes?"I glared at him. Hmph!"What "yes?"?! You didn't even look up fro

"Don't...don't laugh at me." Scarlett stuttered but she still laid on the ground. Raising her hand and putting it on her temples, she rubbed and cried out,"I'm so weak...ah, I can't even get up now. My legs ache...." Casting a side glance at Xander, she continued with her acting.Of course, she came here to do a prank on him.Hoping to disturb in his meeting and that still can be done. And yes, she had already confirmed with the head butler that he was not in a very important meeting as Xander had not given any strict instructions to not disturb him. So she felt it was okay. He's my husband after all.In this way, she convinced herself. Anyhow, now she has fallen down.Hmph! Who said you can't prank after you've fallen on your butt, *cough* *cough* in her case, stomach? "Ahh...Xander, it hurts...." She pitifully cried out him. Her lips pursed together to give the impression as if she's trying really hard to hold back her tears from dripping down. Xander, on the other hand, doe

Pursing my lips, I stifled a yawn as he once again lectured me.I glared at him being sleepy which just made me eyes water instead of looking fierce."Got it." I waved my hand."What do you mean you got it? You need to learn this and recite two time." He insisted."Oh god Xander.....just lemme sleep." I again whined.My sleep, I know you are waiting for me but I'm sorry, my husband is not leaving me tonight.I chuckled to myself thinking what if I say this sentence out loud.Well, let's find out.Looking to a corner towards the fireplace, I muttered, deliberately in a loud voice to make this husband of mine hear."My sleep, I know you are waiting for me but I'm sorry, my husband is not leaving me tonight."Xander's eyes narrowed as he looked at me the moment those words left my mouth.His lips curled up at the corner of his mouth."What did you just say, mou triantafyllo?"I huffed and didn't answer him. Maybe I shouldn't have said that but it's not like I said anything wrong."Want t

Clouds layered across the sky in thick density this day. The rays of sun seemed like they were playing hide and seek with them, coming and going the other moment as if they could just slip out of one's hand at any moment.Xander had not slept the entire night yesterday. He was awake all night, sitting beside his Triantafyllo, just as her guardian.And yes they were still sleeping in separate rooms as it had only been a week since she was discharged.And he had yet to bring up the matter of sleeping in the same room with her.He sighed."ómorfi mou, triantáfylló mou."He placed a long kiss on her forehead as he bent down and stood up a few moments after."Hmm?" Scarlett stirred up as she felt a soft and warm touch upon her face."Sleep sone more. I'll get something for you to eat." He gently pushed the strands of her hair sticking out behind and again laid a soft kiss on her lips before getting up."Uhmm....don't go." Scarlett murmured in her sleep as her hold on his arm grew tight.He

The early rays of the sun shined on the two bodies cuddled together under the white sheets through the large window in the room as the curtains flew slightly because of the wind. It was a nice weather. Nice enough that Xander didn't sleep whole night.His eyes only kept staring at his Triantafyllo. After the doctor had diagnosed her, she has been sleeping till now in her room and he had stayed beside her for the whole night. He was thinking of the words Doctor Mike told him last night when she had fainted. "I don't know how to say this but I guess memories from those years back might be coming back now. It might be bits or fragments of sone moments but this is typically the case when a coma patient or the one who has had amnesia starts remembering things. She must have been overwhelmed by the memory or may be its possible that she might have tried hard to think about it and get the memory of that specific moment altogether which scientifically speaking, is almost not possible and
