20. The Aftermath

last update Last Updated: 2023-01-21 23:04:56

Elijah's pov

I was sleeping when a shrill tone of my phone broke my sleep.I groaned and got up.

Looking around my surroundings, I understood that I was in Ankita's room and was sleeping on the coach.

Once again my phone rang . I immediately cut it as the sound may disturb Ankita's sleep. My eyes fell on sleeping Ankita. She was sleeping peacefully with IV attached to her hand.

Slowly the incidents of yesterday came to my mind and anger started to rush through my veins.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath . I opened my eyes to see Ankita stirring in her sleep.

I stood up and walked towards her. I stood in front of her.

After some time,she opened her eyes and whispered, "W..a..t..e..r."

I took the glass and helped her to drink the water by lifting her head a little up. Thanks to God that she was in a daze , otherwise she would have refused to drink it from my hand.

"Wh..what ha..p..pe.ne...d to me?" She whispered and tried to open her hazy eyes.

"Good morning, Sweetheart. "

    Ankita's pov Misery ,hatred,humiliated -- these things I felt since the day kissed me. Luckily for the last three days my tormentor is in Germany so I didn't have to see his face.Though Jenny came to meet me ,I wasn't in a mood to listen to her blabbering. I was feeling irritated with everything. I was so drowned in my anger that out of anger I stopped having my food and didn't take medicines. I remember that day I was applying a balm on my head due to the headache. After doing that, I went to the washroom to wash my hands. I closed the door and entered my room. Suddenly everything went back and fell down on the floor with a thud.I don't know how long I was out. When I started to get consciousness, I heard some whispers. Before I could properly gain my consciousness back ,I slipped into a deep slumber. I was in a deep slumber when sunrays fell over my closed eyes,disturbing my sleep. I groaned and opened my eyes but regretted doing that as I felt a sharp pain in my head.Slowly

    Elijah's pov After a week"Randeep,in my studies now." I said in the call.I sat down on my chair and took a deep breath,resting my head on the head rest.I remember what I did a week before.I did something which I had not done for anyone...not even for my parents. I said sorry to her. I can not say sorry to anyone as I feel that it makes me inferior in front of others. But after saying sorry to her I didn't feel anything like that….in fact I felt lighter than before. "But it's your right to kiss her...you are her husband." My mind said to me."But it's wrong to force her." My heart said.I agreed with my heart."Then it's also wrong to marry her forcefully…" my mind said.No no never...I will never sorry to her for that. I did it right. It was bound to happen. I said sorry for the kiss because I promised myself to give her time...but Marriage was the correct thing to do.A week has passed since the incident. Our relationship has somehow come on a track a bit. I am learning to be

    Ankita's pov "What the hell are you doing with my diary?"Hearing his loud booming voice,I jumped and turned around. There he was standing with an angry look on his face.He stood in front of me and picked up the diary which fell down on the floor."I asked you something…." He said in a stern voice .I took a deep breath and said ,"It...it was on the table...so...so I..I picked it up." He sighed and closed his eyes. Taking a deep breath, he said, "It's okay but in future never touch my things without asking me." His voice was softer than before.Trying to control the temper..are we?I nodded and ran out of his room,taking the kitten with me.I came back to my room and shut my door."I kept the kitten deliberately to annoy him as he hates it…surprisingly he didn't get angry . But when I touched his diary,he shouted as if it had some forbidden information...what can it be? I will definitely read it one day...for sure...I dare you Lockwood." I said to myself with a smirk.Time passed

    Ankita's pov The sight in front of me made my jaw drop . There were some people along with the staff running here and there as if they are really busy. I followed them as they went towards the right side of the hall. "What's going on? Who are they?" I asked a staff member ,pointing towards the mess and the unknown people. "Good Morning Madam. They are here to renovate this room as Kitchen. We are helping them." He said and left. "Kitchen?" I asked myself as I saw everyone working there. This room was exactly in the middle of mine and Elijah's room. Does he feel so hungry that he needs a kitchen on this floor as well? "Good morning, Bhabhi." I heard and turned around to see Randeep,smiling brightly at me. I smiled in return though the word Bhabhi made me feel uneasy. "Good morning. " I replied. Only Jenni and Randeep make me feel comfortable here…not totally but still they make me feel. Though Randeep and Elijah are cousins but still very different from each other. Elija

After that ,I took her hand and helped her to come out from the washroom."Sit here." I said and made her sit down on the bed."I wa..want to go ho...home…." She whispered, clutching my hand tight. If I was in my right state of mind ,hearing the word "home" from her mouth I would have danced. But I was so disturbed seeing her so uneasy and restless,I was ready to do anything to make her feel better."Will you be able to walk?" I asked her and she nodded. She stood up,holding my hand and I started to walk towards the living room along with her.On the way she stopped walking. I turned to see her and saw that she was scratching her neck and hands. Then I noticed dark red patches which started to make appearances on her face and body ."What's happening?" I asked. Without wasting any time ,I took her to the living room. "Oh my God!!

I asked her."Yes Bhai...I hope she gains consciousness soon." Jenni said in worry. I looked at Ankita and she was looking pale . Her skin was filled with the red patches and for the next 2-3 days she was going to suffer due to pain."Where did you go ? Who dared to harm her?" Jenni asked me impatiently."My mom did it." I said."What?" Jenni yelled.I told her how she drugged her and harmed her. She was shocked beyond imagination. "This is insane...because of her ego she tried to kill Bhabhi without any of her fault." Jenni said."It's okay..leave it. You can go home now… I will manage. " I said. She didn't object and left.I sighed as I knew that I had to face Ankita's wrath .I sat beside her and waited for her to wake up. ...After half an hour, Ankita started to stir and groaned when she tried to open her eyes."Wa..ter."

Are you okay?" "Umm..I am hungry and craving for some Chow mein…." I said. He raised his eyebrows."Ummm...I am craving for Chow mein made by you…" I said.He smirked and said,"Go to your room...I am making it." Saying this,he went towards the kitchen.I went behind him and saw him making arrangements for the dish."What?" He turned towards me and asked."I am joining you." I said and sat on the chair as he resumed his work,smiling. I hope he understands that I am doing all these as an apology from him...an apology for accusing him without any reason.

    Elijah's pov Before she could continue her blabbering, I took her in an earth shattering kiss and tasted her luscious pink lips. I ravished her soft petals like lips and entered my tongue inside her mouth. I groaned in pleasure due to her sweet and addictive taste. Her moans and grip on my hair were making me more aggressive and passionate. She was trying to match my pace which made me smile. After feeling her being breathless, I stopped and we both separated from each other, panting heavily. Honestly I want more of her. She is too enchanting to resist. "I..guess..now...you don't….have...any...complain." I said within my pants.

This fear is stopping me from talking to her.Moreover, her nonchalant behaviour is bothering me . How can she be so calm after the storm has arised?Why did she agree with that DNA test thing as she knows about the result? I am upset with her for agreeing with that bastard's opinion.Though somewhere I am feeling that she won't do anything without thinking but what if her love for her ex-husband resurfaces? What if she leaves me!!! I have seen the admiration and respect she has for me in her eyes but I know how she loved that bastard. What if that love becomes stronger than her admiration and respect towards me?Most importantly, what if she leaves me ? How will I stay without her and my Anah? All these Thoughts aren't letting me live in peace.But somewhere I am not losing my trust
