He fell on me, locking his gaze on mine. I felt my heart stop for a moment, lost in his twinkling, stardust-filled eyes. He leaned closer, he was going to kiss me. I got that. Something has to quench the fury of heat and electricity that sparked at our breath, catching up and blending in smoothly. I closed my eyes and our lips met while the thought of the door and the key that got us in this position flew out of our heads. At that moment, there was only me and him. He pressed his body against mine in an undeniable force, as if longing to become one. My hands found their way to the back of his neck, pulling him closer, wanting to feel every inch of him against me while his hands caressed my waist. The intensity of our bodies pressed against each other sent shivers down my spine, igniting a fire within me that could only be quenched by his touch. Our lips moved in perfect synchronization, each kisses more passionate and fiery than the last. I could taste the raw emotions that consumed us

***“Hey, madam!” I heard the husky voice of the bus conductor and I opened my eyes. “Aren’t you dropping?” he queried. I looked around me, everyone had gone out except me.“Oh, sorry,” I apologized and got down from the vehicle. I trekked a few distances and I was faced with the small company where I work as an accountant. I hurried inside and Amanda, my best friend flitted to me, holding my hand and pulling me along.“Why are you late again, Nadia?” Amanda queried in a low tone, careful not to be heard by others.“What else makes me wake up late, Mandy? The usual of course,” I responded, overwhelmed by the situation. For the past two months, I have turned into a perpetual latecomer just for a stupid wet dream.“The same wet dream again?” Amanda asked, stopping to face me with her arms crossed over her chest.“Exactly,” I sighed with deflated shoulders.“This is becoming serious, Nadia, come on, you need to do something about it, you can’t just continue living like this,” Amanda state

I got Zeehan some snacks and waited for Amanda to return from the washroom. Finally, she came along. “Were you giving birth in there?” I snapped.“Why? Are you going out?” she asked, moving to Zeehan. “Hey, my little boy. How are you?” she crouched in front of Zeehan.“Hello, Aunt Amanda,” Zeehan greeted.“That’s my boy. Will you give me your biscuit,” she pouted her lips, bringing forward her palm. Zeehan placed one pack of his biscuits into her palm. “Aww! My baby gave me a biscuit. Thank you. You can eat them, okay?” she returned the biscuit and ruffled his hair.“I’m going to see the boss, he called me,” I spoke out.“What happened again?” she asked, standing up.“Who knows?” I shrugged. “Watch out for my baby,” I said and turned to the staircase.I reached my boss’s office. He was standing close to the door. The moment I shut the door, he caged me between his arms, pinning me to the wall.“What are you doing, sir?” I asked, trying to wriggle free.“How come you never told me? How
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Where Dreams and Destiny Lies Chapter 4: How It Began
Nadia's POV “Why now, Mandy?” I asked lowly. “It’s going to break me down,” I expressed. Sadness drove my voice and my heart became heavy with the weight of pain.“You have to tell me, Nadia. I’m your best friend, you shouldn’t hide it from me, please,” she begged. Her eyes glowed innocently, forcing a smile on my face. I sighed and adjusted on the couch again. I nodded.“It all started about nine years ago. I was still fourteen years old then,” I began. “I was a fan of Bollywood. No day passed without me getting stuck in front of the TV, watching my favorite Bollywood movie. A new season movie began and there he was. I was captivated by his good look as well as the role he played in the movie. I couldn’t express the joy that filled my heart and the imagination that struck my head. Seeing him come closer to his fellow female actors twisted my stomach. My feelings remained a mystery but I knew it was something special and I needed to hold on to it. On one fateful day, I took hold of my
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Where Dreams and Destiny Lies Chapter 5: Scandalous Videos
Nadia’s POVI couldn’t stop the video anymore. The reactions from people kept me going. Every day, I will find a comment that motivates me to continue till I get a reaction from Sidd. I aimed to get Sidd’s attention and make him come see me. When the fire of threat starts burning high, he will have no choice. I just hope I am not getting myself into a bigger problem. I became a laughingstock on campus. Everyone murmured at my presence.“What the hell is wrong with you, Nadia?” Joy came along, blocking my way to class. She was my coursemate. Not that we are friends, but we relate like coursemates. “What is the video all about? Who the heck is Sidd anyway? Why are you trying to tarnish the image of the poor guy?” she confronted.“Are you one of his fans, Joy?” I asked, walking past her into the class. She trailed me.“You have become the talk of the campus, if not the whole city. Have you ever crossed the border before? When did you go backpacking in India?” she quizzed. I put my books d
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Where Dreams and Destiny Lies Chapter 6: I Will Visit Her
Nadia’s POVI was losing focus. Fear grasped my heart like two magnets attracting each other. What do I even know about Sidd? What if he is not what he seems on TV? What if I am attracting trouble? What if my mother finds out about the video? I will be in serious trouble. Collapsing on my bed after a long day on campus, I closed my eyes, uniting with my wandering spirit. “Sidd wouldn’t be that bad.” The evil encouragement shot into my head like an arrow. “How can a handsome, soft-spoken, and gentle guy be bad? And how do I know if what I feel is true love or not if I don’t see him in reality? To know the sweetness of a fruit, you have to taste it. Likewise, to know Sidd, I have to meet him, through peace or force,” the thought lifted my spirit again and I opened my eyes, beaming all smiles like shimmering stars. I took my phone and scrolled through the comments. Over 300 comments on my newest video. Wow! How is Sidd feeling about this? I just hope I am not hurting him too much.·

Nadia’s POV“He agreed!!!” Isquealed, jumping up and down in my room. Enthusiasm washed over me. What I wasfeeling currently was beyond mere happiness. It felt like I won the lottery. I twirledacross the floor, letting my hair bounce as I sang joyfully. “What will I wear?What will I wear?” I danced to my closet, opening it wide. It seemed Sidd wouldbe reaching my place by tomorrow even though his message didn’t specify it. “Comingover in a few days.” That’s his text. I finally accomplished my mission andI will have the almighty Siddharth Kaur, the Indian movie star in my home. Howgreat it is to tame a social man. “Woohoo!” I exclaimed, spinning back from thecloset after choosing a simple dress. If Sidd must meet me, then he will see mein my all-natural form. I chose a knee-length flared black skirt with a whitecrop top, adorned with a “fuck you” design at the front. I stood infront of my mirror, beaming satisfactorily. I took a deep breath with myeyes closed. “Got you!” I
