《Celebrity Crush Turned Deadly Love!》 Chapter 1: 1. Yadav Chapter 1: 1. Yadav "Good morning, dad!" Yadav glided down the stairs in his full suit. "Good morning, Yadu! What''s your n for the day?" His dad Aravind asked him while sitting on the dining table. Yadav is the only son of Aravind and Shalini. Only heir to The Rishid Group of Companies. He is a 27yrs young man with terrific talent. He has established himself as a noteworthy person amongst other business tycoons in India in just 2years. Yadav has many principles that pave his way to sess. He neverpromises anything that concerns his business. He is a straight-forward man. He is a very punctual man. He started up a charity when he took over the business 2 years back. He thinks extending a helping hand to people in need is far better than paying huge taxes. He also owns a movie production house of his own. He is one of the top 10 Indians who has no Tax pending. He pays for nearly 1000 heart surgeries every year. He has adopted almost all old age homes and orphanages in Chennai. He pays for their education. There are many college students who are poor, studying through his trust. He even promised employment to the best students. "Nothing special dad. It''s the usual. But I have to go to the spot where our ad-film shooting is going on." He replied to his dad. "Yadu! You know we don¡¯t like your involvement with these girls! Why don¡¯t you..." Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "Come on, dad. Gimme a break. I know what I am doing. I''m going today because it''s thest day of the shooting. I''m meeting the director!" "Yadu, You are getting so many marriage proposals, dear. Why don¡¯t you see the photos?" His mom Shalini asked him as she came into the dining hall. "Ma! Please! I''m just 27. Marriage can wait until I''m 30." "That''s for guys who need to settle in life. You are all ready to start a life. You are the best in everything. Why don¡¯t you just let go of these girls? Listen to me dear." Shalini, though the wife of a billionaire, is a very down to earth persona. She is a loving mother. Her only disappointment with her son is, he has a bad reputation with girls. She is pushing hard on him to get him married. But Yadav just dodges every attempt his parents make. "Ma, please, Don¡¯t start now. I have a lot of work to attend to, today." He denied her yet again. He ate his breakfast in a hurry and went to his car. He self-drives his car. He loves cars. He has a huge collection of thetest cars. Today he took his Te! Once in the car, he called his friend Shiva. Shiva is Yadav''s friend from school. Not very rich like Yadav, Shiva is a wonderful person at heart. Though they didn''t study their college together, Yadav readily epted Shiva in his concern. Yadav always has a special ce for Shiva. That love for him, earned Shiva a good job and a good sry. Shiva works with Yadav and is like a right hand to him. Yadav even lets Shiva attend meetings on his behalf. "Dei! Where are you? Has the flight reached on time?" Yadav asked Shiva. "Hi da! Yeah, the flight is on time. I just came out collecting my baggage. I will be in office in another half an hour if not for traffic." "Oh, you won''t bete. Juste out of gate C. I''m waiting here." "Dei why did youe? I would havee straight to the office." Shiva said. "Pch! It''s ok, da. Come soon. I will drop you off at the office. You carry on with the work. You know what to do." "And where the hell are you going?" Shiva asked him, irritated. "You know that too." "Yadav!" "Don''t start man. I already had an ear-full at home." "You sure will end up with AIDS." "Haha! I always use protection da." "Get lost! You won¡¯t listen. I pity your future wife." "Oh, there is no one like that. Why should I fuck the same girl when I can fuck different girls every night?" "God! Gross! It''s not just about sex, idiot. I''m out already. I saw your Te." "I see you too. Come." The car left the airport and started floating on the Chennai traffic. Shiva always tries and stops every girl that tries to approach Yadav. He almost stopped him from every morning attempts by bringing him some work or by sending those bitches away saying Yadav is busy. But Nights are solely for Yadav. "Dei you have to sign that Kapoor''s contract today. I will call our attorney now." "Our model for this ad is Mouni. You know how desperate she is for me. She has openly asked me to stay with her today, da. I gave her my word." "Your word my foot! Why are you doing this Yadav!? Don''t you feel like you are doing wrong?" "We already had this conversation, Shiva. I don''t go to girls. Theye to me. I don''t touch girls who are not interested. I don''t do rtionships. I clearly tell them that it''s just sex and nothing more. They give me pleasures and in turn receive pleasure from me. I don''t favor them for this in any way. I like this. Nomitments. Just let me be as I am." "But with just sex, you will get bored soon. You need love, Yadav!" "You mean like in movies? Love doesn''t exist in today''s world, idiot. Pleasures and money are the only things that exist." "You are wrong! Aplete life needs love. I''m really worried for you. Stop this all soon, Yadav. What if this fling of yours gets in the way when you find your love?" "That''s a hypothetical question. You check on the contract and I will sign it at noon. I won¡¯t be there for more than 2hrs. I will be back soon." "Huh! Ok!" Yadav dropped Shiva in his office and went to the shooting spot. Chapter 2: 2. Akshitha Chapter 2: 2. Akshitha "Akshu! Come and learn some cooking at least until you go to Chennai. It will help you there!" Sumathi, Akshitha''s mom, was shouting from inside the kitchen. "Mee! I''m busy now. Will learn during dinner." Akshitha shouted from her room. Coonoor is a beautiful ce. It''s very close to Ooty! But it is notmercialized like Ooty. Coonoor has its serene beauty still maintained. Akshitha and Sumathi have a littlend and a house of their own. They nt strawberries, carrots, beetroot, celery and broli. The local farmers market buys their yields for a good price and that serves them for their living. They have 3 people working on their farm. Akshitha and Sumathi also work their part. Akshitha is now busy cutting out her recent admiration''s picture from a magazine. She has a problem called ''celebrity crush''. Over the years, she has crushed on many people. Her first celebrity crush was actor Vijay and then Hritik Roshan and then Surya and then she liked Virat Kohli and then Rana Daggubati. After him, it''s now Yadav Rishid! She''s been following him sincest year when he got the young Entrepreneur award. Every news channel talked about him. Since he looks so hot and handsome, he''s be the most searched man on google. But then, he came in all the magazine covers. He''s caught in a lot of gossip. He is seen with many actresses. That gave him continuous media attention. Akshitha is actually happy about those gossips. Because that is what is keeping him seen. She has downloaded almost all of his pictures online on her phone. She is crazy enough to paste his pictures on her room walls. Kavya, her friend, always used to tease her for her fantasies. Kavya lives in Coimbatore. Akshitha and Kavya studied in an engineering college in Coimbatore. Akshitha stayed in college hostel. "Hey loosu, open your eyes and see the guys who are behind you. What is the use of crushing on someone who doesn''t even know you exist? Our ss Suman is dying for your looks. And you are looking at this man who lives far away." "Pch! I love this man, Kavi! Look at him. OMG! He is so handsome. A look at that dimple on his cheek when he smiles. If I happen to see him face to face, I will surely kiss those dimpled cheeks." "Nut case! What happened to your love for Rana? Has he disappeared?" "No! Rana has a special ce in my heart. But this man owns my whole heart. Never once have I ever felt so much pull on someone like I have on him, Kavi. Yash is totally killing me." "Huh this is what you say on every new crush you have. Yash? His name is Yadav, right?" "Hehe! Yadav Rishid for everyone. Yash for me." Kavya just threw her a look which says Akshitha is a lunatic. Akshitha has been doing this stupidity from her 3rd year of college. She almost knew everything about Yadav. Like where is his house, how many cars he does he own, where does he travel, his favorite car, how many actresses are behind him, etc., Sumathi knows everything about what her daughter is up to. She just let it go, because these crushes won¡¯t bring any harm. Or at least that is what she thought at the moment. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. Behind Akshitha''s home is a tea estate. It''s one of the biggest estates in Coonoor. There is a big mansion in that estate which has its backyard facing Akshitha''s house''s backyard. The shared Benjamin is the owner of that estate. He is a 60yrs old man. Akshitha calls him ''Jamin Uncle'' in short (Zameen is a title given tondlords). He lives all alone with a servant in that mansion. He has a daughter who lives in Mumbai. She won''t visit him often. But his granddaughter Emily will visit him every summer. Emily is a couple of years elder to Akshitha. They don¡¯t get along well from childhood. Akshitha will call Emily as ''Eli'' (mouse) that infuriates Emily. Emily is a beautiful girl and she knows it. She hails from Mumbai and hence wears all modern outfits. It suits her the best. She always looks down on Akshitha and it irritates Akshitha. Since Jamin uncle is lonely, Akshitha serves a goodpany to him. He will listen to anything and everything Akshitha has to say. A part of his estate is covered with corn fields. Akshitha will steal sweet corn from the field with her friends Manoj and Rahul every other evening. Jamin uncle knows it but he let go of it because it''s her who makes his life lively and colorful. Manoj and Rahul are 3years younger to Akshitha. They are her neighbors. She knows them from their birth. They are like brothers to her. Since she is a single kid, she appreciated theirpany. They used to do all sorts of mischief. They all even got beaten up by Sumathi for their deeds. But nothing has changed them.Akshitha usually jumps thepound wall to go to the mansion! Her mom is literally against this but Akshitha holds Jamin uncle''s support! Yeah! Who will walk almost 2kms around, to go to the mansion when it¡¯s just 2minutes away!? Chapter 3: 3. The Spoiler Chapter 3: 3. The Spoiler Akshitha ran as fast as she could to catch up with Yadav. Yadav has 2 bouncers alongside him. She has a very little chance of meeting him. But she is not letting go of the chance she has got. She was in The Express Avenue when she saw himing inside. She took off without telling her friends. Once she got close to him, she just stood in front of him stopping him from going further. "Hi! I''m your die-hard fan. Can I have a selfie with you please?" He had a puzzled look on his face but nodded his head in agreement. His bouncers moved aside, giving her way. Akshitha went near him with her phone. He posed for her a little bent. "um... Smile please." She said when she saw him posing without a smile. She clicked many pictures with him. When she saw his dimple, she couldn''t stop herself. She stood on her tippy toes and kissed his cheek. "um... sorry! I...like..." She couldn''t speak any longer because her lips were now tangled with his! He started kissing her on her lips so passionately that she held his shirt on his torso. OMG! "Hey Akshu, wake up de. Idiot, it''s already 10am. We need to go shopping. We just have 10more days to go to Chennai. We have so many things to buy. Come on. Wake up." Kavya was pulling her nky to wake her up. "Pch! Wastnd, You spoiled a beautiful dream. I kissed Yash on his cheek. You know what he did?" Kavya pped herself hard on her forehead. "God! damn your dreams. Get up." "He kissed me back on my lips, de. OMG, That was so real. You disturbed me at the right time. I hate you." Akshitha chided Kavya and went to the restroom. Kavya just looked at Akshitha''s room. Her room walls are full of Yadav''s pictures. She is crazy enough to make photo prints of his pictures. She has a big 20x30 picture of him on the wall beside her bed. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "Kavi, here take this coffee. She will be ready in half an hour. I made breakfast for you too." "Thank you, aunty. But I already ate. Aunty, why don''t you stop her madness? She is getting crazy. Why do you allow her to paste these pictures on the walls aunty?" "Haha! What do you want me to do? She won¡¯t listen. At Least I''m happy that she loves only celebrities. That way it will just stay as a crush. It''s quitemon. She makes photo prints with her pocket money. Now she has asked me for money to buy a 20x30 frame for this photo. haha!" "What?!?!Aunty, this is getting too much. We are going to Chennai. This guy lives there. I don¡¯t know what is going to happen. She is too much into him, aunty. She hasn''t printed Rana''s pictures like this. Or she has never posted anything on her walls before." "Haha, There''s nothing wrong in taking a picture or two with this guy. I''m sure this fantasy of him will subside when she gets a chance to meet him. What now? I will look for a groom just like him for my Akshu." "Ha it''s actually you that spoils her aunty." Akshitha came out of the restroom after bathing when Kavya said that. "How exactly is my mom spoiling me?" Akshitha asked Kavya. "Nothing my love. Just get ready fast. I have toe drop you again in your home and go to my home before night!" Yeah! Kavya has a car. She hase all the way to Coonoor from Coimbatore to pick up Akshu for shopping. They have nned their shopping in Coimbatore. Kavya again has toe to Coonoor to drop her and then have to go to her home back in Coimbatore. "Kavya! Just drop her in the bus stand ma. She wille on her own. Why are you going to and fro? It''s too tiring for a day." "Meee! I cannote in the bus with all the things we shop for. Instead, I can stay with Kavi ande back tomorrow? What do you say?" Akshitha asked her mom. "I knew this was your n all along. Ok oke back tomorrow. Jamin uncle wanted to see you. He called me in the morning. Pay him a visit when you go!" "Mmm ok mee!" Akshitha spoke whilebing her long ck hair. They started after having their breakfast. Akshitha asked Kavya toe to the front of the estate bungalow in her car. She jumped the compound wall to go see Jamin uncle. Benjamin''s PoV My life here is getting very lonely by the day. Akshu was my onlypany here. She spends almost all her time here with me and in the corn field. She goes home only for sleeping. But that changed when she joined her college in Coimbatore. I started feeling very lonely. She would visit every other weekend. Ofcourse, she would be here most of the time. But that doesn¡¯t make up for the times I lost without her. She is a pure soul. She talks to me about everything. She will bring me food from her home whenever she cooks or something special. She will read books with me. We both watch old movies together. I have a huge collection of old movie CDs. She also brings cd of old movies which I love but don''t have the cd of. She learned how to swim in the pool in my backyard. She will y there with her friends on every sunny day. She is a self-learner. Later now, she uses YouTube to refine her swimming skills. Now she is going to go to Chennai. She can¡¯t visit us often. Just like waiting for Emily, I should wait for Akshu too. Life of an old man in this big mansion is quite boring and ufortable. Joseph is my helper here. He stays with me until I sleep at night. He wille early in the morning. But he is not a talkative person nor an educated person. So yeah! I''m nning to sell my estate for good and move out somewhere, where there are many people around. I have called her to inform her about my decision. She is like my child. I owe an exnation to her. Here shees. "Uncle! What''s up? Do we have a movie to watch? Whatnguage uncle? Who is the hero? Jaishankar or Shivaji?" "Come dear. Nope. No movie today. Your mom told me that you are going to Coimbatore for your Chennai shopping." "Yeah uncle. I will stay the night with Kavi and will be back tomorrow. I promise we will watch ''Kaadhalikka NeramIi'' tomorrow!" "Haha, Ok dear. The reason I called you is to tell you that I''m nning to sell our estate." "What? Why uncle? Everything is going as usual, right? Even the corn gives you so much profit. Why are you selling uncle? Where will you live if you sell this mansion?" "Dear! I already felt so lonely here after you went to college. Now you are going to work. Next you will get married. Your time here will be very meagre. The whole point of me staying here is you dear. Now that that point is gone, I''m nning to move out to a small ce where there are many people to be with." "Uncle!" she cries. Oh No! "Please dear, I didn¡¯t tell you this to upset you. I''m getting many offers now. It would not be nice if you hear it from someone else. That is why I myself told you. Please don¡¯t cry." She sat down near my legs on the floor and put her head on myp. I started patting her head. "Uncle! Why do you want to move to some other ce? Come stay in our home uncle. Don¡¯t go uncle!" "Haha! Again, it will be just your mom and me. That won''t work dear. Talk like a grown up. Besides, I will still feel lonely." "Thene with me to Chennai! We shall stay together there! We can watch movies daily. I will cook for you! What say!?" The spark in her eyes is the thing that makes her special. "Will see dear. Wherever I go, I will be in touch with you. Now go finish your shopping. Remember your promise for tomorrow." "I''m not happy with your decision uncle. Kavi is waiting. I will talk to you about this tomorrow. Bye uncle!" "Bye dear!" I wish all good things to happen in her life! Her life should be as happy as she is. Chapter 4: 4. Pain In The A Chapter 4: 4. Pain In The A Shiva''s PoV I''m now rushing in this damn traffic to reach Le Meridian! Yadav is there stuck in a room. He went with a popr heroine to a party there. God knows what happened, they ended up together in a room. For god''s sake, it''s a cine industry party with a pool of media waiting for some cheesy story. He''s now stuck there. The reporters are waiting outside like ants in sugar. I still don''t know how I am going to bring him out without getting caught in the media. Aravind uncle is already upset. If aunty gets to know or happens to see a picture of him in the news tomorrow, she will be shattered. Hell with his flings. He shouts at me through the phone to shoo away the media. He is worried for his mother. I don''t know where he rented his worries when he went along with that bitch. "Hey Raghu!" I went to the manager of this hotel. We are well known to each other as we do all our business parties here. "Hi Shiva, I tried to get these people out. But they are so adamant. They want a picture of your boss and that actressing out together from that room. What can I do?" "Pch! Aunty is already upset, Raghu! Your rooms don''t have connecting doors? Or a way at the back? Through the balcony? Anything? Is there a pool behind his room? Like he can jump from there straight in the pool?" "Hahaha, What are you talking about? It''s not a movie. We do have connecting doors. But it''s just between 2 rooms. Anyways he can''t escape from these people''s eyes." "God!" I scratched my forehead when I got a call! It''s him, Idiot. "Dei, Is everything clear? Shall wee out?" "Idiot there is no way they are going. There is no other way for you to escape. It''s not good to stay there longer. Already they will cook up stories on this. If you stay the night, then they will write that you are married to that bitch." "Pch, I''m not worried about their shitty stories. My mom will give me loads of lectures and will bring a girl tomorrow to marry. Wait, I will call you back." "Dei!" He hung up the call. I wonder what strikes him now.I started waiting impatiently for his call. But then there was amotion in the front of the reception area and all the reporters¡¯ attention went there. The leading item dancer in movies now hase with very minimal clothing! Oh, this is his n. We acted so quick and got him out of that room when that dancer held captive all the reporters. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. Once in the car I started shouting at him. "What the hell, Yadav? I won¡¯te to your rescue ever again. You are getting so used to this now. This is not good. I''m telling on you to mom." "Shiva, Chill man. You didn¡¯t rescue me this time. It''s my sexy girl who rescued me." "You didn¡¯t meet her after that dreadful day right? How the hell did she agree to help you?" "Haha, That''s how good I''m in bed. She agreed after I promised to spend a day with her." "Shit, You are totally spoiled. I''m not talking to you again. We will be like an employee and boss henceforth." "Pch, Don''t talk like this Shiva. You know that I don¡¯t like it when you talk like this." "Let it rest, Yadav. You won¡¯t listen anyways. Why should I say anything?" "Ok da. I will surely avoid these kinds of situations henceforth. I promise. It''s not my fault. They just stick to me. Even today, she asked me for a dance. She turned the dance into something else that we end up in a room with." "Put a strong mask on your face, like you do in our office, around these girls. We have thousands of girls working in our office. None of them have that courage to even see you in the eye. You let these models and heroines flirt with you. You are allowing them. Sex is not just fucking, Yadav, It''s called love making. These sex partners won¡¯t give you what you should actually feel in making love." "That''s work, Shiva. I can''t y there. Even here, once a movie starts in our production house, I will be completely professional with the actors. Remember Mouni? Our ad film shooting took ce for like 10days. I visited her only on thest day, that too after packing up. And about your philosophy, fucking is also called as love making!" "Huh, There is no shortage of this logic. Uncle knows it already. You have to face him." "God! Shall I sleep in your home today?" "Haha no way. My mom hase back!" "God, She is an exact photocopy of my mom. It''s better to face my dad." "Haha ithu thevaya? (haha is this all necessary?)" "Pch life is to enjoy da. A little beer and some girls are no harm. I don''t smoke, I don''t drink hot drinks. I don''t do drugs. I work hard all week. I need some rxation, da. I find pleasure in this. It''s just on weekends. That too only on Saturday nights. You spoil almost my every day-time appointment." "God, I can''t even hear your dirty confession and whining. Save some for your future wife da." "Haha look at you. You are 27yrs old virgin. You say you are saving yourself for your wife. I say you are afraid to explore. Or you didn''t get a chance!" "Get Lost! " With that I dropped him in his home and drove off. Aravind''s PoV I''m worried sick of my son''s behaviortely. At first, I thought them to be just rumors. But rumors don¡¯t last long. He is repeatedly seen with many girls who were popr. Though we are rich, we have never exerted so much media attention so far. We were not into the cinema industry so far. Yadu started his production house as soon as he took over the empire. His good looks, awards, his charity and these flings are keeping him hot in the media. Since we are not used to this media thing, Shalu is really worried for Yadu''s future. There are many business friends who are ready to marry their daughters to Yadu. There are many girls who are models who have openly stated in the media that they are willing to marry him. But Shalu doesn''t like any of them. She is looking for a bride in her home-town! She hails from Coimbatore! But none of her rtives are ready to ept my son! After all, they read and see news! This is the reason for my Shalu''s worry. She is now afraid that no good girl will marry Yadu. Yadu is not a bad guy. It''s not like he cannot live without these flings. He is not serious about his personal life. He thinks that this is enjoyment. As a father, I cannot openly speak to him about this. But it''s getting out of hand. I''m going to talk to him for sure tonight. There hees. "Yadu! Come to my study. I want to talk to you." "In the Morning, dad!" "Now!" I said sternly. "Huh! Ok!" I went into my office room and waited for him. He came after changing to his shorts and tshirt. "Yes, dad." "Yadu, You know what this is about." "Dad, I''m notfortable talking about this with you. Just let it go, dad. I will be careful next time." "Yadu, There shouldn''t be a next time. Your mom is worried sick for you. None of her rtives are ready to ept you as their groom because of your y-boy tag." "Dad, I''m not ready for marriage. In Fact, I don¡¯t want marriage. So, what''s the problem in them not epting me?" "You don''t want marriage now. What happens when you get ready? This y-boy tag will not just vanish, Yadu. You have a very high reputation in business. People awe you for your aplishments at this young age. Media praises you for your charity work. Your production house yields a very good profit and within 2yrs you made a ce for yourself in the cine industry. All this glory just fades away with your y boy image, Yadu!" "Dad, I''m not living for the media. I''m living for myself. I work because I love it. I like doing charity. Cinema is kind of an attraction to me. So, I started producing movies. And about the girls, dad, they come to me. People have many issues of their own. No one will talk about me like you say. They talk only when you talk about my marriage. So just quit it, dad!" "That''s not the solution, Yadu. I''m giving you 1year time to clear your damn image in the media. You will marry a girl your mom chooses next year. You need love to reform yourself. So, if you fall in love with a good girl in the meantime, that is ok with us too." "Dad!" "End of argument. Good night, Yadu!" I went to our room to face the wrath of my love. She mes me for his activities. She says that I should have reprimanded him from the start. May be true. But Yadu is the kind of guy who breaks the rule if any. Let''s see what change my little talk brings in him! Chapter 5: 5. A New Get-Away Chapter 5: 5. A New Get-Away Akshitha''s PoV Yay! Finally, in Chennai. My mom and Kavi''s mom came along with us to settle us down in a house as Paying Guest(pg) in Chennai. Kavi and I are going to share our room. We are going to work in the samepany. Our moms stayed with us for a day and showed us around the ce we are going to live. Our PG provides us with breakfast and dinner. We have to manage lunch in the office. They will provide lunch during weekends. We also have many good restaurants around our PG. We have a grocery market nearby too. My mom has shipped my two-wheeler (scooty) here for our use. It will reach us by this weekend. Anyways, we have decided to get to know the ces around first by travelling by bus. We still have 3 days for our joining date. We are now getting ready for bed. Our first night in Chennai, all alone. "Hey Akshu, I''m already missing my home. How the hell did you manage to stay in a hostel for 4 years?" Kavi asked me. "You will get used to it, Kavi. Don¡¯t worry. New ce, New office, New work. The time we need to settle in those things will make you forget about home. Anyways, we will talk to our moms everyday through Video call. You won¡¯t miss anyone. Besides, you have me, babe!" "Yeah, It''s because of you, my mom agreed to send me to work. That too just for 2years." "Hey Kavi, Don''t over think! We have 2years of lonely bachelor life. No mom. No pestering. No one to question. We have to enjoy it!" "Haha, Ni thirundhavey maatta! (haha you won''t change!)" "Pch, now stop your mncholy! Hey, we have 3 days before going to the office. How about we go and see Mahabalipuram and ECR?" "I know what you are up to. I''m noting anywhere." "Please, de. Yash''s house is in ECR. Beach house! We will just go and roam around that area. I may get a chance to see him. What do you say?" I asked her excitedly. "Are you going to sleep now, or do you want me to call your mom?" "Cha, My mom is far better than you. Bad Night. Devil Dreams!" I pulled my nket over my head and switched off the lights. Kavi is a strict officer. Our 4years of friendship is so strong that she just reads my mind through my eyes. I have to do something to make her ept to go to ECR. I don¡¯t exactly know his address. But I have seen his house on the inte. That''s not a house. It¡¯s a pce. I totally wish I could see him once. He is totally a charmer. I have to call Jamin uncle tomorrow. He is totally out of his mind. He is selling a beautiful property because he feels lonely? I mean who in the right mind would do that? I tried talking him out of this stupid idea. But he didn''t even nudge a bit! So, I have decided to talk to him on a regr basis to stop him feeling lonely! He was right in something. I won''t be there as I used to be. If he sells his estate, then I should be more careful in taking corn. Stealing is a strong word. We just take 3 or 4 corn every other day. Now, only if I go there. That''s not huge! Yadav''s PoV I have always wanted to buy a property in hill stations. We do have a resort, kind of an extended stay in Kodaikanal. But this pestering media knows about that ce. I now need a quiet get away ce for myself where nobody knows who I am. I have made Shiva look for some hill station real estate agents. It will be registered in Shiva''s name to be safe! We are now going to Ooty in Shiva''s car. "How many properties are we looking at, Shiva?" I asked him. "Our agent said there are 7. 3 mansions, 2 tea estates and 2 estates with mansions." "We will skip the 2 tea estates. We are not here for farming. That would be another task in my regr work." "Will see da. We can appoint a manager to look after it. We shall visit whenever you feel like. Why are you shutting it out before seeing it?" "Dei you know the purpose of looking for a property? These reporters are bing a pain in the ass. It''s because of them, I get lectures from you all. It''s because of them we are now going in your car like an used fearing for cops!" "Hahaha, You give them hot cheesy stories. If you stop giving them chances, they will leave you alone. People are not very much interested in your other good works. Eventually the pain in your ass will subside." "Nakkal ah? (Enough of your Sarcasm!?)" "Nope! That''s the fact!" "pch, How long are we yet to reach?" "3more hours!" "Ok! I will check my mail. I have some work too. If you want to switch, let me know." I told him and immersed myself in my pile of work. "No problem. I can drive. But while returning you have to drive." "Ok ok!" I was totally engulfed in my work until he called my name. "Yadav, We reached. Get down. Just rx your muscles. I will call the agent." I got down. I love this climate. The chills made goosebumps on me. This will be my perfect getaway ce. "Yadav, that guy is on his way. He will be here in 5minutes." "What the hell!? We told him the time already and he is making us wait?" "Rx man! Enjoy the climate." The real estate agent came running to us. "Sorry sir. I came here early. Just went for a tea. Shall we go sir? The first property is just 10minutes away." "10 minutes? This ce is very crowded andmercial." Shiva said. "Yes sir, that is why this property is a hot one in the market now." We went there. I disliked it at once. Actually, I disliked every other property he showed. Ooty has be very popted. Shit! "Sir, we still have 2 more properties. One in the outskirts of Ooty and one in coonoor." "Both of them have mansions with it?" "No sir, the one here is tea estate. The one in Coonoor has a mansion, tea estate and a corn field." "Then we will go to Coonoor." Shiva said. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. We headed to Coonoor with the agent. I don''t have high hopes now after seeing everything he showed. I think this trip is a waste of time. Whoa! This is it! I instantly liked the surroundings and the mansion. This ce is very quiet and not very popted and notmercialized like Ooty. The scenery is serene. The tranquility gives me inner peace. Climate is awesome too. We had a tour of the estate and the mansion. We spoke to the owner Mr. Benjamin. "Hi sir, your estate is awesome. This mansion is a plus. I totally like it. Why are you selling it? I mean this ce is so mesmerizing." "Thank you, Mr. Yadav. Yeah, This ce is my home. This holds many memories. I don¡¯t have descendants to look after this estate after me. This ce needs love Mr. Yadav. I started feeling lonely here. I''m nning to go somewhere where there are more people." "Oh, It must be very hard for you to leave this ce." "Oh yeah, But I''m selling it wholeheartedly." "Thank you! I love this ce. We are in. Rest will be handled by Shiva." "I''m d! Thank you, Mr. Yadav!" Ok, All set. I''m happy with this purchase. This ce is going to be my paradise. "Mr.Benjamin, I''m nning to make this ce like an extended stay. I will appoint a manager to look after this ce. What I mean to say is, there will be people here for yourpany. You can still stay here. I can allot a room for you!" "Wow, Thank you for the offer Mr. Yadav. I will think about it." "Sure, Mr. Benjamin. See you on the date of registration. Shiva will take it from here." Job done! This trip is not a waste of time after all! Chapter 6: 6 . A Meet-Up Chapter 6: 6 . A Meet-Up Akshitha''s PoV This girl is tiring. She woke me up at 6am saying it is a trial run for tomorrow! 6AM!? She says it¡¯s a practice day. We got ready just like we will go to the office. We stepped out of our PG at 8.30. We boarded the right bus at 8.35. We made sure that this bus''s timing is the same everyday. We got down like a soaked paper, at our destined stop at 9.15am. We started walking to our office building from there and reached it at 9.30am! Bingo! We are here before 10! "I think we should start a little early tomorrow. We should be here by 9am. If we are here by 9am then we can leave by 5pm. It takes almost an hour to reach. So, we can reach our PG by 6pm safely." I just threw her a look. She is ridiculous. We woke up at 6 to reach here at 9.30. She wants me to wake up at 5.30? No way. Besides, I was living in paradise for so long. This Chennai is like Oven. It literally cooks me inside out. I truly wonder how people here survive. I mean it''s really hot, very crowded. "No way! 6 o''clock is the earliest I can wake up. Not a minute before. Besides, no one will eat you if we go half an hour after 6pm to our PG. " "Pch, New city. Are you not afraid? Everyone here looks like an used to me." "Shhh, Quiet! Someone may hear you. You are inviting trouble for us. See we are already out now. Come let''s go to the beach. I have never been to Chennai before. There are many ces here that are worth seeing. Including ECR." "Ni thirundhavey matta! (you will never change!)" "Pch! Va de! (Pch!e already!)" Our office is in Sholinganallur. We took the bus to Marina beach. We yed there in the water for a while. We walked along the waves until our clothes dried. We took the bus to our PG. Yeah, She said a big no to ECR. We had our tummy full in a restaurant near our PG. "Hey wait here. I will pay the bill ande." Kavi said. I was standing outside when a Porsche car came by. Wow! Yash has a Porsche in his collection. Is this the one? I forget to even blink when that car stopped near me. But all my enthusiasm died when ady got down. She must be of my mom''s age or even bigger. But she is so beautiful. She went past me to the building next to the restaurant with a huge dog. It''s a pet clinic. That huge dog sniffed me when it came near me. I''m a dog lover. I instantly knew that this was a Rajapyam dog. A very wealthy woman grows our native fierce dog instead of some foreign breeds. I sat down and let him sniff me. "Hey Bruno, No. Sorry ma!" thatdy spoke to me. "Oh, it''s ok aunty. I love dogs. He is magnificent! He is just curious about me." "Oh, you are not afraid of him? Strange!" she said. I smiled at her and started petting Bruno. He wags his tail at me like a baby. A he sure is terrifying. But with his antics, I know he likes me too. "Haha I don¡¯t know, aunty. Dogs usually like me. I have a special connection with them." I told her. "Nice meeting you, dear. I''m runningte for his appointment." "Sure aunty. Carry on!" But then Bruno sat on the spot and refused to walk. "Come on, Bruno! Please!" She looks like she is not used to bringing him here. "um... aunty! If you don¡¯t mind, shall I bring him in?" "Yes, please dear. He is my son''s responsibility. He is out of station today. So, he asked me to take him to his check up." "It''s ok, aunty. I can help. My friend is here, aunty, let me inform her. I will be here in a minute." I ran in to inform Kavi. When I came out Bruno was still sitting in the same spot. I think he knows why he is here. He is scared of the doctor. I took his leash from aunty and asked her to go to the clinic. After she went in, I sat near him and started petting him. "Come on, Bruno! I will give you a treat if you listen to me now. Be a good boy. Come on!" He put his face near me wagging his tail. I kissed him on his head and got up. Strangely, he got up too andplied with me. We went in and the doctor brought the muzzle, Bruno freaked out again. "Do you use it on him every time he visits you, doctor?" I asked him. "No, madam. Usually Rishi sir will hold his mouth tight." "Oh! I will hold him today. Don¡¯t use that on him." "Dear, don¡¯t take risks. He is in for his shots today. Let him muzzle up." Aunty said. "My name is Akshitha, aunty. Trust me. Bruno will be fine." "Oh dear, I''m talking for your safety." "I can handle him aunty." I patted Bruno and he nuzzled his nose on my face. I hugged him with his face on my shoulders and started to soothe him by caressing him. When I felt him at ease, I asked the doctor to inject him. Bruno took it with just a jerk and a little whine. "You are amazing, Akshitha. I really can''t believe that Bruno is this calm. He never let anyone touch him except for me, my son and my husband. Our maids are very scared of him. But he obeys you like a little puppy. Thanks for your help dear." "Thank you, aunty. It just takes a little trust. I love dogs, aunty. Don¡¯t mention it. It''s my pleasure to help you today. Nice meeting you, aunty. see you Bruno." I sat down and kissed him on his head. "Here, Take my number, Akshitha. I totally like you. Give me your number. You areing to my home this weekend." "Oh! um... It''s ok, aunty." "Where do you stay dear?" "Um... I''m staying in that PG aunty. We are new here. Our office is at Sholinganallur. We are yet to join." I said pointing to our house. "Oh, then what is your native, Akshu? Can I call you that?" "Sure, aunty. I''m from Coonoor. My friend is from Coimbatore." "Wow, My native is Coimbatore too." "Haha I can see that with your ent, aunty!" "I will send you a car on Saturday at 10am. You are having your lunch and dinner with us. I will drop you safe at your PG. If you want me to take permission from your parents, I can talk to them." "It''s ok, aunty! Do you mind if my friend joins me?" "Oh no problem. You both are wee. Besides, Bruno will be happy too." "Haha sure, aunty!" "Ok Akshu, Will see you on Saturday." "Ok, aunty. Bye! Bye, Bruno!" N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. They left leaving me in awe! She is an amazing person. She talked like we have known for years. She doesn¡¯t seem to show off her wealth. I like this aunty so much. Chapter 7: 7. Possible Visit? Chapter 7: 7. Possible Visit? Yadav''s PoV My mom has gone nuts! She says she has invited a stranger girl to our home just because she helped her with Bruno! She even has that audacity to tell me that she would be happy if a girl like heres home as her daughter-inw! I can''t believe Bruno let a stranger touch him. I''m so mad at him. Tiger is now in my room and Bruno is scratching the door to let him in. He is staying out tonight. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. Bruno and Tiger are my life! They are my stress relief! They give me immense happiness. I actually love how they both love me! Now hearing mom, that stranger girl has not even held his mouth during the shot and he just whined? That means, he loves her! Whoever she is, I hate her for this. Bruno can''t love someone like he loves me!Mom has asked me to stay home on Saturday for lunch! I''m so not meeting that girl. I''m not leaving Bruno too! I will take Bruno to our guest house. She can''t see him again. Kavya''s PoV This girl has gone nuts! She says she is going to a stranger''s house just because she was nice to her and invited her. She asks me to apany her! Idiot! She can''t be this naive! In a new city, just the first day of being on our own, she befriended a stranger. The only good thing about this is, that stranger is ady! NUT CASE! How am I going to protect her? "Are you insane? How can you go to a stranger''s home? Idiot! What if it''s a trap? What if it''s a kidnapping group? I''m not going anywhere, and you are not going too! If you don''t drop this now, I will tell your stupidity to your mom!" "Pch! Ok, ok! We are not going! Happy?" "Idiot!" I mumbled to myself. "Shall we go to the TV hall?" she asked me like nothing had happened a minute before. "No! They won''t allow us to change channels. We have a phone! Watch whatever you want to, here!" "You are so boring! I''m going to talk to Jamin uncle! Don''t show your stoic face to me!" she yelled at me! I really wanted to smack her hard for her insensitive behavior. But I know her too well, she is not going to let this go just like that! Akshitha''s PoV There is no way this girl is going to apany me. I don''t see any bad intentions in that aunty. I just have to ask her in a nicer wayter! When I called Jamin uncle, he said that he sold the estate to someone and that someone doesn¡¯t want to reveal himself! I don''t care! But I like him. He is so nice and generous that he has asked uncle to stay back if he wants to! He even has told him that there will be people around, so uncle won''t feel lonely! How nice of him! With what uncle said, I like him so much! I should warn Manoj and Rahul to not mess around the estate anymore. *** After 2days, it''s Wednesday and finally our joining date. As practiced, we reached our office at 9.30am. There were a whole bunch of freshers. They have made 4 batches for training in different technologies. Unfortunately, Kavi and I were on different teams. But no worries, we can still meet during lunch! There are 20 other people in my batch. A girl came to me and introduced herself. Her name is Ananya! We both sat together. She is a quiet girl. We have nothing inmon to talk about. It''s very hard to keep my mouth shut. I started to eagerly wait for the lunch break. Everyone is new here and they are kind of nervous since it''s our first day. So, we didn¡¯t do any chit chats. Everyone was so keen on the mentor. I felt bored. Kavi is a perfectpany. She will talk less but will let me talk and listen to me even if I bore her to death. I took my phone out and started seeing Yash''s picture. Oh man! How can he be this hot and handsome? I started to surf on histest news. It said that he was caught in a room with the ''S'' name heroine! Wow! Why would he not be with girls? Afterall he is sooooo hot! Girls should be after him! But this guy should control whatever this is! I really hate seeing him with other girls now-adays! OMG! Did I feel jealous now? Yes, I did! Ooh! Just like Kavi said, I''m getting too much into him! But still, that dream! That was so real. Why would he kiss me? Dreams are our surreal thoughts! Does that mean I wish him to kiss me? That''s not a rational thought! Pch! He is doing something to me. That sharp eyes and dimpled cheek is going to kill me for sure. I totally wish I could see him at least once! Kavya is not going to let me do that. I should get behind her eyes and try seeing this goddamn hot and sexy man! Gosh! It''s Friday finally. From Monday, we will be assigned our own systems and will start working. No more boring mentor sessions. We got adjusted to our new work and people around us. I even made friends with my team members. Kavya made 2 friends in 3days which is a record! She is an introvert! We are now travelling to our PG from the office! It''s the weekend and like every MNC, our office lets us free for Saturday and Sunday! Kavya''s team has decided to go for lunch tomorrow! Her team members are all from other cities and states except for 2 guys who are Chennaites! So, they all want to explore Chennai! Kavya was reluctant at first. But then, her new friends made herply. Since I didn¡¯t talk about that aunty, after Sunday, Kavi just let it go! Good for me! I can go tomorrow and see Bruno! I mean, if that aunty still remembers me! I didn¡¯t get any call from her. I have her number, but I don¡¯t want to call her. I didn¡¯t even ask for her name. When she told me her number, I just saved it as ''Bruno Aunty''. Just when we stepped in our room, my phone started ringing. Yay! I don''t want to spend my Saturday sulking in this damn room all alone. Bruno aunty is calling! Chapter 8: 8. Destiny! Chapter 8: 8. Destiny! Yadav''s PoV After that long lecture from my dadst Saturday, I decided to stay home this weekend. It''s kinda boring but I have no other choice! My college mate Rakesh has started a pub. He has invited me! It will be fun, but I just have to think about the consequences. It''s a new pub and it didn¡¯t have so much poprity. So, I can go there and be at peace and enjoy myself! A beer and some music will be fun for a weekend! I totally wish I could go to some ce where no one will recognize me! But for this date, it''s almost impossible in India! I should go to our Australian branch for a few days! When I came in, mom was busy talking on the phone. It should be grandma (mom''s mom). Because it''s just her to whom mom speaks with wide smiles. It''s nice to see her smile. Once in, Bruno and Tiger jumped on me. That brought mom''s attention to me! "My son Yadu hase, Akshu! I will send the car with the same driver tomorrow at 11am! I can''t wait to see you! Take care Akshu! Bye!" Akshu? Who is that? Whoever it is, she brought a smile to my mom''s face! Good on her and good for mom. "Ma! A hot cup of Coffee with hot chilli bajji!" "Sure Yadu! Go refresh ande. I will make everything ready!" "Ok Ma!" I went in to refresh! After a refreshing coffee, I put on my casuals and set out to Rakesh''s pub. Saturday and Sunday strictly at home! Friday night is party night! I took my dad''s car to avoid attention. Akshitha''s PoV "Hi aunty! How are you? How''s Bruno?" "Hi Akshu! We are so good. How are you and your new work?" "It''s all super good aunty!" "The n is still on, right? I''m very excited to introduce you to my husband." "um... sure aunty! I have no other ns for tomorrow! My friend won''t be joining aunty. It''s just me!" "No problem dear! It''s my responsibility to drop you safely." "Thank you, aunty! Did Bruno miss me? I really miss him aunty! My mom is allergic to dogs and she won¡¯t let me have one." "Bruno must be missing you! I told you right, Bruno is my son''s responsibility. Do you have a saree with you, Akshu?" "um... yes aunty! why?" C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. "Wear that for tomorrow whileing here dear! It''s been a very long time since I have seen a young girl in saree! Now everyone wears salwars, jeans, tops and kurtis! I like to see you in our traditional attire!" "Haha sure aunty! But salwar and jeans are veryfortable, aunty! Saree takes long hours to drape and maintenance is also difficult!" "Hahaa! That''s not true! Practice is what you need. If you are used to sarees and half sarees, then no other outfit will feel asfortable as this." "Hahaha! You talk like my mom aunty! She likes sarees too! I will surely wear a saree tomorrow!" "Very good! Akshu, you will eat non-veg right?" "I will eat anything and everything aunty! I''m a huge fan of chicken and crab!" "Hahaa Yadu likes crab too! So, tomorrow, crab for sure!" "Aiyayo! No aunty! I will eat crab only at home." "And why is that?" "Hehe aunty, crab eating is kinda tricky and it will notply with table manners!" "Hahahaha! OMG! Don¡¯t worry, we won¡¯t see you while eating! We will also be busy!" "Hahaha! If you say so aunty!" "I''m imagining Rajkiran (a tamil actor) now! God Akshu! Hahaha!" "Aunty! I won¡¯t eat like him!" "haha ok ok! My son Yadu hase, Akshu! I will send the car with the same driver tomorrow at 11am! I can''t wait to see you! Take care Akshu! Bye!" "Ok aunty! Bye!" Oops! I forgot to ask her name now too! h it''s ok! I shall ask her tomorrow. "Kavi! Come out soon! I have got a message from that shippingpany. Our Scooty is ready to be picked up." I knocked on the restroom door. "It''s already 7pm now. We will pick it up tomorrow." she shouted from inside. "If not today, we can only pick up on Monday! They are closing for maintenance for this weekend, de!" "Pch! Then I will go on Monday. We shall go straight from the office to pick up." "Please, de! We shall use it during weekends to find short routes to our office. We shall go on our bike from Monday! Not a day I can soak in sweat in that damn bus!" "I''m noting!" This girl is totally getting on my nerves. "Get lost!" I shouted and banged the door! I changed my clothes and went out to get a cab. I''m going to get my bike. I called for the cab and got in. I memorized the path while going in the cab. When I reached there, my bike was ready and was parked outside. I checked for any damages. It was perfect with the 2dents I made earlier. I signed the papers and took the bike and started to our PG! Whileing in the cab, it took 40minutes! I can go back in 30minutes with my scooty! I feel alive driving my bike! No more buses! Yay! Yadav''s PoV I called up Chandru to apany me to the pub. Shiva is not good for these things. Of Course he drinks beer. But if a girl approaches him, he is very awkward. And he won¡¯t allow me to enjoy it as well. I picked him up near his home. He switched on the music system and it was ring inside the car. The pub was in a secluded ce. Since it is a new one, everything is really nice and cozy. There were no big crowds which added to its beauty. We had good fun! I like this ce. I even danced with a random girl. She was all over me! But I don¡¯t feel like doing it today. So, we just took off. We came to my car and Chandruined that I spoiled his fun! He was wooing a girl when I asked him toe. I turned in for a short cut and that is when I saw something that intrigued me. It''s 11.30pm! There was a girl in white salwar, sitting on a scooty with her head bent down on the handle. Is she crying? This road is deserted and looks like she can use some help. I drove past her and slowed down. I feel like helping her but also have my own inhibitions. But then I saw her looking up at my car. I opened the window and stopped the car. Her eyes are so beautiful. It glows even at this dark hour. I felt rage inside me. "Hey, stop! please!" she was literally shouting. I stopped the music system. It was Chandru''s side, she came running. I buried my head down while she spoke. She has dried tears all over her beautiful face. I picked my cap and put it on! It covered my face till my eyes. I got down and went near her. I don¡¯t know what has gotten into me. "Hi sir! Thank you for stopping. I don¡¯t know where I ..." "What the hell are you doing here at this hour on a deserted road?" I yelled at her. She took a step back scared and stumbled on a rock. I caught her elbow and made her steady. Did I feel weird touching her? Yes! But I let it pass. "um... I''m new to Chennai. I got lost while going back to my Pg! I tried Google maps, but my phone switched off! Please sir, help me. I''m scared!" She spoke in a breath. "Where is your Pg?" She told me her address. It''s 20minutes away. "How long are you here? Are you mad?" I couldn''t contain my anger. "Pch, don''t shout at me sir. Look at me! I''m already scared. Kavi is going to kill me. Not even a week we have been here, she will tell this to my mom. My mom will ask me toe back. Now please help me get back! If you are going to yell at me like this, I don''t want your help!" She was whining like a baby! She is ridiculous. It''s just a week here for her and she is stranded on a road at midnight. She speaks to me without any fear! A beautiful girl like her needs some extra vignce. This girl will surely attract many problems to her. I asked Chandru to follow us on her bike. "You get in the car! He will bring your bike!" I said, giving no attention to her whines. She immediately jumped in the car. I don¡¯t know, a small smile crept on my lips seeing her. Chapter 9: 9. Pick-Up Gone Wrong! Chapter 9: 9. Pick-Up Gone Wrong! Akshitha''s PoV This damn phone got switched off when I was navigating to my pg! I tried to remember the way. But I got confused. I pushed my luck and drove through all simrly looking roads. I¡¯m lost! I feel a ball of fear gather in my stomach. The time just runs, and I was scared to approach anyone for help. Like Kavi said, everyone who passes me looks like an used. I drove again when I felt eyes on me. It''s 11pm already! I''ve been stranded on a road for 3hours now! Kavi would be freaking out now! She will kill me for sure! I don¡¯t know her number byheart! For the record, I don¡¯t know anyone''s number except for my mom''s. Ofcourse, I cannot call her! She wille and drag me back to Coonoor. I can¡¯t go back without seeing my man! I prayed to all the gods I knew, to get me to safety! The human traffic on the roads reduced eventually and now there is no one around! Many people on the roads scared me! No people on the roads are also scaring me to death. I cried leaning on the front of my bike. That is when a car passed me and slowed down. I decided to take a chance. I ran to the car and started exining when a tall man got down and came near me! "What the hell are you doing here at this hour on a deserted road?" he yelled at me in a dangerously low tone. Should I say his voice is damn sexy?I was taken aback! Why is he yelling at me? Why does his voice sound so sincere about his concern for me? I immediately felt safe and my breathing got steady. When I stumbled, he held my elbow and stopped me from falling. But that little touch gave me goosebumps. I couldn''t see his facepletely. But I can see his beard and luscious lips. I smacked myself in my mind for my inappropriate thinking. I told him what happened, and he yelled at me again saying I''m mad! That''s it, no more fear now, I regained my courage. I''m already freaking inside for what toe from Kavi! I have to make up stories to justify my mistake. Kavi should trust my stories. I have to compromise her to not to tell this to mom. I have so many things going on in my mind right now. I cannot take in his yelling too! "Pch, don''t shout at me sir. Look at me! I''m already scared. Kavi is going to kill me. Not even a week we have been here, she will tell this to my mom. My mom will ask me toe back. Now please help me get back! If you are going to yell at me like this, I don''t want your help!" I started with a high voice but eventually my voice lowered down, and it almost sounded like I''m whining! Whining on a road to a stranger? What am I? He looked like he didn¡¯t pay any attention to my whining. He asked his friend to take my bike. He asked me to get in the car. Never once I thought before jumping in. "Are you insane?" He asked me while still looking on the road. "Please sir, don''t start again!" "Idiot! You don¡¯t know who I am! What will you do, if I just kidnap you? Or rape you? Or kill you? How dare you get in my car without thinking?" I can listen to this voice all day! That''s so manly, metallic and sexy. "Don¡¯t try and scare me sir. I don¡¯t know, but I feel safe with you! You know, it''s a girl''s intuition. We know the intention of a man with just a look. So now if you can stop being my mom and help me cook up a story that is worth believing and justifying myteness!" He just turned his head to my side and concentrated back on the road. He is a man of little words, maybe! I started making up stories in my mind. But nothing came up compromising. "Stop!" I shrieked, holding his hand on the gear. He stopped hitting the break suddenly and we jolted."What now?" he asked, irritated. "There is a policeman in front of our PG! I''m done! I''m so scared! Aiyo! Poachu! My mom would have known that I didn¡¯t listen to Kavi by now! I''m doomed!" "Pch! You made a mistake! Now go and solve it. It''s not that big of an issue. Tell them the truth." "Easy for you to say! I will get down here. If I go with you, then Kavi will kill me!" I got down from the car. "Thank you for your help sir!" I ran to his friend and took my bike and drove to our PG! The hall was crowded with 7 girls and the pg manager. Ady inspector was sitting. Kavi was crying standing near the inspector. "Akshu!" She came running to me and gave me a hard p across my face. "Kavi! please, de! sorry! I went to pick up our bike but lost the way toe back. My phone switched off too. I just now got help. Very sorry de." "So, are you alright? No problem, right?" the inspector asked me. "Yes madam. Sorry for the inconvenience." I said. "Alright then, sign these papers." I signed the papers she showed me. "Let this be thest time you do this, Akshitha. Not once have policee into this house. Your friend Kavya has stopped me from calling your mom. This is your first andst warning." the pg manager warned me. Kavya didn¡¯t utter a word. Her silence is what is terrifying me more. After the police left, everyone dispersed to their respective rooms. Me and Kavi went to our room. Once in, she locked the door and started hitting me hard. "Aahh! Please Kavi! It hurts, de! Sorry de! Very sorry. I promise I won¡¯t go anywhere without letting you know. Please. Sorry!" "You almost gave me a heart attack. Idiot. Are you ok? Are you hurt? How did youe back? No one bothered you right?" "I¡¯m ok! I''m only hurt because you hit me. I came back with the help of a ... um...dy. She showed me the way by driving in front of me. I followed her car. um... No one bothered me. Sorry de!" I said sorry to her in my mind for lying to her. But I cannot tell her that I came with a handsome stranger. She will poison my food tomorrow! We went to bed! Kavi drowned in her sleep. Pity her, she must be worried sick for me. Handsome stranger! Pch! I didn¡¯t even know his name! His beard! Just like Yash! Yadav''s PoV What did I feel when she said she felt safe with me? What is that chills that ran down my spine when she held my hand? After Chandru got in, I drove forward and slowed down in front of her PG! It''s a 2-storey house. I could see the front hall of the house from here. It''s all lit up and crowded. I see a girl give a tight p on herExclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. face. An older woman, maybe this ce''s manager, spoke to her in warning. She was standing there with her head hung low. Thedy police got some signatures and came out. She deserves that hard p! But it stung me in my heart! She is a crazy girl. She is not aware of the dangers that are lurking in this world. I didn¡¯t even ask for her name. She is a beautiful girl. "Yadav! Hey man! Hello! Earth to Yadav!" "Yeah! Chandru, tell me!" "I have been calling you for so long! You are driving in the wrong direction." "Oops! Sorry da!" I turned in the direction of his house. "What''s eating your mind da? Stuck with that girl?" "Come on! It''s not what you think. I was just thinking about my new contract." I stopped him from talking further. But he was right. It''s her face that I''m stuck with. She is doing something to me. I dropped him and went home. It was 12.45 already. I sneakily went to my room. I''m not ready for another advice session. I went to bed and sleep just embraced me. Thefort of my bed, Tiger and Bruno gave me a peaceful sleep. Next day, When I went to a new film pooja, I saw her there, in a sexy yellow dress that covered just her thighs! She came straight to me and hugged me. "Yadav! Thank you so much! I just don¡¯t know what would have happened if you didn¡¯te!" I didn¡¯t know how to react. But she is waking up a sleeping monster in me. I hugged her back! She nuzzled closer and stood on her tippy toes and kissed me on my cheek. I couldn''t control myself any longer. I imed her luscious lips and deepened the kiss. She reciprocated it with the same passion. Though I have fucked many girls, I don¡¯t do Frenchy with any of them. Actually, I don¡¯t give them pleasure. They will pleasure me and in turn I will fuck them long until they are sore. But this kiss is out of the world. I totally don¡¯t know why I kissed her but I don¡¯t want to break this kiss anytime soon. She is doing something to me! Chapter 10: 10. Is She The One? Chapter 10: 10. Is She The One? Akshitha''s PoV Kavi is getting ready to go out for lunch with her team-mates. She keeps looking at me while getting ready. I''m having these bad vibes from her. "Hey niyum kmbu de! Un muliye seri i. Unna thaniya vittutu poga bayama iruku! (Hey, you too get ready! I doubt you are going to do something bad! I''m not leaving you alone!)" "Kavi please, de! I don''t know any of your batch mates. It would be awkward! I promise, I will be a good girl." "Akshu! I will call you every other hour. If you didn¡¯t pick my call, I will call your mom!" "OkOk! I will pick up your call! Now get out! Take the scooty if you want! That way you will be at peace that I''m not roaming out! Forget about me and enjoy your first outing!" "The way you are hurrying to get me out is giving me creeps. Akshu! Promise me that you are not up to something!" "God! I''m not! I will be a good girl!" "I don¡¯t know, but I feel something is wrong! Hey, you are not going to that stranger''s home. Are you?" Aiyayo! Kandu pudichittaley! (Oops! She smelled it right!) This Kavi should be a detective. Samalippom! (will try to soothe her!) "Hehe! No Kavi! That aunty didn''t call me! I have her number, but how will I call her and ask if she is going to invite me!" She threw me a look that clearly says she didn¡¯t buy my reason. She is too numb! "Promise de! I''m nning to go to the nearby temple. That tooter in the evening. I wille back before youe! Now just get ready and go! Stop being my mom!" I''m already annoyed. She is pushing on my knuckles. "Ok ok! Don''t shout Akshu. Bye de!" Happa! Nambitta! (Ooff! Finally!) Once she left the building, I hurried to our room to get ready! I have to drape a saree and I know it will take forever! When Ipleted my look with a red bindi, I got a call. It''s Bruno aunty! "Hi aunty! Good Morning!" "Good Morning, Akshu! Are you ready?" "Yes aunty! Just finished!" "Very good! Driver will be there in another 10 minutes. He started an hour before. You remember him right?" "um... yes aunty!" "You sound like you are not sure! I will whatsapp his picture and our car number now. Come soon dear!" "Sure aunty! Bye!" This aunty is so cool. She is very caring! I prayed to all gods that Kavi should not know about this. She behaves like a hostel warden. Even our college hostel warden lets us go out sometime! I went down to the hall and started waiting for him. I cannot go empty handed to their home. It''s safe to buy fruits. I walked to the shop nearby to get some fruits. There was that Porsche standing in front of our PG. I checked my phone for the car registration number. I went and sat in the car after greeting the driver. Just when I sat back, I saw the interior of the car! Isn''t it the same car? Or do all the Porsche cars have the same interior? Who knows! I don''t even remember what car it was! He was a gentleman! At that unusual hour, he had every chance to go wrong! A beautiful girl by his side (hehe yeah that''s me!), all vulnerable! No one witnessed me getting in his car! He was a total stranger! I didn¡¯t even see his face or know his name! Like he said, he could have done anything to me! Kidnap, rape or murder! But he was a gentleman! That instant calmness I got when he was near me and that sense of safety! He should be a man of high morals with girls! His wife is the luckiest girl on this! I don''t think this driver will talk! I opened my phone to see if I received any message! Nope! Nothing! I started seeing my Yash''s pictures! Hmmmm he is a delicious man! His wife is also the luckiest! Because she will be having him for herself! But he is a yboy! He should mend his ways before marrying. But I cannot drool over him if he gets married! So, it''s better if he stays like this! The stranger had the same style of beard as Yash''s! But they are totally opposite in character with girls! I wish Yash was just like that stranger! Shalini''s PoV I like that girl very much! She spoke with me without any inhibitions. I made almost all non veg items for lunch today! She is a special guest! I can''t stop talking about her. She is so funny and simple! Aravind is very eager to meet her! Aravind and Yadu don''t work on weekends! So, they are both here. I should show Akshu to Yadu! He must know what a girl should be like! Down to earth, helping, simple, funny, homely and beautiful! "Aravind,e here!" I shouted from the kitchen. "What is it, Shalu?" "Taste everything! Tell me how this crab mas is! It''s her favorite!" "Whoa! I think you are getting over-board! Rx Shalu! Everything will taste awesome!" "Aravind, I cannot exin what I feel towards her. She is something special. Her smile and her way of talking is so sweet! She is a very naive girl. See she doesn¡¯t even know who I am! But she speaks to me like we have been friends for years. That innocence is something every human is losing in this busy world! She still has it! I know it¡¯s dangerous and she may get exploited! But still that raw innocence is what attracted me!" "Shalu, I''m sure she will be a very pretty girl in and out! I''m very eager to see her! You don¡¯t allow any of Yadu''s friends who are girls in our home. It''s just Shiva, Rakesh, Chandru and Pranesh thate here. So, receiving a girl to our home is something special!" "Don''t bore her with your business talks. Talk to her like a young man!" "Haha! Ok madam!" "Aravind!" The car came in and we both went to the door to receive her. As promised, she came in a saree! A beautiful red saree! She looked stunning! I looked at Aravind and he was standing there without blinking his eyes! "Akshu! Wee home dear! He is my husband!" "Hi aunty! Hello sir! How are you?" "Come in dear! I''m so good! Thank you! You can call me uncle, sweetheart!" Aravind said. "A you are so nice to me uncle! Thank you!" We all sat on the couch in our family room. She made herselffortable. "You look beautiful in saree dear!" Iplimented her. "Thank you, aunty! You know it took almost an hour to drape it!" "Haha as I said, practice! That¡¯s the key!" "Haha! sure aunty!" Our maid brought juice! N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. "Thank you!" She politely thanked our maid and took the juice. "Your home is so big and beautiful aunty! What is this ce?" "Thanks, dear! This is ECR!" "Ohhhh!" "What is your father doing Akshitha?" Aravind asked. "Um... My dad is no more, uncle. He passed away during my 11th grade in an ident. It''s just me and my mom!" "I''m so sorry Akshu! I can call you that right?" "Um...sure uncle! And don¡¯t be sorry! I know you tried to make conversation with me!" she smiled lovingly at him. "So, what''s your mom doing?""Haha wait a minute uncle!" She said and stood up. She started speaking like giving a speech on a stage. "My name is Akshitha! My mother''s name is Sumathi. We live in Coonoor! We do farming. We own a littlend and a home there. We nt Strawberries and other hilly veggies! I''m aputer science engineer! I work as a software developer in Xxx MNC! Technically didn¡¯t start working! Just attending training. I''mpletely new to Chennai! I like dogs! I like dancing! I like cooking! Mmmm, That''s all!" She sat down after a bow! She is a drama queen. Iughed at her antics and Aravind waspletely sitting in shock! She waved her hands on his face. "Uncle! Earth to uncle! Earth to uncle!" "Ah yes sweetheart! Haha you are amazing! So how do you like Chennai!?" "Questions again? Chennai is like a bakery uncle!" "Bakery? You mean you get food everywhere?" "Nuh nah! It bakes me! How are you guys living here? It''s very hot here, uncle." We startedughing again. A home with a girl child is truly a blessed home! "Aunty! Can I ask you something?" She said with a guilt on her face! That doesn''t suit her. "Just ask me dear! You are free to ask anything!" "What is your name aunty?" "WHAT? YOU DON''T KNOW HER NAME?" Aravind just freaked out! "Um...she didn''t tell me her name, uncle. How will I know? I saved her number as ''Bruno Aunty'' on my phone!" Aravindughed like he had heard the funniest jokes ever. He stoppedughing when I red at him. "Sorry aunty!" "Oh don¡¯t be dear! My name is Shalu! This is Aravind! I''m sorry I didn¡¯t introduce myself properly." "No aunty! It''s ok!"She took her phone and changed my name in her contacts. "Aunty, where is Bruno!?" "He should be in my son''s room dear. They wille during lunch! Nowe I will show you around!" "What about Uncle?" "He will watch TV, or some business magazines will keep him busy!" "Aww poor uncle! We shall see the houseter aunty! I like the way uncleughs at every little thing." She sat backfortably. "Haha truly sweetheart, it''s been ages since Iughed like this! Our son has grown up. So, we don¡¯t have anything tough at! I mean nothing to make usugh like you did now!" "Aww you have aunty with you! Don¡¯t talk like as in a sad movie climax, uncle ! Uncle you are very rich, and you live here in ECR right?" "Yes sweety!" "Are you friends with everyone here?" "Mmmm everyone is just an acquaintance! Why do you ask sweety?" "How old is your son, uncle?" "27!" "Oh! Then he must have friends here, right?" I am very curious why she asks so many questions. I can''t wait for suspense. "What is this all about Akshu! Just ask straight!" I said to her. "um...! Aunty, are you guys friends with Yadav Rishid''s parents? Or is your son friends with him?" She asked us. Chapter 11: 11. I like Him! Chapter 11: 11. I like Him! Yadav''s PoV N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. It was a damn dream? Hell! It was so real. Every detail on her is urate. How the hell did her image be so real in my dream in the little time I was with her, in the dark? I was drunk, I covered my face, with a little of what I saw in my covered eyes, I remember every detail on her? Even that sexy mole on her jaw? Impossible! The worst of all is that I kissed her. Damn! French kiss!? Me? To a girl? God! It was 4am! I lost my sleep! Bruno got up with my jolt. I went to the balcony to get some fresh air! Bruno came along with me. I petted him and sat on the chair! I closed my eyes enjoying the cool breeze. The sound of waves crashing the shore is heaven. There she is walking along the waves in a ck cold-shoulders and denim jean shorts. She is damn hot. She looks at me with a beautiful smile. She reaches her hand to me and I just grab her and pull her to me. I woke up again, Damn! Hell with these meaningless dreams. I really hate that face of hers. She ruined my sleep. Idiot! I went in and tried to sleep on my bed again. I got up veryte in the morning. My head started pounding due to the intermittent sleep I had. Also because of the beer. I went down to get some lemonade. That will help with this damn hangover. When I went down, I saw her sitting on the couch with my mom and dad. She was now in a red saree. She is so sexy and beautiful. I am seeing her in my home? Hell with my imaginations! I went back to my room and called the kitchen through the inte and asked for a lemonade to be served in my room! I finished my morning routine and went to the gym. After a little workout, I took bath and sat on the bed again! AKSHU! Yes! The girl with mom and dad right now should be the one who helped mom with Bruno! Hell! I see that lunatic everywhere. It''s getting too much. My dreams were annoying but now I imagined this Akshu girl to be that beautiful girl from yesterday. Nevertheless, I hate both of them. This girl sitting down the stairs hase to divide Bruno''s love for me. But she is better aspared to the lunatic girl I saw yesterday. She messed with my mind. Akshu, Whatever her full name is, she helped mom. She brought a smile to her face. So, I think I can live with it. I hate this girl less than that beautiful idiot. Bruno is sitting near the door of my room ready to go out. Since my hate for her subsided, I decided to let Bruno go and meet her. I mean, she won¡¯t be here after today. So a little time with her won''t do any harm to Bruno. I let him out and also Tiger! I waited for a shriek or a scream from downstairs. Tiger is more fierce to strangers than Bruno. Akshitha''s PoV I like this uncle too. These people are filthy rich. This home is nothing less than a pce. The interior is world ss. Everything here in this home is at the higher end. But this couple looks like they don''t live here. I mean, they are very simple and talks to me like I''m one among them. They both don¡¯t show off their wealth. They just broke that stereotype of wealthy people in my mind. I honestly didn¡¯t think this aunty was this rich! I mean no one can think because she is such a simple woman. This uncle is very friendly and attractive. He has something on his face that resembles someone close to me. But I just couldn¡¯t put my finger right on it. When aunty said this is ECR, I really got excited. If they know Yash, I can request them to take me to him. I just wish to take a picture with him and let him know I totally like him. Nothing more! When I asked them if they know Yash or at least his parents, they just looked at each other. Did they think bad of me? I shouldn''t have asked this straight away. I smacked myself in my mind. "um... don''t get me wrong aunty. I like him very much." I called them closer to me. "I have a huge crush on him." I told them. "You don''t believe me? See my phone!" I showed them my gallery. It was full of his pictures. "Uncle please! If you know him or his parents, will you please arrange for a meeting? I need a picture with him!"I said everything in a go. They still look at eachother. But they have smiles on their faces now. Uff, They didn''t get me wrong. "Oh dear! We can surely arrange for a meeting. You can have as many pictures with him as you like. He is our.." aunty was interrupted by uncle. "Very good friend. He is a friend to our son, too." uncle said. They again looked at each other. Something doesn¡¯t sit well with this situation. But I let it pass. "Oh really!? Thank you, aunty. Thank you, uncle. I never expected that my wish woulde true this soon. You know what aunty, I actually epted to work in Chennai because I knew he was here!" I told them. That is when Bruno came running to me. He just came near me and nuzzled his nose closer to me. I patted him lovingly. I heard a growl from behind me. I jerked on the sound. When I turned my head to see, I saw an exact copy of Bruno! "Tiger! shush! That''s our guest!" Aunty shushed him. I stood up and went towards Tiger. He looks fierce. His ears erect, he is ready to pounce. I stood 3 feet before him and kneeled down. Bruno came and stood by my side. "Hi Tiger! Come on! Come here!" I spoke to him looking him in the eye. I truly believe I have some connection with dogs. I have rescued many puppies and dogs in Coonoor. When I took them to a government shelter, I befriended many dogs there. They all love me at once. Their wagging tail and dropped floppy ears are a sign that they want me to pet them. Tiger just stood there looking at me. He is not growling anymore. But his ears are high and erect. He is not convinced. He came to me and I stayed put in my ce. He started sniffing me. "Hi Tiger!" I said again. His ears flopped. I caressed his well-maintained fur. He nuzzled closer to me and started wagging his tail. Yay! I won him and his trust. "You sure have some spells on dogs, Akshu!" Uncle said. "Haha thanks uncle. I always think that too. Tiger and Bruno are magnificent. I''m very proud of you. You guys chose our native breed to grow instead of foreign dogs. I love every dog, but I strongly think we should never change their geography. They are adapted to their habitat. We have no rights to force them out of there. We have many fierce and strong breeds in our homnd. I appreciate that you have chosen this breed!" "Wow! So, you are an animal activist? And all this credit goes to our son. He is the one raising them." uncle said. "Haha I''m not an animal activist uncle. I hate cats! I have hated them ever since I''m 3 or 4yrs old. And I totally like your son for this." I showed Tiger and Bruno! "Oh really! What do you know about my son that you tell you like him?" Aunty asked me. "um... a tricky question. But I can answer! I never knew your name when I agreed toe here. I still did because I liked you, aunty. um.... for example, I was stuck in a dangerous situation yesterday. A stranger helped me. I don¡¯t know anything about him, but I like him. A wealthy man bought my uncle''s estate. But he was generous enough to ask my uncle to stay back if he wanted to! I like that man for that. mmmmm let''s take Yadav Rishid. I started following him for his looks. But then, I like him for who he is. He is talented, punctual and established himself at a very young age. He helps many students. He lives his life aunty. Though he has that yboy tag, he doesn''t care for it. He lives his life for himself. I like him for that! Many of us just pretend to look good in other¡¯s eyes. It takes so much courage to do what we like without bothering about the image this society has to paint on us. I like Yash for that courage. Simrly, I like your son for choosing our native breeds to grow. My point is, we don''t need to knowpletely about a person to like or dislike!" When I finished aunty hugged me and uncle patted my head lovingly! Chapter 12: 12. Hide and Seek! Chapter 12: 12. Hide and Seek! Aravind''s PoV After her long reply, she went on ying with Bruno and Tiger. I stopped Shalu from revealing that we are Yadu''s parents. I did that because I wanted to know her real intentions. This girl looks innocent. If she is toe here often and be friends with Shalu, then it is better she doesn¡¯t know that we are his parents. It''s for her own good. She will be out of the media until she doesn¡¯t meet up with him. If she takes a picture with him and startsing here, this media will spoil her image! I don''t want that to happen to this innocent girl. When Shalu told us about Akshu, Yadu reacted like he didn¡¯t like her. It''s good if it stays that way. He won¡¯t misbehave with girls who are not his type. But still I feel responsible for this girl. I really like her. What she said was true. We don''t need to know anything about a person and still like them. "Why did you stop me from telling the truth!?" Shalu asked me. "It''s not necessary, Shalu. If you want her toe here often, we should not reveal the truth." N?velDrama.Org content. "Pch! But she will know the truth during lunch. Yadu is at home. He didn''t go out today!" "Tell him to stay in his room until she leaves." "Aravind! Do you really think he will stay in a room? whole day? On a Saturday?" "You cannot spoil the girl''s reputation, Shalu. Our house is the only ce where the reporters don¡¯t come." "Aravind, Do you like her? I totally love her. I would be happy if she stays with me." "Stay with you? Do you mean?" "Yes, Shall we ask her mom''s contact and talk to her? If shees home as my daughter-inw then my son will reform and be a good husband. I will also be happy." "Whoa, Slow down, Shalu. It''s not just about your wish." "Why not? She likes Yadu too." "She admires him. That is different from liking." "Pch Aravind!" "Stop whining, Just be happy with what you got. You can be friends with her. Let''s see what happens!" "Mmmm" Shalu''s excitement died away. I hate to pop her balloon. But she can¡¯t just escte things like this. I would like it too if Akshu is toe as our daughter-inw. We should take it slow! Yadav''s PoV It''s been 15minutes already since Tiger went down. I didn''t hear anymotion down-stairs. I am now curious to know what happened. I went down the stairs and stood halfway when I saw the girl petting Tiger. He is wagging his tail and letting her touch him. Her back facing me she was talking to my dad. I see her everywhere already and now I hear her? I''m turning into an obsessed man. That mysterious girl is ying with my senses. I turned to go to my room again. I stood on my tracks when I heard her say my name. "mmmmm let''s take Yadav Rishid! I started following him for his looks. But then, I like him for who he is. He is talented, punctual and established himself at a very young age. He helps many students. He lives his life, aunty. Though he has that yboy tag, he doesn''t care for it. He lives his life for himself. I like him for that! Many of us just pretend to look good in other¡¯s eyes. It takes so much courage to do what we like without bothering about the image this society has to paint on us. I like Yash for that courage! Simrly, I like your son for choosing our native breeds to grow. My point is, we don''t need to know completely about a person to like or dislike." YASH! Did she call me that? Interesting! I have never analyzed myself. I never really bothered about my image. That''s true. I like what I do. That''s true! Do I really like that yboy tag? I don''t care. I don''t know if I like it or not. Is it time to self-evaluate my character? She likes me? She likes me for who I am!? She appreciates my courage to do what I like? Do I like all the girls I have slept with? No! Infact, I don¡¯t like or dislike them. They are just for pleasures! She likes me for growing Bruno and Tiger? She has blind courage I should say. She gets in my home and talks about me to my parents and tells them that she likes me! Wow! I''m disturbed! I went back to my room and got ready to go out. I should check if I see that mysterious girl out of this house too! If that''s really happening, then I should find her and fuck her to get her out of my head. No one has that authority to y with my mind. I can''t be this distracted, that too, after all for a girl. When I came down, I heardughing sounds from dining. Even dad isughing. I have never seen him laugh like this talking to someone except for times when he watches ''Goundamani''edy. This girl is magic! I wish she would make them happy like this more often. I know, for that to happen, I have to stay clear of her way. And I will! I''m not going to meet her anytime. I will make sure of my absence in her presence. About Bruno and Tiger, I hate the fact they like her too. I feel something about her that is not good. I don¡¯t really have to feel that way. But still my subconscious tells me that she is recing me. I cannot feel jealous of her with just one visit. But she makes me feel that way. I''m feeling funny inside my head. Half of me says she is good because she said she likes me. Half of me says she is evil that hase to divide the love my mom, dad, Bruno and Tiger have for me. That voice of hers. It irritates me to the core. Why do I hear that mysterious girl when Akshu talks? My mind is all fucked up! How the hell do I remember her voice perfectly? I hate this girl! I hate that mysterious girl! I hate girls! I ran out to my car and sped off to Shiva''s home. It has always been my refuge. His mom, nothing less than my mom, always asks me to get married. She is looking for a bride for Shiva too. She always looks for matching horoscopes in matrimony for him. Who in this busy world will look for all these for a marriage!? Chapter 13: 13. Tables Turned Chapter 13: 13. Tables Turned Akshitha''s PoV After a hefty lunch, I asked aunty to drop me in my PG. She wanted me to stay for dinner. God, if Kavi comes before I go then I''m done for good. I yed a little more with Bruno and Tiger and bid goodbyes to aunty and uncle. I couldn''t see his son today. He didn''t join us for lunch. I thought of requesting him to make an appointment with Yash. Pch, It''s ok. If I''m destined to meet him, then I will meet him anyway. I don''t need any help. When I went in the room, I hurriedly took off my saree and put it all back in the suitcase. Hehe, Kavi is a detective, remember!? We got used to our work. My team members Nithya and Priya have be very close to me. Pramod and Vikram also joined our group. We learnt our tech and also had fun. Most of the time, we had our chat window open. Kavi is assigned to a US project. I don''t know what she has that I don''t have? Our batch is still in training. We work on local projects. We fix errors. Basically maintenance. We have lots of free time. But we will pretend to work. I learnt many shortcuts from our office to our PG. We took turns in driving. But since Kavi is working on a US project, her timing has changed. She stayed back to attend meetings. Our regr schedule copsed. I went and came early. Kavi went and camete. So, I gave my bike to Kavi. I started using an office cab. Shalu aunty is in constant touch with me. She speaks to me every other day. She visited me in our pg. I introduced her to Kavi. Kavi is also pleased with her. So, no more lies to Kavi. Shalu aunty even took us to shopping malls. She showed us around some temples and beaches. She said she feels alive when she is with us. I''m happy that we could make someone happy with just our presence. She invited us to her home many times, but we dodged saying some excuses. I don''t want to take advantage of her. We meet at somemon ces. That is enough. She will bring Bruno or Tiger alternatively if we go to ces like the beach. I only miss uncle. N?velDrama.Org content. He will talk to me if he is present when aunty talks to me. I cannot ask him to apany aunty you see, he is a rich businessman! My mom and Kavi''s mom also know Shalu aunty now. They have talked through the phone. Our moms even asked her to keep an eye on us. Everything is very usual and regr. I had my evening coffee and biscuits with Kriya, my pg mate. Since I have literally nopany during weekday evenings, I was forced to make friends with her. She doesn¡¯t speak Tamil. Our awkward conversation in English always cracks me intoughs when I''m alone! "Kriya, Shall we go for a walk in the park nearby?" I asked her. "Sure Akshitha, Wait, let me go change ande." I went to change myself in afy dress. It''s 7.30 in the evening and this Chennai is still hot like noon. The park near our PG is not a well-maintained park. So, no kids will be there. Many uncles and aunties use it as a walking area. It''s boring too. But far better aspared to staying here. "Akshitha, open up. I''m ready." "Yeah yeah! Me too!" I opened up the door and we went out and set to the park. "Akshitha, we have toe back by 8 o''clock. I will go to bed by 9pm you know right?" she said even before we stepped out. "Ha, that''s not true. You eat at 8pm. The hotter the better. I know the food in our pg sucks!" "You could at least pretend to not know my actual reason, you know." "Hahaha, Sorry, Kriya. Next time I will keep this in mind." We reached the park. "It''s already 7.30pm, Kriya. You go by 8. I will spend some time here and wille a littleter. Anyways I have to be alone until 11." "Are you sure? You will be ok staying alone here?" "Oh yeah, Kriya. What¡¯s the trouble! Our pg is 5minutes away and there are so many uncles and aunties here. I will be alright." "Ok then! Shall we walk?" "Mmm ok. But we shall walk in the opposite direction. This point marks one round. Let''s see who comes here first. No running. Just walking, Ok? I will call you on your phone. We will talk and walk. That way I will know if you are walking or running! What do you say?" I asked her. "Haha ok!" With that we parted in the opposite direction. I called her and we started talking while walking. I saw a group of men near a tree. Something about them is not right. They look like they are hiding. But no one seems to bother them. I continued walking. "Yay, Akshitha, see! I made it here first. I win! I win!" Kriya was jumping like a kid. She is a silly girl. "Haha ok ok. I got distracted so you won. Let''s do another round!" "Ah ha, No, Akshitha. See, it''s time for me to eat. Bye, We will race tomorrow." "Ok, see you, Good night." She left after a hug. I walked two more rounds and sat on the cement bench. I need water. Shit, I didn¡¯t bring a water bottle. The breeze was getting better as time passed. The hot air is now bing chill. So, I decided to enjoy it for some more time. I saw a Te car stop in front of the park. A tall man in a blue cap got down and came in. Hmmmm peoplee in a Te for a walk in the park! I thought to myself. He walked past me and sat down on a bench far from me, his back facing me. But I could still see him. A everyone nowadays is a copy-cat. This tall man also has a beard just like Yash. My rescuer Mr.Gentleman, on that night, had a beard just like Yash. Hey, Wait a minute! Mr.Gentleman also had a blue cap on that day. Is that him? Will he remember me? Pch, I don¡¯t know his name. I have not seen his face either. How will I check if it''s him? He looks like he is waiting for someone. I felt weird checking on a man in a park. So, I diverted my gaze. That is when I noticed, many left the park. I could only see 3 or 4 people in the whole park. I should leave too. I feel something is not right in this situation. I don''t want to get in trouble. When I stood up, I saw two men sneaking behind that blue cap man with something in his hand. It looked like a bottle. If I''m not wrong, these two men are from that group behind that tree. I don¡¯t really know what I should do now. I stood on my tippy toes to see if that group of men were still there. But no one was there now. So, it''s just two men. If that blue cap is warned at the right time, he can handle them, I think. I mean, look at him! He is all tall and built! They are still stalling behind. I started walking in their way sneakily. The one that had the bottle, opened it and a drop of liquidnded on his finger. It just bubbled up! OMG! ACID? Are they going to attack him with acid? The other man ps his hand on his mouth to stop him from shouting. I was just behind them on the pathway. They were hiding behind a tree. "Hey! Hey blue cap!" I shouted to get his attention. But soon the one without acid in his hands jumped straight at me and tried closing my mouth. I struggled and this brought the Blue caps attention to me. He came running and punched that man on his face. The other one came with the acid. "Hey, that''s acid!" I shouted to warn him. That man threw the bottle away and picked up the man who is now bleeding in the mouth and ran away. I rxed and looked at the blue cap to see if he was ok. "Ufff! Are you..." I was cut off by him. "Are you insane? What the hell are you doing here at this hour? Why do you always attract danger to you? Idiot. Can''t you stay back in your pg? What would have happened if I''m not here to rescue you? Do you think rescuing you is my only job?" He came dangerously near me and yelled at me once again in a dangerously low tone which I find sexy even in this situation. So, it''s him! Mr.Gentleman! Wait a minute, he is yelling at me for saving him? He thinks he saved me? Dumbhead! Chapter 14: 14. Her Concern Chapter 14: 14. Her Concern Yadav''s PoV Rithanya, my legal advisor, called me at noon when I was in my office. "Yadav, This is Rithanya. Are you free now? I have something important to tell you." She sounded very anxious. I felt it was something important. "Yeah Rithanya. Tell me." I made time for her. "Yadav, the orphanage we took over recently is very bad in state. I suspect some illegal activities are going on there. The medical camps and the photo shoot for grown up girls are very disturbing. The father who is taking care of the orphanage is quite stubborn in cooperating with us. Since you have adopted that orphanage now, the media is all over that ce. If anyone finds anything before us, then your reputation will be a question mark." "Thenin about the father to the police, Rithanya. What''s stopping you?" I have many other things to tend to than worrying about this. "No Yadav, I told you to look deep before adopting this orphanage. Now, you will be held responsible. You know about the media. They will sh your name every second." "Pch! What are you suggesting?" I am getting impatient with her. "Handle it unofficially. I suspect they are doing something to the girls there. Once we get a hold of what''s going on, we shall go to the police openly. That way, it will be seen like you stopped something bad." "Rithanya, I don¡¯t do this for heroic images. You know that." "Listen to me Yadav, Aravind sir is very much worried for your reputation in public. We don¡¯t want another mark." she said, I just want to kill every damn reporter that clings behind me. "Alright, I will look into it." "The sooner the better. Bye, Yadav." It''s an extra headache in my already busy schedule. I don¡¯t know why people are so desperate to make money in the wrong ways. If what Rithanya says is true, then it must involve some mafia. The safety of girls is bing a very big issue in our country. Child trafficking is illegal and cruel.. I called up my friend in the police department. Ashok! ASP in the crime branch. I told him an abstract of what Rithanya told me. He said he will look into it straight-away. My day went as usual. When I was about to go home, I got a call from an unknown number. "Hello, who is this?" "Mr.Yadav, I have proof that you are involved in organ trafficking. I will expose you to the media if you don¡¯tply with what I say now." I heard a man on the other end of the phone. "Listen, I''m not someone from whom you can im ransom from. Do whatever you can." I was about to cut the call. "I know where you have your organ repository. I know the orphanage you get kids from. I even know who is next to lose life. You have very less time toply with me, Yadav." I listened to him. It was a coincidence that Rithanya talked about it today and I got a call from a stranger about it. "Then go tell the police. Why waste time?" I held up my end indicating to him that I am not afraid of his threats. "Yadav, you can stop this. I have many proofs. I''m not threatening you. I will give you all the data I have collected so far. My life is also in danger. Please." Once mentioning the word ¡®police¡¯, his tone completely changed from threatening to pleasing. I don''t trust this man. But if he has a little of what he says, then it''s worth giving it a shot. "Alright! What do you want?" I asked him. "I want to meet you in person. Alone, Tonight." looked like he has regained his modtion or even better. "Where?" He told me toe to a park at 8.30. I agreed. N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. As said, I went there exactly at 8.30 and waited for that man. The park was almost deserted with just 2 or 3 people scattered here and there. I hate waiting. When my patience flew away, I decided to go. That is when I heard some muffled screams. I saw a man cupping a girl''s mouth and she was calling for help. I immediately went to her rescue. As I neared her, I saw those twinkling eyes! WHAT? AGAIN? I thought I stopped seeing her everywhere weeks ago. I punched that rogue on his face and he stumbled back and fell. That''s her! I felt rage burning inside me once again. She is so careless. "Hey, that''s acid! " she shouted at me when another rogue came behind me. I turned in a swift-motion but that man threw the bottle away and helped the other guy and sped away from the scene. She left a long sigh of relief and was about to ask me something. But my anger took over me. "Are you insane? What the hell are you doing here at this hour? Why do you always attract danger to yourself? Idiot. Can''t you stay back in your pg? What would have happened if I''m not here to rescue you? Do you think rescuing you is my only job?" I started shouting at her. She was taken aback with my sudden outburst. Before she could gather herself to talk, people who witnessed the scene came to us. "Girls these days are very careless. Are you ok ma? Who is he? Is he stalking you?" "She must have said no to his love. That is why he came with acid." "We should call the police. Where is your home, ma?" "I saw her walking all alone here. She must be waiting for him. Poor girl is still in shock. I appreciate you Mister. You helped her at the right time." Everyone started talking about their assumptions on the situation. But she just looks at everyone like they are lunatics. "Can you talk? Aiyo pavam (oh pity) she is dumb I think." an aunty said. That triggered her. I almost laughed at that remark but restrained myself. "I can talk. I''m not dumb. Wow, You all talk like you have been with me all my life. All your assumptions were very true. I don¡¯t want any of your help. This man here rescued me, right? He will take care of me. Now leave us alone." She almost shrieked. Everyone went away cursing her and scolding her. She took my hand and dragged me out to the entrance of the park. She peeped on either side and pulled me down to see her. I really like her being this close to me. "Come, We should go to the police station." She told me. "What? Now? Are you out of your mind? Come now, I will walk you safely to your pg. You can go to the police station with your friend in the morning andin on your road-side Romeo! For god''s sake be more careful and responsible." I told her. She left my hand and stood on her tracks with her hands on her hips. "Yov! Loosa ya ni? Un m tha acid ootha vanthanga. En m i. (Hey! Are you mad? The attack was nned on you. Not on me.) For your kind information, I saved you this time!" She said. I was takenpletely by surprise. I didn¡¯t expect this. No one has ever talked to me like this. She is outrageous. But what she said was a serious thing. I want to get her to safety before I do something about it. I took her to my car. "Get in. I will drop you in your pg." I told her. "Pch, My life is not at stake. Yours is. I can go by myself to my pg. You go to the police station." She insisted. "Shut up and get in." I growled at her. I''m not used to ordering on what I should do! I''m getting impatient with her. With that she jumped in the car. I drove to the front of her pg. She got down and looked at me through the window. "You will go home safe right?" she asked me. She is something. I couldn''t stop the smile that erupted because of her question. "You go in and don''t roam around all alone at these unusual hours anymore." I told her. I sounded so soft which I didn¡¯t intend to. "Pch ok ok! Don''t always talk like you are my mom. um...can you take off your cap?I think we are more than strangers now. Why are you hiding away?" she asked me. But then she turned her gaze away for a second and she got all tense. "Huh, Go go go. Be safe! Go home. Comint on this incident to the police. Now go." She urged me to go. I didn¡¯t understand. But still I moved the car and halted it a little away from her pg. I saw her through my rear-view mirror. Her friend came in with that same scooty. I smiled at her reactions. She is definitely afraid of her friend and a drama queen! Chapter 15: 15. The Awkward Invite Chapter 15: 15. The Awkward Invite Kavya''s PoV I feel something is wrong with Akshu. From the moment I came back to now, she is talking about all irrelevant things to me. She will do this only when she tries to cover up her mess. I pulled her nky down. "Hey get up." I called her. "I''m sleepy, Kavi. I''m not like you, you will sleep untilte in the morning. But I can¡¯t sleep. Let me sleep, Kavi" "What wrong did you do?" "Me? Wrong? No Kavi!" "Cut the crap. I know you did something. What did you do?" "Kavi." She sat up on her bed. That look on her face gives it all away. "Spill it!" I told her authoritatively. She told me everything. She has escaped an acid attack. OMG, But I don¡¯t find anything wrong in what she did. She has saved a man. Good for him. But she is not supposed to be there at that time. That is why she is scared of letting me know. "Akshu, What you did was right. Now let it pass. But you are not stepping out of pg alone anymore." I warned her. She left a loud sigh and hugged me. "Thank you Kavi. I was so scared to tell you. I thought you would also yell at me." She said. "What do you mean you will ALSO? Who else yelled at you?" "That man I saved. He yelled at me for being there alone at that time." I almostughed at how she put her face. I wanted to tell her something too. I cannot hide it from her. "Akshu!" "Enna de ilukura? What did you do now? Huh? Spill it?" she just jumped on me. Yeah, she gets chances like this very rarely to question me. She uses it until she feels satisfied. She makes the situation all lighter with her silly behavior. "Pch, My team manager Vishwa has invited me to his birthday party." "Thu! Ivlothana? (huh! just this?) If he had invited you then grab a gift and go attend." She said it just like that. "Akshu!" "Pch! Innu enna de? (what else?)" "His party is in a Pub." I said it. "WHAT?" Her eyes grew big. "Hmmm yes!" "So, you are not going. Why bring up this topic now? You told him no right?" She asked me. "Hmmm Mmhum!" "Hey, say yes or no. Don¡¯t roll your head in all directions." she said. "I said yes." "WHAT?" she shrieked. "Shhh! Don¡¯t shout. I said ok. um... everyone in our team is going. We also wanted to see a Pub, right? You tooe, Akshu. It will be safe going with our friends, right?" "Whoa whoa, First, you can go. You are invited. I''m not going. Second, I''m really happy that you have decided to explore. But no drinks ok? And third they are your friends, not mine! When is the party?" She spoke with a strict tone. "This Saturday. Please, Akshu, you tooe!" "No, Kavi. It won¡¯t be nice. Do you like Vishwa?" She asked. "Akshu!" "Don¡¯t die out of shock. Why did you agree then? It''s so not you.¡± She looks at me suspiciously. If I can read her, then she can read me too. "um..Nothing like you think. All my teammates said yes. So, I said yes too!" "Oh, is it? If you say, then I''m ok too." We both called it a night then. I know she is not fully satisfied with my answer. But still she let it pass only to catch me red-handed. I''m not sure myself about what I feel towards Vishwa. I must clear it before I tell it to her. Besides, it''s just been a month since we have known each other. I should give it time! Akshitha''s PoV I have seen Vishwa. He must be at least 4 to 5 years older than us. He is a handsome man, I should say. I know Kavya is not telling me the full story. It would be me that asks to explore. She is usually very shy and an introvert. But the tables have changed here. I should ask Nithya and Pramod to investigate Vishwa. I''m not letting my friend fall for a man who is not worth it. I dozed off to sleep thinking about what I should do about her and about that mysterious man. His metallic voice and his concern for me, is very soothing to my heart. I don''t know why I find my heart fluttering at an unknown man''s concern, but I do! It''s really heart-warming. The next day, my office work was the usual and boring. Me, Nithya and Priya were chatting at our break time when Vishwa came to me. "Hi Akshitha, Can I talk to you for a minute?" "Um... sure! Tell me Vishwa." I went to a different table with him. "I''m hosting a party for my birthday this Saturday at this pub. I would like to invite you ,Akshitha!" he said. E! Awkward! This must be Kavya''s work. God, What am I supposed to tell him now? "um... Vishwa, I understand you do this for Kavya. She wille to your party. I will make sure of that. Sorry she made you do this." "Oh no, Akshitha. Don''t just assume. I know you guys are friends from college and you stay together. I would be happy if you attend my party. It''s not because of her that I invited you. I really like your presence. " "Oh! Um... If you insist. Ok Vishwa, I wille with Kavya." I told him. He smiled at me with a nod and went off. He talks like a nice gentleman. But we cannot just judge him on our first encounter, right? During lunch, Kavya came to the food court with Vishwa. They were happily talking. The glow in her eyes tells me what she has in her heart. She bid a bye to him and joined us at our table. "Kavi, Did you ask him to invite me? Have you lost your mind? It was so awkward and embarrassing. " I yelled at her. "No, Akshu. I .... I just told him that I cannot attend his party." "Why? you said you will go. What happened to you all of a sudden?" "um..I thought you woulde too. I''m scared to go alone. You said no. So, I said no to him." N?velDrama.Org content. "Idiot. Now he has invited me out ofpulsion. This is the first andst time you are doing this Kavi." She is totally losing it. She can''t do this to me. It''s totally disrespecting my dignity. But I also know that she needs my support in exploring out of her boundaries. So, I''m going to help her out this one time. Besides, it''s also my dream to go to a pub and dance like tomorrow neveres. I can persuade her to try a little champagne! A little sparkling wine is no harm you see! Chapter 16: 16. Judgement? Chapter 16: 16. Judgement? Shalini''s PoV I want to go shopping to buy something for all the kids in the orphanage that Yadav adopted recently. Disha, Yadav''s secretary wille home today with the details of how many kids, their age and gender. I have taken it as a habit to get something for everyone whenever Yadav adopts an orphanage or an old age home. I''m very proud of my son. Though we had money, Aravind or I never thought of adopting. We have helped people. But never took responsibility. That requires hugemitment. But Yadu took that responsibility right from the start of his career. It''s always a tiring job to select things for the kids. It''s usually Disha that apanies me on this shopping trip. She sure is helpful. But this time I wanted to take Akshu. Ever since she visited us, we have been totally addicted to her. She speaks to me and Aravind every other day. Aravind, if not avable, will ask me every detail on what we talked about! But even after inviting her to our home so many times, she makes excuses. I don''t know why! It''s not that I didn''t see her. We meet atmon ces like temples and beaches and parks and malls. I feel like my age is cut into half when I''m with her. I like her friend Kavya also. But she is an introvert. A girl of little words. I called up Akshu to know their n for tomorrow. Since it''s Saturday tomorrow, they may have some ns of their own. "Hello aunty! How are you, uncle, Bruno and Tiger? " "We are all good, Akshu. You left my son." "Haha, I never met him. It''s ok. How is your son?" "Haha he is so good too. Do you have any ns for tomorrow?" "Um...Yes aunty. Tomorrow evening is Kavya''s manager''s birthday party. Guess where, We are going to a pub aunty!" she squealed! "Wow! So excited to get spoiled! Aren¡¯t you?" I''m quite disappointed with her excitement. "um...Are you angry with me aunty? You sound sad!" "No Akshu!" "Pch, Don''t lie aunty! Me and Kavya always wanted to see a pub. We just wanted to explore aunty. I promise you, Kavya will never let me get spoiled. ''Kvum katru Mara!''". she said. I felt like I over reacted. She is a young girl and new to Chennai. She is excited to experience a new side. She is a girl brought up with good moral values. I''m sure she will know what to do and when to stop. "Sorry, Akshu .So, the party is in the evening, right? What are you girls doing in the morning?" "No ns aunty. We just have to go shopping for some dresses. We don¡¯t have any outfit that suits the ce." "Ok, I''m nning to go shopping too tomorrow. Will meet at some ce tomorrow. I will help you girls and you have to help me too." "Sure aunty!" "Ok Akshu, Will see you tomorrow. I will pick you girls from your pg." "It''s ok aunty. we wille to the mall." "Don''t be so formal, Akshu! Be ready by 10. Bye" "Haha ok aunty. Bye!" I disconnected the call and went to the hall. Someone is at the door. "Hi Disha. Come in." "Hello Madam. How are you?" "I''m good. So, you have the details of the new orphanage?" "Oh yes madam. There are 170 kids and grown-ups there. This file has the proper age wise list." "Mmm ok Disha. Thanks! You can go now." "Madam! When are you nning to go shopping?" "Oh, about that Disha, I have someone to help me this time. So, you are good to go." "Oh! Ok madam! see you!" I nodded my head to her. I usually don¡¯t like girls that show off their skin. What is the need to dress like this to work? It''s because of these girls, my son has a bad image of girls and he uses them like they are nothing. I was very happy with my son''s progress in his career until he got involved in cinema. That changed everything. Aravind told me that he had warned Yadu. His time is one year. I hope he wille around as my son in this one year¡¯s time. I now feel like he is already irritated by the invasion of his privacy by these media. If his fantasy for the movies dies soon, he will eventually close his production house. If he does that, then I''m sure he won''t be bothered anymore. Let''s see! But except for that, Yadu is an idle son. He will stay the full Sunday with us at home. That stopped when we started talking to him about his marriage. He thinks every girl out there are simr to the girls he met. I hope he meets Akshu. But Aravind said not to force anything. Akshu''s PoV "Kavya! Aunty said she wille to pick us up for shopping tomorrow." I told Kavya. "What? Are you mad? We want to buy some modern clothes, Akshu. How can we try it if aunty is with us?" she asked. "Oh, don¡¯t worry. I told her what the asion was and what we were going to buy!" "What? What will she think of us? You are mad, Akshu!" She just overreacted just like aunt did. "Kavi, stop this. We are going to a pub. We are doing this. Then why hide away? Why are you bothering about what aunty will think? If you think we are doing something wrong, then I think we should not go." I told her. "Pch, Not like that." "Hmmm we are going anyway. What''s the problem in letting them know? I didn¡¯t force you to tell your mom because I know she is a conservative type. But aunty is very friendly with us. She won¡¯t think bad of us." "Ok ok! Vishwa ising. I will talk to you when you leave." She spoke in a hurry and left. "Haha, enjoy! Bye de!" N?velDrama.Org ? 2024. I think Kavya is over thinking. Hmmm she has work and romance both at her workce. Pch, Look at me, No work! No romance! Boring life! "Akshu, Did you fix this bug already?" Priya asked me. "Please don¡¯t call it a bug. This app''s user should be a phobic person. What''s the problem with this color? He wants me to change the color of this text. I did it in my school. Actually, this is what I did when my dad bought me a desktop when I was in 8th standard using html. This job is boring Priya." "Are you for real? No work with hefty pay is what everyone is dying for. And you whine about that?" She asked me unbelievably. "If they don''t assign me any work, I''m nning to look for other smallpany openings. Actually, that is where we can learn loads." "You are nuts. If you are bored, I will send my bug list to you. Fix them!" "Pch! Those will be boring too. Anyways, send me. Something is better than nothing." My office time is over. I took the cab to our pg after bidding a bye to Kavi. Hmmm, Lucky Girl! I have always wanted to wear modern outfits like knee length dresses, sleeveless dresses and so on. But my mom had never allowed me. Besides, our college required us to wear salwars. My hometown is not so modern and the climate needs sweaters most of the time. So, there was no need for western outfits. But I usually wear jeans and tops. I''m so excited to get a trendy modern dress for myself tomorrow. My mom agreed with so many conditions. Chapter 17: 17. She can Change You? Chapter 17: 17. She can Change You? Akshu''s PoV We both were ready and now waiting for aunty to pick us up. There shees. "Hi, Akshu. Hi, Kavya. Shall we go?" She asked, opening the door for us. "Sure, aunty." Kavya said. We both got in and the car started to float. "What are you shopping for today aunty? silk sarees?" I asked her. "No dear. I know an orphanage. I''m nning to go there next weekend. So I just want to buy something for the kids there." "Wow. Super, aunty. Do you usually go there?" I asked her excitedly. "Um no, dear. This is my first visit to this orphanage." "Oh, ok ok. What are you nning to buy aunty? How many kids are there?" Kavya asked her. "There are around 200 kids. All of different ages. I usually will buy study materials like gk books, geometry boxes, coloring books, sketch pens, color pencils, uniforms. But this time I want to buy something different. Do you have any ideas?" Aunty asked both of us. "Um... don''t get me wrong, aunty. I personally feel these material gifts won''tst long. I¡¯m sure these are useful. The orphanage must also be getting funds and donations from others also. Everyone will think like you do. So, one way or another they will get these items." I told her. "Hmmm you are right. So, what do you suggest Akshu?" "I feel like you are capable of doing more than this to them. Kids in orphanages should have education. I''m sure the home would take care of it. But they also need something to ensure their mary needs when they go out. Some handy-works like sewing, crocheting etc.. You can arrange someone to teach those kids something like this, aunty!" "Wow, Akshu. It''s a good idea. I can definitely do that. That''s good thinking." "Thank you, aunty. Actually, from my childhood I earned every penny of my pocket money! My mom bought me a piggy bank when I was in kindergarten. She would give me money whenever I finish the chores she gives me. I used to water the nts, clean up my toys, put my clothes in their ce etc. As I grew the works she gave also grew like doing house chores, gardening, working in the farm, delivering strawberries to market. Actually, we can teach the kids farming." I said excitedly. "Very interesting. What else do you know, Akshu?" she asked me. "Haha. I know a little about tea estates. I know how to grow broli. I know how to make beautiful hats, baskets and bins using coconut leaves. I know crocheting. Mmmm that''s all I could remember aunty." C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. "You are surely a talented girl, Akshu! What about you Kavya?" "Kavya is a carnatic singer, aunty. She learned music."I said "Um... yes aunty. I know carnatic music." "Aunty, I know Bharatanatyam!" I said. "Haha! Ok Ok. Why don''t you girls teach the kids what you know every Sunday? I will pay you girls for your time and effort." aunty said. I saw Kavi. She is excited too. "We will teach them aunty. But we don¡¯t want money from you. We can¡¯t help them with money. Let us do this to help, aunty." I told her. She looked at us and nodded her head with a loving smile. Since aunty has no shopping, she took us to the mall for our dress. We tried on many clothes. As we are new to this, we feel very ufortable and exposed. I liked 3 dresses that I thought were good on me. Aunty said yellow and pink ones are beautiful. Kavi said everything looks good on me. I loved the white dress on Kavi. So, we froze in yellow and white dresses and got them. We bought matching essories for it and had tummy full in a restaurant. Aunty dropped us at our pg and went away. We had a nap and started to get ready for the party. We decided to go on our bike. Kavi said a strict no to champagne. Yadav''s PoV I called up Ashok after dropping her in her pg. I told him everything that has happened. I gave him that number, the call came from. He scolded me for going alone for an anonymous call. I know that was a mistake. I skipped her part. I don''t want to get her into more trouble than she already can bring on herself. Ashok questioned me on my business rivals. But I can''t pin-point someone on doing this. Besides, I strongly suspect the orphanage. Someone rted to that is doing this. Ashok said he will bring details to me ASAP! It was a total mood spoiler. My weekends went away by spending time with my mom and dad. After a long time, I felt like I gave them happiness. My dad and I yed table tennis. We all yed chess. It was refreshing. And the important point is, they both didn¡¯t talk about my marriage. That''s a relief! My weekdays went as usual. Busy and overloaded. It was Friday eve, Shiva and I left our office. He didn¡¯t bring his car today. So, I agreed to drop him. I was curious to know if she will be in that park today. Throughout the week she was constantly on my mind. I was worried about her safety. I even thought of arranging some security guards for her. But then, I was shocked by the thoughts I''m having! She is no one to me and I''m worried about her safety? God! I dropped the idea of going through her pg to drop Shiva. I went the regr way. "Yadav! Are you alright?" Shiva asked me. "Yes da. Why do you ask?" "I know you better than this. Are you still worried about the orphanage and that acid matter?" he asked me and I decided to go with that. I don''t want him or anybody else for that matter to think that I am disturbed by a girl. "Um... yes da! It''s something more to what we think." "Why not withdraw our adoption on that Orphanage, Yadav?" "Shiva, we took responsibility. It''s not fair to drop it like this. Besides, I''m not scared of their futile threats. If I can, I must stop whatever illegal things that are going on there." "Hmmm there is some other thing that''s eating up your mind. What is that?" he asked me. Best friend for a reason. "Nothing!" "You spent your weekend with aunty and uncle. You dodged 4 models and a heroine that approached you this week. I''m happy about this. But I know you too well to believe that this change is because of your dad''s advice." "Shiva, There is no reason. This incident spoiled my mood. I''m not in mood for some random sex. Nothing else." I cut him off. "Strange! You found rxation in the same random sex. Anyways I''m happy about it." He let it go. I dropped him and went home. The question Shiva asked me striked me like a sharp sting. Why did I not find rxation as I usually do? Did I lose interest in sex? That girl! She keeps on pestering my mind. I was constantly thinking about her. That is why I could not see other girls in my way. I should stop this madness. I called up Rakesh. I asked for a private ce in his pub tomorrow. He said I always will have a ce in his pub reserved. I just want to drink away her thoughts. I hate her for what she is doing to me. Chapter 18: 18. Alien Feeling! Chapter 18: 18. Alien Feeling! Yadav''s PoV It''s Saturday evening. I called up Chandru to apany me. I just want to drink hard and forget that damn girl. I always like to be in control of my emotions. I don''t like my feelings being all over the ce. It''s kinda haunting me. I feel like I''m losing my grip on myself. I cannot let a random girl make me feel lost. Chandru is not avable. Shit! What''s fun about going alone to a pub. I called up Shiva. "Dei! I''m going to Rakesh''s pub. I wille pick you up in 30minutes." "Dei Yadav. You know I''m notfortable in ces like pubs. You want beer? Let''s go to a bar. Or come home. I have some in my home. We will settle in on my terrace and watch some movies." "Pch, You areing. I''m starting from my home. Be at your door-step." I disconnected the call. He is impossible. He is still stuck in our college days. Though we studied different degrees, we still had contact. We used to try beer on his home terrace without his mom''s knowledge. He doesn¡¯t have a dad. He died in an ident. I drove to his home and as I said, I reached his home in 30minutes. He was all ready and standing out. He got in and we flew to the pub. It was 7pm when we entered the pub. It was crowded aspared to the previous time I came here. The bouncers took us to a secluded cabin and treated us with utmost respect. "This ce is nice and cozy. It''s more like a bar except for that loud music and the dance floor." Shiva said. "Yeah, I like this ce too. The dim light helps me to hide my identity." "Haha, Yeah So, are you going to tell me what''s wrong with you?" He asked me. "Shiva!" "Still holding up after 3 beers? Too bad, Yadav!" "That''s nothing da. I came here to get rid of those annoying thoughts. Don¡¯t bring it up again." "Ok ok!" He put his hands in the air. "You are going to pick up a girl from this dance floor today. Just dance. Try it." I told him. "Huh, No way. You know I''m socially awkward. Why push me?" "I''m going to dance tonight. You are going too. Just push your luck, Shiva!" After five beers each, we stood and went out of our cabin to the dance floor. The high I got through the beers drained off just like that with the scene in front of me. That same burning rage took me over. I punched that man on his face hard and pulled her elbow and took her to our cabin. Shiva was standing there dumbstruck and came running behind me. "Are you.." she cut me off! "Hey, YOU AGAIN? Wait! um... Are you insane? What the hell are you doing here at this hour all alone? Do you think rescuing you is my only job? This is what you wanted to tell me right?" She spoke like she was drunk. I lost my cool and pped her hard across her face! She was shocked and started crying like a baby. I was shocked too. Did I just hit a girl whose name I don¡¯t know? Who is just nobody to me? What the hell did I do? Why does it bother me to know that she is drunk? "A! It hurts, idiot! I¡¯m not alone here. I came with Kavi. She is busy dancing with her boyfriend. I was bored and I just asked for a fruit punch. I had five. But see, I feel like this ce is under an earthquake! You look like my Yash! That man asked for a dance and I said no. But he was nagging me. You hit him and saved me like a hero. Why do you alwayse to save me Yash!? The mysterious man who saved me is you? Why do I feel my heart flutter at your touch? This p too shows your concern for me! But it hurts very badly. Don¡¯t you raise your hand on me ever again. I love you, Yash!" She stood on her tippy toes and kissed my cheek. "I love your dimpled cheek!" She kissed me again! I was shocked is an understatement! The feeling when she kissed me is indescribable. I felt electricity passing through every cell of my body. Did she say ¡®I love you¡¯ to me? She is drunk. I cannot take things she talks about seriously at this state. Her drink is spiked. What would have happened if I''m not here. I called the tender who was attending us. I exined the situation and asked to bring the tender who attended to her. "Dei! What''s going on? Do you know her? Why did you beat that man da? You hit a girl? Girlsing here usually go for a dance with random guys right!?" Shiva asked mepletely clueless of anything that was happening. I myself have no idea what the shit I am doing. "Shiva!" my voice rang in a warning tone which I have never used against him. "Sorry da!" he trailed off. "She is not that kind of a girl. She is new to the city." I exined to him but I truly don¡¯t know why I took her side and chided Shiva. The tender came in with another man. "Hey, he gave me a fruit punch, Yash." she pointed her finger at that man. I was still holding her close to me. She is hugging my arms. "Hey, I asked for a fruit punch, right? Fruit punch is alcohol? Kavi is going to kill me." She started with him and ended up talking to herself. I find it so cute. Never have I ever found cuteness in girls. She always does things and is afraid of her friend. I smiled at her antics. But I diverted my gaze to that man and with just a look I knew he was at fault. "Did you serve her fruit punch?" I asked him. "Sir, they came with the man who hosts this party out. He asked me to serve them with red wine. But they ordered a fruit punch. When I said that to him, he asked me to spike their drink. I just mixed red wine in their fruit punch. The other girl had three shots and he took her to the dance floor. She had two more shots. She drank it so slow that she got high soon." he said with a guilty tone. "You spike someone''s drink without their knowledge? How dare you?" "Sorry, sir. This won¡¯t happen again." He pleaded to me. But I''m not convinced. I called up Rakesh and informed him about this incident. I asked the other tender about Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. the host of the party. He showed me a man who was dancing with a girl very inappropriately. When he turned, I recognized him at once. Vishwa, my collegemate! "How did you girlse here?" I shook her. "We came in our scooty, Yash." she mumbled. Still not in her senses, she is sitting in our cabin with her head on the table and holding my arm with both her hands. I was sitting very close to her. This urge to protect her is driving me crazy. Why can''t I just leave her and go on? They came to the pub in scooty? These girls are very stupid. I wonder how their parents allowed such stupid girls to stay alone. "You cannot drive. I will call for a cab. Go bring your friend. I will arrange for someone to get your bike to your pg." I told her. "Mhum, I like being with you. Stay with me, Yash." She lifted her head from the table and leaned on my shoulder. What the hell am I feeling!? "Dei Yadav. So, this is what has been wrong with you for the past weeks huh? Who is she da?" Shiva asked me with a known smirk! "Pch, I don¡¯t know anything about her. It''s her who saved me by warning me at the right timest week." "Oh! Do you know her friend? I can go and bring her if you show her to me. Shall I call for a cab?" He asked me. "Um... we will drop them ourselves da. I''m not sure about her friend. Call that tender and ask him to show the girl that came with her." Shiva went out to do what I said. What am I doing with this unknown girl? Have I ever lent my shoulders to a girl? Nope! Why do I feel like kicking the life out of Vishwa? How dare he spiked the drinks of this innocent girl? What about her friend? Was she the one dancing with him? He has never reformed. Always goes behind girls who are not his Type! Chapter 19: 19. After Effects Chapter 19: 19. After Effects Akshu''s PoV N?velDrama.Org content. I woke up with a headache. I saw Kavi sitting on her bed with her head buried in her knees. What happened? Everything was a blur in my memory. We went to the pub. Vishwa came and took us in. All her teammates were already there. He said all the orders are on him. Everyone started ordering their drinks. He cut the cake, He fed Kavi, We all had some cake and continued with the drinks. Me and Kavi ordered fruit punch. Vishwa asked Kavi for a dance. She went with him. Everyone went to the dance floor. I don''t feel like dancing. I ordered for 2more fruit punches. I was thinking about that blue cap. His concern for me, His coldness towards me, The electric effect I get every time he is with me. Do I love him? How can I love him when I have not even seen his face? But my heart truly wishes to see him. Some guy in the pub came to me and started flirting with me, interrupting my sweet thinking about that mysterious man. I denied him. I felt light in my head and dozed off on the table. I woke up when I had that same dream of Yash kissing me on my lips. This dream is getting very regr for me. It feels so real every time. I was very confused with my feelings. I know this fantasy towards Yash is not real. But the feeling I have on that stranger is very true. Then why the hell do I dream of Yash kissing the life out of me? Why do I dream that the mysterious man is Yash? That same intruder came again and this time he had that audacity to hold my hand and ask for a dance. I wanted to punch him on the face. But my hands don¡¯t do what I said. Someone gave that hard punch he deserved and took me to safety. How the hell did wee back? Did I drink something else? So, is this headache called a hangover? It''s terrible. "Kavi!" I called her. She looked up at me and I ran to her. She is crying? But why? "Hey why are you crying? What happened?" She hugged me and started crying more. I don¡¯t know what happened. "Hey, you are scaring me. What happened? Stop crying de!" She showed me her neck. She has got bruises? It just ended above her breast. She sure had bad fun yesterday. Why is she crying? "Pch, Don¡¯t make a scene, Kavi. You have a fucking hickey? Now tell me that you love Vishwa. I knew it from the start. But this is too much, Kavi. How long did you know him? How can you let him do this to you? Be at a safe distance until you get permission from your parents for marriage. I really don¡¯t like this. You went for a dance and I don¡¯t remember anything after that. I think I drank something else. How did you manage to bring me back to pg?" "Akshu, Please don¡¯t talk like this. I didn¡¯t allow him. I don''t love him anymore. He spiked our drinks. He misused me. A guy named Shiva took me from him and showed you to me. You were out too. He exined what happened to me and dropped us at our pg with his friend. He said you know his friend already. They delivered our bike too. I''m feeling disgusted. How am I going to face everyone tomorrow? How will I work with him henceforth? I feel like killing him! Thank god your friend saw you. What would have happened if he was not there at the right time? I''m so sorry. It''s all because of me." She started crying more. I wanted to kill that bastard. Wait a minute, So, it''s not a dream? Did I really see Yash? Is he the mysterious man? God, I said I love you to him. I even kissed him. How embarrassing?! I truly thought that was a dream. I asked him to stay with me? I leaned on his shoulders? Wait a minute! Did he hit me? How many of these incidents were dreams and how many are real? I felt my headache worsen by the minute. "Pch, Stop crying. We are safe now, that is what is more important now. Just put everything behind and move forward. We tried to explore out of ourfort zone, and it turns out that we are not meant for it. Be a bold girl, Kavi. Don¡¯t let that pig define your dignity. Face him boldly. He will just go out of your way. There will be many men like him. If we cannot face him, we have to go back to our home. Decide and tell me." I spoke to her harshly! She needsmand right now. She is scared and can¡¯t think straight. I''m here to guide her out of it. What are friends for? She looked at me and nodded her head. I needed a pill for my headache. I told her and went to the pharmacy. My mind kept on ying distorted scenes from my memory ofst night. I saw Yash. He had the same metallic voice as that of the stranger. He held me by my elbow just like the stranger. I felt the same vibration on my heart at his touch. I felt safe with him. I felt the same concern. I felt relief wash over me when I held his arm. I felt home when I leaned on his shoulder. Did he feel the same way? Did he p me? If so, why? Is that really Yash or my mind ys with me? I had so many questions popping everywhere in my head. I saw an Audi car parked a little further from my pg. Did I see a blue cap? I ran towards the car, but the car sped off when I neared it. Am I still dreaming? Chapter 20: 20. Is that Him? Chapter 20: 20. Is that Him? Yadav''s PoV Shiva brought her friend. She was in better condition than this stupid girl in my embrace. I covered my face with a cap. She was already getting out of the effects of wine because of dancing so long. She even knew a hint of what exactly happened. When Shiva exined to her, she started crying. I''m getting irritated. How can these girls be so naive? I thought these kinda girls only existed in prehistoric times. Girls nowadays are so strong and cunning. He consoled her and we took them to our car. That Kavi girl is in no mood to see what her friend is doing. "Yash, I will sit with only you." She said still hanging on my arms. I don''tin. I''m enjoying it and that makes me mad at myself. I asked Shiva to drive and Kavi to sit in front. I sat with this nameless girl at the back seat. She took my hand and circled it around her and leaned in on my chest. I know she is boozed. But I also strongly believe that she wouldn''t do this if it was not me. "You didn¡¯t answer me, Yash." she spoke out of nowhere. "What did you ask?" "I said I love you. You didn¡¯t say it back yet.¡± She was talking like a baby. What should I say now? I don''t do love. That''s an alien feeling. But whatever she is making me feel now is also alien for me. Never in my life have I ever felt these. "Just keep quiet." I yelled at her. She looked up from my chest. "I like it when you yell at me. You sound like my dad." She nuzzled closer if it was even possible and slept. She fucking slept on me? What am I doing? Shiva turned to look at me whenever she bbered on something like this. He has all the wrong ideas now. How do I know? It''s written all over his stupid face! I took her phone to give a ring to my number. I don''t know why I wanted her number. But I was stunned to see my picture on her screen. Is she a fan girl? Her phone was locked. Pattern lock. "Open your phone!" I gave it to her. "You don''t know? The pattern is ''AY'' my name and your name." she said and opened it with the same pattern. What is she? Why am I smiling? "Yadav!?" Shiva had that goofy smile on his face. "Shut up Shiva. Drive looking at the road." I controlled my smile and yelled at him. Her name starts with A! I dialed my number on her phone. I saved her number on my phone. We dropped them at their pg. Since Kavi was better, she took the ''A'' girl with her with thanks. I dropped Shiva in his home and went to my home. I couldn''t sleep at all. All I see is her. I smell like her. Her perfume was all over me. I hate to even change my clothes. Her fragrance makes me feel like she is still with me. I got ready when the sun hit and drove to her pg. I wanted to see her. It''s Sunday. Chances of hering out are very low. But I still waited. I felt so cheap doing this. My rational mind says this is utter nonsense. Waiting for an unknown girl is the very dumbest thing I have ever done. But my heart conflicts with everything my mind says. I saw hering in her pyjamas. She went straight to the pharmacy that is across her pg. I know, Hangover. But then she stopped in her tracks and looked my way. She came running to me. I so wanted to see her and talk to her. But I also don''t want to continue whatever this fuck is! So, I drove off. Kavya''s PoV I don''t know what I am feeling now. I feel so betrayed. I really had developed feelings for him. Like Akshu said, he is not worth it. I should move on. But I couldn''t shake him off from my heart. The way he spoke to me, the way his eyes brushed my heart, ever so gently. I don''t believe that he faked everything. But apparently, he tried to use me which left me with no choice than to believe that he is not the good person I thought him to be. We stayed in our room the whole Sunday. Akshu started to office as usual and I went along with her. I don¡¯t think I can handle things alone. When we went to our floor, I felt all eyes on me. I felt so ashamed of myself. I held Akshu''s hand tightly. She gave a tight squeeze reassuring me that she will be with me at every step. I''m grateful for her friendship. She came with me to my wing. Just when I was about to sit in my cabin, Vishwa came. Akshu gave him a hard kick on his leg just below his knee. He stumbled back and we could clearly see his pain on his face. I felt satisfied and hurt at the same time. "Don''t shout, you bastard. You will get attention from all the people here. I bet you don¡¯t want that now. Listen, don''t you dare mess with my friend again. If I ever see you near her, I will spoil your reputation here. There are many girls here who are your type. Don''t bother my friend. How dare you touch her with your filthy hands? Go fuck yourself, douchebag!" She spoke to him with a smile on her face. Whoever sees us from far will think that we are just talking. He just stood there dumbstruck! I know Akshu is very insensitive, but she is the most courageous girl I have ever known. I cannot even think about talking like this. But here she is. He went away, passing a look to me without even a word. "You will be fine, Kavi. No one here knows anything. They were all boozed yesterday. Be as usual. Give me a call if you feel something''s wrong." She told me and left for her ce. I resumed my work. As she said, no one bothered to ask me what happened yesterday. They must have thought bad about me. I felt like crying. But then, Harini, my teammate came to me. "Know what, Kavya? Our project manager resigned from his job. Looks like the management is into deducting people. He got a red notice in the mail today and he just left." She said. "What?" I couldn''t believe my ears. "Yes, You were so close to him. But he didn''t tell you? You and your friend were talking with him in the morning, right? I thought he told you." "No, he didn¡¯t tell me." I don¡¯t know how to react. It''s my stupidity that everyone here thinks that we were very close. I don''t think I can work here anymore. I called Akshu! "Hey, Akshu. That idiot is not working here anymore. He got red mail today morning. He is not in office right now." She was silent. "Hey Akshu, Are you there?" "Mmm yes, So, problem solved. You are safe. Now be at peace and do your work." She hung up on me. She may be busy!C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. Chapter 21: 21. Confrontation? Chapter 21: 21. Confrontation? Akshitha''s PoV Why do I feel like Yash is behind Vishwa''s red notice? The office we are working at has many projects on hand. They are still recruiting freshers. Why would they terminate an experienced man? Yadav is a high-profile man. Is it even possible that he was around me to save me every time I was in trouble? Mr. Gentleman always covered his face during our encounters. Amon man doesn''t need to hide his identity unless it was Yadav himself. Our every encounter was at night. The low to no light helped him to hide away. But in the pub? Though blurred, I know I saw HIM. I want answers. Is that really Yash? Does he feel the connection like I do? How can I meet him? I surfed online for his recent updates. Nope! Nothing! No updates on his activity from the day we came to Chennai. Is he out of the country? If so, then who is that stranger? Aaahhh! I feel like I''m getting insane just like he says. Since yesterday, I have been seeing Mr. Stranger as my Yash. Whenever I try to imagine his beard and lips, I see Yash''s face. I only see him. I still feel his protective hands around me. The moment I think of him, I feel at home. "Akshitha!" Nithya almost yelled on my face. "Pch, what Nithya?" "Happa! I''ve been calling you for almost five minutes now. Where were you?" "Sorry, Was just lost in thoughts. Tell me." "You like Yadav Rishid, right? He ising to Park Sheraton tonight for a sess party for his recent film." She said. "Really? how do you know?" I''m very excited. "My friend is a junior reporter. She told me. Her senior is exclusively working on Yadav. If you want to see him, I can ask her to take you along with reporters." "Please Nithya, Can you give me your friend''s number? I can talk to her myself." She gave me her number and also messaged her friend about me. After she left my cabin, I called the number she gave me. "Hi, this is Akshitha. Am I talking to Anitha?" "Hi, yes. Nithya just messaged me. Hold on Akshitha, my senior wants to talk to you." "um...sure." "Hello, This is Ramkumar here. Anitha said you are a fan of Yadav Rishid. I''m well acquainted with him. I can take you to meet him personally." He said. "Wow really, sir? I totally want to meet him. Can you arrange it tonight?" I asked him. "Sure, Akshitha. Here, take my number. Call me at 8pm tonight aftering to Park Sheraton. I will take you to him." "Um...sure sir. Thank you." I disconnected the call. I strongly feel it''s Destiny that wants us to meet. Why else would Nithyae out of nowhere and make an arrangement to meet Yash personally? So, it is Yash. Mr. Stranger is Yash. I can''t wait for 8pm. It''s almost 5pm now. I started to pg. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. "Kavi, I will take the scooty. I have some shopping to do. You take a cab for tonight. Please!" "Ok ok. Come back soon. Don''t just roam around." She said, giving me the keys. I grabbed it and left. Once in pg, I started to get ready to meet my Yash. I wore a red salwar. I just want to confirm my assumptions. If I get to meet Yash and if he is not Mr. Gentleman, then I can take pictures with him as a fan girl ande back. If what I think is true and if Yash is proved to be Mr. Gentleman, then I will do anything to get him. He is mine! I took my scooty and went to the venue. Looks like the party is in a secluded hall. The front of the hotel was calm and it didn¡¯t show any sign of a cine industry party. I called Ramkumar. He came to me and introduced himself. "Hi Akshitha, I''m Ramkumar. Nice meeting you. Yadav has arranged a room to meet the press exclusively. You stay in that room. The function is still on. We all wille to that room along with him." He told me. "Oh, can''t Ie with you?" For some reason, I don''t like to wait all alone in a room in a hotel. "They will not allow you inside the function hall. Only regr reporters are allowed in such functions." "Oh Ok! Then I will stay here. I will join you when you guyse." His reasons were valid for not taking me along with him. "You can¡¯t stay here all alone, Akshitha. Please stay in that room. The function may take another 45 minutes. I have to go cover it.¡± He said and I had no other choice but toply with him. "um...Ok!" I followed him to a big suite. It was amazing. The room boy opened the door for us. Ramkumar left after making sure I wasfortable. I started waiting impatiently! Yadav''s PoV This party is taking so long. The heroine of this movie is aplete nuisance. Can''t she read signals? I''m totally avoiding her, and she keeps on hanging around me. Since this party is on behalf of my production house, I cannot leave. The speech and thanking all went well and the buffet dinner started with drinks. I excused myself from her and went to the director. "Hello sir, Looks like you have a separate party after this." he spoke to me just the way that I lost my coolpletely. "Nope, Mr.Adish. Your heroine is a nuisance." I burst out at him. "What happened to you sir? Are you in love or any kind of rtionship? You have been acting indifferent for the past month." He looked surprised. I am surprised as well. "God, Nothing like that. Rubbish! I''m not in the mood today. Please divert your heroine." I told him. "Haha, I will do what I can. But you have something that makes chicse your way sir." Heughed at me. On usual days, I would haveughed with him. But today, I want to punch him on his face. Love and rtionships are thest words that I least expect to hear even in my death bed. After dinner, everyone started dancing. And as expected she asked me for a dance. I really don''t want to touch her. My mind is filled with that ¡®A¡¯ girl. Her fragrance still lingers on me. I liked her closeness. The way she spoke to me, the way she hugged my arm, the way she slept on me. I couldn''t get her out of my head. She ispletely disturbing me. I silently escaped the hall and went to my suite. I was dumbstruck with what I saw. She stood up from the couch and had a bright smile looking at me. I felt that same unknown rage. I don¡¯t know why I get angry whenever I see her. It''s all because of her. I happen to see her in bad situations all the time. I took long strides to her and held her elbow. "Are you insane? What the hell are you doing here? Idiot. Why are you so dumb? Don¡¯t you know to be safe? How the hell did you get in? God!" I pushed her aside and she fell on the couch. Her eyes are so big and innocent. Her child-like face has a bright smile. Is she deaf? I''m yelling at her and she is smiling like an idiot. "So, it''s you! You are Mr. Stranger! I''m so happy." She hugged me. She fucking hugged me? She didn¡¯t know what trouble she had gotten herself into. Idiot. I totally lost my cool and pulled her away and pped her hard across her face. "Yash!" She held a hand on her cheek and looked at me with a shocked look. Chapter 22: 22. Protect Her! Chapter 22: 22. Protect Her! Yadav''s PoV How the hell am I going to get her out of this suite without getting caught in the eyes of the media? As Adish said, the media didn''t get any hot news on me for almost a month now. They would surely be waiting for something. To top it all off, I just disappeared in the function hall all of a sudden. They will connect everything and will write all rubbish. I don¡¯t care what they write about me. But her!? I should get her out safely. Her identity should not be revealed. I really want to kill her for her stupidity. She is the epitome of stupidity! I turn to see her. She was sitting on the couch sniffing and caressing her cheek. The burning rage in me gets even higher if that was even possible. She didn¡¯t ask me anything. She didn¡¯t get angry at me for hitting her. First of all, this is the first time she has seen me. She may be a fangirl, but still hugging an unknown man is something she should never do. Why do I feel this way? I don''t know. I want her to be a girl of high moral values. Why? Again, I don¡¯t know. How can she react this way when a man hits her? Shouldn''t she be fierce? How the hell would she protect herself? "Hey, Look at me, Try being a fierce girl, idiot. Is this how you react when a stranger hits you?" She looked up at me with her beautiful eyes. How I wish to just get lost in her eyes. "You are not a stranger." She said. "How dare you hug me? Is this what you do when you see a man?" I want to strangle her and I am trying hard to control my anger on that poor girl. "Shut up, Yash. Don''t you dare cross the line and touch my dignity. What do you even know of me that you talk like this to me? You are mine and I don''t hug strangers!" she said with a little anger. I like it when she speaks up. I liked it when she said I''m hers¡¯. But this is no good to her. "I have never seen you before. If you are a fangirl just get a picture and get the hell out." I tried avoiding her. "Pch, Stop it, Yash. I know you are that blue cap Stranger. We have met many times before.I will tell you again, I love you. And I know you feel the same about me as I feel about you." She is insane. I should get angry now. But I feel satisfied. Weird! What the hell is she doing to me? "Idiot, Stop talking like a nut case. I''m not who you think I am." "Oh really, Then why did you hold my hand and say the very same dialog you say to me every time we meet? Why did you p me? Do you behave this way with girls you don¡¯t know?" She had that challenging look on her face. She just asked me the same damn thing I asked her. I don''t want her to know that I was the one that helped her. But God, How did I miss that? She continued talking. "I told you not to raise your hands on me again. Didn''t I? It really hurts. It¡¯s true that I love you but don''t you ever raise your hands on a girl. I came to meet you and you hit me? This is not how love works, Yash!" She started with anger and ended like a whine. Do I like it? Of course yes. I love how she calls me. She thinks I''m in love with her? She is an Idiot. She remembers everything that happened in the pub. I covered my face only when her friend came. So, she saw me! "God, Idiot! How did you get in?" I cannot handle her. She is so cute. She still didn¡¯t know the seriousness of the situation. "um... A reporter named Ramkumar asked me to stay here to meet you. Why aren''t other reporters here yet?" She asked me, looking out the door. What the hell? She came in through a reporter? I truly want to strangle her to death for her stupidity. I controlled myself because her cheek is already swollen and I regret doing that to her. But I still feel she deserves it. "Is he your friend?" I asked her. "Nope, I just met him! He is my office mate''s friend''s senior." She said, shrugging her shoulders as if it was nothing. Why can''t I p her again? Idiot. "Are you a mental retard? How old are you? Don''t you know not to trust strangers? Can''t you be more vignt? Idiot, there will be press outside now. You are following my every move through this media, right? You know what will they write if we go out together? They will click pictures of you and will write that you are my new fling. They will say that you slept with me. They will write that I fucked you. I wanted to stay away from you, idiot. I didn''t want to make any trouble for you. Look at you now. Your parents will be very proud of you if your photoes in papers and tv with this news!" I shouted at her. She stood there dumbstruck. Shock was clearly evident in her face. I almost feel sorry for her. "Aiyayo, What shall we do now, Yash?" She asked me, getting hermon sense back. "What is your name?" I finally asked her. "Sorry, My name is Akshitha. Nice meeting you." she forwarded her hand for a handshake. Seriously? "Are you for real? What am I talking about and what are you doing?" I yelled. "You should know your future wife''s name right!? And besides, I know you will take care of me. Why should I get tense?" she said, jerking her shoulders. I love her confidence in me and I hate myself for letting her in. This urge to protect her is scaring the shit out of me. I just ignored her and went into the room to call Shiva. But then, something struck me. Her name is Akshitha. Akshu? So, she was really at my home on that day. I thought my eyes yed a trick on me. I disconnected the call and went out. "Hey loosu! Do you know my mom and dad?" I asked her for which she shook her head in a no. "Pch, Do you know someone named Shalini and Aravind?" "Yes, Are they your parents?" her eyes grew even bigger. I just nodded at her and called my mom. "Ma, where are you?" "Home, Yadu. Why?" "Ma,e to Park Sheraton ASAP. My suite number is 309. Bring dad too if possible." "Yadu is everything fine?" "Wait a minute, I have a guest for you." I gave the phone to that idiot. "Tell her what you did and ask her toe to your rescue." I told her. She grabbed the phone from me with a wide smile. Is she not intimidated by me or this situation? "Hi aunty, Akshu here." "....." "I came to see Yash, aunty. Why didn¡¯t you tell me that he is your son?". "...." "I''m not going to talk to uncle anymore. I knew he looked so familiar, Yash has many traits from uncle." "..." "I don¡¯t know, aunty. Your son is very angry. We are in his suite." "..." "Ok aunty, We will..." I snatched the phone back. She is ridiculous. "Ma, This idiot has somehow got into my suite without my knowledge. There are press outside. We cannot go out together. Come soon and take her with you." "Ok Yadu, I''ming with dad. She is a good girl, Yadu. Don''t get angry with her." I disconnected the call and turned to her. "I''m talking about your damn reputation and here you are fighting with my mom for not letting you know that I''m her son?" I couldn''t even believe that she actually had that conversation at this moment. "Pch, Come here, Yash. Sit down. Why are you getting worked up? I know you will protect me. You came to my rescue even when we didn''t know each other. Why should I feel now? I''m actually very happy. Never in my wild dreams have I ever thought that I will meet you in person. But see, now you belong to me." "God, stop bbering like this. I don¡¯t love you. I''m not that kinda guy. I don''t want to be the reason for your misery. That is why I am now trying to save you. Besides, you are well known to my mom and dad. They won¡¯t be happy if the media writes about you in a wrong way. And to top it all, you are not my type." "Oh really? Then why did you save me in the park and pub? The first time you helped me, may be a coincidence. But why did you yell at me? Why did you show you are concerned about my safety? Why did you hit me when you saw me in the pub? Why did you hit me now? This is how you care for every passer-by girl? And ofcourse I am not that type of a girl who you spend a night with. I am for your life- time!" She said. The truth in her words made me more angry. I went near her and looked her in the eye. N?velDrama.Org content. "Look at me, I don''t love you. I don''t know you. You are just a stranger. Don''t you dare invade my privacy." I spoke to her in warning. "Ok ok, I agree. You don''t know me. I''m a stranger to you. But just keep this in mind, Yash. You belong to me and I know it in my heart." she spoke with conviction. I really love how confident she sounds. I just threw her a look and went into the room and locked myself in. I really don¡¯t know how to handle her. She speaks to me like it''s usual. She is very insensitive yet bold to convey her feelings. I now have a big question, Whom does she love? The guy who rescued her or Yadav Rishid? Chapter 23: 23. Who is Behind This? Chapter 23: 23. Who is Behind This? Akshitha''s PoV I can see what I have done. I know it was a mistake to end up in his suite without his knowledge. He was right. I shouldn''t have right away believed that Ramkumar. Now Yash locked himself in the room leaving me in the sitting area of this big luxurious suite. The moment I saw him, I felt so happy. He was more handsome and manly in person. The photos don''t do justice capturing his smartness. I practically turned into a fan girl and drooled over him. I forgot about everything that was rupturing my mind. But his sudden outburst brought me to real life. He yelled at me like he always does. I knew it was him. I love when he yells at me. It purely shows his concern for me. I almost see my dad while he is yelling. My mom is very strict but she won''t yell at me. She will tell me in a soft tone and when I don''t listen, she will hit me. All those days were long gone. But my dad, he would just yell at me if I made mistakes. After my dad, it is Yash that shows his concern by yelling at me. I was shocked, dumbstruck is all an understatement. I was on cloud nine that Mr. Stranger and Yash are one and the same person. I just spoke what came to my mind at that time. I don''t know what came on me, I knew he was mine and I just hugged him. His chest felt like home. But then, he pulled me out of him and gave me a tight p. God! He is a strong man. "Hey, Look at me, Try being a fierce girl, idiot! Is this how you react when a stranger hits you?" he asked me when I was crying because it damn hurts. I really admire him. His closeness gives me so much happiness. The way he questions me shows his love for me. He wants me to be fierce? He thinks that I will sit and cry when an unknown man hits me? "You are not a stranger!" I told him in between my sniffs. "How dare you hug me? Is this what you do when you see a man?" How dare he talk about me like that? I can understand that he tries toprehend everything that has happened. It''s hard for me too to digest the fact that I''m actually talking to Yash and I love him dearly. I couldn''t even believe that he has some feelings for me too. "Shut up, Yash. Don''t you dare cross the line and touch my dignity. What do you even know of me that you talk like this to me? You are mine and I don''t hug strangers!" I said with a little anger to stop him from talking like this. He tried to tell me that he doesn¡¯t know me. But for the fact, we both know what''s true. So, we had an argument that ended with him epting that Mr. Stranger is him. Not straight though. I understood his tension when he exined to me the situation we were in. But I didn''t feel anything bad. I have my full confidence in him regarding my safety. I know he will get me out somehow. "Hey loosu, Do you know my mom and dad?" he asked me all of a sudden out of nowhere. He called me ''loosu''? How dare he? How in the world would I know them? I shook my head in a no. "Pch, Do you know someone named Shalini and Aravind?" he asked me again. What? Shalu aunty and Aravind uncle are his parents? I knew it. I saw something on uncle''s face that resembled someone close to me. I couldn''t point it straight away. So that is why they behaved weird when I asked them about Yash. I just want to dunk my head in the ground for all the silly things I told to them about their own son! "Yes, Are they your parents?" I asked him. He just nodded at me and called Shalu aunty. After a little talk he gave the phone to me. "Tell her what you did and ask her toe to your rescue." he told me. I grabbed the phone from him with a wide smile. I truly don¡¯t know how to exin what I did. I know it was aplete stupidity on my part. "Hi aunty, Akshu here." "Hi dear, So you met him atst? How did you go to that ce at this time?" "I came to see Yash, aunty. Why didn¡¯t you tell me that he is your son?" "Sorry dear. Uncle said it''s for your own good. You know my son has a yboy image. We didn¡¯t want to get you into this." "I''m not going to talk to uncle anymore. I knew he looked so familiar, Yash has many traits from uncle." "Akshu, Please, don¡¯t get angry. What happened? Why does he want me toe there? What did you do?" "I don¡¯t know, aunty. Your son is very angry. We are in his suite." I don''t want to admit my stupidity to her, alright? "Angry? Ok Akshu. Wait, I wille in half an hour." "Ok aunty! We will..." he snatched the phone back. He is more angry now. But why? "Ma! This idiot has somehow got into my suite without my knowledge. There are press outside. We cannot go out together. Come soon and take her with you." "..." He disconnected the call and turned to me. "I''m talking about your damn reputation and here you are fighting with my mom for not letting you know that I''m her son?" He yelled at me again. God I''m tired of his yelling. "Pch, Come here, Yash. Sit down. I know you will protect me. You came to my rescue even when we didn''t know each other. Why should I feel now? I''m actually very happy. Never in my wild dreams have I ever thought that I will meet you in person. But see, now you belong to me!" I already said I love him. I know for sure that he belongs to me. My heart thumps loud whenever he is near me. I feel at peace and safe when he is with me. His embrace gives me immense pleasure. What else do I need to know that I love him? But he has yet to discover his feelings for me. "God, stop bbering like this. I don¡¯t love you. I''m not that kinda guy. I don''t want to be the reason for your misery. That is why I am now trying to save you. Besides, you are well known to my mom and dad. They won¡¯t be happy if the media writes about you in the wrong way." he told me with no expression on his face. It really hurts me. I know I''m being repulsive. He knows nothing about me. He is right about what he says. He is very logical. But it hurts me. I don¡¯t know where I stand. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "Oh really? Then why did you save me in the park and pub?

Why did you hit me now? This is how you care for every passer-by girl?" I almost cried. He came dangerously near me and looked me in the eye. "Look at me. I don''t love you. I don''t know you. You are just a stranger. Don''t you dare invade my privacy." he spoke to me in warning. My dumb mind enjoys his nearness and his sexy metallic voice, ignoring whatever he said. "Ok ok, I agree. You don''t know me. I''m a stranger to you. But just keep this in mind, Yash. You belong to me." I told him. He may have numerous flings. But if he feels what I feel then he will surely be mine. I''m now waiting for aunty and uncle toe. If we leave here as family, the reporters can''t write bad things about me. But why did Ramkumar do this to me? What did I ever do to him? I just met him today. How can this all be coincident? I was crushing my little brain for answers when I got a phone. "Hello!" "Hi Akshitha, How is my gift to you?" I heard a man on the phone. "Who is this?" "Oh, your friend didn¡¯t share my number with you? Vishwa here. You will see your name and photo in tomorrow''s headlines. You should know what will happen if you mess with me. Did you think I won¡¯t get any other job? You said you will spoil my reputation? I won¡¯t leave your friend too. Her reputation will be spoiled in your office. Your reputation will be spoiled all over India. You know why you get a bigger punishment?" He went on. "Oh, it''s you who did this? Anyways thank you, Vishwa. You made my all-time dreame true." I am more than angry with him, he is a venom. But he should know that whatever he nned didn''t work like he anticipated. I wanted him to know that he cannot win. I disconnected the call. Son of a bitch. So, is it his n? Is Nithya with him? I thought we were friends. I''m safe but what has he nned for Kavi? I knocked on the door where Yash is. Chapter 24: 24. That Connection! Chapter 24: 24. That Connection! Yadav''s PoV How did she end up here? If it was a trap created by the media, they would have chosen a random girl or even a celebrity. Why Akshitha? So, someone knows that I know her. Who is behind this? Is this a trap for her? If they want to spoil her name, there are numerous ways. Why do they involve me? Why the hell are we hooked together in every dangerous situation? Am I here to protect her always? She says she loves me. She says I¡¯m hers¡¯. Why didn¡¯t I get angry when she said that? Why the hell I didn¡¯t feel like having sex with anyone after I met her? Why do I see her in my dreams? Does this all mean I''m in love too? On her? On a stranger girl? What do I know about her except for the fact that she is a stupid? Is this Destiny? GOD! She was knocking on the door now. What the hell does she want now? I opened the door. "What now?" I asked her, not interested. "Yash, I know who set this all up." She said. N?velDrama.Org content. "Who else except for your stupidity?" I barked at her. "Pch, Chumma chumma thittadha pa. (Don''t scold me often.)" "God, Shut up and wait for my mom. If shees, for god''s sake, go with her and don''t ever show your face to me again." "That''s not going to happen. Are you behind Vishwa''s termination in my office?" How did she know? I was super angry at him for intoxicating her. I don''t know if he was behind her or her friend. But he was responsible for her condition the other night so I called up my contacts in his office to send him home. I thought to send him away permanently from her way. "So, you did that." she said when I stood there without answering her. "I don''t know what you are talking about." I denied. "I know face reading, Yash. Why did you expel him from my office?" she asked me with a glint of naughtiness in her tone. "Pch, Stop this nonsense. I didn''t do anything like you say. Why does that have anything to do with you being here?" "That idiot thought to spoil my name by putting me in your suite. He doesn''t know that you will protect me!" she said yfully. "You are insane. Can''t you see what situation you are in? How can you be yful? Idiot! Are you not afraid to be with me in a suite all alone? You know the time now? It''s 10.30 already!" "It''s ok. Kavi wille to pg only at 11pm. I can go before her." she said. "You are afraid of your friend? That is all that matters for you? What about the other questions I asked you?" "Oh, you mean the meaningless questions you asked me? Do you want answers for them? I''m not scared of you. You can do no harm to me." "What if I try to get you on my bed?" "Haha! If you had those thoughts, you wouldn''t have called your mom. You wouldn''t have been asking me this stupid question. And besides, if you are mine then I''m yours." she winked at me. FUCK! I''m not a womanizer. I won¡¯t force myself on a girl. But I''m not a saint either. The thing is never once have I seen her inappropriately. Why? I hate how she talks to me. I hate how much she can read me. I hate being an open book to her. I''m a tough man. Someone''s at the door. That''s my mom. She opened the door with a full-blown smile. Shiva has also come with my mom. My mom and that loosu started talking while me and Shiva went in the room. "What happened, da? How did she get in here? There were many reporters in the corridor while we came. But seeing us, many left!" Shiva said. "The party is still on, right?" I asked him. "Yes." "Call my bouncers and ask them to look for a reporter named Ramkumar. I want him now." Shiva went to put my n into action. My mom came to me. "Yadu, I will take her to her pg. She will be alright right? She says that someone named Vishwa called her and said he will spoil her and Kavi''s name. She is scared for Kavi." My mom said. "Oh, she is not scared for herself? Ask her to be afraid for herself too. Now get her out of here." I spoke out of full frustration because of the trust she has on me. I let them out after making sure there is no one to take pictures. After they left, Shiva came in with my bouncers and that man. He was standing between my bouncers with his face evidently showing off his tension and fear. "Hello Mr. Ramkumar, How are you? Got your story for tonight? Tomorrow your channel will have higher TRP. You have exclusive pictures of a girl who spent her time with me right?" I asked him. "Sir, I have no idea what you are talking about." he tried to deny but his face failed him. "Oh really, Fine." I called up his channel. I''m a high-profile man. I have contacts in every nook and corner. I terminated him from his office in just a call, in front of him. "Sir, Please sir, I just did what I was told. Sorry, sir." he pleaded to me. But I''m in no mood. How dare he spoil the reputation of an innocent girl? "You dared to spoil a girl''s life. Now I will make sure you will never be a journalist anywhere in India. Go do something else fearing your conscience." He slumped his shoulders and went out. I felt a little satisfied with what I did. Now I should teach a lesson to Vishwa. That son of a bitch! "Yadav, I think you are over-reacting. You could have left him with a warning." Shiva said. "Shiva, Get that Vishwa." "Yadav, Please, Rx. You are adding up people in her enemy list. Vishwa did this because he knew you expelled him from his work because of her. That is why he yed with her. Now this man. You are evidently exposing your favor for that girl. That will only put her in more risk. Just let it go, Vishwa will slide back." he said which made more sense. I truly don''t know why I feel responsible for her safety but I do. Shiva is right. I cannot risk her. I should be clear of her way. The more I involve in her, the more risk I put her into. She is already a stupid girl. I must keep a lookout for her. But I should do it from a distance. I called my friend''s security service. "Tarun, Yadav here." "Yeah man, Tell me. How are you?" "I''m good, Tarun. I need a security man. A strong man to keep an eye on a girl. She should not know about this. He should follow her from far and be ready to lend help whenever necessary. He should also update me on a regr basis." I told him. "Are you talking about security for a girl? Who is that special girl, Yadav?" He asked me in joy. "It must be confidential. No more questions. You pick a strong loyal man and send him to my office tomorrow. If I find him fit, I will talk the rest to him." I told him. "Ok boss, Will send a man tomorrow." I sighed to myself. What am I doing? I feel it¡¯s all unnecessary. But I also feel responsible for that stupid''s safety. Who is she?! Chapter 25: 25. Kavya鈥檚 Distress! Chapter 25: 25. Kavya¡¯s Distress! Akshitha''s PoV I want to stop Kavi from going to the office. Whatever that son of a bitch has nned for her, I should save her from it. "Kavi, I have a bad stomach pain. I can''t even get up." I told her. "Get up, Akshu. Have this coffee. You will feel good." "No, I''m not going to the office today." "Pch, You don¡¯t want to go? Then inform your team lead. Why lie to me?" she asked, irritated. "No lies. My stomach really hurts." "Ok ok, Stay back. I will buy you medicine from the medicals before I go." she said. "um...No no, You will stay back with me to take care of me." "Don¡¯t y around, Akshu. I have a lot of work toplete. I have a meeting with a client too." "Nothing will stop if you don¡¯t go. You are staying back." I tried to stop her. "Akshu!" "YOU ARE STAYING BACK." I shouted and she retreated. "Ok!" I cannot tell her that Vishwa made plots for me and her. I cannot tell her that Yash saved me. She will kill me for my stupidity. Besides, she will feel guilty, which she doesn¡¯t have to. So, stopping her from going to the office will save her. We had our breakfast and were ying Candy crush on the phone when our mobiles pinged with messages. Kavya''s phone was continuously buzzing. I opened the message and was shocked to see what that was. I thought I saved her. But no, I didn¡¯t save her. How am I going to bring her out of this? That bastard, He should be killed. How can he do this to her? I should have thought about this. He went so low to spoil my image. I should have expected something like this. I looked at Kavi. She was stunned looking at her phone. What should I do now? How will she go back to that office? Priya and Nithya are calling me on my phone. Pramod is also calling me. God! "Kavi." I touched her shoulder. "So, you knew this wasing. That is why you didn¡¯t let me go?" She asked me and I really didn''t have an answer. I could not see her with dead eyes. "No, Kavi. No, I don¡¯t exactly know what wasing. I thought I saved you." I cried. I couldn¡¯t see her like this. Her phone is constantly ringing and pinging. "It''s all my fault. I fell for the wrong man. It''s him. Isn''t it? " she asked. She didn''t cry yet and that is scaring me to hell. "Kavi." "You knew it. It''s Vishwa. He did it. Didn''t he?" I just nodded my head. She threw her phone on the ground and it broke into pieces. She started crying aloud. I let her cry. I went out of our room. I called a cab to the police station for women. This needs to be sorted out. "Excuse me, madam. I''m Akshitha. I''m here to make aint." I told the cop that stood outside. "Yes, What is it about?" She took me inside. "Madam, me and my friend are working in xxx. Someone morphed my friend''s photo into a topless picture and uploaded it to a porn site. He also put on her number. He also sent the link through mail to all our office mates now. We need to take down her picture immediately, madam." I showed her the mail and everything. "This is cybercrime. Do you have any idea on who would have done this? Why didn¡¯t you bring your friend?" The inspector asked me. "She is very upset about all this, madam. Please do something. Her reputation is very important. Please get it down before it goes out of our office." I almost cried to her. We can survive without this job. But not if this leaks out. No one should know about this. We should resign from this job and go back to our ce. This world is very cruel with monsters all around. I don''t want to name him. I''m scared now. Getting out of this is more important than to get revenge. We don¡¯t want to get into more trouble by giving his name to the police. I know I''m being a coward. But I also know that this is all because I kicked him and brushed his male ego. I shouldn''t have done that. I was very angry with him. I didn¡¯t know what he was capable of at that time. The police worked so quickly and brought that site down in the next half an hour. They also hacked that ount and deleted everything. When they tried to track down where it was uploaded, they didn''t get a clue. I know that bastard is techie. "Thank you so much, madam. I think this is enough. We anyways can¡¯t work in that office anymore. So, we don¡¯t want to make it aint. We will resign and go back to our native." I told her. "Listen Akshitha, this is purely your decision. But if you get afraid of filthy pigs like these, you cannot survive. Here is my card. You can call me if you know anything about who might have done this." the inspector said. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. "Sure madam. Thank you." I took leave from her. I left the police station and went back to our pg. The heavy feeling I felt while going to the police station is now settled. I should tell this to her, I should let her know that she is safe and there is nothing to be worried about anymore. "Kavi!" I shouted as I opened the door of our room and felt like strangling her to death. "What are you doing, Kavi? So, this is it? Everything''s over? What about me? Your mom and dad? Great job, go ahead, Do you need some help? I can google to see how to knot." I told her. "Akshu!" She jumped down from bed and dropped her dupatta which she was trying to hang herself. I gave her a tight p. Another! And another! My anger doesn¡¯t subside. "Akshu!" She hugged me and started crying again. "I will kill you myself. Don¡¯t worry, Are you this coward? The site is down and also those pictures are deleted. We will send our resignation through mail. We will go back to Coimbatore. We don¡¯t have to tell any of these to anyone. It''s over, Kavi." I told her harshly to let the matter sink into her thick skull. She cried on me holding me like her life depends on me. I hugged her back and let her cry until she dozed off. I felt really bad for her. I wanted to kill him for what he did to Kavi. My mind is boggled with so many thoughts of how to put thisplete thing behind us and move forward. "I went to the police station. But I didn''tin on him. If you want toin, then we can do it." I told her in the evening after she woke up. She started crying all over again when she woke up and I am totally helpless. I feel it¡¯s all because of me, if at all I have been more sensitive and controlled my tongue with him, he might have left us alone. "No, Akshu. I don''t want to press any charges against him. I am scared. How will I ever go out and face people? I don''t want to live anymore.¡± she said, sobbing. ¡°Stop talking like this, Kavi. I am so sorry. It is all because of me that he did this to you. I am sorry, kavi. If you don''t want to live then I do not deserve to live.¡± I told her crying. I am responsible for her current situation. ¡°No, Akshu. You are not responsible for anything. It¡¯s all me. I fell for the wrong person. You were right before. It''s all over. Let''s go back to our ce, Akshu." She said hurriedly with a little better tone. So that¡¯s my cue. My sorrow will help her get out of this. I continued the me game and made her eat and sleep. We both framed our resignation mail and sent it to our office. We have signed a contract for 12 months. It''s just 7 weeks now. If we have to break the contract, we should pay akh each. Huge amount. We should make it up somehow. "What will we tell our parents about our resignation? How will they give us 1kh Akshu? They will ask for a reason. I''m scared." She started again. But she is right. What should we tell our parents? "Hey, we have our chain, ring and earring. We will sell these and pay 1kh." I told her to cheer her up. "Pch, we won¡¯t get 1kh for these. Besides, what will you tell if our parents ask about our jewels?" "Will tell we lost it. Or someone stole it from us. We shall sell our bike too for the rest of the money. What do you say?" I asked her. "I¡¯m so sorry. It''s all because of me." She started crying again. "Kavi, Look at me. We are friends. We will get out of this together. We will go out and check how much we will get if we sell our jewels. Also, we shall check with a mechanic on how much our bike is worth." I told her that I will be with her on this. "Thank you, Akshu. We will go after lunch." It¡¯s already been two days since we sent our resignation mail. We never left our room except for food and that''s just me. We wereying on our bed in silence when my phone pinged. It''s an email. I hurriedly opened it to see it was from my office. "Dear Akshitha, Your resignation is taken, and we free you off your contract. You can collect your certificates and other documents anytime. We understand if you don¡¯t want toe in person. We can mail your documents to you. Also, your agreement breaking fine is paid. Here is a receipt attached for your perusal. All the best! Management." What? WHAT? WHAAAAATTT? Chapter 26: 26. Her Knight in Shining Armor! Chapter 26: 26. Her Knight in Shining Armor! Yadav''s PoV I got a call from Joshua, the security guard for Shia (Akshitha)! Monday, very morning? She is a total disturbance. I don''t know what stupid thing she has done now. I picked up the call. "Sir, Good morning. Akshitha is now in the women''s police station. She looks devastated." He said. "What? why is she there? Is she alone or with her friend?" "She is alone sir. But her friend didn¡¯t go to the office today. She must be in her pg." "Then why did shee alone? Why didn''t they both go to the office?" I asked, more to myself. "No idea sir. Do you want me to check with the police for details?" "Nope! Just keep an eye on her from afar. I will look into it." I hung up on him. She is definitely a problematic girl. Shit! I called up my contact in her office to know if everything was alright there. But I got to know why she went to the police station. That bastard! But then he also said the site is now down. So, the police worked fast on it. Thank god, I pity that girl but also think that girls must be more vignt in whom they trust. These two girlsck the basic maturity to their age. So now they cannot work there anymore. I''m not sure what they will do now. For a girl with sanity and a meagre amount ofmon sense, they should go back to their home. But we are talking about Shia here. She is an escaped piece from the museum! She will definitely do something that no one would even imagine to do. "Shiva, make up two vacant posts and send out interview mails to that stupid and her friend. Get their mail ids from Ranjith. Set the interview date to this friday." I thought of giving them some time to get out of this dreadful situation so that they can think properly. "So, you want to see her all the time? Hmmm, Something happened to you and I''m happy about it." Shiva said genuinely happy and needless to say that I hate it. "Nothing like you anticipate. I''m just worried about her safety." "Ok, If you say so. I will try and believe what you said." Shiva said with a wide grin. I know I behave weird. But I couldn''t stop myself. After Shiva left the room, I got a call from Ranjith, the HR head of Shia''s office, who gives me information on her. "What''s up Ranjith?" I attended his call. "Yadav, those girls just mailed me their resignation letters. They have to pay onekh each to break the bond. I just thought to intimate you." He said. "Oh, Do something, Ranjith. I will pay the twokhs. Just send their certificates and stuff to their pg. Relieve them from your office ASAP." "Ok, Yadav. Will do." "Thanks, Ranjith. Keep it confidential." "Sure, Yadav!" Ok, Now they will receive their relieving order and interview letters. Will theye for the interview? She will know instantly that I paid for her. How will she react? Akshu''s PoV I logged into Kavi''s mail from my phone and guess what, she got the same mail from Ranjith. I didn''t tell Kavi anything. Since she broke her phone, she couldn''t see the mail. I knew who would have paid that big amount. I knew on whose influence our resignation was taken and processed so soon. I mean, a proper resignation will take weeks to get through to the HR. But here, it happened in a day? Whom am I kidding? I know how we are going to get our certificates through mail. Everything at our doorstep? Without even our signatures. Yash should be the one! What did he think of himself? Why is he doing all this? He knows what happens around me. How? He won¡¯t ept that he has feelings for me. But he will keep tabs on me and will help me out in every situation!? I don''t understand. He worries about my safety. But he also will stay away from me!? I got another email. From Yash''s office? I read it over and over again. It says they have openings for software development. And the interview is on Friday. Why do I feel like this vacancy is exclusively made for us? What is he trying to do? Whatever it is, I''m super happy now. I was longing to see him at least once. But now, I''m going to work in his office which means I can see him often, that is if I get the job. But I have a strong feeling that I will get it. I know I love him. I have admiration and liking for Yash. But I love my stranger. It''s just my luck they both happen to be the same guy. Also this ce change is a must for Kavi¡¯s mental health. She is refusing to even step out of the room and is paranoid that whoever looks at her has seen her photograph on that porn site. Ok! How should I tell this to Kavi?! I should make her believe that it¡¯s a genuine opportunity. "Kavi!" I started while she was crouching on the bed crying. The only time she is not crying is when she sleeps and that too a little time. I have seen her sit up on the bed in the middle of the night. It pains my heart to see her like this. I try hard to divert her from those horrid memories but she is reluctant to let go of it. "Mmm" she hummed in response. "There is an interview at xyzpany on Friday. Ranjith sir has rmended it. Shall we attend it?" I asked her, praying to all the gods that she should buy it. "You are still behind him? Are you out of your mind? I am not staying in this damn ce anymore. We are going back." she said. "Ok, We will go back. Have you prepared the reason to tell our parents?" I asked her. She just speaks her emotion but that will not help us now. "um.." "Listen Kavi, We shall attend this interview. This office is closer than our current office. Nothing will change. We shall tell our parents that we got a better option." I told her. "Will this really work?" "Let¡¯s first attend this interview. Let¡¯s see if we can ace it!" "Hmmm ok de. But..." I cut her off. "No buts, Kavi. Just forget what happened. It''s all over now. We have not pressed charges against Vishwa. He is a closed chapter. We have to move forward. I have a strong feeling that we will get ced in this interview." "But Akshu, We need our certificates to attend the interview. To get our certificates we need Twokhs, Remember!?" Ok, she is notpletely driven by emotions and that is good. "um... About that, Ranjith sir just sent an email to me now. He says we can get our certificates now and give the money after we get ced in apany. He said he does this because he understood what we are going through now. He said he is giving our certificates at his own risk because he knows that we cannot work there anymore. And he also knew who did this!" I told a big lie. I just prayed to god that she buys it as well. "Also, he said he can mail out our documents. That is if we don¡¯t want to go there." I added when she looked at me unbelievably. "Really, Akshu? Omg, Thank god. We are so lucky. I don''t really know if it''s true. How is this happening? Yes, ask him to mail us our documents. I can¡¯t believe that he is relieving us so soon. So, we don''t have to sell our jewels and bike? Is this a sign that I should put everything behind?" She spoke excitedly. I am happy if she cane out of it. "We have to, idiot. Anyways our parents won¡¯t give money, remember?" Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "Oh...!" she trailed off. "Kavi, Don¡¯t think too much. Ranjith sir has given us time. We will attend this interview. If we get this job, we don''t have to sell anything. We can take out loans on our jewels. Give the bond breaking fee and get it back when we get enough money. If we don¡¯t get this job then we will stick to our previous n." I told her the options we have in front of us. I should make up that money and give it back to Yash. He already helped us in many situations. We cannot take advantage of him. I shall let Kavi knowter. "Mmm ok¡± she said and shrunk back in the bed. ¡°Nowe, let''s prepare for our interview!" I pulled her up. I must keep her upied. I have another important job to get done. I called Shalu Aunty. Chapter 27: 27. Diversion Becomes Danger? Chapter 27: 27. Diversion Bes Danger? Yadav''s PoV Hell with these meetings. It''s very boring and everyone will talk about all unnecessary things. I like people who talk on point. But unfortunately, such people are very few in number. I left the meeting hall halfway through in frustration. I got a call from Ashok. "Yes, Ashok. Got anything worthy?" I asked him. N?velDrama.Org content. "Yadav, Everything the anonymous man told you was true. A foreign pharmapany hase up with a new medicine for cancer. They are testing it with the kids in that orphanage. But this is just happening now. Our department has tabs on four more orphanages including this one for a long time now, suspecting of organ trafficking. We didn¡¯t get any solid proofs on it yet. I would suggest you withdraw your adoption on this orphanage before it all esctes to another level. That way your name won¡¯t be on it." He said. "Mmm, I''m not going to withdraw. I''m responsible for everyone in that ce. Rithanya told me that the father in charge is not cooperating well. You take him into custody and try getting information from him. But keep it secret. We don''t want to rm our opponents. Do whatever you can to solve this before this issue attracts media attention." "Ok, Yadav. You be safe too. The attack on you must have been them. They know you are not going to give up. They know you are going to be a problem." "Will do, Ashok. Thank you!" "Ok da. Bye!" So, there is problem. Police department have their limitations. I cannotpletely rely on them. I called up Micheal, a low profile man. Underworld Mafia. But good at getting things done. "Mike, Yadav here." "Yes sir. What can I do for you?" Crisp on point. "I want you to check out this orphanage. There is some illegal organ trafficking going on. I want people and proof. I will give you 10 days for it. I want results ASAP." "Ok sir." "It''s very confidential. Police are also on it. Be careful. I''m getting another call. Will talk to youter." I disconnected the call to see who that disturbance was. Can''t they stop calling when they hear I''m busy? Illiterate. Ha it''s her. I know she is a disturbance. I called her back. "What the hell do you want? Can''t you see I''m busy?" I yelled right away. "Hey. You have my number already?" she squealed on the other end. Shit! "Pch, Cut the crap. What do you want now?" "Why did you pay that twokhs for us?" "I don¡¯t know what you are talking about." I knew she would guess right away. "Oh really? Ok, Tell me, Who else is going to attend that interview on Friday?" She guessed that too. "What interview? you are wasting my time. I don¡¯t know." "Ok, There is no interview in your office this friday?" "Look, Who do you think I am? Some manager, who set up interviews? Or human resources? I''m the damn boss of my office. I have many offices and many businesses. Which one are you talking about? " I put up my hard facade. She couldn''t know that I''m doing this for her. It hurts my ego! "Don''t shout, Yash. We will repay the amount you gave us. We will attend the interview in your office. I called you to say a thank you. Bye!" She hung up. She is upset. She is angry. Why does it bother me? Whatever, I have more important things to attend to than thinking about this stupid girl! Akshu''s PoV Since we have nothing better to do, I asked aunty to take us to that orphanage she was talking about. Kavi is notpletely out of that incident. I keep on catching her in trance and crying all the time. I know it¡¯s hard to get past it. But we may not see the people we know in our office again. I mean it''s a probability. But still she needs a distraction to let go of it. We are now waiting for aunty to pick us up for the home. It took all of me to make her ept to go out to that orphanage. I am totally bored sticking in the same room for the past week. I couldn''t stop her crying, I couldn''t make her forget. I am of no help to her. I couldn''t see her like this. It''s Thursday today. We went to a pawn shop yesterday, pledged our jewels and got Rs.75000. The mechanic said a very little amount for my scooty. So, we dropped the idea of selling my scooty. We are short of akh and 25000. Oops! Yash is very rude. He yelled at me through the phone when I called him to say thanks. He spoke like he was unaware of anything that was happening. But I feel there is more. He doesn''t want me to know that he is doing it for me. EGOIST. When he yelled, I got angry too. I said we will give that money to him. But we don¡¯t have enough to give him. We should ask for an installment option. "Hi girls. Get in. I told the orphanage that we wille by 10.30." Aunty opened the car door for us. "We will reach by 10.30 aunty. Don''t worry. We are so eager to meet the kids." I said hurriedly to compensate for moody Kavi. "Why didn''t you both go to the office today?" "um... we don''t feel like it, aunty. Besides, I don¡¯t like the work culture in that office. We are attending an interview in anotherpany tomorrow." I told her. We didn''t tell anything to aunty. I didn''t tell that Yash is aunt''s son to Kavi. Too many secrets. I don''t know how long I can withhold these secrets. "Oh, Not even 2months now and you are ready to jump out?" aunty asked. "um...aunty, It''s actually because of me. My manager is very flirty. I couldn''t tolerate him. That is why we are attending this interview." Kavi said when she felt that I ran out of reasons. "Oh, my bad. But dear, what will you do if someone in the new office behaves the same? You should fight back, Kavya!" We kept quiet. We know she is right. But she doesn''t know what our real problem is. The main idea of going to the home is to divert Kavi from this matter. So, I started talking about all irrelevant things to aunty until we came to the orphanage . Once in, aunty was greeted like a queen. Everyone was gathered in their prayer hall. Aunty gave them a little speech about how she is going to help them. She also introduced us to everyone as teachers. There are many kids. Everyone should be between kindergarten and 8th standard. Kavi looked pleased to see the kids. We all dispersed after our introduction. The father there, took us on a tour of the home. When we were looking at the dining hall, a little girl pulled my dress from behind. I kneeled down to talk to her. She must be 6 or 7years old. So beautiful. "Hi there! Do you want something?" "Teacher, What will you teach us? Will you beat us?" She asked with wide eyes. "A, My name is Akshitha. You can call me ''Akka'' (sister). I will teach you hand crafts, dance, farming and anything you like to know. I won¡¯t beat you." "So, you will not teach us with books?" she had a wide smile on her face now. Adorable! "Haha, No dear. What''s your name?" "Varnika" she said. "Beautiful name. Do you know the meaning of your name?" She shook her head in a No! "Varnika means a girl with beautiful colors. You can make your world colorful." I told her. She smiled at me lovingly. When I look behind, aunty and Kavi are long gone. Varnika pulled my hands to another direction. I went along with her. She took me to a dorm. There were many girls talking when we entered. The whole room went silent as they saw me. Awkward! The little girl took me to thest bed where another girl in her teen age was lying. She looks sick."Akka, she is Ananya. Our big sister here. She is very sick. So, she didn¡¯te to the prayer hall. She wanted to see you." Varnika told me. I sat near that girl on her bed. She opened her eyes and looked at me. "Hi Ananya, I''m Akshitha. I will visit you every weekend and will teach you all the things that I know. How are you feeling dear? Did you go to a doctor?" I asked her. She held my hand in her hand and looked at me with pleading eyes. "Akka, Please save me. Save everyone here. They took me and Nandini, another girl who was here untilst week, to a medical camp. They took some blood samples and checkups. They gave some injections to us. I heard them talking. They said Nandini''s blood is very rare. They kept her there and sent me back here. But father told everyone that Nandini got a job and she won¡¯te here anymore. When I went and asked father, he said she had joined them as a helper. I highly doubt that akka. Many girls went like this and never came back. I''m feeling terribly sick now. But the doctor came here, said I have a fever. Please akka. Help me. Help us!" she said. Due to the long speech, she was breathing hard. I don''t know what I should do now. But I have to do something. This is big. I asked for the details of the doctor who said she had a fever. I also asked for the name of the medical camp. This has to be taken to the police station. Something is not right here. Chapter 28: 28. The Complaint Chapter 28: 28. The Comint Yadav''s PoV Mike gave me a list of employees of the orphanage on whom he suspects. There are 4 people. One among them is the father. He also gave me the name of the regr doctor who visits the home. I called Pranesh, My best friend. He is a doctor. He might know about this doctor. "Hey Pranesh. Busy now?" "Nope, Yadav. I know you won¡¯t call me unless it''s important." "Yes, I want to know about a doctor working in MJ hospitals. His name is Bji." "Mmmm I don¡¯t know any Bji da. What is he specialized in?" "No idea. Can you gather some information with what I gave you?" "That''s not a problem da. I will call you once I get some details on him." "Thanks, da!" "So, you are not going to tell me what this is about?" He asked. "Later man." "Ok! Bye da!" "Bye" Ok, So, he doesn¡¯t know anything about that doctor. Dr. Bji might be a general physician. I called Mike to give me this doctor''s detailed report. I''m now heading to my private jet to Japan. I have a business deal to finish there. I will be here on friday. Yeah. That is why I asked Shiva to fix the interview on friday. I got a call from Joshua. God, What has she done now? "Yes, Joshua." "Sir, Madam is in R2 police station with your mom and her friend." He said. "Why now? Are they alright?" "Yes sir. Everyone is alright. They went to ''Annai Home''. Your mom took them there. From there they came straight to the police station, sir." SHIT! "Just keep trailing behind, Joshua. I will check on them." "Yes, sir." God! Why did mom go there today? That too along with Shia. I don¡¯t know if she looks for trouble or trouble looks for her. Either way, she gives me a headache. "Dei Ashok, I''m heading to Japan now. I will be back in a day. Looks like my mom along with 2 other girls went to R2 station. They might haveined about the home. Look into it and make sure they don¡¯t get into any trouble." I told him. "Ok da, I will see what they have. If they have any proof or lead, I can use them." "NO, NO Ashok. Don''t involve them in anything. Just make sure they are out of trouble until Ie!" I disconnected him and called up Mike to hurry whatever he was doing. I called up Joshua to be on constant watch. I don''t think, with so much in mind, I can finish the deal sessfully. I hate her! She is aplete intrusion! Akshu''s PoV I gathered any and every detail Ananya knew. "Dear, don''t talk about it to anyone. Be as usual. I truly hope you just have a fever and your friend Nandini joined as a helper. But if in case it¡¯s not true, then we don¡¯t want to rm the bad guy. Stay low. I will make sure to take this to the police." I told her and went in search of Kavi and Aunty. They were talking to little kids. Kavi has all smiles on her face. So, this visit does serve its purpose. But also added some responsibility. "Aunty, shall we leave?" I asked her. "Why, Akshu? Kavi just said that we will eat lunch with them." Aunty said. I hate to pop the bubble of happiness Kavi found. "Kavi, we will do it next time. Aunty please, we have to go." I don''t know what to tell them toe along. "Are you ok, Akshu? Where have you been so long?" Kavi asked me, getting back to her old self after a long week. "Pch, I want to go to pg now. I have some work toplete." I told her. "Ok, Akshu. We will leave." Aunty said, a little disappointed. I can handle herter. She will understand my behavior, once she knows the reason. Once in the car, I told them everything. They both looked as rmed as me. I have this gut feeling; something is not right. "Aunty, we should go to the police station now. I know the medical camp name and who took them there. I know their regr doctor''s name. He works in MJ hospitals. If we give these details, I think the police can find out about that other girl Nandini." "Yes, Akshu. But Yadav has just adopted this home. I think we should tell him first." Aunty said. "You tell him, aunty. But we will make it aint. We have to act fast aunty. If it''s notte, we can still save Nandini. Also, we should get Ananya checked with a good doctor. Her condition is not good, either." I urged her. Finally, aunty agreed, and we went to the police station to make aint. All the while, Kavi didn''t say a word. Her mood swings. I can talk to her after settling this issue.Once in the police station, I ran in to get help. The Inspector asked any one of us toe in. So, I went in to tell him the details. "Hello sir, my name is Akshitha. We are here to make aint on Annai Home." "Ok, What is yourint? How do you know about that ce?" "um... our friend is a regr visitor there. She also gives many donations. We went there today with her. I saw a girl there, very sick. The kids there said she was sick after she returned from a medical camp. Another girl named Nandini, who went along with her, didn¡¯t return to the home. The regr doctor who visits the home is Dr. Bji from MJ hospitals. He is the one that referred to this medical camp. The kids didn¡¯t know the ce where it was held. But the name of the medical camp is BSD Medical camp. The father of this home sent 2 girls to this camp. Helpers Aarumugam and Sahul took them to that ce. I know only this much. Sir, I strongly feel there is something wrong. Please take this comint and act immediately on it." I told him everything I gathered from Ananya. "Ok, Give yourint in writing. Who gave you all this information? How do you know if it is not fake?" "Sorry sir, I cannot tell you who gave this information. But I know it''s not false information. Please act on myint ASAP, sir. We might save a girl''s life." I told him. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. I watch too many movies where most of the policemen work for bad guys. I don¡¯t know this inspector. So, it''s better to y safe. It''s actually good that they didn¡¯t let all of us in. That way aunty is out of it. So is Yash! Aunty dropped us in our pg after warning us to be safe. Kavi is so silent. "Hey, Kavi. What happened to you again? You were happy back in the orphanage. Why are you so silent?" I asked her. I am tired of her being gloomy all day. "Have you ever hidden things from me, Akshu?" her tone was aplete silence. That is what is giving me creeps. "What are you talking about? Just ask me straight." "I don¡¯t even know if I can ask you anything. Am I still your friend?" "Pch, Kavi, Just ask me straight." I told her. "Is Yadav, aunty''s son? Have you met him already? What is the rtionship between you two? Why did you hide things from me?" Oops, So, this is why Kavi stopped talking. She sunk in the information correctly when aunty said she had to inform Yadav first. Ok, Time to tell her the truth. I finished telling her our encounters except for the fact that I proposed to him. Hehe, she will kill me you see. My phone rang, helping me out of Kavi''s clutch. That''s Jamin uncle. Oops, I forgot to call him. It''s been weeks since we spoke. Poor uncle. Chapter 29: 29. Accident? Chapter 29: 29. ident? Akshu''s PoV "Hello, uncle. How are you?" "Still alive! I''m still looking for a girl who said she will talk to me every other day." "Sorry, uncle. It''s kinda hectic week for me. So, what''s new, uncle?" "It''s ok dear. Nothing''s new. I have decided to stay in the mansion itself. The man who bought our mansion has started remodeling it, so that he can rent it out as rooms to tourists. I spoke to him on Monday to tell him that I would take his offer. He said he will allot a room for me downstairs." "Wow uncle. That''s great news. I''m so happy uncle. So, nothing will be changed when Ie home. I can still see you." I said happily. This is by far the happiest news I have heard sincest week. "Haha you can. He has appointed a servant maid to cook for the workers here. She is now cooking for me too. The mansion is filled with people, Akshu. It''s so nice." I could feel a refreshment in his voice. Good for him. "I¡¯m so d uncle. I should really meet this nameless person. Is he a celebrity uncle? Why does he not want to reveal his identity?" "Sorry dear. " "Haha, clever uncle. It''s ok. I will investigate when I get there." "Haha, sure. I need some help from you dear." "oh,e on uncle. Tell me what you want me to do." "Emily ising to Chennai tomorrow. She has a photo shoot for some modelling. Can you let her stay with you for two days dear? She will go back on saturday." "Um... I have to ask the pg manager, uncle. If she allows, I have no problem in having Eli for two days." "Thank you, dear. Will you ask your pg manager and let me know?" "Hold on uncle. I will ask her right away." I put the call on hold and ran down to see the manager. I exined the situation to her, and she agreed to let Eli stay with Rs.1000 for 2days. "Uncle, I will take care of your granddaughter. No problem." I told him. "Thank you, dear. Send me your address, I will ask her toe straight to your ce." "Sure uncle. Will send you now." "Ok dear. Call me when you are free." "Ok, uncle, See ya." Ok, So 2days with Eli. Hard, but manageable. I wish she won¡¯t fight with me. I mean we are grownups. Kavi will have a greatpany toe out of her misery. Once Eli starts talking, Kavi will think of only escaping. "Kavi, My friend Emily wille tomorrow. She will stay with us for 2 days. She is Jamin uncle''s granddaughter." "Ok, I have no issues. So, what''s between you and Yadav?" She asked me in a strict tone. "Um...nothing between me and Yadav." "This interview is for you right?" "No, He doesn''t even know that his office is hiring." I told her even though I highly doubt what he said. "Oh, He is a good man. He saved you 3 times. Ofcourse, thest danger is because of me!" She started sulking again. I just wish I could kill Vishwa and erase his existence. "He is a good man. Stop your self-pity. You are not the reason for anything that happened. Stop thinking about him Kavi." "Akshu, I had feelings for him. The way he spoke to me, he saw me, his care. Nothing was true? But I felt everything was genuine. I feel so betrayed.¡± She cried and I could do nothing but console her and make her sleep. But I''m not sleepy yet. I''m very disturbed about the home and Nandini. I hope she is safe. How can I check on the progress the police made? Should go to the police station tomorrow to know about it. I slowly drifted to sleep when my phone rang. What time is it? 11.30pm! Who could be at this hour? I picked up the phone. "Hello! Who is it?" "Akshitha, Em here." "Hey, Eli. How are you?" "Don''t irritate me. I''m on the way to Chennai. Come and pick me up at Central Railway station at 9.30am. Don¡¯t forget and sleep." She said, how rude! "You have my address. Get a cab. I have to go to the office." "Pch, Don''t y around Akshitha. If you don''te on time, I will tell Thatha(grandpa) that you were mean to me." "Seriously, Eli? Uncle won¡¯t believe what you say. I wille. Just this one time. That too for uncle." R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Good girl. Bye." "Bye!" This girl. She started even beforeing here. How the hell are we going to put up with her for two days? I told my uncle that I will take care of her. Just two days. I can manage. I dozed off; I don''t know when. Shalu''s PoV Yadav is not in the country. He doesn¡¯t like disturbing his work. He wille in 2 days. I should tell him once hees home. But about that sick girl in the orphanage, I should do something quick. I called Pranesh. "Pranesh, How are you, son?" "Aunty, I''m too good. What''s up aunty? Is everything alright?" "Pranesh, I want some help from you. I want you to go and check on a girl named Ananya in Annai Home. I will let the father know that you wille. When can you go? The sooner the better." "Um.. sure aunty. I can go today evening." "I think she is very sick. Diagnose what is wrong with her and let me know." "Ok aunty." I informed Akshu about this. She was the one who worried very much. I truly think it''s nothing to worry about. That girl might have said something out of fear. But it''s better to check it out than to feel sorry later. Yadav''s PoV A one day trip to Japan is aplete pack. No time for rxation. A full-on run. Japan is 3.30hrs ahead of India. So, when I reached there after some 8hours flight, it was almost midnight. Some sleep, a brisk morning with a factory tour that I''m going to purchase, a meeting with my sellers here, document signing and take off to India. I can reach India on Friday at noon if everything goes ording to schedule. My day went as per n. The factory, though is not as captive as the pictures they sent me, is good. I should rece some machinery. Other than that, everything is in working condition. It''s just a title transfer. So, the factory would be running as usual. I hired every management person who was working there already. I appointed my man as the chief there. I signed the documents and everything went well and smooth. It''s my many days of work that made this a sessful venture. I should be happy now. But the happiness didn''t reach my heart. Everyone wanted a party and I was in no mood for a party but still agreed. It was alreadyte in the night. When I was getting ready for the party at 11pm, My phone pinged with a message. It was from Joshua! What now? I opened it and got rmed. It just said ''Emergency, Call me Asap!'' I called him immediately. My mind raced with thoughts. I am trembling in fear for what I''m going to hear. My heart beats go wild. I instantly knew something was wrong. He picked up at thest ring. "Joshua! Is she alright?" I asked him. "Sir, she met with an ident. Hit and run. I''m now in MJ hospitals. She was unconscious when I brought her. She had her helmet on, so no head injury. But she was bleeding from her stomach and leg. Something poked her stomach. I''m waiting outside now. Doctors are yet to tell on her condition." He said. I now know why my happiness didn¡¯t reach my heart. The sudden urge to hold her close to my heart is growing by the second. "Be with her. I will be there as soon as possible. She will be fine. Ping me once the doctorse out. I know some people in that hospital. I will talk to them. Be with her, Joshua. She will be fine. She should be fine!" I told, more to myself. SHE WILL BE FINE! Nothing will happen to her! I called up the Dean of MJ hospitals. Chapter 30: 30. His Care Chapter 30: 30. His Care Yadav''s PoV I wasted no time after that call. I cancelled my ns and asked the pilot to prepare for take-off ASAP. In the next hour I was in the air. I called the dean through my satellite phone. "Doc, how is she?" "Mr.Yadav, she is not in critical condition. Don''t panic. She has a fracture on her left leg femur. Something very sharp has punctured her stomach near lungs. But luckily it didn''t harm any internal organs. She has lost so much blood, so she is still unconscious. She needs a little operation to fix her fractured leg. A month of bed rest will bring her back to normal." The doctor said. I felt relieved. The suffocation I was having inside my heart is now no more. I just want to see her. Keep her in my protective hands. "Thank you, Doc. Go ahead with the operation. I will be there in another 6hours." "Mr. Yadav, we need signatures from an immediate rtive to perform this surgery. Who is she by the way?" "Listen doc, She is... um... She is my responsibility. I will sign any and every paper when Ie there. Now don¡¯t wait for the surgery. Make her alright." I told him. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Ok Mr. Yadav. I will ask them to go ahead with the surgery. She will be awake when youe here" "I want your best doctors on her." "Sure Mr. Yadav." I rxed. Who is she?! What is she doing to me? Why am I behaving like this? I have strong feelings towards her. This is no good! Once the doctor told me she would be alright, I called Joshua to investigate the vehicle that hit her. He already told me that it was a red scorpio. I don¡¯t know, but I want that driver dead or alive when Ind. I made Joshua call Kavi to be with her. It''s safe that way. I still have another hour to reach Chennai. I called Joshua again to check on her. "How is she? The surgery is done?" "The surgery is done, sir. She is in the recovery room. Still unconscious. Her mother came. I''m just keeping an eye from afar. I get the updates from the doctor. I also told the doctors not to mention your name." "Good! I will be there in 2hrs. Do something and get her mom out of that ce. I have to see her." "Will try, sir. She looks devastated. I don¡¯t think she will move from that spot." "Ask the doctors to tell her something. Make her go out for at least 10 or 15mins." I am desperate to see her and I don''t like it, not one bit. "Sure, sir. Akshitha is fine. Don''t worry, sir." "Thanks, Joshua. I''m d you were there for her at the right time." "Nope, sir. You pay me for this. It''s you who saved her at the right time." He said. "See you soon, Joshua." I hung up on him. I waited impatiently for thending. The urge to see her is driving me crazy. The connection we had from the first meeting till now is growing every second. The push inside me to protect her from harm''s way is getting stronger. She calls it LOVE! I call it.... whatever! I cannot marry her. She deserves a good man with good moral values. Not me. Until her, I used girls as sex toys. I have never seen them as souls with life. A girl as pure as her needs a man who is as pure as her. Besides, I don¡¯t want marriage. I hatemitments. I mean what if I get bored with her after some time? I cannot live a boring life. But how did I feel there was something wrong even before Joshua''s message? What is that? Telepathy? Did she reach out to me at her distressed time? Are we on the same wavelength? Will I ever get bored of her? Too many questions! These can wait for answers. I need to go see her now. See her pretty face. Make sure she is alright. I should make arrangements for her pick-up and drop off. She should not drive anymore. I should have done that soon after our first encounter. Akshu''s PoV I was hit by a big car when I went to pick up Eli. I saw a man rush to my help. He called me by my name. He patted my cheeks continuously calling out my name to keep me conscious until the ambnce arrived. Who is he? How did he know me? The next thing I remember is this moment. Yash brushing his finger on my face sitting very close to me. I am now trying to open my eyes. I know it''s him. I know his scent. When I was about to open my eyes, I heard him talk. I stopped trying. I want to hear what he is going to say. If I open my eyes, he may stop! "Hey loosu, Wake up soon. You are scaring me. You have been unconscious for more than 8hours now. I have very little time. Your mom wille any minute now. Open your eyes and look at me. No more driving. Don¡¯t do things which you don''t know. Why do you always get in trouble? You are making me insane, Shia! Why the hell did you go out today!? I don¡¯t know what I feel towards you. But I won¡¯t ept it as love." "What else is this called Yash!? Just ept it." I spoke. He immediately withdrew his hands from me and stood up. His face showed no emotions. Huh, There he goes again. "What the hell were you doing on the roads today? You have no office. For god¡¯s sake, Can''t you stay in your pg?" He shouted at me. "What did you call me Yash? Shia? Mmm I love that name." "Shut up!" "Pch, I went to pick up my friend from the railway station. How will I know that I will get hit by a car today?" I am tired of him being grumpy. "Why did you go by bike if you don¡¯t know how to drive?" He asked me seriously. He thinks that I don¡¯t know how to drive my bike? "Please, Yash. Talk to me nicely. See, I''m already very tired. It hurts so much. I will cry if you yell at me!" I showed my pity face. "God, You are ok. Just a little fracture on your left leg. A month of bed rest is a must. You will be fine." he said with a little voice. A he is cute being embarrassed. "Mmmm Yash, a man helped me to get me to hospital. He knows my name, Yash. And the Annai Home has some problems, Yash. Something is wrong around me." I told him that was burdening my heart. "I know. Don¡¯t worry about it. Just take rest and get well soon." He left the room after a long pause. His eyes told me everything I wanted to know from him. His tired eyes and his business attire showed me he came running to me. I can make him confess his feelings to me. The fear I had so long just melted away with just his ''I Know''! He will take care of everything. Oops! Eli? I tried to look for my phone when Kavi and my mom came in. Chapter 31: 31. He Is Not Worth It! Chapter 31: 31. He Is Not Worth It! Sumathi''s PoV I almost had a heart attack when I got a call from Kavya saying Akshu is in hospital because of the ident. Her father left us all alone in an ident too. Is this a curse on me? But I felt a little relieved when Kavya said she had a hairline fracture on her leg and nothing else. I immediately booked a cab and came to Chennai. I came straight to this hospital. I felt a little better when the doctor told me that Akshu ispletely fine. Her scan and x-ray reports arepletely normal. This little fracture is settled by this surgery. The doctor said she can start walking after 15days. The nurse working here is very kind. She has been seeing me since the afternoon, I have not eaten or moved from this ce. Akshu is still sedated. She is in the recovery room. I am yet to see her. The nurse came to me and asked me to go and have something for dinner. She also said there is a little Vinayagar (Ganesh) temple outside. She is right, I need energy to take care of Akshu. When I came back, Kavya also came from her pg. I sent her back to givepany to Emily. Akshu was awake when we went in."Akshu! How are you feeling dear?" I ran to her. "Ma, I''m ok. Please don¡¯t cry. Just a little fracture on my leg. I will be fine." "How did it happen? You have to be more careful, Akshu. No more scooty in Chennai." "Ma, Enough. I already had an ear-full." "From whom? " Kavya asked. "um... from the doctor." Akshu said. "Akshu, the doctor said you need at least 2 weeks rest before you start walking. Ask for leave from your office. You will have medical leave right?" I asked her. Akshu and Kavya shared a look before Akshu answered me. "Ma, We do have medical leave. I will send an email to my lead. No problem. I don''t think the pg manager will allow you to stay there. You go back to Coonoor ma. Kavi will take care of me!" She told me. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "What? I''m not going to leave you here and go. You areing with me to Coonoor. You cane back here after you get better." "Ma." "No more arguments." I stopped her from talking when the nurse came. "Hello, Akshitha. How are you feeling?" The nurse asked her. "Hi, sister. I''m good." "You still have the effects of anesthesia. You will feel a sharp pain on your leg when it wears off. Here, this is the painkiller. Take one when your pain is between 8 and 10 on a scale of 10. Take half when the pain is between 5 and 8. No medication if it''s less than 5. No other medicines Akshitha. You will mostly be discharged tomorrow." "Thank you, sister." Akshu told her. "Thank you so much sister. You took very good care of my daughter. Can you help me to pay the bill amount? No one has talked to me about that." "Akshitha has no dues, madam." The nurse told me. "What? I have not paid for anything yet." "um...Ma, Our office had insurance. They would have imed. I will talk to them. You take a rest, ma." Akshu stopped me from further questioning. Akshu''s PoV Whoa, That was a close call. This Yash is too much. Who asked him to pay the bills? I already have to give him twokhs. Now this hospital bill amount is added. I feel totally guilty for epting money from him when he clearly denies his feelings for me. I have topromise Mom to let me stay here for the next 2 weeks. I cannot go, leaving Kavi alone here. It''spletely not safe for her. Besides, I cannot live far away from Yash. The feeling of him being in the same city as I''m is very blissful. I''m now starting to feel the pain the nurse was talking about. I took the pain killer she gave me and it slowly drifted me to sleep. Kavya''s PoV There is something going on between Akshu and Yadav. She is hiding it from me. I clearly know that it''s him who paid the hospital bill. Akshu is good at driving. She is not a careless girl while driving. This ident is not her fault. It''s pure luck that the sharp thingy didn''t poke her deep. It would be fatal if her internal organs had been damaged. Thank God, I have her phone. Shalu aunty has been calling her since morning. I don''t know what to tell her. So I didn''t pick her call. Akshu drifted to sleep and I started to go to our pg. The hospital allows only one attender to the patient. When I was waiting for a cab, I saw him. Vishwa! He was with someone. Ady. Looks like she is sick. His mother may be. A bitter feeling surrounded my heart and I felt nauseous. I truly don''t know what I am feeling now. But definitely not anger. I rooted him deep in my heart that I could not pull him out that soon or that easily. I could not take my eyes off him. My heart longs for him. I try hard to remember what a low life he is. But my stupid heart still needs his warm talks and smile towards me. He was waiting too. Some man came with his car and he settled thatdy in the car and went into the hospital again. That lady called for him when he was long gone. She tried to get down and stumbled. I ran to help her and got her on time. "Thank you so much dear. I wanted to tell my son to bring my bag that I left on the reception desk." "It''s ok aunty. Please be careful." I helped her sit inside. "Take care aunty. bye!" I wanted to leave this ce soon before he got back. I am not yet ready to face him or confront him. But when I turned to leave, I dashed on him. "Sorry," he said. The intense look he has is making me breath hard. I cannot handle him. I just ran away. I stood outside the Vinayagar temple waiting for the damn cab, when I heard him call me from behind. "Kavya!" I dare not to turn to look at him. He came close to me and called me again. "Kavya, I know you will be angry. But don''t just believe whatever happened blindly. There may be another side to the story. Anyways I''m sorry for what you have been through." What is he trying to tell me? His voice is so heavy. It carries true emotions. Or at least that is what I feel. He is very good at acting. Why is he still pretending? Was he not done with me yet? What is he nning now? I no longer hear him. When I turned to see, he was long gone. My cab came and I left for my pg. Yadav''s PoV Joshua made the nurse help me to get her mom out of there. My heart was thumping so loud when I saw her. The ever bubbly and talkative girl wasying on the bed with her stomach and leg bandaged. She has be a part of me. Why else would I feel the pain? But I know this is so wrong. I strongly believe that she is in danger because of me. I don''t know if this really was an ident. But if it''s not, then she is in real trouble. I should always be by her side. I gave the details of the ident to Ashok and Mike. I want that bastard. I don''t mind who ever brings him to me. I got the details of theint Shia made from Ashok and gave them to Mike. "Get the info and kill them Mike. Clean up the mess. If they are involved willfully then they are not worth living." "I will get a hold of the helpers tonight, sir. Will give you information tomorrow morning." "Don''t wait, Mike. Call me any time." "Yes sir." "Also work and find the car that caused the ident!" "On it sir!" I''m feeling so restless now. Everything around us is like a loose end. No information on the girl that went missing from the Home. I hope it''s not toote to save her. I don''t know what else I can do. That number!? The unknown man spoke to me, I called Ashok to know about it. "Ashok! Whose number is that? From whom did I get that call on the day of the acid attack?" "That''s a dead end, Yadav. It was bought a day before with the proof of a dead man." "Shit! Do something, Ashok. Soon." "We are trying, Yadav. They are very clever. Don''t worry. We are on it!" "What about that ident?" "Yadav, that''s really an ident. Nothing like you anticipate." "How do you know that?" "Yadav, Don''t connect everything. Who is that girl by the way?" "Ashok!" "Ok ok! Get a good night''s sleep, Yadav. You need rest." "I need people who did this, Ashok." "Come on, man. Rest! I will give something tomorrow for sure." I disconnected him while entering my home. My mom was sitting there with a sad face. What happened to her? "Ma!?" "Yadu, Where were you dear? I was worried. Akshu has not picked up the call since morning. I''m really worried for her." She told me everything about the home and theint. Now I should answer her questions about Shia. She has be inseparable! Chapter 32: 32. A Get-Away? Chapter 32: 32. A Get-Away? Akshu''s PoV It''s been a week and 3 days since I came to Coonoor. Mom didn''t even nudge a bit for my pleas. She was so stubborn to bring me back home. We were discharged the day after Yash came to meet me. We went to the pg and collected some important stuff and started to Coonoor along with Emily. She insisted that she woulde. I''m grateful that she didn''t talk throughout the journey. I really felt very bad leaving Kavi behind. She cannot stay alone there. She is not yet healed from that heart ache. If I am right, she knew in her heart that the porn site is not a problem anymore. But she is stuck with Vishwa. I truly don''t understand how she can possibly have feelings for him even after so many things. I called Shalu aunty to inform about this incident and about me going to Coonoor for 2 weeks. But then aunty already knew about my ident. She advised me to go along with mom to get a proper rest. Yash must have told her. I asked her to keep an eye on Kavya. Kavya insisted that I go too. She said she will be a good girl. If everything was normal, I would be attending my interview on the day I travelled to Coonoor. I really miss Yash. I pinged him with a message when we were in the car to Coonoor. ''Do I still get that job in your office?'' I waited so long but no reply. I felt so sad. But I know he is a head strong man. My phone pinged with mail. I opened it to see an appointment order from Yash. Not from Yash himself but from Yash''s office. "What''s the happy news, Akshu?" Eli asked me. She was sitting near me in the car. "um... I got an offer from Yadav Rishid''s office. As a software developer." I told her. "oh, I actually came to Chennai for an ad photo shoot for his cosmetic product." she said. "Oh!" "Did you attend the interview, Akshu? But why?" mom asked me. "um...We attended it long back ma. I just got the joining order now. I''m thinking of switching." I said. "Why Akshu? You have a bond signed with thispany for a year, remember?" "Um...if we switch, the new office will take care of it ma. This is a very good offer. Please!" "Ok ok, Let''s talk about thister. Now get some sleep. We still have 3more hours to reach." My mom cut me off. With that we reached our home. I called up Kavi to check if she got an email too. But she said no. ''For Kavi?'' I messaged him again. No reply. But I know I will get a call from Kavi. And it did. "Akshu, They rescheduled the interview for tomorrow. I''m going to attend. What will you do?" Kavi squealed on the phone. "You attend. I will call the HR department and ask if they can do a telephonic or zoom interview." I told her. "That''s a good idea. Do it fast. Ok, I''m going to prepare. Bye, Take rest ande soon". She disconnected the call. Crazy girl. She will get in no matter what. But it is good that she is diverted in preparing for the interview, that way she won''t be stuck with Vishwa. It''s getting very boring here. Jamin uncle visits me every morning. He will y chess and ludo with me. Manoj and Rahul visit me every evening after their college. I now know how Jamin uncle would be feeling all alone in that big mansion. Eli didn''t go back to Mumbai. She stayed with uncle. Good for him. But never once did shee to look at me. I''m notining. I tried calling Yash but he never picked my calls. Shalu aunty and Aravind uncle talk to me every day. Whenever I ask about Yash, they say either he is busy or he is out. I want to see him. I want to be with him, near him! Being inside the house and having nothing to do is only intensifying the love I have for him. His picture on my wall is my only vent. Waking up looking at him and going to sleep looking at him is like heaven. The feelings I have for him are too strong. I should make a move on him, I cannot withhold it any longer. With that I fell asleep. Yadav''s PoV Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. Mike gave me the details of the owner of the car that caused the ident. I asked him to bring that man immediately to me. But then,when that man came to me, I instantly knew he was not at fault. "Sir, This is a mistake. My car was stolenst week and I made a policeint. The police returned the car to me yesterday . They said they found it parked near a temple. Nothing in the car was taken. I truly don''t know what this is all about sir." he exined himself. Now we know that this is a nned ident. "Let him go, Mike!" The frustration of getting nowhere is killing me. Every door is a dead end. Mike caught hold of the helpers Aarumugam and Sahul. He couldn''t get any information from them except for the ce of the camp held and another ce they have taken some kids before. We went there to find nothing except for a few flyers. Nothing on that flyer was true. Dead end again. We headed to the other ce they said. It was like a bunker. Hidden ce. They are sure criminals. Mike restrained me from going with them further. He called his men and went in. After about an hour, he called me through the phone toe in. There were 2 dead men and a girl. She was lying on the bed but was still alive. We wasted no time and took her to the hospital. I called Pranesh to attend her. The other girl from the home was diagnosed with lung cancer. Her blood had some chemicals that elerates the growth of the cancer cells. She cannot be cured but we can extend her life with chemotherapy. I highly doubt the survival rate of this girl. But then Pranesh told me she was alright except that she is missing one of her kidneys. Bastards! We gave every information we knew to Ashok. They need to work faster. The father is still under police custody with no avail! Shia went with her mom. That''s safe for her. But I really miss her. She is calling me every now and then making it hard for me to dismiss her thoughts. The very wish to hear her voice is submerged with my fear of putting her in danger. Someone knew that we knew each other. The dangers target her just because I am involved in this orphanage. I should not be in touch with her. At Least until this all gets sorted. My businesses are on a growing pace. But they still need me. My trust has a big problem that has to be sorted out. I have to protect Shia. So many things going on is making me restless. "Yadav, You need rest. I''m scared to look at you. It''s been almost a week since you slept. Just go somewhere and have a break. You need it. I will take care of things here in your absence." Shiva told me. "Shiva, you know what''s going on. How can I go now?" "Yadav, The orphanage is in good hands now. The police are on it. I will look after your business for a week. Akshitha is with her mom in her hometown. We don''t even know where she is now. That way, it is safe for her. You just calm down, Yadav." "That''s a mistake, Shiva. I should have sent Joshua behind her. What if danger follows her? I didn''t think it through when she left Chennai. That time I thought if she is not connected to me, she will be safe. But that ident? That''s nned. I''m really worried. Everytime I try to get her home address you stop me saying it''s for her good." "I still say that, Yadav. Give yourself one week. Go to Coonoor. Your Mansion is now all ready with the changes you wanted . Enjoy the climate, Rx, Come as my old friend. I hate seeing you all tense and worked up." "Huh, Ok! I guess." I surrendered to him as I am very tired myself. "I will drop you in Coonoor tomorrow and wille back. Be ready by 9am tomorrow. Bye." "Bye, Shiva." A get away would be nice! Away from everything! Away from her thoughts! Chapter 33: 33. Destiny Has Other Plans Chapter 33: 33. Destiny Has Other ns Akshu''s PoV My leg is a little better now. I''m just walking indoors, slowly without help. I feel all better already. The cut on my stomach was not deep. It hurts though, but not too much to handle. Kavi is not talking to me properly. She has something in her mind that disturbs her. I''m ok as long as she is fine. She aced the interview and got in. The joining date is after a week. Ofcourse, he gives me time to get better. Lover boy. But he won''t ept it. I''m terribly missing him. I just want to hear him at least yell at me. That is how famished I am for him. Aunty told me about the girl found who went missing from the home. She also said Yash made changes in the authorities of the orphanage. Police have made some arrests too. I always knew I could rely on Yash. I know he will take care of anything and everything! "Akshu! I''m going to the fruit stall now. I will be back in 2hrs. Be a good girl. Practice walking inside, ok?" my mom said. "Ok Ma! Come soon!" Ok, So 2hours of independence. I badly wanted to get out of this home. It''s practically suffocating me. I decided to go to uncle''s mansion. I just feel like dipping my feet in the swimming pool. Some corn would be nice too. But it can wait for evening. What''s fun eating alone!? I made sure mom went out and went to the backyard. Since I have the habit of climbing this wall to get through, uncle has made a sand bed on his side for me to make the jump easier. This side, there is a mango tree that touches our wall. The branches are low and easy for climbing. I slowly climbed the tree and sat on thepound wall. Oops, The sand bed is now gone. OMG, The property is not uncle''s anymore. How did I forget that? Shit! The owner is a real good man. I should not sneak into his property. But the pool is so inviting. I may break my bones if I jump from here. That''s not a wise idea. After a long thinking, I decided to go back to my home. When I was about to swing my leg to the other side of the wall, I heard a very familiar yelling! Am I hallucinating? I''m getting crazy! I see him everywhere. I hear him everywhere. He is getting too much for my little heart. The weight of my love for him is just unbearable. I cannot hold it back anymore. I Love Him! Yadav''s PoV I felt at peace when I came to this mansion. The wavering of my heart settled down as if it felt Shia was safe somewhere. Strange, but true. More than anything, I was worried about her safety. I totally don''t know what makes my mind and heart calm in this mansion. The mansion renewal hase out just as I imagined. I took a tour of this ce and went to the far corner room on the first floor. That was a secluded and quiet area. I was looking out the window when I saw someone climb the tree from behind thepound wall. Just as the person emerged above the wall, I saw it was a girl. I confirmed that it''s that stupid when she carefully sat on the wall with her legs swinging on my side of the wall. She is nuts. A crack case. She has a broken bone on her leg and she is climbing a wall that is two times her height. Idiot, I ran down immediately to stop her from whatever she was nning to do. Never a dull moment with her! "Are you insane? What the hell are you doing up on the wall? Idiot! Remember you had an ident and your leg was broken? You are nning to jump? No person with a right mind would do that. Idiot! I truly think your head is hollow inside! Do you really have brains?" She was frozen on her spot. She was looking at me without even blinking her eyes. She clearly didn''t expect me here. That''s evident! So am I. I thought of getting away from her thoughts but it looked like destiny had some other ns for us. WAIT A MINUTE, WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE? She lives here? So Coonoor is her hometown? Where is she living? Is she Benjamin''s granddaughter? But why is climbing over a wall? "Hey loosu?! You are supposed to be in bed rest. What are you doing here? You live here?" I asked her, breaking her trance. She came back from mars and looked at me with mischievous eyes. "Do you go to the gym?" she asked me. "You really are a loosu. What are you doing on the wall?" "Pch, Answer me, Yash. Are you a strong man?" She asked me again which waspletely irrelevant to the current situation. "God! Yes, I am a ..." R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only She is really an insane girl. She jumped on me from the 7feet tall wall. She just jumped without any warning. I should be getting angry for her inappropriate behavior. But my heart has this weird satisfaction. Holding her in my arms, knowing she is safe just calmed my nerves. Now I know why this mansion gave me calmness. My heart knew that Shia is very near! "Are you out of your mind? What would have happened if I didn''t catch you?" "You caught me well and good. And I love this!" she threw her hands around my neck. This closeness is making my sleeping demon wake up inside of me. Her scent is making me crazy! "Are you ok? Your leg healed?" I asked her, diverting my perverted mind. "Cha, A beautiful girl in your embrace! And all you ask is about my broken leg? You are very poor in romance, Yash!" she pouted her lips at me. God, She is going to be the death of me. It took all of me to stop me from grabbing those luscious lips. What is she doing to me? She is a living hell. "Where is your home?" I asked her. She pointed her finger over the wall. So her home is just behind this wall? All I wanted was to get time away from her thoughts and here I am holding her in my arms. I put her down when I heard a screeching voice of a girl. "Hey, Akshitha. How many times do I have to tell you not to climb this wall? Hey, your leg is ok now? See you have disturbed, Yadav!" she spoke to Shia. "Hi, Yadav. I''m Emily. Benjamin is my grandpa. I''m so d that I get to meet you in person. I hope you know me. I''m the photo model for your new face cream." She introduced herself with a hug. That hug was a little too much for an intro hug. I didn''t enjoy it. But when I saw Shia, I wanted to y a game! "Hi Emily. How about I call you Em? Nice meeting you." I returned her hug and Shia''s face was red with anger. OMG, This is going to be fun! Chapter 34: 34. The Insults Chapter 34: 34. The Insults Akshu''s PoV I couldn''t believe what I saw. It''s really him. So he is the one that bought uncle''s mansion? Wow, I have admired him in every instance. Even without knowing it''s him, I liked him in every way. I always know Yash is a good man at heart. As usual, his concern for my safety was exhibited by his very same dialog. Actually I''m just used to it now. Infact, I would be feeling different if he didn''t yell at me. Did he actually know me before? I know it''s kind of a greedy wish. I now know we are meant to be together! I jumped in his hands without wasting a minute. I literally found my missing piece when I was in his hands. I saw a little distraction in his eyes when I pulled him close to me. I had butterflies in my tummy too. But I longed to see him so far. I just filled him in my heart through my eyes. This Eli is a pure disturbance. We were having a blissful time until she came in with her screeching voice. I was on the verge of killing her with my bare hands when she hugged Yash. But when he returned the hug, I wanted to kill him too. How dare he? "What is uncle doing, ELI!?" I asked her, stressing thest word. "Stop it, Akshitha. Don''t call me that. Thatha is in his room." She said. "Oh don''t worry, Em! Some people are out of fashion. Like old times, she teases you with a silly name. I really like your name, Em!" Yash told her, looking at me coldly. He will not y this game with me. He is going to feel terrible for doing this. I ignored both of them and went in to see Jamin uncle. When I went in walking slowly, uncle was sitting on the couch in the hall. His eyes grew bigger when he saw me. Yeah, I know. He didn''t expect me to walk like this. "Akshu! How did youe here? Did you jump the wall? The sand bed is not there now. God! Are you ok?" He literally jumped up from the couch and came running to me. He took my hands and walked me slowly to the couch and sat with me. "I''m fine, uncle. Your guest caught me without falling. And I found your secret." I winked at him. "Haha, sorry dear. He requested not to tell anyone. I know you will find out very soon." All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "I told you. Why didn''t youe today, uncle? Why is Eli still here?" I asked him. I don''t like her being here in the same house as Yash. "She said she has a vacation. I''m happy she is here with me. I wanted toe and see you dear. But Emily had some issues with the wifi here. So I was helping her." I felt so selfish for wanting her to go away. "oh!" Eli and Yash came in together. I wanted to strangle him to death. But then my conscience hit me hard. He always had flings. He had numerous sexual affairs before. Did that not bother me? Why am I reacting too much for just a hug with Eli? "Mr.Yadav, This is Akshitha. My dearie. She lives behind our mansion. My bestpany so far." uncle introduced me to him. "I just met her, Mr.Benjamin. Hello, Akshitha." he started with uncle and ended with me. "Hi! What are you doing, Mr.Yadav? I mean what do you do for a living?" I asked him with a challenging smile. He looked puzzled! I love that! "You mean you dont know me?" he asked me with a raised eyebrow. "Mmmm Nuh-Nah. I don''t remember you.Have we met before?¡± "No, I''m a businessman." His posture changed from casual to cold. I know I hit his ego. I wanted that. How dare he hug her in front of me? Is it ok if he does that in my absence? I don''t want to answer that question. We have an invisible thread of connection. We can''t deny it. But I don''t know what he feels about it. I for sure know that it''s love. "Oh, I see. But why didn''t you want to reveal your identity, Mr.Yadav? I don''t get it!" I spoke to him with a t tone. If he is angry, then I''m angry too. "That''s none of your business." he cut me off! "Please, Mr.Yadav. Don''t get tense. You told me that she is silly. Now I will tell you the same. Don''t take her seriously. Infact, she knows you very well. She just acts like she doesn''t know you and your fame. Maybe she is jealous that you speak to me in a more friendly manner!" Eli spoke out of nowhere. But she was right. I am behaving silly because I am jealous of her. "Akshu, You have his picture framed on your walls. Why do you talk like this, dear? It''s very inappropriate. Emily, She is not that kind of a girl to get jealous. Stop talking unwanted." uncle spoke to me in disappointment and in warning to Eli. I felt so ashamed. I should not have done this. "I willeter when you are free, uncle. Bye!" I went to the backyard without paying any attention to Yash. His gaze never left me. His prating gaze followed me to the door. But I didn''t dare to look at him. I already knew that he has a bad reputation with girls. I still love him. What do I expect him to do? To change totally for me? Then who am I loving? Love should ept anything and everything just the same, right? Is my love not true? Why do I expect him to change for me? I sat down in the swimming pool with my legs inside the water. So many questions bumped into my brain. All with no answers. Can I live with him knowing he will be with some other girls? No, I want him. I want him for myself. "Shia!" I heard him behind me. I got goosebumps when he called me. My name sounds beautiful when it rolls out of his mouth. I didn''t turn to see him. I felt ashamed to have spoken to him like that. "Shia, I''m sorry! I just wanted to pull your legs. I didn''t know she would talk like that." his voice is truly sorry. I got up from the pool and tried to go inside past him. He held my arm above my elbow and stopped me. "I''m talking to you. I don''t like people walking over me." He spoke in warning to me. "I love you, Yash. I want you. I want you for myself. You belong to me. Only me! Why are you doing this to me? I can''t bear to look at you with someone else other than me." I hugged him without adieu. He stood still. I felt him go rigid in my embrace. He is fighting with himself. But why? "You don''t like me? You don''t have feelings for me? Why are you trying to avoid me? Am I not good for you? You don''t like me because I am not rich like you? You don''t like me because I came to you? You think I''m just another girl who spent her night with you in bed? you..." I fell in the pool. He just pulled me out of him and pushed me aside. I lost my bnce and with his look on me, I think I lost him too! He has no love for me like I thought. Chapter 35: 35. Dress Her Up? Chapter 35: 35. Dress Her Up? Yadav''s PoV This Emily is a nuisance. I think Inded myself in a ditch. I cannot tolerate her talk being disrespectful to Shia. I knew Shia wanted to get back at me for pulling her leg outside when she spoke like she doesn''t know me. But Emily took advantage and spoke real mean to her. I cannot see her little face full of embarrassment. She ignored me and went out. I know she cannot go home without help. I excused myself from them and went out to see her sitting with her legs in the pool. I wanted to apologise to her for what happened. But when I did, she again went away ignoring me which made my anger shoot up. I held her elbow and warned her not to ignore me. But she did something unexpected. She hugged me. I have had this disturbance in my mind since I saw her here. Her closeness with me is driving me crazy. I now have all bad ideas about her which I have never felt with any girl before. I want to feel her. But I know I can''t do that to her. She deserves better. I wanted to stay away from her. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only But then she got all wrong about my reluctance. She thinks that I avoid her because she is not rich like me? She thinks that I''m thinking so low of her? She is something that happened to me without my knowledge. She has that power to control me. For once, I really love to be under her control. But she deserves better. I couldn''t tolerate what she said about herself and I lost my cool again. I hate myself for doing that. I turned to leave and went near the door but I can''t just leave her in the pool. I forgot about her injury. I ran to help her. "Are you alright, Shia? Here give your hand. I''m sorry, does it hurt somewhere?" I asked her, lending my hand to her. "I don''t want your help. Who are you to help me? I was mad to think that you have the same feeling I had on you. But you just pushed me away. You always do that. Everytime, it was me who came running behind you confessing my love for you. You never did. I am sorry to have bothered you. You made it so clear now that I am wrong. Just get lost!" She spoke crying. I felt guilty for doing this to her. But at the same time I could not hear her say that I''m no one to her. I know, I''m not clear in my head. I truly don''t know what I really want. I ignored her shouts and pulled her out of the pool and carried her to my room. "Let me go, Yash. I hate you. You don''t love me, right? I don''t love you either. Now let me go." she shouted when I carried her on the stairs. "Shhh! Don''t shout, Shia. Your Jamin uncle will hear." I stopped her in a low tone. "Why should he not hear? I hate you. Let him know that you hit me just because I love you!" she replied to me in a husky voice. OMG, she is so cute. "Why the hell are you smiling? Are you nuts? I''m telling you that I hate you. Idiot! Let me go." she continued in a husky voice while beating me with her tender hands on my chest. I put her down in my room and went to the wardrobe to get a change of clothes and towel for both of us. "Here, That''s the restroom. Go and change. I will drop you in your home. Go." I gave her a towel and my t-shirt and pants. "I said I don''t want your help. Are you deaf? I know how to get to my house." She refused to take the clothes from me. "Like how you came in? Idiot! Now stop arguing and go get changed." I got back to my grumpy self, she is testing my patience. "Pch, You are soplicated. You keep me away whenever Ie near you. It hurts me, Yash. You were very clear from the start to keep me away. But it''s me who gets confused. Now I know what you wish. I will go away. I won''t bother you anymore. Just open the door." she spoke with a tinge of regret. I regret it too. I may have behaved rudely to her. But I really don''t intend to do that. It''s the only way to keep her away. But when she says what I want to hear, my heart bleeds! "I said stop talking. Now go and get yourself changed into this." I told her. "Ouch!" she held her hand at the side of her stomach. "Shia, Does it hurt? Are you ok?" I ran to her. "It''s kinda burning on my boo-boo. I think it''s the pool Water." she said. "Let me see. Take your hands off." "Mhum, No." she pulled her shirt down more. She is in her skirt and blouse. Her skirt reached her knees. She ispletely soaked in water, showing off her curves and bumps. Her clothes made me see her inappropriate when she was sitting on the compound wall. I was fighting with myself not to make a move on her but she was making it hard. But now, I''m in no mood. I''m worried for her. It''s all my fault that she is in pain now. The way she pulled her shirt down is aplete insult to me. I''m not a womanizer. At Least I won''t do that to her. I value her. "Pch, I''m not a pervert. I want to help." I pushed her down on the bed and lifted her shirt up to see the bandage. "Go and get changed. I will bring a new bandage. I have a first aid box. I will dress you up!" "What? I''m not a kid. I know how to dress myself." She said, rmed. I wanted tough at her. "Idiot, I said I will dress up your wound." I yelled at her. She picked up the clothes I gave her and ran in the restroom. I let out augh at her silly behaviour. But what she proposed was hot stuff. So far, never once have I seen her or thought about her inappropriately. But from the time I saw her here, I couldn''t stop myself from thinking bad stuff about her. I changed myself in the room and waited for her. It''s almost half an hour since she went in. "How long? Are you ok? Do you need any help?" I asked her. "I don''t want your help. You go out and close your eyes. I will go to my home myself." "Pch, Don''t y around, Shia. Come out." "Close your eyes." She demanded. "How will I dress you if I close my eyes?" "Dress my wound, you mean?" God, She is making it very difficult for me to stay sane. I totally want to feel her against me. "I have a way to open the lock from outside. Just open up, Shia!" "Aiyo, Please, Yash. I feel weird wearing your dress." "That''s ok. I won''tugh." I reassured her. "God, I have no inner wears. I... um.. I feel shy toe out in front of you." she whisper yelled.She is going to be the death of me! Chapter 36: 36. First Kiss? Chapter 36: 36. First Kiss? Akshu''s PoV I never expected him toe to me like a ball from a wall. He pulled me out of the pool dodging all my protests and carried me to his room. I won''t lie, I enjoyed every second in his hands. He was getting wet from me. I mean his dress was getting wet! I could feel his muscles bulging under his shirt. But I am angry. He always takes up so much advantage on me but yet denies everything. I don''t know what I said triggered him this time. My stupid heart is melting in his hands but my mind tells me to jump out and run in the opposite direction for he is disrespecting my feelings in every instance. But I know, I can''t do that. After all, I know his concern for me. Something is stopping him. He gave me his clothes to change. My heart made somersaults in happiness. Being in the same room as his and getting to wear his clothes, I already feel like his wife. But I put on an act like I''m totally disinterested. Yeah. I have to take care of my image, you know. I felt an irritation on my stomach where they have stitched the wound. I reacted to it and he ran to my side. I said it''s my wound that hurts. I saw a true guilt in his face as he apologised again. Poor him! WAIT! What? He wants to see my boo-boo? My wound that was on the side of my stomach? He wants me to lift up my shirt for him? No way. I felt too shy to show him my privates. Hey, don''t look at me like that. Anything that is covered in clothes are my privates, alright. But he yelled at me saying he is not a pervert. I can never think of him like that. He is not like that, at least not to me. He mistook my shyness for reluctance. But then something struck my mind. I mistook his shyness for reluctance? He went rigid because he was shy? I thought he didn''t want me. He pushed me away because I wasparing myself with his flings? I want to make it up for him. I wanted to tell him that I am not thinking any low of him. I picked up his clothes and went to the restroom to change. I took off all my clothes and wore his t-shirt and pants. Just them. I felt totally weird. The scent on his shirt just reminds me of him. It''s like hugging him naked. I am having these wild imaginations still inside the restroom. I don''t have trust in myself. I stayed in the room to gather up courage to open the door. "How long? Are you ok? Do you need any help?" he started knocking on the door. "I don''t want your help. You go out. and close your eyes. I will go home by myself." I shouted from inside. "Pch! Don''t y around, Shia! Come out!" His voice rang in warning. "Close your eyes." I insisted. "How will I dress you if I close my eyes?" he said. I don''t know what he felt when he said that. He may have said that with true concern. But my filthy mind was picturing him actually dressing me up! "Dress my wound, you mean?" I asked him to reconfirm. This sentence was making weird butterflies in my tummy. "I have a way to open the lock from outside. Just open up, Shia!" I think I stayed here very long. "Aiyo, Please, Yash. I feel weird wearing your dress." "That''s ok. I won''tugh." He said. He won''tugh? So he willugh at me? He thinks I''m staying behind just because he willugh at me? What did he think of me? Am I not a grown up girl with dangerous love hormones running wild all over me? He thinks I am a school girl? I decided to tease him. "God, I have no inner wears. I... um.. I feel shy toe out in front of you." I whisper yelled to him. I heard nothing out. Did he go? Cha, wastnd, No romantic ideas. Did he really have so many girls with romantic ideas behind him? Nope, Not possible. Butter-cutter! Those are pure sex. I opened the door to see him standing straight in front of the door that I bumped into. Yadav''s PoV "I''m sorry. I thought you went away." she said without raising her eyes to look at me. She looked so sexy in my clothes. My t-shirt sliding on one of her shoulders showing off her milky skin, her wet hair, her blush on her cheeks. She looks adorable yet sexy. I took her hands and made her walk slowly to the bed. I made her sit down and went to get my first aid box. She never looked up at me once so far. "Lift up your shirt." I told her ever so softly. She shook her head in a No. I pushed her down gently on the pillow and sat near her. I slowly rolled up my tshirt on her. She held my hands when I didn''t stop. I got carried away! I caressed her stomach with my fingers and she closed her eyes tight. She took her lower lip in her teeth to stop her moansing out. Fuck! She is so hot. I took off her old bandage and cleaned the wound. I put on new dressing and pulled her shirt down. She let out a long breath which made her bosoms raise and dip. God! I cannot see her like this. "Um... get ready. I will drop you in your home." I said, diverting my gaze. She sat up and looked at me. Fuck! She is making it so hard for me to stay away. Her eyes literally call me to do every dirty stuff on her. But she is to be handled gently in a more appropriate situation. I left her and went out of the room giving her space. "We shall go." She came behind me and said in a little voice full of disappointment. I didn''t turn to see her for I know if I turn, I may fail to withhold myself. I walked to the stairs but came back to her and carried her bridal style. She buried her face on my chest. The flimsy shirt gives away all her treasures. I could literally feel her body. I ran down the stairs and put her down at once. I walked to my car and opened the door for her. She got in and I drove to her home. "Be at rest. Don''t roam around like you did today. If you want toe there, give me a call. I wille and pick you up." I told her, helping her out of the car. "Come in!" she said holding my hand. "Your mom?" I asked her. It is not safe for us to be alone. "She is not home yet." "I wille when she is here. Now get in and take rest!" "Your dress? Come in and get your dress." she said in a hurry. She is killing me. I don''t want to do something today that I will regretter. But it looks like she is determined to make me lose my self control. "I will get itter. Bye!" I said trying to get out of her grip on my hand. "Don''t make a scene, Yash. Come in. I won''t eat you." she said with a glint of naughtiness. That''s it! I pulled her to me and held her chin up. "But I will eat you. Stop doing this, Shia! Don''t y with my feelings. You will regret itter!" I warned her. Akshu''s PoV His warning only made my butterflies go wild. His tight grip on me makes me want to yearn for more. "But you are the one who is ying with my feelings." I told him, looking in the eye. "Pch, How hard is it to just go into your home?" He yelled at me. "How hard can it be to juste into my home for once?"I questioned him. He looked lost. He left me and moved away. "Ok, Go in. I will wait here. Change and bring my clothes." He said.He is not going anywhere before he epts his feelings for me. The Yash people talk about, just dont think before fucking a girl. But my Yash is afraid of me. He doesn''t want to do that to me. I pulled him inside the home and made him sit on the couch in the hall. I went in to make coffee for him. When I came back with the coffee , he was not there in the hall. Where did he go? I went into my room to see him looking at his picture on my wall beside the bed. "Are you crazy?" he asked me. "I don''t know, Yash. I admired you when I made this frame. But now I love you. I am living for you. This is my only venttor that has been holding my life for the past week." "Shia, I''m not the one for you. Please don''t make it hard for me. I.." I cut him off. I went behind him and hugged him. He stopped talking. I stopped thinking as I hugged him tight, pressing my bosoms on him. He went rigid again. But now I know, he controls himself which he doesn''t have to. I belong to him. Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "I love you, Yash." He took my hands off and turned to me. He took my face in his palms and looked me in the eye. He crashed his lips on mine and sucked the life out of me! Chapter 37: 37. Arranged Marriage? Chapter 37: 37. Arranged Marriage? Akshu''s PoV We broke our kiss when we heard my mom''s bikeing. His face held guilt. "I''m sorry, Shia." he said. He said what? What is he sorry for? "You don''t like me?" I asked him. "Pch, Stop talking like this, Shia. I have this weird feeling towards you. I can promise you that never have I ever felt this before on anyone. I said sorry because even now I feel I''m not the one for you!" He said. He is struggling to ept that this weird feeling he has on me is called love. "I love you!" I told him still in his embrace. He looked at me like I''m going to disappear any second now. His deep brown orbs are trying to pierce my eyes. When I leaned in for another kiss, he took a step back. ¡°I will see you tomorrow.¡± He said walking out of the room. My mom came in exactly when we came out of our room. Her face had a big question mark. I can sense anger in her. I should exin everything to her. "Hello, Mrs.Sumathi. I''m Yadav Rishid. I''m the one who bought Mr.Benjamin''s mansion. He said your daughter is a fan of mine. So just came by to see her." he spoke like it''s the truth. Thiruttu paiyan! (Little thief) "Oh, Wee son. Yes, my daughter is a fan of yours. She even has your picture framed on the walls." "She just showed me now. I''m so happy to have met her. I just got to know that she knows my mom and dad too. Such a small world. It''s nice to meet you too. If you don''t mind, can I call you aunty?" Wow, He is a natural! "Sure, son. She knows your mom and dad?" my mom asked him and saw me. Oops, I forgot to tell her that Shalu aunty is his mom. "um...yes ma. Shalu aunty is his mom. I just got to know thisst week. I forgot to tell you!" "Oh! So that is why you wanted to join hispany? Did you get a rmendation from Shalini?" My mom asked me with a raised tone. "Oh no, aunty. I didn''t do any interviews recently." Thank God. He saved me. "Oh, She said she got a call letter from your office . But she had signed a contract for a year in this office where she is now working." my mom said, giving him a fresh coffee with some snacks and fresh strawberries. "That''s not a problem, aunty. Our HR department will take care of that." He went out after having a little chit chat and making my mom believe whatever he said was true. He made more of my work easier. Now mom wouldn''t have so many questions. "So Akshu, How many of what he was telling were true?" my mom asked me after sending him off.What should I tell her? "Ma?" "I can read between the lines, Akshu. He was good at shielding away. But you are not. I saw you fumble and fiddle whenever I asked him something." Ok, My mom is a genius. I told her everything . From our first encounter to this time. Except for the sensor part and the part where I proposed to him. Duh! My mom is a very strict woman. "So you already like him. Now what?" She asked me. "Ma?" "If you have any idea to take this rtionship to the next level, I''m sorry Akshu, that is not going to happen. He is not the right man." she said sternly. "You say this even after you heard everything I said about him? He is a good man at heart. I ... um... I love him ma. Please don''t talk like this." I almost shouted. "Akshu!" she raised her voice more than mine. "He may be a good man in everything. But not with girls. I just spoke to Emily. She said he tried to kiss her when she was in the pool today morning. A womanizer is not going to be your life partner. This attraction will subside with time. You can be friends with him. You can work in his office. You can continue going to Shalini''s house. But you are not letting him in your heart.¡± She spoke like she was giving me an order. "You believe Emily? He is not like she said. She is a liar, ma!" "Ok, Emily lied. What about numerous news stories about him? All were lies?" She asked me for which I don''t have an answer to. "Ok, So you would have believed it if my picture came on the news that night? Not every news story is true, ma!" I tried to talk her out of her views on him. "I would believe it if that came in the newspapers!" she said coldly. Shattered is a small word to describe my state. "Ma?" "I always want the best for you. He is not the best. I have already chosen a nice man for you. Without any flings attached." She ced a photo on the table and went in.What should I do now? How will I compromise her? That Eli is a bitch. How dare she lied on him. After 2months of struggle, Yash is now getting a bit close to me. But now, mom is getting in the way! Yadav''s PoV I can sense uncertainty in her mom''s demeanour. She is not happy with my presence. I knew it. This is why I wanted to stay away from her. I now know why my mom was so worried about my reputation. This yboy tag is not going to just disappear. I am notining about Shia''s mom. This is what every parent would feel like. This is why I avoided her as much as I could. She may not join my office next week. I cannot see her henceforth. Shit! I should have not kissed her. That''s a big mistake. I should have controlled my feelings and emotions towards her. She just walked all over me. I let her do it to me. That lingering kiss we shared a little before is the thing I have to cherish forever! I badly wanted to divert myself. I should make it easy for Shia to go away from me. Actually I should have done that long back! "May Ie in, Mr.Yadav." That screeching voice again. God, Can''t people understand ignoring? "Yes!" I said reluctantly. "Hi Mr.Yadav, Are you bored? I can take you on a tour of our corn field, coffee estate and strawberry patch." "Sorry, Emily. I''m tired. We shall go tomorrow" "Oh, It''s ok. Actually you can call me Em like you said in the morning." I just want to bang my head on the wall. "Sure. Now if you will please excuse me, I have some important calls to make." I restrained myself from lashing out on her. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. "Come on, Mr.Yadav. You are on vacation. We shall y something. How about chess? or carrom board?" How can I tell her to get out in a more diplomatic way ? Is she uneducated? "Do you have a degree, Ms.Emily?" I asked her. "Yes! I''m a fashion designing graduate. I''m now doing my masters in it." "Nice, You don''t have any assignments?" "I do. Shall we work together?" "Pch, Will you please get out, Ms.Emily? I have had enough. I said I will call you Em just to pull the legs of Shia. Not because I like you. Now please!" I showed her the door. Chapter 38: 38. Perfect Groom Chapter 38: 38. Perfect Groom Akshu''s PoV I don''t know what to do. Mom is not ready to talk with me about Yash. I thought she would not say no to love marriage because she herself had a love marriage. That is why we have no rtives. Mom and dad had a very loving life. One day a police constable came with the grave news that my dad met with an ident and he was dead on the spot. We were shattered. My mom took almost a year to recover. She even asked me aboutmitting suicide. Benjamin uncle talked her out of it. She is now living for me. Only me. I took the picture mom put on the table. He looks smart. Who is he by the way? Where did he jump from? I never knew mom was in the groom hunt for me. We have never spoken about it. Ok, Now I should talk to mom about stopping whatever it is going on with this nameless guy. We can talk about Yashter. I badly want to see him. But mom is not going anywhere today. I cannot ask her to go and see Jamin uncle. Obviously she will know why I am asking. Duh! Knowing that he is behind the wall, I cannot stay here. Being in here is very boring too. Someone rang the bell and I went to open it. That''s Manoj and Rahul. "Akka (sis)! How are you?" Both asked me. "I''m good da. What are you guys doing here at this time? No college?" "No akka. Study holidays have started. We knew you would be bored. So just came by to give you company." Manoj said. "You are walking already? Take a rest." Rahul said. "I''m alright. Maa, Manoj and Rahul are here. I''m going out with them." I shouted looking inside. "Ok, But be careful. Walk slowly." she said. We went out walking to thepound. They both panicked and said no for me to climb. "Akka, there is no sand bed. It''s very dangerous." Rahul said. "I know. I have a special way of jumping. Now you both jump." I climbed on thepound wall and satfortably. I picked my phone and called Yash. "Yash, I need you now." ".." No answer? "Yash, Are you there? Come to the pool." "I have other important work to do." He said coldly. Not again, Not from the start! "I will jump down if you don''te in 2minutes." I disconnected the call. But I''m afraid. What would I do if he didn¡¯te? He is an expert in ignoring. I waited for him toe. Yadav''s PoV She is a nuisance. I already am feeling weird about her. She calls me up and says ''I need you now''? Seriously? This gives me all bad ideas. I made up my mind to ignore her yesterday night. But now, I just want to see her. She disconnected telling me that she will jump if I don''t go. I saw her through the window. She was sitting in the exact same spot where I caught her yesterday. Should I go? Or should I not? She picked up her phone and I got a call. "I''m going to jump." she said that and jumped. My heart skipped a beat and I ran down. She is an idiot. That wall is 7feet. I should have gone when she called me. I never thought that she would do this. When I reached there, she was walking beside the pool with 2other guys. How? Is she not injured? "Idiot, Are you insane? Don''t you know to be careful? Why the hell did you jump? Are you alright?" I started shouting. "Pch, I called you and you didnte on time. My little brothers caught me alright. Now move aside. We have many important works. My mom has fixed my wedding with a man. I may get a call from my future hubby. I need some privacy." she said looking me in the eye. She is not lying. "What the hell? Who is that? So you kissed me knowing that you have a to-be-groom?" I held her elbow. "Aahh, You are hurting me. And no. I didn''t know that before. I got to know itter. And anyways you have decided to ignore me right? What is your problem if I get married to another man? You should actually be happy. I won''t bother you anymore. " She said with her voice full of anger. But I''m more angry than her. How can she do this? She really changed her mind so quickly? Why the hell does this news feel like my heart is being pricked by 1000 needles? Her phone rang and she had a question mark on her eyebrows. "Akka, He is Yadav Rishid, right?" one of the boys asked her. She just nodded her head. "Did you both kiss? Are you in love with each other? So cool. I knew it when you always looked for his pictures and news online. I''m so happy that you ..." she stopped him between. "We don''t love! That was a mistake." she said. Does she mean kissing me was a mistake? But I thought I should cherish it for the rest of my life! How stupid am I? What does she have that all the other girls who shared my bed don''t? Why should I let my guard down for her? Her phone rang again. She picked it up. "Hello! Who is this?" "...." "Hi, Mr.Raajiv. My mom told me about you just yesterday. I''m good. Thank you. How are you?" "...." "Um...Sure. Yeah I''m feeling better. Thank you." "..." "um...ofcourse we can meet. I am nning to join Rishid softwares next week wednesday. We can meet on the weekend." ".." "Sure, Mr.Raajiv. Yes please!" "...."C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org. "Hi aunty. I''m good. Thank you. How are you?" "..." "Um...We shall talk about it, aunty. Sure. We will meet. Bye aunty!" She disconnected the call. I know it''s her groom to be. I went in without waiting for her answer. Do we really have anything to talk about between us? "Yash! " she came running behind me. "Stop running, idiot! You are notpletely healed yet. Now just go away." I went upstairs and locked the room. I cannot stay here anymore. It''s her life. She can do whatever she likes. I already knew that I''m not right for her. I already have decided to stay clear of her way. Now if she is going to get engaged to someone else, she will be out of danger too! Until she gets engaged, I decided to keep her on watch with Joshua. Then I should get her out of my brain and heart. Chapter 39: 39. A Beautiful Doctor Chapter 39: 39. A Beautiful Doctor Akshu''s PoV Disaster! Why!? Why does something like this always happen to me? Shit! I never thought that stupid Raajiv will call me. His timing was perfect. Mom is ruining everything I struggled to build. She gave him my phone number and didn''t care to tell me? Atrocious! I was angry at Yash for noting down to get me. Just by his looks, I can tell he got back into his shell again. I just wanted to pull his leg and it backfired at me. I ran behind him to exin that I''m not interested in that proposal. But he shut me off, Again! What am I going to do now? I should talk mom out of this mess. If she wouldn''t nudge, I should tell my refusal to Raajiv and his mom when I meet him next weekend. I''m healed. But it still exhausts me if I climb stairs. So I didn''t climb behind him to his room. First thing first. I should sort out the mess around me before I talk to him. Kavya''s PoV It''s very boring being here without Akshu. She sure is a nuisance but a loving nuisance. I hope she comes as soon as possible. It''s already the weekend. We still have five more days for the joining date. Akshu said she wille on sunday. I decided to go shopping. Like window shopping. I really don''t have anything to buy. I just want to get out to get some fresh air and see some new faces. Being in the room leaves me to think only about that horrific incident and it makes me feel like killing myself. Shalu aunty calls me every other day to keep me in check. Akshu''s job. I informed her about my outing! I took the scooty and went to the nearby mall. I started roaming around. It''s kinda refreshing. I was surfing through the clothes in a shop when I saw something through the ss on the opposite side. I ran out to get a clear view. Is that really him? It is him. Vishwa! With a girl kinda modern. Unlike me. She was a beautiful girl. I walked across to get a better view. I hid behind a pir without them noticing me. "Vish, It''s been a long time man. Where have you disappeared? Shall we meet up tonight?" "Listen, Nita. What we had was just a one night stand. I prefer it stays that way." "Come on, Vish. I was a pure virgin when you had me. I thought you were in love with me. But you cheated me. Now you.." "Shut up, Nita. I gave you enough money to lose your virginity to me. So that''s a trade once you get money. Don''t do this emotional ckmailing to me. I''m far better at that than you!" "Cool down man. Ok ok, Why not another night with some money again?" "I won''t entertain the same woman again. bye Nita." She went away. I regret having heard this conversation. I feel a sharp pain in my heart. After our encounter at the hospital, I thought maybe there is more that is not seen. I still thought he may be a good man after all. But now? I didn''t know I was crying until a drop fell on my shoes. I wiped it off and turned to leave. But then I bumped on him again. When did hee? Did he know I heard him talk filthy? "Sorry." I tried to move away but then he caged me against the pir. "Kavya, You always hear and see the wrong part." He said. How dare he? "Let me go!" I refused to look at him. "I say it again. Don''t just believe what you see or hear. There is always another side to the story!" "Why? Why Vishwa? Why are you doing this to me?" "I have no other choice. I started something just like that and now I''m trapped. I really don''t have any idea that something like this will happen to me. I''m a mess, Kavya! Gimme some time to sort it out!" "I don''t understand anything that you say. I can''t stop my heart from running after you. You are such a low life ,Vishwa. My mind knows it well. But my heart refuses. You killed my soul, Vishwa. Please don''t come into my life ever again. Let me go!" He removed his hands and stood aside giving me a way. I walked away without sparing him a look. He doesn''t deserve it. He spoiled a girl''s life and is not guilty? How many girls does he cheated on? There are girls of his type readily avable to share his bed. Why does he target innocents with a bait called ''love''? Will he ever feel guilty of what he is doing? Shiva''s PoV Handling Yadav''s business is very hard. He is obviously an expert. He called me just now. He is starting from Coonoor tonight. He wille to the office tomorrow. A big burden is off my shoulders soon. I''m relieved but I also feel bad for him that he didn''t even spend 3 days there. I have a meeting with these medical insurance people regarding the policies of our employees. Yadav said that Pranesh''s hospital has tied up with an insurancepany and it would be better if we change to them to get the best for our employees. I went into the conference hall to see them that havee already. I greeted everyone and took the seat. There were 3 people. 2 men and a girl. A beautiful girl. "I''m Shiva. I represent Yadav for today." "Hello, Shiva. I''m Manikandan and he is Rudramurthy. We are from the insurancepany." "Nice meeting you. And you Miss?" Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "Hi, I''m Dheeksha. I''m an oncologist with MJ hospitals. I''m here to represent our hospital and our Deen Mrs.Devaki." She said and I heard jingles when she talked. "Nice!" The meeting went on for another 1hour and we had a break. Their schemes are very good and cover almost all medical conditions. But I just have to make sure they have anything like conditions applied. The main point of us switching to them is for the betterment of our workers. "Um... Have we met before?" Dheeksha asked me. "Sorry, Not that I remember of. But you do look familiar." I lied. You know it will be rude to say no on a girl''s face. That too on a beautiful girl''s face. "Never mind, Sorry!" her face held guilt. "Please don''t be, Ms. Dheeksha. So you are an oncologist huh? You look so young." "um...I''m actually an intern. I''m in my final semester in MD." "Wow, intern in a very big concern. Lucky you, Congrattions!" "Well, Actually it turns out that MJ hospital''s Deen is my mother. So yeah, I didn''t do much to get in!" she said meekly. That was cute. "Good for you, A girl like you should be infort all your life." "Really? Why do you say so?" "Well, You are beautiful." Her face turned crimson, I was shocked! Did I really tell that out loud to her? I''m not this kinda guy. Chapter 40: 40. Midnight Texts Chapter 40: 40. Midnight Texts Akshu''s PoV "Ma, I told you I love Yash. Why did you give my number to that man? It''s getting too much, Ma. You are invading my personal space. Why don''t you value my feelings? Yash is a very good man. He is not what the media projects. Even if that was true, my love will reform him." I''m pretty mad at my mom. I decided to end this once and for all. I want my Yash in my life. I should make mom ept him wholeheartedly. I cannot lose my only family. For all this to happen, I must eliminate Raajiv. "Akshu, I have raised you to see you live happily without anything on your shoulders to carry. I have not raised you to reform someone. Raajiv is the best. He is a doctor. Talk to him. See him in person. He is an attractive man too. You will like him. He is the right one for you." "Ma, Did you hear yourself? I said living with Yash is the only thing that will make me happy. And you say you want me to be happy marrying the man I don''t even like to talk about?" "You cannot decide before meeting him, Akshu. Raajiv is our rtive. A close one!" "Wow, When did this new rtionship sprout? Out of nowhere!? I won''t be happy if Yash is not in my life!" "Raajiv is the son of Devaki. Your dad''s sister. Devaki called me inquiring about you for his son. I did my back work. He is the best." Mom is adamant and so am I. "He may be the best. But for me, Yash is the best. Ma please liste..." She cut me off. "Akshu, I decided to marry you to Raajiv. I think he is perfect for you. Besides, I love to get in touch with our rtives. How long are we going to live alone like this? So your wedding with him is my choice. You can decide otherwise. But if you do, then I''m out of your life!" She went in. She is not ready to talk? Where does this stupid people jump from in our lives suddenly? What am I going to do now? Dad''s dad was so stubborn that he didn''t ept dad and mom when they married without his consent. He didn''t evene to dad''s funeral. Cruel people. Mom doesn''t entertain the idea of rtives. But what happened now that changed mom''s opinion? I slumped on the couch. I cannot stay here arguing and fighting with mom. She has made her mind up. As far as I know, It''s nearly impossible to change her mind. I told Kavi that I wille there sunday. But I am now prepared to go there tomorrow. I should meet this Raajiv Aththaan(Maternal aunt''s son) and exin to him that I am already in love with someone else. Maybe he will hear me out. I should do this as soon as possible. Before everything, I should talk to Yash. He must know that I love him for eternity. Shiva''s PoV I had a great day. It is weird but true that I had no inhibitions talking with Dheeksha. It was very natural. I didn''t know for so long that I had it in me. I mean the courage to talk to a girl! We chatted for a while after the meeting and I insisted on dropping her. But she refused saying she had her ride. Burn! I gave her my business card. I must have asked for her number. But I felt it was too much asking for her number at the very first meeting. But I regret it now. I went to bed after setting up a few meetings for Yadav tomorrow. It was a new venture for Yadav. We were looking at the surroundings when we came across a camp. Nearby was a little vige from where people came for that medical camp. Yadav felt too tired and he went to the newly constructed building half way through our tour. I went on when I saw 2men arguing with a girl going dangerously near her. I stepped in to see that they were angry that she poked one of them in the wrong spot that he endured more pain. The girl was weeping and none of her friends came to help. I then noticed it was break time and none of the senior doctors were there. I asked what they wanted and they demanded money. I knew instantly that the girl was not at fault. I acted as if I''m calling the police and they took off. That girl thanked me and ran in the camp tent. Poor girl. I woke up and sat on the bed. We have met before. That girl is Dheeksha. That must be her final year in MBBS. She remembered me? Or she just asked me without knowing? I am an idiot. I should have remembered her. Or at least I should have got her number. Shit! I picked up my phone and saw a message from an unknown number. I opened it. ''We have met before, Shiva. Think about it. Good Night. -Dheeksha.'' I was feeling ecstatic. So she remembered me. She asked me to know if I remember her. She must be upset. I wanted to talk to her. I wanted to hear her voice. But now it''s 2am. It will be very inappropriate to call a girl at this hour. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. ''I remember you, weeping doctor. Sorry I didn''t recognise you at once. Good Night.'' I messaged her and was waiting for her reply. Yeah, I know, She would be sleeping. But I just couldn''t sleep. What the hell is this? I never thought I would fall in love. But am I now!? I don''t know if this is love because I have never felt this way with any girl before. ''d you remembered me. I''m not a weeping doctor anymore!'' She replied, She didn''t sleep? Oh, she is a doctor. Maybe night shifts!? ''I can see that! Didn''t sleep yet?'' ''Nope! Didn''t feel like sleeping! You?'' ''I woke up! Not sleepy anymore!'' ''Why? Did something disturb you?'' ''What if I say yes and that is you?'' ''I never knew you could talk like this!'' ''What else you know about me?'' ''um...you are shy with girls!'' ''Who said that?'' ''No one. I just assumed. well I now know I''m not good at assumptions.'' ''Is that a bad thing?'' ''I like to be your disturbance.'' Whoa, She is bold. It''s kinda too fast for me. I like it. But I would love to take it slow. ''It''ste Dheeksha. Good night. Will talk to you tmw!'' ''What should I assume now? You don''t like me?'' ''You know you are not good at assumptions'' ''good night!'' I never knew I would talk to a girl through messages in the middle of the night. Chapter 41: 41. His Confession Chapter 41: 41. His Confession Akshu''s PoV After my mom retired to sleep, I sneakily went out to go and meet Yash. The more I dy talking to him, the more he is going to go away from me. The good thing about my mom is she will sleep very early, at 8.30pm. And also she is a sound sleeper. I climbed on the wall and was about to call Manoj toe there to catch me. But then I saw Yash sitting near the pool with his legs in the water. Eli was sitting with him and talking like the world is going to end tomorrow. I just wish to kill her. But then the looks on Yash''s face showed me he is not enjoying herpany. That calmed me down a little. He keeps moving away from her and she gets even more closer than the previous time. Aaargh! Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "Yash!" I couldn''t tolerate seeing them together anymore. I called out on him. He raised his eyes at me and turned. He turned away? How dare he! "Hey, Akshitha! How many times do we have to tell you not to climb on the wall? You are going to break it." Eli shouted. That''s it! "Oh shut up, Eli. It''s not your property anymore. Let him say that." I said to her and looked at him, "Are you going toe and catch me now or what?" I asked him. "Why should he do that? Talk to him with respect, Akshitha." she said. God! What is with her? "Yash!" I called him in a final tone. He stood up and came near the wall and I jumped on him. He caught me safely and was about to put me down. "Uh.. Don''t put me down. I want to talk to you. Take me to your room." I whispered to him. He looked at me and put me down. "We have nothing to talk about, I guess." He said coldly. I pulled his cor and bent him down so that his face got in line with mine. "If you don''t take me to your room now, I will kiss you. Eli is looking at us. I swear I will do it." He had a smirk which said I won''t. Huh, Who does he think I am? I pulled him closer and crashed my lips on his. I chained my hands around his neck and pulled him in even more. He went rigid at first but soon warmed up. He grabbed my waist and started to deepen the kiss just when that stupid Eli interrupted again. "What the hell? I never thought you were this cheap, Akshitha. You kissed a man without his consent? Gross, Are you this desperate for men?" she started shrieking. "Shut up! Another word on her and you are dead." Yash defended me. His voice was so sharp that even I had a ball of fear in my stomach. Eli just stood there in shock while he picked me up and took me to his room walking past her. I opened his room and he went in. I closed it behind us. Though I am overwhelmed with the way he spoke for me, I am still afraid of his sudden outburst. I dare not look him in the eye. He put me down gently near the love seat. He lifted my chin up to make me see him. His eyes are dark filled with lust. His breath fanning my cheek, I was slowly losing myself. He palmed my cheeks and took my lips in his! We continued what we started. This kiss was very sensual. I saw stars in my closed eyes. Our lips move synchronously, Our tongue dancing to the same tune, It is heaven! I felt my knees buckle and lose sense of my legs. My eyes rolled up making sparkles all over my body. He started stroking my back, arms and pulled me in his chest by my waist bncing my now limp body. We broke to catch some air. I buried my face on his chest. I am too shy to look up at him. "I love you, Yash!" I told him, hugging him tight. He was very silent. That was odd. His grip on me loosened. He just stood there. Not again! "Shia, See! This is not what you think. It''s just an..." I stopped him. He is going to say something that will hurt me. "Yash, How long are you going to deny your feelings for me? Don''tplicate it. I love you. If I''m not going to live with you, I will never be happy. If you want to see me unhappy for my whole life then do what you are doing now. Just deny me! I will die in front of your eyes." I told him. "Shit, Shia, listen, I''m not a good guy. I don''t believe in love. I''m not the guy who stays with the same girl for the whole life. I like you. That''s true. I care for your safety. That is true too. But I don''t know if I love you." He said. God, how can I teach him that he is in love with me? "God, Who am I for you to care for my safety? Why do you like me? Have you ever felt responsible for some random girl''s safety? Have you ever shortened your trip abroad and came running to see a girl in hospital? Don''t you know why you did all this to me? Because you love me, idiot! How am I going to tell you what love is?" I am exhausted. He is not sure of his feelings. "Stop it, Shia. I know I did all this to you. I may have done all this because I thought you were beautiful. To me, beauty is something I see in every girl. This all is just an attraction towards you. It may vanish as soon as I get you on my bed!" He said not meeting my eyes. He is a ruthless moron. Just talking won¡¯t get into his thick skull. "Ok, You have a valid point. Tell me how many times did you have sex in the past 2 months? I know, Nil. Why?" "How do you even be sure of that? Nothing on the news doesnt mean I had no sex." He said. He doesn''t know that his words are scarring my soul. "Alright, Take me now, Yash. I''m all yours. If your interest on me vanish after this sex, I won¡¯t bother you anymore. Anyways I won¡¯t marry another man. I have considered myself as yours. So I have no problem giving myself to you." I spoke while unbuttoning my shirt. He held my hand midway. "Shia." his voice rang in warning. "I''m not ying, Yash. You think you need to have sex with me? That is what interests you in me? Let''s do it. I don''t know about you. But I need you. I don''t care if it''s just for a night or my whole life. I love you." I pushed his hands aside and took my shirt off. "Stop it, Shia. Put your shirt on!" He turned away to the other side. "Why? Don''t I look appealing? I know I am a curvy woman!" I walked in front of him and tried to take my bra off. "God, I love you. I Love you, alright! Now put on your shirt. You are the sexiest girl I have ever seen. Don''t test my self control. I don''t want to do this now. And yes I didnt have any interest in other women after seeing you. I didn''t even have the urge to have sex. But now I''m not sure. Put your clothes on and go out before it gets toote." He said turning to the other side. It worked after all. I hugged him from behind. He is mine! Only mine! Chapter 42: 42. Take Me! Chapter 42: 42. Take Me! Dheeksha''s PoV I couldn''t sleep. His eyes follow me everywhere. I see him everywhere in my room. I didn''t even properly thank him on our first encounter. I was scared. But when I saw him in the conference room, I knew it''s him instantly. The way he saw me, I felt it burning a hole through me. So intense. I never expected him to tell me that I''m beautiful. It made my heart flutter. I liked it. We spoke for more than 30minutes after the meeting. What did we talk about? I don''t know. But I didn''t ever want that time to get over. He gave me his card. I know, he was shy to ask for my number. Having his number with me and not contacting him seemed impossible. But I also knew he didn''t recognise me. I just sent him a text telling him that we have met before. No reply. He didn''t see it yet. Has he slept already? God, It''s 12.30am already and I messaged a man whom I just met today? Wow! I tried sleeping but sleep just yed hide and seek with me. I opened the message box and looked at his disy picture. Handsome! He is really handsome. He has a string to my heart. He pulls it towards him every second now. My phone pinged with his message while I was looking at his picture. It said he recognised me. Am I happy? If Jumping on the bed at 2am in the night squealing joyfullyes under the category of being happy, then I am happy! Ecstatic! We chatted for a while. He has some inhibitions in talking to me. Maybe he wants to take it slow. But I know what we have between us. I can give him his time. Shy guy! I am now getting ready for the hospital. Mom and bro are waiting in the dining hall for me. We are all doctors except for my dad. He is No More! "Dheekshu, how long? It''s alreadyte!" my brother shouted from downstairs. I ran down and took a seat beside him. "If you gette, just go. I didn''t ask you to wait. You always rush me every morning bro. By the way, good morning!" I greeted him. "Dheekshu, is this the way you talk to your brother? You are both going to the same ce. Why 2 cars? Help our environment. And try being a responsible doctor Dheekshu. Beingte is the first disqualification!" My mother started her long lecture. My brother had that teasing smile on his face. How I wish to wipe that off of him. "Raajiv, I found the facebook profile of Akshitha. There are not many pictures. But it has some. I have sent you the link. She is a beautiful girl. We should bring her home. My anni(brother''s wife) is all happy that we asked for Akshitha''s hand in marriage. I''m happy too to have a chance to rebuild the rtionship that was lost with my brother. Since grandpa is no more now, grandma''s only wish is to bring the family together!" "Ma, Even if she is not beautiful, I will marry her. I know you won¡¯t wrong me!" Aahhh! Drama, Sentiment, My brother is a perfect son. I''m the total opposite. I''m alwayspared to him. That is the main reason for me to hate him. But I also love him because he loves me unconditionally. Though we fight every now and then, it''s him I turn to, at all of my miserable times. He is an idiot. He agrees for a marriage without looking at the picture of a girl? He lives in BC. "Ma, Send me the link. I want to see her. This will proceed to the wedding only after my approval." I told mom. "Dheekshu, What did I say about grandma?" My mom said with a disapproving look. "Ma, are you serious? Grandma is very old and on her deathbed. I love her too. But it''s my bro''s life we are talking about. Grandma''s life is , as per her records, may not exceed 3months. We can bring this, What''s her name? Ah, Akshitha and her mom home. Show them to grandma. Make her believe we are one happy family. Even tell a lie that bro and that girl are going to marry. Make her happy when she finishes her life journey. But pushing my bro into a loveless wedding is not right. Your loving son may roll his head for whatever you say. But I will talk on behalf of him!" I said, my mom can¡¯t be thinking about grandma and spoil Raajiv¡¯s future. My brother patted my head lovingly. He bent down my ears and said, "I already saw her pics. She is super beautiful. I said ok only after that. Anyways thank you for the long talk, sis!" He went to wash his hands. I know he is a tiger in a cow''s disguise. Ouch! He hit my ego. All my emotions went in the drain? Cha, Next time I should not stand up for him. Yadav''s PoV She is literally testing my patience. She is hugging me from behind, shirtless? What did she think of me? Some saint? I''m losing my self control. I turned to see her. But then, she hugged me tight burying her face in my chest. I took my hands to hug her but dropped it down when my fingers felt bare skin. She is going to be the death of me. I grabbed her shoulders and pulled her out of me. She stood in front of me with her pink bra and a full length skirt! Fuck! She felt self conscious? How cute and sexy!? She tried to cover herself with her hands. My eyes never left its treat. She is a perfectly carved girl with beautiful ups and downs. "Shia!" I called her. She jumped on me, hugging me tight, closing my eyes. We lost bnce and fell on the couch, she was on top of me with her treasures pressed on me. Not Helping! I started feeling her smooth skin on her back. The more my fingers caress her, the more she pastes her on to me. I couldn''t stop myself. But this is wrong. She is precious! She trusts me with all she has. I should value it! "Shia, please. Don''t make it too hard for me. Put on your shirt and leave." I told her. She lifted her head up to see me. Her eyes have that deliberate call for my hands to feel her. This is getting out of control. "You don''t want me?" She raised her eyebrows. She is very bold yet stupid. She doesn''t know what she is stepping into. I clutched her hair and pulled it away from me such that her neck and cleavage were exposed to me. "Huh..." she left out a loud gasp! "You think I am a saint?" I dipped in her neck and trailed my kisses down her throat to the middle of her boobs. "Yash!" she jerked when I gave her a love bite there. She is soft as hell. I cannot stop. I picked up her shirt and covered her mounds, which is making me insane. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Shia, Leave before it gets too much to control." "I want more!" she clutched my shirt and started kissing me on my face, down my neck while unbuttoning my shirt. Everytime her lips brush my skin, it ignites a fire that could only be put down by her. "Shia, Enough! I dont have the power to stop it if you are doing it. You will regret itter!" I told, stopping her. "Mark me as yours, Yash. I don''t know what happened to me. But all I know is I want you!" she said in a pleasing voice. "I know, You have no idea how much I wish to take you right here by tearing those clothes that hide you from me. But baby, Please! This is not the right time. I promise you, You are mine to take. Please get dressed and go home!" I said looking her in the eye. Her eyes are the only thing I want to see now to harness my wild running dirty mind. She hugged me tight and gave me a peck on my cheek. She turned me around away from her. She is funny, she doesn''t want me to see her putting on her shirt? "I love you, Yash! I''m so happy. Have a good sleep. Will see you in the morning." She said getting in front of me after dressing up. "Love you too, baby. I wish I could see you in the morning. But I am leaving to Chennai now!" I told her. "What? Why?" "What happened to that wedding proposal?" I asked her, angry. "oh, You are leaving because you are angry with me? Idiot, I will handle it. I came to tell you that. I was angry at you when you ignored me. I just wanted to pull your leg. But I swear I had no idea that man would call me. Sorry, Yash!" She said, holding her ears. She is so cute. "Ok ok, I''m sorry too. But I told Shiva that I will be there tomorrow. He made my schedule, dear. I have to go!" I said. I don''t want to go. "Can you start in the morning? I was nning to go to Chennai tomorrow. If you can stall for the morning, we can go together.¡± She jumped like a kid. "But how? You still need rest, Shia. And also your mom will know. She didn''t like me, you know!" "Sorry, she made you feel that way. I love you and she will learn to love you too. Give her time. I am perfectly alright. I will go to the bus stand and you will pick me up there, Deal?" she said with her voice full of sorry. "Haha, What are we now? Some school lovers hiding away from their parents?" I asked her, she makes me feel like I am a teenager. "pch, will you wait for me or what?" "Chill, tell me your time. We shall go together." I kissed her cheeks and pushed her out of my room. "Good night, I will call you tomorrow. And this is not the right way to handle your wife, Mr.Yash!" she said yfully. "Enough, Call me. Now go." I showed her the stairs. She is impossible! Chapter 43: 43. For Real? Chapter 43: 43. For Real? Akshu''s PoV I couldn''t believe what just happened. He epted his love for me. He said ''I love you'' to me. I still don''t know what kept him away from me. But I am happy now that he broke his reasons and epted my love for him. Now my only prob is mom. I should somehow make her realize that there will be no happiness in my life if not for Yash. I am amazed by his self control. For a man who was gossiped to have had sex very often, he showed wonderful resistance. That showed me how much he values me. Though I am disappointed by his resistance, I love him even more now if that was even possible. I honestly wanted to make love with him tonight. I wanted him to mark me as his! His touches made me want for more. His sensual strokes on my sensitive spots put me under his spell. I didn''t want this to stop. His kisses on my neck almost made me faint. How I wish his hands experience my every flesh and bones. He was this close in touching my breasts. Or I wanted him to touch me there. But then he covered me with my shirt. He wants to do it right. I can wait for him. Even an eternity! He pushed me out of his room literally. He doesn''t want me there. I can understand his inner-struggle. I slowly got down the stairs. Just when I was wondering on how to get back, I heard him. "Hey loosu, Come I will drop you." "Hey meanie, Stop calling me like that!" "A, You are so cute! But I like to call you that. You are really that. I mean who in their right mind will climb on a wall that is 7ft high? In a skirt?" he winked at me. I felt a knot in my lower stomach and hot in my face. "Bad boy." I intertwined my fingers in his hands. It just felt right. "So you guys got along well, I guess." Jamin uncle came out from his room. "Um... Yes uncle." I tried to take my hand from him but he gripped it tight, not letting go. "Good, Does your mom know, Akshu? She showed me a picture of your groom. Looks like he is your aunt''s son. Your mom is looking for a reunion with your dad''s family. She told me about your grandma who is on her deathbed! This wedding is her final wish. She also said about a Will. Talk to your mother soon, Akshu. Congrattions, Mr.Yadav! Akshu is a very good girl." Jamin uncle spoke long which I felt was totally unnecessary. Because for every word he spoke, Yash tightened his grip on me. "I will talk to her uncle. I am leaving for Chennai tomorrow. I will call you every other day. Good night." "Sure, Akshu. Good night. Take care of her, Mr.Yadav." he sounded like a warning to Yash. How funny. He is very protective of me. I''m very lucky to have lovable people around me. "Haha, he will, uncle. See you." We went out to his car. He didn''t speak a word. He is very calm. God, Not again. "Yash!" I touched his hand on the gear. "Get this wrapped up soon, Shia." he said, looking me in the eye. His dark brown orbs pierced my soul. "Will do, Yash. Please don''t be mad. I like the yful Yash more." I pouted at him and leaned on his shoulder. "Love you, Shia. I get angry soon when it involves you. I actually am aposed person. But it copses if it''s you." he said, caressing my cheek. "I love it." I kissed his cheek. His shoulders felt like home. His eyes make me warm. His hands and lips make me feel the stars. "Don''t kiss me too often like this. I may not be the same every time." he said, touching our foreheads together. I closed my eyes. I can even die at this moment. Reaching him is my life''s destiny. I still couldn''t believe that it''s him sitting beside me and driving me home. I couldn''t believe that he loves me too. I couldn''t believe his feelings were more intense than mine. I couldn''t believe my admiration and craze for the glowing star out of reach has brought it very close to me. I couldn''t believe my love for him actually got reciprocated. I must say, I am lucky. I mean, how many girls get to marry a star?! Raajiv''s PoV She is a beautiful girl. I have never even dreamt a girl as beautiful as her will jump out of nowhere into my life. I am notining though. I should actually thank grandma. I have an important meeting with mom in thete afternoon. She had an operation yesterday that was 8hours long. She needs rest. If not for it, she would be the first toe to the hospital. Dheekshu is in training. She will make a good doctor in the near future. Someone knocked on my door. "Come in!" "Hi doc! Good morning. I have doubts about this report." Anika came in with a file. Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. "Come on, Anika. You are good at reading reports. Tell me what''s the matter?" "Raj, you know what I will talk about. Our marriage." "Anika, please. I think we already spoke enough of it. I''m not interested in a marriage with you." She is tiring. "Raj, But we have a beautiful chemistry between us. I think I have developed feelings for you." "I like you, Anika. I love yourpany. I like spending time with you. But I don''t love you. I told you this so many times now. My answer won''t change." "Are you seeing someone?" She asked me. "Well kind of. My mom chose my bride already." "So when will be your wedding?" "Anytime soon. Maybe within 3months!" "So we are done?" she pouted. She is a beautiful girl too. My junior in college. Every boy had his eye on her. But she chose me. "Nope, Anika. We are not done. I will always enjoy yourpany." I went to her with an assurance. She was happy with my assurance. We have had an agreement since college. We hang out together, we get physical. But we won''t force each other into marriage. I am not sure of Akshitha. If she is open enough to ept this, I will continue to entertain Anika. If she is a typical good girl type, then I should drop Anika here. We started having physical rtionships in college. Studying about everything and a beautiful girl on my side made me do this. We were curious. After looking at Akshitha''s picture, I feel guilty for having done this. But I am safe. We both needed each other only for sex. No emotions involved. My heart is clean for my future wife, you see! Chapter 44: 44. Is He Worth It? Chapter 44: 44. Is He Worth It? Kavya''s PoV Akshu called me yesterday night about 10pm to tell me all about how Yadav became a part of her. She kept it away from me for so long because she wanted to tell me only when he reciprocates her love. She said they areing here together today. I thought she was crazy for getting behind a famous person. But she won her feelings. Her love won his heart for her. Well, I am happy for her. I hope he stays loyal to her. I wonder now, do thoughts and feelings have that power to make changes in a person''s heart? Can we really bring a person who is totally a stranger, as a close one? Or is she merely lucky? Should I try to reform Vishwa? I called his number. It''s 8am in the morning. I know he is not working in the office anymore. I don''t know if he found another job yet. He picked in the very first ring. "Kavya, Is that you?" his voice held astonishment and hurry. "um..yes, How are you?" "Kavya, Hang up now. I will call you in a minute." "wait...wha..." He hung up on me? What am I doing? My phone rang Again. An unknown number? "Hello." I picked it up. "Kavya, It''s me, Vishwa." "Why are you calling me from a different number?" "It''splicated. How are you Kavya?" "I''m good. Shall we meet up today?" I asked him, setting aside all my inhibitions. "Sure, Can youe over to my home? After 3pm in the noon? Don''t worry, my mom will be home." "Ok, I guess." "Will send you my home address through whatsapp from this number. Don''t call my number. Call to this number if you need something." "Why? Won''t you ask me why I want to meet you?" "I''m happy that you want to meet me. I can''t do it out. So I invited you home. I can hear anything you want to say." "Why do you sound like a good man to me?" "Maybe because I am a good man after all." he said with a little softness in his voice. "Vishwa, I know what you are." I hate it when my heart ignores all the facts and runs behind him like a brainless idiot. "Oh really? So what''s the point in this meeting when you already know me?" "You betrayed me!" I said that more to myself to keep my dumb heart reminding what he did. "Kavya, Don''t say that. I would never do that to you. I didn''t do anything that will hurt you." He said and all I wanted to do was to believe him. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Oh really? How do you exin what happened in our office?" "You want answers? I am ready to give you them. But know one thing. I may not have been a good man before. But now I love you. Only you. I can do anything to keep you safe." "Vishwa!" I couldn''t speak. He just told me he loves me for the very first time. But I cannot tell him that until he tells me Everything that I need to know. A part of me feels joyous. My throat thickens, getting hard to swallow. "We will talk today, Kavya. I promise. Talking on the phone for so long is not good. Love you. Bye!" What? Why? He talks like we were in some kinda suspense thriller movie. He hung up on me again. Well, I think I have to wait until 3pm today to find answers for his weird behavior. Akshu''s PoV As nned I came to the bus stand after a little argument with my mom. Obviously she wanted me to stay back. I sneaked into his car that was waiting for me at the bus stand. How sweet of him to cut off the driver. Of Course we need privacy. "Good morning, Yash." I greeted him as I got in the car. "Good morning, honey." he gave a little peck on my cheek. How romantic! "Thank you for waiting for me. I am really happy, Yash. Is that really you?" I pinched him on his hand. "Sss... you little devil. It hurts, de!" "A I love it. It''s like I am already your wife." "Love what?" "You calling me de. It''s very intimate. You know I have never let my friends who are boys call me that. That is specially reserved for you." "I have never called anyone like that before!" He said. "You better don''t!" Heughed. OMG, his dimples. How I admired his dimple in a picture before. Now he is all mine! Only mine! "I love your dimple." I touched his cheek with my finger. "I know. You have told me that before." he said with that heart melting smile again. "Stop smiling at me like that!" "Haha! what! you don''t want me to be happy?" He asked me. "Can you pull over?" "why?" "Please!" He pulled over to the side and turned to look at me. "I want you to always be happy!" I kissed him on his lips. He was surprised at first and then warmed up to kiss me back. He grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to him. "Shia, We won''t go to Chennai if you are doing this." he broke our kiss and tucked my loose hair behind my ears. "I don''t know why I am doing this. But I couldn''t stop myself from kissing you. I... um.. I couldn''t stop thinking all bad about us." I said looking at my feet. "Baby, Look at me!" he cupped my cheeks and made me look at him. He brushed his nose with mine and joined our foreheads. "Honey, I know what that feeling is. Because I am experiencing it now. I...uh... How to put it in words? Sorry if it hurt you, honey. I know what sex is. I am old at it. You are naive. I bet you not even have book knowledge on what sex is. Why am I telling you this? It''s hard for me to control myself when I know everything. But it''s even harder for you to control because you are curious. Baby, I want to do it the right way! You are precious to me. The feeling you put in me is priceless. I just have to value it. Maybe we should wait until your mom gives us a green signal! What do you say?" He spoke looking me in the eye and all I did was just inhale his scent and lost in his touch. I just jumped on him iming his lips again. The deserted road gave us all advantage. I just want him more after hearing him talk. He is in love with me. Every cell of my body needs his warmth. "SHIA, Honey, You are incredible!" He started kissing me again. I just don''t want this time to end. I love this. I love him. I love to live in this minute. "This is not going to get us anywhere. Get down and go to the back seat." he said after a long kiss. "Yash!" I pouted at him. "Please, Shia. You are very hard to resist. Get down now!" He is serious now. Maybe he is right. I should control my hormones. It''s all over the ce. He started driving with the songs on and me in the back seat. I felt sleepy. "Shia, Wake up! Baby!" I woke up when he shuffled me. "Sorry, Did I sleep too long?" I asked him. "Nope, Not long. Just 2hours." He said with a little glint of teasing. "Sorry!" I said sheepishly. Actually I am embarrassed. I mean who will sleep in such a romantic journey? "Haha it''s ok. Come we shall have some brunch and start again." It was a small restaurant built a little in on the highway. The restaurant is pretty full at the moment. We didn''t get a parking space. "This ce is full, Yash. Can''t we go to some other ce with less crowd?" I asked him. "Secluded ce with you? No, Crowded ce is safe!" he said yfully. "Stop talking like I am going to rape you." I hit him on his shoulder. A man came to us and offered to help with the parking. He said there is a parking lot on the highway and if we call him after we are done he will bring the car to us. We cross checked with the reception and gave our keys. We started waiting for our table. "I can''t believe you just wait in a small restaurant just like any of us." I told him. "I love ces where people don''t recognise me, baby." "Me too." I said. "Hey Hi, sir. Mr.Yadav Rishid. Wow, I couldn''t believe my eyes! Can we have a picture together? OMG! You are so handsome." a girl of my age jumped at us. She never left her eyes on him. "Hi! Please don''t make a scene, miss. Of Course we can take a picture." he posed for a picture with her. "You are still with that heroine? Are you going to marry her sir? Your chemistry is awesome!" She went on and on. "Sorry, miss. I don''t discuss my private life. Now if you will, please excuse me." "Oh, sure. bye sir! It''s surprising and nice meeting you!" Huh! Finally! He looked at me with a sorry face after she left. "A, Don''t look at me like that. If I met you like this, my questions would have been the same. No offence taken, sweet heart." I reassured him. I least cared about his life before me. There was thismotion in the waiting hall suddenly and everyone started to go out talking about an ident. We ran too to see our car crushed! Chapter 45: 45. Akshitha Brings Danger To All? Chapter 45: 45. Akshitha Brings Danger To All? Kavya''s PoV He called me from a different number? I hurriedly checked my phone for the number Akshu sent me. I got from her the number from which Vishwa called to threaten her when she was in Park Sheraton. That was not the number Vishwa gave me. I was wondering why he asked her if I had not shared his number with her when he didn''t call her from the number he gave me. I checked for the numbers she sent me and the one he called me from now. Nope, They are both different. How many numbers does he have? I waited so long for Akshu toe. But she didn''te until I started from pg. I tried calling her phone but I got no answer. I put the address he gave me in the Maps. It was 30minutes away. I sent a message to Akshu stating that I am out to meet one of my friends. I don''t want to scare her and upset her mood. She is very happy now. I started the scooty and followed the directions. Since it''s an odd hour the traffic is kinda ok. It''s damn sunny and I hate driving in this weather. The map says I reached the spot. But all I see is a Jain temple and a lot of crowd. Am I tricked again? Is this some kind of sick joke? Or am I in danger again? I am dumb enough to believe him again after all he did to me?! "Don''t react, Kavya. Just be casual. Come with me." someone talked from my back. A girl. I turned to see who that is. This girl? I saw her with Vishwa in the mall. What''s her name? Nita, Yes. What the hell is she doing here? "I''m leaving." I hopped on my scooty to start but she grabbed my hands and took the keys. "Don''t make a scene and attract attention. Nowe with me like a good girl." she spoke, smiling. What the hell did she think? I''m not going to go with her. I resisted but then she was too strong to knock off. I picked up my phone to call Vishwa. What did he think of himself? "Ah ha, No phones dear. See the hoardings? No phone in the temple premises.¡± She took my phone too. I felt helpless. I went along with her. Once inside the temple, she took me to the shrine. It looks like some celebration here. This ce is safe. If I feel threatened, I can always scream and get help. I want to see what this is all about. I don''t want to pop it before I get answers. There is a little room behind the shrine where she took me to. "Come in, Kavya!" Vishwa was there. "What nonsense is all this? You said we will meet in your home and where is your mom? What are you up to, Vishwa? Don''t tell me you are into some bandits or mafia!" I told him. I am scared. My stupid heart never listens to me. I fell for the wrong man. "Haha, No, Kavya. It''s worse than that." he said with a bitter smile. "I... Uh... I am leaving. I don''t want to see you again." I tried to go out. But that girl is in the way between me and the door. "You don''t want answers? I thought you might want to give me a chance." He said. "Why would I do that when you tricked me into falling in love with you? You spoiled my dignity and decorum when you couldn''t do whatever you had nned on me. Don''t you ever think I will let you ruin me ever again." "Is that so? Kavya, do you really think I put that photo of yours on that damn website?" how sincere his voice sounds! My heart says ''No'' as an answer to his question. But I want to hear it from him. I stayed quiet. "You know why you are here? Because your heart still refuses to believe that I did such a horrible thing to you. Because you still love me. Believe me when I say this, Kavya. I love You!" He said. "God! Why are you so confusing. Why did you call me now?" "Nope, It''s you who called me!" "Um... I want to talk to you in private." I said looking at her. "Nita, wait for my call." he said looking at her. She left. "Ask me whatever you want. I will answer you." he said with his hands criss crossed on his chest. "Do you really love me?" "I do." "From when?" "From the day I started talking to you!" "Really?" I don''t know if to believe him or not. But my heart did a somersault now. "True, Kavya! And I know you had a liking for me from the day you saw me." Well! That''s a good way to embarrass. "Uh... No I don''t." I defended myself. "Haha, next question." I think I terribly failed at hiding my liking. "What did you n on your birthday? To have um... to get physical with me?" It was so hard for me to say that out loud. "Haha, You are so cute when you get embarrassed. I wanted to have a great eve with you dancing the heart out on my birthday. Nope, I didn''t n on getting physical on that day!" "But, you made bruises on me,.." I said looking down. I am not sure what I feel now. "Did I? They are called hickeys, baby! Not bruises. Bruises are made when you are forced. Hickeys, well, you earn it!" GOD, How embarrassing! "um... I thought you... uh..misused me by adding alcohol in our drinks." "I did ask the bartender to add a little wine to your drink. True, but that was just to make your inhibitions vanish. Not to get you on my bed!" "Why didn''t you say anything when we met in the office the next day?" "I was fired from our office. I was not in a mood to talk." "Why were you fired?" "Because I didn''t want to do what they wanted me to do." "What? Why? Who?" "I said I am not interested. So they fired me. Someone from our office." ¡°Interested in doing what?¡± ¡°I cannot say that. You will be safe only when you don''t know anything. If they know that you know, they mighte for you sooner.¡± "God, I don''t understand anything. Alright, were you angry with Akshu and me when Akshu spoke threateningly to you?" "Nope, I was actually happy that you have a great protective friend." "What? Then why did you call her and threaten to spoil her name and mine?" "I did not call her. I have never spoken to her on the phone. The only time I spoke to her was when I invited her to my party!" WHAT? WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT? "So you say, you did not trap her in the same room with Yadav Rishid? You say you did not call her? You say you did not put my picture on that filthy page?" "Nope, I did nothing in that list you said." Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. God, I sat on the floor with my hands palming my face. What is he talking about? If it''s not him all this time, then who? What did I ever do to someone to stoop this low to get back at me? "I dont understand. If not you, then who? I never did anything bad to anyone as I know of!" "I know, You are targeted because you have something inmon with your friend Akshitha. She is in danger too. Because of her, we are all in danger now. Well I am in danger because I love you." ¡°You love me? Then who is this Nita?¡± I asked him. ¡°She was a past mistake of mine. That was long before I saw you. She knew you were there in the mall and she was paid to talk like that to me. She knew all along that you were listening.¡± ¡°What? Who paid her to do that? What do they gain from that?¡± ¡°The same people who put your picture on that site and framed me badly in your eyes. They want me to stay clear of you.¡± I looked up at him. He said he will answer my questions and clear the air. But now I am totally confused. I''m in a deeper mess! Chapter 46: 46. Planned Accident, Again? Chapter 46: 46. nned ident, Again? Akshu''s PoV Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. It was a horrible ident. People rushed to the car to see what happened. Yash put on his cap and called the cops immediately. We said it''s our car and people made way for us. The driver was in a bad condition. Yash called the ambnce. I have this problem of feeling nauseous when I see blood. Yash caught me at the right time before I fell. "Honey, Are you alright? Here, Go back and wait in the restaurant. I will be with you in no time." he said, helping me out of the crowd. "I am scared, Yash! It was horrible. It should have been us." I started crying. I was totally shaken by what I saw. "Listen to me now. You don''t have to be scared. idents happen, dear. I will take care of it. Now please be safe in there." he walked me to the restaurant. I understand he needs to be in that ce. It''s more important than soothing me. "I''m ok, Yash. You be careful out there." I sent him with a hug. "I will. Love you." he kissed my forehead. I waited impatiently for more than an hour before he came to me again. He looked tired. I ran to him. I am happy to be on his side to make him feel better. "Was the man ok?" I asked him. "He was alive when they took him to the hospital. I don''t know his status yet." "I hope he is ok." "He should be. Honey, the police are here for the formalities. We don''t have to go to the police station. But it may take another hour or so before we go on." "No worries. I am ok as long as you are with me." I sat near him. He sat back with his head looking up at the ceiling. He is exhausted. I made an order of coffee and a sandwich. "Here, Yash. Eat. You look very tired." I gave him the sandwich. He took it without a word. I gave him his coffee and had mine too. "You behave just like my mom." he said, caressing my cheek. "haha, am I now? Something is bothering you. What is it?" I asked him. He is deeply thinking about something. "Shia, Would you listen to me if I say something?" "Just tell me, Yash." "I want you to stay away from me." "What? Not again!" I don''t know. Is he serious? "Shia, I''m getting a bad vibe from everything that is happening around us. Or you to be specific. I need to know if it is after you or me." "We can file a policeint. Why should I be away from you? I can''t! I won''t!" I said. I''m angry. "Shia, please. It doesn''t mean we are breaking up. I just want whoever is watching us, to know that we are not together." "Is it necessary? I am not going to leave your side." "Honey! Plea..." I cut him off. "We will talk about thister. Don''t spoil my mood more than it already is." I stopped him. We are done with the police formalities. The car is good for nothing. Yash has called someone named Joshua to bring him a car. I asked him to take me to the hospital where that man was admitted. The police said he made it out of danger. The police worked so fast and let the family know of his ident. When we went to the hospital, a woman and 2 kids were crying outside the ICU. It pricked my heart. We saw the man covered in bandages and tubes and wires all over him. Tough sight to see. "Please, Don''t cry. He will be alright. We are deeply sorry that it happened in our car." I spoke to that lady. "It''s all our fate. It''s his job and you have nothing to do with this. Thank you for your kind words. Also thank you for checking on us." thatdy spoke while crying. She was very considerate. The children must be around the start of teen age.Yash came back after talking with the doctor about his condition. I saw him with hopeful eyes. He gave a slight nod to me that spread calmness in my heart. "Madam, I am sorry for what happened. It''s a hit and run. Eye witness says it was a truck that hit our car. But the police couldn''t track any truck that went by this way. We will do what we can to find the truck driver. About your husband''s condition, he is out of danger. He survived this ident. He has bad fractures but luckily no internal damages and hemorrhage. It may take almost 3months for him to get back up. He is sedated now to be unconscious to make him feel painless." "Thank you so much, sir!" thatdy started crying. It''s heartbreaking to watch. "Please madam, I know how hard it is for you. I paid all the hospital bills. I spoke to the management to charge me for his entire recovery. Here is a cheque for Rs.5khs. To keep your lives going until he gets back up. This is my card. You can call this number anytime if you need help." I am amazed! We left the hospital and started waiting for Joshua toe and get us! "I am so much in love with your heart, Yash. The way you responded to this dreadful situation, the responsibility you showed to that man''s family is just amazing. Why are you so good?" I leaned on his shoulder. "I am not a good man, Shia!" he said. He is not himself now. He is still thinking about staying away from me? He better not! "Are you ok?" I turned his face to look at me. "Honey, please. You need to go to chennai. I have something to do here." Is he going to send me away alone? After so many denials and ps, I finally got him to ept his feelings just yesterday. Why does this have to happen today? Ugh! "I will go with you." If he is stubborn to send me away, I am stubborn to stick with him. He didn''t speak a word. He got back into his shell? Again? A car came by the hospital we were waiting in. Yash went out and I ran behind him. I was shocked to see the man who got down! I know this man. No, This man knows me. He was the one who helped me get to the hospital when I was hit by a car. What is he doing here? I clutched Yash''s hand tight and stopped him. "Yash, This man. He is the one who helped me on that day. When I had i.." "I know!" he said. What? What is happening around me? "Hi Joshua, I trust her with you. Get her safely to Chennai." Wait what? He is sending me away with this man?! Who is he? How did he know me and how did Yash Know him? "Yes sir." that Joshua said. "Shia, He will drop you safely at your pg." he said. "But I said I will go with you!" "Akshitha, Stop now. Just listen to what I say. Now go." he yelled at me. He called me by my full name? He is angry. He doesn''t want me to be with him. He wants me to go. GO AWAY!? I am scared to look at him angry. Maybe he will get back to me once he sorts this all out. I got in the car without a word. They both talked for a brief moment before Joshua got in and we drove off. I hope he comes back to me. I have this feeling that he is going to distance himself from Me! Chapter 47: 47. Loving A Doc! Chapter 47: 47. Loving A Doc! Shiva''s PoV Yadav is stuck somewhere between Coonoor and Chennai. His car met with an ident and luckily he and the girl were not in when that happened. I don''t know why he came with her. He was clearly denying his feelings for her. But I am happy that he finally has found his love. He spoke worriedly to me. He suspects something is wrong. I mean it''s quitemon to suspect when everything around us goes wrong more often. But I truly hope it''s just an ident and everything is mere coincidence. "Shiva, What is eating your mind?" Dheeksha asked me. "Nothing, Dheekshu. Just thinking about the situation Yadav is in now." I said. We had ns to meet tonight for dinner but Dheekshu had to be at the hospital at night so she came in for lunch. "You haven''t eaten anything yet. We get very little time, Shiva. Don''t waste it!" "Sorry, Dheekshu. This ident rekindled my memories. I just remembered my dad." "Why? What happened to him?" "He met with an ident 6years ago. He was in the hospital for 3dreadful days. He never came back. Actually it was your hospital." "Oh I''m sorry, Shiva. I didn''t know." She ced her hands on mine. "It''s not our hospital. My mom is the dean there. There are many shareholders in that hospital. My mom owns 15% of shares only." she added. We sort of developed these mutual feelings for eachother in the past week. We chatted for hours in the night and spoke anything and everything. I like her. I like herpany! We both didn''t say it in words yet but we both know. "Actually, I was just out from my masters degree at that time. Dad had taken insurance very recently before his ident. That money helped us too. Besides I am lucky, Yadav found me and gave me a job with a hefty sum as sry. It''s because of him, I live a luxurious life now with my mom." "I understand. My dad passed away too. In a heart attack. Since my mom was a doctor, she donated every other part of dad to the needy people. She is a strong woman, Shiva. She never shed a tear for my dad. She was brave enough toe out of it very soon and helped us out too." R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Good for you." I honestly didn''t know what to say. I know she spoke about her dad to make me feel better. "Ok! enough gloomy sentiments. Talk to me like a young man talks to a beautiful girl." "Haha where is that beautiful girl you were talking about?" "Shiva!" she pouted at me. How cute is she!? "Dheeksha, I want to take you to my home." I said. Her eyes grew bigger and I saw a tinge of crimson on her cheeks. Beautiful! "To introduce you to my mom!" I added. "Oh! um... sure. Anytime." she said hurriedly. I sensed a little disappointment in her voice. "What did you think? " I asked her. "Huh, I thought you finally became man enough to try something." she murmured but loud enough for me to hear. "What did you say?" "Hehe, You want to hear that again? I said you are a Thayir Saadham (curd rice)!" She is impossible. "What?" "um...Curd rice is yum. You haven''t tasted it yet!" she pushed the bowl to me. "Will you marry me, Dheeksha?" I asked her, looking her in the eye while holding her hand. She didn''t even blink. I gave a little squeeze on her hand and she got back. "What did you just ask? Come again." "I asked you, will you marry me?" "Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes I will! Omg, I never expect you to make this move this soon! Wow!" she went on! "haha! How else will I prove that I am not a curd rice to you? " I said. "Gosh!" she averted her gaze from me and looked everywhere. She is so cute looking embarrassed! "You are so beautiful, Dheeksha! You have no idea what you are doing to me." "I love you, Shiva! My love is love at second sight." "Haha, I have never heard of that before." "The first time we met, I didn''t see you properly. I was afraid. But the second time made the spark in me. So mine is love at second sight." "Hahaha." "You didn''t tell me yet!" She asked. "Tell you what?" "I love you dear, Dheeksha. You are my love. You are my life. I will not live a day without you. I will do anything for you. You are my sunshine. You are my.." I cut her off. "Whoa Whoa, I love you!" I said, stopping her. "Are you really a doctor?" I added when I saw her twinkling eyes. "Yes, I studied 7long years, and am still studying. I am a doctor!" she said "You don''t talk like one. You talk like a schoolgirl." "This side of me is exposed only to my man." She said with drugged eyes that gave me high instantly. "I love you, Dheeksha." "Are we going to be vegetarian lovers?" she asked me with a sad face. "What?" "No non-veg until we marry?" "Haha this is not the right ce dear." "So you know what I meant?" she asked me, surprised. What did she think of me? "I thought you meant kissing the life out of you, finding out your sensitive spots, feeling you with my palms, lips and tongue! Did you mean something else?" I asked her calm andposed. She went into shock mode again but now she refused to see me! "Dheeksha!" "mmm" "What happened? " "um... you are really bad!" "Haha I haven''t done anything yet!" "Shiva!" She whined. "Ok ok, We shall have it for another day where situations are better." "Bad boy!" She said disappointed. I hate to keep her waiting but I have a lot of important work to tend to before Yadav arrives and this is not the right ce to get hard. We left the restaurant and parted ways for our ces. Yadav won''te until evening. Yadav has called Mike to his ce now. I am worried for him. He interlinks everything that''s happening. I wish whatever that is going on around him ends soon so that his life will be settled with that girl. I totally believe that girl will make his life colorful and joyous! I am intrigued by a fact. Dheeksha has no dad. Yadav''s girlfriend had no dad. I lost my dad too. There were loads of files on my table regarding the transfer of our insurance policy. I have to clear them for further processing. Yadav has given me that authority to take important decisions at times of his absence. But this time I want to wait for his approval before doing this. Chapter 48: 48. Who Is Behind This? Chapter 48: 48. Who Is Behind This? Yadav''s PoV I really didn''t want Shia to go alone like that. But for now, it is better than staying with me. Moreover, Joshua is very much reliable. I trust him with her. It was heartbreaking to see her go with a frown on her face. But she was so adamant to be with me. With a heavy heart I yelled at her to make her go. After they went off, I waited for about 20minutes before Mike came. Shiva said it must all be a coincidence. I strongly believe there is more to the things that the eye can see. For some reasons, I think these dangers are all plotted for Shia. I don''t know why! "Sir!" Mike halted his car in front of me and got down to greet me. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Mike, Get in. We have so much work." We both hopped in the car. "Sir, I got the man who called you the other day and demanded you toe to the park." "Wonderful, How did you get him?" I asked him, amazed. "With the number you gave us." "What? The police said it was on a dead man''s name." I know all along that I can rely on him as the police department has some boundaries. "Of Course yes, sir. But we know some loopholes to get to the shop where that man bought this sim. Unlucky for him, it was a little shop near the man''s home itself. The shopkeeper knew this guy and also had a register where he had written all his sold sim, so when we asked for it, he showed us the home right away." "Did you threaten him?" "haha no, sir. We only get physical with our targets." "Great, Who is he!?" I asked him. "Remember the godown where we rescued the girl, sir? He was the night security for that ce." "God, Any information that is useful from him?" "He said he heard someone talk about you and your intervention. He thought he could make some money from you. But as I said, he is very unlucky. When he called you for threatening, one of the henchmen caught him red-handed. But he has given you so much information already. So they made him talk like he can give you information to bring you to that park. That was a n for your assassination. They have threatened him to kill but left him alive with a warning and an injection. He is dying of cancer already. We checked the reports and his blood has the same cancer cell aggravating chemicals just like the other girl at the orphanage. So he gave us all the information." So that was why his tonepletely changed from demanding to pleading all of a sudden. "Omg, Where is he now? Did he know who was behind this? Did he give us any names?" "Sir, they left him with cancer, only because he doesn''t know the main people involved. We showed him our database of culprits and he identified some henchmen. We are next to bring them down." "Wonderful job, Mike. I''m impressed! Mike, make it fast. I''m afraid our enemies are faster. We met with an ident now. I want to know if it''s just an ident or not. Also I want you to bring in all the details on Akshitha. Keep it confidential. I want your direct involvement in this. She is very important, Mike.¡± I gave him the gist of what happened earlier and some details of Shia. I am happy that we are one step closer to the enemy. Akshu''s PoV It''s been a week since I saw him. We have joined his office. It''s our second week here. But no sign of him yet. I terribly miss him. Millions of texts and phone calls, all with no answer. I''m just happy because I asked for his well being from aunty. I don''t know what has happened to him to avoid me like a gue. To top this all, I met Raajiv and his familyst sunday. It was out of pressure. But still I liked them. I couldn''t meet his sister though. Talking to rtives who know your parents'' childhood is an awesome experience. I have never had the privilege of having a grandma or grandpa. Seeing her on her deathbed is very painful. She held my hands and started talking like usual. "Dear, I am so sorry that I could not hold you when you were little. I am so sorry that we could not stand by you on all your special asions. But believe me dear, there is not one day passed in my life where I have not thought about you and your father. The day I heard that your dad is no more, I was dead. This is all because of your grandpa''s stubborn nature and my inability to make him understand what is important. Now that he is gone, I wish to unite this family. I want you and Raajiv to marry before I die." She spoke long. But I was dumbstruck. How will I deny an olddy on her deathbed? She spoke about my dad''s childhood. How he will study, How he will ace the exams, How good he is at sports, How many cups he has won and so on! Raajiv greeted me well but behaved very decently and professionally. Devaki aunt is very cool and loving. They never spoke a word about the wedding. They spoke about me and mom, How they got to know us, And so on! How will I escape this wedding? Mom is so stubborn. This aunt and family have no fault to point at. Yash is not supportive now. He is not even talking to me. What do I have, to stop this? Nothing! I was put into an in-house project that helps us organise the data of all our employees'' details. Also we were assigned to refer to the website of the new insurancepany to know their database. Myself and Adithi were assigned to go to their office to see their software. Their database holds information like policy number, name, medical details, ims, processed im ids etc. One detail intrigued me so much. The number of ident ims were very huge aspared to the number of in-hospital medical ims. And no O ve blood group ident im holder. How weird! There is no one in the ident list with O ve blood group? A fascinating fact. I took a print out of the list without them knowing. I pulled out the details of theirst 10years ident ims. It was enormous with 70 pages. I am usually interested in studying the details and knowing all possible things that can happen to us. Weirdly that will give me some calmness and thankfulness for what I am blessed with! This will make a census of idents and a probability of getting into idents based on blood group. I want to divert my mind from Yash. Something that will eat my time and mind is what I am looking for. This will be perfect to kill my time without Yash. Kavya has been very quiet and behaving indifferently since I came back. I am in grief too that I didn''t care to ask her what her problem was. I should do it at least today. What are friends for if we don''t care to solve their problems!? Chapter 49: 49. Accidents And Cancer? Chapter 49: 49. idents And Cancer? Kavya''s PoV "Kavi, What''s your problem? Why have you been so gloomy since I came back?" Akshu asked me after getting back from our new office. We now have the same timing and wee and go by office cab. Looks like it''s pulsory'' for us to take the cab. Looks like Yadav has given strict orders not to drive bikes anymore. Akshu too has been very dull for the past week since she came back from Coonoor. But I figured it out. Yadav has not visited us even once in the past week. She is missing him. "That''s nothing, Akshu. I''m fine." I told her. I don''t know what I am thinking, myself and I have no intentions to tell this to her until I get my head cleared. "I know you better than that. Spill!" she spoke authoritatively. "It''s really nothing, Akshu! I... I met Vishwa." I told her. "What the hell? Is he bothering you again?" "No, No no! I called him to meet. He didn''t." I said with my head hung low. "Are you nuts?" She is beyond angry. "Please, Akshu. I couldn''t push him out of my heart." "After all he did to you?" "He didn''t do anything." "Oh he said that? And you believed him? You sure are nuts." "Akshu, please, He said he loves me." "And you melted?" ¡°No, but he said something different. He is¡­¡± She cut me off. ¡°Stop it, Kavi. He is a low life. He spoiled your reputation and god knows how many other girls are involved.¡± She shouted at the top of her voice and I could no longer hear her talk shit on him. ¡°Shut up, Akshu. You think Vishwa is a low life because he tried to spoil my reputation? I think Yadav is a low life who cannot sleep without fucking a girl. God knows how many girls he has spoiled.¡± I shouted even more and she stood there dumbstruck. I know I crossed the line. I was angry. ¡°At least Yash didn''t go behind girls who are not his type. Don''t you darepare him to that filth.¡± She warned me and I retreated. I know I was wrong. "Will you please listen for a minute?" I pleased her. She has fixed him as a wrong person in her heart and is sticking to it. I told her everything that happened on that day to her. (shback...) "What ismon between me and Akshu?" I asked Vishwa. "I''m not sure." "Vishwa please be open to me. Tell me what exactly we are into?" "Kavya, I''m not a good man. I am from a middle ss family. But I am a studious person. I got sponsors and schrships to study in a prestigious college. I startedparing my standards with those of the rich guys who wereing there. I got a badpany at that time who promised me a good amount for a part time job. Once I started getting money, girls threw themselves at me and I used them. I am not proud of it now." he said with a voice full of regret. "What is that part time job?" I disregarded that girls part as it hit my heart hard. "They would give me the pictures of some girls and boys in our college. I should befriend them and take them to the ce they tell me. Once they get what they want from them, I will get arge sum of money." "What are they behind? Who paid you?" This is something more dangerous than I thought. "I have no idea. I don''t know who paid me. It was all through mail. My ssmate who introduced me to them will give me my pay." "What happened to the people whom you left with them? Have you ever felt guilty for what you have done?" "I have never looked back at what happened to them until now, Kavya." "Huh, Why would you after you get your money?" All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Kavya, please. I know I did something terrible. But at that time all I cared for was money. But now when I look back at all the people whom I turned to them, I am scared for my fate." I can see he is truly sorry. "What happened to them?" "Some of them are dead by idents and most of them are dead by cancer." (shback ends) What? What is this all about? Some medical mafia? Someone who tests illegal medicines on us? Why choose specific people to test it on? Why me and Akshu? Is this all because we went to that Orphanage? Yadav''s PoV Mike got those henchmen. Mike is the best. He got some important information from them. Now I am going there to find out what he has found. I am very desperate to see Shia. I miss her terribly. Joshua is doing his job very perfectly. He keeps me posted at all her moves. Last weekend, she met with her aunt''s family. I had a detailed report on Dr.Raajiv and his family. I was super angry at her but I know her mother is very dictative. I didn''t like it one bit that she went and saw him. Shiva is keeping an eye on her in our office. Mike is working on her personal information too. So far nothing is odd except that her father died in an ident very unexpectedly. And again, idents are very intriguing. "Sir, Akshitha is in Annai Home. Kavya and her just got there." Joshua called me to inform me. Why the hell is she there again? She will never listen to me. "Joshua, get her out of there. NOW." "Sir, she hase to teach the kids some hand crafts." "Whatever, I want her out of that ce right now. Call me once she gets in the pg safe." "Yes, sir." She is a pain in the ass. I told her very clearly not to roam around on her own. I am getting a call from her. She is making me look like a hard head man to even me. It''s very hard to avoid her calls and messages. But she wouldn''t stop. Her cute messages and whines are making me restless. It makes it hard for me to stay away. "Shia!" I picked her call up. It''s important to get her out of there. She won''t listen to Joshua. She may listen to me. "Yash, Love you! Muah Muah muah!" she gave me kisses! I''m dying for it. "Shia, Honey, Please go to your pg." "When I say I love you, you have to say it back." She demanded. "God, Love you, honey! Now listen, this is serious. Now get the hell outta there." "Yash, I am not alone. I came with Kavya. We promised aunty that we will teach the kids what we know. Only on saturdays. Just 2hours, Please!" I couldn''t resist her cuteness. "Shia, Baby! Please, I promise you, you can do this once I get a clear picture on who is behind all that is happening. Not now. Go with Joshua now." "Let Joshua sit with us when we are here. We will go with him once we are done." "Shia!" She always tests my patience. "Please!" God, she is so cute. "God alright, Just for today. You are not going there next weekend. I will tell you when It is ok for you to go. Period!" "Love you, Ok. I miss you ,Yash. Will youe to the office at least next week?" "Will try, honey. I miss you too. Now be safe and don''t call me or message me." "You are bad. You won''t see me. You won''t call me. You won''t message me. You don''t want me to do any of them too? What kind of lovers are we?" "A matured andplicated kind. Love you! Bye!" I disconnected the call. The more I hear her, the more I want to see her. When I reached Mike''s ce, I saw him with a serious face. "What''s new Mike!?" "Sir, This is big. They told me what they knew. But when we trail up thework, we find nobody. Our only clue is a name. But that doesn''t ring a bell to me." "Who is that?" "Rudramoorthy." I know no one of that name. Don''t ring a bell for me too! Chapter 50: 50. Make Out In The Office? Chapter 50: 50. Make Out In The Office? Akshu''s PoV I am super angry at Kavya. But she believes that Vishwa is now a good man. She still loves him. She spoke very ill of Yash. But I understood why she did what she did. I cannot take a word against Yash even from my mom. So I know how hurtful it will be for her when I talk badly of Vishwa. I''m totally confused on what to do with her now. I cannot let her see him and also I cannot stop her from seeing him. We are now on the way to our office. Joshua ising behind our cab on a bike. It''s super crazy to be followed by someone all the time. He keeps a decent distance though. Joshua spoke to me like a friend When he dropped me in my pg on that day. I was surprised to know that Yash was so worried about my safety. Joshua said he''s been following me from the day when I met Yash face to face in the hotel. I can sense something is wrong around me but I don''t know what exactly is that. All I know is one thing. Yash is my everything. If he is with me, I will be happy, safe, cherished, loved and everything that defines happiness! "Akshitha, Good morning. Our boss is here today. He wants to see you." the receptionist on our floor sang to me. I basically hate all the beautiful girls who work here. The only thing that calms my nerves is that he dont have a Personal Assistant. Shiva takes care of it all. "Why, Thank you, Samantha. I will see him." I put on my best smile to hide my hate for her. "He is on the 7th floor. He expects you in another 10minutes. He is very strict on time. Don''t bete." "Um...Sure." Ugh! She talks like she has known him for years. Maybe that is true. But I don''t like it. Not one bit. I ran to the elevator to go to the 7th floor. I work on the 3rd floor. As promised he came to see me. I''m overwhelmed by his love. It''s unbearable. I rushed out of the elevator and went in calm andposed. I don''t want everyone to think I am crazy. The receptionist there guided me to his room. I knocked on the door and waited for his voice. "Yes!" Oh my god, Hearing him is like a melody to my ears. How much I missed him! I opened the door and went in. He was standing leaning in front of the desk with his arms crisscrossed. He was in his dark blue formal shirt and grayish ck jeans. OMG! "Like what you see? " he raised his eyebrows at me. Gosh! How long have I been seeing him still on the doorstep? Embarrassing! "Of Course I do!" I went in closing the door behind me. "You have no idea how much I miss you." he pulled me to his chest when I got to him. I felt like home. "I miss you too, Yash." I hugged him tight. "So how do you like your new job? Interesting?" He lifted me up and sat me on the desk and stood between my legs. "I love it." I said, closing my eyes. The friction between our thighs is making funny things to me. "You love it? How about this?" He gripped my thighs and pulled me closer to him. Now our lips are just a centimeter away. His breath fanning my face, he blew on my lips that I parted my lips on his sudden move. "Shia, You are making it impossible for me to stay away from you." he spoke without finishing what he started. All I want now is a kiss from him that says I am his and he is mine. I pulled his shirt and started kissing him. OMG, I love how he sucks me out. I kiss him too with the same passion. Our kiss intensified and so were his hands exploring me. He drew lines on my thighs and it felt like I am naked in front of him. I wore cotton pants and a button up shirt today. He trailed his hands above to the rim of my shirt and pulled it up. He grew impatient when he felt my slip underneath. I wanted to badly feel his hands on me so I helped him pull out my slip too. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Fuck, Shia!" he cursed when he touched my bare waist. We broke our kiss and he started trailing his kisses down to my jaw and neck. "Yash!" I gripped him so tight. He trailed his hands up to my navel and dipped his finger. GOD! "Yash!" I hugged him tight. "Stop me now, Shia. NOW!" his hands trailed up even more doing things that are opposite of what he said. I don''t want to stop him. "You can stop if you don''t want m....huh!" I stopped talking. "Fuck, So soft! Do I look like a saint to you?" he spoke while grabbing my boob. "Yash!" I moaned his name for every move he made on me. He fondled my boobs on my underwear still sucking on my neck. He stopped when he felt my already hardened nipples. "You are aroused." he said with a husky voice. I shook my head in a No. Oh my god he is going to kill me. His hands tightened his grip on me. "May Ie in, Sir." someone is at the door. Shit! He withdrew his hands on me and stood facing the other direction. "Get yourself straight and sit down." he told me. I hurriedly corrected myself and sat on the chair. He went back and sat on his chair. "Yes!" his voice boomed in the room. I am too shy to see him. What were we doing in his office in the very morning!? "Sir, Ms.Jhanvi is waiting to see you." "I don''t want to see her." Yash said to the receptionist while the door swung open. "Rishi! Where were you for so long? I tried reaching you so many times in the past 2months. Oh, I miss you so much." that famous heroine came in straight at him and hugged him. I felt a sharp sting in my heart. That hug was like more than what we shared a little before. She was literally pressing her on him. Her dress was so flimsy that she left nothing to imagine. Yash never diverted his gaze. Never once did he see me after she came in. It''s like I am invisible to them. "I was a little busy. So what''s up? Did the project you were on done?" he asked her. "Oh Rishi, That movie was done. Now I am all free just for you." she sang to him. I am not hurt because of her. But I am hurt that he didn''t care to at least send me out. I couldn''t bear to watch this shit. "Janvi, You will be my next movie''s heroine. Get yourself ready at the start of next month. Your part may take some 25 to 30 days to shoot." He told her. "Oh Rishi, That doesn''t matter. I am always ready for you. We don''t get to spend timetely. Our chemistry was incredible and our pictures together that came online were beautiful. Why don''t you act as the HERO in your uing movie? We shall be reel and real couples." "Oh no, I love movies. But I''m not into acting. And about the couple talk, you know where I stand with rtionships!" he told her. I thought he would introduce me to her as his partner. Or at least he could have said that he is committed. He said the same thing he has been saying before. Didn''t I make any changes in him? Chapter 51: 51. The Bickering! Chapter 51: 51. The Bickering! Shiva''s PoV I ran to Yadav''s room. I just got in the office building and the news that Janvi is here for Yadav, reached me. This is no good especially when Akshitha is working here. One, Yadav should not entertain such girls anymore. Two, I should help him if he finds it hard to get rid of these girls. Three, Akshitha shouldn''t get any bad idea on Yadav because their rtionship has just started to bud. Four, I was finally happy that he has reformed and I am not letting him get spoiled again. Five, fuck off, I want to spend some time with Dheekshu! I can''t do it if I keep on worrying about Yadav. Akshitha is the right choice to keep him on track. I barged in his room and badly wanted to beat him to pulp on the scene that I saw. He was speaking to Janvi while Akshitha was witnessing. The bad thing is, she was sitting on a chair opposite to him and Janvi was standing close to him near his desk. She was hovering over him. On the first sight, it would definitely look awkward and wrong. I truly don''t know what to do with him! "Yadav, you have a meeting in 5minutes." I told him. There actually is a meeting now with that insurancepany''s people in 30minutes. "Hi Shiva, See I bypassed you this time." Janvi told me. Yeah it''s me who kept her away these 2months. "Hi, Janvi. He was busy." I told her without even looking at her. "Shiva, I told you to wrap that insurance thingy before I get back. Why did you prolong it? Do what''s best for our employees." Yadav told me. "I wanted you to finalize it. The meeting is in 3minutes now." I know he is very particr about the timing. "Janvi, It''s my work hours. Will see youter." Yadav told her. "Aahh, you are not escaping me this time. I want a date and time before I leave this fort." she demanded. I wish he would deny her. "See you in our new film pooja. It won''t be long. See you." he stood up as a signal for her to leave. She left after an awkward hug and a little peck on his cheek which he refused but she gave it anyway. For the whole conversation, Akshitha was sitting idle with her head down. I know how it is! She must be sad or even mad at him. "Shall we leave?" Yadav asked me, picking his phone up from the table. "What about her?" I pointed to Akshitha. "Oh, Akshitha, All the best! I hope you will find your new work interesting." he said. I could clearly see astonishment and agony fill her eyes. I''m even surprised by his behavior with her. "Um...Thank you... Sir?!" She was so unsure. So am I! He nodded at her to leave. She left the room and we were left alone. "Have they arrived already?" he asked me. "Sit down. The meeting is half an hour away. Care to exin what''s going on?" I asked him. "Nothing is going on, Shiva." "You hurt that girl, Why?" "No I didn''t. I... I just ... Leave it alone." He said defeated. "Yadav, I was finally happy about your rtionship with that girl. Why are you doing this?" "God! Shiva, We were getting intimate when that stupid came in. It was so hard for me to stop in the middle. I didn''t want to prolong it. I avoided looking at her because she is driving me crazy." he slumped on his chair. He did what? In his office room? Impossible. She must be something! "Did you think she knew why you behaved so indifferent? I don''t think so!" I told him. "What do you mean?" Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. "I mean she is hurt, idiot!" He looked at me with a sudden realization. What else should I teach this dumby?! He picked up his phone and dialed her number but she didn''t pick up. Yeah, Typical girl behavior. He looked at me with pleasing eyes. How adorable is he! The mighty business tycoon doesn''t know how to calm down a girl? "What? Don''t look at me like that. I can''t do anything about it!" I told him. "I will go see her." he stood up from his chair when his phone rang. I think it was an important call as he went by the window to talk. My phone rang too. Dheekshu! I picked up the call and started talking to her. Yadav''s PoV Shia is a well matured girl. She was not offended when the other girl spoke about my rtionship with Janvi in that restaurant. I think she will be fine with what happened now. Besides, I was getting hard in my pants and I didn''t want to cross my limits with her. That is the only reason I avoided seeing her. I thought it would make her feel insecure if I sent her out when Janvi came in. That is why I kept her in. I tried being professional with her to stop my wild thoughts on her. But I never put myself in her shoes all this time. I realized she was hurt only after Shiva told me. But when I called her to exin, she didn''t pick my call. Mike called me when I was about to go to Shia. It is important! I disconnected the call with Mike when it was time for my meeting. I am a punctual man. "Shiva, It''s time man!" I whispered to him because he was talking on the phone. I don''t know, but he looks so happy nowadays. He is talking on the phone for a long time. I should investigate. "Let''s go." he stood up after done with his call. "Who are you talking to?" I asked him while walking to the conference room. "I will introduce that person to you this weekend," he said with a smile. "So it is a girl?" "Can''t you wait for another 4days?" "Na irundha seri! (I''m ok if you are happy)" I told him. I saw 2 elderly men sitting in the room while we entered. They stood up when we went in. "Hello Mr.Yadav, Nice meeting you." one of them spoke. "Nice meeting you gentlemen, Please!" I showed them their chairs. "We hope you have already gone through all of our benefits. We can assure you that no one can give you so many benefits for this premium. You can cross check, Mr.Yadav." the same man spoke. "I did. We are happy with the monthly amount too. If there are any buts and ifs please state it now. I don''t like fake promises with conditions." "Moorthi sir will exin where we actually state conditions apply." he said and pointed to the man who was just witnessing for the whole time. He started exining things in a very professional manner and I loved it. The only problem I found was, MJ hospitals are the only ce where their every benefit is 100% fruitful. Other hospitals eat 25%! I agreed to extend my business with them because I find itpromising.We signed a bond confirming our deal and wound up the meeting. Rest of the paper works will be done by Shiva. Those gentlemen gave us a form for our employees where they have to fill in all their medical conditions. The premium may vary depending on it. Also they have arranged a free medical camp for all our employees this friday. I felt satisfied. All this while, Shia was constantly pestering my mind. She can''t be sad. That too not because of me. I should be her happiness just like she says. I took the signed copy of the bond and walked towards Shia''s cabin before something stuck in my mind! Chapter 52: 52. Approval For The Wedding? Chapter 52: 52. Approval For The Wedding? Akshu''s PoV I don''t know how to react when he spoke to me so professionally. It''s not like Shiva doesn''t know about us. I have seen him keep an eye on me at constant intervals and intervened at times when some guys tried flirting with me. It''s not possible for him unless Yash has told him to take care of me. I don''t know why he behaved so indifferent all of a sudden. Besides, he spoke to that heroine very casually and he didn''t disclose our rtionship to stop her pursuing him. He spoke like his point of view on rtionships never changed! Who knows, if he had told her about us she may stop seeing him. By not revealing it to her, he messed up the chance of getting rid of her. I may be thinking too much about his behavior. He may have his reasons. But whatever the reason may be, I think his behavior is outrageous. I think he reacts spontaneously. That is who he is, a man focuses only on himself and fails to understand others. I saw Shivaing my way. What is he going to talk about? "Hi, Akshitha." "Hi, Shiva." Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. "Are you ok? I mean with the works?" Awkward! I know he is checking on me. "Um...yeah. I''m fine!" "Good, Uh... Yadav is in the middle of something and he will be free at noon if you wanna talk to him." he said. He is trying to tell me something. "Shiva, I know you know about us. Just tell me what you want to say." I told him. "Well,He didn''t mean to act that way to purposely hurt you. He was ready toe down to talk you out of it but he is held up with work. You see he didn''t visit herest week. He has 20minutes free time at 1pm. You can go straight to his room." "Oh ok, Thank you for taking your time to let me know this. I will talk to him. And I am fine, really." I told him. So he won''t make time for me instead I must fit into his timetable? "If it''s true, then I''m d. Yadav is a wonderful person and I am happy that he is finally settling down with you." He said with true happiness. "I know, I will take care of him. Thank you." I told him. He went away with a little nod. It may take a minute or two toe down and let me know this himself. But he chose his work over me. He didn''t think consoling me was more important. I decided to let him come to me before I talk. Yes, he called me but I ignored him because I was hurt and angry that he let her kiss and hug him in front of me. My phone rang again. It''s Raajiv. God, What the hell does he want now? I should tell him that I cannot marry him. The sooner the better. "Hi, Raajiv." "Hi, Akshu. How are you? Are you free? Can we talk? " "Um.. yes, Tell me." "Are you free this weekend? Mom said we shall take you to our kdeivam temple." "Are we all going?" I want to talk to him in private to let him know my denial of this proposal. "Um yeah, Mom, me, Dheekshu and you." "Oh, Sure! I cane." I must make a chance to be alone with him and tell him. "Cool, I''m looking forward to seeing you. Do you have a Saree?" "Excuse me?" How dare he. "Hey chill, Mom asked me to tell you to wear a saree whileing. I''m ok with anything you wear. You look beautiful in every outfit." "Uh Thank you. Will try. I have some work. Will talk to youter." "Sure, Carry on. Bye, Akshu." "Bye." ugh! I don''t like it one bit but what is so wrong in going to the temple with my extended family when Yash can hug and kiss a girl who is not me in front of me? I decided to m myself up for this weekend. Dheeksha''s PoV I saw Akshitha''s pictures that mom showed me. She is beautiful. I am ok to take her as my sister-in- law. My mom is already searching for a doctor for me. I must tell her about my decision. "Mom." I called as she was getting down the stairs. I just heard here in. "Dheekshu, Didn''t sleep yet? You should be sleeping now. How will you get up early if you are awake now?" "Ma ma, Please! Don''t start your speech. I am awake now because I want to talk to you." "Hmmme into my room." "You are not eating?" "At 11pm? I already had my dinner. I had a meeting with other doctors today. That''s why I am thiste." "Oh ok!" Hmph, I am very much distracted by Shiva that I didn''t even see a meeting on the mail today. "So what''s that important that can''t wait until tomorrow?" "Um...Ma, So bro''s wedding is fixed with that girl huh?" "Yes, I am so happy. You missed seeing her when she came home." "Yeah, We shall meet anytime now. But she is not a doctor, Is she?" "Dheekshu! Who is that?" "Ma?" "You have a man in your heart, who is not a doctor. Who is he?" Well my mom is a genius. She can read between the lines and also is an expert at reading our mannerisms. "Shiva. He is in the Rishid group ofpanies. He is the right hand of Yadav Rishid. A wonderful man. You will like him for sure. Well educated and well settled man. You should meet him, ma!" I said it in a go. I know my mom is very clever. But she caught me even before I breathed out. "Are you sure?" my mom''s modtion changed. "Ma?" "Yadav Rishid has a bad reputation with girls. You say he is his right hand. I can''t trust young men these days with my daughter." "Ma, Shiva has nothing to do with Yadav''s personals. This me on him is outrageous." I can''t stand a word against Shiva. "Haha ok ok. Akshitha ising with us to the temple this saturday. I''m nning for lunch out together. Ask him toe to lunch on saturday. That way Raajiv will also see him." "Thank you, ma. Does this mean a YES?" "I don''t promise anything yet. Let''s see. If me and Raajiv like him, then it will be a Yes." "A thank you, ma." I hugged her. She is the best. I ran to my room and called Shiva. I''m so excited to tell this to him. He wanted to take me to his home too. I wanted to take my mom''s permission before that. If everything goes well, which I know will, Our marriage will happen soon. I can''t wait! But Shiva didn''t pick up the call. Maybe he slept. I let him rest for the day. I went to bed with a load of happy feelings. After reaching the hospital, the first thing in the morning, I called Shiva. He didn''t pick up again?Bad boy. I tried calling him again a littleter and he picked it up this time. Good for him. "You are really bad. I called you yesterday night. It''s ok if you didn''t pick up at that time. But after seeing the missed call, you didn''t care to call me?" I almost shouted. "Shhh, sorry, dear. I was about to call you now and you beat me to it." he said. of course he picked it up at the first ring. Maybe he is telling the truth. "Ok ok, I have happy news for you." "What''s so special?" "I told mom about you. She said she will meet you on Saturday." "What? She didn''t say anything?" "No, My mom is not a strict mother. She is ok with love marriages until the man is man enough. I hope you are!" "You want me to show you I am man enough? Try me! This weekend? At my ce?" "E gross. Not in the very morning. I have patients to attend to." I told him hiding the excitement that he got me with just little words. "Oh gross you say? Ok, You will regret saying that!" "A baby, I love that itsy bitsy romance we do. Don''t cut down on it." I said in a pleading tone. We are already vegetarian lovers and I don''t want him to cut down that little time where we get to be eggetarians! "Haha, Let''s see, So what''s the n?" "We are going to the temple with my bro''s fiance in the morning. We are meeting you up for lunch, with all my family and to be family." "Oh wow, So do you have any advice?" "Oh just be as you are. They will go t just like I did." "Ok Dheekshu, I''m at work and Yadav is waiting, will call youter." "Bear!" I whispered. "Haha I heard it. By the way, I haven''t told him about us yet. Shall I bring him too on saturday?" "Of Course, A best man is always appreciated." "Thank you, sweet heart." He disconnected the call and I started waiting for the weekend! Chapter 53: 53. Something In Common? Chapter 53: 53. Something In Common? Kavya''s PoV Akshu is sad, mad and has mixed negative emotions. It''s really bothering me. Since Vishwa came back, she stopped talking to me as usual. I know she doesn''t trust him, he didn''t give her reasons to trust him. But anyways, she chose to stay out of it. I need solid proof that he is trustworthy and will be a good life partner for me. I decided to let her be until then. "Are you ok?" I asked her. She didn''t even say a word since we came back from the office. It''s bedtime already. "Yeah!" she said. This is not the Akshu I have known for 5years now. "Oh yeah? You have to try better than that." "Kavi, Please leave me alone." "Nope, I want you talking like we used to." "Not now, Kavi." She said irritated. I can''t take it any longer. "We are now. I need to talk to you. I can''t talk if you are gloomy and have a long face." I know she will be ready for me whenever I need her. "Is it about Vishwa?" "Not really!" "Good, because if it is about him, I''m out of it. You know I don''t like this idea of you and him together." "Akshu, I know, but this is really important." "Yeah, Tell me then." "I spoke to Vishwa" "Kavi what did I just say?" "Listen, It''s not about him. It''s about us." I am mad. She can''t even stand his name? He is not bad. At Least now! "Sorry." She retreated. "He said we are in danger. He said we both have something inmon and because of that thing our lives are in danger." "What? And he doesn''t know what this is about? You believe him?" "Akshu, I believe him. I love him. I am going to choose him over anything you put in front of me. So stop talking about believing him." "Ok, Jeez. Sorry." "Listen, Akshu, He thinks, some pharmapany is behind people who have something they desire to test on their medicines. He also said 3 people who he turned to them, during his college days were dead. One by ident and 2 by cancer. He went nk with their contact after his studies but they somehow found him back in our previous office and asked him to turn me in. When he denied, they fired him from his work and framed him for what he didn''t do." "So you say, he didn''t put up your picture on that site? He didn''t make me go into Yash''s suite to spoil my reputation? He didn''t call me to tell me that?" "Yes!" "Why do you think someone framed him bad in your eyes?" Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. "Because they still want that something from me. If we are in talking terms he will warn me. They don''t want me to talk to him." "Now you are both talking and meeting. Won''t they know?" "No, We talk on a different number on a very basic phone. No smart phone!" I showed her the cell phone Vishwa gave me. "Also, he meets me in a Jain temple. Not directly." I added. "Kavi, You know what? Yash is behind someone who he thinks is bringing danger to us. He thinks that I am the target but I think he is the target as he is the one that is hindering them by adopting that orphanage. I never knew you were in danger too." "Yeah, Vishwa said, they have targeted you and found that I have something inmon too. So I am being targeted too." "So you are in danger because of me? Ok, I find one thing unsettling in the whole story. Why did someone want to humiliate me by saying his name? I mean, they made him the bad guy in your eyes because they might have known you both have developed feelings for one another. Why me?" "I have no answer. But I trust him. He didn''t call you that night." I vouched for him. "Ok." She said. "What are we going to do?" I asked her. "I don''t know. I should give the number I got that call from that day to Yash. He may get a lead. We should be more careful. I thought Yash was being over protective when I knew he set up Joshua to be behind me. But now I know there is something serious about it. It must be connected to that orphanage problem. It all started there. That is why he was mad when we went there." She started talking more to herself, putting every detail she knew in order. Her face turned to sorrow all of a sudden. What happened!?!? Yadav''s PoV I''m getting impatient with her. I have been calling her since 8pm. She didn''t pick up my call. It''s 11pm already! I don''t know what I am supposed to do. What does she expect me to do? I know I made a mistake. It''s just a mistake that happened out of inexperience. I never knew Janvi would show up out of nowhere. Imagine if I sent Shia out once Janvi came in. How would she have felt? She would have felt terrible. That is why I kept her in. I distanced myself from Janvi as far as possible but she was all over me which is absolutely not my fault. If I behave rude to her or avoid her, she will go over the media talking all rubbish things about me. Janvi holds records for abusing her ex-rtionships. I care for my reputation after I ammitted with Shia! That kiss which I deliberately denied was forceful from Janvi''s side. I don''t know what should have been done. I have done more than that with her. If I avoid her too much she will definitely smell something fishy. I don''t want to reveal our rtionship until I find that culprit who always brings danger to her or us. I did everything to hold on to her and she is angry and avoiding me for the same reasons? Ridiculous. Actually, she knew what kind of a person I was before. She knew how much I have changed for her, Just to be with her. Shouldn''t she be considerate to at least hear me out? Alright,st try. If she doesn''t pick up my call now, I will wait for her toe to me. I called her again and it rang for the whole call and went to voicemail. I am done trying her. I am true to her. I am ready to apologise for what happened. I am ready to exin to her. I havee all the way to the opposite end of life from where I was, just for her. But she doesn''t have the least trust in me. I think a rtionship that is not built on trust won''tst long. She is clearly overreacting for what happened. I know she is hurt because of my actions. But is it not fair to give me a chance to exin what really I have in my mind behind my behavior? I have her all over me. She filled in my mind and heart. I do everything considering her. But she? I went to bed with a heart ache and loads of determination to leave her alone. If she is better off without me which I have always thought, I should let her be. I should give her space to choose for herself what is better for her life. I hope shees back to me soon. I just figured out, I can''t live without her! Chapter 54: 54. Unresolved Dispute! Chapter 54: 54. Unresolved Dispute! Akshu''s PoV ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. I am an idiot. I left my phone on my office desk. I was quite disappointed with Yash and was not myself for the whole day. Not talking to him and staying mad at him is impossible. I put my phone in silent mode to stop that feeling of calling him after I spoke to Raajiv. He hurt me. He didn''t care about my feelings. He let her touch him. He let her kiss him. I know he did not encourage it but still he didn''t push her away too. I am hurt because of him. He has toe and console me. Damn this heart running behind him. He must not take me for granted. Janvi was so beautiful and perfect. That is why he never took his eyes off of her. He had almost all beautiful girls falling for him and I am the least desirable girl for him. Just like he said, this may be an attraction to him. Why would he want me when Janvi is ready to offer herself to him? If he really loves me and values my feelings he should make it up to me. I won''t step down. I don''t know what I am feeling now? I''m sad, mad and what not! Am I feeling low on myself and feeling insecure about our rtionship? Yes, I am sure of my feelings but I am insecure about his feelings for me. All the while from evening to this time, I have been sad because Yash didn''t try and talk to me. How will he, if my phone is not with me? I am insane just like he says. Just when Kavi said that Vishwa didn''t call me, I remembered I left my phone on my desk. I don''t know how many times Yash has called to talk to me. He is going to be super mad at me tomorrow. Now the tables have turned ? Should I talk to him first? Wouldn''t that make what he did was not wrong? OMG! If he tried talking to me, I really have to make him cool. I have no idea how I am going to do that. Besides, when I think of what happened in the morning now, it''s notpletely his fault today. She was all over him and he clearly didn''t like it. About that goodbye kiss, he said no. She did it anyway. Which again is not his fault. She took that liberty because they might have done it before. When I gave my heart to him, I knew what he was like. I made up my mind to consider him a new man leaving behind his past. So what I did by not talking to him today was not fair. But I couldn''t help but get hurt when that heroine took too much advantage on him. I already didn''t like any girl that works with him. This Janvi is very beautiful and they looked awesome together. I think the jealousy took over me that turned into anger on him and hurt myself. I must be more mature in handling these kinds of things. Yash is a celebrity and I have always known it. Being a touch-me-not is no good to lead a life with him. I have just hurt him and me in the process. I woke up when Kavi pulled my nket away. "Wake up, de. I have been calling you for the past half hour. It''ste." she shouted in my face. God! I didn''t know when I slept. All I had in my mind was Yash. I shouldpromise him. "Thank you for your wonderful morning wish. Good morning!" I greeted her back. "Enough of your sarcasm. Joshua is in our hall. Waiting for you. We missed our cab. He has booked us another cab. Now wake up." Oops, Toote. I ran to the restroom and got ready in 15minutes. When we ran down, Joshua was ready too. "Morning, Joshua. Sorry I slept." "No problem, Madam. The cab is ready." "Stop calling me madam. Thank you for the cab." "Pleasure, madam. Yadav sir''s most important person is madam to me. Calling you by your name is against my etiquette!" "You are boring, Joshua." I said yfully! "Haha, you are in trouble, madam." "Why?" "I spoke to sir about you beingte and he spoke like he doesn''t care!" OMG, The after effects are bigger than I thought. He is seriously mad at me. "I will handle it." I told him as we got in the car. He went to his bike to follow us. "What''s wrong? you both had a fight? Is that why you were sad yesterday?" Kavi asked me. "Yeah, It was more like a misunderstanding. Not a fight." I told her. "Hope you will sort it out soon." she said and drowned herself in her phone. As the office building nears, the ball of fear in my tummy gets even bigger. I should apologize to him. When I reached my desk, I hurriedly looked for my phone. It was switched off. The battery must have drained. I have a charger in my desk that I put it on. I started waiting for him. "Um...Hi, Samantha. Has our boss arrived yet?" I asked our floor receptionist. "Not yet. I''m afraid he won''t show up today." She said as a matter of fact. "oh, Um.. Thank you." What? He wonte here today? How the hell will I talk to him? I ran back to my desk and switched on the phone. God damn it! 117missed calls from Yash. I opened the messages. 20 messages of missed calls from him when my phone is switched off. He has been trying to talk to me in the morning too. SHIT, I called him without wasting a second. Full ring and no answer. He must be super angry. I ran to Shiva''s room. I knocked on the door. "Yes!" "Hi, Shiva. um... good morning." "Good morning, Akshitha. How may I help you?" "Um... Why is Yash not here yet?" "You don''t know? He went to Japan to fix a problem in the production unit there. He is expected on friday." "Oh, I didn''t know. I mean I left my phone here yesterday. We didn''t talk." "That exins. He went in the morning in his private jet. He must havended there by now. He will call you after he is done with his work." "I wish!" I mumbled to myself. "Excuse me?" "Uh... Yeah he will. Thank you!" I went out of his room and back to my desk. He must have felt terrible. I am mad because he hurt me? He didn''t do it on purpose. But what did I do? I hurt him too! On purpose? Partly yes. I was carried away by jealousy and ego! Chapter 55: 55. Misunderstandings Chapter 55: 55. Misunderstandings Akshu''s PoV My heart sank when I learnt Yash is not in the country. Whatever the dispute may be, we should never sleep carrying it on for the next day. I determined in my heart that we should always go to bed in harmony. I should give him time to finish his work there. I should call him during the lunch break. I should make him feel that I am truly sorry. I started waiting for lunch break. I couldn''t concentrate on any work. It is a terrible feeling not being mentally present in the ce where you are physically. Yash must be feeling the same from yesterday. I feel so guilty for doing this to him. "Akshitha, Earth to Akshitha." Bji waved his hands on my face. "Oh, Sorry, Yes, Bji." "I am quite disappointed with you. This work has to be done yesterday and you haven''t even started It yet. Why do you alle to work if you can''t do it on time?" He yelled at me, attracting the attention of people around my cabin. It''s my mistake. He is right. "I''m sorry. I will tend to it right away. You will get it by the end of the day." I told him. "You better finish it before I escte it to my superior." "Sorry, I will." I started working on the task I was assigned to. Actually it needs more than a day to finish it. I felt ashamed when he yelled at me in front of everyone. I can do it by EOD! "Akshu, It''s lunch time. Come let''s go." Kavi came to my desk. "What? lunch break already? I have to finish this work, Kavi. You go. I will have my lunch here." I sent her away and started working again. "Akshu, Look at you. Come let''s go. Your floor is already empty." Kavi came again. "I know, I have to finish this today. You go, Kavi. I will book a cab after I''m done. " "I''m not leaving you alone here. Do it tomorrow. No one will question you." "Oh no, They will." "Akshu, Come on now!" She whined. "Hi girls, What''s wrong? Why are you still here?" Shiva came by. "Hi Shiva, She didn''t even have her lunch. Now asks me to go. She is staying back toplete this work you guys gave her." Kavi said, irritated. "Kavi, Enough. It''s my work. I should have finished it yesterday. It''s alreadyte. Now don''t make a scene here. Go!" "Akshitha,, You know you don''t have to work hard here. Yadav wanted you to be in his sight to make sure you are safe. That is the reason you work here. All the work assigned to you is just to make sure you are not bored here. Please don''t take pressure. Now go home." Shiva told me. I don''t know in what essence he told that, but I found it offensive. "Why, thank you, Shiva! I get paid foring here. I guess I should work for what I am paid for. It''s true I came in here without an interview but I can prove myself worthy." I said angrily. "You took it in the wrong sense, Akshitha. Have a great evening." Shiva went away. "Now go, Kavya. I am not a baby. I know how toe to pg." I shouted at her. "OkOk, Bye!" She left. There are still 4 or 5 people working here. I can finish it. No! I can''t finish it! I need more than 4hours at least. It''s already 7.30pm. It will be midnight if I continue doing this. Do I have a choice? No! Yadav''s PoV I don''t know when I fell asleep. I woke up with the ring on my phone. It''s from Japan? What now? "Hello!" "Good Morning, boss. We have a problem here." "Then how is this a good morning? What''s up?" I responded to my manager there. "A worker is injured by the machine. All the workers got into strike. Supervisor says it''s because of the carelessness of the worker. But workers say the problem is in the machine and inspite ofining about it to the supervisor he didn''t do anything to get it repaired." "What the hell? How is the injured man doing?" "He is alive. But lost 3 fingers on his left hand." "Shit, Can the situation get in control without meing there?" "If that was the case, I would have not called you, boss." "I will be there at noon." God damn it. I have loads of work here. I have beengging in my work schedule because of the problems rted to Shia. I am happy because we are making progress in reaching ''The main character'' behind all this. Now this, in Japan? I wish I had my cloning everywhere I need to be. Dad is being a great help now-a-days. He didn''t even question me on mygging. But this is not me. Rtionships definitely scatter your mind. I have always been a punctual, strict and professional man. I think it''s time now to resume who I was before. Hell, I cannot pull her out of my thoughts. I''m flying to Japan now. I should tell her. Prolonging this misunderstanding is kinda haunting me. I feel she is moving away from me and that is literally pulling the life out of me. I called her, shattering all my determination to leave her alone. I called over and over again. No answer and after some time, my calls directly went to voicemail which means she switched the phone off. She doesn''t even want to hear me. This is so not me. I am a powerful man. I can woo any girl of my liking with just a smile. Going behind a girl is so not me. This care, love, rtionship, feelings are all alien to me. I have suppressed my ego and let my heart take over me for so long and all it gave me was heartache! ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. Is she worth it? My heart screams YES! She is worth everything, including my life. Her innocence, care, love, trust! Trust? I doubt it now. I really don''t know what I did that was so big of a mistake that she is ignoring me?! I think I need a break. A break from everything. I boarded the jet with a n. I won¡¯t think about her until Friday. I should concentrate on my work. I love my work and I think it''s as important as Shia to me. Distractions by Shia should be controlled so as to not affect my work. On Saturday, I will talk to her. I will make her understand that she doesn''t need to worry or feel insecure because I am going to die under her feet in my old age. I will go public if that is what she wants to believe in me. Before that, I should make her mom understand that I am apletely changed man now for her daughter. I switched off my phone to stop me from calling her. I know it''s going to take a lot of determination to stay controlled and not to call Shia. I called Joshua to tell him to be more vignt around her for the next 4days. I also told him not to call me for updates. He said Shia is not yet ready for office. I know, she is clearly overreacting and egoistic and she needs time to realize that ''We'' are more important than her ego. I told him ''Whatever, I don''t care!''. Chapter 56: 56. Cherry On Top! Chapter 56: 56. Cherry On Top! Yadav''s PoV I feel like this break is necessary. But I still switched my phone on at night to see if she had sent me any messages or voice notes as she usually does. Nope! Nothing! The feeling of disappointment pierce my heart every time. Ok, It''s she who chased me for love. If she doesn''t want it now, I don''t care. Inded in Chennai on Friday night after solving all the disputes smoothly in Japan. Once I switched my phone on, I got a call from Shiva. A friend is the one you can trust no matter what the situation is. "Yes, Shiva." "Dei, How was the trip? All ok? You were not reachable for the whole trip." "Yeah everything is fine. I purposely went silent on this trip." "Ok, Good that you had a little break. Don''t forget that we have a lunch n tomorrow." "So you won¡¯t tell me what or who we are meeting?" "Wait until tomorrow!" "Haha ok!" "Yadav, Akshitha has done a great job in these 4 days. She finished all her assigned work before time and also helped in sorting out the new insurance policy details. She helped them sync our system to their''s." "Oh!" "I''m amazed by how efficient she is." "Good, So she has been busy all these days." "Absolutely. She wentte everyday. Good that Joshua was with her." "Good." "She is the right choice. We both had a little chat too. We are now friends." "Good for you." "Yadav, Are you ok?" "Yeah, Just tired." "Oh sorry, da. You take some rest. I wille in a cab tomorrow at noon. I don''t want any media following us." "Haha ok, da." "Good night!" "Bye da!" I went to bed pushing away everything from my mind. I slept so peacefully. No over thinking, No decision making. Just me and my work. It feels like ages since I have slept so peacefully. I have lost my sleep soon after Shia came into my life. The next day, I woke up veryte with a swing of refreshment. I skipped breakfast and got ready to meet Shiva''s special one. "Good noon, my boy!" "Good noon, dad. How are you?" I asked my dad. "Good, It''s been long since I''ve seen you this enthusiastic." "A new day, New me!" "See, I have always told you life will be beautiful when you find your love. Akshitha came along the way and you have changedpletely. I love to see you this happy every single day." God, Not again. "This is not what you think, dad. We have nothing like you anticipate." I ignored his ridiculous im. I am happy and enthusiastic just because I have pushed her out of my mind. She is nothing but an intrusion. "You cannot fool me, son. No news on you, No bad remarks. I have heard that you spent all your day with her in Coonoor. Besides, I have eyes, son. Your mom is so happy and So am I." "Come on, dad. She is just a passing cloud." I told myself more than I told him. "If you say so." my dad went in. I dashed out of my home. It''s her I see everywhere, It''s her I hear about, It''s her I always think about. I cannot fool myself. After Shiva''s n, I should meet her. I should tell her that I cannot stay sane if she ignores me. I called Joshua. "Hi Joshua, How are you?" "Hello, sir. I''m good, thank you. You are back?" ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. "Yes, How is Shia?" "She is doing good, sir. She is at a temple now with her.." I cut him off. "Ok, Tell me when she is free and where. I want to meet her." "I think she will be free after lunch, sir!" "Perfect! I have a lunch n too. Don''t tell her I aming. It''s a surprise." "Haha, sure, sir." "Just ping me where she is after her lunch." "Done. sir." "Thank you. Joshua." "Haha No mention, sir." I went to a flower shop to order a red rose bouquet for her. I picked it up and started waiting for Shiva to pick me up. Akshu''s PoV It''s a tiring week. I submerged myself in my work to stop that constant feeling of missing Yash. He is out of reach whenever I call him. I knew I won''t see him until Friday. So I stopped myself from thinking about him and the work in hand helped me distract my mind from him. I took up many tasks and finished it before time and everyone appreciated me. I am so happy that I proved myself here. I love this job and the people around me. Shiva came to me on a lunch break and offered lunch for me. I dly epted his offer because he always eats home made lunch. "So you and Yadav, How did it all happen?" he asked me. "I don''t know, Shiva. It''s all like a dream to me." I stated the fact. I myself couldn''t believe that he is in a rtionship with me. "Haha I get it. He is a wonderful man." "I know, Can we not talk about him please?" "What? Why?" "um... I''m already missing him." "Haha Ok ok, He will be here on Friday. He wille to the office on monday. I guess he will meet you before monday." "I wish, So tell me about you." "I''m an only son to my mom. My dad passed away in an ident 6years ago. I just found my love. Waiting to tell Yadav about it." He said and I am astounded by the simrities we have. "Wow, Congrattions! We are simr in many ways. I am an only kid and I live with my mom and My dad passed away in an ident 6yrs ago too. How strange, I found my love too." "Haha yeah. If I may ask, what happened to your dad?" "Hmmm ours was a beautiful little family. Me, my dad and mom. My parents¡¯ were a love marriage. They were not in talking terms with their families. My dad was into the travel business. He came to Chennai for a business trip and was caught in an ident. He was hit on his head and was brain dead." "Sorry, My dad''s ident was also simr. He was hit by a truck and died after 3 days in hospital." "A truck? My dad''s was a truck too." I cannot believe it. "Oh, This is quite depressing. shall we talk about something else?" he asked. "Sure!'''' We talked for some more time and went to work. My days went fast and it reached the weekend. I got too much into my work and workedte until I was exhausted. Yash would havended today. I must first go tell my athai and Raajiv my denial. After finishing them off I should go meet Yash and tell him that I am terribly sorry for my behavior. I went to bed. Sleep took over me soon. I woke up early in the morning because I needed to drape the saree. Devaki aunty sent me a car and I went with a bye to Kavi. "Come in, dear. You look gorgeous." Aunty weed me with a warm hug. "Thank you, aunty." "Hi, Akshitha, I''m Dheeksha. Nice meeting you.." a beautiful girl introduced herself to me. "Hi, Dheeksha. Nice meeting you too. you look lovely." "Awe thank you. You look beautiful too. Shall we go?" "Um.. yes." "Hi Akshu, You look beautiful." Raajiv came in. "Um...thank you." I really don''t like to receive hispliments but that is my problem. This family is too good to tell my denial on their face. But I have to tell them soon. In the car,in the temple and in the car back, everytime aunty deliberately made me stay with Raajiv. Now in the restaurant too, there is only one space left and that is near Raajiv. Dheeksha is expecting guests. so there are 2 ces beside her which I cannot take. The sad part is I didn''t get time alone with Raajiv. I sat near him and he helped me with my saree. "Hi Shiva, Hello, Mr.Yadav." Dheeksha spoke excitedly! I jerked my head to see Yash with red eyes not even blinking once and his gaze never left my eyes! Chapter 57: 57. Ruined It All? Chapter 57: 57. Ruined It All? Akshu''s PoV Never in my wild dreams have I ever thought about a situation like this. I could clearly see anger in his eyes. He is ofcourse angry. Why would he not? I never got back to him even after knowing how many times he tried to get in touch with me. And the worst part is, I am sitting with Raajiv and he is sitting right opposite to me. "Shiva, this is my mom, Dr. Devaki. This is my brother, Dr. Raajiv. She is Akshitha. My bro''s fiance. And This is Shiva. Ofcourse, we all know Mr.Yadav." Dheeksha introduced each other. I wish thend would just open up and take me in. I wanted to shout that I am not his fiance. Shiva is clearly confused and was about to say something to Dheeksha when Yash interrupted. "Hi, Nice meeting you all. Congrattions Mr.Raajiv." He said. He sounds like he is done with me. That is not good. Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. "Thank you, Mr. Yadav. It''s a pleasure meeting you." Raajiv said. Shiva turned to see Yash and went silent. Yeah, They are friends and they can read one another. I can feel his racing anger. "So Shiva, about you?" Devaki aunty asked Shiva. "Ma, he is the only son. He works in Yadav''s .." Dheeksha started but aunty interrupted."Let him talk, Dheekshu." She stopped her. "Sure aunty, I work in Yadav''s concern. I''m well settled and in love with your daughter. I''m here to ask for your daughter''s hand in marriage." Shiva spoke with full confidence. "I like your boldness." Raajiv said. "Thanks Mr.Raajiv. I have already told my mom about Dheeksha and she is very happy. You can check on my character and financial status." "Oh that won''t be necessary. We are impressed, Mr.Shiva." aunty spoke. "So is that a yes?" Dheeksha squealed. "Haha, we are happy with your find, sissy. I had already done my background check when mom told me about this. Congrattions, Mr.Shiva." Raajiv said. "Congrattions da." Yash hugged Shiva. Everyone was happy but all I could hear was my heart thumping out loud and the blood whooshes in my veins. I am scared is the very least description of my current state. I am dying a slow death and Yash¡¯s looks on me acts as a trigger that quickens the death. They started ordering the food and Raajiv asked me about my liking. My liking? My only liking now is to scream that I don''t like any of this and I am in love with Yash, which I clearly cannot do because if I do it now, I''m sure Yash will ask me who I am! I''m not in a mood to eat. "Anything you prefer. Thanks." I told him and I dared not to lift my eyes up to see anyone because I can already feel Yash¡¯s eyes burning a hole on me. "A look at those love birds. Akshu, you can have your own liking. Raajiv is a very considerate man. He won''t force you into something." Aunty said. She is aggravating the situation with the wrong conception of what I intended. Oops! Wrong move. Wrong dialog, It added fuel in already raging fire . "Haha Ma, Stop. You make her feel ufortable." Raajiv said. One sane man at least but he is the last one I will turn to for help. "Aww are you blushing?" Dheeksha added. God! What the hell is wrong with these people? "um..No. I like some fried rice and baby corn Manchurian.'''' I said. I dared not to even breathe louder. I''m scared. No, I''m terrified to sit opposite of him. "Alright, everyone. It''s nice meeting you all. Now if you all will excuse me, I have to go. I had a nice time and lunch." Yash spoke in a very pleasant tone. No one other than me could read his cold looks. Maybe Shiva can. "Yeah, We have another appointment after lunch. Thank you everyone for the lovely lunch and hospitality. I can bring my mom whenever you tell me." Shiva added, trying to get up with him. "No, You stay and enjoy your day, Shiva. I can manage." Yash said. "It''s ok. I wille with you." Shiva said. "No problem, you guys carry on. I will look for an auspicious day and let you know, Shiva. I''m nning for both the weddings at the same time." Aunty spoke. "Wow, Well then, Congrattions all four of you." Yash said, letting his eyes linger on me with sarcasm dripping in his voice. "Alright, We will take your leave then." Shiva said and they both left the ce and all of a sudden I felt a huge vacancy in my heart. This is no good. "Bye! " Everyone bid bye to them. "um... I need to use the restroom." I told Raajiv to get out of here. He stood up and made way for me and I dashed out of that room and ran to the front to see Yash. He cannot think bad of me. When I went there, he had already left. I don''t know what to do . I felt shattered inside and started crying. "What happened Akshu? Why are you standing here?" Aunty spoke from my back. "Aunty, I have to tell you something." I turned to her. It''s not fair to not tell them even now. It is my fault that I have prolonged this too far. My mind was constantly on Yash, our misunderstandings and the problem that surrounds us that I let this go to the bottom of my heart. "OMG, Why are you crying? Please don''t cry, dear. What happened? Raajiv, Come here. Look at her, she is crying." Aunty made a big fuss and Raajiv and Dheeksha came to us. They made me go to the car and never let me talk. "Please, Hear me out." I said in frustration. "Akshu, You are upset. Talking while you are upset will make you say things which you don''t intend to. I don''t know why you are upset. But I know you need some rest." Aunty told me. They all behave like doctors and I could no longer force them to listen to me. "Akshu, calm down and call me when you are ok." Raajiv told me with a hug and dropped me in our pg. I called Yash but he didn''t pick up. I don''t know, I stood on the gate of my pg crying. Joshua came running to me. "Madam, Are you alright? Please control yourself." "Joshua, Joshua, please call Yash. Please!" I pleaded with him. He will pick up Joshua''s call. "Madam, please don''t worry about him. He is alright. He was right behind me and was here until now. He just left, " he said. What the fuck? He was here all the time? "What?" I could no longer breathe. "Yes madam, he asked me to call him after lunch about your whereabouts. But I saw him with you in the restaurant. He sat in his car and waited for you all toe out and followed you here. I just saw his car leave after your Aunt¡¯s car left." I''m done for good. He still wanted to meet me and I spoiled it all. He must have seen Raajiv take me to the car with his hands around my shoulders. He must have seen Raajiv hug me now while leaving. I reacted to him in a simr situation where the fault is not on his side. Why would he not react now when all the fault is on my side? He asked me to finish this off soon and I prolonged it too long. I started crying more. "Madam, What''s wrong? Please tell me. Don''t cry." "Joshua, Did he tell you why he wanted to see me after my lunch?" "No, madam. But he said not to tell you because it was a surprise!" "Please call him." I pleaded with him with all I had. He wanted to meet me as a surprise? I took him too easily. I longed for him when he was a star. I took him for granted when he started getting close to me. "Ok, madam!" he called immediately with the loudspeaker on. "Sir, Akshitha madam wants to talk to you." "I''m busy now, Joshua. Ask her to stay safe indoors and keep an eye on her." He doesn''t even want to hear me. Of course, I didn''t let him exin. I reap what I sow. "But sir." Yash hung up on him. He looked at me with eyes full of pity. "Sorry, madam. Please get into your room. You heard him, he wants you to be safe." "Safe? Safe? My foot! I want to see him now, Joshua. Take me to him." I started walking towards his bike. "Madam, please. You can''t ride on my bike. I don''t know where he is. Please go into your room." "I don''t care. Call a cab now. I want to go to his home." He called the cab and waited for it toe along with me. I got in and Joshua followed me. When I went in, Shalu aunty was sitting on the couch. "Aunty! Aunty, where is Yash?" I ran to her. "Akshu, What happened? Why are you crying?" aunty asked me in a hurry. "Aunty, I want to see him. Where is he?" "He went into his room. What happened dear?" I didn''t wait to answer her. I ran upstairs to his room. When I touched the door to knock, it opened. I went in and looked everywhere for him. Nope, No sign of him. "Yash!" I called out his name. His room is aplete mess. I could see his anger in the state of his room. He has taken out his anger on the showcase items. A fine crystal piece was on the floor completely shattered. I picked it up and looked for the trash can. My heart bleed when I saw a red rose bouquet in the trash bin. I picked it up and the card read, ''To the most beautiful girl, I am so sorry I hurt you! I promise this won''t happen again! But you have to help me out by iming me! Will you marry me?'' So this is my surprise? I have ruined it allpletely! "Yash!" I cried out loud! Chapter 58: 58. It鈥檚 Over! Chapter 58: 58. It¡¯s Over! Akshu''s PoV He wanted to propose to me with an apology for the mistake that happened out of his control. But here, I made wrong which I could have easily avoided if I were mature enough to know how to prioritise things. I couldn''t find him in the room. I ran down to aunty again. "Aunty, He is not in the room. Where is he aunty?" "Please stop crying, Akshu. You are scaring me. Tell me what happened?" She sounded irritated. "Aunty, I love him, aunty. I love your son. We had a misunderstanding. I want to see him before he makes the wrong decision." I cried to her. "So he loves you too. I am so happy, Akshu. Don''t worry, misunderstandings are quitemon in couples." She doesn''t know the intensity of the misunderstanding we have. "Aiyo, aunty, He is really angry and yes he is in love with me. " I showed her the bouquet. "Aww look at my son. He knows to ask for sorry and knows how to propose to a girl romantically? Wow, That''s a surprise." "Aunty, please. No time for this. Where is he?" I¡¯m losing my patience. I want to see him and exin to him that I will always be his¡¯. "Rx, Akshu. If he is not in his room, he should be in the gym. Gym is outside near the pool. Third room from changing room. You will find it easy, it''s a room with all ss walls." I ran outside again. I ran to the gym and there he is punching the sand bag with all the might he has. He was wearing only his track pants and was naked above his torso. His muscles flex with every punch and he is sweating all over that glistened his body. I could not take out my eyes from his sexy muscled- up body even at a time like this. The feeling of lust and fear makes funny things on my tummy. With the way he is taking out all his anger and frustration on the sand bag, I think he sees my face on it. He looks scary. I gathered up all the courage I have and started taking baby steps to the gym and opened the door. "Out!" he said. Calm andposed. "Yash! Please listen to.." He cut me off. "Please get out. I''m not in the mood to hear your stories." he said, looking me in the eye. It feels like dying to see hatred for me in his eyes. "Don''t I get a chance to exin..." He cut me again. "Did you give me a chance?" he is talking to me like a stranger. No emotions in his voice. He is not angry or shouting and that is what is killing me more. "Yash, that''s a mistake. My phone..." All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Shia, Don''t make me do something that I will regretter. Go away." "Please listen to me just once." I almost pleaded. I was too scared to even go near him, I just stood near the door. "Just answer my question. Did you say your NO for this proposed wedding?" He asked, still maintaining his cool. I shook my head in a No! "Well then, congrattions. Don''t spoil it for Shiva too. Now get the hell outta here." Even now he is not angry at me, he is just irritated by my presence. "Yash!" I could not bear his hatred. "Out!" he shouted at his highest voice and punched my reflection on the mirror in front of him. "YASH!" I ran to him to stop him from what he was doing. His hands were all bloody and he pushed me away, not letting me touch him. "Just kill me. Get angry on me, hit me until you vent out your anger. I can''t bear this ignorance from you. I won''t go until you hear me out.¡± I said. He looked at me and took his phone. He dialed someone ignoring me altogether.. "Hi, Janvi! Are you free now?" He spoke. He is taking revenge on me? "...." "Great, Your ce in 20minutes." He hung up. He walked past me and went into the home without even sparing me a look. Wait, He is going to Janvi? Why? To show me that he is angry? Hasn''t he changed a bit? I don''t care if he has changed or not. I love him and I am not letting him go there no matter what it takes to stop him. Yadav''s PoV I am extremely angry with her. How could she do this to me? She came to me with love. I expelled all those emotions like a gue. I even resisted her getting involved in me. I wanted the best for her. I wanted to stay away from her. But she came in front of me all the time and spoke out her love for me at every instance. She made me ept my feelings for her. She made me an addict to her. And now she trashed my feelings. As far as I know, Dr. Raajiv is a good man. He is perfect with no bad habits. This way, all her family would be happy. Her mother would be happy. Who knows, even she will be happy. I know this will happen. That is why I tried avoiding her in the first ce. When I saw them together my heart hurt like hell. She came out with him, with his hands around her. He even gave her a hug when leaving her at pg. She didn''t deny him. She didn''t look like she was in difort. I understand she is having trouble choosing between family and me. I should be her happiness. If not, I should just make way for her happiness. I should give her space to decide for herself. I threw away things in my room out of frustration. I put the bouquet in the trash bin. I wanted to make her feel special. I wanted to propose to her and was even ready to marry her if that is what she wants to feel secure. I cannot put my finger on the emotions I am having right now. I am extremely angry with her but at the same time I want the best for her and I was shrunk inside that I am not that best! Even though I think mature, I could not stop the feeling of disappointment, deception and sorrow spread across my heart. I went out to my gym to take out my frustration. I saw hering my way in the very same saree I saw her first in my house. She is crying. She came running to me. It''s hard for me to see her cry and do nothing about it. I asked her to go. Talking in a bad mood will only worsen the situation. Besides,I need time to think on what''s next. She needs time to decide her future. When she pushed me to talk, I thought she came to me saying No to them. I asked her the same and she still didn''t say a no to them. She has the nerve toe here and justify her acts? I couldn''t contain my anger and broke the mirror into pieces. She tried to help but I denied her. I don''t want to prolong whatever this is before she chooses! That is it. I''m not wasting my time here. I have work to do. I called Janvi to find out her schedule. She keeps on dodging all the calls my director is making. I ignored Shia and went into my room. "Adish, I spoke to her. She is now free. It''s just a formality. Just give her the gist of the story and her part. Give her an approximate time schedule. Get her signature on the bonds." "Sure sir, thank you." "Make the arrangements for the poojai soon. Don''t bete to her ce." I told him. Diverting my mind on my work is the best way to keep my cool. "Sure, sir. I''m on the way already." "Good, Her ce in 20minutes I told her." I disconnected the call when I heard someone open my room. I know who that is. "You are not going anywhere. You are going to her because you are angry with me? You need sex to take out your anger on me? Well then, let''s do it." she spoke, taking her saree off of her. How dare she!? She has crossed all the limits. She pushed on my limits to end this once and for all. "Shut the fuck up. Just get out of my sight!" I threw her saree on her face. So this is it. Everything ends here. She has no trust in me. She has the cheapest image on me. She has insecurities. We cannot be in a rtionship with so many doubts. If Ie homete, she might think I have had sex with someone. It''s better to part ways rather than make our lives a living hell. I made myself calm to talk to her onest time. "Listen to me, Akshitha! Everything between us ends here. I think it''s better for you to marry that doctor and settle in life. This thing between us is not going to work out. Now please get dressed and go. Don''t you evere back." I told her and gave her privacy to change. I really don''t want to see her again in my life. I went out to my car and drove off without any destination. Chapter 59: 59. Absolutely Ridiculous Chapter 59: 59. Absolutely Ridiculous Akshu''s PoV He denied me! He denied me and went to her! He is not a little bit disturbed looking at me. He asked me to go away. He said everything is over between us. That means he broke up with me!!?!?!? Is that all? Mine is not a fairy tale like I thought? So he is always a glowing star up above and out of reach? I just thought I pulled him down to me all this while. Wait, what did I do now? I offered myself to him. But he denied and went to her? I feel so ashamed of myself now. I made no effect on him. His attraction towards me faded away just like he said. I pulled myself together and got dressed. I went out of his room and got down the stairs to see aunty. She has a pity feeling on her face. Did she hear what happened inside the room? That''s not possible though. "Are you alright dear?" "Yes aunty. I have to go." I ran out of the house to the street . I started walking on the road towards the beach. His home is a beach house remember! I really want to submerge myself in the warmth of the sea. "Madam, Wait please." I heard Joshua running behind me. "I think there is no need for you to follow me anymore, Joshua. Thank you for keeping me safe for so long. Good bye!" "Madam, I have called a cab. Please stay with me. I will drop you in your pg. We will talk about everythingter." "He broke up with me, Joshua. He doesn''t love me, not anymore. I''m not that ''important person'' to your boss anymore. So there is no point in safeguarding me. Just go before he calls you and summons you back." "I''m not leaving your side until you get back safe in your pg madam. I will talk to Sirter." He is starting to get on my nerves. All I want to do now is to submerge myself in the sea and find peace. "Leave me alone, Joshua. Can''t you hear me? He said it''s over between us. He had no love for me. Not now! I doubted about before!" I spoke out of frustration. "Madam, Please stop talking now. Talking while in a bad mood will make you say things which you will regret sayingter." He said the same thing that the doctor''s family said. That was my breaking point. "Let me talk. Please let me talk. Why is no one ready to hear me talk? Don''t suppress me, Joshua. Hear me out." I started screaming on the road. He was taken aback by my sudden outburst. Even I am. I pity him. What does anything have to do with him!? He is just a spectator. He is trying to do the job given to him. "Sorry, Joshua. I want to spend some time alone on the beach." "This part of the beach is not open for public ess, madam. You can use the beach that is behind Yadav sir''s home." "Did you hear what I said a little before? He broke up with me." "Don''t get me wrong, madam! You think he broke up with you? I have seen the intense connection between you two. I don''t know about you, madam, but I have seen it in his eyes, in his actions. He cares for you and that was a natural instinct that he has for you. You are in an emotional breakdown now. Everything will look bad in your eyes now. Please rest a little and think over whatever happened. I''m not saying that he is not at fault. All I''m saying is you need to look at the problem in a different perspective to know what really happened." He has a point. An eye opener at the right time. I should stop ming him. I must solve all the mess I made before pointing my finger at him. He cannot break up with me. He is answerable to me because hell, he belongs to me. "Thank you, Joshua! Call a cab." "Pleasure, madam. Please wait under the shade." he showed me a tree nearby. I called up Shiva to stop Yash from going to Janvi."Shiva, Akshitha here!" "I have your number." oohhh! He is angry too. "I want to know where Yash is?" "I don''t know. Why would I tell you even if I know? How did you think I will help you?" "Shiva, I can exin!" "I don''t want to know anything. You were important before, because I thought you made my friend happy. When I know you are making him mad and sad, you are just no one to me!" "Please, he is going to Janvi''s house now. Stop him somehow, Please." "Oh shut up, I know what you are thinking about him now. What do you know about him? He is not a guy who goes to a girl. He is not a womanizer. So long, he used girls that came to him. Not once has he gone to them. He won''t do what you think even if he dies. Shame on you! I am feeling disgusted with you now. You doubt him!? I think it''s better if you clear your paths with him." He disconnected the call. He never allowed me to talk. He didn''t know what happened between us for him to make that decision to go to her. I don''t need anyone''s help. I can stop him myself. I ran to Yash''s house again. His Hummer is missing. He should have taken it now. Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. I googled for the address of Janvi. The cab came meanwhile and I asked the driver to go to Janvi''s house. I called Kavi. "Kavi, I need help." "Where are you? I have been calling you for so long and you didn''t pick up. You started to worry me. Kriya said she saw you crying at the gate and went in a cab. Are you alright? What happened? " she spoke in a breath. "Stop now, I''m fine. Call Vishwa and ask him if he has some connections that can find the whereabouts of a car?" "What?" "Or just give him my number and ask him to call me." "Do you trust him?" She asked me with a tint of happiness. "Not now, Kavi. I am willing to take his help. So I think I trust him." I told her. I am a selfish bitch and I hate myself. "Love you, Akshu. Will ask him to call you!" "Don''t get excited. We will talk about thister/" "Huh!ok!" she said grumpy. I started to wait for his call. Do I know someone who can track a car? Someone in the police department can do this. Wait a minute, thatdy inspector. But what should I tell her to locate Yash? The cab stopped in front of a small vi which ispletely awesome andpact. There is no one on thepounds except for the 2 securities. Nothing like a film star''s home. Even Yash''s home has some press outside. I got down and asked the cab to wait. I peeped in the house to see 3 cars parked. No Hummer. "Hello, sir. Is Janvi madam inside?" I asked one of the securities. What if I came to the wrong ce? "She is not seeing any fans at her house. That''s her rule." he said. He thinks I am her fan? Hell no! I would dly be her killer. "No, I am not her fan. I want to see her." "I said she won''t see any visitors here. Get an appointment ande back." "God, Ok, Just tell me if she is inside." "We don''t know." Ok, These guys are hard to crack. "I am from Rishid productions." I lied to them. "Madam is with your director now. She is in a story discussion. She is not expecting anyone else from your ce now." The other man looked at her schedule and spoke. What have I done!? He is not here. His director is here. Which means he had set this meeting for his director. And I spoke and did ridiculous things suspecting him. Shiva is right about his friend. He may be right about thest thing he said too. It is good for him if I stay away from him. I am an evil woman and I bring heartbreaks and destruction with me. Chapter 60: 60. Denied, Finally! Chapter 60: 60. Denied, Finally! Yadav''s PoV I truly don''t believe that I told her it''s over. It''s so painful and heart breaking. Her teary eyes pierce my heart. I was myself before she came into my life. I changed myself to a man of her liking just for her. Everything is in vain. She didn''t realize what I have in my heart for her. She would have never had an opinion like this on me if she realised my love for her. I was a stubborn, strong headed, easy going, carefree man. But now, I am wrecked. I don''t know if I can mend myself. I don''t know if I can ever erase her out of me. She has imprinted herself in me. Now it''s like, we are not two different people. But she crumbled my heart and threw it away. Everytime, I stepped down from myself to protect her, to love her and not to make her feel down. But she didn''t have trust in me. She thinks I will go to someone for sex. She thinks I cannot live without sex. That is not true. Though I had many chances with her to have sex, it''s me who avoided doing it. She deliberately presented her to me twice now. Though I wanted to have her for myself, I valued her and her dignity that I controlled myself. I have had sex before which I did just like that. I thought it''s no wrong. I had opportunities and I used them. Girls gave themselves to me. Never once have I had the urge to have sex before her. But in Coonoor, when she offered herself, I totally wanted her. But then I restrained myself from doing that just because I loved her! Shouldn''t she have thought about all these before using me of such a low act? I drove in the traffic which made me more frustrated than I already am. I pulled over in a parking lot of a hotel and sat leaning on the steering wheel. I idently switched on the music system which sang, ''Mulumathi avthu mugamaagum Malligai avthu manamaagum Maargazhi maathathu panithuli Avthu Kuragum Magarantha kaattin maan kutti Avthu nadai aagum (her face is like a full moon her scent is just like jasmine her voice is like a dew drop she walks like a deer in a forest!) Avi oru naal nan parthen Idhayam kodu ena varam kaveten Adhai koduthaal udane eduthey sendruvittal! (I saw her one day I asked for her heart She gave me But took mine away very soon!) Arugil irunthal oru nimidam Thivil therindhal maru nimidam Kangalil maraiyum poi maan pol Odugiral'' (She was near me in a minute she went far away the next minute she just disappeared like a mirage!) This song, argh! I want to wash her thoughts away. I switched to the radio. It yed another song which is a sad song when the female lead has another prospective man. Fuck, I turned it off. Why the hell does this happen to me? Raajiv! He is going to have her for himself. She is not meant for me. She doesn''t trust me. She doesn''t deserve to be with me. It''s better this way. She doesn''t belong with me. I now understand when mom and dad told me about the yboy tag attached to me. They were feared for this. They feared my heart would break. This wouldn''t be a problem even now, if not for Shia. I saw her love for me in her eyes. But what is love when there are doubts? I epted her as she is. I loved her for what she is. That is love. I should have never epted my feelings for her. The only mistake I made wasmitting myself to her. If I were that same old Yadav, this wouldn''t be so much of a pain as it is now. I decided to let go of her. We are better off without each other. It''s good this way. We can save each other from future heart breaks! Akshu''s PoV I havemitted a terrible mistake. Everyone was right about talking in a bad mood. I should have listened to him and gone while he was patient. After cleaning up my mess, if I hade back to him, he would have reacted differently. The only question he asked me was if I said my NO to that proposal. If I had done that, everything would have been the same as before. Did I not trust him? I love him with all my heart. I am even ready to die under his feet. Why didn''t I think of something else when Janvi came into picture? Just like my mom, I have a bad image of him? No, I would rather die. I love him. I trust him with my life. I don''t know how to describe my behavior. But all I know is I made a terrible mistake. I must tell him I am sorry for everything. If he doesn''t want me after that, I will go away. He may be right. I don''t deserve to be with him. I sat back in the cab and started crying. I truly don''t know what to do. I messed it up too much now I don''t know if it''s still repairable. He was so calm and composed almost all the time I was there. He was not angry that I was with them. He went angry when I said I didn''t say my no yet. But then he went avoiding me. There was still love at that time. We show our anger on our loved ones. But when I did that ridiculous thing, I really knew I ended it all there. I must make it up to him. "Where do you want to go now?" the driver asked me. "um.." I got a call and I asked the driver to hold on. "One minute please!" I said to the driver and took the call. "Hello, who is this?" "Vishwa here, Akshitha. You wanted some help?" I now know it was not him who called me the other day. That voice waspletely different. "Um...yes, Vishwa. Can you locate Yadav''s Hummer? All his cars have the same number 555. I don''t know the prefix alphabets though." "Sure, I can do it. But it may take an hour or so." "Um...please do it. Thank you!" "Sure, I will call you once I get him." "Thank you so much Vishwa, Sorry!" I told him. I made quick judgments on people and gave them a hard time. I think I now know what my negative point is! "No problem, Akshitha. Everyone will do the same as you did." He is so modest. Maybe he is not totally bad after all. "Thanks!" I disconnected the call and asked the driver to go to my aunt''s address. I should fix this immediately. But then something struck me. They might not be at home. I called her. "Hello aunty, Akshitha here." "Hello, dear! How are you feeling now? Are you ok hon?" "Yes, aunty. Can I talk to you in person now? Where are you now?" "Oh dear, we are in hospital. I cane home in another 30minutes. I am free now." "Or I cane to the hospital if you want." "It''s ok, dear. We shall meet in 30minutes in our home." Huh! Ok! Anyways it would take 30minutes to reach their home. I went there first and started waiting. After some 10minutes aunt came in her car. "Oh dear, you came early? How long are you waiting?" "Doesn''t matter, aunty. I just came." "Come on in, dear." She opened the door to let us in. "Aunty, I am so sorry, but I am not interested in this wedding." I told her once inside the home. "What? Why dear?" she asked me, surprised. "um...Aunty, I should have told you all this before. I love someone. I cannot marry Raajiv!" "Oh, Are you sure about that? Did your mom know?" "Yes, aunty. I told mom but she didn''t listen to me. She thinks marrying Raajiv will be good for my future." "Maybe she is right dear?! Who is that guy anyways?" R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Um...Yadav Rishid." "What? You can''t be serious! Dear, listen to me. He is not good for you. I''m not telling you this because you deny my son. I''m telling you this because you are like Dheeksha to me." "I know, aunty. My mom said the same. I know him. Please talk to my mom for me. I love him." "I''m not talking to your mom, Akshu. But I respect your decision." She spoke like she was pissed off. I don¡¯t care anymore. I want to go find Yash! Chapter 61: 61. Wedding Fixed? Chapter 61: 61. Wedding Fixed? Akshu''s PoV I ran out of aunty¡¯s home and waited for the call from Vishwa. I walked to the nearby bus stop and waited there. It was almost evening. I am really worried. I hurt him too much! "Hello, Vishwa?" I picked up the call on the first ring. "Yes, His car is heading back to his home now from kmbakkam. He is almost near his home." he said. "Thank you, Vishwa." I hung up the call and called a cab to his house. I don''t want to prolong this misunderstanding between us any longer. Joshua is still behind me. I wonder why Yash has not yet called him back. I kept calling Yash but he didn''t respond. I don''t know how I am going to soothe him after all I have done now. I am getting nervous by the minute we are closing in on his house. I could not take this pressure anymore. "Hello!" I picked up my ringing phone. It''s an unknown number. "Is this Ms.Akshitha?" A girl sang from the other end. "Yes, Who is this?" "We are talking from Shabana''s Residence, Ms.Akshitha. Our guest Mr.Benjamin is unconscious now in his room. We tend to him with our doctor. When asked, he said your name. He is in a bad condition now, Ms.Akshitha! Can you pleasee here asap?" The girl said which took me in shock. What is Benjamin uncle doing here in Chennai. He didn''t tell me about his arrival. As a matter of fact, he had been calling me for two days and I am the one that kept dodging his calls since I was disturbed by Yash and apparently didn''t bother to call him back. I am a selfish prick. I thought Yash is not good with maintaining rtionships but it looks like I am terrible at it. "OMG, Where is your ce exactly? If you don''t mind, please tell me your hotel''s name again?" "Shabana''s Residence. We are in Siruseri." "Ok, I will be there in another half an hour " I disconnected the call and asked the driver to go to that ce. Once in the hotel, I ran to the reception to inquire about Jamin uncle. "Hi, I''m Akshitha. You have Mr.Benjamin here? I got a call." "We were expecting you. Come along, Ms.Akshitha." She took me to the elevator and to the 3rd floor. She opened a room after knocking. "Uncle, God, When did youe here? How are you feeling now?" He wasying on the bed like a ragged cloth. I felt so guilty. I''m no good! Not to anybody! "Sorry, dear. I didn''t want to disturb you. When I didn''t hear back from you, I knew you were busy. But I really couldn''t think of anyone living here that I know of." He said, piercing my already guilty heart. "Oh uncle, I am so sorry. I was kinda held up. I''m d you called me. What did the doctor say?" "Oh he said nothing dear. I''m getting old. He said not to travel alone anymore." He said in the midst of heaving and breathing. He is clearly sick. "Oh did you eat something? What''s your business here?" I asked him. "I had to visit my friend here. He was sick and asked me toe see him. Look at me now, I am sick and I made youe see me." he tried tough. He was very weak. "Rx, uncle. I will be with you. Where is your friend? Just call him and tell him that you are not doing well too. Shall I book tickets for us to Coonoor?" I asked him. "It''s ok, dear. I can go by myself. Just book a ticket for me." "Oh no, It''s not happening. I''m not letting you travel alone. I wille with you. Will drop you there and come back. Period." I stopped him from further arguments. "Sorry, dear." His voice felt heavy. "Please, uncle. I owe you this much." I checked online and booked tickets for us to Coimbatore. Yadav''s PoV It''s been 3days since Ist saw her. I cannot get past her. All I see is her. Why did shee into my life and disappear like a rainbow. Rainbows at least don''t break the sky! But she did. I tried keeping my posture as calm as possible. The ego part of me doesn''t wanna ept that she made a dent on me this soon in a short period of time. My mom and dad certainly know there is more. But they dare not ask me anything. "Adish, Don''t dy the start of the new project. n the movie for pongal release." I spoke to my director. "Sure, sir. Every character is fixed. We are ready to go." "Good! Date of the start?" "Next Tuesday is auspicious." "Tuesday it is then." I wanted to make myself busy with the work so that my mind won''t be idle to think about her but this conversation too reminded me of her. I remembered her in that yellow sexy outfit in my dream where she kissed me on the sets of my new film pooja. "About the advertisement for the movie?!" Adish brought me back from my agony. "Janvi will make headlines. You don''t have to worry about it." I told him and hung up on him. I had to make a few more calls and I did. I tried and finished all my work from home. I called Mike to follow up on the lead. We are close in getting the culprit. I got a call from the office. I am not in a mood to talk but I have no other choice. "Yadav, here!" "Sir, Shiva sir has hit his head on the site on a sharp rod. He was bleeding. We took him to the hospital." "God, Is he alright? Which hospital?" "He is alright sir. We just wanted to let you know. He is in MJ hospital." "Ok, I will see to it." I took my car keys and headed out to see Shiva. He must be more careful. "Hi, I''m here for the patient named Shiva." I got to the receptionist. "Problem, sir?" "Wound on his head?" "Oh, He is in second floor room number 204." "Thanks!" When I went in, he was sitting on the bed with a big wrap on his head. "Idiot, Can you be more careful?" "Whoa, This is not how you talk to a patient. Where is the Horlicks?" Shit, Why the hell does this conversation too bring back the memory of Shia? She cannot be erased from my memory. Not until I die! "Shut up. How are you feeling?" I spoke, controlling my anger. "Good. They have given pain killers now. 4stitches. Dheekshu is here. So no worries." He said. I am happy that at least he''s got to be happy. "Oh, Ok da. Take care." I stood up to leave. "I will. Are you alright?" He asked me. "I am." He is my best friend. He can sense my inner turmoil. "Yadav, let it go." "I am trying. Don''t expect me to be normal just after 3days." "Ok ok, I''m fine. You go home and get some rest." He said. "When is your discharge?" "Actually I don''t have to be here. Dheekshu said she wants to talk to me. So I am here in a room as a patient." He said with a little shyness. "haha enjoy." I left the room to go back home to shut myself away from her thoughts. "Hello, Mr.Yadav. How are you? So you are here to see your friend?" "Hi, Raajiv. Yes!" I have a death wish for him. But he is not at fault. "He is fine. Don''t worry." "Yeah, Just saw him. So how''s everything?" "Everything is going as per n. Our wedding date is fixed next month on the 15th." He said. So she has chosen her family after all. Good for her. "Oh wow, Congrattions! Shiva didn''t tell me?" "Oh he doesn''t know it yet. My mom spoke to his mom. He will probably know when he gets home." "You guys didn''t tell about his ident to aunty?" I asked him. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Nope, He didn''t want us to tell her." "Oh ok, I have to leave, Mr.Raajiv. See you." When I was about to leave, I heard a very familiar voice. "Raj athaan, look what aunt gave me. It''s a ..." she froze on her spot when she realised I was here. Well, I didn''t mean to intrude on their personal space. "Sorry!" I muttered and went away. ''Don''t you worry too much, stupid heart. Look at her, She is ready for a new life. You made no impact on her. How shallow! Be your old self. No one can hurt you that way!'' I told my heart while heading back to my car. Chapter 62: 62. More Hate! Chapter 62: 62. More Hate! Akshu''s PoV God! Why the hell does this man oftene at the wrong time? I totally didn''t expect him to be here at the hospital . And the worst part is he heard me call Raajiv ''athaan''. I am stupid. "Athaan, keep it with you. I wille back in a few minutes." I told him and ran behind Yash. "Yash." I called out to him still running behind. He took long strides and soon disappeared from my sight. I huffed and puffed while still running and caught him at the car park. I ran to his car and stopped him standing in front of his car. "Get the hell outta my way." he shouted. I am in no mood to put up with his anger. "Down now. I want to talk to you." "I have nothing to hear from you." he said, getting down from his car. "But I have to tell you something." "That your wedding with your ''athaan'' is fixed next month? Don''t take the pain. I already know." He spat right at me. "You know what? Nonsense! I denied the proposal 3 days before." I saw his eyebrows make a question mark. "I denied this wedding already and now the wedding is only for Shiva and Dheeksha." I reassured him. "Oh Really? I heard something different!" I can sense that he is making fun of me. "Well, you heard wrong. Look, I am so sorry I behaved so wrong that day. I was emotionally bad that day and didn''t properly think about what I was doing. I was not in my senses when I did that. I truly didn''t think any low of you Yash. I love you!" I spoke in a breath. "Well, Good that you apologise for your awful behavior. That behavior of yours is an output of what you think about me. I am truly grateful that that situation happened before I got myself deep into you. I know what you think about me now. You are forgiven. You know why? Because you are no one to me." he tried sitting back in the car. The way he spoke to me like a stranger is tearing me apart. The once love speaking eyes are full of aversion for me now. "I am no one to you? You didn''t get yourself deep into me yet? I admit that I was stupid that day. I overreacted out of love, Yash. I thought of giving myself to you to keep you with me." I told him. OMG, I think I said something wrong. He came dangerously near me. I could feel his raging anger in his aura. I am more than scared of him. This Yash is not the one that I fell in love with. He is burning in rage. "I loved you. You know what love is? I didn''t know that until I met you. I mend my ways for you. I was just after your love, care and your stupidity. I have never thought about other girls after you. I was tied to you only for you. I agree, I had sexual feelings for you. But that was only when you crossed the border. I tried to deny every chance I got to take you because I wanted to do everything properly with you. I respected you! All you need is love to keep me with you. Not your body. Even now you proved what you have in your mind about me. Cha, I feel ashamed to have fallen in love with you." He said squeezing my cheeks to make me look up at him. He is hurting me with his strong grip but that pain is nothing aspared to the pain he is giving to my heart. I hurt him. I hurt him with my stupid talk. He immediately took his hands away from me. Why the hell whatever I talk about is taken in a wrong sense by him. I think I have to stop talking. He turned to leave but I got hold of his hand. "Yash, please. I didn''t mean it that way. I love yo..." he didn''t let meplete it. He freed his hands from mine so forcefully that I lost my bnce and fell down. He got in his car and left the ce. Now I messed it all up big time. He is hurt. He hurt me. He said he loved me. Past tense! He is not in love with me now? I should make it all straight. I just sat there for so long that Raj athaan called me on the phone. "Hello." "Akshu, Where are you? Mom asked me to take you to our home. You should be tired after you travel from Coonoor." He said. He is right, I am tired. Not physically but tired in my heart. "Hmmm ok, athaan. I''m in the parking lot. Youe here." "Yeah, On my way." I came straight to the hospital from Coonoor. Mom had given so much stuff from there to aunty. Since it''s all fruits and veggies, I thought to give it as soon as possible. I dropped Jamin uncle and was about toe back the next day but mom asked me to stay for 2 more days. I took offst time fighting with her. She was sad. She is the only family I got and I cannot hurt her. So I stayed but we didn''t talk about marriage. Since I denied it to aunty, I was relieved too. "Shall we go Akshu?" Raj came to me. "Mmm ok." I told him when he looked closely at me. "What happened, Akshu? What are you doing here?" He asked me. "Nothing, I just came to talk to Yash." I told him. "Who?" "Um..Yadav Rishid." "Oh, you are a fan too? What happened to your cheeks? It had a blood clot on either side." He said. Yeah, Yash is a strong man. "Oh that is nothing. Um...I guess I am kind of his fan. I work in his office, remember?" I disregarded his question about my cheek and answered the other he asked. I didn''t tell him that I love Yash because I am not in a mood to get advice from him either. "He is a talented man." He said. "Of course he is." Talking about him gives me immense pleasure. "So what''s your favorite song?" he asked me, switching the radio on. "All romantic songs from AR.Rahman." I told him. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Cool, I like his songs too." He started ying the songs for the rest of the ride. On reaching home, he offered me coffee. He is a nice gentleman. "Thanks!" I told him. "Don''t mention it." "How is Paatti(grandma)?" "She is fine for her age." I started looking upstairs. I have not seen this house fully yet. "Um... can we have a house tour?" "haha it''s not a big house, Akshu. It''s Thatha''s(grandpa¡¯s) house. We didn''t make any changes. I will show you around after the coffee." He said. "Ok!" He showed me the rooms downstairs and took me upstairs. He opened a room full of cobwebs. "This is Thatha''s room. We nevere here after he is dead." "Oh why? This room looks scary as in horror movies." "Haha don''t be afraid. There are no ghosts here. Paatti said not to touch anything in there. She said, after my demise, clean up everything that belonged to us and burn with us." "Oh she must be missing grandpa." I could feel that love between them. I now know why grandma never tried to get in touch with my dad. Her love for her husband must be more than her love for her son. I don''t know why I see Yash''s face in my heart now. He thinks I think bad of him. That''s not true. I want him. I need him. But unfortunately, whatever he said was true. I tried binding him with me instead of my heart. I am at fault. I should tell him myself that I went to Janvi''s home. If he gets to know it from someone else, he will hate me more. "Raj, if you don''t mind, can I see what''s inside this room?" "Sure, but be careful with the dust. " "Ok." He stepped in with me and his phone rang. He picked it up and mouthed me to carry on! After he went downstairs, I took out my phone and called Yash. I know he won''t pick up my call. So I started typing the message. I erased and wrote and erased and rewrote. I am bad at handling words. ''Cha! If he picks up the call, I will tell him directly. Messaging is hard.'' I kicked the table near the bed and the drawer opened. ''To Sumathi'' It was a letter written to my mom. It was dated some 3years back. Precisely some months before grandpa¡¯s demise. I took it and read it. I sent a message to Yash finally and got down putting everything back in ce just like it was before. My heart races like a horse in a course. "Akshu, Did you see the house? How do you like it?" He came back from his call. I am scared is nothing aspared to the state I am in now. "uh... yes, I have to go to my pg. My friend... She will be waiting." I took my bag and tried to get up. "Why so soon, Akshu? We won''t get a time like this alone." he said while my heart started to thump aloud in my throat! "Uh... Some other day." I started getting down the stairs moving past him. He came near me when the bell rang. Huff! I ran to the door to see who the saver was! Chapter 63: 63. The Thing In Common! Chapter 63: 63. The Thing In Common! Akshu''s PoV I was relieved when I saw who was at the door. Thank god. "Hi, I am the cab driver. Are you ready?" He asked us. "I did not call for a cab." Raajiv said, irritated. "I did, I called for a cab through the app" I said hurriedly. "Do you really have to go?" He asked me. "Yes, My friend will be waiting." I got out while talking and stood near the so-called ''driver''. "Ok, Will see youter." he said defeated. I walked behind the driver and went out of the gate. "God, thank you so much, Joshua." I thanked him as soon as we exited the gate. "Don''t mention it, madam. It''s my job." He called Yash. "Sir, she is safe. I took her out of the house safely." ".." "I was ready, sir. But she was safe. I don''t think he posed any danger when I got there." "..." "Yes, sir. Right away." R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only He really did call a cab. "Sir has asked you to meet him in his house now." "ok, Thank you, Joshua." I told him but I could sense a change in his bodynguage and modtion with me. It is not affectionate anymore. It is more like a duty now. Looks like I have lost his respect too. "No problem." He said. ¡°What did I do wrong, Joshua?¡± I asked him. ¡°I am not in any position toment on your behavior. But whatever you did hurt the mighty Yadav Rishid. You didn''t value the love you bagged. Yadav sir is not some trophy that you won and thrown in the showcase to dust.¡± He said. Ouch, that hurts. ¡°I never thought of him like that.¡± I told him and got in the car and he went to his bike to follow. Yash has always been there to save me. He has always felt responsible for my safety even before he knew me. Just like Joshua said the other day, he has that pull towards me in his heart. He has that connection with me. He is so pure in his feelings. He is pure at heart. I was so wrong to suspect him. The song in the car is not helping either. "Aval avan kaathal nenjil kandaaley siru kutram Avan nenjam thaai paal poley ennalum parisutham! (She found a mistake in his loving heart! But his heart is so pure like mother''s milk!) Aathiramhiram mooda Payum Kai aval paarkiral! Aaha motham avasara km Avalukithai kaattidum kam! (Rage made her blind! So now she sees milk as liquor. Everything now is a mess! Time will show what she has done!) Maruthani vizhiyil yen adi podi Deepali!" God, I know I am wrong. But my love for him is true. I can''t even think of anyone else other than him. I have done enough damage to his heart. My words, unknowingly hurt him more. He should realize that my love is true. He should realize that I didn''t think of him any lower. My words are not going to tell that to him. Time and my silence will make him realize! Now, I should only talk about the problem in hand. I should not get carried away with my love for him now and make it even worse if that was even possible. I made up my mind to stick to solving the problem and getting the culprit under justice. Our problem should be healed with time. I got down from the cab and went home. Bruno and Tiger came running to me. Oh how much I missed being with them. I had a brief moment with them and went upstairs to his room. No one is found in the home downstairs. I knocked on the door and waited for an answer. "Get in!" I heard him. I went in and locked the door behind. I saw him with another man sitting on the porch. "Come here." he called me. "Are you ok?" he scanned me from top to bottom in a quick nce. I felt a tingling in my stomach. I just nodded at him. "Sit!" he showed me an empty chair. "This is Mike. He is kinda a detective! He is working for me to find what is happening with the orphanage. Everything that is happening around us is rted to that. But that is not the whole story." he stopped and looked at Mike. His look at me says I am a stranger to him now. It pierces my heart and wounds me more than you can imagine. But now after all I have done, I think I deserve this excruciating pain. I let it slide and started listening to him. "We are still waiting for 4 more people. Let theme too." Mike said. I wonder who they might be. But still I kept quiet. I didn''t dare to look at him. We heard a knock again and in came a man whose haircut and physic shows him to be a cop. "Ashok,e in. We have proof now." Yash weed that man. "You know who is behind all this? Do we have any documented proof? Anything solid will do, Yadav." "I think we have." Yash said. I looked weirdly at everyone. I practically don''t know who they are. But I know my aunt''s family is at fault here. With the letter, I could only read a little. His tamil fonts were old and I couldn''t read it "He is Ashok, a cop in the crime branch." Yash introduced him to me. "Hi!" I said awkwardly. "Hi, Akshitha. You are so beautiful." he said. "um.. Thanks!" "So you were the one that started digging into the orphanage?" "No! I... I didn''t know what''s happening even now." I told him. "Don''t worry, Our department is looking for leads to get to the main viin. If Yadav has it, then I will protect you for sure." he said. "She is engaged to her aunt''s son." Yadav said to Ashok out of nowhere! Is he jealous of his friend talking to me? Awe how cute!? "Oh, My bad! I thought I would have a chance. Your savior Mr.Yadav too didn''t have a chance?" he asked me. I now dont know what to say. I looked at Yash. "Ashok, Get into the problem we have in hand." Yash said, diverting his gaze from me. "You said we are meeting up with some people. I hope not everybody is here. Don''t be serious all the time, Yadav. A little bit of fun in between is very good for your heart." Before Yash could say anything, another knock was heard and Kavi and Vishwa came in. "Kavi!" I called out to her. "Akshu, Did you guys find who is behind all this?" she asked me. "I only know that this has something to do with my aunt''s family. Nothing else." "Sit down, please." Yash interrupted. Shiva came along too. So now me, Yash, Mike, Ashok, Kavi, Vishwa and Shiva were here. "Disy the facts Mike." Yadav told him. "We trailed down all the henchmen who kidnapped people and transported them from one ce to another. The only information they knew was a name. ''Rudramoorthy''. We ran down all the criminal list and list of people in the pharmaceutical industry to get to that name. But nothing was relevant. One day, Yadav sir called me and told me about a ''Rudramoorthy'' of the insurancepany he was now trying to switch to. We dug into his details and got to know that he is super rich. He lives in a very normal house here in Chennai. But he owns a little vige near Trichy. He has invested in many shares of bigpanies that are worth millions. This is entirely not possible with his sry as a senior manager in that insurancepany. When I said this to Yadav sir, he asked me not to disturb him but to get details of him." "What did you get? You are not supposed to pipe into people''s privacy." Ashok spoke a little irritated. "Calm down, Ashok. I hired him. If you wanna ask, ask me." Yash interrupted the cop man. "Why didn''t you tell me about your hunches? I don''t appreciate hiring mafia!" The cop bursted. "Guys, Settle it. We need to get answers. Keep this debate for some other time." Shiva stopped them from the further fight. "This man sold the medical information of people to someone. It''s organ trafficking to be precise. They get what they want and kill the victims in idents, I think! He finds the target person and employs someone who lives in that area that is in need of money to get the target''s trust. After that, he asks them to turn that person into a ce and pays them off. The hired person doesn''t know what happens to that person after that. In the start, he himself spoke to the people whom he hired to turn the targets in. Butter, he used henchmen to hide his identity." We all looked at Vishwa. So he has been telling the truth to Kavi. He did that horrible thing for money. He can be forgiven by Kavi since he didn''t know what exactly he was doing. "I did the same to 3 people. Now when I checked back on them, they were all dead. idents and cancer." Vishwa spoke out of guilt. "I am sorry I terminated you from your work." Yadav said. I love this about him. He is very human at heart. He doesn''t hold back to guard his dignity but apologises when he knows he was wrong. That adds pearls to his already heavy crown! "Don''t be, Yadav. When my manager called me to give my termination news, I got a call from Ravindar, the man who contacted me to turn Kavya in. He was the one that gave me money during college through my ssmate. If not you, they would have terminated me. They did all horrible things with Kavya and framed me. If not for you, I would have eventually left the office." he spoke looking at Kavi. I know he is feeling bad for her. But now I trust him that he did nothing that meant threat to Kavi''s dignity.For the whole time, Kavi didn''t speak. When I looked at her, she was terribly shocked and fear was evident in her eyes. "Kavi, Are you ok?" I asked her. "I know why they are behind us." she said. Chapter 64: 64. What Is In The Letter? Chapter 64: 64. What Is In The Letter? Akshu''s PoV "Kavi rx, We are safe. Yash will protect us. Tell us what you think." I consoled her. "The one thing that ismon between us is our blood group. We are AB negative. They are after us for our blood group." She eximed. She is right. We are both AB-ve. We knew it when we donated blood in our college camp. Surprisingly, my dad is AB-ve too. "That is right. We are both AB-ve." I told her. So just like Vishwa said we have this thing inmon. They knew me and after following me, they got to know Kavi has the same blood too. That is why Vishwa told her that she is in danger because of me. I remembered how the ident ims were made by all rarest blood groups and not even one in O ve. "Yash, when I made the sync of their software with us for uploading our database, I saw the ident ims and health ims were made by all different rare blood groups. Not even one O ve blood group." "So they target people with rare blood groups." Yash spoke to himself. "Dei Yadav, After a little chat with Akshitha when you were in Japan, I was kinda surprised to know the simrities in our life. I got back home and checked for the insurance where my dad had taken the policy. It was with the samepany Rudramoorthy is in now. My dad''s blood group is A1 ve. The ident happened months after he took that insurance policy." Shiva spoke. I had an adrenaline gush inside my tummy. What are we talking about? Killing people for the organs? Blood? Who are those evils? I held Kavi''s hand so tight. "My dad''s blood group is AB-ve, Yash!" I felt dizzy in my head. "Akshu, Akshu!" Kavi held my hands tight. "Shia!" Yash stood up and came to me at the speed of a lightning. He took me in his hands and I lost. Yadav''s PoV She is so beautiful. Everytime I see her, it takes immense self control to maintain that angry face. But then she is very poor at choosing the right word. She always pisses me off with her stupid selection of words. And again I love her stupidity too. I want her to realize that I will love her even if I dont get to have sex with her. I understand I made a wrong impression at first. But it''s time she changes her point of view. She is very insecure and at the same time loves me more. But she has to understand those two don''te in a package. I ignored her. When Raajiv said their wedding date is fixed, I almost lost it there. When she said she denied, I saw conviction in her eyes. I wanted to believe her. But then she made me angry with her stupid talking. When I got a call from her, all my heart wanted to at least hear her voice. But I disapproved of that desire. I got a message from her. "Something is not right here, Yash." is all it said. I was rmed with her texts and called Joshua to know her whereabouts. "Joshua, Where is Shia?" "In her aunt''s home, sir." "She is not safe in there. Get her out. Use weapons if necessary!" "Yes, sir!" I waited impatiently for him to call me back with the news that she is safe. Then another message pinged on my phone. It was a picture message. I opened it to see a photograph of a letter. It was written in tamil old fonts. I waited for what seemed like an eternity before Joshua called me back. "Sir, she is safe. I took her out of the house safely." "Is she ok? Did hey his hands on her? Did you use your arms?" "I was ready, sir. But she was safe. I don''t think he posed any danger when I got there!" "Then she is good? Bring her to me now." "Yes, sir. Right away." He said. I wanted to see her. I wanted to make sure she was safe. This urge to protect her is telling me that I have 0% anger on her. Mike called me meanwhile and said he knows who the boss of Rudramoorthy is. He said Shia is in danger. I have no patience to hear him through the phone. I called him to my home for a meeting. I called Shiva, Kavya, Vishwa and Ashok too. Mike came first and told me what he knew. I was surprised and shocked to know her family secrets. "It''s all because of your push, sir. If you had not told me to dig into Akshitha''s past and family, we would not be near them now. Even if we got Rudramoorthy, we would have gone nowhere. He would rather die than tell on his boss." he said. That is when I heard Bruno and Tiger shout with love. I knew she was here. "She ising now, Mike. I don''t want to tell her all these and panic her. Let''s wait to know what she knows. Ashok will alsoe. So don''t go into details where we went against thew!" I warned him. She knocked on the door and I let her in. She came in like a timid girl. Never once did she raise her eyes at me. I maintained my facade as well. Soon after, Ashok came in and started flirting with her. Idiot, she says thank you when he said she is beautiful. Of Course she is beautiful but only in my eyes. I felt like stabbing him right across his heart. I wanted to kiss her senseless in front of this moron to show him who she belonged to. He calls me her savior? And this loosu doesn''t tell him anything? She looked at me like a rescue baby. My anger on both of them took over me and I told him that she is engaged to someone else. She and her heights of stupidity! Loosu! Once everyone came in, I asked Mike to tell them what we know in order. He started exining when Kavya got a breakthrough. ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. We already know that this is all for organs and blood. But Shia and Kavya are not mere intruders like me, they are their targets is the new information. Rudramoorthy sells information of people with rare blood groups. The people behind this use this information to trap the targets. Shia and Kavya were targeted for their blood group. When I was processing all the information I got, Shiva said something that totally got on everyone''s nerves. They kill people for their organs. Obviously if they are not interested in donating and these viins want them somehow, they stage an ident to get to them. And it is very sad that Shiva¡¯s dad and Shia¡¯s dad were made victims. But the cancer part is still a mystery! Shia said something about the details on the database. When Shiva said about his dad, Shia trembled in fear and fainted. When I got her, she clutched my arms so tight and looked in my eyes before she went unconscious. "Shiva, call a doctor. Now!" I shouted, panicking. "Yadav, rx. She just fainted in shock. We must now call her mom to know about her dad''s insurance." Shiva said. "She will be fine, Sir. I think Shiva is right. She needs rest. She hasn''t been sleeping recently. She works like a machine until she exhausts. Whenever I wake up in the night, I see her sitting on the bed or standing near the window. It''s been days since she slept. Let her sleep now." Kavya said. She has not slept either, just like me. Poor thing! I asked Shiva to get the details and sent everyone out of the room. I sat near her looking at the beautiful face that is carved in my heart effortlessly. She is a magic. Just looking at her face wipes out all my tensions. "Yash, I''m so sorry. I''m really sorry. I want to marry you!" She started talking in her sleep. How cute can she be! I took out my phone to record a video of her confession. "Yash, That letter, It has something. Daddy! He is in MJ. Read the letter. Grandpa! He is not as bad a man as I thought. I cannot live without you, Yash!" she was bbering continuously with all irrelevant messages. I called Shiva back to know the update. "He took the same insurance, Yadav!" Shiva said with rage! "Someone killed our dad and made our lives miserable, Yadav. We must not let them go free." he said with bloodshot eyes. "You know old tamil fonts right?" I asked him for which he nodded a Yes! Chapter 65: 65. Grandma Is Not Grandma? Chapter 65: 65. Grandma Is Not Grandma? Yadav''s PoV ''Dear Sumathi, You might have known me as a stubborn, angry, egoistic man. You are not wrong. That is what I wanted you guys to think. You know I am a doctor right? That is the main reason I lost my loving wife soon after your husband,my son was born. I married She, a nurse in the hospital I was working at. She is not his mother but a step mother. A step mother with all the characters of a typical step mother. I knew I made a mistake by marrying her, soon. That is why I made sure he got everything when he grew up. I kept him under my watch. I knew about your rtionship soon after you met. I ran a background check and made sure you are ok for ngo. I got to know something was wrong with She when ngo was in his college, so I wanted you guys to stay away from us. So when I got to know that you guys married hurriedly because of your family situation, I used it to keep you away. I have been monitoring you all ever since. Though I was physically not with you all, my heart has always been with you. Akshitha has grown into a beautiful girl. I have huge doubts on ngo''s demise. Because, I have heard She talk about ngo to someone on the phone the day before his ident. I don''t know about Devaki, but she did the autopsy for him. Be careful with this family in my absence. I don''t have huge properties but I do have some that should legally reach ngo. I know you guys are not facing mary needs so I wrote my will giving everything to Devaki. That way, they won''t bother you after me. Don''t get me wrong. I don''t want to die a bad man in your eyes and my granddaughter''s eyes! I''m growing weak due to old age. The purpose of this letter is, I have been hearing your and Akshitha''s names in this house more often. I find it not genuine. Stay where you are and don''t ever get in touch with She even if she approaches. My blessings will always be with you and Akshitha. With love and blessings, Dr.Kathirvn '' All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Shiva looked at me with a question mark. I know some details in this letter beforehand. From what Shia spoke in her sleepy state, I know she didn''t read this letterpletely. "This letter doesn''t speak about Raajiv and Dheeksha. She is Shia''s grandmother. She is on her deathbed now. That is the reason they reached Shia and her mother. Or at least that is what is told by them. If She is bad just like her grandpa anticipated, she cannot be working alone. Because she is on her deathbed now but we are still in danger. There is someone or everyone in the family behind all this." I told Shiva. "I doubt, Yadav! Dheeksha is nothing like you say. I don''t know. I love her!" Shiva said. Pain and confusion evident in his face. I know what he feels like. Even we need someone inside to help us. "Call Dheeksha and ask her toe here." I told him. "Are you sure? If she is bad then you are putting everyone in jeopardy." "Do you trust her, Shiva?" "I do!" he said without thinking twice. I trust his gut feeling. "Then call her." He nodded at me and went out to call Dheeksha. "Yash!" Shia called me from the bed. I went in and saw her sitting on the bed. "It''s ok. Don''t strain yourself. Take rest." I told her. "Did my grandma kill my dad for his property? She is not my grandma, Is she?" she asked me, trembling in fear. I pity her. She heard the matter in the letter. "Shia, Listen, your grandpa knew something was wrong. But he doesn''t know the full picture. I know. Let''s wait for Dheeksha toe." "No, Don''t bring her in. What if she is bad? Yash, don''t bring anyone in. The whole family is doctors. Grandma is a nurse. I am so scared to even think about them." she shrieked in fear. "Shia, Shhh. Calm down. You know all the people in that house. Who do you think is dangerous?" I sat near her and took her hand in mine. "I don''t know. No one looks scary. I can''t even think bad about them. They all look so genuine. Athai is a kind doctor. Dheeksha is a bubbly girl. I see myself in her. Raajiv is a nice gentleman. That is what I think about them. Grandma is really very sick. I am not sure! " She is confused. "See, They are all not bad. Let''s take a chance." I told her. Dheeksha came in after almost an hour. I never moved from Shia. She held onto my hand and hugged my arms and leaned on my shoulders. It felt just like that day when I dropped her at her pg from the Pub! No matter what, she always seeksfort in me. It gives me so much satisfaction. "Yash, I want to tell you something." she said. "Don''t say anything and spoil this mood, Shia. Whatever issues we have had before still stays the same. I want to be your support now. I like being this close to you. I am happy that you findfort in me at your distressed times. But this doesn''t mean we have sorted out our differences." "Yash, I know. I wont take any advantage of this situation. But just hear me out this once. I made another terrible thing that you want to know. I don''t want anyone else to tell this to you and make things that are already worse." she said. "Huh! What did you do?" I asked her defeated. "What I am telling you now is not a separate issue. It goes along with the problem we already hadst week." A small smile crept on my lips looking at her. She is preparing me to hear her stupidity. She is really a ''Loosu''! She is scared to see my face. She put her face under my chin on my chest and started talking. She is so cute! "Tell me." I told her with my angry tone. She hugged me tight with my tone. I love it. "You have all the right to be angry. Just give me a tight p like you gave me before. But please don''t get mad and leave." she almost pleaded. "I won''t!" I said and I sounded soft which I didn''t intend to. "I went to Janvi''s home that day to get you back. I promise I will never think of anything like that in future. I am so sorry." she spoke in a breath. I should get angry now! Don''t I!? But I don''t. I love her more. I can feel that she is possessive of me. Very possessive. I see her love for me. Besides, no one will get angry when someone apologises like she does. I mean she is hugging me tight and holding me like for her life. She is definitely a magic! An angel that dropped from heaven just to make me smile! Chapter 66: 66. Stop This Damn Wedding! Chapter 66: 66. Stop This Damn Wedding! Dheeksha''s PoV Shiva called me when I was tending to a patient. I called him back once I was done. I love talking to him. Now since the wedding date is fixed, we need to go shopping for all the bridal stuff! Mom asked me to join Akshitha in my shopping. Me and Shiva talk like at least 3 times in a day. Since I am a doctor, I don''t work looking at the watch. Shiva understands that and I am d he did. You know, doctors marry doctors. That is like an invisible norm because only a doctor can understand another doctor. But my Shiva is so good and supportive. "Hello, Shiva. Sorry I was busy with patients." "Dheekshu, Can you meet me now?" "What? Now? Shiva, I have rounds in 30minutes. If mom gets to know that I didn''t attend to patients, she will bore me with her long lectures." "Dheekshu, It''s important. I want you to meet me now at Yadav''s residence." He sounds very serious. Why? "Is Yadav alright?" I know they are good friends. "Yes, When can youe?" "God, Ok! I will be there in another hour. I will finish my rounds now and will start. Send me his address." "Don''t tell anyone about where you are going." He said. "What? Why? You start to scare me, Shiva. Why are you so serious now? What''s the matter? Is everything alright?" "Just do what I say." he disconnected the call. I started doing all my assigned work until noon. I got to his ce in exactly 1hour. I am a perfectionist. Shiva was waiting for me at the door. How sweet! "Hi, Shiva. Wow, cool house!" I said. "Yes, Come in." He didn''t talk much like he usually does. I followed him upstairs. I saw a bunch of people sitting in the loft area. I recognise no one from the group. I ran behind Shiva and he went into a room. "Yadav, she is here!" Shiva said. I was dumbstruck at the scene in front of me. My soon-to-be-anni (to-be-sister inw) is sitting hugging another man. How dare she! "What the hell? Akshitha, what are you doing? So Shiva, this is what you wanted to tell me?" I couldn''t contain my anger. She could have said a in no to us if she is in love. Poor Raajiv. Mom would be devastated. "Dheekshu, Rx." "Shut up, Shiva. You knew it before and didn''t think to let me know? I couldn''t digest this betrayal. How will my mom and brother react? God!" "Your mom knows." Akshitha spoke, still hugging his arms. "What?" I could not believe her. Wedding preparations are still on and mom said nothing about this to us. "Your mom knows that I love Yash. I told my No to her." she said. "But the wedding preparations are still on? God what is happening?" "You mean your mom didn''t tell You that Akshitha said no to this wedding?" Shiva asked me. I shook my head in a No! Does Raajiv know? I hope not. She said no and still mom gets on with the wedding preparation? But why? "Give me a minute." I excused myself and went out of the room to call my mom. Shiva came running behind me and stopped me from calling mom! "Wait!" he said. "Why?" "Let her call, Shiva. Dheeksha, ask your mom what you want to ask. But don''t tell her that you are in my house and Shiva called you to meet up. Just tell her you called Akshitha for something and she said this matter to you." Yadav came out with Akshitha and told me.Though intriguing and confusing, I obeyed him. I called mom. Yadav asked me to put it on a loudspeaker and so I did. "Ma, Busy?" "No, dear. Was justing back from rounds. How about you?" "I just finished all my work until noon. I came out to see Akshitha to take her shopping." "Oh! Did you substitute someone for you?" "Ma, I called her from a jewelry shop to ask her to meet me here. But she says something stupid." "Dheeksha, Words!" She warned me. "Ma, She says she said no to the wedding to you." I almost shouted. "Yes, she did. I spoke to her mom about this. Sumathi aunty said, Akshu won''t go against her will. She also asked me to go ahead with the wedding n. She said she will talk to Akshitha." She said as if it was nothing. "Ma, are you mad? She didn''t just say she doesn''t want this marriage but she is also in love with someone else. You are doing wrong to Raajiv." I couldn''t believe I am actually having this conversation with her. Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. "Dheekshu, Raajiv is my son. I won¡¯t wrong him. Akshitha is a very good girl. Once after marriage she will take care of your brother. I know that." "Ma, you are talking like someone from a ck and white movie. You don''t sound like a doctor to me. You talk like an illiterate woman!" I don''t believe that my mom talks like this. "Ma, grandma is important. I dont defy that. But Raajiv¡¯s life is more important. Stop this damn wedding ma!" I pleaded to her. "Dheekshu, You are wasting my time. I have people to take care of. Our private matters are to be discussed at home." my mom cut me off. I looked at everyone. They all have a question mark on their eyebrows. They all expect answers from me? I have no idea what is going on here. "Let this aside, Dheekshu. I didn''t call you to talk about this." Shiva said. "Not about this? Is there anything else more important than my brother''s life? I think no!" I said gritting my teeth and ring at Akshitha. She is the reason for everything that is happening here. "Dheekshu, What do you know about your grandma and grandpa?" Shiva asked me out of nowhere! What do I know about them? Why are they asking about my grandparents? What is this all about? Why is everyone so serious? "They are a ... nice couple. Grandma never acted against grandpa''s will. Grandpa was a busy doctor once. We never got to see him when we were young. He was always in the hospital. Grandma was a nurse. But she stayed home and looked after us. What is wrong? You are all scaring me." "Do you know your grandma was your grandpa''s second wife?" Yadav asked me. "What?" "She is your grandpa''s second wife. " he said as a matter of fact. "No, It cannot be. I have sometimes thought that their marriage should be a love marriage." I said more like talking to myself. "Why did you think that?" Shiva asked me. "Because my grandpa''s name is Kathirvn and my grandma''s name is She. I thought it to be a Christian name when I was in school. Because I had a friend named She and she was a Christian. Butter I got to know that Hindus too name their kids She. So I let it slide." I said, still in trance. I can''t believe that my grandma is a second wife. "Ok, Then I will tell you another thing. Your uncle ngovan, Shia''s dad is not your grandma''s son. He is the son of your grandpa''s first wife." Yadav said. What am I hearing? Why is my family history being discussed here? Who gave them rights to snoop into my family''s shback? "Why is it so important now? What is this all about?" I asked Shiva in warning! Chapter 67: 67. Chocolate? Chapter 67: 67. Chocte? Yadav''s PoV I can see Dheeksha is genuinely confused. That means we can trust her. So I decided to tell them all who is behind all this. "Rx, Dheeksha, This is serious and I want you to be open minded while we tell you our theory. I want you to pay attention until we finish." I told her. "Please tell me what this is all about soon." she said Shiva went near her and gave her a side hug. He made her rx! It''s so good to see them help each other. "Sit down!" he said to her and sat along with her. "Mike, exin what you found." I told him. "Yes, sir." he started. "So we now know Rudramoorthy sells vital information to someone. When we trailed down even more on him, we got his substitute ount. This ount is being periodically loaded with a huge sum of money. And the moneyes from another ount that is named Em..." He stopped when we heard a doorbell. I stood up to go see who that is because my mom is not home. "Yash, Don''t go." Shia held my hands tight. "It''s ok. You stay here. I will be back soon." I told her, trying to release my hand from her. "Then I aming too." She stood up with me. She won''t listen to anything I say.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. We both went down and I saw who it was in the eye hole on the door. It was Pramod. What is he doing here at this hour? I opened the door. "Dei Pramod, What a surprise!" I weed him in. "Hi da, Aunty called me toe home. She said she wanted to talk to me about that girl in the orphanage." he said,ing in. "What? But mom is not home today. She went to grandma''s ce early today. When did she call?" "She called me yesterday. I told her I woulde today. She said ok." "Oh!" Even I forgot to check on that girl. Mom must have called him to get an update on her condition. "Ok da, If she is not here, I will call her before Ie some other day. So what''s up? Having fun in your home itself?" he asked me, looking at Shia. "It''s not what you think." I warned him while putting Shia behind me. I hate myself now, I am making her look bad in everyone¡¯s eyes. "Ok ok, Get me some water. I have no ns for the next 1hour. Let''s catch up on the things we missed in between." he settled himself veryfortably on the couch. "I will get the water." Shia went into the kitchen. "Who is she da? She is so beautiful!" he said. "She is my wife." I told him. I saw his eyes go wide. "Sorry da, But when did you marry? Why didn''t you call me? When did this happen? I was not talking to you like what? 2weeks? You married in that little time and didn''t let me know?" "Rx da, She is my fiance. We are going to marry. I won''t marry without informing you all." I told him. "Thank god, You gave me a mini heart attack." Heughed. "Here." Shia came with a cup of water. "Thanks, and Congrattions!" he said to her. Shia looked at me confused. I didn''t make any eye contact with her. I don''t want her to know I said all this. "um...Thanks, I guess." she said to him, still confused. But she didn''t ask him for what. I''m d she didn''t. "Here, This is what I have handy with me now." he gave her a dairy milk. "Thank you!" she said with a wide smile and took it from him. She is a kid. I hit my head mentally. "Alright da, Then I will leave now. You guys should be scolding me now in your minds." he said and left the home. "Uff, So many interruptions. Come let''s go and continue where we left." I called her. "Shhh. Wait, Let''s eat the chocte here and then go upstairs. There are many people there to share with!" she said in a husky voice. I couldn''t believe that I am actually admiring her at this most crucial time, in the midst of unbundling a secret, but I do and I am enjoying it. "God, Are you for real? Do it fast then." I told her. She opened the chocte and broke a cube and gave it to me. I can see how much she loves it. I am not a fan of choctes. "I don''t want it. Finish it soon." I urged her. "Hehe, thank you. I actually prayed that you should say this." She told me and ate it as quickly as she could. She is adorable. She caught me seeing her and she blushed. OMG can someone get cuter than this? "Stop looking at me like that." she said. "Haha you are cute!" I told her and wiped the teeny bit of chocte that was on the corner of her lips with my index finger. "I think I will have this chocte." I told her while bringing my finger to my mouth. "No!" she pulled my hand away and stood on her tippy toes and kissed my cheek. "I love you, Yash. Sorry, I couldn''t resist your dimple." she said, licking that chocte away from my finger. "I want to kiss you senseless now. But we have serious issues with us now. I won¡¯t stop if I start. So come before someonees down to get us." I told her getting so close to her that her bosoms touched me. I felt her breath getting uneven. She is so easy to excite. "Come!" I went away from her. She came with me and once again we settled with a sorry for the long interruption. Mike started where he left. "Yes, That ount holder''s name is Emily." He said. "Emily? Eli?" I heard Shia talk to herself before she slid down to the floor and fainted. "Shia! Shia!" I bent down on the floor and picked her up. "Call a doctor. Do something." I shouted. "Let me see." Dheeksha stepped forward. "Put her on the bed." she said. Kavya ran to Shia and sat near her and called her name repeatedly. "She is not responding. Her pulses are getting down. We have to get her to the hospital now." Dheeksha said. "Akshu!" Kavya started to cry and Vishwa came to her to make her better. Dheeksha called the hospital but I took her phone away. "No, Not to your hospital." I told her. "Shiva, Call a doctor. A trusted one!" I told him. "You are insulting me. You are putting her in grave danger with your decision. Every minute you dy, You are pushing her near death." Dheeksha shouted. "She will be alive only if she stays away from your family. That hospital is nothing but an organ stealing ce." I shouted back. "Yadav, Take her. Let¡¯s go to the clinic nearby and find what is wrong with her. I know that doctor. He is a good one." Shiva came running to me, stopping the fight. I picked her up and ran to the car while Kavya and Vishwa ran with me to help. Before I took off to the hospital, I looked at Ashok. "Grab Pramod. He is the one responsible for Shia''s condition now. Get him, Ashok! It must be that chocte he gave her. He can''t get away. He was just here. I want him now." I told him. I see all red now! But first things first. I drove the car as fast as I could. I can''t see her like this. I will not let anyone escape this. I should have made Ashok arrest the people responsible for this in the morning itself instead of this meeting. But we don''t have enough proofs against them except for our theory. I called for everyone to gather proof. To make a n to get the proofs we need. I hope it''s not toote. I picked her up and ran into the hospital. I didn''t realize I was crying until before Vishwa said, "Control yourself, Yadav. She will be fine." She should be fine! She should be fine! She should be! Chapter 68: 68. Where Is Kavya? Chapter 68: 68. Where Is Kavya? Yadav''s PoV I just couldn''t tolerate seeing her lifeless. Her speaking eyes and ever bubbly talking, I am at the verge of killing Pramod. I still can''t believe he did this to my love. He was my friend from my childhood. "Yadav, Please, Rx! Let''s see what the doctor has found. She will be alright, Yadav." Vishwa sat beside me. "I hate this, Vishwa. I should have not let anything happen to her. I knew she was in danger. I should have been more careful. It''s all my fault. But I had no idea Pramod would do something like this." "Nothing is your fault, Yadav. Please calm down. Control yourself. You have to be strong for her. She wont like you crying." "I should have killed all of them before they plot to touch her. I had all the power to finish them off. I wanted to put them in the hands of justice. I wanted proof. I am so stupid to have let this happen to her, Vishwa!" "Please, Yadav. It''s heartbreaking to see you cry. She will be fine" "I will kill everyone who is responsible for this, Vishwa. I don''t care about justice anymore." "We will see what can be done. Now rx." The doctor came out and we went running to him. I could not read anything from his face. He started to scare me to death. "How is she, doctor!?" "We have cleaned her stomach. We have taken blood samples now Mr.Yadav. I am waiting for her reports. Only after that I can tell what was given to her. Her pulse is normal now. She is out of danger." That is all I wanted to hear. She is out of danger. She is fine. "Shall I see her?" "Sure, But she is still unconscious. It may take another half hour for her to regain consciousness. By the way, the nurse said she didn''t get the medicine yet." The doctor said. "What medicines?" I asked him confused. "I gave a prescription for her Mr.Yadav. We have to give that medication to her. The sooner the better. So get it now." "To whom did your nurse give the prescription? No one gave anything to me." I told him while a nurse came out from Shia''s room. "I gave it to the girl that came with you." "Kavya." Vishwa said, rmed. "When exactly did you give her? Where are the medicals here?" I asked her while holding Vishwa''s hand. "It''s almost 30minutes before. The Pharmacy is just outside. " "God, How am I so careless?" Vishwa started worrying. I am worried too. Whatever danger Shia has, Kavya has too. We must have been more vignt. Shit, We ran outside to see if she was there. But she was not there. Vishwa is all tense and worked up. I know what he feels now. "Rx, Vishwa. We will find her." I told him. We ran to the medicals to enquire if they saw something. "Hey, did you see a girle out of the hospital? Any girl came to your shop about a half an hour before?" I asked him. "No, sir," he said. "Here, See this picture. Have you seen this girl? Did you see someone take her with them? " "No, sir!" he said. "Anna(brother)! I saw this akka(sister) some time before. She went in a taxi." A boy saiding from inside the Pharmacy. "Did you see someone forcing her?" Vishwa asked that boy. He was working in that Pharmacy. "No, She went with another akka. They talked and got in the cab and went." "Which taxi?" ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. "uber!" "Thanks, Here, have this." I gave that boy Rs.100 and went to the hospital again. "Vishwa, try calling her number. Looks like she has gone voluntarily. If she picks up the call, then we don''t have to worry about her." I told him. "ok!" He started calling Kavya. Meanwhile I called Ashok to know the status of Pramod. "Dei, Did you get Pramod?" "Not yet. We are still surfing the area. We sealed his home. How is Akshitha?" "She is out of danger. But still unconscious. Doctor is waiting for her blood test results to know what was given to her." "Thank god, Do you know if Pramod came in his car?" "No, I didn''t see. We have got another problem now. Kavya is missing." "What the hell? She was with you guys, right? What happened?" "I was so consumed in Shia and Vishwa was with me all this time. Kavya went to Pharmacy to get medicines for Shia but she didn''te back. We realised it only when the doctor asked about the medicines. Looks like she has gone voluntarily with another girl in an uber call taxi." "Ok, Yadav, don''t panic. I will track down the uber taxis that have gone to that area. You be with Akshitha. I will send 2 constables for protection." "Do something, Ashok. Faster" "You have to tell me the whole story before I can do something." He spoke a little irritated. I know, we didn''t tell everyone who is responsible for all the chaos. "Alright, bring Shiva and Dheeksha with you to this clinic. We need Dheeksha to get Kavya back if she has been kidnapped. We also need her to trap the targets." I told him. "Ok, We found Pramod''s car near the central railway station. Let''s see what we get there. We will be there in 30minutes." "Alright da, Come soon." I wonder if Pramod has escaped. He cannot escape me. He is a dead meat. "What happened, Vishwa?" "She didn''t pick, Yadav!" He sat on the bench, broken. "Don''t worry, I have notified the police of what happened. They have already started their search. Pramod''s car is found near the railway station." "I want her back, Yadav. She is the only good thing that has happened to me." "We will get her back. Don''t worry, Vishwa!" I truly don''t know what to tell him now. Nothing will settle him down except for Kavya. I called Mike to run down the details and find Kavya in his ways. I strongly believe his ways are faster than the police. I told him that Pramod is not a priority. Kavya is. "She is awake, Mr.Yadav. She asks for you." A nurse told me. I ran in to see her. She made me realize how much I love her. "Shia!" I went near her. She looks like a wilted flower. It stings my heart to see her like this. "Yash, I am fine." she said, pulling me down. "Shhh, Rest honey. Don''t strain." "I am hungry. Other than that, I am fine. I am so d, Yash!" She spoke tiredly. "d? Why?" "Because I didn''t let you eat that teeny bit of chocte!" she said, hugging my arm. She is happy that I didn''t eat it? "I am so sorry, de. I should have been more careful." "I love you, Yash. It''s not your fault. I know you will save me." she said, trying to smile. "Shia!" I kissed her cheeks and forehead. "I''m sorry!" she said. I looked at her puzzled! Why is she saying sorry? "About that Janvi matter. Can we please resolve it?" She is so cute! She is very spective. She says sorry for her behavior in a hospital bed knowing I am so weak in emotions now. She is smart and intelligent too! "I said this is not the time for it. Everything stays the same. We will talk about it after we finish the matter at hand." I told her trying to sound serious. "Pch! Where is Kavi?" she asked me with a sad little face. "Kavya is not here." I told her. I don''t know if I should tell her or not. "Can we atleast hug?" she asked me. I sat down on her bed near her. She scooted closer to me and hugged my torso and leaned on my chest. "Yash, Is Eli a bad girl? Eli is a strong headed girl. She is always bad and mean to me. But I don''t think she will do something like this." she told me. "Do you think that? " "I believe that!" she said. We heard a door knock and in came Vishwa, Ashok, Shiva and Dheeksha! Chapter 69: 69. Who Is Good? Chapter 69: 69. Who Is Good? Akshu''s PoV I can see how tired Yash looks now. I scared him to death. He loves me, He loves me for his life. He is pure, true and honest in his feelings. He has proved it yet again. Everytime I see his honesty, I feel terrible about myself for my very cheap and low act. I made a scar on his pure heart. I wonder if I could ever make it go away. I so wish my love would make it vanish. He ispletely under my spell. I know it for sure. But he just acts like he is still angry. I wanted to y along. I knew something was wrong. Yash is kinda restless under me. I have always felt him rx when I hug him. But now I can feel his heart race. He is not right. "Yash, I''m alright, I feelpletely fine." I reassured him. "I know, honey. Just rx. Take rest!" "I want you to rx. You are not normal!" I said to him looking up at his beautiful face. I know we can''t call a guy ''beautiful''! But he is! "I''m alright too, honey!" he said, cing a kiss on my head. What did I do to earn his love!? Someone knocked on the door. "Huh, Kavi came!" I eximed, trying to free myself from his hold. "Shhh, Rx. That''s not Kavya!" "How do you know?" "Because I called someone to meet us here. And that''s not Kavya." He said. "Oh! But where is she anyway?" "She has gone out... um.. I gave her some work!" "Oh!" Something is not right. But I don''t want to push him now. He is already under a lot of pressure. And it''s all because of me. "Come in!" he said. Dheeksha, Shiva, Ashok and Vishwa came in. Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. "How are you feeling?" Dheeksha asked me. She is angry. "Good!" I said still in Yash''s embrace. "Walk us through, Yadav. Where is your mafia friend?" Ashok asked him. "Ashok, Calm down man. You guys have so many protocols. But he has none. He is faster and more efficient. ept it or not, He got more information." Yash told him. "Details, Details are more important now. Quit your fight." Shiva intervened. "Alright, Emily is Shia''s neighbor''s granddaughter. This ount where they credit money to Rudramoorthy''s ount operates under her name. But she is not the one we are looking for. She has no idea there is an ount in her name. It''s all Benjamin and his sister She''s work." Yash said that completely took me by surprise. "Jamin uncle?" I asked him in trance! What am I even hearing? The Jamin uncle I know is nothing like anything he said now. He is a very nice man. "No, Yash. You are mistaken. I have known Jamin uncle from my childhood. He is a very good man. I have spent almost all my time there with him. I didn''t get any slightest idea like this on him all these years. Jamin uncle is innocent." I am at the verge of fainting again. "Shhh, Rx Shia. Yes! Your Jamin uncle is not what you see. She was a nurse in the hospital where your grandpa worked as a doctor. She was doing these illegal organ transnts and sharing the details of the patients who have rare blood groups with the help of her brother ever since. They had been doing this on a small scale back then. When your grandma passed away, your grandpa struggled a lot toe out of it and to handle your dad as a baby. So he started bringing your dad to the hospital along with him. She pretended to help your grandpa by looking after your dad. Your grandpa thought your dad needed a mother. So he asked her hand in marriage for which she readily epted. She never spoke about her brother to anyone. Once bing the wife of a doctor who had a very good reputation, She and Benjamin expanded their criminal work. They got tied up with some organ stealing groups. They made huge money! After your aunt was born, She''s natural motherly instinct came out and she started to discriminate against your dad. Your grandpa was smart enough to find that out soon and gave your dad everything he needed." He stopped and looked at me. "I don''t know what to say now. He is not what I see? How can a person pretend for a whole life?" I told him. Yash gripped me tight, giving me a cozy and safe feeling. "Dheekshu, Rx!" Shiva told her. She is frozen. Her eyes were pouring! "Why should I believe anything you say?" she asked Yash. Yash showed her a picture on his phone where her grandma is with Jamin uncle in their young age. "I want you to listen with an open mind, Dheeksha. I know it''s too much information for you to digest. But try to sink in all the details. Your guess was right. Your grandma is a christian." Yash told her. "But why?" she cried on Shiva. "Dheekshu, please, Rx! " Shiva tried to calm her down. "Shia, What was your dad doing?" Yash asked me. "He was into travels." I told him. "Dheeksha, what was your dad doing? Was he a doctor too?" Yash asked her. "No, He was into travels too. But he was into trucks and trailers that transport goods across south of India." Dheeksha said. "Right, Travels connected both your dads a long time ago. They became friends and ngovan uncle(Shia''s dad) introduced your dad to your grandpa. They saw him as a prospective groom for your mother." Yash said to her. So that is how Dheeksha''s mom and dad got married. My dad made his friend as his step-sister''s groom. "So all the idents were nned and executed by Dheeksha''s dad?" Shiva asked in rage. I know how he feels right now. I feel the same way. He nned and killed his friend who gave him life? "No, No, My dad is nothing like you say. He is a loving dad. He ... No, No, Shiva. He has nothing to do with this. He is not like you think. He can''t be." Dheeksha cried profusely. I really feel sad for her. "No, Shiva. Dheeksha may be right. Her dad may be innocent. We only know this much. We know for sure that Benjamin and She are bad. But there are still people in her house that help them. Raajiv, her mom and dad. Since her dad is no more, we don''t know his part!" Yash spoke. Uff, Too much for her to take in. "But you were right. All the idents that happened were nned and executed using Dheeksha''s dad''s trucks." Yashpleted. "Shut up, Mr.Yadav. Do you know whom you were using? My mom is a responsible doctor. My dad was a loving father. My brother has a high reputation in his major. He gets Patients from the north too. He is a famous doctor. Proofs!? Give me proof!" Dheeksha shrieked. "Here are the details of the idents that happened. Here are the details of your trucks rentals on the same date. We cross checked all the ces and found that your trucks were not there on those dates. If they were not there, where they had been? We got the mechanic to whom your trucks go regrly for clean ups after the idents. He confessed about changing the number tes before idents." Yash said. I feel like everything around me is slipping away. Whatever I had thought so far is a lie! Whoever I thought to be good was bad! Dheeksha looked at all the details Yash showed her. She is dumbstruck. Yash showed the video of the mechanic confessing about his part too. "So what now? These proofs can prove that they caused idents. But we cannot prove anything rted to organ stealing." Ashok said. He is right! "Right, That is why I need Dheeksha to search for some details in her house. Or in the hospital. Anything that can prove our hunch. Anything that is rted to this. Only then we can save Kavya!" Yash said. KAVYA?!?! What happened to her? Why should we save her? I saw Vishwa just then. He has never spoken a word since. He is broken and shattered. "Yash, where is Kavi?" I asked Yash, trembling. "Kidnapped!" he said. "I want to talk to Jamin uncle!" I said. Chapter 70: 70. Spy On Her Family? Chapter 70: 70. Spy On Her Family? Dheeksha''s PoV I have no words. I am not convinced with what they told me now. They want me to spy on my own family? Organ trafficking is a huge crime. A family with respectable doctors can''t do this. But my grandma had secrets? Does she have a brother? She has never spoken of him. Our trucks n idents on victims? Then what? idents happen in different ces. How is it connected to our hospital? "Let''s say whatever you told me was true. Let''s say I am convinced that my dad''s trucks caused idents. But they all happened in different ces. How is it connected to our hospital and my family?" I asked Yadav. But as a matter of fact, our hospital gets many brain dead patients whose organs are donated. But they are all very legal. My mom has a whole room full of legal papers maintained. "I have already told you, my dad was taken to your hospital after the ident." Shiva told me. ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. "My dad was taken to your hospital too." Akshitha told me. "God, What about all the other idents? How many of them have actually happened?" I asked. I cannot think of any low of my dad or my family. I have spent an entire lifetime with them and now they are all not they appear to be? "We have the idents list for the past 6years. That is from when Shiva and Shia''s dads left. There are 57 idents and 35 have been taken straight to your hospital. 22 others have been taken to the near by government hospitals andter somehow, they have been transferred to your hospital." Yadav said. "God, our hospital has a special service for ident victims. We give them advanced treatment at affordable prices. And ofcourse, the insurance policy also ys an important part. We have tie ups with 3 insurancepanies that give maximum benefits to the victims. So, many government hospitals transfer their patients to our hospital." I tried exining them. We ought to do good. Nothing like what they all say now. My mom has spent all her life in that hospital. She made us dream of bing doctors. She was very proud of us for getting into medical college with good merits. My brother, though yful with me, is a very good surgeon. He specializes in open skull surgeries. "Exactly, Somehow, your family gets what they wanted from the victims after theye to your hospital. Remarkably, all 57 victims are dead." Yadav told me. "Take the list of ident cases that came to our hospital. We hold the record for saving most of them. You cannot me us for some mishaps. It always urs! Not only to us but to all doctors." I tried telling them it''s not my family''s fault. "Dheekshu, I love you. I want to trust you. But Yadav set men and dug up all these dirts when he sensed something was wrong around Akshitha and him. They have made attempts to kill them twice. Yadav, in the park, Akshitha, in an ident. The second time through an ident when they both were together. Surprisingly, it was done by a truck that has just disappeared!" Shiva told me. "And also Kavya is missing now. She is in danger too because her blood group is AB negative." he added. "There is another part in this whole mystery that is very unsettling. The Cancer! Some victims die of cancer after they are freed from your hospital''s grip." Yadav said. God, What else are they going to add to the me list? "Yadav, Please, the victims will know if they have been operated to take out any organs like you say. If what you say is true, then there must beints on our hospital. We have only good will." I am tired of these usations! I am tired of exining! "You are an oncologist right? Is there any medicine that can aggravate the growth of cancer cells?" Ashok asked me. More like inquired me. "There is no medicine that aggravates cancer growth. But there are some chemicals that, ifbined in a right ratio, will do what you say!" "Wait!" Yadav pulled out a medical report from his phone. "See if these are the chemicals you talk about." he showed it to me. I was taken by surprise and horror to see the exactbination of chemicals that induce the speedy growth of cancer cells. It was a blood report of a 15year old girl. Horrible. So there is a group of people out there that do exactly what Yadav is saying. "What do you want me to do now?" I asked him defeated. Everything sounds serious and dangerous. I have to do something to make Shiva understand that my family is not bad. I don''t care about anyone else¡¯s opinion here. "I want you to go to your house or hospital where there are documents. Search for anything regarding the organs." Shiva told me. "Alright, I will do it. Not to bring you proofs you need. But to bring you proofs that my family has nothing to do with all this mess." I told them and left that ce with a very heavy heart. Akshu''s PoV I almost feel sorry for her. Even I would behave like her when someone talks ill about my parents. After she left, Vishwa came to Yash. It''s heartbreaking to see him. I know what danger Kavi is in. I am scared for her life. But somewhere in my heart I see light and hope! I know Kavi will be fine. "Yadav, What now? Every minute we dy, Kavya is getting closer to danger." Vishwa spoke. "I have men out there. Don''t worry Vishwa. We will...!" He was interrupted by a phone call. "Yes Mike." Yash put the phone on the loudspeaker. "We know where Kavya is. Pramod is also there. We are going in for rescue. You want Pramod alive?" "Yes!" is all he said.Vishwa cried out loud and hugged Yash. He poured out all the suppressed emotions he had so far on him. Yash consoled him. I love Yash. He is apassionate man. He comforts everyone around him. He takes care of everyone. "Dei Yadav, Ask him where they are. I will send back up." Ashok said. This time he is not irritated! Yash called Mike soon to get their location. Mike shared his location through Whatsapp. Everything happened so fast. I just prayed that Kavi is safe. We all had nothing better to do other than to wait in this clinic''s room. We wait for Kavi. We wait for Dheeksha to return with some proofs. "Yash, Shall I call Jamin uncle? Just to talk to him without telling anything? Let''s see if he knows that we know who he is!?" "I am not putting you on the phone with him!" "I am here, With you. Why can''t I just talk to him?" "We don''t want to alert him. Now stay quiet until we get anything. If Pramod talks, we might turn him into an approver. If Dheeksha has nothing to bring, we can use him against them!" "ok!" I trailed off. I badly want to confront Jamin uncle. I want to ask him face to face about all this. He plotted to kill me? I loved him dearly. I considered him family. "What if Dheeksha spilled something to her family?" Ashok asked. "She won''t. I trust her." Shiva said. "That''s love talking. I am talking about reality." Ashok said. "We will have Pramod and Kavya. That is more important now." Yash stopped them. "Yash!" I called. "Mmm" "I am alright!" "I know." "Shall we go home?" I asked him. Hospital, medicines, chemicals, organs, blood! These are too much for me. I just could not stay sane if I am here. "Not yet!" "Pch!" he is so hard to crack! The doctor and the nurse came in. They looked worried. No, Not again! "Mr.Yadav, We need to talk in private." the doctor told him. "No, I want to know too. Talk here." I interrupted. "She is fine right?" Yash asked, rmed. "Yes, But you need to report this to the police. This is not just any food poison. They have added heart attack inducing medication in something she ate. This medicine is only essible to doctors. We use it on patients whose heart stopped working due to shock, to revive them. It has an immediate effect if it''s injected straight in the bloodstream. You are lucky they gave it to her through food." the doctor said.So they wanted to kill me!? Again? "Can''t we find out it''s because of this medicine if she had a heart attack, in case?" Ashok asked. "Not possible Mr. This cannot be detected if it dissolves in the blood. We happened to detect its presence only because you brought her soon before whatever she ate digested." So it is a plot to kill me without any proofs. If dyed, I would be dead by heart attack. Nothing else? Why? Because I knew too much!? Because they have Kavi to rece my need? Yash hugged me tight. I hugged him back, still trembling. "Shall I call the police?" The doctor asked. "I am a cop, doctor. Everything is taken care of." Ashok showed his ID. "Shall I go home?" I asked the doctor. "Yes, You are one lucky girl." the doctor told me and left the room. "Yash, let''s go home." "Ok!" he said! FINALLY! Chapter 71: 71. Caught In Archives! Chapter 71: 71. Caught In Archives! Yadav''s PoV Pramod is not worth living. I wish to kill him. But if we can crack him, then he is very much important. That is the only reason I said not to kill him. Now all I wish is the safe rescue of Kavya. If Dheeksha can manage to bring in some proofs that would be an added advantage. I know Shia is badly in need to confront Benjamin. I am eager to know what he had nned too. But this is not the right time. Shia is in my hands. That is all that matters to me now! "Yash!" she called me. "Mmm" "Go get the discharge forms. Let''s go home." she urged me. I don''t want to leave her. I just wish to hug her all eternity. I got up reluctantly to finish all the payments here to go home. While I got out of the room, Ashok joined me too. Mike called me. "Yes, Mike." "Sir, we got Kavya. She is sedated I think. She''s got pulse but is unconscious. Pramod is in police custody." "Great job, Mike. Bring her to the same hospital where Shia is in now. Don''t dy." I told him. "Yes, sir." I turned to Ashok. He has a sigh of relief on his face too. "Alright, I will go see what Pramod has to say. I will keep you posted." Ashok told me. "Handle him like a criminal. He is no longer our friend." I reminded him. "Ok da. He will spill whatever he knows." "Keep me updated!" I told him. I made all the payments and went back to the room to tell the good news to Vishwa and Shia. "Vishwa, Kavya is rescued. She is on her way here. She is safe." I told them. Vishwa hugged me with so much emotion. I patted his back to calm him down. "Shia, we will go home after Kavya gets better." I said to her. "We will go home with her." she said. I nodded my head to her. What else have we got to do? Nothing Except waiting. Shiva came running in all tensed. Ok, Either Dheeksha is trouble or Dheeksha is in trouble. Dheeksha''s PoV I have a heavy feeling in my heart. I reluctantly went back to the hospital to search there first. Shiva came along with me. But not in my car. He followed me along. I connected him on my phone. He talked to me all along giving me hopes and will power. I asked him to stay away from the hospital and I went in. I went to my cabin and pretended to do something. I am so tense. I am not used to doing all these spying. What if there are other doctors in this hospital that do this? What if I get caught with them? I sneakily went to the documents archive. Where should I begin with? "Shiva, I am in the documents room. What should I look for? It will take too much time to surf through all these files." I told him on the phone. "Start with my dad and Shia''s dad''s file." He said. "But you guys did not donate your dad''s organs. Did you?" "Nope." "Then there will be no files on your dads. This archive is for organ donors and organ receptors. All very confidential." "Just give it a try on those dates." He insisted. "Ok!" I started looking for the files in ordance with the date and year. I found nothing. "There is nothing here." I told him. "Pch, Do you guys own anyptops? Computers? I mean who in this world maintains a room full of paper records?" he asked me, frustrated. "These are very important. We need to produce these files with the authentic signatures of the donor and recipient if and when asked. You know, everything is legal. Nothing like you guys say." "Then why are you so worked up and tense?" "Hey, I have no ess to this room. I came here sneakily." I told him in my defense. "Pch, quit talking. Search!" "It''s no use searching here. It would take months to go through all of them." "Thene out. We will go to your home." "Ok!" I told him and went out. But there is aputer in the corner of the archives room. I got back in to see if I could get into it. "Shiva, wait." I put the phone on theputer table and tried switching it on. It''s a damn old desktop with Windows 2000. It''spletely dusty and looks like it has not been used in a long while. "I don''t think thisputer will have anything on it." I told him. "Don''t waste time then. Come out. We will see what your home has in store for us." Shiva said. I was about to give up when the system finally booted up and asked for a password. A password? What might it be? I typed in our hospital''s name. ''ess Denied'' I typed in the archives security''s name. ''Wrong password!'' I typed in my mom''s name. ''Try again!'' Ok! Think! Think! I typed in Raajiv! ''error!'' My name? ''Wrong password'' R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only Think Dheekshu, Think, Think, Think! I typed in our travel name. ''tada!'' The system opened. OMG! I looked for all the files and folders hurriedly. When I saw a file named ''Donors'', I opened it. It was a long list. I searched for names. I typed in ngovan. Akshitha''s dad didn''t donate any organs. But his name popped up. His blood group is AB-ve. His heart,kidneys,lungs, pancreas and liver have been donated. I looked for Shiva''s dad''s name. He came up too. Who is behind this? I cannot doubt other doctors here. The password is our travels name. So it is my family. Who can it be? Grandma is here in this hospital. Mom? Raajiv?! Who can it be?! "Dheeksha, What the hell are you doing here?" a voice boomed in the room that scared me to death. "Anna!" I turned to look at Raajiv standing behind me with an angry face! I heard Shiva call my name repeatedly with so much tension on the other end of the phone before Raajiv dragged me out of that room. I am scared. Scared to death! Scared for my life! I am scared looking at my own family with whom I have spent my entire life! Chapter 72: 72. Ufff Long Day! Chapter 72: 72. Ufff Long Day! Yadav''s PoV Shiva is freaking out and I don''t know why is this all happening today, one after the other? I got hold of Shiva. "Dei calm down, Tell us what exactly happened?" I told him. "Dheeksha got caught by her brother. She is in danger. I think she saw something in the documents archive room in the hospital. She said something about an old desktopputer." "Did you try calling her again?" "The phone rings on. But she did not pick. " "Alright, We will call Raajiv now." I told him. "Shia, you have his number right?" I asked her. She red at me before giving his number. I must be the one to re at her for having his number. I called him through her phone itself. But he didn''t pick up. "Shiva, don''t panic. She is his sister. He won''t harm her in any way. Let''s see what we can do." Meanwhile Mike came in with Kavya. Kavya is taken to a seperate room for further treatment and diagnosis. Shia ran with her to the next room. Since it was a small clinic, we were the only ones in here. Vishwa is now rxed and went with Kavya. But Shiva is tensed. God why is this all happening on the same day? I called Ashok to know the progress with Pramod. "Dei, what did he say?" "You were so right, Yadav. He was with them. We didn''t have to try hard on him. He just spilled everything. We video taped his confession and sent it to the chief justice for quick arrest warrants. We are just waiting for approval. We might get the lead to get the whole medical mafia from them. Hopefully Pramod''s doctor degree will be cancelled and his rest of his life would be in prison. Same goes to everyone involved. We already arrested the henchmen and truck drivers." "Wow! Do whatever you are doing soon. Dheeksha is caught spying. Bring them safely." I told him. "Don''t worry. Since I already knew the targets, I have put guards for surveince in their ces. They can''t escape. Once we get the approval for warrants, they will be in jail." "Ok da!" I disconnected the call. Since I put the call on speaker, Shiva rxed a bit now. Now I am worried about Kavya''s condition. I went to the doctor for the briefing. "Doctor, what''s her condition now?" Vishwa was questioning the doctor when I went there. Shia was standing near him. "Don''t worry Mr. She has been sedated using surgical anesthesia. Her vitals are good. We have taken blood samples. Let''s wait for the results. As for now, she is good." the doctor said. Oof! A very long day. "How long before she wakes up?" Vishwa asked. "Anytime between half an hour to one hour." the doctor said. "Thank god." Shia said. We all went into the room to see her. She is fine. No bruises, No traces of violence. I wonder who got her trapped. She must answer that question after she wakes up. Shiva went out and I pulled out Shia too to give Vishwa some time alone with Kavya. "Shiva, don''t worry. Dheeksha will be with you soon. Just in a matter of time." Shia told him. "I wish, too. The police is right on them." Shiva said while Shia''s phone rang in my pocket. It''s Raajiv. Wow! "Hello!" I picked it up. "Mr.Yadav, Where are you? Why are you picking up Akshu''s phone?" "Because she is with me. Where is Dheeksha? We know everything. You don''t have to hide anymore!" I told him. "God, She is with me. What should I do now?" "Come to Aaradya clinic near my home. Bring Dheeksha too. I''m so sorry you are going through all this." I told him. "Please don''t. If not for you, we would have been living in a false world full of lies." he sounded defeated and wounded. After I got off the call, I turned to see Shiva standing with a stunned expression. Shia too! Oh, I didn''t tell them the back story yet. "Rx, Raajiv is not a bad guy. Dheeksha is safe. Bringing both of them safe was my goal. I pointed only that to Ashok. After I got you out of your aunt''s home in the morning, I called Raajiv to warn him about getting near to you. I knew he was in a physical rtionship with his fellow doctor recently. I also got to know she is in love with him. So I disclosed that we are in love with each other to make him stay away from you. He was shocked at first but then agreed to what was happening. I also told him about the dangers you got into because of Benjamin. I hinted to him about the organ trafficking being happening in their hospital. But I didn''t disclose that it was his family that was doing it. I just wanted to know his reaction to what I said. I felt he was genuine. He even offered to help me by looking into the hospital for any leads. He did what he promised. He sent the proofs to Ashok and me in email, just after taking Dheeksha out of there. The culprits will be in jail before tomorrow morning." I said. Shia and Shiva were in trance. I know. "Dei, If you have already set up Raajiv, then why did you send Dheekshu in too!?" Shiva asked me, disappointed. "Dei, I was not sure about Raajiv. What if he didn''t take whatever I told him seriously? Besides, I had no chance of contacting him throughout the day today. That is why I wanted Dheeksha to go in!" "You have a point, but you could have told me that Raajiv is on our side." Shivained. ¡°I didn''t want to trust him until he sent us the proof.¡± "So Jamin uncle is bad?" Shia asked me. Poor girl still has doubts. "Shia, do you remember the name of the medical camp youined about to the police?" I asked her. "Ummm... I think it''s BSD medical camp. But it was all fake, Yash. The police told me when I followed up on theint I gave." she said. "Yes, there are no medical rted firms on this name. But there is a travels in this name. Dheeksha''s dad''s travels." "No, Yash. You are wrong. Their travels office name is R&D Travels. R for Raajiv and D for Dheeksha." Shia said, correcting me. "Right. They made a little change in that name. They made R into B. They made the & symbol into S. And D stayed D. B for Benjamin, S for She, D for Devaki. They are the criminals who nned attacks on us. They are the ones who have been involved!" I finished the puzzle. "You have known this all along?" Shia asked me, shocked. "Nope. I knew only about Benjamin and She. I was not sure about Raajiv, Dheeksha and Devaki. Since I did not deal with Raajiv face to face, I was unable to wipe him off of the suspects list. When Dheeksha came to us, we all knew she knew nothing about this. So until before Raajiv sent out the proofs, I had Devaki and Raajiv on the hook." When I finished narrating, Raajiv, Dheeksha and another girl came in. Shiva and Dheeksha rejoiced in their reunion. Dheeksha was crying all the time. Raajiv ispletely off. I know, it''s huge for them to digest that their mom is really cruel and evil! "Who is she!?" I asked Raajiv. "My fiance. Anika. My junior in college and in the hospital. I was reluctant in admitting that feeling I had for her for so long. She opened her arms for us in our times of distress. She didn''t judge us. It''s time I reciprocate her feelings." Raajiv spoke, bringing Anika in his hands. Cool! Vishwa came out to us, "She is awake, Her blood work came in. She is clear of everything." he said. We all went in to go see her. Shia and Kavya hugged each other. "Who the hell got you trapped, idiot? With whom did you go in the cab?" Shia asked Kavya. More like shouted at her. "Pch! Don''t scold me. I am tired already." Kavya said in a very low voice. "Shia, Let her rest. We will talk about itter." I tried to stop her. "I won''t leave her until she tells everything. She scared the shit out of us." She bumped her fist on Kavya''s shoulders for which Kavya said "ouch". "Nithya. Nithya came to me and said Ranjith got into an ident and he needed AB-ve blood soon. I didn''t think about what I was doing. I just jumped in the car. I thought to help him back." she said. "Help him back? Who is Nithya anyways?" I asked her. "Yeah, he paid the relieving fee of 2khs for us." Kavya said. What the hell!? I red at Shia and she turned away. Awe she was so cute avoiding me. "Arivu kettavaley!(idiot) Yash paid for us. Not him." Shia said to Kavya. "How do I know that if you didn''t tell me? I got alert only half way through. I asked her how she knew that I am AB-ve and where I was. She sprayed something on me and nk. All I know was in the hospital bed with Vishwa by me." "Idiot!" Shia hit her hard. "Nithya is the one who told me about that reporter friend. It was because of her I was in your suite that day." she told me without making eye contact. She is cute. Did I mention that already? "Guys, it''s a long day. It''s 3am now. We need to rest. My home is close by. Let''s go there." I told everyone and took them to my home!Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org. Chapter 73: 73. The Confrontation! Chapter 73: 73. The Confrontation! Akshu''s PoV I cannot believe anything that is happening around me. The very humble doctor I saw is not what she appears to be. The man whom I thought to be family is not a good man. That olddy whom I pitied for is a devil. But thank god, all the good people are safe! Yash is looking very tired. Kavya is all better. But she is not out of the after effects of sedation. Vishwa picked her up and went in the car with Shiva and Dheeksha. Raajiv and Anika went in their car. It''s just us now. "Um... Shall I drive?" I asked him. I want him to rest. "I wish to live longer!" He said. I red at him. "Yash, I know how to drive. Kavya has taught me." I whined. "Some other time. It''s already a dramatic day. Don''t make this a climax!" he said very seriously. "Hmph!" I kicked the floor and got in the car. He came around to the driver''s side and got in. "I hope everything ends today," he said. Still serious!? "What do you mean?" "I meant everything. All this drama. ufff this is too much." he blew out rxing himself. It''s a sight to see. His arms flexing under his shirt. Though tired, he is sexy as hell! A very smart man! "What are you looking at?" he asked me. Shit! It''s a shame I got caught ogling him. "Nothing." I turned away to the window. "Oh!" he drove without talking. But I can see his dimple at the corner of my sight. His shrunken eyes and his dimples are the sign that he enjoys embarrassing me. I turned to him and kissed his cheek. "I love your dimple." I said. "I have told you before. Don''t kiss me like this." he spoke while stopping the car at the curb of the road. I have this sudden adrenalin gush. He turned to me. "What do you love about me?" he asked. "Everything!" I said. I don''t know why my voice sounds husky. I heard a chuckle. How sexy! "You are very easy to excite." he said with that same chuckle again. Dang, He is talking!? I have a serious doubt about his yboy tag. Have you all seen the movie ''Arjun Reddy''? The hero makes everyone think he had sex with all different girls everyday. But in the room, he does nothing except for drinking and crying about his lost love! "Have you seen the movie ''Arjun Reddy''?" I asked him. "Hahaha, I know what you are thinking." he saidughing. "Huh!" I gasped when he pulled me closer to him suddenly. I bumped into his chest. "I will make it hard for you to even get up. You don''t know what you are craving for." he said in warning! He is right. I don''t know what I want from him. But I crave his touch. Even his warning excites me like he says. Though I don''t exactly know what he means by excite. "You are aroused and ready now." he said. "Uh! No!" I know I feel something unsettling between my thighs. But he need not know that! "Really?" he asked me, getting closer. "um... yes." I said, getting back from him. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only "Shall we check!?" What? WHAAT? "What? How?" I asked, defending myself from him. He chuckled. "So you want to know if you are aroused or not!?" he asked me, his breath fanning my lips. I shook my head in a No. He came so close to me that I closed my eyes tight and waited in anticipation. "Zzzzp" I opened my eyes to see him put my seat belt on. Cha, He settled back in his seat and started driving like nothing had happened between us a little before. Once we reached his home, Kavi and I went into a room. Dheeksha and Anika went into another room. Boys settled themselves too. Sleep is all we are deprived of. Someone knocked on the door. Kavi was still sleeping. I opened my eyes to see the time. I searched for a clock and found it on the side wall. It''s 11.30? OMG! I woke up hurriedly. I ran to the door and opened it to see Dheeksha. "Good morning!" She said, She is all swollen and red. Traces of crying all night are so evident in her face. "Good morning!" I greeted her back. "Um... I want to tell you I am sorry. I behaved rudely to you." she said. "Please don''t be, Dheeksha. Anyone in your shoes would have behaved that way. I''m d you are safe now." I told her with a hug. Yash came down from his room. He is all ready to go out. I saw a servant maid bring us coffee. "Good morning guys." Shiva came out of his room all ready too. "Are Vishwa and Raajiv ready?" Yash asked. "I hope so. We shall leave after breakfast." Shiva said. "Where are you guys going!?" I asked them. "To the police station. Benjamin and Devaki are arrested. Your grandma is sick. So she is under arrest at the hospital." Yash said. "I aming too." I said. "Not now." He denied right away. "Why? I want to see them." "I will take you when it''s the right time." He went back to his arrogant-self. "No, I wille with you now." If he is arrogant, I am adamant. "Shia!" His voice rang in warning. "Please, Mr.Yadav. Take us too. I want to see my mom." Dheeksha added. "Huh, Ok. Then get ready fast." He agreed to her. We all left, leaving Kavi, Anika, and Vishwa back at home. "Why are you going to see them anyways? Dheeksha and Raajiv can go. Devaki aunty is their mom. Why do you want to see them? " I asked Yash. Me, Shiva and Yash were in a car. Dheeksha and Raajiv in another car. "Your uncle Benjamin wants to see me." Yash told me. "What? Why?" I asked him, rmed. "Don''t know." He shrugged his shoulders. We reached a ce which looked nothing like a police station. It''s like an IT wing. Benjamin uncle was handcuffed and was sitting on a chair in a room. Devaki aunty in another room. We got clearance from security and went near them. Ashok was there. "These are soundproof rooms. We have cameras inside the rooms. We will go in to talk to him. He is so rigid. He didn''t open his mouth except to tell us to bring you here." Ashok said to Yash. "I wille too." I said. So the 3 of us went into the room where Jamin uncle was there. "Ha,e, Akshu. How are you? Looks like Mr.Yadav has taken good care of you like I said." Jamin uncle spoke. He spoke like that samepassionate man I once knew. "Why uncle?" is all I could manage to ask. "Money. Me and my elder sister She have always been poor in our early age. We lost our parents at a very early age and I did everything to keep us fed. We knew how important money is. I started doing this at a very small age. I made my sister study nursing to aid us. My contacts grew bigger as we grew. I befriended Rudra and everything went smoothly until one day this Yadav came in. The only mistake I made was taking those kids from that home after he took over." he spoke with rage. "I thought of you as family." I spoke, I am at the verge of breaking down. "I thought of you as family too until one day when I happened to see your ID card. From then, you have be a target. We needed an AB-ve heart and your blood sma! You were readily avable. But then when I knew Kavya is the same blood group from Rudra, I truly wanted to leave you alive." he said. He must have known about Kavya¡¯s blood group from our office files. "Kavya is my friend." The more he speaks, the more I get disgusted by him. "But she is not my friend. I wanted to move away from Coonoor before we trap you. That is why I sold my mansion. But when Yadav turned up, I willingly sold it to him. That way I can keep an eye on him without raising any doubts. He was so good that he gave me a ce to stay. I thought to stay back until you are trapped. I asked my men to follow you once you were all by yourself in Chennai. That is when they told me about Yadav helping you. I thought it to be a coincidence. But again, you saved him from my first attempt on him. My doubts grew. It may be a coincidence too. I want to get a clear picture on what is happening between you two. Again my men spotted you two together at the Pub. It''s the same time, Vishwa turned down our offer to turn Kavya in. He was in love with the victim. He declined the huge sum of money we offered him. He is an idiot. We hate unnecessary kills! So we left him unharmed except that we damaged his reputation and love. I used the same time to know about your rtionship as well. So I put you in Yadav''s suite. He saved you! I know you both are in love!" He spoke long, He took the ss of water on the table and gulped it down. So it''s been him all along! "I got angry with you when you made aint on the home. Yadav was already digging up things and that damn connection between you two made him push forward faster. You escted things soon. She wanted to kill you soon to get your heart. We did that ident on you. Stupid apprentice didn''t puncture your lungs. You escaped. I saw that connection between you two with my own eyes when Yadav came to Coonoor. I knew Yadav would not let it go easily. So I decided to kill him. He is a boring O ve. But I should say you are one lucky girl, Akshu. I still think it''s your luck that saved Mr.Yadav twice from death. That ident was a flop again. I got to know you have surveince all the time you are out of your mansion. So we shifted our target to Kavya. But I should say, Vishwa was very good too. He protected her well. I came to Chennai to see She. I sensed something is off between you and Yadav! My men said you are going to Yadav''s ce. So I intervened and took you to Coonoor with me hoping to make that gap bigger. But that damn man that follows you everywhere came along. I couldn''t do anything." he continued. So it is Joshua that kept me safe at every instance. I am thankful to him. "I sensed Yadav got to know me when his man Mike was seen more than twice in Coonoor. I knew I couldn''t escape. So I destroyed every other document proofs against me. But damn, Devaki left that computer unformatted. You can never get to the next step in thisdder Mr.Yadav. If not me, there are many out there like me to do this." he finished with Yadav. "Why did you n to kill me again?" I asked him. "Haha, you mean the chocte? I made you eat that. Devaki wanted to inject you with that medicine. See I wanted to leave you alive. We did that to distract you guys to get Kavya!" he said with a smile. How can he smile? He is a monster! "Did you kill my dad?" I asked him. "Yeah, your blood group is very rare, you know. We get more demand at times." I wish to kill him. "You don''t regret what you did?" I am almost at the verge of bursting out. "Regret? I knew what I was doing all along, Akshu." he said. No tint of regret. This man is not worth living! Yash took me out before I broke down. "Shhh! It''s over!" he said, hugging me. Chapter 74: 74. Psycho?! Chapter 74: 74. Psycho?! Dheeksha''s PoV Shiva went in Yadav''s car giving me and Raajiv privacy. He is a gentleman. I was terrified when Raajiv pulled me out of that archive. I was scared of him. But deep down I knew he wouldn''t harm me. "Let me go, Anna. So you are behind this? I never expected this!" I started beating him to free myself. He pushed me in the room nearby and locked the door behind us. "Shhh!" he said. "Why?" "Dr.Bji ising. He is the one that is responsible for the archives room. Let him go." "But you..." "No, Not me." "I left my phone there!" I told him when I realized he was trying to help. "Shit! Is that in silent mode or will it shout?" He asked me. "I put it in silence like we always do when we get into hospital." I told him. We waited for Bji to pass. He stood directly in front of the door we were in. "Your daughter has been in there, I think she was the one that went in there before too. She has missed her phone inside. I think she knew something." He spoke on his phone and we knew it was our mom he was talking to. "..." "Yes, theputer was shut down when I saw it. But the keyboard looked like someone tried to use it. There were finger marks on the dust that covered the keyboard. She must have tried to login." "..." "Our men are waiting at both exits, madam. She cannot go out." "..." "I will see to it, madam. I will not indulge in any violence. Raaj is not yet back in the hospital." "..." "He went out to drop Akshitha. He is not back yet." "..." We heard the feet walking away from us! "Ufff! Anna, Is that mom he was talking to?" I asked Raajiv inplete shock. I don''t want to believe anything that I heard just now. "Hopefully yes. Now we cannot go out. We need a safe ce to hide in." he said. "What do you know?" I asked him. "I saw some donor applications in grandma''s room after Akshitha left home. I went into grandpa''s room to take a look because she wanted to see. Then it struck me that we never went to grandma''s room after she had been admitted to the hospital. So I went to her room. I tried cleaning it up when Yadav called me. He said something about organ trafficking that is happening in our hospital through a mafia named Benjamin. I didn''t take him seriously. I continued cleaning up the room and that is when I happened to see those papers. Every application had the same handwriting and there were some future dates on it. I was rmed. I knew Yadav was right!" he said. "You know Akshitha is in love with.." I tried to tell him but he cut me off. "I know. He called me to tell me that." he said. He didn''t sound disappointed. "Are you ok? " I asked him. "Yes, I had no feelings for her. I liked her. She is beautiful. But this didn''t hurt me, Dheekshu." he said and I felt a wave of relief wash over me. "Grandma is the one that is evil, anna. That Benjamin is grandma''s own brother. I didn''t believe anything they said but thatputer had details that said whatever they said was true. I came here telling them that I will prove them all wrong about our family. But it looks like I am wrong in everything I thought about." "Not only grandma. But mom is also in, I think. I was the one that tried to get in that archive room before." he said. "I am so scared, anna. What are we going to do now?" "Shhh, Keep it low. We have to take the details from thatputer and send it to the inspector and Yadav." "Mom will be in jail if you do that." I cried. I can''t do this to her. "She cane out if she is not at fault. We should do what is right now, Dheekshu!" he said with a hard voice. I know he is struggling to keep himself calm. "I think they will start to search for me." I said. As for them, Anna is not in the hospital. I wonder how they missed seeing hime. "Yes, We need to stay somewhere safe." He got out and asked me toe out after scanning the area. "Let¡¯s go to the archives room. They will not search for us there." He said which I felt was right too. "Right, we need the proofs to be turned in too." We went in there and went to thest corner of the room where theputer was sitting. "Hurry up and open the documents." he said. "It''s a damn Windows 2000 desktop. Wait!" I am petrified too. After a hell of a long time, it booted up. Raajiv took pictures of the documents and sent it to them. I am scared. What next? "Wait, Akshitha is calling me." He took his phone when someone came into the room. We unplugged theputer and stood behind the file rack that was up against the wall. We don''t know who that was but that man was very close to finding us. He looked at theputer and ran off. Ufff! "That was very close." Anna said. "Yes, What next?" I asked him. "Don''t know, Wait let me go and see if it''s clear for us." he went out of the hideout. I stayed put in the same spot praying for us to go out safe. "No one''s here. Come out." he said. "Anna, why don''t we call mom and ask her straight? I don''t like hiding. Let''s face it. I don''t think she will harm us." I told him. "Maybe, But we can''t take chances at this point of time." He said. We heard footsteps nearing us. We ran back in the same spot and hid ourselves. We didn''t even dare to breathe! "She should be in here. Find her. I''m sure she cannot transport the files from here. Thisputer has no inte and it is very slow. Besides, she doesn''t have her phone. So the data is safe. I have a hard drive with the details. Now crush thisputer and bring her to me!" my mom was screaming like a mad woman. I have never seen her like this. I just dissolved that idea of calling her and facing her. She is kinda obsessed. Her phone started ringing. "Yeah, Uncle Ben." She picked it up. Uncle Ben? Yeah, her mother¡¯s brother! How was it even possible for them to undery their rtionship? Are we that dumb that we couldn¡¯t see this facade? "..." "I know, It''s all because of that bloody Yadav and that girl. We should have killed her just like mom said. You had a soft corner for her." She was shouting on the phone. I could no longer see her as my mom. The mom that I know off wouldn''t get a bad temper and even if she gets one, she would never scream. "..." "What do you mean your home is surrounded by police?" "..." "No way they would have proof. I have just destroyed everything. We will handle it, uncle! They won''t have anything except the drivers from our travels against us. That''s all hit and run. Not a strong case. Besides, I made sure all the dead bodies were cremated and not buried. There will be no evidence of us taking the organs out." She said. Now, I erased even the minimal of doubts that she was forced by Benjamin and grandma to do this. "..." "Just don''t make a scene. Go with them. I will do the same. They won''t have anything to hold us in. I cane out with a clean name. It¡¯s an added advantage for us." God, She is cruel and evil. My brother got very angry and was about to confront her. Oh! That''s not wise to do now. I got hold of him. "Bji, Go see if there are any police around our hospital. You two go along with him. You both stay here. Bring that little devil to me, if she ever gets in here." She gave orders to everyone in the room and went out angrily. Yeah, she meant me when she said little devil. With her tone, I am sure she would strangle me if I get caught. Everyone left except for the 2 men she ordered to stay back. They just broke theputer into pieces and set it on fire. Thank god we took pictures of all the evidence. If not for Raajiv, I could have not done it. We heardmotion outside the room and the two men went out to check on it. We used that gap to call back Akshitha. Yadav picked up the call and told us we are safe. We ran out to see our mom and Dr. Bji getting arrested. Anika came to us. Only then I knew my brother had her in his heart. He literally cried to her. She gave her shoulders for him to cry on. Yeah, A perfect girl for my brother. I broke my trance when my brother patted my shoulders saying we reached the custody ce. It was a fancy ce. Nothing like a regr police station. We saw our mom in a room. Handcuffed! Though she is evil, she is my mom. My heart bleeds looking at her like this. They let us in that room along with a police man after all the security checks. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Ma!" I called her. "You little rascal, It''s because of you I am here." she shouted like a mad dog. I got scared of her. She is not that happy mom I have ever known. I got behind Raajiv. "Ma, Do you realize what you have done? It''s a criminal offence. How could you do such a horrible thing? We never even imagined such things and couldn''t believe that you were a part of this." Raajiv said. "You won''t understand, Raajiv. It was a pleasure taking things out of a human body. It was divine to see the parts go numb when I cut every nerve that keeps it functioning! I loved it! It was never money for me. I had enough. It was just a pleasure for me. And you spoiled it for me." she looked at me and shouted. She is a lunatic. She needs medical help. She is dangerous. I remember that my mom liked to disassemble every electronic toy we had. I remember she took off the batteries from the remote. She would say, she did that because we were over watching TV. I remember her always unplugging every device she uses when she is done. I thought she was careful not to waste electricity. No, She had a mental illness. She finds pleasure in making things go limp. Gosh, How did we not guess it before? Because she was so good at hiding it away. "Ma, You are a doctor. You knew you had to seek medical counselling. Why didn''t you do it?" I asked her defeated. "You call me a lunatic? I have made you all lunatics for so long that you didn''t even have the slightest of doubts about me. Your dad found out veryte. He too asked me this very same question. When I refused, he said he would go to the police. I gave him a little injection and saw his life get away from him." she said cruelly. OMG! She killed our dad? I hate seeing her! Thest string of hope cut me through there! I went running out of that room bursting out crying and I saw Akshitha in the same state as I am now. Chapter 75: 75. Why Did They Do It? Chapter 75: 75. Why Did They Do It? Raajiv''s PoV I knew this would be hard. But I never knew this would be horrible and heart wrecking. My mother has a mental illness. She is very dangerous to be let out just as a person. But she has been working as a doctor. I couldn''t even imagine all the awful things that could have happened. My grandma used her own child''s illness to help her make money? How cruel is she! She has been doing this awful thing even on her deathbed. She is a monster. If treated at the right time, my mom would have be a great doctor. The real criminals are my grandma and her brother. I couldn''t believe that my mom killed my dad by giving him that injection that induces heart attack. Being a doctor, she didn''t even try to help him but enjoyed his life end! I don''t know if it''s toote to treat her. But I know it''s better for her to stay in jail. "Why are you still standing here? You don''t have any questions?" my mom asked me. "No!" I said. I am afraid to lose my cool. I tried to go out when she called me again. "Raaj!" I turned to see her. Her eyes shone brightly. She has no regret for what she has done. "I never wanted you to marry Akshitha. She was just a prey for us." she said. "So you knew she was in love with Yadav?" I asked her unbelievably. "Ha, I knew more than that. We always got information on them from Uncle Ben. Only recently we knew her blood group. We knew she wasing to Chennai for work. We nned to take her down. Everything would have worked fine, if Ben uncle didn''t want to let her live. He suggested we take Kavya instead of Akshitha. That son of a bitch Yadav was digging up everything that made us make mistakes. When we knew Akshitha and Yadav loved each other, I contacted her mom asking for her daughter''s hand in marriage with you. I wanted to make a gap between them. I thought Yadav would lose interest in finding us if he was distracted. I made their gap big when Dheeksha brought Shiva and Yadav for lunch. But that bastard did whatever he was doing at an even faster pace!" she screamed . "Despite your illness, you are wicked and cruel, mom. Just think that you killed us too. Your chapter in our lives is done for good." I exited the room with a heavy heart. The more we go away from her, the more we will be at peace! I went out to find Dheeksha crying in the arms of Shiva. She is in good hands. Her future is shining bright. I went near them and he let her out of his hands. "Dheekshu, we have to sign some documents to transfer the properties that legally have to go to Akshitha and her mom. I am going to make papers that say we are free of our mom, that we have no connection with her or whatever she is connected to. I am not going to attend any trials to bring her out. I''m out." I told her. "Do whatever is good for us, anna. I never want to see her again." she said in between her sobs. "Raajiv, I''m so proud of you. You did what is right. This is not the right time, but I would like to prepone our wedding. I would say, we both get married soon and move on with our lives." Shiva said. He is right. Pondering upon what happened is not going to get us anywhere. I should prove myself clean to get my reputation back. Dheekshu has to do it too. We have to think forward to move on with our lives. We have no one now except for ourselves. We need to make a family that is true and loving to us. Getting married is one way we would get what we wanted. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only I nodded to him as my response. Yadav brought Akshitha to us. She is tired of crying too. "Here, be with them. I will be back in a minute." he said to her. "No!" She held him tight, not letting him go. "Pch, Shia listen. I will be with you in no time." he freed himself from her and went back into that room where Benjamin was held captive. Yadav''s PoV I couldn''t see her cry like this. I have a death wish for that bastard. I want to know why he wanted to see me. But I could not let her cry all alone. "Shhh Shia, Calm down. It''s all over now!" I tried telling her. But she cried like there is no tomorrow. It hurts me to see her cry. "I will make sure they all reap what they sowed. If you want them dead, I can make that happen too." I told her if that will make her feel better. "No, No, Yash! I wish to kill them too. But they are not worth touching. Let the court punish them. I don''t want to make your hands dirty." she said leaning on my shoulder. "Then stop crying like this." "I don''t know. I don''t know what to trust in anymore. How can he pretend to be someone else for his whole life? My dad was really a good friend to him. How could he do this to my dad? I have spent the maximum of my life in his mansion with him. I have watched very old movies with him. I have shared almost all of my feelings to him more than I did to my mom. I don''t know, Yash!" she cried more. "Shia, listen to me. This is over. You have to let it go. This doesn''t mean you have to change anything you trust. Be yourself. That''s the real beauty in you. He is just garbage you passed by. He is not worth your time and tears." She nodded her head in agreement with me. I saw Shiva, Dheeksha and Raajiv standing out. I took Shia to them and went back to that room with Ashok. "Why did you want to see me?" I asked him. "I wanted to see the man that is responsible for my descent." "Well then, Have you seen me enough?" I stood up from the chair. "If I had left Akshu alone, would you have stopped searching for me?" He asked me. "It''s not just about Shia. I would have caught you even if you didn''t touch her." "Why?" "I hate people who earn money by investing others. Prostitutes are to be seen with respect as compared to you." I spat at him. "Do you think I did this for money? I have plenty. I have more money than you have." He said with cold eyes. "You are wasting my time Benjamin." "I did this as a business, Yadav. You have your business that is given down to you by your father. I had none. I made my own business. Know what? I am very good at it!" heughed. I stood up again to leave. "When did you know?" He asked again. "I suspected you when you warned me about taking good care of Shia. You were directly or indirectly involved in every danger she stepped into. It was you who asked her to go pick Emily. It was you with whom she went to Coonoor thest time. Mike confirmed it to me yesterday." ¡°I wanted to be that good old uncle in her eyes. Though I did things that were hical, My love for Akshu was true from the heart.¡± He said. How dare he talk about her. I wanted to leave the room but he had to answer another important question. ¡°What is all with that cancer? How did you do that?¡± I asked him. ¡°Oh, that was a side business, you know. We not only stole organs, we also wanted blood sma that we export to foriegn countries for the cosmetic industry. When we get sma out of our victims, they will go very weak. If their blood stream fails to produce enough sma in two days they will have to seek a doctor''s help and if checked, they would definitely know that this is because of the sma deficiency. If they checked their body thoroughly, doctors might even find that they are robbed of sma. That is no good right? So we inject our victims of sma with a cancer aggravating chemical that was used by a pharmaceuticalpany that is trying to find medicine for cancer. Oh, and they needed cancer patients first to try their medicine on them!¡± He finished. I think we had all the answers the police needed to confine them into the prison walls for the rest of their lives. "Raajiv said his mother has a hard drive that has proofs. I have sent men to search in their home. We will take it up from here. You guys can let it rest." Ashok told me after exiting the room. "Ok da, Thanks. Where is Pramod!?" "He is in another interrogation room. Wanna see him?" "Uh, No, Don''t leave him out!" I told him. "Haha no one in here wille out alive." "Better!" I went out to Shia and others. "Shall we go?" I asked them. Everyone is better now. "Yeah!" Raajiv said. Joshua came to me! God I forgot about him."Hey Joshua, Sorry I forgot about you." "No problem, sir!" "Everything is over, Joshua. Thank you so much for keeping her safe for so long." I told him with heartfelt gratitude. "Yes, Thank you so much Joshua!" Shia told him with a hug. "No problem, madam. I did the work assigned to me." he said to her. "I will have you in mind, Joshua. I will be giving you work more often." "Pleasure, sir!" he left. We all got in the car too. This time Shiva went with Dheeksha and Raajiv. "Um... Am I forgiven?" she asked me. "Yes you are. I told you that before. I have called your and Kavya''s parents and let them know a gist of what happened. They should be in my home already." I told her. "What? She will take me to Coonoor now. Why did you call her?" She whined just like the first time she whined in my car fearing Kavya. "What do you mean why? This is big. Your parents are to be notified that you are safe. Besides, she was panicking already because of Benjamin''s arrest yesterday night." "You want me to go with her?" she asked me with a little voice. How adorable! "That''s between mom and daughter. I don''t wannament." "Idiot!" she mumbled to herself but I heard it loud and clear. "What did you just say?" "Nothing." she turned to the window. "Ok!" I just let it go. "What ok? Nothing is ok. I love you. You love me. I made a terrible mistake. You got angry. You forgave me because I was no one to you. I don''t want that forgiveness! Be angry at me. p me like you did before. Then kiss me like there is no tomorrow. Don''t send me with my mom now. Tell her that you are going to marry me." she spoke in a breath, holding on to my shirt. "Shhh, Rx. You are spoiling my shirt." I stopped the car and freed myself from her. "Listen, I had feelings for you. But not anymore. You don''t have trust in me. You have insecurities. I love making films. I''m not going to stop it any time soon. What if therees another gossip that connects me to a leading actress? You will make our lives a living hell. You don''t belong with me." I told her. She cannot get my forgiveness so easily. It''s true I have no anger for her now. But that doesn''t mean she didn''t hurt me. She hurt me so badly. The intensity of the incidents that happened after that are too much that we got carried away from it. She must earn her forgiveness! I''m not going to just give it to her. "You are mine! You cannot change that. I know I made a terrible mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. It''s how people get better! You belong to me. How am I not belong with you? I pulled you to me before. I can do the same again. Let''s see how long you are going to resist me." She put up an open challenge to me. I love it. I love this about her. She won''t just quit. I''m eager to know what she is going to do to sweep me off my feet. "Haha, try your best, honey!" I said to her. Her mother was ready to take her home when we went in. Kavya looked happy. I think her parents said ok to marry Vishwa. I am happy for them. They all thanked me and left with their daughters! I am now waiting for my cute girlfriend''s next move! Chapter 76: 76. Her Mother鈥檚 Approval Chapter 76: 76. Her Mother¡¯s Approval Akshu''s PoV This man has made me insane. My mom took me from him with just a ''Thanks'' to him. He did nothing better than nodding to her. Asshole. Above all, Kavya is in the clouds. Her dad and mom approved of her love for Vishwa. Dheeksha is in the clouds too. Shiva and Dheeksha''s wedding date is fixed prior to the actual date. Raajiv and Anika''s wedding is on the same date. It''s just 15 days away! Everyone is happy, except for me. No one is actually free to talk to me. I kept calling Yash! Nope, No response. I kept messaging him. That asshole reads all my messages once I send him. But never replies. Fuck him! I went to my mom! "Ma, I am going to Chennai tomorrow. I will join my office. It''s boring here." Me being here in Coonoor is not going to help me win him back. "But Akshu you cannot work with him." Mom said. "And Why is that?" I can''t believe my mom still thinks bad of him. "Because, Chennai is not safe for you anymore." "Oh really? The family you hooked me with, was the danger to me. Yash took care of it all. Now there is no danger. Even if somethinges, he will take care of me like he did before." I told her. "Akshu!" She got angry. Well, I am angry too. "What? You came into the scene like the police in tamil movie. Only in the climax, that too after everything was sorted. Ma, understand. I love him. I will never marry another man. So get it in your thick skull. He is my husband." I almost shouted. She can''t be serious! "Akshu, I agree he protected you. But he didn''t stop you froming with me. Which means he is not into you. He is a glowing star up above. We can just admire. We cannot go near it or own it." She said. Now I''m angry at Yash. If at all he had listened to me and spoke to my mom on that day, she would have believed that he is in love with me. "That is because he is angry at me. I have to go convince him. Like it or not, I am going to Chennai tomorrow." I dered a war on my mom. "You cannot serve your love at someone''s feet, Akshu. That will make it easier for them to just kick. Love is to be earned, not to be received as charity!" She said. Know what? She is right. But I am now going to take what belongs to me. No earning, no receiving, just taking. "Wow! Ma, you can try writing dialogs for sad romantic movies. Ma, listen please, I made a mistake. I am going to make it right. He is mine. You better make up your mind to ept him." "But he is not right for you. I... I don''t like him." She said. So she stops me because she still thinks he is not the right one for me? Even after so many incidents? Even after I repeatedly told her that he is my life? Is my wish not important to her? "Whoa! You don''t have to like him. You have to ept him, you have to respect him for if not for him, you would have lost your only daughter to the saem people who killed my dad. Have you heard this expression? ''You like because,but love despite!'' You will like someone for the qualities they have. And you love someone despite the qualities they have. But ording to me, you can like someone without reasons. But to love, you have to feel them in every cell of yours. I feel him in me, ma. He is my destiny! That feeling I get whenever he is with me, I can''t even put it in words. He is a gem of a person, ma. Please!" I tried telling her how important Yash is to me. "If that will make you happy I am ok with your decision!" She said. Yay, Finally! Gosh! "Thank you, ma!" I hugged her. Ufff! I had to talk like I am giving a speech on a political stage to make my mom agree. Anyways, I am happy with the results. Yash, Here Ie. Let''s see how long you will resist me! Yadav''s PoV "You did something to my daughter. But I am happy now, Yadav!" My aunty(Shia''s mom) spoke to me on the phone. Haha, yes. You guys guessed it right. I was on the phone the whole time. I listened to every word she spoke. She is a feisty girl. I love her. So she ising back here tomorrow to win me back? I am very excited. "Haha, trust me, aunty. I did nothing. But your daughter changed the whole me into someone who loves only her in this wide universe." I told her. "I wish you both to be the same for eternity!" "I can promise that to you, aunty." I assured her. When we came back from Coonoor, I knew Shia''s mom was not happy. I called her once we came back after settling the ident issues. I don''t know if I could convince her. But I tried anyway. ''I am impressed!'' is all she told me. That gave me a boost. I have been in constant touch with her. We had an agreement not to tell Shia about her approval. I took this decision when we had that dispute. I wanted to punish her for her stupidity. We got off the call and I went on with my work. I made sure to finish all my works that is assigned for tomorrow too. I may be busy tomorrow with my darling. Shiva came in. "Yadav, I have to go shopping. Dheeksha is waiting." He said. "Dei please da, just this file and you are free to go. Please." I pleaded with him. "God, My wedding is 15days away and I have not yet started preparing. Alright, just for today. I am taking off for a month from tomorrow." "What? 1 month? Are you crazy?" I cannot afford to let him go for that long. There are certain businesses that Ipletely rely on him. "What? 15 days before and 15 days after the wedding. That''s reasonable." he argued. He is right. I have to give him that much. But if he is not here, who will help me carry out all the works? "Don''t panic, I have arranged for a temporary secretary for you for this one month that I am away. That person will join tomorrow. Nothing will stop. Now give that file." he got the file and went out. I dont think a new person will be as efficient as him! Anyways, he needs a break to look after his personal life too. My phone pinged with a message. ''Check out my status As*h*l*''!'' OMG, That nerve of her. I checked her status on Whatsapp. "Odum neeril or ithan naan! Ulle u eeram neethaan! Varam kidaithum Nan thava vitten Mannippaya! Anbe! (In the running water, I am just a wave You are the wetness that prevails inside! I missed the boon I have got! Will you forgive me! My love!) oru naal sirithen maru naal veruthen Unai nan komal kondru puthaitheney Mannippaya!" (I smiled a day, I hated you the other day! I buried you alive! Will you forgive me!?) Awe, She is so expressive! I just wish to go hug her tight and tell her that I am not angry anymore. But you know, I love to see what she is nning to do. Also, that message she sent me and the content in her status, they don''t sit well. Did you notice that? She is being cheeky on the message and too polite in status. My phone pinged with a message again. ''You didn''t see the full status, did you?'' What? I clicked her status again to see itpletely. ''This is yourst chance to ept that you are just ying!'' Haha if not? She is an exclusive girl. I am so ready to y along. ''I am not ying, Ms.Akshitha. You are a closed chapter.'' I replied to her. ''Alright, Mr.Yadav. You will suffer for this. Good bye!'' All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Oohhh! Is she angry!? Chapter 77: 77. Is He Possessive? Chapter 77: 77. Is He Possessive? Akshu''s PoV I am all set to go to the office. I went to my pg and vacated the room. I took all Kavi''s stuff and dropped it in Shiva''s home. I got my appointment order from Shiva as Yash''s personal secretary. Yeah, It was my idea that Shiva takes a month long vacation. I have to make some arrangements in the office to settle myself in there as his PA. I am going to create havoc in his office that hees and surrenders to me as soon as possible. That nerve of that man, he calls me Ms.Akshitha? He is done for good. No more mercy and no more pleading or pleasing. I went to the ce where I am going to stay for the month and kept all my stuff in there and got ready for the first day of my office. Ok, First day as his secretary. I have a strategy to drop him on his knees. 1. Irritating! 2. Seducing! 3. Pushing off his limits! 4. Giving the taste of his own medicine! 5. Waking up the possessive side of him! He thinks he is punishing me for my deeds? I am already sorry for it. I told him the same. But that dumb head is not heeding to my request. Now I have my mom''s approval too. Shalu aunty and Aravind uncle are on my side. Shiva is also on my side. Yup, I told him everything. He was angry. But he also knew his friend''s happiness lies in me. See, everyone knows it except for that dumbass. He said he would do anything in his power to make Yash ept his feelings for me. As promised, he gave me some credentials as Yash''s PA. I took a bath and surfed all of my clothes to find something sexy. Oops, No sexy outfit? I made a note to go shopping tonight aftering back from the office. I looked at myself in the mirror. Satisfied with what I saw, I came out of my new room. "Alright, aunty. Will see you in the eve. Bye." I told my aunty. "Hey, You didn''t eat your breakfast yet." "Awe, I will have it tomorrow." I told her and ran out of the home. "Ok, All the best!" She came to the doorstep to send me off. "Thanks, aunty. Bye." "Bye, dear." I took my bike and went off to the office. I know, I am too early today. I have some pre-work to be done before that idiotes to office. I made some notices. I sent some emails to the staffs. I made some changes in the seating positions. I altered his room and with the help of the security, I moved my table in his room and set up my office space. Woah, Tiring and exhausting! I called up Shiva. "Hey, Shiva! " "Hi Akshitha, Good morning. Is everything set?" "Yup, All done at my end. I want at least one more hour. I need all the staffs to see the changes and settle before hees here." "You want me to dy him ONE hour? What did I tell you about his time? He is a punctual man." He said. "Oh, cut the crap! He is going to be a family man soon. Punctuality and family man don''t sit in the same seat, you know. He better practice it." "Haha, You are just the right one for him. I will try to hold him up." "That''s a good boy. Bye." "Haha, I am already feeling bad for my friend. Bye!" I hung up on him. Alright, now I just have to make the staffs settle in their new ces. Everyone came in and there was chaos. As they saw the mail, they all made the wanted changes and yes, it''s all set now. All this work made me tired. I went to the restroom to groom myself. I have to be appealing to that idiot. All the best, Akshu. You can do it. Just have to ignore all his yelling and anger. And concentrate on making him kneel in front of me. Ufff! Deep breaths! I said to myself. Yadav''s PoV When I stepped on my floor, everything looked so weird. I see only men. The reception desk is not avable. Who made all these changes? What the hell is going on here? I see all the men that were working here before stay the same. Every spot women were working before is now taken by other men. I know that guy. "Good morning, sir!" "Good morning. You were on the third floorworking right?" I asked him. "Yes, sir!" "What are you doing here?" "My ce has been changed, sir. We all got mail today when we arrived. The securities helped us change ces quickly. We are all set now, sir." ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. "Oh, Who gave you the orders to change?" "It was from Shiva sir''s mail. But the mail said, from your new secretary." he said. I have the slightest idea of who it might be now. She is absolutely ridiculous, stupid yet brave! I went in my cabin to see that idiot sitting straight opposite to my table. She has set up a work station for her in my fucking room? I wish tough out loud. So Shiva is on her side. "Good morning, sir!" She greeted me with utmost politeness. "Bad morning. What the hell.." she interrupted me. "Are you doing here? Is that it? I am tired of you repeating the same dialog since we met. I am your new secretary, sir. Shiva sir didn''t tell you?" She is very bold. That won''t work honey. I decided to irritate her. "He did. My morning didn''t start up well because I didn''t see my beautiful receptionist. Why did you make this floor so boring by putting all the men!?" I shouted. It is so hard not tough looking at her red face. She is very angry. "Shiva sir has given me orders to make the productivity high. Those girls are very distracting, SIR!" she emphasized thatst part. "I don''t want you in my room. You are invading my privacy. Get the hell outta my room." I told her. "Mudiyathu da!(I can''t!)" what did I hear? "Excuse me?" I asked her. She called me ''da''? "I said, I can''t. Now learn to live with it." she said on my face and went to her seat. Wow, I love it. My fierce and feisty girl. I loved it when she called me ''Da''. She is so confident in bringing me down. I am going to y this game till the end. I am so willing to see what all she has nned. "Sir, you have a meeting now." She came to me with her ipad. "Alright, You know what to do right? Bring your ipad and take notes on important details." "Yes, sir!" She came with me. She walked so close to me. Soooo clooosee! "What are you doing?" I asked her. I whisper yelled at her. Everyone is looking at us and she walks almost brushing her on me. "Um..Nothing, sir." she brushed her hip with mine. "Shia!" I warned her. "My name is Ms.Akshitha, Sir!" she said, puckering her lips at me. Did I make a mistake by brushing her anger? She is going to make it impossible for me. "Hi Yadav, How are you?" Gaurav, our ally, greeted me in the meeting hall. "Good, How are you?" "I''m good too. Wow you have a very beautiful secretary." he said looking at Shia. "Hello beautiful, I''m Gaurav." he introduced himself to her. GOD! I FEEL THAT SAME RAGE TAKING ME OVER. "Hi handsome, Akshitha!" she shook hands with him.How dare she call him handsome? I started the meeting to cut them from talking more. He took a seat near Shia. She was looking at him when I was reciting the important notes. She is testing my patience. "Shia, This is not right." I murmured to her in a low voice after sitting. "Pch, Enna ya un problem? (what is your problem?) You said my chapter was closed. I have a prospective boyfriend here. What''s wrong in persuading him?" she asked me. "You will not see him." I told her and left the meeting hall. She is bold yet stupid! Chapter 78: 78. Can I Seduce Him? Chapter 78: 78. Can I Seduce Him? Yadav''s PoV After the meeting, we went to my, No, our room. Wow, that sounds sexy. Once in, I pulled her to me by her elbow. "What the hell were you thinking? He is a flirt. How dare you give him your number?" "Aahhh, Valikuthu da!" (Ahhh! It hurts!) "God, sorry. But what you did was outrageous." I left her arm. "Why does it bother you anyways, SIR?" she had that stupid smirk on her face. "Fine!" I don''t want to ept my defeat on the first day. We carry on with our work. During lunch, I got up to go have my lunch. But She was still working. "Um... Ms.Akshitha, It''s lunch time." "Oh, Thank you for reminding me, Sir." She continued her work. She has too much fat reserve on her mind. "Hey loosu, Go have your lunch." I told her again. She stood up and came dangerously near me. I had an option of moving back. But hey, she is mine to enjoy, so I stood on the same spot until her bosoms touched me. Oh I am loving it. "My lunch is here." she pointed at me with her index finger. I am sure she didn''t know what she was talking about. But I love that bold side of hers. I love her taking the lead. I find it sexy. "Oh I am not yours to have, honey." I told her, getting too close to her lips. She is too easy to excite, remember? She closed her eyes when I closed in on her. But woke up from her trance when I said that. "What do you mean? I was talking about my lunch box behind you,SIR." she said. BURN! It hurts. But I couldn''t stop the smile that lit up my face because of her kiddish nature. She smiled too. We both knew this was just a game. What are we doing? No idea. But I am having the greatest fun I have ever had in my 28yrs of life. "Oh really, I thought you pointed at me with your finger. Looks like that''s not your finger that is touching me!" I looked down on her. "You! Bad boy!" She stepped back and turned away. Awe, how cute! Her phone rang. Who is that interruption? Ugh! She looked at me and her phone and had that smug look again. I know who that is. "Hi handsome, So soon!" she spoke. "..." "Oh, That''s so nice of you. I''m honored." "..." "Oh is it, Thank you so much. I am d I could be your plus one." "..." "See you!" Plus one? I know what they have been talking about. I left the room. If she ys this game, I can y it too. At noon, Samantha came to see me. "Excuse me, Sir." "Yes." "Sir, I see Riya is down on my floor. I am already there doing the work. She is not needed there." she said and she was throwing daggers at Shia. She is right. I red at Shia. She averted her gaze to herptop pretending to work. I wanted to tease her. A taste of her own medicine. "Oh yes, dear! I put her on your floor so that you coulde here." I told her. Shia jerked her head from herptop and burned me with her eyes. Wow, cool. "Si...sir!" That girl looked at me unbelievably. Poor her. "Yes, Move your desk to this floor tomorrow." I told her. "Yes, sir!" she said happily and went off with a sexy walk swaying her hips. She didn''t forget to leave a winning smirk to Shia. Oops! Shia caught me looking at her. "Ms.Akshitha, Bring me a hot coffee." I asked her to divert her. "Right away, SIR!" she said and went out to the coffee maker. "Here, sir." She ced the coffee on my table and waited. I took it and sipped it. I spit it straight out in the cup and looked at her in horror. "Samantha is noting here tomorrow. Don''t you dare flirt with others. If I ever see you looking at other girls like you did now, then be prepared to be blind for the rest of your life. I don''t mind marrying a blind man" she said. I am totally loving it. "What the hell you put in this coffee? And when you can look out for a prospective boyfriend, why can¡¯t I look for a girlfriend?" I asked her. "I put water, cream, chocte and salt in a cup and microwaved it. And about a girlfriend, you already have me." she pushed my chair behind and it rolled back. She sat on myp with her legs either side of my thighs. "Shia, Get up!" I told her. This is so not good. "Why?" she asked me. "Because if someone walks in on us, they will think you are sitting on my boner." I told her. she is really giving me one. "Boner na?(what''s a boner?)" She asked me that made my boner really gone and I burst outughing. "Loosu, Endhiri de. Po, poi vya paaru. ( get up. Go, go do your work.)" I pushed her up. "pch!" She went back to her work. I made a note to not ask for coffee from her anymore. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. That was a horrible one. I am d that she put all the edible stuff in that horrible mix. It''s an exhausting yet lovely day. I get to see Shia all day long. Though yful, she is good at her work too. She kept teasing me all day. Did she seed in what she yed for? Yes she did. Wait until I make my move tomorrow. I got home. I saw mom and dad having coffee. They are one adorable couple. They are happy, laughing. It''s a sight to see. "Hey, mom. Hi, dad!" I greeted them. "Hey, Yadu. Come. It''s a very special day today." my mom said. "I can see it. What''s so special today?" "We have a special coffee." She said. Here too? I am not in for another dreadful coffee. "What, our cook tried something new and that turned out so good?" I asked. "No Yadu, we have special news for you over coffee." Dad said. "Wow, What''s that?" "Your aunt''s daughter is here. She hase to Chennai for a month''s trip. We love her. We would be d if you could spend some time with her and get to know her. We are thinking of getting you married to her." my mom said. "What? But dad, you gave me a year for that, remember?" I didn''t expect this. "But this girl is too good to pass. You will love her. She said she wants to go shopping. Go get ready and take her out." My dad said. What the hell!?!? When I was about to refuse it to them, I saw that stupid, glide down the stairs. So she is here. She is my aunt''s daughter? Well of course yes! "Very well. So you are all on her team? Do you have any idea what she did?" I asked them when she neared us. OMG, That look on her face! She is so scared that I will tell on her to my parents! Hahaha she is adorable! "We dont care. She is the one." my mom said. Her reactionpletely changed from scaredy cat to that smug effect almost immediately. I love her. "Shall we go, mama(way to call aunt¡¯s son)." she asked me. God, Why the hell does it sound sexy to me? She is going to be the death of me. "Of Course, Honey!" I mouthed her. We went to the mall and she started shopping for clothes. I just sat at the stool waiting for her to finish. "Mmmme. Tell me how it fits me." She pulled me to the trial room and made me wait outside. She came out in a dress and posed in front of me. FUCK! That dress she was wearing! She is so not going to buy that or wear that to the office. "Shia, Get in now and get changed." "Pch, Mama, I have no good clothes to wear to the office. I like it. Don''t you?" She licked her lips and gave me a sexy look. That''s it! I pushed her in and went in and locked the trial room behind. "This is super sexy. You are not wearing it outside our room. Now if you like it, you buy it. But it will stay with me." I told her. "Am I still a closed chapter?" she asked me, drawing lines on my chest. Wow, Clever girl! I am having fun and I am not giving up on the very first day. She will then tell these tales to our kids mocking me to be weak. I want to put up a fight before epting defeat. "Yes!" I told her and went out. "Asshole!" she shouted from inside. Hahaha! Not so easy honey! Chapter 79: 79. Can She Win Him? Chapter 79: 79. Can She Win Him? Akshu''s PoV This man is putting up a tough y. Maybe he needs to be pushed off his limits just as I nned. The way he pushed me in this dressing room, the way he came close to me. God, he is a delicious man. His eyes roaming almost every inch of my body gave me goosebumps all over me. I felt so hot in that small space. R¨ºAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only I was so stupid to have asked that question. If not for that question, he was on the verge of kissing me. That question woke him up. "I will wait there. Finish your shopping and call me." he said and went to that same stool he was sitting on before. Fuck him. I think keeping my purchase a surprise will do better. That way I can keep him on his heels everyday. But he is not getting off the hook that easily. I paid the bill and collected all my dresses. When we left the shop, I saw Victoria''s secret and stopped right there! ! ! Yadav''s PoV She stopped in front of a underwear shop. That challenge in her eyes is so not good for her. "I need to get something here." she said. Is she fucking kidding me? "I will wait in the car." I said. I am not ying this game with her. "Uh-uh, You are the one that took me shopping. It''s not fair that you bail out at this point." she said, blocking my way. "Shia, you are crossing your limits. I will wait here. Finish it soon ande." "Then agree you lose." she said with a smirk. Oh she has to do better than that. I went in. Gosh it''s so embarrassing. There were onlydies in there. To my fate, there were only 2 or 3. "Hey, I need to look for some bra, to make me feel sexy." she said to a sales girl there. "Your bra you have now is making the passer by just nod. You need something to lift up the spirits. You know what I mean. Something like this. It is superfy and at the same time will give lifts." the sales girl said, showing her an exclusive thing. What does she mean by just a nod by the passer by? Shia is hell sexy. But I would prefer a nod from strangers. I mean just a nod from a passer by is enough! She is mine to enjoy. "So you say if I wear this, the passerby is gonna just stare at it?" she asked her, looking at me. That nerve of this girl! I so wish to tell her I have so many fantasies already nned for that spot. I am not just going to stare at it. "Haha, not just stare, madam." the sales girl said, looking at me. Are they fucking kidding me? I am a full grown man who was deprived of sex for the past 3months. They can''t talk like this to me. This is not fair. "Shia, this is cheating." I told her huskily. "We didn''t set any rules before ying." she said. "Shall I try it on?" she asked the sales girl. "Of Course yes, madam." She pointed to the dressing room. "Um.. do you mind if I take him along to check the fitting?" Shia asked that girl. "For god''s sake Shia, Get them ande." I went out. No, I almost ran out, but still heard the giggles of those two. Akshu''s PoV That was so much fun. I ced all the stuffs in the back seat and sat in the front seat near him. "Do you want to see my purchase?" I asked him. "Amma thaaye, A Vidu. ( Oh god, Leave me alone!)" he said with his hands together above his head. "Hahaha, Now, agree that you don''t have anger anymore." "Uh, No, honey. Not happening." he said. "Cha, Wastnd!" I said loud enough for him to hear. I googled the word ''boner'' and got to know its meaning. Gosh, It is so embarrassing! I tried to seduce him but I know nothing on that topic. "Mama!" I called him. "Mmm" "Mama!" "Enna de? (What?)" "Intha bit-u pada cd enga kedaikum? (Where will we get the B-grade movie cd?)" I asked him! ''Screech!'' He stopped the car with a sudden break and looked at me with horror. OMG, That look on his face. I am so loving it. "What did you ask for?" he asked me unbelievably. "Where will we get the cd of blue film!?" "Loosu, Olunga vaaya mooditu va. Ina eraki vittutu poitey irupen." (Loosu! Shut your stupid mouth. Else I will just go, leaving you here.) He shouted. "Pch, This is not fair, Yash. You won''t teach me. You wont buy me stuffs that will teach me. How will I learn to be your perfect wife?" I asked him, puckering my lips at him. He stared at my lips for more than 10seconds now. "ahem!" I cleared my throat. "Um... You don''t belong with me. so don''t worry about being a perfect wife to me." he said getting back at his asshole self. "Oh, Mmm I guess I need to learn this to be a perfect wife for my husband. It may not be you. But everything will be the same even if it is another man right?" I put up my very innocent face to him. "Unna, Erangu de!" (You, Get down!) He extended his arms and opened my side door. I leaned in a little forward when he took his hand back. His arms brushed me and that sent an electric pulse in every cell of my body. "Mudiyathu! (Nope!)" "Then shut up. One more word, and I am pushing you out." he said. Hahaha, I am totally killing it. We will have a wonderful love life. "Ok Ok, Zip!" I dramatically zipped my mouth. He extended his hand to close the door when I leaned again. "Uh... Don''t you have a hand? Close the door!" he retreated his hand and barked at me. He is afraid of me. He knew if I kept making him touch me, he would lose his control. Reaching home, I went to my room and kept all the stuffs in and came down. We settled down for dinner. Aunty and uncle said they already had. I took a seat near Yash. He looked at me and then again buried his head in his te. Stupid! I am determined to irritate him. I took the salt shaker that was far out of reach to me by putting almost all of me on him. "Shia!" he whisper yelled. Only I could hear him. His voice is so metallic and sexy. I took the salt and ACCIDENTLY dropped it on his te. "Oops, Sorry, mama." I said. "It''s ok, honey!" he said politely. That is so not him!? He bent down to get the lid of the shaker. "Aahhh!" I shouted. That asshole poked my thigh with a fork. "Omg, I am so sorry, honey. It was an ACCIDENT! " he said with a stupid smirk on his face. I kicked his leg under the table. He arrested my leg between his legs. He was wearing shorts. I was in a three forth bottoms. Our bare legs and the skin contact made fire with the friction. I can''t wait any longer. The little touches we have shared since morning have grown a huge fire inside me that needs to be put out. I need him. I am desperate for him. This anxiety kills me. But I am not going to plead with him. He went into his room after a formal goodnight to all of us. I bid a good night to aunty and uncle and went upstairs. I took the room near him. I changed to a white shirt and shorts. I went in his room sneakily and looked for him. I heard sounds in the restroom. Ok, He is in there. I settled myself in his bed warm and cozy in his nket. I switched the lights off. I waited so long before that stupid handsome mane out of the restroom. "What are you doing here?" he asked me standing beside the bed. How the hell did he find that I am in here? "Pch! How did you know?" I asked him. "I am not blind. Now go out." he showed me the door. Huh, Not that easy. "I came so sneakily. Aunty and uncle will never know. Nowe and teach me something that I don''t know." I pulled him on me. "Ugh! Shia! You are being a bad girl. This is so not right. Remember I told you long before that may be I am interested in sex with you? If you stay here a minute longer underneath me giving away your treasures, then I may lose interest in you tomorrow." he said, inhaling me between my breasts. Oh that sends tickles all over my body. "Oh really? Let''s try it on then." I pushed him down and pulled the nket that was covering me. "Fuck! Shia!" he cursed at the sight. I am damn sure that I make him excited just like he makes me. "What? Like what you see?" "Of Course yes! You are a fine woman, with beautiful curves and ups and downs." he said, tracing me up and down with his finger. Shit, it makes my womanhood tingle in anticipation. "Alright, Back to business. Are you ready to teach me what I don''t know?" I asked him stopping my stupid mind from turning in to a jelly in his hands. "I am d to teach you, honey. But you are not ready yet." he told me drawing lines on my lips, gradually lowering his hands to my neck and then to my cleavage making it hard to catch my breath. "Uh-uh, I was talking about this." I stopped his hand and showed him my phone. "I now know what a boner is. Are you having one now?" I saw his pants. "Fuck, Shia. Don''t talk. You are not searching for anything on your phone. Are you? " he asked me, trying to grab my phone. "I found a website. Didn''t see anything yet. I saved it for us to watch together. How about now?" I told him. "For god sake, Go to your room already. Give me your phone. You are not ready yet. You hear me?" he said. I could see his pants made a tent. Haha this is so fun and erotic at the same time. "What if I told you I am ready? I need you, Yash!" I told him. Hell with this game and ego. I desperately need him. "You gotta stop talking like that. Now go out, Shia." he retreated from me. "What the hell is wrong with you? I love you. I am so sorry that I doubted you. I will never do that again, Yash. I need you! I am aching for you! You are doing indescribable things to me. I want to feel you on me. In me! I.." He shushed me by putting his finger on my lips. "Shhhh! This is not the right time. Stop talking. Now be a good girl. Go to your room!" He said, looking me in the eye. I know he is serious. I don''t know why, but I feel like crying. He just doesn''t want me. Hell with this man! Chapter 80: 80. Epilogue Chapter 80: 80. Epilogue Yadav''s PoV She is beingpletely insane. She can''t even imagine what she is doing to me. She is testing my manhood. I was a man who was very active in my sex life until she stepped in! The way she teased me for this whole day until now, is totally out of the world. Everytime she teased me, everytime she brushed herself on me, at the dressing room, at the underwear stores, in the car, during dinner and a little before on my bed. I see her everywhere. I smell of her. She had no idea that I was putting my maximum effort to stay sane and curb my feelings that were all over her. It was the hardest challenge I have ever taken, to restrain myself from pouncing on her! She made it even harder for me by talking dirty and openly asking me to take her. It took immense self control to push her out of my bed. She wants to getid? She had no idea what I could do to her. I wanted to save everything for a special day. She is a precious girl. I don''t believe in ''everything after wedding''. I am not that kinda guy. But I do special things on special asions. Making love to her is the most special thing to me. I want to do it right. But she is making it impossible with her activities.. Pushing aside all the adult things she did, she is so cute. She is so adorable. I love that kid in her. Tomorrow is a special day. It''s an award function facilitated by ''The Truth'' magazine. I am receiving the ''Best Entrepreneur'' award yet again for this year. It is for this function, Gaurav has called Shia to be his plus one. I thought of taking her with me. But dang, she said yes to him. Looks like her punishment has to drag until tomorrow. I slept with a smile thinking about tomorrow. In the morning, I met Shia in the dining room for breakfast. She is so beautiful. "You don''t have to go to the office today. I am going to the factory and other sites. I won''t be needing a secretary there." I told her. "I wille with you wherever you go." she said like a baby. "Listen, honey. I really have some site work. You cane with me tomorrow." I told her. "Pch, Ok, So are we good? You agree you don''t have anger on me?" she asked me. "That is not what we are talking about now." "Tell me now or I am going out with Gaurav tonight." she said with a challenge. Wrong button babe. You have to change your attitude. "I don''t mind. Enjoy yourself. Know what? I wille there too. And my plus one is Janvi." I told her and left before she could pick up a fight. After reaching the factory, I called Gaurav. He is just going to be a chauffeur. So he better know that. "Hey, man." "Hi, Yadav. What a surprise!?" "About your plus one, She is mine. You are not touching her. You are just going to bring her to the party." I said blunt and straight. "Haha, I knew it. I saw it in your eyes. Ok done." he said. "Thanks, Was I that showy?" "Um... Kinda. She gave away a little too." "Haha. We had a fight." "I could see that she was trying to make you feel jealous." "Haha, she did. Alright, Will see you in the evening. We didn''t talk now, Ok!?" "Haha, done!" Ok, All set. I called Janvi and she readily agreed. I carry on with my preparations and it took me almost all day. I didn''t have my lunch and it was already 5pm. It''s time to go home and get ready. The function is at 7pm. When I reached home, it was already 6pm. The traffic in Chennai, Ugh! I ran to my room and had a nice refreshing bath. I came out and took a suit that was tailored for this special asion and got ready. I got out from my home by 6.30 to Janvi''s home and picked her up and reached the venue at 7.20pm. Well,te but not toote. When I got down and Janvi followed me, I heard the camera''s shutter and the shlights made my eyes see white. Janvi held my hand and we made a huge entrance. Shia and Gaurav were already there. I could see her eyes plop out of her socket. She sure is angry. I love it. A little more time baby and it will all be over. Shia was in a beautiful brown floor length skirt and blouse. I couldn''t take my eyes off of her. We settled down and the function started. In a series of awards, they called me on my turn. I got on the stage and epted the award. "Some inspirational words from you, sir!" The hostess gave the mic to me. "Set time and target. Run towards it. Family and love needs your time as well. So you gotta be an expert in time management. Thank you for this award. Now I have to run even faster to sustain it." I got down after the apuse died down. Shia was the one jumping. Her joy lit up my soul. So far my achievements are mine. But now, my achievements are her joy. A meaning to everything! After about an hour, we went for dinner. It was a buffet. Since I didn''t have my lunch, I was so hungry. I went straight to the food. After that, Janvi asked my hands for a dance. I saw Shia. She still refuses to come to me. She didn''t even convey her congrats to me. I took Janvi to the dance floor. All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. We started dancing but my eyes never left Shia. She just finished her dinner and was waiting for Gaurav. Poor her, Gaurav is not going to ask her hand for a dance. Akshu''s PoV Yash never told me he is going to get an award today. Idiot! How dare hee with that Janvi? And all these stupid so called journalists took pictures of them together. Everyone''s eyes were on them. "Oh! They look absolutely adorable!" "Ah! Picture perfect!" "God! Made for each other!" Everyone in the halluded their appearance. I don''t like it. Not one bit. I so wish I could strangle him to death. "Are you alright?" Gaurav asked me. "Yeah, Uh... Yeah, Absolutely!" I said. "Haha, you look like you are angry. I hope it''s not on me." "Oh no. No, Gaurav. I''m fine." "They sure do look awesome together. Lucky him. What do you say?" he asked me. "I don''t know about that. But I think my anger may get to you now." "Oops! What did I do!?" "Just kidding!" I managed to distract him with other topics to talk about. We settled down. That idiot took that Janvi and settled down on the front row. Ugh, If I didn''t say ok to Gaurav, it would have been me sitting along with him. Stupid me! Thought of lighting up his jealous side. But all I got was that burning sensation of jealousy in me. "Now, for the best Entrepreneur award for the year goes to the most handsome man in the house! Mr.Yadav Rishid!" the host girl called on him. She was all lovey-dovey to him. She was literally showing off all her teeth on the stage when Yash got on. Ugh! I hate to have toe here. He went on the stage and the cameras stuttered. The stage was drenched in sh lights! All the women in the audience went aahhh and ooohhh. God damn it! This game got backfired! Only happy thing is, his eyes never left mine. All the while on stage, he looked at me. That beautiful smile and charms, all belong to me. I so wanted to run to him and congratte on his achievement. But Janvi never left his hand! I so wanted to kill them both now. Yash for not asking me out. Janvi for clinging onto his arms. I want to kill myself for my stupidity of saying yes to Gaurav. Alright, Whatever is done is done. Now girl up and finish this damn game. We went for food. Janvi took him to the dance floor and I waited for Gaurav to take me there. I mean, that way, bringing up the possessive side will still work right!? I waited so long for Gaurav to ask me to dance. But that idiot was too good to me. I don''t know why he asked me out in the first ce now. Ugh! Why the hell everything goes wrong today? That Janvi was all over him. Yash is dancing so close to her. His guts, he looks at me and gets too close to her if that was even possible. That''s it! This is so not happening in my presence. "Hey, take your hands off him!" I walked straight up to them and told Janvi with a smile. "Excuse me?" she said. "Gimme a minute, Janvi!" he excused himself from her and came to me. "What the hell do you think you are doing? How dare you take her with you? Why the hell didn''t you tell me that you won an award? How dare you touch her? I will kill you. I nned for something and everything that happens here is something else. You! Idiot!" I blurted out on him. "Shhh, Calm down, honey!" he said with a charming smile. That is when I noticed the whole hall was calm with a pin drop silence. The focus light is on us! What is happening!? "Whatever is happening, is happening because of me. Gaurav didn''t ask you for a dance because I told him that you are mine. Janvi danced with me because I told her that I wanted to wake up the possessive side in you. I didn''t tell you that I am receiving an award tonight because that was a surprise. There is another surprise waiting for you! I waited so long for your burst out. Now that you did what I expected, here, honey!" he went on his knees with a beautiful ring on his hand! OMG! This is really happening! "To like someone, you don''t need reasons or qualities. But to love someone, you gotta feel them in every cell of yours. Very true sweetheart! I feel you in every cell of my body. I love you. Will you be with me even when I lose all my teeth and all my hair turn grey!?" "Say yes! Say yes! Say yes!" the crowd cheered! I looked around to see my mom, Shalu aunty, Aravind uncle, Shiva, Dheeksha, Kavi, Vishwa, Gaurav, Janvi and many others. God is this really happening or am I dreaming? This is too good even to be a dream. "ssss Aahh!" I looked at Yash. "Does it hurt too much? It is not a dream, honey! My knee hurts!" Yash said after a hurtful pinch on my hand. "YES! YES!" I lifted him up. "How did you know that dialog?" I asked him huskily when he put that ring on my finger. "Haha, I was on the call when you said that to your mother. I love you, sweetheart." he said. Wow! What a lovely shback! I am now waiting for Kavya to finish this damn makeup. Yash is waiting for me in our room. Yup, This is our first night! "Pothum de! Vidu!" (Enough de! Leave me!) I told her. She is caking me up and taking too much time. "Yen de avasara padra?"(Why are you in so much haste?) She asked me. "Unaku em nadanthuthu i? Why dying mine?(Everything happened to you right?)" "Thu! Konjamavthu vekka padu de! yatha!" (God, Blush a little! Don''t be so desperate!) "Pode! I have waited so long! Not anymore!" She left me on the doorstep and went away. I went into the room to see the most handsome man ever in his casual wear. God he is a sculpture! "No talking!" he captured my lips as soon as I reached him. His hands started exploring me. Soon we discarded everything that was in our way. The naked us! His hands and tongue and lips started doing magic on me. God I so wished for this! Don''t let me die out of pure pleasure! The End. Chapter 81: Bonus chap Chapter 81: Bonus chap Yadav''s PoV Shia and I are a happily married couple. I have always known that she is a kid. But I never expected her to cry on our first night! Everything started great with us on our first night but she stopped me in between when I tried to go below her waist. "Yash! Yash! Stop!" she held my chin up stopping me from getting to her womanhood. "Why? Are you scared?" "Um.. No! But.." "Don''t worry. I will be gentle." "No, I want to know what happens next." she blurted out. "What? You mean you don''t know what happens next?" God, Why do I feel like I am a pedophile? "Um... I know. Like your sperms get into my ovum. Baby forms. But... uh.. but how will your sperm get to my ovaries in my stomach?" God! A semi naked sexy wife in bed. But she talks about 10th grade biology stuff! "You really don''t know?" I am totally surprised. I lost interest in love making now. All I am interested in now is testing her brain. Has it grown with her as per her age?! I highly doubt it! "Pch, If I have known before, why would I ask now?" she said, pushing herself up with her elbows. Her bouncing boobs are on disy with erect nipples. Gosh! I started fondling it again with my palms and twisting her nipple between my fingers. "Aahhh!" she moaned out. "Does that feel good?" "Yesss! Yes, Don''t stop doing it." she said between her moans. "Does it make you feel something inside?" "Yes, Yes, I feel weird between my legs!" ufff! There she got it right. "Where exactly!?" I dropped my hands from her boobs to her panties. "Yash!" she jerked up and stopped me. "Is it there you feel weird?" "Um... Yes!" she said looking away. A she is so adorable. "Well then, I think that is where I put my ''sperm'' in you." "What? How?" "Let me show you how." I pushed her down on the bed and pulled her underwear down. "Huh! Yash!" she propped up again. "Shhh, Rx honey." "Uh no, You tell me first!" "God, You are torturing me, See, you are he sexy. You are topless and I am already high. Don''t make it hard, Shia. Just rx and enjoy. You will learn on the way." She is testing my patience. "You are angry." she started crying. That is all happened on our first night. Wow! I didn''t even get to see my fully naked wife on our first night. The rest of the night went intopromising her. As it was a long day, we slept in each other''s embrace without even knowing when we slept. Akshu''s PoV The next day of our wedding, we were so busy going here and there. We went to Coonoor. It was a tiring day. Yesterday night was so embarrassing. I decided to watch that porn site a little bit before tonight. I took my phone to the restroom and started watching a clipping. Eww gross. Nope! I cannot see it. I fast forwarded it to see the end. Oops, So this is how it ends!? Alright. Now I know what happens after what we did. But s! We didn''t get a chance to do it. Rahul and Manoj were with him all day and they took him somewhere in the night. I waited for him but fell asleep. Don''t know when he came, I woke up beside him. OK, Poor him. I spoiled it for us on our first night and he spoiled it for us on the second night. We are even now. "Good morning sweetheart!" he said, still closing his eyes. "You are awake? Good morning, Yash!" I kissed his chest. "Mmm I wish to wake up like this forever!" he said, cuddling close to me. "I''m sorry!" I said. "What? Why?" he asked, confused. "For things that happened on our first night." I told him, getting even closer. "Not here, sweety. Everyone out will hear. Don''t tempt me!" he said. "I know what happens next." "Haha how?" he asked me yfully. "I saw a video!" I said, burying my head in his chest. "Hahaha! Good for me. So shall we go to Chennai tonight?" he asked me. "Mmm mmm" I said yes. "God I can''t wait to eat you." he said. "Eat me? I can''t wait, too!" I kissed him. It was a long deep kiss that we were panting when we broke. "Honey, We are already here, I have a very close friend in Coimbatore. He is family too. A rtive to my mother. You know she hails from coimbatore right?" "Mmm hmmm!" I nodded to him. "He couldn''te to our wedding. His wife is pregnant with his second baby. Shall we go meet them?" "Of Course, yes. When should we be ready?" "By 10? He asked me toe to lunch." "Sure, baby!" I kissed him again, still in his embrace. How I feel at home. Thinking about how strangers we were 4 months before. Now I have nothing except him in my universe. We had our breakfast and got ready to meet his friend and his family. Yash is a very gentle man. Though we both felt that pull and attraction towards each other, he restrained himself from even holding my hands in front of people. But I hate this good boy. "Hi, Wee!" Their whole family came to the doorstep to wee us in. "Dei, Congrattions! Finally got your soul mate huh?" a very tall man, who must be his friend, pulled Yash in a bear hug. "Haha, yes, She is Shia. Shia, this is Rishi." Yash introduced me to him. "Hello, Please sit down. This is my dad. My brother Shakthi. And this is my princess Aadya." Shankar introduced his family to me. A that''s an adorable beautiful kid. For sure, a princess! "OMG, She is so cute. How old is she?" I asked him. "She is 2years old. And congrattions, Akshitha! " a very beautiful girl of almost my age, in a saree, came with a tray of juice. She must be his wife! "Hi, Thank you. You are so beautiful!" I told her while taking up the juice from her. "A, thank you so much, beautiful!" She gave me a friendly hug. I like her. "And that''s my queen Anya!" Rishi said, bringing her in his arms. How lovely! "Congrattions, anna! Did my idea work? You haven''t sent me the proposal video yet." She spoke to Yash. What idea? What video? "Haha, it worked, Anya! Sorry I got busy after that." he said, pulling out his phone from his pocket. "Um.. excuse me. What idea?" I asked, looking at both of them. "Haha you don''t know? Anya was the one who gave ideas to Yadav to woo you in. She was the one that told him to take Janvi with him. She gave him the idea of a proposal in the crowd." Rishi told me. "So it''s you who sabotaged my ns?" I asked her yfully. "Oops, Sorry!" she said. Awe she is so cute and little. "Haha just kidding." I said. We became close in a matter of minutes. "Hi, aunty! Where is your baby?" Aadya asked me. "Awe! We were just married, honey. No baby yet." I told her, putting her on myp. "Um... Then I think you don''t love each other enough." she said like a big girl in deep thought. "Oh! Is that so? Why do you think that? " I asked her. It''s so cute seeing her talk. "Because mommy and daddy love too much, I came so soon." she said. "Vaaya moodu de! Maanatha vaangatha! ( Shhh keep quiet! Don''t embarrass us!) Danya stopped her. Everyoneughed. A beautiful mother-daughter duo! "Hahaha, Then I think I should learn something from your mom." I told Aadya. "Yeah, She won''t teach you anything." she said. "Why?" "Because we always fight for daddy. So she will say ¡®don''t get a baby¡¯." she said. OMG I want a baby just like Aadya. "She will talk non-stop for forever. Come let''s go in." Danya took me in with her. "So how was everything?" Danya asked me once we locked the room. "Um...What?" "Pch, Come on. How was your first night? Did you have a good time?" Gosh! Embarrassing! I never expected her to ask me straight away. I mean we just saw each other. "Um..yeah, everything was good." I said awkwardly! "So nothing happened? Poor anna." "How did you know?" I asked, still in shock. "It''s written all over your face." "Pch, Yes, I ruined it. Actually I didn''t know what exactly it was." I told her. "Hahaha, I get it, Don''t worry. I will help you." she said and unfolded some tricks of her to me. God she is an expert. "Thank you, Danya. You are a lifesaver!" "Haha anytime, babe." We had a good lunch and spent some more time there with them. While leaving, Danya came with a pouch. "Anna, Here is our wedding gift to the lovely couple." She gave it to Yash. "What is it? Why, Anya?" He declined but she stuffed that pouch in his hands. He opened it to see a key. "What is it?" he asked her. "This is the key to our guesthouse in Thenamanallur. We have everything arranged for you guys for a two days stay. There is no inte or tower or tv. It is a lovely little house in the midst of coconut trees. You will love it!" she said. "But Anya, we have some ns, dear. Mom will be waiting..." "Uh, I took care of everything, da. I spoke to aunty. Anya spoke to Akshitha''s mom too. You are free for 2days. Just you and Akshitha." Rishi said. Rishi, though he had Aadya on him all the time, he never left any chance to hold Danya¡¯s hands or her shoulders. He addressed her ''Baby'' everytime he called her. Their love is just amazing and very showy. I mean if we just look at them, we will know they are madly deeply in love with each other. No word spoken! I wish me and Yash would be just the same.
