Chapter 16: Chapter 16
Other's pov:
"That is for you to find and for me to know"
She is confused. Who wouldn't be?
She is confused what to name this relationship as?.
They are married but strangers. They are not ready for this commitment but here they are finding warmth in each other arms.
Anvitha was disorientated. She couldn't understand the motive of the man who is standing in front of her gazing at her like his world revolve around her only she knows that is not going to happen very soon.
She can feel they are still not in liking phase. Like everyone told arrange marraige is like that as the time goes they would grow liking each other if lucky they would love each other. Her brain had never showed interest in love but when the marraige topic raised she wanted to feel how it would be loved. She had got like from other's which held different relationship but as she read in novel the love between couples is bliss and she wanted to experience it, explore it, enjoy it, cherish it. She is scared to lose her heart and fall in love. With love comes the problem with problem comes the heart brake with heart break someone can loose themself. She hate that.
Will he love me? a voice from back of her mind pulled her to reality find the answer herself. She sighed bending her head not able to guess it. She never ask for luxury, money, power but she expect love, care and support. Will he be able to give me that? She knows anything can be bought but not love and care. It has to be earned. Will she be able to? Will he show his love for what she? Will he accept her status? That was the big question. As far as she learnt with the experience had withhim she is cent percent sure he would never accept her as his. All matters to him is his fame, image, reputation and standards.
Then , why did he marry me?
She felt light touch on her forehead. It was so pure and soothing and full of emotions than the kiss on her lips. She raised her head to meet his black eyes and she regretted doing it which held assurance.
Can she believe him ? Can she give her heart to him without worrying about pros and cons. She is scared to givr her already lost heart to him. Yes, She can feel few bits of her heart betraying her badly and is now moved to his but she is unaware whether he had it or not. She had given but not sure he had secured it in his heart. This is what she hate and hated. She never want to fall in love when there no hope she would be reciprocated with the same passion and intensity.
Her thought came into abrupt halt when hand looped over her arm gently. She looked at her right to find sagar looking at her already. She can read anyone like a open book but the person beside her is making it difficult for her to find what is running in back of his mind and she is irritated by that. She didn't show it in her face. She held a small smile to hide her inner turmoil.
As the day passed his craziness for her didn't stop. He was gobsmacked by her beauty. He had never complemented anyone and he tried but it back fired. He was shocked with her reply. He never thought she would talk back but in polite way. It was quite amusing. He never met with people who is polite at the same time up to the point. Her way of dealing the problem was quite intriguing. He had this strange feeling in his heart and it increased day by day. When he saw her in the mantap he was proud that he choose her as his wife. She carried everything with grace and carried herself calmly. Once he tied the knot his craziness turned to worry. He wanted to marry her and claim her.
He is done with it and what next?
He doesn't fancy people entering his space.
He had lived his life alone while his parants were busy with building the company and charity while he was busy learning new things like guitar,flute, football , painting. He never complain about that as he had never missed anything in his life. He dispersed the idea of sharing life with other but it is too late to realise. He had already married and he cannot turn back.
can he? Will he?
The little speech he gave about her. It came out of his heart. It was genuine he couldn't control himself when media people spoke ill about his WIFE..They had forgoten who they were talking about and he don't mind reminding them. He thought to handle later but as for now his full concentration on the shaking bird right beside him. He could see her nervousness and trying to cover it with smile.
Her sweet smile is simply turn on for him. He had restrained himself kissing her from so long. He couldn't still take down her dance from his mind. He had never imagined her to be that bold. He just wanted to get reaction from her when they sat quitely in mehendi ceremony which quite irked him. He always preferred to be left alone if there is nothing has to do with business but sitting beside her idly was pure torture. He thought of just making her jealous just by fake cheer her but it turned out pretty hot. Her nervousness when my heated gaze met her boosed his male ego that he affect her. He couldn't believe himself that he did involved in stupid act to just get a reaction from her but it was worth everything including paying few bucks to the media and girls who witnessed and men who were dragged out of the venue. His heart was partially killed after that day. His mind and heart was filled with her and only his body was left. She wouldn't leave his mind but her thoughts increased as the seconds ticked to minute, minutes ticked to hours. When he saw her in the red gown with bold red lipstick he lost his self control and kissed her taking oppertunity as to prove media that they love eachother. Her lips felt soft and tasted sweet against his lips. He had to restrain himself by putting all the energy not to deepen the kiss as he realised it was her first by her stiff posture against his. He felt proud to be her first and he didn't hide it instead smiled brightly looking at her. She looked nervous and confused. He didn't wanted to give hope so he had to half lie to her about kiss. Her face dropped hearing his reply. He felt so stupid to open his big mouth instead he could have dogged the question.
He was quite taken back when she didn't waver to ask the reason for him marrying her. He was astonished at her bravery.
He told truth. He was confused and he wanted to find it.
He didn't hide it from her. Give hope and later breaking her pure heart is never in his mind to do.
She is so innocent and he is already guilty for marring her not knowing what do they share between themself.
Her big eye held so many question and she was retrieving away from asking. In that moment she looked so adorable. He couldn't contain himself as he dropped a small kiss on her forehead. It is promise from his side to her to find the answer to all her question together.
He gently pulled her with him indicating her to walk beside him. As soon as they stepped inside she stopped in her track.
Everyone gasped looking at the beauty walking but she gasped looking at the surrounding. Her big brow eyes which were enlighten with khol is now shining like gold. With each passing second Her red soft lips turned upward sketching into beautiful smile which reached her eyes. Sagar couldn't contain himself from admiring her. People here would think of him like a love stick teenager but he cared less. She was busy admiring the surrounding with twinkle eyes and he was busy admiring the beauty beside him.
The decor look exquisite and she looked at the pool of people. Some admired her beauty, some cursed her, some looked jelousy, some looked genuinely happy. She sent a greatfull smile to everyone as a token for attending the function.
She was made to stand beside sagar and guest started arriving to the venue. Everyone congratulate to their new beginning snorting at her, smiling at sagar.
Paranoid....
Her face fell but she cannot show it out as she didn't want to show that their indifference behaviour affects her. It is better to neglect and she did it.
Soon Sagar started to introduce her to his relatives cum partner. He held her waist all along not bothering her squirming around his arms. He had got trophy wife and he wanted to show it to everyone and make aware that no one mess up with her. This act of him triggered worst. The girls who had crush on him was seething with anger and they waiting for Anvitha to be left alone so they could execute their plan. As a boon to their request Anvitha got to the place where she instantly got attracted as she felt suffocate and her cheek started paining smiling all the time that too fake.
Anvitha sat on the bench where all color of rose flower plant were surrounded her. Her eye caught this place as soon as she stepped inside the venue. She wanted to come here and enjoy the fresh air with fragrance of rose peacefully. She somehow escape from those materialistic people who only talked about their dress, ornaments, footwear. She had enough and she wanted escape and here she is.
The 5 letter word PEACE can't be obtained in this Janma.
Few girl of her age probably younger than her walked to where she was sitting. They looked like model with slim waist and toned arms and legs wider hip and not to mention beautiful face which held menace. She frowned inwardly as their gaze held her small self. They looked nothing but synonyms of dangerous. Anvitha didn't want to be rude to judge them without knowing so she smiled at them but was greeted with scowl.
One girl who looked like leader of that gang looked at the other girls exchanging something among them.
Anvitha sat stiff alarmed. Next scene unfolded shocked to her core.
