Part 3Ananya's POV
Working
hard till late in the night, we were surprised to see that even our
mind works in the same direction. His marked out points were exactly
what I had pointed out.
Somewhere, it made me feel connected to him. Was that a sign from the above One? I wondered.
But as much as I was happy, my day came to a saddened end.
Where
after coming out from his cabin, I was getting excited for our trip
home, how he will ask me to drop off, I was disappointed when Malvika
asked him.
"Kabir, Are we still up for dinner?" And that put a bucket of cold water over all my excitement and wishes.
"Yes..." He replied with a flirtatious smile that instantly made me feel a pinch in the heart.
But then, he looked at me and his eyes were saying a complete different tale than his smiling lips.
"Ms Kashyap, my driver is outside...he will drop you home" He told me, making me feel bruised.
But then, I am just as much egoistic as him and knew, what I should do.
"Dont
worry sir...Ronnie will drop me off as always...You don't have to worry
about it" My voice held a challenge. And if that flaring nose was any
indication, I knew I had hit the right spot.
"All
settled then..." His chewed tone was hard to miss and made me smirk.
Putting forward his hand infront, he caught hold of Malvika's finger who
rather smoothly made them slip in his palm. Letting each inch of her
finger explore his skin.
Smiling, he pulled her close and putting his hand behind her waist lead her out in a rather gentleman way.
"Such a flirt" Ronnie said approaching me and I couldn't do anything but agree infront of him.
Dishearteningly.
Is he so unaware?
Kabir POV
For a moment, I was as excited to drop her back home as she was to go with me.
My Silly Silly heart. It was running as if competing in a marathon.
I
would have loved to get a chance with her to feel the silence, the
peace in it, just the way I was l used to feel alone. Al through.
On
second thoughts, would she have allowed that silence to prevail in
between us?. I doubtm Considering the chatterbox that she is.
Anyways, I was so about to ask her to drop off.
But then Malvika came and reminded me of the dinner I have promised.her.
For
a moment, I thought to make an excuse. For a moment, I wanted to let go
of my guards but then, she was KL's daughter. I have to keep her happy.
Besides, she was too sharp to notice my reasons and back paying me for
it.
I had offered Ananya to go back home with my driver. I had to
think of her safety. But than the minx that she was, she played smartly
saying that Ronnie will drop her off.
Like the hell I will want it.
But then two can play the game. And I challenged her back by putting forward my hand infront for Malvika.
The
look on Ananya's face when I pulled Malvika close was a heart breaking
one. I Know, I was the culprit of her pain but then I couldn't help.
Teasing her was such a fun.
Going out, I look back just to assure her but then one look back and seeing Ronnie putting his hand around her, had me burned..
Was I really thinking that she would understand me?
I was literally turning on fire.
"Kabir...Let's
go" Malvika voiced seeing me standing still at the doorstep. "Hmm..."
Glaring back, I hummed before moving my restricted steps matching to
hers.
You deserve a payback Ms. Kashyap. I promised myself and I am adamant on my words.
Right
from that day, I have been literally flirting with with the women
around just to see her burn. The look as much as pains me, gives me a
peace too. The power to see in burning in the same aggression as I am.
She was getting a pill for her own challenges. Her own actions. A bitter pill.
I
have rejected few of her stories, started to work more with Richa and
Trisha avoiding her as much as possible yet keeping an eye on her.
My eyes just cant get away from her self.
But that stupid, equally likes to ignite me, burn me to ashes. We haven't talked previously anything about work yet she seems to know me so better.
She knew my buttons and that what she was pressing.
Just to made me suffer, she paired up herself with Manav.
Ananya's POV.
This game of blame and jealousy was fun for few days but then, it started to get so much on my nerves.
I couldn't get a peaceful sleep. I could not take a relaxing breathe just thinking of him with other girls.
His each act of ignorance was breaking me inside.
Ronnie inquired, Richa Trisha asked me about my change of behavior but I couldn't share it. Somewhere, his preference of my friends over me was making me get away from them.
His eyes would follow me but the when I will look back, he would act as my presence was the least noticed.
I was attracted to him. He was a hero, mentor and role model but then now, the equation between us has changed.
He was now attached to my heart. He was turning more than an infatuation.
Love.
That's what I had started to feel for him.
But seems like, this wasn't what he feels and its not something I can live with.
Sighing, I opened a job hiring site and started to apply for different newspaper even if its for a minor to minor job.
Leaving him will be hard but staying here and feeling his constant ignorance was a pain, I was so not ready to bear.
Next one will be the last part of this OS.
Thank you for liking this journey till now.
Take care...Hugs
