*Nitish Pov*
I groaned with the way it feels like someone is hitting my head without pausing for a second and opened my eyes only to close them again not able to keep them open.
However, hearing a doorbell, I tried my best to open them and looked around before remembering that I am in Shrishti's hotel room.
Shrishti! God! I thought covering my face but shifted my hands to check the time and give a call to grandma before facing what happened yesterday.
"I talked to Grandma a few minutes back. She is having her

*Shrishti Pov*'What is this?' is the only thought running through my mind after seeing the lines on the file that is present before my eyes.Is this some kind of prank? I thought by turning the pages and found that it has an official seal at the end of it.Contract marriage? I frowned letting the pages fall back in its place but my hand froze looking at the words in the middle of these pages.I... I... my hands started shaking looking at those words and I gasped before leaving the file alone and stood up in shock.I stared at that file in a daze before sitting down and opened it again to read the words while

*Shrishti Pov*After the weekend, I messaged Prathap asking whether Anny forgave him or not but his response was negative and mentioned that she is staying at Vikranth's house.I closed my eyes leaning back and opened them to stare at the contract I don't want to choose. I don't want to do the contracts involved in me working for someone else and also where I need to be involved with business people.However, these two days I have gone mad while thinking about so many things. From Vikranth's contract to my past behavior with Kanika to the mess that happened to Anny because of my phone call.I don't know whether I can control my thoughts by myself without shari

*Shrishti Pov*“I will take my leave then. I note down everything that I could which will help with the last day of the event.” I said passing the file in my hands while he frowned looking at me.“We will be congratulating everyone who made this whole event possible. Why are you going at this point after doing the work?” he asked but I shook my head.Do I want the recognition? Of course! But will I be happy to stay for an extra day and something happens in the meantime? No!I already have enough regrets and I don’t want to add anything to it. And hearing his voice yesterday night… I am scared right now and can’t feel relief unless I go and meet Grandma.Adding to that, he is my friend and he called me in need. If I don’t go, how can I be a good friend? I sighed turning around to leave but called Jenny asking her to manage the company for a few more days.“H

*Shrishti Pov*“Go back to the hotel, Nitish. I will be here.” He frowned hearing those words from his Dad.It’s been a week since I came here and after he tried to ask his Dad to come here every day, he is finally here but brought press with him.I know I shouldn’t get caught with the media as GH will be involved unnecessarily and I have to give this huge explanation that I am just his friend and not at all related through business.I didn’t expect that his Dad is in politics and right now running for an MLA and is already a mayor for Mumbai until the last term.Nitish never talked about his family or even about his friends clearly except for a few incidents. The moment he called Nitish informing them that he is coming, I walked out of the hospital room to give them space.It is a good thing as I didn’t expect him to bring the media with him. I shook my head already knowing

*Shrishti Pov*“So, what do you think?” I asked glancing at Jenny while she looked around the office before nodding at me.“We need to hire staff and also decide who will handle this branch first and later decide on adjusting our works.” I added and she smiled but didn’t say anything.“What is it?” I frowned looking at her.“I just… all this time I was talking on how I can manage and you can rest but last month when you were away for a few weeks, I realized that I need time to actually handle everything.” I didn’t say anything hearing those words.Even I didn’t expect that I will take that long to return to Mumbai but found that I can’t take a rest anymore seeing the work pending and finally after a few weeks, we both managed to come to this city so that she can check out the new place.“Why don’t we continu

*Nitish Pov*“You are actually going to meet her?” I frowned leaning back hearing the doubt in his tone.“Yes! Didn’t I already message your secretary? If you are going to be suspicious then why did you even gave me this threat?” I asked back and he stayed silent hearing that.“This is the last way I thought of after you rejected all those proposals. If not for your uncle’s idea I wouldn’t even think of getting close to the people who harmed your business.” He commented while I rolled my eyes.“They didn’t target me to harm me. It was a fault from our side. I can’t tell you the details but the fault began from my side.” I explained again but he is not accepting those words.“Anyway, you will be backing off, right? I am going to get to know her and you need to not threaten me saying you will also take your investment away.” I adde

*Shrishti Pov*“Why are you smiling at me like that?” I asked frowning at her while she just smiled before glancing at the couch.“I heard you changed the couch yesterday. Why?” she asked turning back while I ignored her stare.Well, he had a good sleep but it looked uncomfortable and I can rest sometimes if I change it into a comfortable one, right?“It’s okay! No need to tell me but should I keep in mind to send everyone home on time and not stay back to do overtime?” I covered my face with the file while shouting.“He is just my friend. And that… the previous one was uncomfortable. He is not going to come here every day.” I pointed out removing the file from my face.“Oh! I thought coming every day for a whole week means coming here every day in the future too.” With that, she turned to leave while I shouted her name.“Just

*Shrishti Pov*What was I thinking? I was not thinking straight for sure. How could I just kiss him like that? At least we stopped before going all the way.But what should I do about him sleeping behind me and us both adjusting on this couch? This is a fine couch for a single person to sleep but not two.His confession shocked me and made me waver as these few weeks I was kind of disturbed with his flirting already and started repeating to myself that he is my friend.Now, his final words just made my grip lose and I actually accepted it. How can I just do it? What if we just realize we are not suitable and ruin our friendship?I am going to lose another friend? I closed my eyes shaking my head and froze when he pulled me closer to his body with his arm around my waist.I know how hard was it to stop us from taking the next step and he even didn’t force me but still if I had ignored my mind then…
