Shravya pov,
I closed my eyes and leaned on the chair. As I closed my eyes, my gloomy life seemed to be even more gloomy. I have everything in my life except happiness. I can own everything I desire except my husband heart. I never thought to marry him forcibly. I know that we can't force someone to love us. But he thinks I maneuvered and married him. What he thinks is not true.
I have tried many times in the first year of our married life to tell him the justice that is on my side, but every time he would walk away regardless of it. What can I say to someone who thinks it's disgusting to talk to me !!.. Realizing that he won't believe no matter whatever I was say, I stopped explaining my reasoning to him. I always wished to see him happy, but I never thought I would become the tragedy to his life.
Memories of my past came before me that I confessed to my father I would marry any man whoever my father show after knowing that ratan wouldn't be happy if he marries me.
Flashback:
“Sweetheart. Listen dear. Tomorrow, I will take you to office with me. Just this morning, you came here. You will be tired from traveling. So take rest.”
Two years ago, After completing engineering, I went to london to do my MBA at the age of 21. Last week, my MBA courses completed. Therefore, this morning I reached chennai. Currently, I'm pleading my father to take me to his company with him. I know my father will agree with me after seeing my puppy eyes. It's the benefit of raising by a single father. My mother passed away in the accident when I was studying 10th standard. Those were the most anxious days for me and my father. Later slowly we start moved on our life from loss of my mother, after realizing we both have each other only in this life to share our happiness or sorrow. My father raised me without any shortcomings and protectively that I should not miss my mother in any way. He was not only being my father but also my mother, friend, mood booster, mentor etc. I have not hidden anything from him and have shared everything. There is no secret between us. We are like buddies.
My thoughts break away as my father got up from the sofa. I hold my father shirt sleeve and looked at my father with puppy eyes and said in low voice,
“Please Appa. I'm coming. Take me with you. I would feel tedious if I was alone at home. I took enough rest in flight itself. Appa, you know na !!.. I hate loneliness. Pretty please appa.”
My father looked at me with wistful smile and smear my hair lovingly and told me,
“Come. Let's go.”
“Yayaa!!.. Thank you, appa.” I exclaimed and jumped in happiness and kissed my father cheek and ran out of the house and got into the car and waved my hand to my father as the way to call my father come soon. My father smiled cheekily and got into the car and told driver uncle to start the car.
When our car reached the company, my father got out of the car and walked into the company with ramesh uncle who is my father best friend as well as his P.A.
“Appa. Wait for me.” I shouted and got out of the car hurriedly and ran towards my father. But unexpectedly my right foot slipped due to high heels footwear. I closed my eyes in fear and get to ready to get impact of falling down. Instead of feeling pain, I felt a hand on my waist and my nostril filled with masculine rosewood fragrance. I saw deep brown eyes as I opened my eyes. Why was my heart playing drum sound suddenly??.. Why does it feel like a butterfly flapping in my stomach??. This is how feel when love happens at first sight. Shravya, You are in love. Wow, I'm in love with someone who I met a few seconds ago. My heart blabbering me constantly that he is mine. I felt secured in his arms after my father.
He said something to me after he made me stand, but I did not hear anything he said because I was engaged in admiring him. Everything showing his extreme manliness. His brown eyes, his flat eyebrows, his thick black mustache, his oval shape face and his well toned body. He is one who has to work as a model. But what he is doing in our company !!.. It was a good thing he came to our company. How could I have met him if he had not come to our company !!.. My thoughts pushed away by my father worried voice,
“Sweetheart. Are you okay ??. Have you got injured anywhere ??”
I nodded blissfully and replied to my father in jovial tone,
“Appa, I'm perfectly fine. This hero caught me at the right time, so I did not get any injuries. And he looks like a hero. Much handsome. My hero.”
I pointed my hands towards him and whispered last few sentences and looked at him idolizing who is standing little away from me. My father patted his shoulder and told him,
“Oh.. You !!.. My boy.. Thank you for saving my daughter. I couldn't bear it, even if she was slightly injured. She is my heart… After the death of my wife, I am still alive just for her. She still behaves like a child. Sometimes she is a little clumsy and adamant daughter. By the way, young man, How are you ??. Do you like working here ??..
“ I'm fine, sir. Thank you for asking. Working here gives me a joy that feels like my dream has come true. And please don't say thank you to me. Because of your generosity, I'm working here. It's my duty to protect you and your family members. It was the least I could do.” he replied my father in a humble tone.
“ Young man. I am so glad to know that it makes you happy to work here. Don't repeat those word's generosity at all. Everyone is equal to me. And you got the job here because of your talent and hard work. Keep it up, my man. Don't lower yourself for anyone.” My father told him with a smile.
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Shravya pov,Uff!!.. Does my father have no knowledge ??. I was standing next to him, but he didn’t seem to be thinking of introducing me to my hero. I poked my father elbow using mine and indicated him to introduce me to my hero.“Uhm!!.. I forgot to introduce my daughter to you. Meet my one and only daughter, Shravya keerthi. And sweetheart, the one who saved you just before is Aadhish Ratan. He is working in our company as a head of security department. As far as I know, he is an honest and hard-working man. Not only that, he is such a gentleman." my father told me proudly about him.I nodded and looked at him with an awe-struck expression. He perceived by my soul pulling glance and looked back at me. I smiled sheepishly and extend my hand to handshake with my hero and told and asked him meekly,“Hello, Mr. Aadhish ratan. Nice to meet you. I'm looking forward to meet you often. I hope you don't mind it. Hmm!!!.. And!!.. Ratan means precious stone. Am I Right ??”He addressed me bac
Shravya pov,I have been walking around my room for the past hour in the nervousness. It has been a one and a half month since I met ratan. The last one and a half month have been the most happiest days of my life. For the past one and a half month, somehow I managed to get my father’s consent and went to our company with my father to see my ratan. My only job after going to the company is to descry my ratan without anyone knowing. It wasn’t an easy job, but somehow I descryed him still now without anyone knowing. I would love to see him again and again, no matter how much time I sight him.My ratan.. There is no limit to the exultation that arises in my heart when I pronounce him as my ratan. I love him. I love his plucky yet placid voice. I love his polite smile. I love his succour and kind nature. I love his respectful deportment. Seeing the way he treats everyone equally made my heart more addicted to him. Even though I love every inch of him, still I don’t like him talking to oth
Shravya pov,My father looked at me with woeful expression and wiped my tears and kissed my forehead and told me in sad tone,“ Stop crying, sweetheart. I could not see you like this. If you want, then I'm ready to ask him to marry you countless time. Even I'm ready to make him marry you forcibly for your happiness. I will do anything for you, sweetheart. But !!.. Can you be happy with him by marring him forcibly ??. Even if you get happiness by marrying him forcibly. How many days you will get that happiness from the person who doesn't love you !!. What will happen after that !!.”As my father was speaking, I stared at my father blankly. I have no answer to the question my father asked. What my father said is true. However, the thought that, after our marriage, ratan might fall in love with me struck on my mind. But, My father's next sentence scattered that thought and pushed it out of my mind completely.“Sweetheart.. Do you know what true love is ??. True love is when we find raptu
Shravya pov, "How many times have I told you that you do not have to knock to get into my office ??. By the way, I love to call you kannu. Kannuuuu.." While I was talking, he came and sat on the chair which is placed in front of my desk. When I had finished speaking, he said in a playful tone with a teasing smile, "Okay fattyyyyy." I got irritated when I heard his teasing words. So, I glared at him more angrily and turned the other side. After a few seconds, I heard his voice, "Oh!!.. Come on shravya. Don't be like this. I called you that because you called me by my nickname. Don't take it seriously, ya. Oye!!.. Look me ya." I just sat simply without saying anything while looking at the other side regardless of his words. Realizing that I was really angry with him. He told me again in pleading tone, "Okay. I'm wrong. I shouldn't have called you with that nickname. I know I have hurted you. I'm sorry. I will not call you with that nickname, even if you call me kannu for a thousan
Shravya pov, After gathering my emotions under the control, I left the elevator and got into the back seat of the car. After a few minutes, Kannan got into the car through the driver seat and looked at me through the rearview mirror with a worried expression. I looked back at him for a second and then turned my face to the other side with a tight face. The car is passing the city in high speed under the clutch of kannan, and I'm looking outside scenery through glass window of the car. A kind of tension was prevailing between us. When the car reached the same dilapidated house which kannan mentioned earlier, I got out of the car and opened the gate of the house. I looked up the house with a smile. According to kannan, it was a dilapidated house. For me, it's my sweet home. I knew for sure that the comfortness and peace which I got from this house will not be get in any expensive mansion. I have no words to describe the feeling I get when I reach this house after finishing all the work
Shravya pov,The vibration which I felt near me disturbed my sleep. I opened my eyes and sat up on the bed lazily and looked at sleeping ratan with a smile. His face shinning brightly at the brightness of the lamp on the bed. Again, the vibration of the cell phone pulled away my glance from him to the phone. I picked up my vibrating mobile from the bed and turned off the alarm.Every night I would set an alarm in vibrate mode to wake up at next day morning 4.30, so that the sound of the alarm would not disturb his sleep, and also he shouldn't know the things which I'm doing for him. If he knew I was the one who is cooking and doing household chores, then he would not allow me to do it as well. He thinks it is his mother who cooks and doing household chores. I also do not try to change his assumption because I know very well that this little happiness will be taken away from me on the day when I try to change his assumption.After seeing him once more with a sigh, I got out of bed and
Shravya pov,“Don't come near to me”After saying it, again he began to smack his hand on the wall. His each smack on the wall hurted me like I was the one who receiving it. I fell down on the floor and cried while covering my mouth without knowing how to stop him. I sobbed and told him with whimper,“Please..ratan.. Don't..hurt..yourself.. If you..don't like..those things.. then..I will..send it ..back.. For that,.. Please..don't..hurt..yourself.. I can't..see you..like this.. Please ratan.”As soon as he heard what I said, he starts to smack more vigorously and told me in firm tone,“ I will not stop hurting myself until you do what you said now.”After hearing his words, I got up from the floor quickly and ran out of the room like a mad woman while shouting those words,“ I will send it back right now. Please don't hurt yourself.”I came out of the house and went to shop workers who are waiting to shift the things into the house and told them while wiping the tears,“Please take th
Shravya pov,Instantly, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep when I heard the sound of the bathroom door opening. Normally, he would have been murmuring something as he gets ready to go to office, but today I could not hear any of his murmuring voice, so I opened my eye halfly and searched him through my squint eye. I saw him standing near my bed and looking at me without even blinking his eyes. I closed my eyes again at the shock of seeing him.What is he thinking so deeply without even noticing that I opened my eyes !!. Why he stared at my face without even blinking his eyes !!. Is there something on my face !!. or.. Did he find out I was pretending to be asleep !!. Shit !!. What I'm going to do now !!.All of a sudden, the bed dipped a little like someone is sitting near me. Not only that, I also felt something is brushing against my both hands and my snout overflowed with his mint cleanser aroma. What's happening here !!. Why do I feel like he is near me !!. My thought drag
