Nikhil's eyes lighted up as soon as he saw his grandma standing at the door. Shakuntala came and sat on the bed and when patted her lap, Nikhil like a three-year-old kept his head on her lap. She started caressing his hair lovingly. Nikhil for a while forgot all the mishappenings of his life and closed his eyes enjoying his grandmother's love.
Shakuntala was waiting for him to speak up.
"Grandma." Nikhil broke the silence that was spread into the room for the last ten minutes just like she had anticipated.
"Yes, Nikky," Shakuntala called him from the nickname he never allowed anyone to call him except her.
"Everything is changed," he said. His dejected voice made Shankuntala uneasy.
"Hmmm."
"I am scared."
"Hmmm."
"And worried too."
"Hmmm." Irritated of his grandma's monotonous redundant answers he got up from her lap and sat in front of her. Looking sadly at her he asked, "Wha

Anvi************The lunch was prepared by aunty. I wanted to help but she denied saying I am a new member and she won't allow her daughter to cook anytime soon. Not even in my own house, I was treated like this by my mother. Everyone gathered for lunch on the dining table even Nikhil. He was behaving normal, very normal, and had startled uncle and aunty with his presence but Nirvana and grandma were fine with it as if they knew he will come.Aunty had prepared a lot of dishes and most of them were my favourite. I was shocked to see Nikhil's appetite. I didn't realize that I was staring at him until he looked at me raising his eyebrows making me avert my gaze."Why are you all looking at me like that?" Nikhil asked as not only me, everyone else was quite stunned on the quantity of food he had filled his plate with."Nothing, you don't eat this much generally," Uncle replied."Dad, I am famished. I haven't eaten anything sin

Nikhil**********Sometimes your luck is so bad that all the mishappenings happen with you only. Right now I am the target of sheer bad luck.I was about to sleep when my phone rang and since it was from my assistant I had to pick it up. I was informed that things were going down the hill in my absence in London. I have lost the recent deal that I was striving to have from the last month. Only if I would have paid a little more attention.I went out to talk with Russell my assistant and listening to all that happened I got angry, not on him but myself. Already things were not going well in my personal life and now because of my stupidity and carelessness, I lost the deal as well. I had to hold some meetings with the clients and since I forgot they thought I wasn't interested and handed over the deal to someone else.Russell was trying to calm me down but I couldn't because of my failure. Failure is not bad, in fact, it only teaches

Anvi******As soon as we reached home I went straight inside my room without even sparing a glance at Nikhil. I didn't want him to witness my state as I was not ready for the questions he might ask.I changed my clothes, went into the shower, and stood under the cold water for a while. I wanted to calm myself. The revelations had shaken the ground within me, had distorted my already disrupted peace.Why did Mom do that? Why?My head was throbbing in pain and even crying in the shower didn't help. After a few minutes when I thought I might catch a cold if I stay longer in the shower I got out and changed into my nightwears. My hair was still wet and I didn't let it dry.I sat into the balcony and let the cool breeze show it's affects on my hairs and as well as on me."Anvi" I heard Nikhil.Oh Shit! I ignored him and he was here to check up on me. I was just hoping he wouldn't ask me anything about what happened

Anvi************"Nikky, if I get any complaints from her, I will beat you with my new Prada heels." Grandma scolded Nikhil, making everyone chuckle instead of Nikhil Arora, who gulped in fear hearing her."This moment needs to be recorded," said Nirvana before taking out his camera and making the video of the scared form of my husband while grandma was giving him instructions on how to treat me."Shanku, enough. It's my turn now," said Dad. I had thought he will hug him and say some words of affection. Like I had anticipated he did the same but with me and to Nikhil he gave strict instructions regarding me."Di, are you sure you were born in our house?" Arpit questioned."Why?""Because I feel you have always been an Arora." I agreed to Arpit as they all love me like their own. Everyone was sad not because their son was leaving them but because their newly found daughter was leaving. I felt bad for Nikhil and decide

Anvi******Till I reached Nikhil's house, I was exhausted. My mind was drained of energy as even if I didn't want to, it kept thinking about what happened at the airport in India.To my relief, I hadn't had to share a room with Nikhil. Neither of us was at that stage of our relationship where we would live in the same room. It might take months or maybe years for us to reach that level. I had no idea whether we would be able to work on our relationship or not.I didn't want to strain my brain which was already tired and decided to sleep peacefully in the room adjacent to Nikhil's. I wasn't hungry so I denied Nikhil's offer of dinner.Since I never slept in an all darkroom I didn't switch off the bedside table lamp before sleeping.Tiredness took over me and I slept when my head hit the pillow.**************Nikhil**************A lot was going on inside my head and I wasn't able to comprehend how to deal with t

Anvi******"Why does he own such a big house, Di?" I questioned Mrs.Chetna whom I have started to call Di as she was older than me while sipping the luscious hot coffee prepared by her."He is planning to bring all his family here in London itself," she replied, taking a seat beside me in the garden of the house."That's very thoughtful of him. Otherwise, I have seen people who don't care about their family once they stand on their feet." That was a fact that I stated. Nikhil did have great thinking."Nikhil is different. He thinks of his family's needs before he thinks of himself."Chetna Di had a proud smile as well as admiration in her eyes for Nikhil. He indeed was someone intriguing that I was thriving to know more about him.I was enjoying the hot coffee thinking whether to ask Chetna Di if she had switched off the lights of my room last night when I heard her calling me, "Anvi.""Hmmm.""Last night Nikhil told me

Anvi******"Hi." My heart jumped out of my chest but when I saw the familiar face I took a breath of relief."What happened?" Nikhil asked and took a seat in front of me. His eyes were filled with concern"Nothing, you scared me," I replied by placing a hand on my heart to calm my accelerated heartbeat."Weren't you expecting me here?""Why would I?" I asked not getting what he meant."Damn! That hurts," he exclaimed, putting his hand on his heart. I was amused by his reaction.I knitted my brows looking at him when he said, "Now I am not even a barista in your eyes. Oh poor lord what have I done to you that my wife neither considers me a businessman nor a barista."That's when the reality sunk in. I was sitting in Keepers Cafe which was his. My eyes widened and I felt embarrassed."I am so sorry. I..I actually forgot that it's Keepers Cafe. I am really sorry." I stuttered."Hey...hey. It's totally fine. Y
Bride In Blue CH 16 || Overlook The Guilt Of The Past
Nikhil******I used to be a bully once, back in school. With time I realized how evil my actions were, how someone was hurting because of my act. I stopped when my conscience stopped supporting me. I stopped when my alter ego loathed me. I stopped when the girl I used to bully was nice to me despite my evil acts.That was the first time I felt ashamed and changed for good. I wasn't the same person anymore. I vowed never in my life I will ever hurt a soul.But all my vows, my promises were nothing when I realized I had again hurt someone deeply, such that she was not ready to even see my face.It was one in the night and I was in my car in front of Dia's house like I had been doing for the past four nights. After office, I had been staying outside her house in my car just to seek her forgiveness. But she had never once heed attention.She was hurt and her actions were justified. She was not to be blamed, I was.My trance broke when so
