*David Pov*
When my phone started vibrating I opened my eyes but stayed in the same position for a few seconds wishing I can again place my head on her shoulder after shifting away, but I know I can’t no matter what if I don’t want her to completely ignore me.
“What time is it?” I asked, clearing my throat, finding her sitting still with her eyes on Bhai.
“6’o clock!” she replied, relaxing her shoulder after I moved away while I took out my phone only to find five missed calls from Mom.
“Did Mom call you?” I asked turning towards her, but she shook her head in negative still not looking at me.
“You didn’t have lunch, right? And not even snacks. You should have woke me up. You shouldn’t be on an empty stomach like this. Why don’t you go home?” I asked, standing up still not believing that I slept for nearly four hours.
This time
*Palak Pov*"Let her sleep comfortably for some more time." Mrs. Anthony's voice reached my ears while they shifted from the bed.I kept my eyes closed knowing well, it's already evening and I am supposed to have my snacks, but they decided to not wake me up.When I heard the door closed behind them, I immediately sat up straight before rushing towards the washroom.After walking out of the washroom, I sat on the bed finally feeling relieved after controlling my bladder for the past ten minutes while waiting for them to leave this room.Before resting I just went along with whatever they were talking because of the situation, but when I woke up it was more than awkward for me and I didn't know how to act in front of them.However, I know that whatever that happened is not because of these two and they could be the only ones who showed me their genuine feelings either be indifference or anything else.Som
*David Pov*"What are you doing here if you are that worried about her?" I glanced away from my mobile screen hearing his words."Are you trying to push me out of the room?" I asked, leaning backward on the chair while he just sighed lying on the bed.
#After Six Months#*David Pov*"Can I talk to you?" I got startled hearing her voice and even pushed my chair back to stand up immediately."Wh... what?" I asked not believing that she is here to talk to me by herself."Am I disturbing you right now?" she asked, glancing at the pile of work I am trying to work on even though today is Sunday.I want to spend time with Elisha in the evening and it is better to finish this before she wakes up. However, I think she already did as her Mother is holding her right now while she is gazing around."Sure! I mean, sure, you can talk to me and I am not busy right now." I replied, clearing my throat before gesturing her to sit on the couch and I moved my chair near to her.Why does she suddenly want to talk to me? I know I shouldn't be this surprised as we were communicating normally when she started taking care of Mom and Jasmine along with Elisha, when we lost B
*Prakash Pov*"Dad! I am really sorry. I have been really repenting for my mistakes." I continued, but he is not budging at all no matter how many times I am apologizing.He should know already that I am repenting when I am apologizing by myself when I generally don't do that at all."Be content with the fact that I am letting you live here. Don't ask again to join the company because no one is wishing to let you come near the director position." Saying that he stood up from the table to leave."Should I go and apologize to that... Palak or what?" I asked fisting my hands and he paused hearing my words."Don't even go near her. It's been nearly one year since she gave birth to my granddaughter but I don't have any right to even see her face. I had to relay on other tactics to even know this information and I am going to contact them soon, even though I feel like they will reject my wish. If you trouble her then I don'
*David Pov*"Is something wrong, David? You had a conference during this time, right?" Mom asked when I calmly walked out of the kitchen after she rushed away."It got postponed." I mumbled, still in shock with my own actions.What have I done? Will she get angry and leave? Oh god! Why didn't I stop myself? Do I regret? No! Somehow I don't regret it, but scared about the result for sure. But then she... she kissed me back and of not for Jasmine's footsteps, I don't know what would have happened.It is a good thing that we heard Jasmine or else it would have been a disaster for sure if they caught us in that situation. Damn it! What am I even thinking right now when there is a chance for her to leave this house because of this?I heard their discussion about the shopping they did and the shopping they have to do later for some time before escaping into my study room, but continued to pace around thinking about a plan t
*Palak Pov*I frowned, looking at the number I was sure will not appear on my phone screen again instead of the one I was expecting.It's been nearly a week since he went to the meeting and he continued to call everyday in the evening and then at night. He already knows my schedule, but he still calls during my work timings and ask about Eli.
*David Pov*"You are grasping things too fast. You can join our company after graduation and become successfully independent for sure." I commented when she finished the work I passed to her within a short time."If I join our company then how can I be independent?" she asked, shaking her head and Palak snorted hearing that question, but glanced away to concentrate on her own work I gave her.
*Palak Pov*What have I done just now? I thought, glancing at him and he has the same expression, but that shock left when I found Satish is pushing his way to reach us from the crowd.He pointed out at the guy standing beside my brother and I know that he is the son of the client we came here for. No wonder it was easy for them to act this way as this was his house."I need to add that my husband has been drugged in this party and we are going to take a legal action." I added which stunned Satish but he calmly shifted to stand beside us."We caught the helper who helped the two people who planned this and we have the security footage." He mumbled making me sigh in relief."Thank you for having high level security in your new home, but I need to have a word with you." I said, looking at the client who is still having a bewildered expression on his face."Get the main culprit to get arrested first." I ordered Sa
