Arjun’s PoV
The moment I heard her say his name, I lost it all. It slipped out of her tongue with ease. I saw her face change through the rear-view mirror in a split second. She felt at ease as soon as she realized that no one noticed her mistake, that nerve of this girl. We made love just the night before and she could still think of her ex-boyfriend? What kind of girl is she? She still has him in her heart? What was she thinking when she made love to me? Thinking of him? I felt like being slippered naked. I could not take this. Not anymore. I love her and she will spend her life with me. But she will never receive any love from me.
Enough of guessing games, enough of trying to understand her or consider her age. I decided to tell her on her face that I know about her love life and also tell her that her life is doomed. Afterall my patience was han
Anika’s PoVHe’s decided to punish me without even letting me explain my side. So I have decided to shower my love on him to make him understand what we really have between us. He took me back to our room after my late lunch. Since ours was a suite, we had a sitting area with a trundle sofa and a small partition with a microwave, coffee maker, and fridge and a separate room with a huge bed and attached bathroom.When we went in, she was sleeping on the sofa. He went to her and gently shuffled her from her sleep.“Anu, refresh and come. Let's go have some coffee and an evening snack.” He told her. I just had my lunch and I cannot eat anything until tomorrow, that is how full I am.“Sure!” She went into th
Arjun’s PoVI had already made arrangements for Anu to go to Salem where one of my acquaintances is practising as a doctor. We wanted everything to be lowkey and as subtle as possible so I avoided joining with her. I arranged a special transport for her from Chennai to Salem and dropped her.“Thank you so much, Arjun.”“Don’t mention it, Anu. Here, have this phone and use it to contact me at any time. I have saved my number in it. The doctor there will take care of you very well. All your necessities will be fulfilled there. If you need anything, ask them or me. Ok?”“Sure, Arjun. About my request..?”“I will surely make arrangements
Anika’s PoVWith the force the door opened, I shrieked in horror and threw the phone away. I looked up to see him with a terrifying face. He didn't speak a word to me but went into the room where I think we are going to stay. I started to follow him to the room just when our driver came in with a load of baggage. I ran to help him.“Oh, here, give it to me, bro.”“No issues, madam. Where do I place them?”“Just leave it here, I will take them inside.”He went back for more luggage, I am confused. What is all this? Looks like he had packed up all the stuff from that home to here. Is he going to keep me here forever? What does he think it will do to me?
Arjun’s PoV‘I have finally found the meaning of love but it seems useless now.’ What does that even mean? It is useless since she married me?‘My past has become a nightmare’ this one I agree. Her past, I cannot even say that it is her past when she clearly still has feelings for him. It is a nightmare, not for her, but for me.She still hates Preethi. Does not get a good vibe? Preethi is a sweetheart who always cheered me up in my low times. She made me open up to people. She stood by my side and understood me very well. Anika can never talk ill about her.‘My love and mistakes came haunting me.’ Yup, you always have to pay for the deeds you do. You do good, goodness comes to you. If you do bad, evil w
Anika’s PoVHis cold behavior towards me is killing me. He ordered me to do chores all day and also expects me to finish the jewelry in my free time. Free time? Like if there is any. He woke me up with a harsh comment which I don't even want to think about. I could still remember those lust filled eyes when he saw me, yet he called me a low word. Above all, he thrusted the tray full of earrings on the floor and with the force he pushed, some of them broke into pieces. All my work went in vain.I am getting tired of his behavior in just two days. How can I manage his insults and arrogance for the rest of my life? Do I still love him after all this? My stupid heart says YES. But I am not here enduring all this shit just because I love him. I am here because I am indebted to him. He has helped my family with a huge amount of money though I didn't ask for it. He want
Arjun’s PoVI called Praveen on the way to the office. I don't know anyone who works at a cell phone service provider center to acquire the person on whose name the sim card was bought. Praveen is a very talkative man and has loads of friends. He is a man with exclusive people skills, he can get the work done even if he doesn't know anyone there.“Praveen, where are you?”“In the lab. I arrived early today. Where are you?”“On the way to the lab.”“What, why? I thought you said you will come only three days a week and today is not among the days you have mentioned.”“Yeah, I
Anika’s PoVThat was a blunder again. Gosh, why is it so hard to withhold my tongue? He was already fuming and I added fuel to his anger. With that force he raised his hand, I wouldn't have survived if he had slapped me. He dashed out of the door and banged it behind him. Now I am left all alone in this room. To do what? I am now not sure how I am going to fix this. Where did he go now? He is extremely angry to drive his car. I ran out but saw his car sitting right where he parked it. Ok, he didn't go out, but where is he?All I wanted to do was to explain that there is nothing between me and Arun that is alive. I wanted to apologise to him for that name slip. I wanted to explain that whatever he thinks or is fed to think is completely false. I wanted to tell him that I am very loyal to him in this relationship. I wanted to clarify that Arun was a closed chapter.
Anika’s PoVAfter Arjun left home on a Monday morning, I called for a call-taxi and waited impatiently to go to Preethi’s husband’s house. His name is Nilesh. I don't really know what I am expecting him to tell me or reveal me. But I need to start somewhere without Arjun’s knowledge and as far as I know, Arjun hates this guy for ruining Preethi’s life. So, the chances of them meeting are zero if not negative.Once after we had that big fight, I knew I had to do something to make it right and I also knew Harish is working with Preethi. I explained the situation to Harish and asked him to get something out of her mouth about her ex-husband so that we can find him. Harish was a huge help and the most important thing is he never judged me or Arjun and he also never pestered me with questions. I am blessed to have him in my life.
