7 # His Crush ?

Third Person's POV

He smiled, she felt relaxed. She thought, "Should I think that he had forgiven me for using such a bad word for him?"

Sharanya bit her lower lips and paid the bill of the books and asked him for her bag. He didn't want to give her but he handed.

Her heart was still racing because of being with him. she is followed by him. Her mind argued, "Is he really excessively much jerk? As people say."

"Sharanya, he is treating you well from the very first day, you should not think that he is arrogant or jerk," Her mind scolded her. She was in her thoughts and missed the step of the stairs. He again held her to prevent from falling.

"Thanks," She whispered nervously. 

"Are you habitual of falling or missing the steps?" He asked in a normal tone but she certainly scared of his voice.

"No, I'm sorry," She apologised and littered with the hopes that he won't listen to me, "Why are you with me? Your presence makes me uncomfortable, if you aren't here, I will not fall again."

"I will not be everywhere to save you," He asserted and overtook her way. He whirled and gestured, "Your friends."

He scrambled from there immediately. Soon he was disappeared from there. She sighed in relief. 

"Hey, Sharanya, come fast," Anna shouted. The way Terence was discerning her friend, he feels for her. It was clear, but her friend, Anna wasn't attentive. 

Sharanya headed to their car feeling relaxed as Arnav had left the place.

"You dumbo, how could you dare to say anything about the ASR in front of him?" The first scold was thrown by Remya with a deadly glare.

"Of course,  you are such a fool, baby. He is gonna kill you," Anna shouted on her.

"Chill, guys, he is not gonna do anything, okay?" Terence winked as Sharanya sighed in relief. 

Arnav probably didn't leave the place yet. He was waiting for her, once she will pass from there, he will leave, too.

Sharanya makes some different kind of crush for her in his heart. No girl affected him that much before. He doesn't know which type of feelings these are, but he loses himself when he sees her. She became his obsession. 

She placed her bag and her friends' bags in the car. Anna joined her and Remya went with Romil. 

"Will you give me a lift?" Terrence shrugged as he doesn't want to be a bone between the couple. And he wants some more time to spend with Anna. Apparently, he is crushing on her. His curvy smile was the inkling of his crush, but Anna couldn't understand yet.

"Of course," Sharanya smiled and offered the keys, "Wanna drive?" 

"Nope, you enjoy your driving, I will be at the back seat, enjoying the ride," He asserted in a naughty tone.

"Okay," she opened the door and sat inside. Anna took a seat beside her and she ignited the engine.

Terence was gazing at Anna from the front mirror. Sharanya observed him and it was cleared for her that he is starving for her. She chuckled at the stupefied of Anna. 

After some general discussion, she dropped him at his home. It was quite a big villa. Anna chuckled looking at his home. 

"Wow, it's looking pretty," Anna whispered with a broad smile on her face.

"I don't mind if both of you come and have coffee with me," Terence invited them with a hope that they would come.

The girls glanced at each other and Anna denied politely, "We are sorry, but we are tired and it will be better we will go to the hostel."

"It's okay, guys, thanks for the lift," Terence sighed and waved. The girls waved back.

"Dumbo girl, couldn't she feel his gaze on her?" Sharanya thought and accelerated the car to pick up the speed. After driving for more than an hour, they reached the hostel. 

Taking the shower of fifteen minutes, Sharanya came out of the bathroom, vacating for Anna. She tilted at this girl, who was still checking her things which she had bought from the mall.

"Ms Anna, will you go to the bathroom and get freshen up?" Sharanya shrieked at her, rolling her eyes.

"Sharanya, you are crazy, why didn't you shop at the mall?" Anna frowned at her.

"Anna, I'm wandering in Ferrari it doesn't mean that I have a lot of money. I got it from Grandpa, you know that. And I don't believe in wasting money.  I believe that if we have enough money, we should help who needs," Sharanya explained wiping of her hairs with a towel.

"I know, this was all told by your great, grandpa. But he had more than enough money, he does charity. He allows you to spend for whatever you want, then why do you behave like you are a charity case?" Anna frowned shaking her head. She packed again her bags and placed them in the wardrobe.

"For engagement, what I need, I bought. Other things are available with me," Sharanya chuckled.

Anna came out after a long shower. She saw Sharanya was studying something.  

"I thought, you are tired of the whole day work and shopping etc. That's why I denied to Terence," Anna whined with a little frown.

"I supposed to visit his villa, you declined," Sharanya rolled her eyes.

"Adieu, this girl is so funny. By the way, what are you studying?" She took a seat beside Sharanya.

"This jerk, ASR ordered me to give a presentation in front of his investors," Sharanya frowned. Her, anger was quite visible on her face and sounding in her voice.

"Great, don't you think, he is additionally delighted than usual, especially with you," Anna teased her tugging her shoulder to her.

"I don't know, but for now I'm damn sure, Terrence is damn crazy for you. He is fucking crushed on you," Sharanya grinned with a nasty tone.

"No way, we just met a few days ago when I went with Remya to meet Romil. You have some kind of misunderstanding," She hugged her.

"What if ASR has a deep crush on you?" Anna dropped a bomb in front of her.

"That, jerk. No way. You know, in his office, everyone afraid of him. Some of the employees told me that he can fire anyone at any time. He is presumed as an angry bird," Sharanya beamed.

"But what if he had?" Anna wasn't ready to leave this topic.

"Anna, you are overthinking, cheesy. He can't. And whatever if he had, I do not accept it. I will marry whom my grandpa will choose for me, okay?" Sharanya put the laptop down and got up.

"No more discussion on that arrogant jerk, who some ever he is," Sharanya warned her and Anna chuckled.

It was only Anna's doubt about Arnav, as she observed in the mall. Whether she can't confirm it as the matter regarding the ASR, her one single utter and she is gonna die.

"Let's have dinner and go to bed early," Sharanya sighed and Anna got up to go with her.

While having dinner in canteen, Sharanya asked, "Don't you think that the food in our canteen has been improved in quality?" 

"Yeah, it has been you fell sick," Anna acknowledged her.

"Maybe, Dadaji (Grandpa) complained about it," Sharanya thought and continued eating food.

"Hello, sir, " Naren picked up the call.

"What about I asked for?" Summer asked his PA sitting in his office chair.

"Sir, you were right, she is the granddaughter of The Lieutenant general, Vashishth Sharma," Naren confirmed and also mailed him the address and details of Mr Sharma.

"Sir, check out your mail," Naren asked him to check details.

A broad smile spread over Sumer's face and he was about to cut the call, but Naren continued, "Sir, Another problem is created."

"What was that?" Sumer's face beamed in tension.

"Sir, our hotel project, you remember. We wanna start construction from next month. The owner denied to sell his land," Naren banged a tense on him.

"Who is the owner?" Sumersingh asked worriedly. He is steady and calm in every decision. Although, his son is aggressive and speedy in taking verdict.

"The Lieutenant general, "Vashishth Sharma," Naren declared awfully.

"What?" Sumer got up in his chair with the anxiety.

"Yes, sir. And now, ASR sir is he angry on him. He is going to meet Mr Sharma tomorrow," Naren dropped another bomb in front of Naren.

"Okay, let me handle this, " Sumer sighed and hung up the call.

He went to Arnav's cabin and walked inside without knocking at the door.

"Hey, son. You're looking angry," He patted his back and stood by his side.

"Nothing, Dad. The landowner denied selling his land to us where we wanted to construct the hotel," Arnav sighed and got up giving a chair his father to sit.

"Okay, but you will not go to meet him, I will go there tomorrow," Sumer advised him taking a seat on the chair.

"Dad, let me deal with him," Arnav grinned gritting his teeth with rage.

Anyone couldn't dare to deny him. He is hell angry with the man who is the landowner. This is his dream to own a hotel. This is his step into a hotel business from the Constitution business. He is the best in the architecture world. 

He never heard 'No' from anyone. Sumer was well known for his habit and aggressive nature. That's why he denied him to go and meet Mr Sharma. He knows how important the hotel project for Arnav. The land they have chosen was perfect and having the best atmosphere for the hotel business. 

"Arnav, let me handle this, I promise you won't regret leaving it upon me,"  Sumer gleamed with the winning smirk on his face. As he knows, his son can never deny him. He is an ideal person for his son. He can never deny his any wish or proposal.

"Okay, Dad. Try it on your own, after that, I will deal with that man," Arnav gritted his teeth with anger and his voice became harsh.

"It will not need, I will make it in your favour, trust me," He got up and smiled at Arnav.

He returned the smile to his father. He never understands why his father is so calming at everything. He never saw his parents fighting. If his mother got angry ever, his father only smiled at her and the fight or problems solved immediately. His mother had never anything remained to argue with his father. He likes that part of his father.

Sumer left from there earlier and went home. 

After dinner...

"Ananya, I have chosen a girl for Arnav," Sumer asserted with a sad smile.

"Alright, who is she? I have also chosen one for him," Ananya laid beside him on the bed.

"Whom do you choose?" Sumer asked her sheepishly. As he knows that he is blowing the flame.

"Chitra, you know her," Ananya held his hand with a broad smile.

"Nice, I want Kalyani's daughter as our daughter in law," Sumer dropped a bomb, as he knows it will make her angry. And he was ready to face her wrath.

"What did you just say?" Ananya left his hand immediately and frowned.

"Did you still remember her?" She gritted her teeth.

"Ananya, don't forget, our business was built up from the money given by her," Sumer replied lightly.

"So what? You know what they did, and still, you want her daughter in our home. I will never accept her. If Arnav will learn the truth, he will not accept her," Ananya shouted on him.

"Whatever, she will be Arnav's wife, I don't care about you and your thoughts," Sumer shouted and sauntered out of the room with anger.

"Never... " Ananya roared behind him, the sound echoed in the villa.
