Tara Patel
I glanced down at the ring stored away in a velvet box, I gravitated towards it and slid the simple gold band I wore off and slipped the other on. My gaze lingered on the gold band.
"Tara, here." Ajay flashed me a grin, the eyebags under his eyes becoming more and more apparent. I raised an eyebrow, quickly opening the box to find a gold ring inside. His grin widened, "Happy One Year Anniversary!"
"Ajay, why did you spend money on something as childish as this?" I folded my arms, glaring. He shrugged, "I felt the need to do something special."
"Your company's swimming in debt, I don't need a ring." I huffed, he rolled his eyes and kissed my forehead. "You and I both know this is going to end soon, I'll be a stable position and I can marry you afterwards."
"I love you," I mumbled, relaxing in his arms. His chuckles made his chest vibrate, he stroked my back and the two of us let out a sigh together. "Gods, what would I do without you.."
I forced myself to look away, a large amount of hurt piling up in my chest. I swallowed the lump away, Shreyas sat beside me on the plane, a line of drool running down his lips. My eyelids felt heavy as I succumbed to my exhaustion and aching. Drifting away into the world of dreams and hopefully away from this agony.
"What would I do without you, Jay?" I mumbled, wrapping my arms around myself. I was rudely shaken out of my dreamless sleep by some bastard, "Tara, we're here."
Lights poured in as my eyes fluttered open, "What?"
I rubbed my eyes groggily and sat up, Shreyas stood in front of me. I shoved him off, already grumpy enough. Brushing past him, I grabbed my items and left plane like my ass was on fire. "Tara?" He called out in confusion.
"What? Do you need to me to help you with your luggage?" I snapped, feeling stressed. His face was a mask of a hurt, I huffed quickly walking out. The scenery of Kerala greeted me outside the airport, flashing camera's asking me when I was getting married.
Tonight.
