Every step Together

45. A-PART

Tell me the truth, didn't I shock the hell out of you all with such an early update? Even I am shocked to the core, as I inked it so fast in my packed schedule.

Your unconditional LOVE made Maan and his Jaan 6k stronger, words fall short to explain what it means to me. Your love is something which I will cherish forever. You lovelies are reason for my improvement. Thank you would be the smallest word for the gratitude I have for you my extended family. Love you all

I somehow managed to write a chapter with less than 10k words.. Did any bug bite me?

Armaan's PoV :

Love gives us as much pain as happiness, the words became true in my case. I ran all over the bus stand like a mad man caring for nothing. I just want to see my Jaan and question her what sin I have committed which is making her push me away.

God, please help me. I need her. I winced in pain when my toe hit a huge pillar and my eyes caught a glimpse of Captain America. Captain America on a bag? My Jaan.

Breath stuck in my throat when I saw my life over there with trembling hands. She is looking deeply at the floor, the life which left me returned after seeing her. I breathed a sigh of relief standing exactly opposite to her, yet she didn't lift her face.

I am beyond scared to speak something. I am scared of hurting her, In these few days I clearly understood her, she is being controlled heavily by the influence of others. She looks all daring but deep down she is a fragile flower who is scared of showing her weakness to the world knowing that this cruel world will use that to their advantage and torture her more.

I have poured my heart before her. It was beyond tough choosing the words which soothe her and at the same time don't give her a benefit of doubt that I know her weak heart. I absolutely hate it when she thinks herself unworthy or degrades herself.

She asks reasons for my love, how can I explain that Love is something which happens beyond reason, logic, and everything. How can I prove to her that letting her go is something I can't do? How am I supposed to make her believe that my stupid heart goes berserk every damn time I stand near to her? What am I supposed to do now? What should I say to her?

With utmost difficulty I found my voice, eating back my tears I initiated. "Jaan" I called out with my broken voice.

She immediately looked at me with an astonished expression. The beautiful chocolate brown orbs of hers are filled with tears. It broke my heart into pieces seeing tears in those expressive eyes of her, she never speaks a thing directly with me but these beautiful orbs always let me know the truth her lips hide. They communicate me hope, care, happiness, love, and everything, and now seeing them in tears shattered me.

"Jaa.." quickly wiping her tears she refrained me from speaking by showing her hand. Her body language looked kind of different, the kind of Tripthi I never knew.

"Not a word Mr.Kohli, not a word. Enough of your speeches and essays. I am tired of hearing them. Now I'll speak and you will listen" her voice was commanding unlike before.

Being a human I prayed to God that she shouldn't say anything which breaks me even when my rational mind knew what's going to come will be something I won't be able to take.

Tripthi's PoV :

The wide smile I gave while opening the door died at the instance my eyes saw the person standing opposite to the door. I stepped back involuntarily, both Anna and Bhabhi's pupils enlarged. We stared into each other's eyes.

"What brought you here?" Anna was the one to break the silence.

"What is that question Rishi? Now that you are married, should I take your wife's permission to step into my nephew's house?"
