Chapter fifty-nine

"Srishti, I─"

Srishti almost threw the glass of water at him. It had been a week since everything was finally back to normal except her husband.

He had been like this since the past few days. Or actually the whole week. He wouldn't go beyond 'Srishti, I─' and it was getting on her nerves.

When he go beyond, the words made no sense to her.

"Srishti, I─I need that file."

"Srishti, I─I think Ayaansh is sleepy."

"Srishti, I─I am leaving."

So, she expected something utterly useless this time as well. When he didn't speak anything further, she turned around and stared at him, waiting for him to continue.

Sahil fumbled again. Seeing her, all that confidence he seemed to have gathered went down the flush. She was still waiting for him to complete his sentence but it wasn't like she was expecting something important.

"Yes, you what? Need a glass of water? Think Ayaansh is hungry? Or you want to tell me that you forgot?" She was pissed and he pursed his lips, annoyed at himself as well.

"I, just─"

"Oh shut up, Sahil. It's getting too annoying and if you are doing this to purposely then─then I─" This time she fumbled and he raised his eyebrows. What could she possibly do?

Sahil smirked. "Then you what, Srishti?" She glared at him and clenched her jaw. He was clearly enjoying this.

She huffed and looked away. Sahil chuckled seeing her getting angry and stretched out his hand to pull her towards him. She gasped at the suddenness and stared at him wide eyed.

"Since this is getting annoying, let me cut the chase," He paused, tucking her hair behind her ear as she continued staring at him. "I like you, Srishti." He confessed with a serious face.

Srishti blinked. Then blinked again. When his words registered her mind, a laugh escaped her lips. She tried to stop as he gave her an offended look but it was out of her control.

She laughed loudly in his arms while he stood there with an annoyed expression on his face, waiting for her to get over it. She did after five minutes but her eyes were still laughing.

"So, all these days, you were ─you were trying to tell me that you like me?" She chuckled and he frowned, not finding anything funny.

"Shutup, it's not everyday I tell you about my feelings." He grumbled and she shook her head with a smile. Srishti encircled her arms around his waist and rested her cheek on his chest. Almost immediately his arms went around her tiny frame, pulling her more close even when there was no space left.

She smiled against his chest. "Sahil, thank you for telling me. You know my feelings for you are more than like but let's take it slow." She looked up and he raised his brows. "One step a time?" She said cutely and he chuckled.

He flicked her forehead and she winced. "One step at a time." He agreed with a smile which turned her glare into a smile as well.
