Vansh

That is it. There is no other escape. He found out and we can do nothing but tell him about me. The point was do I trust him? No. Does she trust him? Yes. And do I like that? As much as it is, No.

I cannot risk him knowing the truth. He might not say it to anyone, but his actions will make sure to scream to the world that something fishy is going on in this house.

He, definitely, will have his concern for her. And would be inquisitive as well. Which I do not want. The stalker clearly said to not be stupid and mention it to a cop.

And I would give my all to protect what all I have. I stood up from my kneeling position and revealed myself. Kabir, the male, did not seem surprised but she did.

Probably thinking why I would do that, when she could have handled the matter, but she cannot be a hero everywhere. I should help too, since I am being selfish, I should at least try to stand up on my own.

Exiting, the kitchen island, I made my way towards them. And kept going but to Ms. Riddhima's side. I, sure as hell, would try to help. The shock was evident on her face and for a second I forgot how powerful she is.

But it quickly snapped in as I saw her clenching her fists. A weird thing for her to do but she was mighty after all.

She gave a what-the-f-are-you-doing-? look. Which, honestly, send shivers up and down my spines. But I ignored her with all my will and turned to the officer staring daggers at me.

My, my, if looks could kill, adjoining the both, I would be cradling in Hades' lap. They shared the same aquisitiveness and maybe thag was why they had that bond. That bond.

The first thing that came to my mind was an insane idea. Which I should have not done, considering the outcomes of it all. But me being me, I did it. And unfortunately, it was something I will regret till eternity.

I placed my hand on the small of her back, pulled her closer and my lips were grazed by a dazzling smile. I could just imagine the looks she must be giving me. The first one being baffled, soon it would turn into disbelief and then, anger and rage will blind her.

"Hello, you must be Kabir...?" I trailed off, with due confusion and rage, he answered my place, "Sinha, Kabir Sinha, Head Inspector of the Crime Branch in Mumbai, Main Branch, Andheri" he showered me with his details, yet trying to look intimidating. But I am only scared and intimidated by one person, which by the way I am angering right now.

"Uh.. I get the full details now, cop" I tried to be sarcastic. "Pleasure meeting you Mr. Kabir Sinha" I said politely. Yet he answered back in a different manner, "Wish I could say the same for you" sarcasm dripping wet from his voice.

Ok, this means war. "That was out of politeness, though, I am," I waited and gave a dramatic pose. "Honey, do not tell me you have not told him!" I gasped with fake disbelief and continued, "I am Vansh RaiSinghania, the founder and chairman of VR Corporation but for her and you" I pointed to the both of them with my pointer finger.

"I am Riddhu's boyfriend." Ok that was a lot, I cringed at the name. And I am sure she has a disgusted look on her face as well. I looked at her. Well... Sorry much huh? But then, I knew she processed the whole sentence and gasped, with eyes as wide as saucers and then, it was dominated by Anger.

I pleaded to god silently that when all this is over, she just does not gag me till death. "Your what?!!!?!!!?" Kabir exclaimed and turned to look at Riddhima. The look on his face was of pure shock and disbelief.

She shook her head a lot, trying to convey a no, but I kneed her. She looked at me with rage. But, then she sighed almost realising the plan. She turned to look at the cop, but not before giving me a death glare.

"Yes... I was about to tell you about this, but-" she got cut off by the cop. "Wait, is it not the same person who terminated you without a valid reason?" Shit. How do I explain this?

"Uh, that.." I trailed off and looked at her, she shared the same look. "I did it because, I, I did not want her to overwork herself. If you do not know, ask your friend about how much she overworks herself!" I emphasized on friend more.

"If I gave her a week off, alone, than people might suspect our professional atmosphere" I reasoned. "but now it is ok, I have her what else do I need to think off. She is the missing thing in me and I want her to stay with me and fill it up herself" she was at me looking with admiration and disbelief.

Ok. That was quite philosophic. Smooth like butter. It seemed like his doubts were cleared because something like sadness and confusion swirled around his eyes. By the time, I realized that, she had left my grip and walked till him.

Sorry man, but I have no other option. "O-ok, take care Riddhima and you, as well, do not roam around anywhere" he stated genuinely concerned about her. If only he knew.

I went up to them and held her hands, delicacy, I was scared she would be more angry than she already is.

"Do not worry, pal, I got this." I told him reassuring him with a smile, a genuine one. He nodded and left for the door. She seemed like she wanted to follow but she knew better and stopped, looking desperate to follow.

She looked down, eyes down in sadness. I put my hands in my pant pockets. She looked up and turned to me. While, I was smiling, she looked angry.

Why is she angry? Why would she be angr-Oh well, I am doomed. I gulped, her eyes were seeing red. And that is because of me. I am so dead.

"Vansh RaiSinghania" she seethed with anger, "you better have an explanation for this, because I will perish you, even if you give me one." Ohk I am so dead and for good.
