Mending Her

Chapter-39

I am sitting in the living room with everyone.

But nobody is saying anything.

Everyone was looking at me like I am some alien.

I was feeling uncomfortable.

"Why you are behaving like I have dropped a bomb?" I ask, irritated.

A few days ago they were nagging me to date, someone.

Now when I am doing as they are saying why they are behaving like this.

"Rehan send you the flowers?" he asks and I nod.

"When did this happen?" Does Tina ask showing fingers between us?

But before I can say anything Lily come toward me and hover over me.

She tries to choke me jokingly.

"Bitch, you didn't share this important thing with me? How dare you?" She yells and Rehan tries to push her back.

James comes to my rescue.

I look at her and shake my head.

This type of expression is common for her.

I didn't get hurt.

But Rehan was looking at me, concerned.

"Are you OK?" He asks and I nod.

"So anyone wants to ask anything more?" I ask and they all take their seat.

"So Rehan and I went on a business trip to the Maldives a few days back. When you were on your honeymoon." I roll my eyes at Lily and she bends her mouth mockingly.

"So there we spend some quality time and decide to be together. We came back yesterday, so I invited you all for dinner today." I say and everyone smiles.

Though Lily is acting to be angry I can see a slight curve in her face too.

"So you are official now?" They ask and I nod.

"We are officially dating," I say and Rehan gives me a side hug.

"Oh, my God. I am so happy for you." Tina is the first one who comes running and hugs me.

He congratulates Rehan too.

Joe is the second one.

Sid comes and hugs Rehan first.

"Though I should be angry with both of you because you are telling us now. But I am happy for you both, so you are forgiven." He says and hugs me too.

James comes and hugs me and Rehan.

Lily was sitting there with her sulky face.

I wink at Rehan and walk forward.

"So if you are not happy should I break up?" I ask and she glares at me.

"Don't you dare? I am not angry. I was just acting." she wink and come to hug me.

I laugh and hug her back.

Lily goes to hug Rehan but warn him.

"If you do something like John, I will cut your balls and this time James cannot stop me." She threatens.

"I will not hurt her, and it's not because of your threat. It's because I love her," he says and looks at me adoringly.

I look down shyly.

My face has become red as I am blushing.

"Aww, so cute. And Nyla is blushing look." Tina says and I blush more.

"Dinner will be cold. Come on everyone. Come to the dining table." I say and run away from there shyly.

When I was taking out the dishes outside, lily hold my hand and stop me.

"Why suddenly?" she asks.

I know she must be thinking why I agree after all these years denying to fall in love.

"When we were in the Maldives, we went scuba diving. Rehan was with me there. But suddenly my cylinder stop working and I was dying." lily gasp hearing.

"Rehan saved me, giving me his mouthpiece. But he got sick." I say sadly.

"but you know Lily, when I saw Rehan dying there I feel a pain in my heart. I feel like I will die if something happened to him," I say and she smiles.

"You also love him?" she asks happily.

"I don't know what is this. Is it love or not? But I know he is the person with whom I want to spend my life." I say and she hugs me.

"I told you he is a good person. I hope you both will be happy together." She says.

"OK, now let's go. Everyone must be waiting for us." I say, and she agrees.

That night everyone have our dinner happily.

Rehan liked my dish, and he ate with Relish.

Everyone left after dinner.

Though Rehan was reluctant to leave he left when he saw I don't want him to stay.

I don't want to force anything in this relation.

We will do it when we will feel like doing it.

I am happy Rehan was respecting my decision.

Two months later.

My relation with Rehan was improving day by day.

In these two months, we have gone on many dates.

But it was not in some fancy restaurants all the time.

Though I have stayed my whole life in London I never know there are so many spots to visit in London.

When my mom and dad moved to another city, I was living alone and with all the emotional tortures; I was going through. I never enjoyed my life.

I don't remember when I was this much happy last time.

Every moment with him I enjoy thoroughly.

My memories have long disappeared.

I know it will always remember somewhere in my memories.

But they don't hurt me now.

My broken heart is mending with his love.

Last week, he took me to meet with his family.

Her parents are very warm.

When they heard Rehan is dating me, they wanted to meet me.

But Rehan gave me the option that he will take me to them when I am ready.

I was first nervous but when I meet them I felt thrilled.

Everything was going very well.

He is mending my heart slowly.

He kept his promise.

He is filling up my memory book with so much happiness that I forget that there is some John and Chloe in my past.
