9-{Falling For You!💌}

Third person's pov

Ishan had gone to the book fair once again today earlier this morning, as Shriya had planned to surprise the children with some gifts and had also asked Ishan to come along as he had helped her in choosing those gifts, Shriya had definitely been much more interested in this new formed friendship between her and Ishan as she felt more and more connected every new day as Ishan was trying his best to make her fall for him.

Meanwhile he himself was getting into something bigger, he had been meeting Shriya much more often than he should be. And he didn't even knew the reason for these feelings that were drawing him towards her by each passing day. Last night Ishan had showered his anger on Arshita as that toy was supposed to be for that little friend Pia, he had met in that book fair on his first day. Shriya wanted him to gift that toy to her himself and it meant a lot to her.

And right now when Shriya was giving everyone gifts, she turned to Ishan asking for Pia's gift but he stood there not knowing what to say, "Can you come and talk to me for a moment" Ishan said grabbing Shriya's arm and she gave him a look as the two of them walked to a corner.

"What is it? Why are you behaving so weirdly?" Shriya asked him while Ishan took a deep breathe while rubbing the back of his neck and said, "Actually, that toy, it....it... I broke it"

"WHAT?" Shriya almost shouted while Ishan gave out an apologizing look and Shriya just shook her head saying, "You're telling me now? Seriously Ishan? I trusted you with one little thing and you couldn't even keep that"

"I'm... I'm really sorry, It was a mistake, please.... I can bring a new one right now if you want me to" Ishan said and Shriya just sighed saying, "I can't believe you, are you looking at her face, she's been waiting for this all day! I'm seriously done, why did I even trusted you in the first place? I know it wouldn't end up right"

"I'm sorry, you didn't picked up my call last night and I couldn't tell you. It was really a mistake. I promise I'll do something" Ishan said but Shriya just shook her head as she said in lower tone, "Stop fooling around for god's sake! You know you're the first person after me whom these kids like so much, but I guess this all means nothing to you! So if you're just here to fool around or for any other objective then please stop doing that! I don't want them to get hurt!"

"I told you it was completely a mistake and I'm sorry for it but are you talking about them or yourself Shriya?" Ishan asked her with a straight face and she just sighed while looking away angrily.

"I'm sorry for fooling around" Ishan said as he walked out of there and came back upto his car while banging his hand on the steering wheel!

"Why do I keep getting worried for her while I'm at this? Why does it affect me so much? I can't feel like this for her! I need to stop doing this shit!!" Ishan murmured to himself while shaking his head because he couldn't understand what was happening to him! It was all messing up his mind along with his heart.

Shubman's Pov

Last night was eventful!! First, Arshita met her mother after almost eight years and she was absolutely hit with many emotions and couldn't help but break down! She is someone who has been through a lot in her life, I know because I never wanted to leave her side in any moment or part of her life. The way she is today is because of what she has faced in her past. A lot of heartbreaking moments which had changed her outlook on the matter of love!!

I had always wished to have her as my girlfriend, someone I could hold close in arms and make her feel like it's the safest place in the world! I wanted to remove every that part from her life which hurted her in anyway, and last night when Ishan acted to strangely and rudely with her. I couldn't understand what was wrong with him, he had shouted on her saying some useless things even when he knew that her mood was low!
