Heart me ❤💫

Chapter 18

Both of them entered Shehnaaz's apartment with a happy heart.

Sidharth went and settled down on the couch while Shehnaaz was still standing leaning on the closed main door and playing with her fingers. He was staring at her while she was looking down. He chuckled at her behaviour.

He got up from the couch and moved towards her. She could feel him near her. Her cheeks were flushing in bright red. He took her hands in his and called her softly.

Sidharth: Shehnaaz.

Shehnaaz just hummed as a response. He suddenly started laughing at her indifferent behaviour. She looked up and found him laughing his heart out. She couldn't understand the reason behind it. She frowned at him.

Shehnaaz: Sidharth.

She nudged him to gain his attention and to ask him what was so funny.

Sidharth: Oh god Shehnaaz.

He finally stopped laughing and went more close to her engulfing her in a hug. She was startled at his sudden attempt but she reciprocated with a smile. She was so tiny in front of him.
He could even hold her petite body with his one hand. He chuckled at his own thought.

Shehnaaz: Sidharth why are you laughing ? What's so funny ? Share it with me as well so that we can laugh at it together.

She said peeping her head from his chest and looking at him. He also looked at her and smiled at her innocence.

Sidharth: Well I was laughing because of you.

Shehnaaz: Hein ?

She raised his eyebrows to understand what he was saying. He bent down his head to reach her ears and said in his husky voice.

Sidharth: I never knew that you can be so shy and that also because of me. Not that I'm complaining but how many shades do you have ?

He then kissed her forehead saying that making her blush more than ever. She hit his chest with her tiny fist and hide herself in his embrace. He hugged her tightly more than before.

Sidharth: Shehnaaz.

Shehnaaz: Hmm.

Sidharth: Now you are mine right ?

He asked hesitantly anticipating a positive answer from her side. She came out from his embrace and walked up to the couch and sat down there. He followed her and sat beside her. She held her head between her hands and started sobbing mutely.

He kept his hand on her thigh and felt a tear on his hand. He now forcefully took her face in his hands and looked into her eyes. There she was crying turning her eyes red. He sighed and pulled her closer by her hands. She nodded in no and took her hands from his hold but he was adamant, he again pulled her and held her hands tightly to not to let go. She tried to free her hands from his hold but failed miserably.

He now again took her face in his hands and joined his forehead with hers. Both of them closed their eyes and felt their hot breathes on each other's faces.

Sidharth: Shehnaaz.

He called her in a broken voice. He was in the verge of crying too but controlled himself. He wanted an answer from her. Was it too difficult for her to answer ? He thought.

Sidharth: Shehnaaz I don't know what's going inside your head but just tell me you don't regret the kiss we shared. Please. I....I....I just want you to answer honestly.

She looked up at him and saw a tear rolling down his face. Her eyes widened. This big man was crying in front of her and that too for her! She cursed herself for making him feel like that. She cupped his face and wiped his tears. She kissed on his left cheek making him smile through his tears.
