" I like you , you idiot " She screamed making him go speechless

" But that's not the point. The point is why do you like me if you think i am immature , child and god knows what all " She continued before he could say something

" I didn't mean that okay ? Her  question took me by surprise . What could have i answered her .. So i just said that in the spurr of the moment. I couldn't have possibly told her there's something between us " He answered and she rolled her eyes

" And why couldn't you just tell her ? Why did you have to lie to her ? As if you hadn't told patel about us then what was the point of not telling karishma ? " she asked

" God , you are taking it in a wrong way . Patel and i had a different conversation . Not that i don't want people to know about or i am ashamed but tell me what could have i possibly told them ? Did you tell me you liked me back ? " He said

" You are telling me that my actions weren't enough to tell you that ? Do you think i go around kissing guys i don't like or what ?" she said angrily

" This is not about that. I don't want others to know when you yourself weren't clear. What could have i possibly told her when you were so hesitant on confessing teja ? "

" I was not h- "

" You were and i could see righ through it . For a moment i thought its because you don't like me back but when i knew you did , i could see it. You weren't able to confess to yourself , to me then how would have you been able to confess to everybody about us ? With what right could have i told others ? I gave you so many hints , made it so obvious that i liked you yet you didn't seem to believe that i actually like you " He said and she stared at him dumfounded.

" I don't know the reason laddoo but i just want you to know i am here for you . I care for you ... The only sanity i have here is you . Just tell me what's it that was bothering you all this while ? " He asked his eyes turning soft

" I.. you kno- " She fumbled with words trying to make sense of words but it didn't happen .He sighed and stepped towards her .

" Come " He said holding her hand and dragging her out . He took a chocolate shake from the bar on the terrace as she went and sat down on the pool edge

He came and sat beside her wrapping an arm around her . They sat in silence staring at the moon and stars while she sipped her shake

" I was 22 when i had my first relationship " She staeted slowly her eyes not leaving the sky

" I don't want to get into details but it was a toxic relationship. I kept suffering and didn't tell anybody. And before you say anything , yes that's my old habit. I would rather taunt and dostance people away rather than tell them what i am suffering from . Because , as i told you before that was how i was grown up . To be strong for my family , so i couldn't share it with them as there were already so many problems . " She said and he listened to her calmly. She looked at him who had a neutral face yet comforting aura  letting her continue .

" I am an extremist karan. You know when i like someday , i can go to any extent for them. Even if it means giving my life. I don't know how to unlove people easily , i fight for them till the last moment untill they finally break me . Everytime i get into a relationship ,it scares me , the past scares me because the past relationships have left such scars on me. I would even tolerate any shit and forgive them till the moment i love them . And everytime i ended up getting my hearbroken. " He wiped the corner of her eyes as she spoke. He squeezed her hand to let her know he was here and encouraged her to continue

" i grew attached to you so quickly   it scared me . All my life i had my guards which i didn't let anybody enter yet i ler you . You understand me so much and the way you can look at the hidden me , it scares me to death. I was trying to protect my heart by telling myself this was all just an infatuation . But everyday , it kept growing more and more , you kept sneaking in my heart nore and more ... I was afraid what if you didn't like me ...  You are a different person from me karan. You are calm , sensible , mature and i am a mess , a chaotic mess .... Your types are so different that i still refuse to believe that you chose me " She said gently laying her head on his shoulder 

He hugged her enclosing his arms around her and kissed her hair

" I was scared too laddoo... I was so afraid of the way you get me that i even tried to distance myself from you . Do you remember when those articles came and the fight we had ? Well half of the reason was this too. I understand you laddoo and i am sorry you had to go through all that. " He kissed her forehead

" All those guys were morons and stupid to let a girl like you but i am lucky i got you ... And believe me i wouldn't chose anybody else other than you " He said

" You keep me sane .... I know my type wasn't this but you should be proud of yourself for making such a deep impression on me. I couldn't stop thinking about from the moment i met you ... I am calm boring and that's why i need you . My little ball of enery to keep me going " He mumbled kissing her cheeks

" And now that i am here , promise me you aren't going to hide your problems and pain anymore . All your life you have taken care of your family now let me take care of you. yeah ? " He asked and she nodded smiling

" okay " She mumbled " But don't go around talking like that about me again ... " She complained and he chuckled

" Haa and don't ever talk to me in that tone again."

" what tone ? " She asked with a lopsided grin

" Haa ban mat zyada , Tone dekhi thi tune apni ? Kis tareeke se baat kru tune mujhse ? Mai kitna bada hu tujhse ..Shukar kar tu thi , warna kisi ki himmat ni mese aise baat kr-

" Helloo , Tu karan Kundrra hoga apne ghar me , Mere liye tu sunny hai .... Sweetu sa sunny " She carressed his chin

" Helloo, What was that dialogue baazi though ? Mai akeli rehjati hu ? Seriously ? Mai ni hu tere saath ? Aur baaki log ? " He mocked jerking her hand and she smiled trying to carress his chin more but he kept jerking

" That was the truth , you talked to patel about me , then tanna .. I mean kyu ... merse ne kr skt-

" I got it now " He exclaimed interrupting her

" What ? " She frowned

" you were jealous " He grinned

" Jealous ? Why the hell would i be jealous and of who ? " She tsked

" Tanna " He pointed out

" The main problem wasn't that i talked to her about you , the main problem was that i was talking to her " He grinned evilly and she gulped looking away

" what nonsense aisa kuch nahi hai " she stammered

" Really ? So you are saying ki agar tanna ki jagah patel ya koi aur hota toh tujhe utni hi problem hoti ? " He asked his voice suddenly husky as he whispered in her ear.

" Yeah "

" Pakka ? Toh tujhe koi problem nahi hogi agar mai jake karishma se baate karu ? " He kissed her earlobe making her close he eyes and arch her head

" yes " Her voice came shaky and breathless

" Sure ? Cool , then i'll have breakfast with her tomorrow also " He said resting his head on her head . She clutched his shirt in her fists and looked at him opening her eyes

" Don't you dare " she mumbled in an angry voice

" And why is that Laddoo ? " He asked with a coy smile . She pulled him closer taking his lips in hers urgently nibbling on them. Then she nibbled on the skin of his neck biting there leaving a hickey . She looked up at him in satisfaction marking him as her and whispered in his ears kissing it

" Because Sunny is only laddo's "
