Karan was just about to move away from her because he had thought that she had gone to sleep , when she frowned looking at him.

"Where are you going?" She clutched his collar immediately.

He sighed and shook his head.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" He frowned at her.

"Sunny mainu bhook lagi hai....tummy se awaaz aa rahi hai...." She sat up and rubbed her stomach.

"Who asked you not to have dinner at Wahi's place?" He sat up and rolled his eyes.

"Sunny mainu maagie chahiye...." She pouted. "Soupy....achaar ke saath...."

"Kya?" He looked at her getting startled.

"Haan abhi chahiye...." She frowned and stood up on the bed and swayed a bit.

"Laddoo...." He got up immediately and picked her up and she hugged him tightly wrapping her legs around his waist like a baby.

"Sunny maggie banao...." She said while burying her face into his neck.

"Fine...." He muttered and went out to the lounge and made her sit on the couch. "Keep sitting here quietly i will bring maggie...."

She nodded obediently and he went to the kitchen.

Teja looked around with curious eyes and saw pictures of his family.

"Sunnyyyyyyy...." She said in her baby voice.

"Haan?" He asked loudly from the kitchen.

"Sunnyyyyy aunty kitni cuteeeeee hai....aunty ki nose bhi kitni cute hai....teri tarah pakoda nose nahi hai...." She giggled like a baby and Karan rolled his eyes.

Teja got up silently and roamed around and then went to his closet room.

"Shoe store...." She said with widened eyes and went and sat on the floor in front of the shoe cabinet.

She took out some shoes and wore one of the white shoes on her right feet and another pink shoe on her left feet and clapped happily.

"Arrey kaha gayi...." Karan came out with the maggie and aachaar and frowned not seeing Teja in the lounge. He was about to check his room when he saw her sitting on the floor of his closet room wearing two different shoes. All his shoes were scattered on the floor.

"Sunny i want theseeeee...." She pointed at her feet.

Karan chuckled seeing her tiny feet in his huge shoes.

"Acchhaa?these are not your sizes...." He chuckled and came in and pulled her up with one hand while holding the bowl of maggie in his other hand.

"Toh?i want these....i will not open these...." She said stubbornly.

"Okay babah....lele....chal ab maggie khaa...." He held her carefully as she dragged her feet in the huge shoes and went to the lounge.

He made her sit on the couch.

She started to eat the maggie happily.

"It's yummy....are you masterchef?" She asked looking at him.

He nodded seriously.

"Hawww jhoota...." She hit his head and resumed eating.

Karan smiled softly looking at her. She looked nothing less than a small baby. He was zoned out while looking at her when he realised that she was sniffing.

"Arrey....laddoo what happened...." He immediately moved closer and cupped her cheeks and wiped her tears but more tears ran down her cheeks.

"Teju....baby....what's wrong?" He asked in his softest voice.

"I don't know what to do Sunny....i don't know how to hurt you...." She said with tears like a little girl.

"Hurt me?" He frowned in confusion not getting what she was saying.

"Everything that you are doing now....it makes me fall harder for you...." She sniffed and gulped. "Tu itna khayal rakhta hai mera....aur pyaar karne lagi hoon tujhse...."

Karan started at her in shock as she confessed.

"I had always loved you Karan....and the love only increases....with each day...." She said looking into his eyes.

Karan could feel his heartbeat going up and eyes getting moist.

"In Europe....i was just your rebound....that is why it was so easy for you nuh to leave me and go?i know you will again leave me....and i know galati teri nahi hai....galati meri hai....mai hoon nuh pagal....happy go lucky bubbly chirpy....how can i be someone's forever?" Her lips quivered and her voice cracked.

"Teja...." He whispered almost to himself.

This is what is in your heart?you are carrying so much pain?

"I want to hurt you....so that you go away from you....but i can't...." She sobbed. "I can't hurt you....but i know i have to do it....and i will do it....tu toh waise hi chala jayega....toh thode time pehele gaya toh kya fadhak padhega?as if i will have you forever....but yeh jo tu itna care kar raha hai mera....yeh tu jitna karega utna mujhe hurt hoga....baad mein when you will leave....so i have to stop you now....and to stop you the only way is to hurt you...." She took in deep breathes.

"Pata nahi itna pyaar kyun karne lagi tujhse....so much that it hurts....it pains...." She wiped her tears frantically.

Karan couldn't take it any more. He pulled her on his lap and hugged her tightly. She buried her face into his neck and cried as he rubbed her back and patted her hair.

"I can never be someone's forever...." She kept muttering and Karan closed his eyes and gulped.

A few minutes passed and she had calmed down. Her breathing was normal and she was not crying anymore. Karan got up with her in his arms and was about to walk to the room when he heard her say.

"I want to pee...."

Karan took her to the washroom.

"I am outside...." He muttered not looking at her and went out and closed the door and stood at the door.

"Sunny...." He heard her voice from inside.

"Ho gaya?" He asked slowly.

"Haan...." She said cutely.

He opened the door a little and peeped in to see her standing properly. He opened the door fully and took her to the room and made her lay down on the bed and covered her properly.

He kept patting her hair till she went to sleep.

"Ab tu dekh mai karta hoon....i will not let you hurt yourself like this...." He said softly caressing her hair.

"You will get all the happiness of the world...." He smiled softly. "Sahi kaha tune....you are not my forever...." He said and kissed her forehead.

"For me you are a little beyond forever...."
