TejRan: Destined For You

PART-6

WEDDING NIGHT:

TEJU'S POV:

I started observing the room, it was such a huge bedroom. The room was lit with aromatic candles. My heartbeat was racing like anything. There is still no sign of Karan.

After a long time I heard a sound door unlocking behind my back and I got tense and scared. Whaaat?? Where the hell did he come from? Is there another room inside this bedroom ?

Karan looked very upset and sad. He was wearing his night wear and looked good even in that.

"I am Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you" he said.

"Where did you come....." before completing my question he interrupted me.

He looked at me and said, "Why did you agree to this marriage? You could have said no, now we both are in an awkward situation."

"I know this is a very awkward situation. I know that you are in love with Anusha. I know, it is very difficult for you to see me as your wife when you have feelings for her. I didn't want to get married like this, But couldn't refuse as uncle requested me to accept this proposal. He is just like my father. I felt very bad, when I heard that he got an anxiety attack. I got really worried and thought that if me, agreeing to this marriage can ease his worries, It is ok with me"

"Ok, I understand but what about your life? What about your happiness?" he asked me.

"It doesn't matter that much, as compared to the grief we would feel if anything happens to our parents. Moreover, there was no one special in my life so I took this decision."

"I know you are a very nice and kind girl but I don't want you to sacrifice your dreams for me. 6 months that's the time we need to stay together to apply for a mutual divorce. Till that time we can share this room together and I'll take care of all your needs" he said.

I want to tell him that I have liked you since childhood but I can't. I know he was already heartbroken and upset so I just nodded my head.

He kept on looking at me for a few minutes and then said, "You may go and change, to be more comfortable."

I nodded saying," Yes, but I don't have
anything to change into.,"

Just then someone knocked on the door and Karan opened it. His mom was standing there with an overnight bag which had my toiletries and nightwear.

"Your mom sent it beta," she said, "You can use it and tomorrow we get you everything you need."

I nodded and said thanks. She smiled and after saying goodnight to both of us she left.

I took my bag and kept it near my dressing area and started to undo my complicated hair do. Then I started to remove my very heavy saree but it was attached to my blouse (top of the dress) at the back with safety pins.

I needed help to remove my saree pins. Shall I call aunty? I was very conscious that Karan was in the room, I needed help but couldn't ask him. He was sitting on the couch with his laptop on and was working on it.

He saw me struggling and asked me, "Do you need help? I can call mom..."

"Yes, all this is very complicated, I can't do it on my own, call her."

He went out to call aunty, but came and said " I am sorry, but mom was too tired, she has already slept."

I was just thinking when he came
and stood behind me. My heart was beating at double the rate.

Then he said, "I can't find anyone right now to help you, but I can... if you want."

I was not sure, but there was no other option so I nodded. He slid my hair to the side and started removing those safety pins. He was standing right behind me, so his hot breath was caressing my back which was bothering me.

His fingers brushed against my bareback and I shivered.

I said thanks to him and started removing my jewelry but my Mangal sutra and the string of my heavy set got entangled and though I tried my level best, I could not.

Karan saw this and came to help again and I swear his proximity was affecting me a lot. I kept standing there and he helped me to untie all the jewelry.

What was happening to me? Why was i melting by a mere touch of his hand? I said thanks to him and picked up my bag and went to change into the dressing room.

But before that I have to find
out where the hell did he come from? I went into the dressing room and looked around. There was only one door and that led to the washroom room. I went inside the washroom room and searched for hiding places. There is no place for him to hide in.

I removed my MakeUp, washed my face and changed into my pyjamas set.

I came out of the washroom and started folding my saree and jewelry, bangles etc and kept them properly in the cupboard and I was ready to sleep.

All the time he kept on working on the laptop. Then he said, " You must be tired, you can sleep on the bed and I will take the couch."

No I will take the couch as it is not big
enough for you so you can sleep on the bed," I said.

"It is ok, I have to work till late so you sleep on the bed. " he said looking at his laptop.

I sat on the bed and slipped under the cover. I must have been very tired. My eyes started getting close. And I slipped into slumber.
