My Sweet And Sassy Love

|| EPISODE 26 ||

Sarah's POV

I woke up and stretched a bit, the sunrays gently hitting my face. Everyone was getting down from the jet.

We had arrived on an island far away from the bustling crowd; it was just us here.

We were now on Biyadhoo Island, which was bought by the Singhania Group last year. The public is allowed here, but today it felt like our private paradise.

It is a popular tourist spot, especially for couples wanting to enjoy some quality time together.

"Wow, this is so awesome!" Tirtha screamed with excitement.

"Your friend sounds so happy, right bhabhi?" Abhay said, coming to my side.

I smiled, seeing my friends so excited. I never once looked in Abhishek's direction. I just didn't want to spoil this vacation.

For me and my people, I have to be strong enough to let go of the past and move forward.

"Sidha, wake up, you sleepyhead," Tirtha teased him.

"Sis, my head is about to roll down. Please help me," he said, coming to Tirtha in a panic.

He is still a kid at heart.

Laughing, Tirtha cupped Sid's cheeks while Archana and I rubbed his back.

Sid's jet lag was terrible; he would puke as soon as he entered the plane.

"Now it's okay," Sid said, stretching his arms.

I looked around and my eyes landed on Aryan, who was standing at the door, ready to get down. My eyes widened in appreciation, and I felt thousands of butterflies in my stomach.

He was truly an eye candy. The two buttons on his t-shirt were left open, his hair was a bit messed up, giving him a morning look. The sun rays made his whole persona glow even more.

"Stop drooling over your husband," I heard Tirtha say.

"He is really the definition of perfect, isn't he? He is an eye candy. And above all, I married him, so he is mine. What is wrong with checking out your husband?" I couldn't take my eyes off him.

"Sarah darling, tsk... tsk... tsk, you have already fallen for him," Tirtha teased, snapping me out of my dreamland.

"Gosh... What did I say? How can I even say that? Sarah... pull yourself together. Remember, you can never fall for anyone," I closed my eyes and chanted the last sentence repeatedly in my mind.

I heard Tirtha's laugh.

"Stop it, Tirtha," I groaned.

I saw Luksh and Pooja stealing glances at each other.

"Let's go, my kitty," Aryan's chest came into contact with my back.

I gasped loudly at our sudden closeness. My skin tingled for the first time. "I just want to keep hugging him forever. Oh god, Sarah... Don't think of this... Strictly don't think of him. He and you can never be possible..."

To distract myself, I looked at my friends. Seeing them all happy made me smile.

When I took a step back to create some distance, my leg hit a bag, and I stumbled back. Within a second, I was in Aryan's hold. He was holding me tight. I looked up into his mesmerizing eyes, panic evident in his gaze. Pulling me up towards him, he made me stand still. My hands were gripping his t-shirt tightly.

"Careful, my kitty," he said, looking into my eyes with a playful smile. Staring at him, I saw his beautiful, flawless smile. My heart started to pound like drums. I was lost in him. His blue orbs took me into a universe of only me and him. I stopped blinking, afraid I would miss his smile.
