He makes my heart flutter!💓

Renukha

The day before Kannagi sister's marriage it was! Many relatives have occupied the house today from the morning itself. Instead of speaking with them, I was gawking at my Karthik who was laboring outside to build the stage for the evening function in which the groom's side would bring the marriage saree, cosmetics, fruits, etc...

As the twilight neared, everyone were scrambling here and there and more of our relatives flooded the house. Meanwhile, I jolted to Kannagi sister's room and wore my blue sky-colored half saree. Karthik will definitely like it!! My inner self got enthusiastic and I commenced to groom myself.

I applied eyeliner, a bindi, and tinted my lips with bright pink lipstick. The beautician who was coating makeup on Kannagi sister also quit at the exact instant. She looked fantastic. Just like a bride!!

A few moments later, she was made to go to the stage. On the other hand, I was in dire exploration of Karthik. The environment was bustling here. Some known faces, some unfamiliar faces, a bunch of girls, a group of boys... cameraman, his assistants, etc...

But where's my Karthik??

I can't discover him anywhere...did he go out or something? I wanted to call him but I don't wish to disturb him as well. So I refrained myself from doing that.

Momentarily, the females from the groom's side came with platters, stuffed with the already-mentioned items.

Only then did I fetch a glimpse of my Karthik. He was sauntering towards the back of the house where the spot for catering service was arranged.

I hurried behind him and eventually acquired closer to his back and touched his arms. He glanced me over his shoulder. "Not now Renu, I'm really busy.." He reacted without reluctance and meandered off.

I sighed, halting in my tracks and checking him out as If he was a walking golden statue.

His black shirt with white slacks is just deteriorating my miserable heart!!

For the next few minutes, I wandered here and there, greeting some of our relatives and smiling at them. Then I got bored. Kannagi sister was being tortured by the cameraman to give poses and I chuckled to myself at the helplessness on her face.

Humming to myself, I entered the house and went upstairs to pick up my phone. To my surprise, Karthik came out of his room concurrently.

But deeming that he would be engaged with some work, I did not say anything and just calmly intruded into my room.

While I was looking for my phone in the bed, I heeded the door open and shut. Confused, I stared behind and found Karthik...

I was quite stupefied. But also pleased!

"Are you free now??" I turned to him and asked cheerfully. "Not really but...kind of, I have to retreat soon though" I nodded understandingly.

"Then tell me fastly, how do I look in this saree?" I twirled myself and grinned at him. Instead of replying, he strolled towards me.

I perked up at him, dubiously. "You don't like this color?" I questioned gloomily at his lack of response.

"I love it...but I am more attracted to the pink color than the sky blue" I blinked at his words. "What pink colo- before I could finish, pair of lips landed on mine.

I fisted my hands and secured my eyes, astounded by his abrupt action. My first kiss...it was toe-curling.

Karthik's hands are cushioning both my cheeks as he tilted his head and sucked my lips into his mouth. I squirmed at the taste of these exotic feelings thronging in my brain.

Our heads were shifting along, syncing with the efforts of our lips. I tried to reciprocate the kiss as best as I could. While maintaining the kiss, Karthik's one hand clasped my hair, and the other trailed down, spiraling itself around the bare skin on my waist.

It further intensified my pleasure and I quivered like a feeble feather wrecked by the wind.

Karthik chewed on my lower lip and licked the upper one, and then again started up to move his lips over mine, passionately...

By now, my legs were non-existent and so does my sane mind. The next effect was on my lungs which are in desperate desire of oxygen.

I pushed Karthik's chest and he instantly left my lips. Just then, we heard footsteps approaching, and Karthik quickly vacated after placing a peck on my lips again.

I was panting heavily, and gulping hard, not believing the moment. We just kissed!

My lips are still throbbing as the aftermath of the kiss...

Unexpectedly, Kannagi sister came in and I confided in a daze "Akka, I just had my first kiss..." But she scolded and lectured me for allowing that to happen.

Even when I strived to reason with her, she stood rigid on her ground. I sighed and looked down.

"Look Renu, all these may appear tempting to you now. But at the present moment of your life, your focus should be on your studies and looking after your career. Don't give into these things at the age where you don't have enough maturity. You might think you are mature enough, but you are not. Renu, I don't want you to have any regrets in the future" Kannagi'si sister cupped my cheeks and mumbled. I nodded at her.

But I don't know If I can follow her words.
