Eda's pov:
I am looking at them eagerly waiting for an answer. What does she mean by that? She don't know about her mother? Is she dead or just left them?
"Tell me papa"
"She is a great cook baby" He said rubbing daisy's cheeks
"Eda come let's go" Krishna sighed, it's like he is relived at what aditya just said. I nodded and followed him out.
"I don't like what you are doing eda"
"I know"
"Think about viraj,eda"
"Don't tell him or anybody" I lay my head on window
"Please lower the window" This mumbai busy nights always fill me with wonder and just like that it distracted me for a while but again her words roared in my head while I am taking a bath.
The more I am getting closer to them the more I am being restless, it's not my place to pry in their business but why is he being guarded about those topics?
I walked out of my ensuite drying my hair
"Eda" I turned back startled, viraj is at the door looking gobsmacked at me
"Uh sorry I thought you um I will be downstairs" He left like his tail got on fire.
Again I got a situation to solve. Now what does he wants? Can't people give me some peace. Dressing up in some pyjamas I left to talk to him.
"Hey want something to eat or drink?" I walked into kitchen asking him on my way
"No I am good just some water please" I heard him and took out a water bottle for him
"Here" I passed him the bottle
"What is it" I sat across him in a bean bag. I am literally seconds away from falling sleep.
"Are you tired?" He asked feeling concerned for me I chuckled
"Why are you laughing babe?"
"It's eleven thirty at night viraj and I am working since morning ofcourse I am so tired" A yawn escaped my lips.
"Yes I uh just wanted to talk to you eda"
"What is it?" I sat straight placing right palm under my chin.
"It's been two weeks and I just wanna spend some time with you" He moved forward in couch and cupped my cheeks, he looks so vulnerable.
"What happened viraj?" I placed my hands over his.
"Just hold me eda please" I got up from the bean bag and sat beside him on couch. He placed his head in my neck. I closed eyes at the den of iniquity flowing in my blood. Isn't this what I wanted, a trustworthy man beside me, to take care of me, to give me the time I needed and space I wanted.
Why am I behaving like a bitch, like every other naive girl. Didn't I learn my lesson already? He is not good for me in all ways and yet I am feeling something for him. I should stop feeling this way for krishna, whatever it is the attraction or grief I should stop them. I can't be selfish, I am hurting both viraj and I in this while that bastard is happy.
One way or other viraj always been there for me.
Five years back when I divulge viraj about my relationship with krishna, he asked what if that boyfriend of mine cheats on me Or lie to me
I dumbly defended krishna back them being so madly in love with him and what happened? viraj was right, I got cheated on and I did nothing. I cried to let the pain go, that's it. Only I suffered in that relationship while he was happy with his wife and daughter.
