It's raining & I immediately run out of the ceremony to the main corridor, until someone hold my hand from the back and pulls me towards his chest. It's Rahul.
I look into his eyes. His deep blue eyes, saw straight into someone's soul.
“is everything ok ?” he asks softly “yes absolutely, why ?” i answer him with a rage in my voice even though i know it's not his or anyone else's mistake, it's only about me, i am the one living with my own lovestory. Why would he wait for someone he doesn't even know, who is not even of his age and not only him, why would a wise man remain unmarried in his 40s.
“No i asked casually as i saw you running out so i thought you needed some help.” he says. “ I am completely fine , You better go inside , your wife would be waiting & i wouldn't like someone getting wet in the rain because of me.” i feel concerned about him. “Let's go inside then, you are not a statue , you are getting wet too.”
I don't wanna go inside, make myself more uncomfortable by watching him & his better half.
“Actually i am feeling dizzy & wanna to go home and relax”. I try to make an excuse which i am really bad at.
“Ok so lemme drop you”
“And what about your wife? She'll go alone? ” i ask him ironically.
“No i will ask her to join.”
“Not a good idea , i can drive”
by saying this i start to move while he instantly pulls me towards him, my face on his big chest , i can hear his heartbeat. I move my face and our eyes meet. He whispers in my ears with his warm voice “how will you drive in dizziness? hmm. I said I will drop you.”
I don't have the dare to say no for two reasons. Firstly it's raining and he is so wet that most likely to get a viral & secondly we are so close that I can feel his breathe to my whole body. 
I don't say anything and nods.
He asks me to wait in the lobby area & dry myself until he calls his wife. It's feels so damn awkward to wait for your crush's wife so that he can drop you home & specially when your age doesn't match , her thinking would be quite different from mine , maybe more mature than mine.

(In the lobby area)

I dry myself & sit in the sofa waiting while i hear the sound of heels from the door.
There's a beautiful lady at the door with honey blonde hair & black bodycon dress showing her slim bodycut. Black heels, pearl necklace & gold bracelet. Her face is white as snow & jawline as sharp as knife as if a princess is walking towards me. “Hi , Do you know Dr.Diana ?” Her voice is soft as silk. “Yes, I am Diana. You ?”
“Oh Hi, i am Dr.Alysa Catherine Sharma , Senior Gynaecologist & wife of Dr.Rahul Sharma.”
It's obvious why he married her. She is both talented & beautiful nobody would deny marrying someone like her. She made me feel nothing in front of her. 
“Hi, i am Dr.Diana Cardio thoracic surgeon in Newtech Superspeciality.”
Ya i saw you receiving the award , Congratulations by the way”
I thank her for the sweet gesture.
“So my husband told me that you'll join us tonight”
What do he mean by i will join them as if it's my choice! i don't want to be a third wheel between a husband and a wife. I know why he said this to her , because ofcourse he don't wanna show his wife that he asked a girl to join them. “Yes actually it's raining and i am not well , feeling dizzy , so he said he'll drop me.” i tried to cover him a little with my words.
“Why not , why not it's good to help a needy, and he always has a tendency to help anyone even though he or she is a stranger.” she sounds a lil rude here as if i am the one dieng for his help.
I keep my lips shut and walk behind her towards the car.
Rahul is already waiting inside car.
I stand while Alysa go & take the passenger seat , then I sit behind them in the  backseat and the car starts to move.
