Lovestruck

On purpose?

'Are you kidding Ree? why should I leave? since we are here, you are only hurting me..I had hope when I came here, but now I feel totally lost..'

Andrea sobbed while Adhrith looked at her helplessly,

'Andy, I thought that it would be an easy task to talk about us soon, but unexpected things have happened which is out of my hands..I believed that you would understand my situation atleast..'

Adhrith's face showed pure disappointment while Andrea regretted a little,

'If I am staying silent all these days, the reason is you..because I love you so much Ree..' she said looking at him in his eyes while his eyes softened instantly,

'I can feel you Andrea, but think of me as well..I can't take hasty decisions in this, but what my mother did is definitely wrong..I didn't expect her to tell you to leave soon..' his voice turned stern.

'She didn't say it directly but I was able to understand that she was not happy about me staying here..' Andrea looked down while Adhrith sighed.

'Please don't take it seriously..let me talk to her..' he said and was about to leave but Andrea caught his hand and stopped him,

'No don't..I don't want to be the reason for the misunderstanding between you both..' she looked concerned.

'At least let me speak to Thamizhchelvi and Bhairavi who are imagining things..I am dead tired of facing it all..' Adhrith huffed while Andrea nodded her head in denial.

'I agree that they spoke rudely with me, but that was due to the love they have for you..' 

Hearing her, Adhrith huffed.

'Seriously Andy? I thought that you understood about their intentions..I am not ready to encourage that..' 

'Hey, I don't think it is serious..even if it is so, I believe that they wouldn't be a hindrance for our relationship..' she reasoned.

'I am worried about them Andy because they are part of my family...if they got hurt..I will feel guilty for sure..' he looked worried.

'Ree..above all, think what might happen if they revealed about us to the family if you say so..amidst all these hassles, I don't think it is a better idea..'  she said while Adhrith processed about what she said.

'Okay, so what do you want me to do?' he threw his hands in the air furiously.

'Be with your family..help them on Samvrutha's wedding which is gonna happen in just few days..later on we can talk about it..' she said with a smile in order to convince him, which made Adhrith smiled in relief. 

Hearing about Samvrutha, especially her wedding, his eyes got flashed with her thoughtful face which he didn't miss to notice on the day of revelation about her wedding. Then he remembered the way she teased and challenged about her being happy about the whole arrangement and Adhrith instantly regretted for being pity on her.

'That was not going to happen anyhow..let others do..I am not interested at all..' he rolled his eyes while Andrea chuckled.

'I know that you like her..' she said while his heart skipped a beat. He looked at her bewildered as he tried to read her facial expressions while she unexpectedly passed a warm smile, confusing him.

'You are definitely concerned about her and I can see it..I know that you like her in a friendly manner..' she finished while he relieved a breath without his knowledge.

'Uhm, not really..' he dragged while she fake glared at him.

'Now enough of your fake fights..I am tired of hearing all these..' she huffed while he chuckled. Suddenly, her face turned serious like she was dying to ask something from him.
