Snowflake Method (Kareena Version)

Chapter 6

Haseena's POV

"Aap yeh nhi karna chahti toh koi baat nhi" I said

I watched my girlfriend's face as closely as possible for any hints about what she might be thinking but I'm coming up blank.

"Hum jante h," she mutters, her face still expressionless.

"But agar aap jana chahti h toh jaa sakti h." I try, only to see if she reacts to the opposite suggestion, but she doesn't.

In my opinion, I think she should.

She's spent too much time away from her father and if this is her chance to reconnect, she should take it.

Just a few seconds ago she hung up the phone with her mother who had passed on the message that Daksh wants to meet with them both.

He specified that it was okay for her to bring me, and for Pushpa ji to bring her boyfriend Richardo, in fact he insisted on it.

This might be the weirdest reunion any of us will ever experience, not including Kashish and I's reunion at that horrid dinner a few months ago, But if it gives Karishma a chance to rekindle a relationship with her dad I don't see why she shouldn't do it.

"Hum nhi decide kar pa rhe h Hassie '' she mumbled, finally looking up to me.

I'm seated across the table from her, since her mom called during dinner, and extended my hand towards her.

She immediately intertwined our fingers as I muttered "Hum pura time apke sath hi rhenge aur apko protect karenge."

"Nhi" she said immediately.

I furrowed my eyebrows "Nhi?"

She looked into my eyes and I could see the tears begin to build up. "Woh- woh hath utha sakte h Haseena aur hum nhi chahte ki woh apko hurt kare. Toh aap ek dam side mein rahenge aur hume protect nhi karenge" she explained.

I let out a breath and nodded slightly.

She's been through so much and it saddens me that these are her instincts.

"Acha hum dhyan rakhenge par aap pareshan mat hona" I say softly.

She nodded and pulled out her phone once more. I'm assuming to text her mother that she'd go.

"Kab jana h?" I asked.

She sighed and looked up to me "Kal"

I nodded taking in this information.

Tomorrow I'd meet Karishma's dad.

The man who emotionally and physically abused her.

The man at fault for her leaving for Mumbai.

The man who abandoned her when she tried to take away her life.

Karishma continued to eat in silence but with these thoughts running through my mind I suddenly lost my appetite. Tomorrow I had to put all of these thoughts aside and be as courteous as possible. At the end of the day he's still her father and I need to get him to like me, or at least tolerate me.

I informed my girlfriend I was no longer hungry and excused myself from the table with a kiss.

I figured I could use a distraction and writing always helps.

Rudra understood Aradhya's fascination with the rooftop. The view was truly enchanting.

"Kafi acha dikh rha h" I said

Karishma jumped slightly looking back at me as she clutched her hand to her chest.

"Hey Shiv Ji!" she muttered. She obviously must have not heard me walk up behind her.

She had made a seat out of a stack of textbooks and I decided to sit beside her on the floor.

"Hi to you too" she said

I smiled and looked up at her "Hello"

"Aap iss wajah se humare sath wakt bitana chaha rhi thi? Hume darane ke liye?" she asked.

I smiled but didn't answer.

Instead I extended my hand and grabbed onto the sketchbook that she had dropped onto her lap and examined her work.

I can't say I know much about this but I have to say it looks beautiful, perfectly depicting every detail of the marvellous view.

"Nhi" I finally answered "But yeh bhi ek bonus tha" I added handing the sketchbook back.

"Hum sach bata rhe yeh bahot achi h" I said.

She shrugged "Thanks. Humne yeh kafi baar banane ki koshish kari h par kabhi santushti nhi hui." she said.

She stood up and removed her textbooks now sitting on the ground beside me.

"Toh, kyu milna chahati thi aap humse, Mrs. Mallik?"

She looked at me with a knowing smile as I watched her.

My heartbeat started speeding up as I bit my lip nervously.

"Sach bole ya jhut?"

She chuckled "Dono"

She nodded slowly "Sach hi bata dete?"

I locked my green eyes on her brown ones and let out a nervous breath.

Hum apko miss kar rhe the

**__**

"Aap ready h?" I asked as I stood beside Karishma on the unfamiliar doorstep.

"Nhi" she answered honestly

I nodded and waited a few seconds before speaking up once more

"Ab?"

She replied by playfully slapping my shoulder as I feigned being in serious pain "Ouch Krish"

This made her smile, which was good.

I'd do anything right about now to relieve her nerves.

"Hum abhi bhi bol rhe h ki agar apko nhi mann h jane ka toh hum abhi bhi wapas jaa sakte h" I informed her "Humne abhi tak door bell nhi ring ki h toh hum abhi bhi ghar jake wine pike chill kar sakte h."

I visibly saw her shoulders relax as she turned to me with a smile.

"Apko yaad h woh raat?"

I couldn't help but giggle like a schoolgirl at the memory, and silently scolded myself for it.

"Of course hume yaad h. In fact kuch din pehle hi hum uss bare mein likh rhe the"

Before she could answer we heard some footsteps from the other side of the door letting us know all the other visitors had already arrived.

I looked at Karishma who was now staring at the door intently, as if the barrier vanished if she stared at it long enough.

I decided we had been here for too long so I brought up my fist and placed it right in front of the door looking at my girlfriend.

She gave me a single nod of approval before I knocked on the door.

Only a few seconds passed before the door swung open and Pushpa ji appeared.

I was glad we were greeted by someone I know so I would have time to mentally prepare for the main attraction, her father.
