PriyAnkit - One Shots 🖤

Realizing Love - 2 (last part)

Ankit, Param, and Karan had just landed in Jaipur. As they drove to Pri's house, Ankit stared out the car window, lost in thoughts about Priyanka. The anticipation of seeing Priyanka and the fear of her going away from his life made him anxious.

When they arrived, the house was beautifully decorated with lights and flowers. Ankit felt a pang of disappointment because, somewhere deep in his heart, he had hoped this marriage and everything surrounding it would turn out to be a lie. He couldn't believe Priyanka would do something like this. The lavish decorations seemed like a harsh reminder that Priyanka might be leaving soon. He sat in the car, lost in his thoughts.

Param and Karan got out of the car and saw Ankit still sitting inside, lost in himself.

Param: "Ankit, we've reached..."

He said, placing a hand on Ankit's shoulder. Ankit's trance was broken. He nodded and stepped out, taking a deep breath he trailed behind Param and Karan.

Pri's brother, Yogesh, greeted them warmly and led them to a room where they could freshen up. After freshening up, Param and Karan went to meet everyone, while Ankit felt nervous about meeting Pri after everything that had happened. But he had to do it as he couldn't afford to lose his Pari. He took a deep breath and came outside.

As he descended the stairs, his eyes desperately searched for Priyanka, but she was nowhere to be seen. His gaze fell upon Pri's parents. He approached them with a mix of nervousness and respect, seeking their blessings and engaging in polite conversation. His eyes were continuously searching for Priyanka. Pri's mom noticed this and asked,

Pri's mom: "Ankit, do you need anything?"

Ankit: "Actually, Aunty, where is Priyanka? I haven't seen her anywhere."

Pri's mom: "She must be with her friends. She's been very busy because of the wedding."

Ankit's heart sank a little, but he nodded, trying to steady his emotions. He gave a forced smile and went to search for Pri. Suddenly, he heard Pri's loud laugh, and his steps halted. Hearing Priyanka's laugh, he immediately turned back to see her. His heart skipped a beat seeing Priyanka after such a long time.

It had only been two weeks, but it felt like ages to Ankit. A smile appeared automatically on Ankit's face as he saw Priyanka's happy expression. She was busy applying mehndi with her friends. Unconsciously, he took a few steps toward her, but his smile faded when he saw a handsome guy joining Priyanka. He started applying mehndi to Priyanka's hand, and she was letting him, smiling happily. Ankit clenched his fists, seeing their closeness.

After some time, Ankit saw Priyanka heading towards her room upstairs, and he followed her quietly. Just as she was about to close the door, he pushed it open forcefully. At first, Priyanka was startled and almost shouted, but Ankit covered her mouth with his hand. She was shocked to see Ankit in front of her, unable to believe her eyes. But she quickly came back to her senses and tried to move away. However, Ankit pulled her by the hand, and Priyanka ended up falling onto the bed with Ankit on top of her. She tried to move away, but Ankit tightened his grip. Eventually, she gave up and stopped struggling as Ankit had more strength.

Ankit gently moved her hair away from her face. Feeling his touch after a long time, Priyanka closed her eyes. Ankit noticed the letter "A" on Priyanka's hand and felt a sense of happiness at seeing his name's initial.

Ankit: "What does this 'A' mean?"

Pri: "You don't need to know."

Ankit: "I want to."

Pri: "But I'm not interested in telling you."

Ankit: "Hmm, okay. But tell me why you've been avoiding me and my calls."
