Undeniably Yours

"Abhi are you free tomorrow?" Khushi asked her son who was working on his laptop.

Abhi nodded his head and asked his mom what she want.

"Srisha is going to her college tomorrow, to fill the admission papers and complete the formalities. So I told them that you will accompany them. Is it okay?"

Abhi refrained himself from smiling like a silly teenager and simply nodded. As if he is not interested to go but because of Khushi, he will accompany Srisha.

"Mom, if bhaiya don't want to go, I will go with bhabhi. We will also go to shopping and lunch. A proper girl's outing!" Aru grinned, jumping on the couch where abhi was sitting.

He threw a sharp glare at his sister before turning his face to Khushi. "It's okay mom. I'll go. And Aru, don't you have your homework to do? You keep sitting like a buffalo or jump like a monkey throughout the day. Go and do your homework or I will complaint to your teacher."

"I'm not in school anymore that you will complaint to my teacher." Aru huffed and went to her room, cursing her brother.

"I'm telling you mom, don't trust dad with aru anymore. He keeps spoiling her and never scold her. She should be responsible now!" Abhi told Khushi who gave him a boring look.

"I have stopped telling your father anything regarding this. He does what he wants. For him, Aru can never be wrong. Last month, her principal called and said--uhmm" Khushi was telling something to Abhi when Aru came and stopped Khushi by dragging her with herself.

"You are not supposed to tell him anything. He will scold me then." Aru pouted.

The next day, Abhi went to Srisha's house to pick her up. He pressed the door bell and Srisha's aunt opened the door.

She smiled and welcomed him in.

"It's okay aunty, if Srisha is ready then we will directly leave." The lady nodded and called Srisha out.

Wearing a pink kurti with white bottoms and dupatta, she looked beautiful. Abhi smiled at her and the two came to his car.

"How have you been?" He asked to kill the silence between them.

"Good. You?"

"Now that I'm with you, I'm more than good." He looked at her and grinned when her cheeks blushed with red hue.

Her lips curled up slightly at his small attempt to flirt with her. He took her hand in his and escorted till the car. He waited for a minute so that she can lock the seatbelt.

When she didn't, he came forward and looked deep in her eyes. His breath fanned her and she forgot how to breathe properly.

"Abhi.. " She said meekly.

"Shree.. " He said with equal intensity and locked the belt. He kissed her cheek before going back to his seat.

The kiss was unexpected for Srisha. Her eyes widened at his bold move. Abhi chuckled at this and took his hand in hers.

"It's okay. We're allowed to do this... And much more. " Abhi teased and Srisha blushed, seeing outside.

Abhi started the car and drove to her college.

After all the work was done, Abhi decided to spend some more time with Srisha as it was only two in the evening. So he started taking her to a restaurant.

Srisha was looking outside when she noticed a fare. She jumped in her place and pulled Abhi's shirt, making him stop the car immediately.

"What happened? " He asked, taken aback of her sudden move. But she just smiled at him dreamily before asking him to park the car. "Now what? "

Srisha pointed to the fare and without waiting for him, she came out of the car and started crossing the road. She did not notice the trucks and was just walking to the fare.

A truck advanced towards her and as she realised it, her legs were frozen. She got numb. She thought she is gone now.

But she was pulled back to a firm chest and two hands were wrapped around her. She looked up to see it was Abhi.

"Are you mad, Shree? If you don't know how to cross the road then wait for me. What if that truck just... " Abhi trailed off angrily and just held her wrist, making her cross the road.

Tears filled her eyes as she realised how badly Abhi had shouted at her. But since he was right,  she just followed his lead. Trying to hold back her tears.

"You wanted to go in this fare only right? Go now. You don't need to play with your life just for a fare. " Abhi again scolded her.

"I know how to cross the road. " Srisha sniffed. "But I was just too excited seeing the fare. I never visited any fare because Chacha chachi didn't allow it. So I thought I can go there with you. I'm sorry, let's go back. But please don't be angry. "

Her innocence melted his anger quickly and he just took her in a hug, running his fingers in her hair.

"We will definitely go to the fare, you don't need to be sorry. I was just angry because you might have been hurt by that truck because of your carelessness. Next time, always wait for me.

I won't deny your wishes but follow them like a command. Just take care of yourself, that's all I will ever need. " He kissed her head and she nodded.

"Can we go now? " Abhi chuckled at her and nodded.

He took her hand in his and started walking to the fare. It was a crowdy area so Abhi instructed Srisha to not leave his hand.

"Wow, this is so exciting. All the things are so affordable. And look at this, I want to sit at this giant wheel. Please Abhi. "She looked at him with her puppy eyes and he acted as if he was thinking.

" Pretty please? " She requested again.

"Okay but only if you give me a kiss. "
