The Unintentional Hit

The Keeper of His Heart

Aravi's POV

Even in the dreams I haven't thought that I will fall in love with someone I disliked once.
I haven't thought that he will like a simple girl like me who knows nothing but lives in her own delusion.

Oh my God.. the words I once wrote, like ‘butterflies inside me’ is actually happening with me too..

We kissed each other with our complete sense, with consent not like our first time.

Should I text him a Good night wish?

My chain of thoughts broke when my phone buzzed up with a message.

Don't think about me...
But I won't mind if you do...think about me now... in your dreams.. in your bed...

His message got me off-guard made my cheeks enough hot that I feel it's red now.

Next day i woke up and after getting ready , I went downstairs but when I should find a warm get together, i found everyone silent and gathered in the living room.

Ahana was standing distant from Yash and my father was tensed, my mother was tensed too.. Rayan's parents looked tensed infact every one looked tensed.

It was that silent that when I took a step, the movement of my anklets made everyone aware of my presence.

“ARAVI!?”  My mother gasps ..

My brain sensing something wrong at the scenario which is related to me.

“Kya-kya hua?” I whispered looking at Ahana.

“What happened to you all?” I asked again.

My mother wipes her eyes as if she's crying.
“im your mother for God sake.. Aravi...you even didn't told me...?” She turned her face against me.

All of their tensed faces made me anxious.
“Mumma? Maine aapko kya nahi bataya?” I asked.

I turn my face as I find a firm hand on my shoulder. It was Mrs Mathur, Rayan's mother.

“Beta.. you should have told us”

I blinked my face with confusion along with the anxious feeling getting on my nerve.

“Naive girl!! You didn't tell us? Who's the keeper of your heart!” She broke the silence and everyone broke into laughter as if they tried hard to hold it. “

I was just about to process their words when Ahana spoke up.

So the keeper of your heart himself had to say us that he loves you.. Bechare mere hone waale jethji ..”

My heart skipped a beat, my cheeks becoming hot.. as i realised what they are talking about.

I flinch when I felt a hand around my waist.
I turned back only to get pulled by him bumping myself with his hard chest.

“Aajkal tere mere pyaar ke charche har jubaan par
Sabko maloom hain sabko khabar ho gayi”

He sang the lyrics making me flustered more than before.

“So the hopeless romantic author got a boyfriend too...” Ahana teases me only to recieve a flying pillow from me.

I pull back myself from him and went to my parents who were pressing their giggles looking at us before glaring at him who just shrugged his shoulders at his defence.
