My Heart Snatcher 💖

Chapter-40

The sweet chirping of birds made their way to Avni's ear. She opened her eyes only to witnesses the warm sunrays beaming through the curtains. She took a long yawn before getting up from the bed.

"Oh I am still feeling tired.. I couldn't sleep properly last night..." She mumbled while tieing her hair into a messy bun when she remembered the incident of the last night.

She immediately turned her head getting anxious but got relived when found the other side of the bed empty.

"Ahh..... He is not hare... But where does he go this early?" She mumbled.

"But why do I care.... Remember last night what he said..... "

I want to kiss you Avni......" She repeated his words while still feeling breathless.

"Why even he said that? He sounded so serious as if he really meant that..... I was so shocked. If he hadn't told me that he was just teasing me, I was gonna get a heart attack for sure. Imagine Vikrant kissing me...." She said and chuckled but as she imagined that scene in her head, blood rushed towards her cheeks and and she couldn't refrain herself from feeling something ticklish inside her heart.

Sh*t..... What am I thinking? This is never gonna happen. Vikrant and me... Never...." She said to herself.

"But something is definitely changing between us. This devil never misses a chance to surprise me. With every passing day I witness a new Vikrant. He is more than arrogant and heartless devil. When he told me that no one is allowed to disrespect me., I could feel the sincerity in his each word...." She said and smiled remembering it just then someone knocked at the door and broke her chain of thoughts.

"Urggghhh......again I started thinking about him. Vikrant and me.....no way..... ." She said while brushing off all her thoughts and went towards the door to open it.

"Di, why are you sleeping till now, come Dadi was asking for you...." Bulbul said.

"Sorry Bulbul.... Just give me ten minutes...." She said and rushed towards the washroom to freshn up.

As Avni came down her eyes were searching for Vikrant but he was not there as well.

"Di.... If you are looking for jiju, then let me tell you he is not at home.... "Bulbul whispered in her ear while giggling.

"Me... No... I am not looking for him...." Avni replied in a low voice as she felt getting caught.

"Oh... My dear Di.... Stop pretending... He is your husband. You have all the rights to know his whereabouts..." Bulbul whispered while teasing her.

"Well, I don't want to know anything. It's his life. He can go wherever he wants...." Avni replied showing her fake anger.

"What happened Avni , you are looking tensed.... Suddenly her mother asked.

"Nothing ma... Just feeling tired...." She replied while having a bite of slice.

"This is not good. You are the bride. You have to look good and refreshing on the reception... Humn..I  know what you need..." Her mother said and after breakfast took her to her room.

"Wow Ma..... It feels so good... My eyelids are getting heavy . It's so relaxing.... Your hands always do magic while massaging..." Avni praised her mother and yawned feeling sleepy and her mother kissed her forehead while caressing her hair.

"Tomorrow is a big day Avni. I still can't believe my little girl is married and tomorrow is her reception. It's like yesterday when you were born and enlightened our lives with your existence..." Her mother said and while recalling that day.
