Love Unreachable

Chapter - 7

It was around 2 am, I was thirsty and woke up to drink water. While I got up to take the water bottle from the bed stand I noticed a notification pop up on Ashi's phone. It was from a dating app. 'Strange' I thought. 'Why did I not know about it' a voice in my mind screamed.

As I knew her password, I was about to open but then it did not feel right.

I debated about it for a while and decided not to check her phone without her knowing. Not that she would mind but I did not want to invade her privacy. I could ask her directly instead.

So I decided to drink water and go to bed.

I was trying to fall asleep but my mind was filled with thoughts and questions about Ashi and this dating app.

Why had Ashi not told me about this before? Was it a secret?

Did she feel I would judge her about the dating app?

The questions inside my head went on and on.

So I shook my head and told myself not to think too much and decided to listen to music as that would help me to fall asleep.

I turned to Ashi, she was sleeping peacefully next to me and I was happy. I trusted her. If there was anything important she would tell me. I knew that. Maybe this was nothing serious I told myself and tried to sleep.

Even after listening to music my mind did not stop thinking, It started linking all the recent events and then all of a sudden things started falling into place.

I felt it could be someone from the dating app tracking her and giving rose. Right?

She might have told them about the roses she liked. 'Bingo' I thought.

Could she be in trouble and not know anything?

Should I ask her about the app tomorrow?

And that's how my thoughts continued and I could not fall asleep.

To distract myself I unlocked my phone and kept scrolling through Instagram, and finally, I started drifting off to sleep.

I was doing my office work and then I heard a muscular voice whisper my name in my ears. I get goosebumps.

I close my eyes and suck in my breadth. Slowly, muscular hands wrap around my waist and pull me closer so my body is touching his. I let out a moan.

I try to free myself and turn to see who it is. ITS Mr.K. My eyes widen with shock.

He is shirtless. I look around to see where I am. It was my room.

I'm wearing only shorts and a tank top. He has this smirk and slowly comes closer seducing me.

I slowly walked backward and hit a table. He slowly widened my legs and came in between them and leaned forward. I stop breathing. His cologne was intoxicating and I was lost. I try to push him and no use. He leaned even closer and I wanted to scream. No voice. So I close my eyes thinking he will kiss me and grip the table behind me hard. His lips were a finger space away from mine. I bite my lips waiting in anticipation, nothing. I slowly open my eyes to see him smile and I blush.  After a few seconds, he takes a box from the table behind me and brings it between us. It had strawberries in it. He picks one holds it in his mouth and comes to feed me.

I closed my eyes and tried to bite them but I heard loud music and my eyes wide open to the music.

It was 6 am and as usual, Ashi's loud alarm had woke me up. My earplugs were still in my ears playing Arjith Singh's songs. I took them out and kept them aside. I was sweating like a pig and remembered my dream too well.
