Kabir ran towards the exit and caught hold of Aarohi’s hand before they sat in their car. Aahan turned and punched Kabir on his face

“I already warned you to not touch my sister.” Aahan growled. Kabir hissed slightly.

“Enough bhaiya, I once tolerated you hitting my boyfriend not again” Aarohi pulled her hand out of her brother’s grip.

She quickly started examing Kabir’s face. She cleaned the blood dripping from the corner of his lips

“Sorry, I didn’t knew my brother would react in such a poor way.” Aarohi spoke softly to Kabir

“It’s not your fault, stop blaming yourself for it.” He spoke caressing her face lovingly

“Now, I am sorry. I am not cheating I swear. You are it for me. If you want I can come to your house to ask your hand for marriage. I am that desperate to call you mine in front of the whole world. But please never ignore me like this. We can talk with each other even when we are mad at each other. My first love is you. And it will always BE YOU. I will make it possible in each birth but please don’t leave my hand. You are the only person I want and need at the same time. You don’t have the slightest idea of the feelings I have for you. It’s just 1% I show it to you. But from now on I promise you will get the attention, care and love I have preserved in my heart for 4 years. My heart beats just a single fucking name. AAROHI. MY AARU. These 4 years have been enough test of our love, so how about you marry me and make me your husband MR. AAROHI KABIR RAJVANSH?” Kabir went on his knees and removed a box.

Tears where continuously flowing from both of their eyes. The happiness and love for each other is clear on their faces.

Kabir took out the ring and again asked “ Will you give me the honor of being called your husband?”  Arohi nodded her head furiously while the tears couldn’t stop.

I silently took a picture and looked around to see a crowd has gathered and they are cheering and wishing them

I again looked around and saw Aahan leaving. I looked at the couple and saw them hugging each other. I smiled and towards the direction where he went

“Mr. Sharma, are you not happy that your sister got the man she love?” he stopped but didn’t turn

“They both love each other.” I continued

“Please try to understand, he is not cheating on her.  I never saw Kabir with any girl since he was in NYC.”

“Mam, your boyfriend proposed to my sister and you want me to be happy. How heartbroken she would be when she will find she has been played all along.” Aahan turned and shouted

“Why are you both playing with my sister? What did she do dammit. I couldn’t stop this from happening. This marriage will not happen .”  he continued shouting and moved towards me

“ Are you out of your mind Mr. Sharma?! Kabir is not my boyfriend. And how the hell are you to deny their marriage. They love each other and its their choice.” I said and continued walking

“I am her brother” he shouted and Came closer

“Yes a brother, don’t behave like her father. She is not a child to not understand Kabir’s true feelings.” I shouted and we both came face to face with each other. His face  held anger. Our bodies were very close. I could smell his cologne

“ You are no one to comment on it. I am her brother and I will protect her from everyone including you boss.” He spoke scarastically

My eyes automatically softened.

Brother. Protective. I smiled painfully

“I am sorry.” I spoke and moved backwards

“I didn’t mean that you don’t have right to protect her. You wish well for her I know. I am sorry I overstepped my boundary. Why do you think Kabir is my boyfriend?” I spoke calmly. One has to be with peace to clear the misunderstanding

“Everyone in the office knows.”

“That’s not a reason to believe you know. Those are just rumors.”

“Ohh really mam didn’t Kabir post you on his feed and it created headlines in India?” my eyes widened in shock

“How do you know its me?” I asked calmly while my mind was filled with chaos. If Aahan could identify me then maybe they did too…No they can’t.

“I have seen that bracelet many times on your wrist mam. So explain mam.?

“ What now mam cat caught your tongue? Your lie is exposed that’s why you are tensed right?” he mocked

“Aahan please listen,_” I tried holding his hand. He jerked behind.

“ Any justification left mam? No right, now I will take a leave.” He spoke and turned to leave

“ He is my brother” I spoke softly but enough to be audible to him

He stopped in his tracks and turned

“ Now you have turned him into your so called brother. Muh bola bhai? Seriously? You couldn’t come up with something else? Can I laugh as it was damn funny?” he spoke scarastically

“he is my brother” I repeated.

He laughed out loud

“Mam you are an orphan you don’t have a family. Not even a single person to call yours. And you say now suddenly you got yourself a brother. Woww. I would say quite a compelling story mam. I have to leave or else I would have love to listen to your story.” He turned and started walking away

ORPHAN. FAMILY. MURDERER. DIE

My breathing got heavy.

Calm down.

You are fine. You are fine. Fine. Fine. I chanted in my mind.

You are strong. Stro__

And the world blacked out once again.
