Ishani's POV

I woke up today feeling fresh and loads better. I smile as I stir my smoothie while my mind is stuck on yesterday. It was so damn difficult to not have an emotional breakdown over there. People are overstimulated by nerves, and I was overstimulated by love. I chuckle at the irony. But I think I should get used to this.

I had tried to distract myself all day after the call but even work couldn't get my mind off it. But they had. HE had.

I had felt like shit all day, but from the moment I sat in the car outside my office to the moment I left it to go home, it was like someone had charged my battery. My cold had already announced its arrival and the AC in the car wasn't helping. I was going to turn it off but I remembered our radio argument so I left it. I did not have the strength to argue. But he had shut it off and I had felt warm both outside and inside.

The ride to the mansion was silent. I usually hate silence. Even at home I will play the TV or while sleeping I will keep the window open so that I can hear even the smallest of sounds. But yesterday, that silent ride had provided a different sort of comfort.

When I entered his house and had suddenly felt dizzy, I had very regretfully realised that I hadn't fucking eaten all day. I thought I was used to starvation but ever since the forced starvation stopped, maybe so did my tolerance.

All I was going to do was take a minute to gather myself and then enter. But he was there holding me up and looking at me with such concern and worry that I wanted to fall in his arms and let go. Let go of every thought and emotion that occupied my mind.

The ring he chose for me is so beautiful, I recall with a smile. I never really had any plans about engagement and rings and I was prepared to just choose the cheapest ring for myself and get done with it, but he had chosen so immaculately for me.

I don't know if it was the stupid exhaustion, dehydration or starvation but I had blushed, I had fucking blushed at Avyaan's comment.

Maybe it was all three

Its not like we did anything, but still the teasing and the light atmosphere had made me let go of any image to uphold or a reputation to maintain. I was just ME. Just ISHANI. And I liked it. I liked it so very much. I cannot for the life of me remember when was the last time I had blushed or was affected by teasing.
