Obscure Truth

12. Pookie

"darta jahaan humse
hum tose darte
ee sab jaane mori raniyaa"

Avyaansh's pov:-

Right now, I'm over the moon. Having her in my arms, I could only think of it in my dreams but now I'm living it. She is actually my dream come true.

When she said about the love she never experienced, it did hurt me thinking about all the haunting memories little Noor had been through but now it's us. Never ever in my worst dreams I'll leave her to cry alone.

"Toh ab what are we? Girlfriend-boyfriend?" Noor's voice pulled me out of my trance. "Uska department aapka hai. I just know ki hum aapke hai aur aap humari." I said looking into her eyes. A deep red colour covered her cheeks. She looks cute while blushing.

"Avyaansh yaarrr" she said blushiand pushed her head into my chest. My laugh resonated through the air.

She looked up at me. "Ab sab thik hoga n?" She asked looking like a small baby. "Jitni sundar aapki sapno ki duniya hai usse bhi behtar hoga." I assured her.

We sat in each other embrace in silence. Sukoon it was.

"Lekin tum lagte nahi ho yaar ye first sight wale types. Actually tum ye feelings wale hi nahi lagte harr time shakal sada kar ghumte rehte ho." She said startling me. What did she mean shakal sada kar I mean yes I keep my serious face on everytime but she can say that a little politely too.

"Kaise lagte hai hum fir?" I asked wanting to talk more.

"Tum dikhte aise ho jaise you hate human presence uss din bhi office mein aise baat krre the apne staff se but you're different when you're with me. You are pookie." She said making me raise my eyebrows in amusement.

"What's pookie?" I asked her making her gasp. Itna konsa bada word hai ye jo inka aisa reaction aa raha hai.

"Tumhe pookie nahi pata?? Well anyways pookie means cutie samajhlo." She said dramatically. What?? Cute??? Aur mai??? She needs an eye checkup.

"Oh hello I'm anything but cute. I'm hot and sexy. Cute toh bilkul nahi. Get your eyes checked Miss." I said being offensive.

"What do you mean get your eyes check? Are you calling me blind?" She asked getting angry.

"Aree aree aap toh turant hi girlfriend wale mode par aagyi. Hum cute hi hai sahi keh rahi hai aap." I said hurriedly not wanting her to get angry. She just nodded still being unsure about my words.

They soon left the place. Avyaansh dropped Noor at her apartment and left for his place.

Avyaansh's pov:-

While driving towards my house, I was very happy but soon adapted my serious look not wanting to portray myself as lover boy in front of my family.

I entered into the house and saw everyone sitting in the hall with serious look plastered on their faces.

"Avi, come sit here." Dada said  pointing towards the seat beside him. I obliged him and sat there.

"Mr. Mehra called today. He wants you to marry his daughter." Dad said making me look them in disbelief. We recently talked about this and here we are discussing this again.

"But-" "Aree toh atleast meet her. Befriend her. We can wait for you guys to get married but atleast show interest in someone." I started but Mom cut me off.

"I think he's gay." Abhay suddenly said gaining everyone's attention. Younger ones started coughing on hearing him but older ones had an horror stricken reaction on their faces.

"WHATTTT???" Mom said still trying to process it but Annika said it as it was funny.

"Abhay, If you have a lot of free time to think this rubbish, start coming to office then." I said in a terrifying tone.

"No bhai sa, I mean I am sorry." He replied but I could still see mischief in his eyes.

"And no Mom this is not true." I said making everyone relief.

"Then what is the problem." Chachi said dramatically. These overactors in my family will kill me one day.

"Earlier I said no because I wasn't ready but right now I'm saying no because I like someone but I don't want to jump to that level directly." I said calmly.

"WHATTTTTTTT??????" My whole family shouted tearing my eardrums.

"How?"

"When?"

"Where?"

"Who?"

"Really?"

"Seriously?"

"WHY?"

We all turned towards Abhay listening his why.

"Are you serious Abhay?? What do you mean why?" Aadit said smacking his head.

"I mean he's so rude bechari lad- ahhh!" Abhay started but screamed when a pillow hit his head. Of course thrown by me.

"Abhay shut up let Avyaansh speak." My Chachu said making him pout. Ewww. Chachu looked at me gesturing me to continue.

"Okay toh I recently met a girl and I like her." I said as casually as possible.

"And what about her? She likes you too?" Mom asked me.

"Yes we confessed our feelings today only." I said making everyone smile.

"Yayyyyyyyy it's shaadi time." Annika said being overexcited. "No it's not." I replied killing her excitement.

"Come on guys we've known each other for just a month. Let her be comfortable with all this. And now no more discussion that's it." I said and made my way towards my room.

I could hear my family talking about how can I like someone. Rude hu yarrr, rakshas nahi hu.

Ask the people you tortured. My subconscious mocked.

After changing I lied on my bed thinking about my precious one, My Noor.
