Crossed Paths

Chapter 21:- Abhimanyu-Aarohi Come Closer!!!!

The next day, sunrays hit Birla Mansion. One couple was sleeping, hugging each other. As Abhimanyu's eyes opened, he saw Aarohi hugging him while sleeping. He was mesmerized just looking at her. He saw her waking up and quickly closed his eyes.

Aarohi wakes up and looks at her position. She tries to get up from Abhimanyu, but Abhimanyu holds her waist and pulls her closer. She lands on his chest, and she can clearly hear his heartbeat.

Aarohi looks at Abhimanyu.

"He is so cute," Aarohi said. Abhimanyu heard her.

Aarohi traces her hand on his face, and Abhimanyu was trying to control his expressions. He pulled her even closer.

"I know you aren't asleep," Aarohi said in Abhimanyu's ear, giving him shivers.

Abhimanyu opened his eyes and looked at Aarohi. Aarohi came closer to him, her face facing Abhimanyu's, their lips inches apart. Abhimanyu was feeling nervous. He leaned in to kiss her, but...

"Abhimanyu, wake up! It's 9 am. Don't you have to go to the office?" Aarohi said in a high tone, and Abhimanyu woke up.

"Was it a dream? But a beautiful one. I wish she loved me," Abhimanyu thought to himself.

"Abhimanyu, where are you lost?" Aarohi said, breaking Abhimanyu's thoughts.

"Nowhere, but why are you standing? The doctor asked you to take complete bed rest. And you are also a doctor; you should know that," Abhimanyu scolded her.

"I am sorry for that, but bed rest is the most boring thing one could do. By the way, I was going to get ready. What about you? Do you have to go to the office or not?" Aarohi questioned him.

"No, I don't have to go. Until you are not well, I will be with you only," Abhimanyu said calmly.

"But what about your work?" Aarohi questioned.

"Don't worry about it, just go with the flow," Abhimanyu said.

Aarohi went to the restroom to get ready. Abhimanyu was roaming in the room. Suddenly, the glass of water fell from his hand. He was about to clean it when he heard Aarohi's voice.

"Abhimanyu, I left my clothes on the bed. Can you please give them?" Aarohi asked with a pleading tone.

Abhimanyu gave her clothes just as Aarohi came out. He was just looking at her. Aarohi was moving further and was about to step on a glass piece, but before that, Abhimanyu lifted her with one hand around her waist. Aarohi felt shivers down her spine as his cold hands touched her bare waist.

They were intensely close. Aarohi's hand was around Abhimanyu's neck, whereas Abhimanyu's both hands were on her bare waist. Abhimanyu leaned forward to kiss Aarohi, but Aarohi held Abhimanyu's hair and smashed her lips on his. Abhimanyu was shocked by this sudden kiss. They both kissed each other passionately, and as they were longing for each other, after 15 minutes, they both broke the kiss due to a lack of oxygen. Aarohi was blushing hard, and Abhimanyu could see that. He bent to his knees and took out a ring from his pocket. The room was filled with silence for a minute. Aarohi was sitting on the bed, and Abhimanyu was in front of her.

After a pause, Abhimanyu spoke, "Aarohi, I don't know... I don't know since when I have developed feelings for you."

Aarohi was about to speak in the middle, but he asked her to keep quiet for a minute.

Abhimanyu continued, "You are like a lantern who has brought brightness into my life. After that accident, you are the one who has brought happiness into my life. I love the way you are, your attitude, your straightforwardness. You are just perfect, and I respect you. Also, to handle a family like yours is not easy at all. But you have been living with them, and not even 1% of you is like them. I love you, Aarohi Goenka. I love you very much, Aarohi Abhimanyu Birla," Abhimanyu said with all the emotions within him.

Aarohi, who saw the emotions in Abhimanyu's eyes, was very happy. She immediately hugged Abhimanyu.

She took a pause and replied, "I also love you, Abhimanyu Birla. I love you very much."

They were both very happy in each other's embrace.

Aarohi's POV:

I didn't know, but when I also developed feelings for Abhimanyu, I knew he loved his first wife a lot. But I didn't know that I could also be loved. When Abhimanyu confessed his feelings, I was the happiest. Thank you so much, God, for giving Abhimanyu in my life. I am really blessed. The love I longed for, I have found. I love him very much, and now I won't be able to live without him.

Abhimanyu's POV:

Thank God, Aarohi also loves me. I love her very much. I have developed feelings for her since I started to know her, and now I won't be able to live without her. It is impossible for me to live without her now. I can't lose her in my life. Thanks, God, for bringing Aarohi into my life. Thank you so much.

After expressing each other's feelings, they both went to the dining table to have breakfast.

"Abhimanyu, Aarohi, we are going to a relative's wedding. Will you both join?" Harsh questioned.

"No, Papa, actually Aarohi isn't well, so we both won't be joining," Abhimanyu said.

All agreed with them, and they informed that they all would be leaving in the evening. Abhimanyu was looking at Aarohi with a smirk, whereas Aarohi was blushing.

In the evening, everyone left, and only Abhimanyu and Aarohi were present in the house. Aarohi was going to cook food in the kitchen, but Abhimanyu came, picked her up, and made her sit on the slab.

Aarohi wraps her hand around Abhimanyu's neck.

"Mrs. Birla, I have told you multiple times to take rest," Abhimanyu said with concern.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Birla," Aarohi replied.

Aarohi kissed Abhimanyu on his lips. At first, Abhimanyu was shocked, but after a while, he also responded. The kiss was full of passion, longing, and a sense of love for each other. They both let go of each other when they were out of breath. Abhimanyu started giving open-mouth kisses on her neck. He was kissing her passionately while Aarohi was just moaning. He left multiple hickeys on her neck, and both of them were just enjoying the moment.
