Ruhanika pov

I was feeling relaxed that Ekansh didn't ask me anything about my past but he himself was zoning out since the phone call ...

" What happened...you seem disturbed after the phone call ? " I asked him

He shrugged and smiled at me

" Nothing.. just some business related issues. You should rest . ." he said stopping the car at entrance of house .

We both went inside only to see Rohan playing video game in living room ..

" You both are back ..well I made Ruhi sleep ..so you guys can rest without any worry " Rohan said

" You should go to sleep too " Ekansh said removing his tie and loosening his coat button..

" Hmm good night Bhai and Ruhanika Bhabhi " he said winking at us making me chuckled...

" Umm .. thankyou for today -

I said as i saw Ekansh going upstairs.but he stopped and look at me

" Thanks is not enough..I need you to tell me about your past .. " he said coming close to me

I don't want him to hate me . He doesn't love me but it's fine but I can't tolerate if everyone here also started to hate me what if he separate me from ruhi too ...no I need to let this go ... I can't tell him atleast not now

" Ekansh it -it would take hours to explain -

"Then i would listen to you for hours " he said making me nervous .

" Ekansh I can't -

Before i could say something his finger meet my lips ...

"Take your time Ruhanika.. but I want to assure you about one thing i don't care about your past. I still do not but what I see today is telling me your past is disturbing your present and your present is me . And Ekansh Malohtra wife only deserve happiness ...and if something is bothering her it's my responsibility to erase the reason .. " he said

My heart which is as cold as ice glacier immune to hatred words ..i could practically feel melting it ... But words are always not meant to be true that's the one thing i learned from my past ....

" Saying is easy ..you will hate me -

" I could never Ruhanika maybe at some point i found you irritating but hate is not something which i would ever feel for you .. a girl who is giving selfless love to my family i could never hate her infact I will always be grateful to you .. it's ok take your time . I know trust is not something which I can give you by words ..by time i will try to earn it . But if you ever feel like crying or sharing i swear I will not ask may single question to you ..." He said

" You said don't expect anything from me ..then why are you giving me opportunity to expect something from you ?? " I asked controlling my tears which could flash anytime...

" I never said don't expect anything from me ... All i said is I will give you respect, I will trust you but only thing I can't give you is -

" Love ..." I said as a chuckled leave my mouth...

" Ruhanika i-

" No it's fine infact we are better as friends i think... Love isn't something which could ever come between us and also it will make things awkward, right ??" I said
