Chand Sifaarish

CHAPTER 5 ~ Decieval

******Adira pov*****

"So that you confess."

I can't believe my ears. He is lying, isn't he? After all these years, the one thing I've regretted is false?! I've always regretted falling for him because in the end it seemed as if he was a red flag. After all those incidents I couldn't bring myself to admit that he was him. I couldn't accept he did that. It was not like him. I always told myself that he is not the one I'm looking for. He isn't the one I desire. He isn't the one I love...... But my heart never accepted what it was told. It always protested against the outer thoughts. That inner voice made me keep loving him even after all that. Maybe because my inner self already knew that he was not what he was shown. He was someone that I loved. He was mine. He was meant to be mine. Maybe it did know all that.

But still what is the chance that he's still saying the truth? He could be lying just as he did in the past.. He could be just trying to sway me.

"I know you don't believe me. After all you shouldn't. After what I did.."

My inner thoughts were interrupted by his words, which seemed as a disbelief to me. I can't fall this time. No please... he can't be good. He can't be the one I imagined him to be. He is who he is. He is who I thought to be, who I witnessed to be.

*knock!! Knock!!*

Someone's knocking on the door. I've to go see.
After glancing at Abhishek for a while, i went to open the door.
As expected, it is my parents along with Mr and Mrs Singh with those big round eyes looking at us. Even though they were trying their best to keep their patience, i could tell by their faces that they are too eager to look for an answer. And they can't bear anymore delay now....Of course.

"I guess you two have talked.."
Mom said while twitching her eyes. Gosh!! she needs to stop this now. She is a grown up.. but i just say she looks cute while doing so. And that's why my dad fell for her. For her cuteness. Hehehe...
"Tell me!! What do you both say?!" She asked once again with even more of her bossy accent that she acquired by her mommy work.. I kept staring at her the whole time now so she is quite pissed off not for getting an answer.(I can tell )

"Adira!! Mera muh kya dekh rahi ho? Jawaab do!!!Abhishek beta, tum batao. He maharani toh apne khayalon me dubi hai.."

(Adira!! Why are you staring at my face.? Abhishek you tell me. This queen is lost in her fantasy world.)

Mom!! how could you embarrass me like that in front of abhishek?!!forget it.. I'm already embarrassed in front of him. This won't make any further difference.
