KGF

Chapter - 37

Morning sunlight streamed through the window as Rocky slowly opened his eyes. His head felt heavy and the memories from the night before came rushing back. He felt a soft hand in his turned his head to find Aaria, sleeping, her head resting against bed headboard.

He stared at her for a moment, a mixture of emotions swirling within him. Part of him was surprised, and touched that she had stayed by his side all night...he knows one thing very well No matter what Aaira can never be angry with him for so long.

He looked down at her hand, still held in his grip, and gently lifted it, his fingers tracing the lines on her palm...as he looked at her so peaceful and Beautiful.

Aaira slowly opened her eyes by the  movement.

As Their eyes met, and for a moment, neither of them spoke. There was a strange vulnerability in the air as they sat there, neither wanting to be the first one to break the silence.

Aaira looked down as she took her hand back and immediately turn to Other side Tieing her hair.

Rocky watched her, a pang of hurt coursing through him.
“I haven't asked you to stay???.”

Aaria froze for a moment, her head still turned away from him. She didn’t know what to say, what to do. But at his words, she found herself turning back to look at him, guilt and hurt swirling in her gaze.

“Don't think too much I helped you last night because I don’t want you to Die because of me...if something would happened to you what would I told Reena In Afterlife”

Rocky's Chuckled shaking his head.
“So you helped me last night out of guilt... but you could have left after that” 

Aaria bristled at his words, her usual defiance flaring up.

“I stayed because I didn’t want you to end up puking all over yourself again and also last but not least fact you were holding my hand all night I tried to take it back but you didn't left...”

Rocky gave her a small smirk, his words Slightly teasing.
“I see...”

She couldn't help but roll her eyes at his smirk, her irritation at him coming back with full force.

“You were Also trying to be hero last night eat all the food in one go even after you can't tolerate spice you can just throw that away but noo your ego was too big to step back for once”

Rocky chuckled dryly, his smirk fading slightly.

“Well that wasn't ego at all....that time
Neither my Wife either Inayat khalili daughter or Ahmed's Sister serve me food... My best friend Served me dinner last night like she used to Serve when we were young So I think you have no right to tell me to throw my best friend hand food away I'll eat again if she serve again same food even if it's poison next time.”

Aaria’s irritation cooled slightly at his words, her heart panging at the mention of their friendship. She bit her lip, her gaze shifting for a moment.

“It was still stupid to think something like that when that friendship already ended.”

Rocky's expression darkened at her words, his eyes hardening.
“No. it didn't.”

Aaira huffed out standing up.
“It's so Time wasting to argue with you."

Rocky’s eyes followed her as she stood up, a flicker of annoyance on his face.

“Running away from the argument now aren't we?”

Aaria turned to look at him, her eyes narrowed.

“More like I know arguing with you is like arguing with a brick wall.”

Saying this she walked away Rocky watched her leave, and Chuckled.
