A Revenge Marriage: Love, Lies and Sister Ties

[11] The Deadly Abduction And The Secret Escape

As the morning sunlight streamed into the room, Ruhaan was getting dressed, his laughter and playful banter filling the air. Ruhaan, struggling to pull his T-shirt over his head, stumbled and shouted, "Riyu, help! Help!"

Riya couldn't contain her giggles, watching Ruhaan's antics struggling with the t shirt to pull over his head with happy tears in her eyes. She finally helped him out, still chuckling.

But Ruhaan, not one to be outdone, grinned mischievously. "Oh, so someone's laughing at me being trapped in the T-shirt? Wait, now I'll catch you!"

He took off after Riya, chasing her around the bedroom, their footsteps and laughter echoing through the room. Riya squealed with delight, trying to evade Ruhaan's grasp.

Just as she was about to fall, Riya called out, "Ruhaan!" He quickly grabbed her hand, pulling her close, and they both tumbled onto the bed, Riya landing on top of him.

For a moment, they just looked at each other, their faces inches apart, the world around them melting away. The air was charged with tension, their hearts beating as one.

In that instant, they both knew that their friendship had crossed a threshold, and there was no turning back. The question was, what would they do next?Ruhaan, still grinning, said, "Now, laugh, laugh na, Riya!" But instead of laughing, Riya's face turned bright red, and she became shy.

She looked away, trying to hide her blush, but Ruhaan could see the color rising to her cheeks. He chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners.

"Riya, you're looking cute," he teased, his voice low and gentle.

Riya's eyes darted back to his, her expression softening. She smiled, a small, hesitant smile, and Ruhaan's heart skipped a beat.

He reached up, his hand brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "You're beautiful, Riya," he whispered, his voice full of emotion.

Riya's heart fluttered, her pulse racing. She felt like she was melting into his gaze, like she was drowning in the depths of his eyes.

For a moment, they just looked at each other, the world around them fading away. Then, Ruhaan's lips curved into a tender smile, and Riya knew she was lost forever.Ruhaan chuckled, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Now, laugh on me, angel girlyy!"

Riya tried to get up, but her hair lock got tangled in his buttons. She giggled, trying to free herself. "Ruhaan, if you could..."

Ruhaan's grin widened. "ya just a second...," he said, his voice low and husky.

Riya's heart skipped a beat. She looked up at him, her eyes locking onto his. "Just help me, Ruhaan," she whispered, her voice barely audible.

Ruhaan's fingers gently worked out the tangle, his touch sending shivers down Riya's spine. As he freed her hair, his hand brushed against her cheek, leaving a trail of sparks.

Riya's face flushed, her pulse racing. She knew she had to get away, but her body seemed rooted to the spot. Ruhaan's eyes held hers, his gaze burning with intensity.

"Run away, Riya," he whispered, his voice teasing. "But I'll always catch you."

Riya's heart raced, her soul soaring. She knew she was in trouble, but she couldn't help the way she felt .Ruhaan's fingers deftly opened the button, and he gently removed the tangled hair strand of Riya from his T shirt. As soon as she was free, Riya took off, her laughter echoing through the room.

Ruhaan smiled, watching her flee. "You can't escape me that easily, Riya!" he called out, his voice teasing.

Riya's giggles grew fainter as she disappeared from view. Ruhaan smiled, his eyes still shining with amusement. He lay back on the bed, his heart still racing from their playful encounter.
