"Ruhi's Second Chance"

VIII. "Unspoken Scars"

I was standing in his house, yeah, the one and only client of mine these days.

"Veer, we will apply blue color here," I said, looking at Veer while he looked at me with widened eyes.

"Are you crazy? Sir will show us the way to hell," he said, his voice filled with worry as I looked at him.

"See, Ruhi Birla doesn't listen to useless demands from the client, so we are going with blue," I said, looking at Veer.

"But sir-" he was about to speak, but I interrupted him in the middle. "Where is your sir?" I asked him, and he pointed towards a room. I looked at the room.

"Okay, I will talk to him myself," I said, looking at him while Veer nodded.

"I need to tell you one thing: I know why Rishi hired you," I said, looking at him while he looked at me with a confused expression.

"Why?" he asked, looking at me.

"Because you and Rishi both are so irritating and make a perfect couple," I said, looking at him and started moving towards Rishi's room while Veer just looked at me.

I knocked at his door, and for a second, he didn't open it. After a minute, he opened the door. He is just so annoying! I quickly turned around, looking at him; he wasn't wearing a shirt.

"So you lack shirts? I can buy you one. Why are you always without a shirt?" I said irritably, looking at him while he moved closer. I could feel his hot breath on my neck, his hand gently on my waist, and he pulled me into the room, pinning me against the door.

Ruhi's POV ends.

While Rishi was admiring her beautiful eyes, his hands were on her waist, and Ruhi shivered at his touch.

I was shocked to find her in a saree. How attractive she looked in it! No doubt girls look different in sarees, and I couldn't control myself from going closer to her. My mind was completely lost in her eyes, and I wanted to kiss her passionately, but we didn't share any relationship.

"What are you doing?" she said, her voice trembling. I couldn't do anything but remove my hands from her waist.

I am sorry I said, looking at her while she nodded.

"Can you wear a shirt?" she said, looking away from my body while I looked at her with a mischievous smile.

That day, I was at your home, and I was shirtless. It was not a good thing with cutie pie. "This is my house, and it's my wish if I want to wear one or not," I said, looking at her while she turned her face angrily towards me.

"You," she said again, turning her face while I smiled, looking at her. "How cute and hot can someone be together?" But Ruhi Birla can be. She made me understand she was pulling me closer, and I wanted to pull her closer.

"Rishi, please wear a shirt," she said, looking at the door while I was happy hearing my name from her mouth. How beautiful can my name be in her mouth? I smiled and looked at her and moved towards her.

"Do you get affected by me?" I said gently in her ear, my lips gently brushing her skin, giving her shivers while I smiled mischievously, looking at her.

"Affected by you, no chance," she said, pushing me towards the bed while I held her wrist, pulling her along with me. We both landed on the bed; she was above me, one hand on my face while the other was in my hand. I intertwined our hands as I was just lost in the moment. She was also getting drawn towards me. She moved closer to my ear, and my breath stopped as her face gently touched my cheek. It gave me butterflies; this was something I had never experienced.

It seemed like someone else was affected by my presence, but I was not. She spoke in my ear gently, her voice filled with mischief. When I turned my head towards her, I ended up kissing her lips as she also turned her head. My hands on her waist became tight, pulling her closer, as it was now impossible for me to control myself. I pulled her into a breathtaking kiss. At first, she wasn't responding, but soon she also started responding, her tongue exploring each and every part of my mouth while I smiled gently, looking at her.

My hands moved on her bare waist, giving her shivers down her spine. I kissed her neck passionately, then her collarbone, and her waist while she moaned my name. Just as I was about to capture her lips, she backed out.

Rishi's POV ends.

Ruhi looked at him, turning her head in a "no," and Rishi was looking at her in confusion.

I looked at him and nodded "no."

"This isn't correct," I said, looking at him as I stood up from the bed, and he also stood up.

"Ruhi, I love you, and you love me. Then what's wrong with this?" he said angrily, his voice filled with rage while I looked at him.

"Love isn't meant for me. The person I love, I never get to keep in my life. I loved my parents, but I don't have them anymore. I loved Poppy, but he isn't with me. I loved Billa Boy, but he also left me. I loved Armaan, but he asked me to marry his brother for our love, as he loved his brother more than me. I started to develop a bond with Rohit, but he also left me. I loved the Goenka family, but they also abandoned me," I said angrily, looking at him.

My eyes filled with tears while his eyes filled with anger and pain. I went from there and turned on my car. This was the first time I shared something that was in my heart.

Ruhi's POV ends.

While Rishi was looking at her car angrily, he thought, "How can someone give you pain? How can someone not love you? You are a reason to believe in love. How did Armaan and Rohit do this to you? How can they? I have been thinking about where all these years went, but these years gave you pain. Now, I won't let all the people who caused you pain live peacefully: Mr. Armaan, Rohit, and the Goenkas. Now you are going to see the worst of me," said Rishi angrily, hitting his hand on the wall, blood oozing out of his hand. But still, the pain in his eyes was for Ruhi.
