"Broken Us"

Chapter 23:- "Unveiled Hearts"

It was a bright morning. The marriage went well, and today Ahaan and Ragini were to return back. As they both sat in the plane, Ahaan intertwined his fingers with Ragini's and slept on her shoulder, while Ragini caressed his hair. They both felt the warmth of each other and were just enjoying each other's company.

As they reached the airport, Ragini and Ahaan were standing together.

"I shall leave," said Ragini, and she was about to leave when Ahaan held her hand.

"You are living back with me," said Ahaan, looking at Ragini, while she looked at him with wide eyes.

"What do you mean?" asked Ragini, looking at Ahaan.

"That I can't live without you anymore, and you are coming with me," said Ahaan, pulling her towards him. They both headed towards Malhotra House. As they reached there, they went to their respective rooms to freshen up.

As they did so, Ahaan came into Ragini's room.

"Ahaan, what are you doing here?" she asked, looking at him while he sat on the couch and pulled her towards him. She sat on his lap.

"Ragini, I really want to know your past and tell you about my past, and if you are comfortable, then only I will ask," said Ahaan, looking at her.

Ragini looked at him, concern totally visible on her face. She just tapped his face; she wanted to tell him everything but also wanted to know his past, which disturbed him so much. She was just liking the way how perfect he was.

"I know I am very hot, but right now, stop admiring me and tell me if you are comfortable telling me your past or not," said Ahaan, looking at her with a smile.

Ragini looked at him, took a deep breath, and spoke her heart out.

"Ahaan, actually, Laksh and I were there to be in an arranged marriage. Though I wasn't interested, as I met him, I slowly developed a soft corner. But that wasn't love; he was in love with my sister, Swara, and he never told me this. One day, you helped me; he had clicked our picture and showed it to everyone, saying I had an affair with you," said Ragini, her voice deep and slow as she told him everything.

Ahaan, who clenched his fist angrily, looked at her.

"How can he blame you?" said Ahaan angrily, looking at Ragini while cupping her face gently and looking at her.

"Don't be angry. In fact, I think we should be happy," said Ragini, looking at him with a smile.

"Have you lost your mind? What are you saying?" said Ahaan, looking at her.

"If I had married Laksh, I wouldn't have met you. I wouldn't have fallen in love with you, and now you are one of the most precious people in my life, and I love you," said Ragini, hugging him while he looked at her with a smile.

"Oh really? If you love me, then I surely deserve a kiss," said Ahaan, pointing at his cheek. Ragini looked at his face and then at his reaction. She gently bent down towards his cheek while Ahaan closed his eyes, and she pecked his lips. Ahaan was shocked by this sudden move.

As he opened his eyes, Ragini started kissing his lips deeply, and they both engaged in a passionate and protective kiss for each other. The kiss had each and every emotion.

After a few minutes, Ahaan saw Ragini lacking oxygen, and he broke the kiss. The environment was light, and they were both completely lost in each other.

"Now it's your turn," said Ragini, looking at him after taking a deep breath.

Ahaan moved forward for a kiss, while Ragini kept her hand in the middle.

"Tell me about your past," said Ragini, looking at him.

"My past? Okay," Ahaan said, looking at her, his expression changing.

"It was a day when my elder sister and my sweet little champ came to our house. I had an important meeting lined up, but Di told me multiple times not to step out of the house that day. The taxis were on strike, and no taxi was moving around," said Ahaan, looking around. A small tear came to his eyes as he remembered that day, and recalling it was the most painful thing for him.

"As I was having a presentation at home, Ishu fell from the stairs, blood oozing out. The hospital is quite far from here. Misti called me multiple times, and I didn't pick up the call."

"As I came out of the meeting room, I called her as soon as possible and started moving towards home. While I was driving, a person who was drunk hit my car. I got hurt, and it took me more time to reach home. When I finally arrived, I......." said, Ahaan, looking at her. At that moment, he started crying; his heart was completely broken.

Ragini, who saw him like this, hugged him tightly.

"It was all my mistake. If I had listened to her, I wouldn't have had to go through all this," said Ahaan in a breaking tone, while Ragini also broke down seeing him like this.

"Ahaan, it was just an accident. It wasn't your mistake. Stop blaming yourself," said Ragini, tapping his face.

Ragini rested her head against his and started comforting him. Ahaan was completely broken right now, but a pinch of guilt was released as he shared his heart out with someone.

They both talked until evening, and by evening, Ahaan was completely fine, and they both returned to their normal routine.
