My brothers were not happy with the alliance, they were ready to do anything to call off the alliance but they wanted my approval for it. I know my dad would be worried, and he won't be assured unless I marry him. So, I had to stop my brother's from doing anything. It was a bit easy to control everyone of them but Anhaan (my 5th brother), he wasn't ready to back off. It took a lot in me to make him understand. He was angry and was not talking to me and dad for a whole day for agreeing to this alliance. But after sometime, he came to us, apologized and we can't ignore his cuteness, we ended up forgiving him. After that dad left me alone with him and

“I don't know why you are agreeing to this alliance even if you don't want to. I just hope you stay happy pumpkin, I want you to be happy. I can't see you sad. I wish I could change your mind, but it's hard for me knowing that it's dad's wish and you won't back off if it's his wish. And for now all I can say is for you to tell me when something goes wrong. I hope you stay happy forever, pumpkin. Know one thing, I love you and I am always there for you”, he hugged me once and left from there.

And that's when I knew that he is far more mature than what he shows us.

I am sitting in his bed, I am nervous though but still can't do anything. His mother's so sweet and so is his son, Eshaan, the only one who is arrogant is him. Soon, I heard the door opening and closing and when I looked up it was Mr. Fazil. He looked at me for a moment, then went inside to where I assume is closet and came back with some clothes and then he looked at, sighed and said, “Your clothes are in the closet, go and change out of that dress. It must be uncomfortable”, with that said he went out. I went to the closet, it took me exactly 17 minutes to change, with the heavy dress, jewelleries and with all those hair pins in my hair, it was so difficult. Mostly my hair was the one which took a lot of time. When I came out, I saw him already sitting on the bed. When I came out he looked up at me, he did check me out for a minute, but looked away and his ears were turning red.

I was going towards couch when he called me, “Ms. Ah-sorry, Mrs. Fazil”, I looked at him and he gestured me to sit next to him. I hesitated a bit, nevertheless, I went towards the bed and sat leaving a proper distance between us.

“Um... I.. It's jus-t... Aish, why I am  I so nervous”, the last part he muttered slowly under his breathe, but I heard him. I chuckled in my mind when I looked at him struggling for words. It looks like he is more nervous than I am. He is cute when he is nervous.

Wait, what I am I thinking? Don't forget he forced you Sam. Don't fall for his cuteness or anything.

“Okay. So what I wanted say is, that... I... Okay... You know, I didn't meant to force you in this alliance, but the situation made me. Look, I will never hurt you, I just wanted you to be safe. The danger you are in currently, is because of me. Okay. I'll protect you no matter what”, I looked at him as he stopped took a breathe

“In what danger I am I in, even I dont know, but why is it because of you I am in it?”, I questioned him out of curiosity.

“Listen here, Lucciola (Firefly), all I want is your safety. And I will answer your question when it's the right time. OK, Lucciola (Firefly)”, he said. I said nothing. I am confused about everything but he won't answer me, I looked at him and he looked away I could see his face turn red. Is he really shy or what?

“What is lu-iola?”, I asked him. He just chuckled at me, I know I pronounced it wrong I looked away a bit embarrassed. His chuckle was deep and hot and se-

Stop it.... I shouldn't think like this.

“Now go to sleep, Lucciola (Firefly), I'll take the couch, you sleep on the bed, Good Night, La mia Lucciola (My Firefly)”, with that said, he went towards the couch before I could even say anything. I looked at his back, as he slept with his back facing me. I smiled at him and muttered, 'Good Night' in a low voice.

He is actually not as bad as I expected him to be. Let's see, to where the road of my life takes me to.
