ABHIMAAN

She's staring at me as If she has seen a ghost,

Cute.

Well she doesn't know yet, so, why tell her now?

"Hnji, mummy ji hum jaa rhe hain"

(yes, mother, I'm going)

She smirks, and I can't help but return it. She's not shy about it—doesn't even blink. She's just as confident as I am, and that's exactly how I expected this to go.

Cherry's face is a mixture of embarrassment and shock. I can tell she's trying to process why her mother seems so unfazed, but honestly, I'm not bothered by it. I already got permission before coming in. What's the big deal? She's my future mother-in-law, after all. And seeing us in this position just means she'll get her grandchildren a bit early.

Chiya looks up at me, her eyes wide, like she's waiting for me to feel awkward. But I don't. why would i?

I stand up, stretching a little. "Alright," I say to Chiya, "You heard her."

She just stares at me, still unsure how to react, but I'm already moving past her, heading for the door.

Her mom's still smirking at me, like this is all some inside joke. "Chalo, beta, let's go," she calls again to Cherry, as if nothing unusual is happening.

And that's the thing—nothing is. Not to me. Nothing at all.

"Abhi," Cherry starts, but I cut her off with a wink. "Relax," I tell her, "It's all good."

As I step out of the room and enter the washroom, I hear her mother's voice again, this time softer, like she's talking to herself.

"You kids and your secrets..."

I can't help but chuckle at that, no wonder she wasn't shocked she must've gotten the memo when I came in last night.

Last night

I was already on my way to her house when she picked up the call, and I was only halfway there when I saw her car heading there too, see? What good luck I have?

No doubt she likes troubling me, she does need some reality check, no?

While following her car, I called her mother on the way.

Sunita aunty,

"Hello?" I hear from the other side

"Hi, aunty, its me-" i start but she cuts me off

"Oh! Abhimaan? How're you? Is something wrong?"

"Yes aunty, I was just asking if I can come over to meet cherry- I mean nitya, actually we had a fight and I wanted to make it up to her"

"Pehle toh mujhe aunty kehna band kro tum!" umm... okay

(first stop calling me aunty)

"Mummy ji bolo jamai raja ho tum humare ghar ke, dusra ye koi puchne ki baat hai? Tumhari hone wali biwi hai woh aur ye ghar bhi tumhara hi hai, bina puche hakk se aaya kro"

(Call me mom, you're the son in law of our family second is this something to ask? She is your soon to be wife and this house is yours too, you have the right to come whenever you want)

"Alright, mummy ji, but please don't tell Nitya. I want to surprise her"

POV Ends

I chuckle while thinking about yesterday night, how she mustve thought it was all dream but she doesn't know, I'm here to fulfill her each and every dream.

. . .

NITYA

What the actual fuck is going on here, after my mother ambushed us all I could think I about is, she knew?! She fucking knew!? I mean she let a not so stranger, Stranger, fuc- bed her own freaking daughter, I mean how- why?!

I am in the guest washroom, yeah me cause apparently the motherfucker is showering in mine.

Whatever, I brush my teeth and go inside my room to bring my clothes, I was going towards my cupboard when, again, I was pulled against a chest, his chest.

"Missed me cherry?" I could feel the warmth radiating off him, mixed with the faint scent of his shampoo and aftershave. The familiar, comforting smell didn't help the whirlwind of confusion and anger swirling in my head.

I turn around and see that- this guy is just in towel!

And I am eyeing him so shamelessly, my gosh those abs, can I lick them? Would he let me?

Fuck! What the hell is wrong with me?!

"You done eyeing me, rani sa?" he pulls me closer.

"Abhi, let me go, I don't want to talk to you" I said while pouting a bit.

He pecks my lips, making me gasp, the audacity!

His lips barely brushed against mine, igniting a spark that mingled with the confusion and anger boiling inside me. "You're so cute when you're pouting," he teased, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. I should have been furious—furious at the audacity of what was happening and at the chaos my life had suddenly turned into. Instead, my body betrayed me, flushing with warmth at his proximity, at his touch.

"Stop it, Abhi!" I fired back, trying to find the words to push him away, to reclaim some semblance of control over the situation. But my voice lacked force. "We need to talk about... everything."

"Everything?" He raised an eyebrow, feigning innocence, while his grin only widened. "Like how good I look in a towel or how you're caught between being angry and being attracted to me?"

"Focus!" I cried, stepping back to create some distance, attempting to shake my head clear. "This isn't funny. My mother— she saw us! how could she let this happen? Why did you come here?"

He looked at me, his expression shifting from playful to earnest. "because you acted like a brat, cherry, you disappeared. Your mom... She's cooler than you think. She wants us to be happy, and if that means getting a little extra cozy, then so be it." He says while pulling me more into his chest, so much so, my breasts are pushed onto him.

but i'm gone into the thinking mode and far beyond the unthinkable and sudden lt it clicks abhimaan is a terrible liar infront of me, and he's lying, why?

Wait, does she know?

"Does she- does she know what happened 18 years ago?" 

 "She knows you?"

He hesitates but then says the word I wish I hadn't heard,

"Yes"

And suddenly the act I did, the play I played all seemed so foolish, my life seemed stupid.

And then I see it too,

She is my mother, of course she knew.
