Unforeseen Love

Chapter 7 : Flash Backs

Yami's Pov :
I switched my alarm off, did my morning routine and started to get ready for today's performance.

So, the past four days have been so hustle - bustle, so chaotic and full of pressure as Niti and I have been rubbing our asses to put everything in place and in practice. We both practiced at her place and all the while I was continuously trying to ignore that man's presence and not come face to face with him and I was succeeding in it until yesterday.

*FLASH BACK*
Niti and Yami were practicing when Niti's mother called both of them to eat something.

" Niti , I have made coffee for  Abhi, go give it to him" said Niti's mother.

" Maa, I am not done eating yet, give it to Yami, she will go."

"Me!!" Yami shouted and her eyes grew big.

" What happened beta? " asked Niti's mother.

Yami stared at both of them and then shook her head " Nothing, All good.. hehehe".

"So , can you go beta ? Give this to Abhi. " Niti's mother said passing the coffee cup to Yami.

"O -ok Aunty ji. " she said  and took the coffee cup with a tight smile.

While going to Abhi's room Yami was in her whirlwind of thoughts.

" Calm down Yamika, it's not a big deal, you will just knock, enter, put the coffee and come back, see, so simple and easy. "

She reached in front of Abhimanyu's room and knocked but no one responded, she again knocked on the door but still no one answered. 5-6 minutes passed but still she got no response so she decided to go in and put the coffee in.

She opened the door and peaked inside only to find the room empty and the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

"Let's go Yami , it's easier now, just put the coffee on and run." She went in just as she put the Cup down on the side table beside his bed the bathroom door opened and she turned to go back only to meet with the 6'3 man coming out of the shower and only a towel wrapped around his waist.

Her breath caught in her throat, his hair damp and unruly droplets of water tracing their way down his toned chest to his stomach and getting lost underneath his towel. She was shamelessly ogling him completely forgetting about her escape mission.

" Are you done ogling?"

" Huh , No..oh, I mean yes... arghhhh no -no-no that's not what I mean. " she blabbed out.

" Why are you here ? " He asked her coldly and moved forward the bed.

"C - Coffee. " She said pointing towards the coffee cup placed at the table.

" Hmm , get out now. "
"Huh ? "
"Get out!"

Her brows shot up at his cold command. Crossing her arms, she tilted her head, watching his arrogance with her own fire.

"What is that language and tone ?You can simply ask me to leave instead of barking orders. "

Without waiting for a reply, she turned, ready to leave. But her being the clumsiest of all, her foot caught on the edge of the rug and before she knew she stumbled forward.

Time seemed to slow as she collided into him, her hands instinctively reaching out for balance. The impact sent them both tumbling back, and he landed on the bed with a soft thud, her body sprawled over his.

For a moment, neither moved. Her hands press against his chest, feeling the warmth of his skin beneath her trembling fingers. His arms circled her waist during the fall, and now they lingered, as if frozen in time.

The room was thick with unspoken tension. His sharp gaze looks at her face, their faces inches apart. Her breath hitched, the proximity was overwhelming, yet she couldn't bring herself to pull away.

"Get off me." , he said , his voice cold and devoid of emotion, like eyes cutting through the moment.

She scrambled off him quickly, her Pride stinging more than her embarrassment. Without a word, she turned and walked out of the room, her moments stiff and deliberate, refusing to look back.

He set up slowly, adjusting the towel around his waist. His gaze lingered on her retreating figure for a beat too long before he turned away, his expression unreadable.

* FLASH BACK ENDS *
Present

"When will you stop being so clumsy,Yamika. "

Well, now I have packed all my essentials needed and I am already all ready to go to Niti's home. Yes, you guessed it right, I am going to her place to actually get ready for the program. So, this was her idea that we both will get groomed up together and at first I completely did not agree
with this decision due to that incident but then she won with her sweet words and pleading puppy eyes.

Well, I didn't tell her about that incident but I can guarantee , with the expression she had yesterday, looking at me when I came back from his room, she was cooking her own story in her mind.

*SECOND FLASH BACK*
Just as she came out of his room, Yami ran from there, down the stairs and reached the hall, she was lost in her own thoughts when she bumped into Niti.

" What happened Yami ? "
" Huh! Maine kuch nhi kiya ! Maine to bs table coffee pr rkh di ! " she blurted out in a rush and didn't even realize her own twisted and meaningless sentences.
(I did nothing! I just placed the table on the coffee! )

"What! Tum kya bol rahi ho Yami or tumhare gal, ye tamatar ki trh lal kyu ho rkhe hai ? " Niti asked her while chuckling.
(What are you saying Yami and why are your cheeks red like tomatoes)

" Yes beta, what happened to you ? Kuch kaha Kya Abhi ne ? " asked Niti's mother who was calmly seated on the sofa.
( Did Abhi say anything? )

"Nhi ! " Yami exclaimed at which both Niti and her mother scrunched their brows.
(No)

" Mera mtlb , nhi - nhi bilkul nhi, vo kya khenge, kuch nhi kaha  " said Yami.
( I mean, no - no , not at all, what can he say, he said nothing.)

" I am going to the practice room Niti, we need to practice. " said Yami and she turned to leave and she could hear the chuckling of both the mother and daughter duo.
*SECOND FLASH BACK ENDS*

Present
I came out of my thoughts when I heard my phone ring and it is no one other than her.

" Yes say it Niti "

" Neeher is on his way to pick you and is about to reach in 5 minutes, be ready, and don't forget to bring that jewellery set I asked you. " Niti said and the rush in her voice was clearly visible.

"Ok - ok, don't worry I have packed everything. "

"Okay, see you here then. " she said and hung up.

Just as her phone disconnected the next my phone ran again with the caller ID showing Neeher.
