"Do you regret kissing me, Ishika?" His voice dropped-dark, low, and possessive enough to steal the air from my lungs.
My entire body froze.
Not because I didn't know the answer- But because I did.
My breath hitched, sharp and aching. Regret?
God. I...

I entered my room and locked the door behind me. My back slid down until I hit the floor, and I crumpled there, my hands clutching my dress as tears streamed down my face.
I cried, silently at first. "What have I done? How could I?" The words escaped in a broken whisper, and the tears poured out uncontrollably. I couldn't hold them back anymore. I didn't have the strength to pretend. I didn't have the energy to fight. Why do I always have to be the perfect eldest daughter? Why do I have to shoulder everything? Can't I just stop for a moment? Can't I take a break? I'm so tired-so exhausted.
The tears kept flowing, refusing to stop, and I let them. I let them carry the weight of everything I couldn't say aloud. I wanted to cry until I had nothing left inside until my mind and heart were empty of the chaos that was suffocating me. I just wished... I wished someone would come and take me away, somewhere quiet, somewhere peaceful, somewhere I could finally breathe.
Why is my life suddenly taking all these turns? If I never did someone wrong, then why is God punishing me? I am stuck.
To hide one lie I have to speak thousands of lies. How long will I keep lying to everyone? How long will I keep lying to myself? My heart ached like it was being crushed under the weight of everything. And now I've dragged someone else into this mess-someone who didn't deserve to be here.
Veer.
I thought of him, and my chest tightened with guilt and pain. He was not helping me because I needed it. He was helping because he wanted me... for his own good. And He doesn't think I deserve to know the truth. But WHY?
None of this is right. This fake marriage-this lie-it was a mistake. And I am the one who made it happen. This is my fault. I am responsible for this.
Everyone thinks we're in love. Everyone thinks we're perfect, meant to be, happily ever after. But it's all a lie. We don't love each other. We've never loved each other.
And I hate him.
I hate you, Veer Raghuvanshi. I hate the way you're doing this to me on purpose, I KNOW YOU ARE USING ME FOR YOUR OWN USE, I know... I just know.
Why does it always have to be me? Why do all the problems crash into my life at once? Why do I always have to act like I'm happy, like everything is fine when I feel like I'm falling apart inside? Whatever I do, it's never enough. Everything I touch falls apart. WHY?!
Samaksh was right, I am the trouble...
I knew by now my eyes were puffy and red, my face was red. I am not someone who cries usually but this time I am just tired... I want to give up, I just want to free myself, I WANT TO RUN AWAY!!! From everyone, every responsibility.
