Chapter-7

Eid Mubarak🌙😊

Thanks to all my dearest readers for supporting this story😊

"There is nothing special about her, she's not so beautiful and she would be my last choice to dance" he said hiding how much he is willing to dance with her
Saasha gritted her teeth hearing this and even her mom hated Ashmith so much for insulting her daughter.

She was about to take a step when Amar called her, Ashmith looked at him and then at her... she glared at him for a second and turned towards her cousin. He sighed her to come,
She went to him and he introduced her to his friends, everyone welcomed her with a warm smile,
"Hi Am Ravi" one of them held her hand with a smile
"You look gorgeous"
he then again added  "You look gorgeous sister" after the stare he got from his friend
She blinked her eyes and then everyone started addressing her as sister which irked her more after hearing what Ashmith said.
She managed to give a smile and went away, away from the people, away from the hall

"Am I not beautiful, that Ashmith didn't want to dance with me?
Ok leave about Ashmith, however he is filled with pride but even people started calling me as sister??" she thought while running her hands through the neatly done hair
"Calm down Saasha, forget it. Let them think what they want, it's their opinion and that will never change you" She composed herself and asked driver to start the car

She texted Preethi to inform  her parents and aunt.
To divert herself, she plugged the earphone and heard her favorite songs, she was about to sleep when her head hit to the front seat, she rubbed her forehead watching the scenario before her... probably her car hit someone's, a small accident.
She waited for few minutes, but the opposite person was not at all ready to compromise. She got down from the car to apologize.
As she moved forward, she saw a handsome looking tall figure raising his hand on her driver
"I'm sorry for whatever damage has happened... we are ready to give compensation" she said with a pleasing look
The man was paused, then removed his shades and stared at her
"Please sir" she added not getting the response from opposite person
He remained same, looking at her.
"sir..." her driver shooked him and added "Mam is talking to you"
"Ummm... Yah" was all he could utter
"Iam so sorry.." she was stopped by him
"No no it's ok, it happens sometimes, everyone does mistakes and this time it's mine" he said with a apologetic look
Her driver was baffled
"But sir, till now you were telling it's my.." again he interrupted
"Yes, I said its yours.." looking at Saasha he added "but now I realize, it's my mistake that I haven't raised my hand before itself"
"Sorry!!" she said raising her eyebrows
"Ah..Ah.. I mean, I must have not raised my hand on him"
"Oh.., its ok, at least you realized it" she said and turned to her driver "Start the car"
"Excuse me Madam, may I know your name?" he asked
She left without turning behind.

"Mam, I think you have to catch a cab, car is not starting" her driver said
She rolled her eyes and her savior came
"Ok don't tell your name, but I can drop you home... Safely and faster than the cab"
"No thanks! I'll call a cab" she said opening the Uber app, but the logo wasn't leaving her screen
"You won't get signals in this area" he said grinning
She rubbed her forehead and the driver too suggested to go with him as its late night and even the area is not safe, but before that he took his ID card for his owner's security
"Hmmm Ok fine... I'll come" she nodded her head.

The man went and opened his car door for her, she glared at him but his gesture made her smile
He kept his left hand on his chest and the right one showing her to sit inside, he bowed his head and looked at her as she wasn't moving
She looked puzzled
"I always dreamt of a princess and when one is standing in front of me... I need to show minimum respect"
She laughed out loud after a long time, He smiled too.

He got in and started driving
"Saasha" she said smiling at him, he raised his eyebrows... she continued "my name"
"Oh!! I am Raj"
She again smiled at him
"Saasha if you don't mind, can you do me a favor?"
"Hmm" she was puzzled
"Please stop smiling at me like that, I can't concentrate on driving..." he said with a wink making her blush
Her phone rang and she kept it on speaker by mistake, swiping wrong button
"Saasha, why did you leave the party so early?, you felt bad for what he said?" her sister asked
"About..?"
"That.. that you aren't beautiful"
She hit her forehead and removed the call from speaker
"Ashu, you think I even care for that guy's words?"
"No, but I casually asked.., Achcha tell me.. where are you?"
"I am on my way to home" she ended the call
"Is that guy blind?" he asked
"who" she asked
"That guy in the party who didn't find you beautiful"
She smiled "Do you think I am?" she asked
He stopped the car and looked into her eyes
"I don't know if you're beautiful or not, I haven't gotten past your eyes yet"
She broke the eye contact and blushed, they kept quiet until they reached her destination which was given to him by her driver
"Thank you Raj, it was amazing meeting you..., you.. you make me feel special" she again had a smile
"You're special Saasha, and for me you are very special" he winked and left
She stood there until he drove away from her and then she ran inside

She was in deep sleep when her whole family came to check her
They were happy seeing her smiling in sleep
Ashmith was unable to sleep, as he came to know Saasha left the party suddenly.. but he was not aware of the reason
He decided not to stay apart from Vikram unless he knew about Saasha
Vikram liked Saasha so much that he was so tensed after hearing about Saasha, he reminded Amar to call him as soon as he reaches home and find Saasha safe
 
Amar kept staring at Saasha, when a phone call disturbed him
"Yeah Vikram, I was about to call you.. Saasha is safe" he said with a smile
"Uff!! Please pass the phone to that girl, I'll take her class now" he said and Ashmith who understood the matter thanked god
Amar laughed and continued "She is sleeping"
"Hmm.. Ok let her sleep, I'll see her tomorrow"
 
Vikram informed Ashmith about the same and he didn't react.
Ashmith went to his room, His phone beeped
He checked the message, and he was shocked
It read "Sir, I just got to know that, even Raj is in Hyderabad for some meeting"
He threw the phone far away and clenched his fists, his face turned to red like never before.
