Diya's POV

" Beautiful!!!" I just could say seeing the beautiful lake in front of me as soon as I got down from the car.

" Indeed." I heard him saying.

I turned to him and found him looking at me. He smiled at me and I don't know why I felt an urge to feel that smile, to touch that smile. I raised my hand and touched his lips. He looked at me totally confused trying to figure out what I was doing. I removed my hand and looked at the lake.

" It's really beautiful." I said.

" It is." He said. Thankfully he didn't ask anything about my act.

" Let's go." He said holding my hand. I walked with him. I didn't say anything just kept enjoying the beautiful view. It was amazing. I was so relaxed suddenly. No worries no depression nothing. It's so calm and a divine peace around. The beauty of nature was just making feel me more and more peace. It was so pure beautiful nature. I kept smiling.

" You are looking like a kid." He said.

" I know." I said.

" What make you so happy suddenly?" He asked me.

" Just the beauty of nature. It made me feel relaxed." I said.

" I see." He said and we kept walking towards the lake.

" Can I ask you something?" I asked him.

" Sure. No need to ask for permission to ask a question." He said and I smiled.

" Why are we here? I mean why have you brought me here?" I asked him.

" This is one of my favorite places. I often come here. Even late night. I keep coming here. It's really a beautiful place to view the nature." He said and I nodded. We walked ahead and found a bench. I wanted to sit there for a while and enjoy the beautiful nature.

" Can we sit there for a while?" I asked him.

" Tired?" He asked.

" No, actually I want to enjoy the nature." I said.

" Let's go then." He said and we sat side by side.

" Nature is a source of true beauty." I said.

" True." He said. We stayed silent for a while. I felt him holding my hand and I turned my head towards him. He was looking straight at the lake. I also kept looking at the lake. I didn't start a conversation until I remembered something I wanted ask him a while ago.

" I want to ask you something." I said. He nodded.

" I told you to ask directly no hesitation." He said.

" I want to know about your cousins." I asked a bit hesitantly. He smiled.

" Well, you will meet them soon." He said but I shook my head.

" I want to know. Tell me." I said.

" Well. That's very complicated. You won't understand that easily. Our clan is more complicated than Hindi language." He said and sighed. I narrowed my eyes at him.

" Start to describe Mr. Axton. Let's see how complicated that is." I said and he sighed again.

" Well. I will tell you." He said. "My cousins are from both of my parents side." He said and took out his phone. I looked at the screen and I sighed with a shock expression. It was me on his phone's screen. It was that day in the bar when I was talking with the others. He was there he told me but this!!! Totally unbelievable.

" Are you a crazy stalker?" I asked him but he just smiled.

" Yeah, crazy and mad." He said. I shook my head at his childishness.

" When did you take this pic?" I asked him.

" When I reach there I found you sitting there and looking like an angel from heaven. I just captured the moment." He said. I looked at him and then looked away.

" Come on tell me about your cousins." I said. He searched for something in his phone.

" Well, my mom has 2 sisters and a brother and my dad has a sister." He said and showed me their pictures. " Now my cousins." He said and showed me the picture of a beautiful couple. I have seen this girl somewhere. I have seen her. I definitely did.

" Eleanor Stewart!!!" I suddenly remembered her.

" Yes, she is. And this is her husband Steffan Anderson." He said and I nodded. " They have twins." He showed me their pictures. They are really cute.

" She is Ariana and he is Aaron." He said.

" They are cute." I said.

" This is Edwin, Eleanor's twin." He said.

" Oh." I said. " They don't look like they are twin." I said.

" They are not identical. This why." He said. He started to tell me about his cousins. There are so many people. I almost lost the line.

" There are a lot of twins in your family." I said when he said about his cousin Luke and Liam.

" Yeah, a lot of twins." He said.

" They are identical." I said pointing Luke and Liam.

" Yes, they are." He said. " Tell me about your cousins." He said.

" My cousins!!! Hmm. I don't have very close relationship with my cousins but Aradhya and Divya." I said.

" Alright, just tell me. I want to know." He said and I nodded.

" Well my mom has a brother and a sister and my dad has two brothers and a sister." I said.

" My Mama I mean my mom's brother, he has a daughter she is Divya. She is a pilot. Recently joined. I am very proud of her." I said honestly. " Here, my dad's elder brother has 2 sons and a daughter. Abhishek, Arjun and Anjali. My dad's youner brother has two daughters. Shreya and Tanya. My aunt has 3 sons. Aditya, Dhruv, Yash." I said and I really don't any idea what else to say about them. I Sighed.

" I only know Aradhya from all of them." He said.

" Me too." I said mindlessly.

" What?" He asked.

" Actually I always stayed out of house and this why my relationship with them didn't developed that good." I said.

" That's an accuse!!! Even we cousins stay thousands of miles away in different countries." He said.

" Yeah, but I think my relationship with them is very twisted." I said.

" Twisted!!!" He asked and I nodded. I really have a twisted relationship with my cousins. Twisted and Weird.
