Suddenly

Chapter 15

NEELAM's POV
Seriously, I was starting to hate my job. Why couldn't my boss understand that I was a hairdresser and not a freaking secretary or personal assistant.
She decided to send me to Liverpool for two days to clear some paperwork. I was really tired and I wasn't even in the mood of getting up from the bed but I still had to go and get ready for Aryan's cousin's reception.

Neelam's dress

I couldn't understand why I was feeling uneasy that evening, I even told Sukhi when we were going to the reception. The feeling of something would have gone wrong was making me worry but as soon as we were there I somehow tried to calm myself and enjoy the night.

Tonight with a great surprise mr. Aryan decided to compliment me in a proper way.
"See, it was simple, but no, you had to make me feel bad last time" I mentally thought.

ARYAN's POV

I was irritated by my family's stupid conversation, from the outside we looked the most loving family but like all the families, we also had a bad side. I looked for Neelam since I was regretting about what happened the other night, so I wanted to fix things.
I learned a lesson last time at the engagement, that's why as soon as I saw Neelam wearing black beautiful dress, I ran to her and told her how beautiful she was looking tonight.

We decided to sit near the stage "Aryan look, what a cute couple. Don't you think?" Neelam asked excited pointing the bride and groom dancing "Yeah, but I am sure, they have their ups and downs like everyone. I don't think there is something called happy ever after" I said while having a sip of my soft drink. "I don't think I agree with you on this. I think, if the couple is truly in love, such thing exist" she told me not taking her eyes off the newlywed couple. "Yeah, but not everyone is lucky to get" I explained her and she looked at me confused "Why not? What do you think of us? Do you think that we will have 'happy ever after'?" Neelam asked me "Why are you suddenly asking me all these questions?" I asked her trying to calm myself but I found it hard. "Aryan please, I am serious: if we don't have these type of conversations how we are going to know each other's point of view? I don't know why are you-" as she was saying something I stopped her immediately "Okay. If that's the case. Don't you think that we should share things?" I asked her furiously and her eyes looked me confused.

"Hey. Wait. What's really going on in your mind? What do you exactly mean?" she asked me confused and I stayed quite until she sighed and got angry "Talk" she said and I close my hand in a fist. "Who is Luca?" I suddenly asked her straightforward and she looked at me surprised "Hold on. Did you go through my phone?" Neelam asked me in disbelief and shook her head and I got even mad.
She was there giving lectures about relationships having that so called "Happy After" and still she was hiding things from me. "That's not the answer! You are hiding things like these from me, so how I am supposed to trust you in the future and for God sake, I am not doubting on you but I am saying-" she interrupted me like always "Are you in your sense?" she asked me and I could see that she was getting angry "Let me finish at least" I said trying to control my anger but as always she didn't listen.
"No, now you listen to me! Since it has became the night to speak your heart, Why haven't you introduced me to your family? Okay, let the family go but the friends?" she asked me suddenly "What? Please don't bring this up, we barely even know each other and introduce you to my family while knowing that we still hide things it's stupid" I said frustrated.

How could she even think about family and all when we barely even knew each other and moreover she was hiding things.

"Aryan, think whatever you want to think I can't argue with you anymore!" she said and started going "Well, even I am tired of this relationship, this is your first relationship and you are thinking about all this" I yelled at her back not caring about being too harsh. She turned around and looked at me with teary eyes "Yeah, first relationship and I regret it" she said and turned around and went away.

SUKHI's POV
Sukhi's dress

I was standing and enjoying the couple dance. All the couples from the young one to the old one and it was kinda cute to watch them dancing to the slow rhythm of the music.

The guy of the pre-engagement came closer to me "Hi" he said "hello" I said not paying too much attention to him "It was nice to dance with you last time" he said broking the ice and I smiled "Yeah, me-" but before I could complete my sentence Ahaan interrupted me."Hi, I am Ahaan and if you don't mind I want to dance with her" he said "Wh-what? Wait" I said but it was too late we were already on the stage.

'What is happening? Is he maybe jealous? No, why would he?' I asked myself.

He dropped me to the stage were the couple were dancing, he placed his hand on my waist tightly, and he looked me in the eyes and again like the last time It seemed like he was hurt and angry. AGAIN.

"Ahaan? Are you mad at me?" I asked him and he ignored me like the last time, "Ahaan, This is the second time, stop acting like you are jealous? " I said frustrated, he was about to say something when the song stopped and he took my hand and went in a room.

Suddenly he pushed me back to the wall and kissed me and I immediately pushed him "What the hell, Ahaan!?" I said to him looking straight into his eyes,
"What?! Can't you see that I like you? Why are you being so hard? Why do you keep pretending that you don't know my feelings?" he asked angrily taking my wrist tightly and getting closer to me.
"Leave my hand Ahaan, you are hurting me" I said while trying to pull my wrist away from his hand
"Can't you see that I am also hurt when that guy talks to you, when he get close to you and when he touches you like he going to make you his?! I am hurt too" he yelled and this was the first time I saw him angry like that.

"WHY?!" I asked him back "Idiot, I love you and I hate when someone, touch what is mine" he suddenly said "Since when I am yours? Don't...Please don't think I am not like your chicks or girls you take to bed " I told him a little hurt "You are not like them, you ar-"Ahaan was about to continue when a knock stopped him.

I went to open but suddenly he took my wrist and turned me around "Please Sukhi. Listen, I am sorry I shouldn't have kissed you but this is the first time that I really like someone, and you are the 'someone', don't reject me and I swear you are not like that girls not even a percent" he said and I was surprised by his action "A-ahaan I...but I need some time" I said ignoring him and he sighed nodding me "Ahaan now leave me, I have to go" as I said he left my hand.

Luckily, it was just a servant who knocked and since it was midnight, It was already time to go back home, so I called Neelam but she was already at home 'strange' I thought and I was 99.5% sure that was Aryan's fault.

So Ahaan being a gentleman dropped me at home.

"Thank you" I thanked him awkwardly and he smiled "No problem and as always if there is a problem just call me and...and...take your time" he said and I nodded and thanked him another time before going.
