"you take care off yourself anu. I need to go. If work would not be important than i would never leave you like this. "said aryan as he hugged annika and like always she does not respond and plastered a fake smile.
"you dont worry aryan, shivaay is here na. He will take care of me. And thank you so much for taking me home. "said aryan. He smiled and went from there not before saying shivaay to take care of her. Shivaay nodded and went from there for preparing soup for her. Meanwhile annika get bored. She was annoyed with shivaay's behavior or should i say somewhere in heart she knew that shivaay doesn't like aryan taking care of her.
"here is your soup, you must be hungry. "he said coming towards her.
"you know how much hungry i am. "she said trying to lighten his mood.
"how? "he ask as he arranged a small table for her in bed.
"like hungry dogs. "she said. He chuckled.
"then have this soup. " he said.
She tastes a bit of soup then makes faces.
"ewww,shivaay.i dont like this kind of soup. My pasta was better than this. "she pouted. Soon a bowl present infront of her.
"here is your pasta. I warmed it. Have it. "said shivaay sarcastically.
She gulped knowing her cooking scales.
"actually i think soup is best for me. And you know i love it. "she said while gulping whole soup. He chuckled. Like this a month went. Shivaay was caring her like a baby which was mesmerized by annika. She is loving to spend her time with him. Playing video games. Doing prank. Made him irritate by showing her tantrums. She is becoming old annika.
"annika, you should sleep now. We have appointment from doctor,i hope after plaster you can walk. "he said as he made her lie down on the bed and covered her with duvet.
"hmm"she hummed.
"finally, you can walk. "he sighed in relief.
"yeah, am i burden to you? "she asked sadly.
"no, not at all. But you will be fit and fine.you can go anywhere after this. "he said with enthusiasm. She thinks something then said.
"shivaay, i hope you dont mind if i go to doctor with aryan not you."this sentence again made him realize that she is not his. She is aryan's. He is coming between them. Afterall annika and aryan are couple. They too need privacy. I
"yeah, Ofcourse. Why not? You both need to spend time together. "He said swallowing his tears.
Saying this he left her room not before bidding her good night.
Annika's pov-
I know he is hurt. I dont know why i did this? Why did i hurt him?just because i dont want him to know that i am fit and fine. I am liking this caring shivaay. I like spending time together. Playing games, reading novels, cooking food together. If he got to know that i am fine then he will go back mumbai. As i heard his and pinky aunty's conversation that day.
Flashback -
"comeon,annika.you can do it. Try to stand by yourself. You can do it. "he cheered her up.
"i cant, i think my leg will not be repair. "i sighed. He bent down on his knees infront of me held my chin and made me look in his eyes.
"you can do it annika. Just keep your hand on your heart and try. "he said assuringly. I smiled but then a call disturbed both of us. it was pinky aunty's call. Shivaay rolled his eyes and excuse himself. I did that only. I inhaled and exhaled then kept my hand on my heart and tried. Yes, i was moving my leg. I tried slowly to stand up. And yes, i stood up. Though it was paining a lil. But this will be fine.first i thought to scream from my lungs in happiness then i thought to give surprise to him. So,i tried and slowly-slowly reached near door because he was in hall. But my feet stopped listening arguement between pinky aunty and shivaay. They were arguing about me. She was waiting for him getting married soon and he was promising her that he will come once i started to walk. I was numb at that situation. Is he really want to move on.
Flashback ends.##################################
"annika, it is amazing to see that you can walk.you recovered very fast. Now you can walk properly. Its just you need to do some exercises regularly and healthy food. Ok. "doctor said smilingly..
I smiled and thanked doctor. I decided to say lie to shivaay. So he could stay here for more time with me.now i came back to home, i knew it. He wouldn't be at house. I had seen many times in his eyes, he could not see me and aryan together. I settled down on the couch when my cell buzzed.
It was shivaay's call. I received. Before he could ask me i lied to him.that doctor said that my legs need more time to recover. He was sad then tried to cheer me up by saying "hey, dont worry. You will be fine. "i hummed and reach the house waiting for him. Why the hell i lied to him. If he wants to go. So, i should
Let him go. Soon his voice broke my trance.
"hey, you came back. Don't worry, we will try again. And i know you will be fine in just 1 week. "he said and hugged me lightly.
I smiled faintly.Its been 3 days since he is pampering me more than anything. I feel bad for saying lie to him. But i don't know why, i lied to him. But i lied.
"annika, i am cooking soup for you.so,you take rest. Ok. "he said as he wore his apparel. I nodded but as i saw that he is going to fall from stare my heart skipped its beat. I forgot my lie and ran to him to hold him. Screaming his name.
"are you fine?should i call doctor?do you have any scratches? "i asked as i checked him by touching his face.
"no, you dont need to call doctor. "he replied me coldly.
"hush, thank god you are ok. "i thanked to god. But suddenly i realized his eyes spitting fire, blood shot red eyes. Then i realised that my lie has caught up by him.
"listen,shivaaay…"i tried to explain him. But he jerked my hand.
"yes, today. I want to listen. Since 3 days you are fooling me. What did you think.i dont know anything. I know everything from the day you went for check up alone. I knew every bit of yours. Why are you doing this to me?i need answers annika.... "he shouted. I was hearing everything with unknown feelings inside me.
Those feelings were burning my skin. Guilt was coming again and again to me.
"you knew annika,i dont like lies. Still you lied to me. Why? "he again shot his question to me. This time an unknown rage came to me.
End of pov....
He noticed that her pain is finally coming out today. It is difficult for him but still he was ready to burn in her rage.
Shiv's pov-
Today, i had seen her eyes with the rage it was not some normal anger, it was that anger which was hid from so long. Aryan was right i need to open up her. Once,she will threw her inner turmoil out. She will be fine. I showed her my anger more to enrage her.
"answer me,annika.why the hell? You lied to me. Answer me damn it. "i barked again. Her tears came out but she swallowed all the tears. Oh no. Again she hid her pain by swallowing her tears. In irritation i ran my hands through my hairs and started to go in my room.
"you need answers,shivaay.right.then where are you going without hearing my answers?if you need answers so, i had also some questions. In just three days you loose. If i lied three days.so,you lied to me three damn years. Mr. Shivaay singh oberoi. You could not bear me just 3 days and i bore your lie 3 damn years. You say, we are different. Yes, we are different like no other. I bear your betrayal, your lie since 4 years. And you couldn't even bear my lie just 3 days. Today, i want some answers from you too. No matter those question will hurt you or not. Today i will question you. "she shouted, her nose was red, eyes were spitting fire. Tears were trickled down to her cheeks. Hairs disheveled. I took deep breath. Today is the day. When i am facing her last time. I promised to aryan after her pain open up. I will not come back. I will give her to her fiance. Afterall i am no one to her. But the tough thing is to face her valid questions which was she hiding. She held my collar and made me face her.
"tell me, shivaay. Am i looking to you doll?"she shook me with my collars.
"ahh,annika….."i fumbled but she cut me off.
"yes, the great shivaay singh oberoi is now fumbling.listen your fumble would not give me answer. So, god damn answer me. "she shouted and left my collar.
"annika, i.... I…am so.. rry... "i apologized knowing that my apologies would not work. "oh shut up shivaay, can you give me back my 4 years, which i spent thinking about your betrayal?am i looking doll to you,whom you played 3 years then after 4 years you remember about me.you know shivaay, there are many girls who uses boyfriends like dress but for me you were my first love. Though,i never confessed. But you know that right. What you did with me? You bet me with daksh.and you are feeling guilty. The day shivaay i got to know about your betrayal,i decided. I will not show you my face. I was broken but you know what your betrayal made me strong. Tell me shivaay, why the hell you did this to me. Tell me. "she shout at me and started crying while beating me on my chest with her soft hands. She was crying bitterly and i was sobbing bowed down my head. And she was crying unknowingly, leaning onto me.A hearty apology for getting late in update. But we all have some personal issues too. And mine reason is also same. I hope you guys understand.
