HIS DARK DEMONS (✔️)

Chapter 27

Nidhi's POV

In the morning today, I woke up early. I had a bath, dressed up into casuals as I wasn't gonna go out today.

Darshan was still sleeping. On my bed. When I got up, I found myself on the side of the bed where Darshan fell asleep yesterday. And he was on the other side. I don't know how that happened, but I decided not to create a big issue out of this.

I went downstairs. In the kitchen, I saw that the breakfast was already made. Bread toast and omelette. An espresso. Still wondering who made this. Antra wasn't home last night. Maybe she made it and went back. But why would she do that?

I picked up the coffee mug only to find a little note below it. It said,

Morning love! I woke up early and hungry, so I made myself some food. Hope you wouldn't mind me wandering in your kitchen. I made you some breakfast as well. Specially your espresso. After having food I realised I'm sleepy, so I went back to sleep.

That was cute, I thought.

I started with my breakfast. It was still a little warm so I skipped the microwave procedure. Believe me, it did taste amazing. Just a normal omelette, like any other, but it tasted so good.

"Morning!" I heard.

"Good morning!" I replied, to the voice that has become my favourite one.

"Like what you eat?" He asks.

"Yes, it's delicious." I said finishing off with my espresso. "I didn't know you got the cooking skills."

"Ah, just the basics!" He chuckled.

"So you slept the night here?" Stupid Nidhi! You said you weren't gonna create a big issue out of it.

"Yeah. I was too tired to leave."

"You gotta leave now. It's already late. We have to reach at work."

Through all of this, that one thing kept on playing in the back of my head. Something that he said while he was asleep.

Don't leave. I want you to believe me, I'm not the same person.

Should I?

Yes I can say that he's been good to me, but can it be that he's faking it? Could all of this be a trap?

I don't even know the full story of his past. I've known some pieces of it, but I'm still unaware of the complete truth.

On the contrary, the fact that I actually like him isn't helping. Even if I happen to find any negative points, my affection for him tries to ignore it. Isn't that what love does to you?

"Earth to Nidhi?" I found Darshan waving in front of my eyes. Guess I just got lost.

"Yes?"

"I said I'm leaving. Is there anything you need?" He asked.

"No. Nothing."

He arched an eyebrow at me.

"What's wrong?" He asked me.

"Nothing." I said.

"Are you sure? Do you want me to sta—"

"No." I cut him off.

He gave me a look. Disappointed. And the look where it was evident that he's not buying 'nothing is wrong' shit.

"Sorry. We'll talk about that later." I smiled at him.

I felt sorry because of my rude behaviour. This man has done anything and everything to make his stand. To show me that he's changed. But there still are some things I feel he's hiding. And we need to talk about it as well.

"Okay. Meet you at office?" He asked.

"Yep." I nod.

Darshan's POV

Something was definitely wrong back there. I left Nidhi's about an hour ago. But the way she was thinking about something, the slight disgust I saw on her face, made me uncomfortable.

It affected me, because somewhere I knew that she was thinking about me. Something about my past that bugged her. And I cannot help, because it was what I was. The only thing I could do is hope for what the best is.
