Being His Shining Armor

C H A P T E R: 11

"Mr. King, I'm asking you from that time and why aren't you answering me?" I whined like a kid.

I had been pestering dad from the time I got on the car till we entered the house but he chose to be silent and nothing else.

Why can't he answer me?

"What answer?" Dad took the ice water from the fridge and turned towards me.

"Dad!" I huffed.

"Do you know Sanskaar all before me?" I repeated the question again but this time I cut shorted the long question which I told before.

"Did he tell you anything about it?" Dad asked me gulping in the water.

"Urgh... He told me nothing except 'So it was and he didn't know that I'm your daughter' that's all." I sighed sadly.

"Then... I'm not telling." Dad said casually.

"What? But why?" I whined again.

"I can't say anything about this princess. Once he tells you then I'm gonna tell you everything."

I sighed heavily. No use! I know dad never tells anything when he's determined even if do something to know but hook or crook. So this way, I had to find things on my own. This is going to be a long tuff one.

"He's just your batchmate friend?" Dad questioned.

"No, I actually work in his cafe." I replied still lost in thoughts.

"His? You mean spring cafe?" He sounded astonished.

"Yes, why?" I narrowed my eyes.

"I didn't know you work there." I quickly turned away to keep the bottle inside the fridge.

Something was missing. Dad has a great connection with them and I can guess it well seeing him and them but what it is? Is it professionally or personally?

"Good night sweetie." He left with a quick kiss on forehead and to his room.

I too went to my room, changed my dress into nightwear and dropped myself on the bed.

'So it was you?'

What did he even meant by this? Do I know him before? But till I remember I haven't seen him before... Did I have amnesia that I lost some of my memories?

I got up and sat holding my pillow.

This man was making me crazy day by day. I really wish that I don't get mad at the end. Why he has to be so mysterious?

Like seriously? Why?

I dropped myself back to the bed yet these questions were only running and I was wondering what was the actual while I didn't even know when I slept.

"Didu, you are the best!" Uttra hugged me tightly as I helped her to a difficult sum according to her.

"Ofcourse when my sister is the bestest." I winked and she giggled.

"Yes I agree she is the bestest... Only in devil category." Sanskaar sat beside while uttra fumed in anger.

"Mom your son has got a big tongue please ask him to control." Uttra yelled while I chuckled.

"Long tongue? Fine I'm not getting you what you asked for, simple." Sanskaar started reading a random magazine.

"How can you do that bhai? you promised me!" Uttra stood up whining.

"Oh so remember that my son is your brother as well?" Mom came out from the kitchen.
