His last breath(Completed✔)

Chapter 9

The next morning, when I open my eyes all I saw was Anjali. The bright sun shone on her face making her extremely beautiful. The next moment I find myself standing beside the bed, kissing her forehead. She seemed so peaceful when she was sleeping so I didn't wake her up. 

I freshen up and ate breakfast. I bought her breakfast and returned to the room to find her still sleeping. Goddamn, it was 11am and she still haven't wake up. I made a lemonade in the small kitchen in that hotel room. I slowly shake her shoulder to wake her up.

Anjali POV

"Anjali...Anjali...Wake up and have breakfast," I heard his voice and slowly opened my eyes. Wow what a good way to start the day. What??? What the hell am I thinking. 

"Arjun? What are you doing in my house? In my room?" his face turned complex and soon broke into a smile. An attractive smile. 

"Your room? Wake up Anjali. You were all drunk yesterday that I had to book a hotel room for you to stay. I don't even have your address," he said making me shocked. What drunk? Me? Who you kidding? I would never be drunk. Then I noticed what he said was true. I was really in a hotel room. Was I really drunk? God no!!! 

"Arjun, we didn't.. I mean... I and you... Did we??" I closed my eyes, to embarrassed to face him.

"You mean did we have sex?" he asked making me more embarassed. I just nodded. 

"I am sorry Anjali. You forced yourself on me and I cannot resist. I am a man after all," he said breaking my heart. Tears formed on its own and flowed down my cheeks without notice. I cried hard. 

"Noooo... I cant lose.. My innocence this way... NOOO...Why did this... Have to happen?...Why did you..you..call me to the party...I should not...have drunk...Should not have.." I said sobbing. 

"Heyyy Anjali I was just kidding okay? Relax..Relax.. I just wanted to tease you.. I am sorry, I am really sorry. Don't cry please.. Please," he said and hugged me.

I didn't know whether to be happy and relief that nothing happened or be angry at him for lying. I chose the former. "Please don't ever lie about it ever again Arjun. My innocnce is not a joke to you," I said wiping my tears away. 

"I am sorry Anjali. I promise I will never joke about it. But still... You are a virgin? I mean I cannot believe it," he said controlling his laughter. I hit him on the shoulder and that's when we realise how close we were sitting to each other. I felt butterflies on my stomach. 

Thankfully he changed the topic, "Come on, Have breakfast," he said.

Being so tired of hangover plus crying, I was famished. I quickly dig in the food. It was so delicious or maybe because I was too hungry. 

"Arjun, do you have my purse?" I asked him after finish having my food. "It is in the table beside the bed. Get ready and I will drop you home," Arjun said. 

"Urmm where is my car?" I asked. "I will get someone to send it to your house," he said and I nodded in approval. I took my purse to check for my phone and it was dead, probably no battery. I went home with Arjun. I noticed my uncle's car outside of my house. I quicky waved bye to Arjun and went inside.

My uncle is the only relative I have. But i'd rather not admit him as my relative as all he want is my father's money. My uncle and his wife was there. Shit, I was missing the whole night and now they going ask many questions. I really hope they came just in the morning so that I can lie going out early in the morning. I am not exactly scared of them, but scared of the topic marriage. They want me to marry their only son, Raghav so that they can have all my assets and business. I hate Raghav to the core. They gave me 5 years after my brother died for me get ready for the marriage, and now 4 years has already passed.

"Anjali where were you all the night? I was so worried for you. You should have informed before going out and you were out all night? I really hope you remember that you promised me you will marry Raghav. You were not with any guy, were you?" her so-called worry is not about me but my money and yeah that was my 'aunt'. 

"Anjali are you crazy? Dude I was calling you like forever and you were not picking up. Are you okay?" I heard Siddharth voice,concerned. 

"Sid, when did you come back?" I was surprised to see him because he was supposed to be in LA for a business deal. 

"That is not how you answer a question girl. And where is your phone?" Sid ask me remembering me that I didn't have my purse with me. As I was in a hurry leaving Arjun's car, I probably forgot that. He hugged me and checked me thoroughly. "Thank god, you are okay." 

"Sid, I will tell you later. Don't overreact okay? Tell me why are you here when you are supposed to be in LA?" I asked him. 

"Well, thanks to you. I was on my way to my meeting when I received uncle's call that you were not home all night. I fetched my private jet and got here. And you ask me not to overreact?" I was dumbfounded. 

"Uncle you didn't have to do that? I am not a kid anymore? Don't I know how to take care of me? Sid was away for a important deal and you got him here halfway? I can't believe you guys," I told him, actually shouted at him.

"Anjali, we were worried about you. How can you say that? You are soon to be our daughter-in-law. How can we not worry about you. We just wanted to ask Sid whether he knows where you were that's it," he said making me more angry. 

"Okay uncle, so if you both done remembering me about marrying your son, I suggest you leave now," I know I was rude but there wasn't a need to be polite to those who gave importance to money over relation. And I know no matter how hurtful my words were, they are going to come back to me shamelessly.

"Anjali?" I heard Arjun's voice. I was too shocked. Why is he here and when he came here? Did he hear our conversation? Did he hear that I am about to marry their son?

So, Siddharth is Anjali's best friend. Btw, her uncle and aunt have only one intention, which is MONEY. Please vote and let me know if you are liking the story. It will be a encouragement for me. Thank you for reading. Have a nice day.
