Farida's POV
Words can't explain how flabbergasted I was when I saw Aayan on a wheelchair , I kept telling myself this is definitely a joke !
I later summoned the courage to speak after a prolonged silence,"CEO what's all this?" I asked swallowing a bitter saliva while placing my hand on my waist trying so hard to sound funny as usual
"Why do you like playing a lot ?" I asked trying so hard to smile
"Princess Farida it is what it is " He replied with a smile looking at his legs ,
" I'm paraplegic" He announced sounding more calmer than a healthy and happy person can ever sound .
I stood there dumbfounded, lost for words ...........
"But you drive , remember the first day we met at coldstone?" I asked him still waiting for him to stand up and tell me this is all a joke .
"Yes I drive, but have you ever seen me walk ? Remember the first day we met you were furious at me for hitting you on the laps with my car door ?
Remember how you were much more furious when I refused to come out of the car and apologize like a gentleman would ? Well it's because I'm paraplegic so I couldn't come out of the car and apologize but I'm sorry " He said with a very genuine smile that melted my heart away .
"Whaaaat ! So the mean Aunt cries? What a scene!" He said trying to pull a joke , that was when I realized my tears had rolled down to my cheeks
"Oh yes and I'm also sorry about our second meeting when I was in the pool and I splashed water on you and I didn't come out of the pool to apologize , because I'm paraplegic .
Remember you kept calling me a kid for using a flotation device in a pool ?well with my condition I can't swim on my own " He explained furthermore making me cry much more ,"I'm....... I'm .......I'm so sorry...... I'm truly sorry I was really mean to you all this while and you never showed me your anger " I said in tears as I knelt before him secretly admiring his strength and maturity in handling his condition.
"Shhshh please ma'am don't cry ,if not your guards will beat the life out of me " He said still smiling
"Excuse me please" Laila said looking like a thief as she left us alone
"Really Aayan ? Why are you still cheerful? After all I have done to you ? You are still so lively and jovial despite your condition . I have seen many people who are always frustrated because they are paraplegic but you , you are a superman " I said looking at him with admiration .
Aayan's POV
She looked so beautiful despite crying ,I felt like tearing my skin just to use it and wipe away her tears . I'm not in love with princess Farida but I just can't bare to see her in agony, I so much enjoy her company especially when she used to scold me a lot .
"Hey ice cream guy " she called out to me bringing me back from my thoughts , as she snapped her fingers across my face
"Sorry I was lost " I replied smiling
"Lost thinking about ice cream right ?" She said trying to smile with the dried tears on her face
"Yes princess Farida. so you were asking how can I still be this jovial despite my condition? While many are always frustrated " I said to her
"Let's take a walk if you don't mind down the streets , it's evening already so the sun will set very soon and I will answer your questions" I said politely
"Alright" she replied smiling as she used her palm to clean the remaining tears on her face as she led us out of the compound .........
