Her Secret Lover

Chapter 8

"Get married to Akshat," those were the first four words which came out from his mouth. "What!?" she asked, shocked. "Bhaiya, I don't even know him," she said. "I also didn't know your bhabhi when we first met. But look at us now," he said.

"But I don't want to get married to a person I know for only a couple of days," she said. "Arshita, you think I don't see the way he looks at you. The way you look at him," he said.

"But bhaiya, we just say hi with eyes. It doesn't mean I love him. Or he loves me. And yes, he loves someone else," Arshita said, looking down.

"Who?" he asked. "I don't know, he just said he is already in love with someone," she said again. Abhirud was dancing in his heart. Because he knew, when guys say they love someone but don't tell that girl who, that means he loves her.

"He loves you," he said. Arshita looked up. "How do you know?" she asked. "I just did a wild guess," he said. "But bhai, seriously. I don't want to get married," she said. "Think about it. Maybe you change your mind," he said and left.

Arshita sighed. What a weird conversation. But the thing that kept ringing in her mind was, he loves you. She simply couldn't believe it. How. She only knew him for about two days. And he is in love with her.

Arshita went back to her chambers since she was too tired to go back to the party. She change into her sleeping lehenga and slept.

Midnight...

Akshat was wandering around the palace when he passed by Arshita's room. He entered and saw her sound asleep. He walked over to her and caressed her forehead. "My life," he whispered. "My world," he said again. "My love," he said again and kissed her cheek. "I love you," he whispered and left her room.

He didn't know whether it was creepy to sneak in her room and kiss her while she was sleeping but he didn't care if it was...
