Story of an Orphan Girl. ✔️

Chapter 13 ( His embrace is my home )

Sandhya Pov

I stood there in confusion while trying to process what he meant by that?,

'I won't let you go away from me so easily',

It seems like his words have some deep hidden meaning, maybe I am the one who is overthinking and he just said it casually,

Ignoring Akash's words, I went towards the entrance of the party hall,

Oh God! Crowd, I am not very fond of crowd, it suffocates me, I didn't thought this party is going to be so huge and gathering will be so massive,

Well, it's Mami's success party and she is such a great and loving personality everyone wants to be the part of her celebration, so the crowd is obvious,

I swing my head in all directions to find someone known, I found Riya Mami and Karan Mamu they were standing with some group of people, I guess they must be their business associates, they were talking, laughing and enjoying with eachother,

It will be so awkward if I will go and join them because they all are elders, I will become odd one out between them, so I dropped my plan to visit them and restart my search for another known face,

Urrrrr! This dress code is not at all helping me, all the females are dressed in red while all the males are dressed in white, I can't even recognize someone by their unique dress colour,

Now I am regretting coming inside alone, I should have been waited for Kareena aunty and Rahul uncle or maybe for Akash, instead of coming here alone,

"Booh!", Someone shouted closer to my ear,

My heart jumped along with my whole body, because of this instant jump my heels twisted and I lost my balance, shit! I stretched my hands, in hope to grab whatever I can, to protect myself from falling and thanks to God my hands found something, I squeezed my eyes and grabbed that material tightly as if my whole life depends on it,

Suddenly I felt some tingling sensation on my waist like a snake is trying to crawl around it, oh God!, I reopened my eyes instantly while clutching the material which my hands are grabbing with more intensity,

My black orbs came in contact with the pair of brown orbs, I have seen this mesmerising eyes somewhere, my eyes continued to adore the glittering effect of two familiar orbs,

I lowered my eyes and realised that my hands are clutching the collar of Akash's tuxedo while his arms are secured around my waist, the whole world around me seems vanishing, I can stay like this forever 'without even complaining', his embrace warms my heart, it feels like this is the place where I belongs, it's my home, 'his embrace is my home',

What?, Home?, Akash embrace?, Are you gone nuts?, From where all this thoughts are coming in your mind?, Control your emotions Adhya, I scolded myself,

After self realization I composed myself, Akash help me to stand properly on my feet, after being sure that I am fine he moved away from me,

I miss his warmth, I miss my home,

Oh God! Something is definitely wrong with me, why I am thinking all such things?,

"So, I was right about the petition, Haan?", Akash said teasingly,

Petition?, I became confused, wait! Is he talking about colliding petition?,
