Curse Of Love

|¦ Chapter 7 ¦|

Let the game begin...

After 3 days,

Watching the people going and coming around her, Annika still couldn't believe where she was.

At airport. In India.

After whole 5 years, she came back to her country, where she was born and where she faced the life for the first time and planned her future despite everything.

A tear rolled silently on her cheek remembering the bitter past she lived.

She left her hometown forcefully and returned to it forcefully as well.

Shaking her head not wanting to enter a fit of crying again, Annika glanced left and right looking for her so called husband.

Her head still aching from spending the whole night in crying and fighting with Daksh. She literally packed her tears with her luggage that she found her eyes swollen and red with wide dark circles under them. She was forced to wear a sunglasses to hide her tiredness.

She put them up a lot in the last 5 years despite hating them in the past.

'They hide the beauty of life around you' she used to say and believe but not anymore, because from 5 years she is seeing only the ugliness of the life.

She chuckled a little remembering herself removing Shivaay's sunglasses whenever he put them with her telling him the same and making him annoyed every time.

Oh! How much she loved annoying him. He became so cute specially when she pulls his cheeks making him more annoyed.

Shivaay always thought that she did it only to annoy him but the truth was that Annika didn't like the sunglasses hiding his colorful eyes, she loved staring at them and drowning in his beautiful eyeballs. Of course she never told him that, his ego was already bigger enough.

Annika sighed spotting Daksh in a corner talking on the phone and headed toward him.

Non respectful man. He left her alone nearly for an hour to finish the transactions but he was here talking to God knows whom.

Waiting for him to end the call, she said:
''Can we go now if your so called transactions finished''

'' Sorry, it was urgent''

''Of Course. But I am tired and want to go as soon as possible.'' rolling her eyes and huffing in frustration, Annika took her luggage heading to the outside with Daksh following her.

*****

Shivaay was getting ready in his room when his brother Om entered determined to put some sense into his brother head to stop this nonsense before it is too late.

'' Shivaay, please listen to me and stop this marriage. You still have time to rethink. Please, think about yourself only for once, please. ''

Shivaay took a long breath and said totally fed up with this topic.
'' Om, please how much more we will talk about this and fought? I told you that no one is forcing me to marry, I decide it and I want it. Please just understand or at least accept this. ''

'' Both of us know that it's not true, they played very well and pushed you where they wanted you to be.''

''So? I will marry someday maybe that day is today. Why don't you think like this? ''

'' Because Annika is still there in your heart as well as in your mind. So that's why that day is not today. ''

Gritting his teeth, Shivaay glared at Om and said in rage:
'' Stop reminding me of her again and again. She is a closed chapter in my life and no one to me anymore. ''
