Sandhya Pov

I went towards the garden area and picked up my secretary's call. I started roaming around while talking to her.

Suddenly I heard his voice. I froze on my original place.

What is he doing here?

He was going on a business trip. Right?

He thinks that I am Sonia. It's good.

I heard his footsteps approaching closer and my heart stopped beating.

I realised his closeness still has the same effect over my body. But I won't let him control over my emotions. Not anymore!

He stood infront of me. I scanned his features. He is wearing one of his business suits. His eyes has lost his original charm and reflects pain.

Pain!

He is still thinking that I am Sonia and talking to her. I only nodded my head in response.

He forwarded his hand for handshake but I didn't forward my hand. I guess he understood that I don't want to shake my hands with him because he backed out his hand.

He said, Satvik is a great guy and will keep Sonia happy unlike him. I noticed his teary eyes when he said those words. Regret and pain is clearly visible into his eyes.

Regret! Pain!

I wish I could have made things better but the damage is already done. For few seconds I doubted on my own decision of leaving him but before I carried away with all these rubbish emotions. I control my horse of illogical thinking and reminded myself,

'He is the same Akash Goenka who choose to accuse you for spoiling his life.'

I will never forget that. Never!

He left after congratulating and successfully creating a battle between my mind and heart.

I sighed in relief and rushed to hide myself from him.

I walked towards a pillar and stood behind it. Now nobody can see me.

I saw him going towards Sonia. Shit! Did he analyse that it was me whom he was talking few seconds before? I hope not. I crossed my fingers hopefully.

I tried to analyse what both of them are talking by judging Sonia's facial expression because his back is facing my front so, I can't see his face.

Sonia spotted me hiding behind this pillar. The moment she saw me I kept my forefinger over my lips gesturing her to not say anything.

Suddenly Akash also turn around and I instantly jerked behind the pillar hiding myself completely. Shit! I wish he had not seen me.

But for how long I will keep on hiding like this? I have not done anything wrong. Soon, I will have to face him as Sandhya.

My phone started ringing and I jerked up scaredly. Oh God! I kept my palm over my racing heart and checked the caller ID. It's Mom calling.

"Hello!", I whispered.

"Adhya! Why are you whispering?", She enquired.

"Mom I will talk to you later.", I said and disconnected the call.

I peeked a bit to see if he is still here? I found the spot empty where both of them were standing and exhaled in relief. Thank God!

"Hey baby what are you doing here?", Someone said while encircling his arms around my waist.

My eyes became wide in shock. I instantly remove his hands and turn around abruptly.

"Satvik!", I said shockingly.
