Chapter 34:

Annika didn’t know what to do…

She forgot how she was breathing till now?

How do you breathe?

For the life of her, Annika doesn’t know how to breathe, how to move her facial muscles, she couldn’t even figure out what’s going on since her mind had gone to shut down mode..

There was only one thing clear in her…

The rising of heart beat…

Lubb…

Dubb…

Increasing it’s beating pace along with it’s sound..

Her eyes refused to look away from those azure eyes…

If she had to admit it herself, those eyes had been the first thing she saw in him and it held her captivated ever since she saw those eyes..

Goosebumps had already risen on her skin when he pulled her hand like he owned her..

The mere thought of skin contact with him is enough to make her tremble, her toes curled..

Why he’s asking her to.. to marry…?

And that too him…?

What’s going on…?

“Will you marry me Annika?”

He asked again and that’s when she noticed it that it was not Shivaay who asked her..

She had been too concentrated on how Shivaay grabbed her and her concentration was fully on his eyes and the ring he held in his hand that she failed to notice another person in the room..

Those words were not uttered by Shivaay but Daksh..

How could she?

How could she didn’t realize the voice..?

How could she even dared to think Shivaay Singh Oberoi will ask her of all people.?

How could she stand there mesmerized by his eyes without even noticing another person besides Shivaay..?

Daksh knelt down on the ground, in front of her, getting the ring from Shivaay and looked at her, waiting for the answer..

Annika’s legs trembled and she shook her head at Daksh and turned her back to the scene of Shivaay just standing there and started running…

No….

She cannot afford to be weak…

She has work..

But she wants to go home..

Annika gritted her teeth and started working on the decorations for haldi tomorrow so she could go home early..

Shivaay fumed and vented his anger on Daksh..

“Haven’t I told you, she’s not that type of girl to just accept anyone’s proposal? See, you scared her and made her feel uncomfortable that she ran away.”

“Come on Shivaay.. Even if she didn’t say yes to me, she will think about me all night and when I ask her tomorrow, she will definitely say yes..”

“Daksh, I am warning you.. If you disturb her like that, I will forget who you are”

“Why Shivaay? Why are you overreacting? I like her and want to marry her.”

“I am not overreacting Daksh.. I agreed to your craziness today because you were emotionally blackmailing me with your suicide but not anymore. She’s from ordinary background. It was I who brought her to my world as a wedding planner. I am responsible for her as long as she stays here. I do not want anyone to disturb her or hurt her. Do you understand?”

Daksh just smiled at him and whistled while going out of his room.

Damn it…

Shivaay alone knew how heart wrenching was it..

There was a raging volcano inside him, burning him, making his head hot enough that he couldn’t see anything properly..

Shivaay loosened his tie and pulled it out and laid down on the bed..

He thought, he can go and do some office work since he’s alright but no… With the way his mind is, he didn’t know if he can work.

God damn it…

Shivaay had a strange urge to throttle Daksh’s neck when he asked Shivaay to bring Annika to him and be there for him as a moral support.

Ugh…

What’s wrong with him.?

He wants to kill his own friend? His mind is going all hazy.

He’s always the calm and collected one, he never gives into his emotions. He had never let his emotions bother him but this is getting out of his hands ever since…

Ever since he met her…

Shivaay cannot take his eyes off her smile purer than anyone’s, her wavy hair, her innocent eyes yet bold mouth unafraid of speaking the truth, her independent nature of not relying on anyone..

She’s different from the girls he had seen in his life whom they all fawn over him, they were all fake smiles and money minded..

But she’s like an oasis in his desert and Shivaay cannot take his eyes off her no matter how much he tried to not to..

If he analyzed his feelings a little further..

It’s as if he wants to possess her.. Posses her every smile, her every word, her every second to be his..

No…

No….

He can never go around analyzing his emotions… He cannot afford to..

That is not like him..

Emotions only exist in Shivaay Singh Oberoi when it comes to his brothers and brothers alone.

——————————–

Annika put the code of newly security system Shivaay had installed in her home no matter how much she insisted she can take care of herself but after Dadi had strictly advised of the danger of a girl staying alone in her home, Annika reluctantly agreed and Shivaay had installed high security system in her home that no one can enter except her.

Annika closed her house and she let her emotions take her which she had been holding in through out the day, enduring everything till she finishes work..

She dropped her bag and moved towards the mirror..

This is it….

There is no turning back…

Annika had been fooling herself all this time but today she has to face her emotions..

Annika is not the one who runs away from anything and least of all her own emotions..

She looked at herself in mirror and asked aloud,

“What were you going to say?”

Annika asked herself, remembering the time when she thought it was Shivaay who asked her to marry him…

“Yes…”

Annika knew it….

She was going to say yes if Daksh hadn’t spoken again..

Annika could see her face crumpling with sorrow in the mirror so she moved away and laid on her bed..

She was going to say yes…

Yes Shivaay… I will marry you..

Annika’s heart throbbed and she clutched her shirt and curled like a cat on her bed..

Why..?

Why was she going to say yes?

How could she think of saying yes?

Memories of from the moment they met rushed in her mind, overwhelming her with emotions.

He was cruel and arrogant…

Yet he was kind and good to her after realizing his mistake..

He’s rich and smart…

Yet he treated her well in his house..

He holds her or grabs her hard enough to bruise…

Yet he held her tenderly when in need..

He was always teasing and trying to pull one over her..

Yet he takes her work seriously…

He is devil all the time…

Yet he shows his angelic side sometimes..

Why..?

Why can she never takes her eyes off him?

Now that she looks into the memories, she felt as if she was always seeking him out, wanting to be with him in one way or another with silly excuses..

Why..?

Why does it have to be him of all people..?

He’s Shivaay Singh Oberoi…

And yet she had fallen in love with him..

Tears leaked around her eyes, soaking the bed cover and Annika hugged herself, her whole body trembled with the emotions…

No… This cannot be right…

Yet…. She cannot run away from facing her feelings anymore..

Not after when she was going to say yes to his proposal..

She loves Shivaay…

She loves his eyes..

She loves his rare smile and tender look when he’s with his brothers..

She loves his fierce protective nature towards his family..

She loves his oh so egoistical arrogant behaviour since it has it’s own charm..

May be she had fallen for him even before.. She just didn’t realize it..

Maybe when he danced with her, his hands everywhere in her body..

Maybe when he sunk his teeth in her, making her feel things like never before..

Maybe when he came to her with just a ring when she was afraid of being alone..

May be when he restored everything he destroyed..

Maybe when he pushed her into the pool and grabbed her hand before putting her in jail..

May be when they first met at the temple..

She didn’t know when…?

She couldn’t even tell properly why..?

She couldn’t analyze how..?

But she has fallen for him..

She just has fallen for him with all her heart..

Her very first love…

Annika had always, always believed and told herself that to never fall for anyone since it will ruin her completely and she knew it..

If she loves, she loves hard that she will sunk in the darkness and will lose herself in it..

The days of orphanage, being an orphan, not wanted by anyone, longing for someone…

She thought those days are gone but now she felt like the same girl again..

Why…?

Why does it have to be him..?

At least she didn’t have to worry about him leaving her since he never was hers.

He’s getting married in three days..

And she just realized her love..

Even if she realized her love before, nothing’s gonna change..

You can watch the moon only from afar but you can not be close to the moon..

He’s Shivaay Singh Oberoi..

And the irony of it all…

She’s the wedding planner of the man she had fallen in love with..

Annika suppressed the sobs and let it out, knowing she has to put on an act from tomorrow..

She pressed her lips which wanted to yell I love you Shivaay..

She cannot even say it aloud…

She doesn’t has the right…

You can’t get all the things you wish for and Annika at an early had learnt very well that she’s the most unluckiest person and she can never wish, only see..

Shivaay….

Annika’s body trembled with muffled sobs and she drifted to sleep, her mind tired of all the overwhelming emotions, with tear tracks on her cheeks, her eyes closed which were red and swollen from all the crying..

——————————

Shivaay irritatingly put the yellow dress on for his haldi and styled his hair..

He refused to look at his face in the mirror, his eyes were as if accusing him..

Shivaay never regretted his decisions but ever since he agreed to the marriage with Tia, he’s plagued with second thoughts and doubts..

Its irritating him..

He cannot even bear Tia for few seconds even though she did nothing wrong..

It all began when he met Ann….

His thought was cut down when Om came into his room almost running.

“What happened Om?

“Shivaay.. Rudra.. Rudra..”

Om heaved, taking long breaths..

“What happened to Rudra..?”

Shivaay’s heart felt like being squeezed painfully..

“He refuses to come out of his room Shivaay.. No matter what I say, he refuses to even speak.”

(A/N: I had some of you fooled into thinking Shivaay proposed.. Come on, Shivaay is too stubborn..

Anyway.. How was the chapter? Let me know your thoughts..
