Chapter 37

Sagar's POV



" Sagar was in a coma for more than 6 months. Then it took him 6 more months to recover fully. " I finally told her. She was shocked her jaw dropped.

" What?? Seriously?? When ?? How??" Her eyes started getting moist. In less than half a minute, tears started flowing from her eyes. I wanted to hug her.

" Calm down he is fine now. " I said to her.

" How did he have the accident?? " she asked.

" Let's not get into all that... "

" You said as if it was because of me."

" Oh! I overreacted that day. Don't worry. " I wanted to calm her down. I didn't want her to feel guilty.

" Just tell me... why and how he met an accident? "

" Why are you so concerned now?? "

" Err... I am... Just curious. "

" Ok, the food is awesome. Right?? What is your most favourite food? " I changed the topic

" I asked you something. " She said glaring at me.

" I also asked you what food do you like?? "

" Sahil, please... "

" Why are you so curious about him, when you don't even talk to him? "

" I don't know. "

" Why do you avoid him?? Why didn't you asked all these things from him? "

" Please tell me. How and when did he meet with the accident? "

" After you left, he was totally lost. He was trying to find you everywhere. He kept waiting for you on the day of our result but you didn't come to take your result. So he asked Anshu about you. She said that you left school and has left the city as well. He requested her to give your address or contact number but she said that she didn't have it. "

" Then ?? "

" He thought she was lying... Like she was your best friend, how was that possible that she didn't have your number. so he followed her and kept asking her about your contact number. But she did not give. The guy, you both were talking that day outside our school, punched him. Sagar kept requesting for your address or number but that guy didn't listen and gave him a good beating. He told him to stay away from Anshu and you as you were his sister as well. Anshu's brother said he would kill him if he ever tries to ask that again from Anshu. "

" So?? "

" He had beaten him a lot and after that Sagar was coming home he was driving and still thinking about you when his car was hit by a truck. It was a head-on collision. "

" Oh god !! I am sorry. "

" It was not your fault. "

" But it was, even you said. "

" Forget about what I said. Now listen, I want to ask you something? I answered your queries. Now you answer mine. "

" Ok... "

" Do you like Samar?? "

" What?? Why do both of you keep asking the same question?"

" Tell me "

" Yes... I like him. "

" What?? So you want to marry him? "

" Hell no!! He is a nice person. I like him as a person. "

Thank god!!

" So what are you going to do about it? "

" I don't know... I think I will talk to Samar, he would have to refuse. "

" Why can't you??"

" I can't. Uncle has done a lot for me, us. "

" That is utter nonsense. You can't spend your whole life with someone you don't love. "

" Sahil, leave the topic. "

" Sagar loves you, Damini. He has always loved you. He has never even thought about another girl. Please at least give him a chance. He will keep you happy."

" I don't want to talk about him."

" Then whom do you want to talk about? Samar?? "

" Sahil, please leave... "

" I won't, till you tell me why you left without telling him anything didn't you know about his feelings? "

" I didn't tell him because he didn't deserve to know. "

" What do you mean by that?

" I meant what I said... He didn't have any feelings for me. It was all a big game for him. " She said and I literally lost my mind and I started walking towards her and she started walking backwards.

" What?? Are you out of your mind? " How can she even say that?

" No, I am thankful that I didn't fell for his charm. Thank God, I saw, what I saw that day. " I went closer to her she took some haste steps back.

" Is it ?? And what may I ask, you saw?? " She looked angry too. She was accusing me of something I didn't even know that I did.

" Let it be... It is not worth repeating. " By now there was only about a foot of space between us.

" Are you sure?? So you don't feel anything for him ? "

She tried to get away from me but she could not as her body touched the wall. She was caged between wall and me. I put my arms on the wall locking her inside.

" No... not at all. Sahil, what is this?? Getaway? You can't hold me like this... "

" So, you don't feel anything when he touches you? "

" No! Get away. " She slapped me hard. But I didn't even blink. I was looking at her because she was angry and was looking very hot.

" You don't feel anything when he looks at you? Or when he kisses you?" I touched her chin. She slapped my hand away from her chin. I was still looking at her closely.

" NO !! No, how dare you touch me Sahil? Move away..." She slapped me again. She was extremely furious. Tears were flowing from her eyes and she looked as if she would kill me. I kept looking at her as she was looking absolutely beautiful. I am glad she slapped me. She thought that I was Sahil.

" Calm down, beautiful. " I said and she looked into my eyes.

" Sagar ?? You, you are not Sahil. You are Sagar ?? You are Sagar? Right? " She asked but I knew that she recognised me.

" Yes, I am Sagar." She closed her eyes for a few seconds and released a long breath. As if, she was somewhat relieved to know that.

" I am Sagar. Sagar, who is crazy about you. Sahil would not dare to come this near to you ever. I couldn't go away from you, so stayed here just to be around you. Now say what you were saying to Sahil. You don't feel anything when I look at you?? Your body does not shiver with a mere touch of my hand?? Your heart doesn't beat harder when I am this close to you?? You don't like to be in my arms?? You don't love being kissed by me?? Say whatever you want, deny whatever you want. But you as well as I know that You are as attracted to me as I am. Your body reacts to mine. Your heart beats for me just as mine does for you. I don't know what is the problem, but I know you loved me then too. You cared for me then. And you care for me even now... "

" No, I don't love you... Never have... Would never love you... I don't care... Have never cared ... Would never care about you. now leave me or I will shout. '

" I don't care.... you do whatever you want. Shout, call Samar, Sahil, Mathur uncle, police anyone, deny your feelings for me or slap me. But you can't marry him. "

" You can't decide for me. "

" I can and I will. "

" It is my life. So I will decide. "

" You have only one choice if you want to choose and that is me. Sagar Malhotra."

" Who are you to decide, whom I want to spend my life with?? "

" I am your would-be husband. I will decide too, as this decision affects my life too. "

" Shut up !! "

" We will tell your parents and uncle that we are in love for more than a decade. "

" No... I can't do that."

" Why??? Can't you see he is not your type? "

" Ok, Then who is? Do you even know my type?? "

" Yes, I know. And he is not serious about you. "

" And you are??? Please spare me. I am not stupid now. "

" What does that mean now?? "

" You know, what I mean. "

" No, I don't know what you are talking about. Explain. "

" I am not doing any such thing. You know very well. "

" For god's sake stop this and tell me why you say that?? What have I done to you? Tell me what you think, I know very well. Tell me what did you see to have such hateful feelings towards me. I swear I have been dying to know that...."
