Chapter 48


Anthonia POV

"Awwwn...my sweetheart." Mother cooed and I smiled.

"Namaste Mother." I greeted palming both 4.

. "Bless you my child." She prayed happily.

"Where were you? I called and Aditi told me you had gone out." Mother asked and I glanced at Aditi.
. "Had to go meet an old friend Mother." I replied with a sigh as a memory came in.

"Ok..ok... I do hope you two are having fun huh?" She asked and I glanced at Aditi who rolled his eyeballs.

"Of course not Mother. It's so boring here." Aditi groaned.

"Shush! Don't you dare say that Aditi. Anthoniais Aditi treating you right?" Mother cooed and I glanced at Aditi who was staring at me as I shrugged.
. "I dunno but it's definitely a 'no'. Aditi hurts me so much. He doesn't even want to see my face." I said faking hurt and sadness as I noticed Aditi crease his brows.
.

"He doesn't act like a husband to me...it hurts a lot Mother." I whimpered.
.

"Oh my! How dare you hurt my daughter Aditi!!" Mother scolded.

"M.. Mother... you are not believing her , are you?" Aditi stuttered...

"Of course I am Aditi. Of course. How dare you treat her that way!... "

I increased the tempo of my fake tears.

. "Hush now darling. Don't mind him. He is so ignorant." Mother said.
.

"M...."

"Quiet Aditi! We sent you on a honeymoon to bond and not to spilt even more. How on earth would you two be able to give us...the Singh's household a baby if you keep up with this?" Mother scolded and I looked at her sharply, cleaning my fake tears.

"Listen...I asked for this call because of this. You two have been married for a long time now."

"Three months Mother...." Aditi groaned

"Quiet! Three months is a long time all right. You are in no way getting any younger. Your granny is also getting way too old. It wouldn't be nice if you two deny the poor woman from holding her great-grandchild. Think about this you two. You are married.. for life . cause I wouldn't want to hear of a divorce and am sure it's not going to come..."

Aditi and I let out a sigh..

"... you two are perfect for each other. Aditi... Anthoniais the only girl I would love to see you spend your entire life with and it hurts me to see you two divided. It hurts your Father, Janvi,Jaya, Lara, everyone. For our sake,try see the bright side of your union..."

"Anthonia...?"
I looked up at the her In the screen.

"Yes Mother?"

"If Aditi proves stubborn,then handle him. Same goes to you Aditi. Tho you two are married, you still haven't sealed your union and it's not a good thing. All we need is a child... children. Is it too much to ask for?..."

I bit my lower lip.

"I'll have to go now. Good night to you two." She waved and the call ended.

I stared at the bedding in silence,so did Aditi.

We both didn't make any move for a long time.

Gosh!
I feel so confused,so trapped.

Everyone wants us to be together but...I don't want to spend my life with a grumpy @ss like Aditi.

He doesn't like me, we hate each other presence so how would it be possible to bond, and to think that everyone is looking unto us for a child...

Ugh!
This is so horrible!

Aditi let out a sigh reaching for the laptop as he closed it and got off the bed heading for the table.
.he carefully dropped the laptop and picked up his pack of cigarette, opened it,took out a stick and litted it before heading to the balcony.

In no time,I could perceive a whiff of smoke.
Ugh!
He's at it again... smoking....

Janvi once said he smokes when thinking about something relating to what I can't really remember.....

Could it be he is also bothered as much as I am over his Mother request?

I face palmed myself and exhaled deeply.

I seriously don't want this in anyway but...ugh!

I placed the pillows between where Aditi and I would lay as usual then I laid down to sleep.

Morning....

As I brushed my long hair, Aditi exited the bathroom all damp and fresh from the shower in a towel.

This wasn't the first time I would see him that way,but, I was lost...

The tattoo suited him, his pink n!pples.
Gosh!
Those wet lips that are surprisingly pink despite how hard he smokes.

. I bit my lower lip and looked away, styling my hair into a messy bun.

My red summer dress suited me a lot with the yellow flower prints all over it.

Aditi had already gotten a blue long sleeved top which he pulled on.
It was not clingy... neither baggy, just perfect.

Makes me wonder,does this dude ever apply body lotion?

He took out a black jogger pants and headed back into the bathroom.

I let out a sigh and exited the room when I heard the suite bell.

Our breakfast had arrived.
The attendant carefully fixed everything on the table, bowed and made an exit.

I picked up a bottle of wine, blue wine.
I scanned through it and as expected, it had alcohol.

Typical Aditi.

I heard footsteps and placed the wine back on the table.
Aditi walked up to the table and drew a seat and sat down as he began to serve himself.

It's a good thing he is doing that because this isn't India where I would serve him.

He had already begun to eat while I glared at him.
It was as if I was totally invisible.

"You had better have your seat and eat up. We have a long day ahead." Aditi suddenly uttered and I furrowed my brows at him.

"Huh? What do you mean?" I queried and as expected, I got silence as the best answer ever!
So great!

I sat down and helped myself with the meal and began to eat.
But not without Mother's request playing in my head.
As much as I want to make her happy,I still can't...I can't.

Later...
*

I settled for an off shoulder short flay dress which was purple in color.
The off shoulder had cool stones around it .
My feet had a black flat and I ran over a quick make up.


Aditi still hadn't told me where we were going to and if not for the fact that I was bored,then I would have surely sat back in this suite.
.. I watched as he pulled on his regular ornaments.

To think I share a bed with India's hottest CEO feels weird.

If not for Dad..or Nathasha... maybe... maybe..I would still be a single teenager by now....

Aditi picked up his cellphones and exited the room.
He dressed so hot that I had to admit it.

I glanced at my reflection and headed out.
When I got to the longue,he was unto a call.... and it finally came to an end.
..

He glanced at his gold wristwatch and scoffed.

"Took you so much time to......." He turned to look at me and paused on his words as I arched a brow.

Aditi cleared his throat slightly and headed out.
I rolled my eyeballs and followed him out.
