Chapter 47

Vikram's POV



She saw that I cooked vegetable pulav and looked at me with so much love that I literally forgot that my hand got burnt.

All of a sudden, she hugged me hard and kissed on my cheek. Oh My God !! This was the first time when I didn't have to tease her to get a reaction out of her. She is so sweet.

We all had food, all the girls were smiling with love shining in their eyes. It was a wonderful idea to cook. It also taught us that women in our life, be it our mom, wife, sister or bhabhi takes so many efforts to cook for us.

After the food, we all talked and teased each other. The soft romantic music was playing and everyone was enjoying the love in the air kind of atmosphere. Sandhya was looking so pretty. I wanted to have her to myself. Everyone said good night to each other and started going to their respective rooms. Sandhya and Maurvi also went to their room.

Gautam and I looked at each other and I said, " Yaar why did they all have to leave so early. It is just 10:30 PM. I wanted to be with my Sandhya. Didn't you want to be with Maurvi? " I asked Gautam.

" What? Of course, I wanted to be. " Gautam said with an unusual expression on his face.

" I have an idea... " I said.

" What?? "

" You convince Maurvi to stay with you. I would convince Sandhya... "

" You are mad. We can't do that... "

" Why?? we can. She is getting married to me in less than a month. By the way, we slept in the same room, when she was not even engaged."

" Shut up, Vikram. Stop saying such things, Sandhya is not like that. It is not possible. "

" I am not lying. It happened when We had gone to the camp. That idiot Sumeet sent her a threatening message and she was so scared that she came to me. She slept in my room on the chair but I picked her up and laid her on the bed to make her comfortable but I don't know when I was also engulfed by the sleep. "

" That was different yaar. Now they won't. And Maurvi would never agree to it. "

" Why ?? She is your girlfriend. Persuade her that you just want to spend some more time with her. "

" It is not that easy. And it is not right too. "

" I am not telling you to do anything, you stupid. Just spend some more time together. Don't you want her to spend more with you? "

" It is not like that... You don't understand. our relationship..." He looked confused and lost.

" Then make me understand your relationship. " I said to him. He was acting weirdly. He was not like his confident self.

" I can't be very close to her. I can't share a room with her. "

" But why? I don't understand. Why you don't want to spend more time with her? Why the hell you don't want to be in the same room? " Gautam was holding his head in his hands. I was surprised. He is never like this. What is wrong?

" Gautam you are hiding something, aren't you?? Answer me..."

" I don't know the answers... I am very confused. Ok fine, I will send the Sandhya to your room. It is up to you, how you convince her to stay with you. "

" You are avoiding the topic... "

" No. I don't know what to say. I don't know how I am feeling. I will tell you when I get to know. Till then don't ask please... "

" But tell me the problem at least. "

" How is your hand now? " He again changed the topic.

" Gautam??? " I raised my eyebrow at him but he went towards Sandhya's room. What is wrong with him??

" Vikram, go to our room she will be there in 5 minutes with the ointment to apply on your hand. "

What?? He is going to tell her that I burnt my hand?? Idiot !! But that would definitely bring her to me.

He is not an idiot. He is smart, genius. I must find out what is bothering him...

I lied down on my bed and it was not even 5 mins when the door of the opened and I saw Sandhya standing with an ointment in her hand. She looked so worried and concerned.

She came running towards me. I got up from the bed. She looked at me and then caught my arms to see which hand had a burn.

" What is this?? Why didn't you tell me?? What was the need to cook if you can't? Are you having too much pain? Did you pour cold water over it?

Did you take a pain killer? Oh god !! "

She was panicked and was again about to cry. In fact, her tears started flowing. She was crying for me once again. I just kept looking at her. I was lost in her big black eyes seemed to have cast some kind of spell on me.

I really love her. What?? Oh, yes. I LOVE HER. I can't think my life without her in it.

" Why don't you say something??? Why did you come to cook? We suggested cooking to Rahul Ji and Mehul Ji because Priya and Megha were angry with them. Why did you have to cook and get your hand burnt? It must be hurting so much. Hey, at least say something. "

" What shall I say, sweetheart? I got tongue-tied when you started talking like this. Relax, it is not as bad as it looks like. yes, I poured cold water over it. It is a simple first aid. And I am a qualified doctor. Remember?? I am fine... Don't panic. And they were trying to impress their wives with their culinary skills. So, I also wanted to impress mine. " I wiped her tears with my good hand as she was holding my other hand.

" What do you mean by Relax and don't panic? And I remember very well that you are a doctor. But you must keep it in your mind that you are not comfortable in the kitchen. You are not a chef. So, just stay away from the kitchen. There is just no need to impress your wife. You don't even have one, till now. "

" Very soon, I am going to get married to a girl. So, she will be my wife in less than a month. I wanted to impress her. Do you have a problem? " I asked teasing her.

" Yes, I have a problem. I have a problem because you got hurt. You didn't have to impress her. "

" Why, are you jealous?? I was trying to impress her as she is very important in my life. "

" Stop kidding please, I hate it when you hurt yourself. Please, don't ever try to impress your future wife with your culinary skills. You don't have to hurt yourself to gain her attention. She is already impressed by you. I mean it. " She started crying again and I took her in my arm. She buried her face in my chest. All my pain seemed to cease away.

" Hey, Hushh love, don't cry. My pain is going away. Just be there in my arms like this and I will be absolutely fine by morning. " She realised that she was hugging me very tightly. She tried to get away, But I caught her.

" You are like the best pain killer for me. Please be here, I need to tell you something. Sandhya, I can't even imagine my life without you in it. I want to spend, every second of my life with you. I LOVE YOU. " And with these words, she started crying again.

Oh god !! What did I do now?

" Sorry, If I did something wrong... Why are you crying.? "

She shook her head and said, " I LOVE YOU TOO. " She said in my chest. Did I hear correctly?
