Chapter-14

Naina's POV

I woke up with sweat forming all over my body with the nightmare in which I was faraway from Arya. But as of now I'm with him.

Why now God? Why I'm feeling like something is going to happen? Please save me from this situation.

I can't live without him. Even his ignorance makes me feel dead. I don't want to live that life.

"Nainu, what happened?" Rithu asked concerned.

"Nothing, a nightmare."

"Drink water. You'll feel better."

I drank water and kept the glass aside.

"What did you see in that nightmare?" she asked.

"Nothing."

"Ok, get ready. We have to go to college."

I brushed off the thoughts of separating from Arya because he's my life. No one can take my life away from me.

"Ok," I replied.

After that I did my routine and changed into my dress.

We ate our breakfast and left to college for our last rehearsal for today's evening event.

We enjoyed the rehearsal. In afternoon we ate lunch and waited eagerly for the evening.

What my husband had planned now? Something was processing in that devilish brain of my husband.

Rithu and I went to our home to change into our evening attire for the party.

We went to the hall where all our friends were present with their respective partners. We hugged and wished them luck for their performances.

"Where's Karan?," I asked not finding him.

"Sorry i am late guys," He apologized. He was partner of Soumya. He was replacement of Rohan who was former partner of Soumya. Rohan got injured. It's last minute change. Lazy guy. I chuckled looking at his funny face.

"Lazy bum," I smirked.

"I knew that.," He replied smirking back. Stupid.

Then all the students took their seats. We went to the backstage for our performance.

"Good evening students and lecturers. Welcome to the festival of our college anniversary. I know you all don't know about this because I didn't tell this to anyone. This evening we are not celebrating any festival but our college anniversary. I knew if I had said about the anniversary then no one would have participated in it. So I told that it was a festival. Ok, here goes the first performance of our evening with classical dance from first year students," Principal sir addressed.

"One more thing, our college owner and partners of K&K are coming in a short while. Please enjoy the evening," He added shocking me.

No way, Dad and Papa were coming.

You all must be willing to know why I'm not excited. Of course I'm excited but I'm not sure what is going to happen this evening.

God, save me from this situation.

Unknown's POV

"Did you do what I said?" a guy asked the person in front of him.

"Yes sir," the employee replied.

"Make sure the person has to drink it," another guy said to the employee.

"Yes sir."

After that employee went outside both the persons hi-fied and smirked to each other with broad smiles on their faces.

Naina's POV

After some performances, came Rithu and Ramesh's turn. They were dancing very nicely. I could see Rohit burning with jealousy and anger.

I could see love in his eyes but he wouldn't accept it. So I should do something to bring them together.

I went to Rohit and stood beside him.

"Rohit, I think something is burning here."

"What?" he enquired.

"I think someone is jealous."

"No," he immediately replied.

"I said someone not you," I mumbled innocently.

"No... Nothing," he stammered.

I understand Rohit that you're still confused. Now, I have to take another step.

"I know you love her. Why are you denying it? Why don't you just say it?" I asked seriously.

"I like her but love..... I don't know," he sighed.

"Ok, sit here and watch. When someone will come and snatch her away from you then you won't be able to do anything. You'll regret it later. I heard that Rohan is going to ask her for a date. Maybe he'll propose her."

Sorry Rohan, I involved you in this. When you'll come to know about this then you'll feel happy for your friends.

"No way, she's mine, only mine. No one has right on her except me," he declared.

"She's not yours, ok. You only like her. Why are you so possessive about her?"

"No, she doesn't belong to anyone. She belongs to me."

"Why?"

"Because...."

"Because what?" I prompted.

"Because I love her. Yes, I love her," he said with a genuine smile.

"Yes, you love her dumbo. Go and tell her."

"Thank you so much Naina," he said hugging me tightly.

"No thanks and I can't breathe idiot," I chuckled.

"Oh, sorry!"

"Ok, go now."

He left from there as Rithu completed her performance. He dragged her from the stage. I knew something was going to happen after this.

"Looks like you're match making the couple," someone said from the backside. His hot breath was fanning my neck. I knew who he was.

"Hi professor Mr. Viraj," I greeted.

"Hello, Ms. Khanna."

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm watching how someone looks so beautiful in the night's dim light also."

"Oh! Is it a compliment or a trick to win over me?"

"It's a compliment baby. Why do you think it's a trick? Ok, wait for the surprise. Get ready to loose the game jaan."

"Are you sure you're going to win? Because I don't think so."

"I'm 100% sure. I'm not going to loose."

"Ok, I'll wait for the surprise husband."

"B...Bye," I added.

"Bye, have a great evening jaan," he said kissing my cheeks without anyone's notice.

After that Rohit and my performance arrived. We went to stage and started our dance. Our moves were in sync. Then I noticed him smiling ear to ear and my best friend was blushing. Something must have happened between them.

"Ok, all sorted?" I asked.

"Yes, she said she likes me. I'm very happy."

"Oh my god! My brother cum best friend is blushing. Aww! How cute Rohit."

"Stop it yaar. Stop teasing me."

"Ok, good. I'm happy for you bro."

"Thank you, now let's concentrate."

After that our performance ended with loads of claps and whistles from the audience. I was happy that I performed well.

But for now awaits my husband's surprise.

I greeted dad and papa with a smile because I didn't want to get caught here. I could see both of them hiding something. I had to find out.

Our principal introduced the owner cum partners of k&k college. Everyone welcomed them with huge applause.

He announced that Ms. Swetcha was not well so someone else would be switching her place. Mr. Viraj was going to select a girl from the audience.

I was not feeling good about this.

Mr. Viraj pointed his finger at some girl in the..............

Karan Pov

Why God always tests my patience.

He snatched everything from me. My parents, my brother, my loved ones. Now he broke my heart again. The I girl love belongs to someone else.

What had i done to deserve this?

Karan you're forgetting your aim. I was loosing my mind thinking about her. I should stop thinking about her..Yes she's not in my priority list. Yes i have to move on. I can't get attached to her. She's distracting me from my goal.

You're nothing but a mere attaraction. I don't love you.

Yes I don't love you.

Why are you hurting yourself?My brain scolded me for my immaturity.

I was behaving like a kid saying, I don't love her but my heart is whispering ' I Love You' Yes You love her and accepting will lessen your pain.

Yes I love you.

You'll live forever in my heart.

My heart belongs to you. May be you're in love with someone else. But this heart of mine will beat forever for you.

Oh shit I am late.

Soumya will kill me.

I quickly got ready changing my dress into tux. Thank God i was in college only otherwise that girl would have killed me. Moving to auditorium. I spotted my friends.

Where's Karan?," I heard Naina's voice. This girl always gives weird vibe.

"Sorry i am late guys," I apologized. I was replacement of Rohan who was former partner of Soumya. Rohan got injured. It's last minute change.

"Lazy bum," Naina called me.

"I knew that.," I replied smirking back.

Good evening students and lecturers. Welcome to the festival of our college anniversary. I know you all don't know about this because I didn't tell this to anyone. This evening we are not celebrating any festival but our college anniversary. I knew if I had said about the anniversary then no one would have participated in it. So I told that it was a festival. Ok, here goes the first performance of our evening with classical dance from first year students," Principal sir addressed.

"One more thing, our college owner and partners of K&K are coming in a short while. Please enjoy the evening," He added.

After some performances, Mine and Soumya's performance was already completed. Next came, Rithu and Ramesh's turn. They were dancing very nicely. I couldn't take my eyes away from her. She's so perfect.

My beautiful penguin.

What the hell?

I can't think about her like that.

Everyone enjoyed watching her dance. She dances so good. My girl got some talent. What the fuck i was saying? My girl.

I am going nuts.

People present in the hall appreciated her performance, meanwhile Rohit dragged to the corner making her frown. I couldn't stop myself invading their privacy.

" I love you. Will you be my girlfriend?," I ran from there place without hearing anything.

I couldn't stand there for one more second.

Why?

Because my heart hurts damm it.

I was all alone.

I will be alone.

This is my fate God has written for me...............
