Chapter-29

Naina's POV

"I'm Naina Shourya Khanna."

She stood there like a statue. For sometime she didn't say anything but then uttered a single word.

"What!" Saying this she fainted.

I got panicked but my brother and husband were laughing.

I gave a hard glare to both of them to stop laughing.

"Brother bring water, fast."

He nodded his head and ran to the kitchen. Few seconds later he brought water.

I sprinkled water on her face. Slowly she opened her eyes.

"Rithu are you okay?" I asked giving water to her for drinking.

"I'm fine Naina. I fainted because I got the biggest shock of my life."

I felt guilty as I kept this as a secret. I didn't know how she would react.

"I'm sorry," I apologised.

"But why?"

"Because I kept my relationship as a secret."

"I'm happy. You got a great person as your husband but I feel hurt too because you didn't share it with me earlier."

"I'm sorry Rithu. If I had said I was married then everyone would have treated me differently."

"Why did you keep it as a secret from me?"

"Ok, I'll tell you everything."

Flashback:

Two years ago

After confirmation of our marriage date we went to our first date where he arranged everything according to me.

He took permission from my parents for this date. They agreed immediately.

Moreover, why won't they? He's their favourite.

"You look beautiful," He complimented me.

"Thank you," I said not meeting his eyes because looking in them I would have definitely fallen for him.

I didn't want to fall easily in love with him but his eyes were making me crazy.

He knew every single thing about me. After Ron went away I distanced myself from him supposing he would forget about me.

But he could get help from my closed ones. My own sister and his sister-in-law would definitely help him at any cost forgetting about me.

Date's arrangement was awesome. I wouldn't forget it for the rest of my life. For this beautiful date he put so much efforts just to bring a smile on my face.

"Did you like the surprise?" He asked.

"It's beautiful," I said admiring the view.

"Shall we?"

"Yeah sure."

We talked about our likes and dislikes. I wanted to ask about his relationships before agreeing for the marriage.

I think he noticed my hesitation so next what he said took my nervousness away.

"You can ask me anything. I won't mind."

"Do you have any girlfriend?"

"No, I don't have any flings also but I loved a girl." His confession broke my heart.

"Oh!" I exclaimed hiding my tears which were ready to flow anytime.

"Yes, I loved a girl but I didn't say to her. I still love that girl. She lives in my heart everyday, every single minute. I can't forget about her even for a single second. I can't live without her. I've been loving her for many years. I don't think it will fade easily. Meanwhile, Dad asked me to marry you so I said yes," He said confessing his love for some other girl in front of his future wife.

Every word form his mouth broke my heart into million pieces. I always dreamt of my husband being my first and last love. I wanted him to be like this. He would only love me but my first date with my future husband proved to be exact opposite because in the first place he should have confessed to me instead of an unknown girl. I hate myself for being in this situation.

"But why did you agree to marry me? Why didn't you confess your love to her?"

"Because I want to, now."

"What?" I asked not understanding his idiotic answer.

"My parents asked me to marry you and I never got a chance to express my love to her.  She'll be my life in future. She belongs to me only. I'll make her mine in every possible way."

He's definitely mad. When he loves someone else then why would he agree to marry me? He's making me mad too.

"Are you out of your mind?" I asked frowing

"I  think no because my mind is in the right place."

"You're mad," I said annoyed and stood up from my chair.

"You're jealous."

"Why will I be jealous and what for?" I folded my arms across my chest.

"You're jealous of my love for that girl."

"No way."

"I thought you will understand but you'll always be my dumb Naina," He said winking.

Jerk! How dare he call me dumb? I want to kill him. I'll go and tell dad to call off the marriage.

"I'm not dumb you idiot."

"Yes, you are because you're still the same Naina who is innocent and cute and doesn't understand people's words easily who are acting and teasing." He teased.

"I'm not going to marry you. I'll tell my parents to call off the wedding."

"You're not going to do that," He glared.

He came very close to me such that I could feel his breath on me which was making my heart run like a marathon.

"I will and you can't stop me," I dared smirking.

"You think I won't stop you? I will because you'll always be my drama queen who makes my heart flutter with her every single glance."

What did he mean by that?

"What do you mean?"

Next what he said made my heart leap with joy.

"I mean to say that the only girl I love in this world is you. My heart beats only for you. I've been in love with you for the past twelve years. I know you don't feel the same about me. When Karan left everyone you distanced yourself from me. I thought I would forget you with the passing time but it didn't happen. You're the only girl who makes my heart go wild. You are my first love and will be my last love too. No one can take your place in my heart. You thought I loved someone else but you're wrong. I loved you, I love you and I'll always love you only. I wanted to see your reaction when I talk about some other girl but I was talking about you only. You're the love of my life. I can't think about any other girl. You've captured my heart and my mind."

His confession was over but what about me?  Yes, it's true I love him but I didn't say this to anyone, not even my closed ones. I thought it won't be possible but deep in my heart he was the one who made my heart beat fast.

"As I wanted to see your reaction I think I did right by doing this because it confirmed that you too have feelings for me but you're not opening up to me. I'll wait for that day. I won't force you to love me," He said breaking me from my chain of thoughts.

"Ms. Naina Kapoor will you marry me?" he asked forwarding his hand towards me.

"Yes," I said hugging him tightly. I let my tears of happiness fall for my new life.

"Don't let your precious tears fall for me. I can't see you weeping. It makes my heart bleed. I won't let any harm come to you. I'll always be by your side," He said wiping my tears.

"When you said you loved someone my heart broke into million pieces. That time I thought I won't be in your life again. Everytime I think that I won't be yours, it hurts my heart. I can't bear that pain."

I hid all these in my heart but now I was opening to him because he was the person with whom I was going to share my pain, sorrow, happiness and success.

"I'm in love with you from years but I thought I didn't deserve you so I hid it. Whenever I thought of some other girl being with you it killed me. I thought my dream will never come true. I thought I only loved you but never have I ever thought that you would love me too like crazy," I said making him chuckle.

"I think we both are crazy," He stated.

Yes, we both were crazy because we loved each other but didn't confess.

What if our parents didn't ask for marriage? Then it wouldn't have happened.

But it happened because it was planned in our destiny.

We were meant to be together.

"What if I married some other guy and you married some other girl?"

He glared at me and tightened his grip on me. I think I did wrong by saying that.

"Don't even think about that because I'll kill the person who comes to marry you. You're mine." His nails dug into my skin.

"I'm so sorry," I apologised holding my ears showing a cute pout.

"Don't keep your face like that. I can't control myself." It made me blush.

"I love you my fiance," I said embracing him.

"I love you too my future wifey," He said with a glowing smile on his face.

"Ok, let's go. It's getting late." He dragged me towards the car.

"Ok," I said holding his hand.

After that he drove to my house, dropped me at the gate and kissed my cheek.

I went inside my room and changed clothes for the mission which was very important..........
