Accidental Attachment

next day

Sree

I woke up in the morning,... Why do I feel so sore,..i thought as I opened my eyes..
And I almost shouted in my shock as I saw myself .. There was a blanket drawn over me..

Last night... I felt my cheeks turn red as I realized what we had done,.. and he didn't love me.. we had fought before..

Why did he do it then, how could I have accepted it...

He wasn't there near me.. I quickly went and ended up having a long bath...

I was shocked seeing on how I looked,...
There were blue marks on my neck and other places..

This was my first time, with Vikram..
Does he like me? Love me? Was it because of the story I told him... Or did he do that because he was jealous of Gautham..

Lots of questions but no answers, only one person to answer it..

After what happened yesterday how can I face him.... I blushed looking into the mirror..

I decided to take leave from the office..
I went and took out my phone..

There were 2 missed calls from Gautham..

He had messaged too

Gautham: hey Devi sorry for yesterday,
How did things go with Vikram, ur fine right?

What do I reply.. I had no idea what had happened..

I dialed Vikram's number where was he..

He didn't pick up the phone..

I went down to the kitchen

"Mary, did you see Vikram sir? ", I asked her..

" No ma'am", she told..

"Where did he go in the morning! "

I searched the house, but he wasn't anywhere..

I went back to the fridge and took some ice to apply..

Mary looked at me suspiciously

"Is the breakfast ready Mary! ", I asked her as she was staring at my neck.

" Y... Yes.. Ma'am just I'll cut these apples, that's it", she said

"No.. Need, I'll take care.. You can leave ", I said..

She nodded and left..

Moments of yesterday's night passed through my mind.. My entire body flushed as I recollected how it felt.

I was applying ice on my neck.. When I heard footsteps..

I stood up as I saw Vikram.. His hair seemed wet and he was wearing a casual shirt.

He didn't look at me.. And went into the kitchen..

I followed him.. He opened the fridge and took out water to drink..

I hesitated.. To speak.. Seeing him after last night.. My heart beat fast, that was a new version of him.. I had never seen..

"Vikram", I said softly..

He didn't respond..

" I.. We.. Need to talk.. "I said

He turned around to me, but didn't meet my eyes..

" Last night was a mistake ", he said before I could say anything

My heart shattered into pieces as I couldn't believe that he actually told that!
No he couldn't mean that! No! His eyes had said otherwise yesterday! , why would he say something like this!
