It started with an Accident...

Chapter 30

Mahi's POV

He was so shocked that his eyes became the size of tennis balls and his jaw touched the floor.

" WHAT?? No!! "  He almost yelled.

" Why? " 

" Are you out of your mind? "  He asked looking away.

" Yes!! I am, and I want to kiss you because I know that you are older and want to kiss girls, so kiss me instead. I want to learn to kiss. "  I said boldly though I was feeling shy, but I was desperate to show him that I was in love with him.

" No, Mahi!! "  He was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

" Why not? " I asked.

" I don't want to. I can't. You are too young and... Don't talk to me like that, please.  "  He said and pulled his hand out of mine and turned to go. I came to stand in front of him.

" But I love you. " I said and he was rooted to the place.

" What?? No!! It's not love. Just a crush maybe or infatuation. " He said, avoiding looking at me and looking around instead.

" How do you know?? You don't know anything about me. I love you since that day you saved me. "  I said boldly.

" It was my duty, Mahi. I don't love you. I can't. " He said looking away.

" Why?  Am I not good enough to be your girlfriend? I know I am not as pretty as other girls, that you flirt with but I love you and they don't, they just want you as you are extremely good-looking, rich, and popular. But I love you even if you were not handsome or rich or popular. " I said and my eyes were filled with water. He looked at me and for a fraction of a second, I saw some kind of frustration and guilt on his face, my hope increased when he took a step towards me and then the hope was shattered the very next moment when he took two steps away and shook his head.

" There is nothing like that. You are very pretty, in fact, you are a little princess. We all love you. You know that. "  He said trying to make me feel good.

" No! Talk about yourself.  What do you think of me? "  I asked.

" You are Manik's younger sister for me. Nothing more, nothing less. "  He said looking away.

" But I love you. Only you. "  I said and tears started flowing from my eyes.

" No, Mahi! Don't say that, please. "  He almost pleaded with me, he looked sad and upset too.

Was it such a bad thing that I loved him?  Why did he look sad, upset, or frustrated? Was he frustrated with me?  That I was asking him again and again.

I tried not to bother him more but I could not help it, I wanted to tell him everything as it took me more than a year to tell him my feelings. I wanted to tell him how much I love him.

" I am in love with you, I even told my parents..." I said boldly. His mouth opened as he heard that.

" What are you saying? What did you tell them? " He asked me as if I just told him that I planted a bomb in his home.

" That I love you and want to get married to you. " I replied.

" What?? How can you do that?"  His face became white.

" I can, I tell everything to my parents. I love you, so told them."  I replied.

" Oh, God! Mahi, what have you done?? You should not have done that... Didn't they get offended??  "  He said looking scared.

" No, My mom and dad are okay with it, if you will not insist I leave my home and go to live with you at your place after we will get married. Now, can you please kiss me? " I assured him and asked again like an idiot.

Was I so desperate for his attention??

" No! " He said firmly.

" If you can kiss so many girls, why can't you kiss me?  I want to know, why people kiss." I was getting frustrated with his rejection. And I don't know, why was he behaving like that?

" Oh, God! Mahi, what happened to you, you are too young to think about all this. Please don't talk about all that. I am already so embarrassed that you saw me kissing,  you are so young and innocent. I am too old for you. You are almost like a baby.  Sorry, but we have to stop this discussion here. Get one thing very clear in your mind that I don't love you, and can't kiss you. "  He said and rushed out. I went to my room and cried again.

My parents called to check on me as I was not at the party. But I told them that I had a stomach ache. Dad asked me if he should call one of the doctor uncles or Shruti aunty. But I told them that I had lots of dhokla and other snacks hence having pain. I assured them that I will be fine in some time and will join them. But I didn't, when my dad came to see me again I pretended to be asleep.

********

Ron got very conscious and started avoiding me after that incident.

After the final exams, they all passed out of school and went to college. So I could not see him every day and he avoided coming to our place, which hurt me even more.

Time changed, we grew up, I was in class 12th now and boys in school kept flirting and proposing to me but I never gave them a thought. I was not interested in anyone of them.

Even after about all these years, my feelings for him were still there but I learned my lesson that I should not be vocal about it. As it is, it was not his problem if I loved him. Only my diary knew what I felt for him now. I kept adding a line or two to it.

He made it more than clear to me that he didn't feel the same way but my stubborn heart could never stop loving him. We avoided each other in gatherings, though I could not help stealing glances at him.

Anyway, I didn't want to be embarrassed again though my love for him had not changed and it kept hurting me to see him with other girls in social gatherings.

I was still thinking about him and what happened in my life that changed me and made me hate him when Mom and Dad came back and Mom called me.

Present time.

I came back from the memory lane.  Washing my face with cold water, I went out to meet her.

" Hey, sweetheart, why are your eyes so red? " Mom asked and Dad turned to look at me.

" What happened, Princess?? "  He came to me and asked.

" Nothing, I have a headache. " I lied.

" Oh, my poor baby, have something to eat and go to sleep early. You are working very hard. " Mom said and caressed my face. 

" I had a lot of snacks at Kapoor Mansion, so I am not at all hungry. I will go and sleep. " I said.

" Do you want me to give you milk or juice or anything? " Mom asked but shaking my head I went to my room again.
