DEVOTED TO HER

8.

MIHIKA

I was sitting in the balcony of his room moonlight was hitting my face, cold breeze was soothing something inside me, having a cup of coffee and my diary in my hand

i felt much better to be honest

*Dear diary *

A lot has happened in these days like A lot!

i opened my phone and the wallpaper made me reminicise about how happy i used to be

it was my and saransh's picture, and it hurt something inside me

when you genuinely give someone all your love and efforts and in return all you get is loneliness and pain it hurts so much

my confidence, my smile,my wholeself feels lost, i feel i lost myself while loving him

i hate him for doing this to me! but i also don't want to hold any memory of him but i couldn't help it

a tear escaped my eye

And about Mr.Malhotra he is a nice person and you know the interesting part in just a few hours he has made me realise that for some people it's worth risking ourselves

he has been so caring since we got married, he respects me much, he literally yelled at dadi for me

if 17 year old mihika would have known that one day she would marry her first crush she would have been squealing with happiness

***

i chuckled at my thoughts but it was true i would have been more than happy if it would happen the way the old mihika thought

i smiled and then quickly removed the wallpaper and replaced it with my and mr.malhotra's picture which krishiv clicked it was candid he was looking at me and i was thinking god knows what

i smiled at the picture

"Mrs.Malhotra" i heard him saying

i turned back and saw him standing behind me

VEDANT

I was wrapping up my work and noticed she was in the balcony for quite sometime now so i decided to check up on her

i saw her smiling and seeing something on her phone i moved ahead and saw she was smiling at our picture which was now her wallpaper

my lips automatically curved up seeing her smile

when i called her she looked at me

"do you need anything" she asked

Yes you !

i shook my head in a no and sat beside her ensuring to not make her uncomfortable

"what are you doing here this late" i asked softly looking at her

"nothing just wanted some peace" she said looking at the stars in the sky

She looked genuinely calmed

"So you like moon gazing" i asked looking at her

"Yes a lot! looks pretty and serene" she said nodding her head still looking at the moon

"beautiful" i said looking at her

she nodded still looking at the night sky

the cool breeze hitting her face and her hairs sticking around her face teasing her and the moonlight on her face made her look effortlessly beautiful

i couldn't help but stare at her

"why are you awake still?" she asked finally looking at me

and my heart skipped a beat with her mere gaze

"Just wanted to finish some work" i said

honestly she wasn't there in the room that's why i was awake and when it took her this long so i came here

she formed a 'O' from her mouth in response

"You aren't sleepy?" i asked

"no i am not yet" she said

and then she yawned just after saying it

i couldn't help but chuckle a little bit

"Now i think you are" i said smiling

"Yes I too think so" she said chuckling a little bit

With that we stood up and went inside the room i took my pillow and quilt and laid down on the couch

My back was hurting though i cried inside closing my eyes

when i felt someone staring at me
she was sitting still on the bed staring right through my soul

Does any ghost possessed her i thought to myself

Oh god please save her and me also! i winced internally

"Mrs.Malhotra" i said in a low tone almost whispering

"Mrs.Malhotra" i said a little louder

"Huh?" she said looking at me being startled

"what happened" i asked in a low tone

i was a little only a little scared actually

"I- No nothing just thinking something" she said as she shook her head

hush! i sighed a little

"Do you want to say something?" i asked looking at her

" i-was-thinking that maybe you could sleep here you might have a back ache" she blurted out

Oh my lord! what i just heard

"Oh no no i am fine here" i said casually

*liar* my inner voice mocked me

" No you can also sleep here i won't be uncomfortable " she said

"Are you sure?" i asked her

i actually asked myself too because if i slept on the same bed as her i might want her in my arms too, it's already hard for me

i am scared i might do something embarassing in sleep

"Yes yes!" she said nodding her head and smiled

i happily got up not showing it though and went on the other side of the bed and laid down

i closed my eyes in relief the feeling on laying on my bed was relieving

"Are you comfortable?" i asked looking at her

"Yes Don't worry now sleep" she said closing her eyes and laying straight as a pillar

what has gotten into this woman? i asked to myself

and then she suddenly turned to the other side and brought her legs a little near her stomach

i chuckled a little internally and oh how much i wanted to hold her in my arms and sleep

i quickly shook away my thoughts and slept while a wide smile spread across my face

Atleast now we are sharing the same bed one thing at a time i thought and drifted off in a deep slumber
