Atif's POV

Mithul called while I was at work and I kept ignoring his calls.

Let him do whatever he wants. He is probably calling to complain about his wife anyways.

Dad told me that I would have to attend a business party by one of his friends and I had to take Shyama with me.

I just texted her to be ready.

The day went by and I went home. Like I told her, she was already ready and I quickly went to change.

I came back and we left

I came back and we left.

The venue was really nice. We met up with dad who introduced us to his friend.

I got busy in conversation while Shyama went to go and sit somewhere. Some of my co-workers started to show up so I kind of forgot that she was here. Mostly because I didn't care.

"Hey, by the way I saw you walk in with his HOT girl. I'm going to and ask her for a dance. Don't mind," one of my co-workers said and left before I could stop him.

I watched him walk to her and she was just on her phone. Clearly bored!

He probably asked him because she showed him her hand with her ring.

At least she knows to act like husband and wife in public.

But he didn't leave. I noticed dad's attention on them two as well.

Ha! He lost his job for sure!

Before dad looked at me, I left from there.

Shyama's POV

This guy wasn't leaving me alone and I didn't see Atif anywhere. Thankfully, his dad came to my rescue.

"And by the way, you are fired for how your behavior," he said.

That made him leave.

"Where's Atif?" He asked and I told him I didn't know.

"Okay. You go home and I'm going to find him," he said.

I nodded and went home. I took his car and he said him and Atif would come home in Atif's car.

I got home and switched into my something else. Rohan was supposed to come but he couldn't make it today.

Both guys came home an hour later. I pretended to be sleeping.

Atif woke me up.

"Hhmmm?" I asked pretending to wake up.

"What time is your friend coming?" He asked.

"He's not coming tonight," I said.

"K," he said and went to sleep on the sofa.

"Atif, come and sleep on the bed," I said.

"It's okay. You got it for 2 weeks," he said.

"Shut up and come here. I never said that you weren't allowed on the bed. I just said that I wasn't going to get the sofa," I said.

"K," he said bringing his blanket.

He went on his phone while I had my eyes closed.

"Shyama," he said.

"Hhmmm," I said.

"Why are you doing this?" He asked.

I turned to face him.

"Doing what?" I asked.

"Caring," he said. "You know that I don't want you to be my wife."

"I know that you don't want me to be your wife, but that doesn't mean that I don't want to treat you like my husband," I said.

"But I don't even like you," he said.

"I know," I said.

I didn't want to have this conversation anymore.

"Let's just go to sleep," I said and closed my eyes.

One day he will like me and hopefully someday love me.
