Love By Chance

Chapter 32: || The Next Morning ||

The rays of the early sun, woke him up. He sat up tiredly in bed and stretched himself. Once again he found himself thinking about her. "Not Again!" he muttered annoyed.

"Its high time.! " he thought, "Kab tak aise chalegaa..!"

Speaking to himself-"This isn't right! This shouldn't be! Aur kal jo hua who nahi hona chaiye thaa...she wasn't herself, but I was right."

Rubbing his eyes he sat up thinking. Of course she wouldn't remember last night. He replayed the scene of last night when he was observing her while dancing with Mallika. Sure that guy had something to do with Anika's last night condition. "Damn..!" he cursed under his breath as realisation dawned him remembering her behavior in her room. He was thankful that nothing happened to her last night.

And yet again he found himself thinking about their close memories, their almost kiss that night at Udaipur and now what happened last night. He was crazily attracted to her when she was around. Her mere presence was enough to make his moves desirously dangerous. The situation had started getting out of hand. He felt that his attraction wasn't right. Here, this lady had saved his life, been a support when he most needed, had given him this new life, had given him her friendship trusting him. And here he was crazily attracted to her. He couldn't let this happen. He decided that he would mend his ways, that could only be done if he stayed away from her. But he wondered why it was only her who affected him in this way...Mallika never had, Tia never had! Then Why her!

His mind chided him, he was thinking too much, it was probably because he was here living with her, always with her, the attraction was probably a result of that. "Fine!" he said to his fighting thoughts. "I will stay away it's the best way out!"

He quickly got ready for the day. As he was setting his hair looking into the mirror, his phone rang. He looked at his ringing phone thoughtfully and picked it up. "Okay". Ending the call, his eyes showed determination as he glanced at his reflection in the mirror.

As he walked out typing away on his phone he almost banged into the careless Anika.

Shivaay-"For once tum dehke nahi chal sakti kya..!"

Anika-"Please shubh subh shuru mat ho jaaiye pehle hi mera sir phata jaa raha hai.." she said her eyes half closed her palm pressing her forehead. He looked at her with concern. He dragged her and made her sit on the dining table and quickly brought medicines from hi room. Gave her the tablet for headace.

Shivaay sat on the opposite chair.

Anika looked at him, their was awkward silence.

Shivaay to himself-"Yeh mujhe aise kyun dehk rahi hai kahin kal raat isse yaad toh nahi?"

Anika-"Ye mujhe aap aise kyun dehk rahe hai...ek toh mujhe kal kay hua yaad nahi...Mujhe lagta hai aapka asar mujh par ho gaya!"

Shivaay confused-"What!"

Anika-"Aapke dimaag ki bimaari mujhe bhi ho gay...mujhe kal raat yaad hi nahi hai."

Shivaay-"O waise...wait...meri bimaari...Anika tum paagal ho ...I think ab dheere dheere tumhe ehssas hoga!" mocking her.
