My Short Stories

Chapter 23

A Grand Apology

I fucked up. I messed up badly. And I know I don't deserve her after this but I love her. I love her like I have never loved anyone . She is my everything and I can't lose her over this. I haven't even confessed yet.

*Waiting expectantly*

Yes, yes here's what happened...

Flashback

I needed a fake girlfriend because my mother kept pushing me for marriage. I have no intention of getting married now. I thought if I will have a girlfriend she will stop.

So I asked my assistant. She agreed as she was in dire need of money. We have been fake dating for two months now and I kind of have developed feelings for her.

We have to go to a gala tonight. She was looking beautiful. At the gala, I went to talk to some people. When I returned some guy was talking to her and she was giggling. It made me angry. So I snapped.

I went to her and said, "What are you doing? Do you not care about my reputation at all? Why are you flirting with him?"

She looked at me hurt. Then I realised what I had said. She started crying. "How can you say that?" She said and left.

I ran after her but she got in a taxi. I've been trying to call her since last night but she is not accepting my calls. I know that she must be at her bestfriend's house.

End of flashback

So here I am now. Thinking of how I should apologise. I know I messed up. But I was angry. I was jealous. I regretted it just as I said it. Then I got an idea.

Five hours later

I am waiting for her. I called her best friend and told her to bring her here. When she comes, there is road of rose petals which will bring her here. Then there are her favourite chocolates on the table there. Finally she will come to me. And I will apologize and confess to her.

One hour later

What? Why are you still here?

*Looks at him pointedly*

Right, you want to know what happened. Everything went great except that I forgot my speech which I had prepared for three hours when I saw her. But I said what I felt. And she finally forgave me. She is coming back with me to home. Also we are dating for real now.
