chapter 2

He thought for a second and asked, "it means you will go back to your fiance."

Before she said something, She heard her mobile rang. She looked at screen and looked Sid and put her finger on her lips. He understood and nodded. She sighed and received the call. She heard  her mom angry voice, "Minal, where are you? And what are we hearing from Kunal? You fight with him again. You have misunderstanding and you didn't give him chance to explain. Come back as soon as possible. We need to talk."

She streched her body  lazily and make the sound as she was sleeping. She heard Sid's chukcle but she ignored him and opened her mouth, "Mom, I am in my Pg and sleeping. It's kunal who cheated. There is no misunderstanding which he can explain. And I can't come because I have office tomorrow. I will come next weekend and we will talk about it then."

Mom shouted, "Minal, your dad wants you to come now. And he told us you was with any guy and didn't chance him to explain."

Now, he is blaming everything on her. Great! She got irritated that's why she took a deep breath and calm down herself, "mom, my boss will not give me leave urgently. That's why I can't. I am telling you that I will come next weekend. What's the problem in it? And do you believe on your own daughter or that guy?"

Mom didn't say anything. It means she was thinking, "ok, but call to him and clear misunderstanding. We want your happiness."

She smiled, "thanks mom. I want to hear it. I will call him when I will free. Actually, I am going to taking breakfast now. I am hungry. Bye... Talk to you later."

She hung the phone and Sid shook his head at her and she smiled, "isn't it hard to understand parents?"

He shrugged his shoulders. She asked with raising her eyebrows, "why?  don't you need to give explaination your parents ever?"

He looked at her with sadness and murmured, "I lost my parents many years ago."

She apologized, "I am sorry. I don't know that's why...."

He tried to give her smile, "it's ok. It is many years ago."

She nodded but she was feeling guilty towards him. She can never imagine her life without her parents.

She tried to change subject, " who lives with you in this house? Because I never anyone else except us."

He smiled, "I live alone here. In days, servants take care of the house."

"Your siblings?" She asked with hesitation.

He responded, "I am single child of my parents."

"Oh.."

He looked into her eyes and asked, "what will you do now?"

She didn't know why she was sharing her feelings with him. But she felt comfort when she was telling him what's going on her mind. She was feeling stress free. Payal is her friend and they discussed to each other but she didn't tell her many things which was only in her mind. She was not feeling that she should tell her. But she was not feeling awkward to tell Sid about anything.

She took stress a lot because making her future perfect but now, there is no future. That's why it's time to stress free.

She thought for a second, "I know my parents will force me to marry him because he is my father's friend's son. If our marriage breaks, it will effect on their friendship that's why I need to think a  perfect solution to solve it."

He asked sincerely "do you need me to explain your parents about him?"

She chuckled, "if my parents know about you, they will blame everything on me."

He asked again, "do you want me to warn him to stay away from you?"

She laughed with shaking her head with amusement, " you are kidding right?... There is also no need."

He laughed, "thank God. You laughed at last. You look more beautiful when you laughed."

She blushed and complimented to him, "you don't look bad when you laugh."

He laughed, "I take it as compliment."

"Of course it's compliment." She recalled and tried to be serious, "it's late. I should be leave now."

He looked at her and asked, "why? Do you have any work to do? It's weekend. That's why you will be free today. You can stay here more. I will drop you later."

She looked at him with confusion. He chuckled, "don't worry. I am trying to be friendly. Because I will get bored when you will leave. For kind of information, my long lasted relationship was only for one month. Actually, I have problem. I get bored soon with everyone. That's why I don't want you to avoid me or run away if you will meet me again."

Her mind was analysing every details what he was telling her. It means there is no loss to spend time with him. He is rich, handsome and good sense of humour. Any girl will be happy with him that's why he can pick any girl who he wants. There is no chance he will create any problem to her or stalk her. She nodded and asked, "fine... Then what should we do now?"  She looked at the mobile screen. It was 12 am.

He looked at her with dark eyes that's why she tried to him understand what she meant, "I mean should we watch movie?" She was not confident about round two with him. Last night was amazing for her but she didn't know about his opinion.

He smirked and nodded. They played a movie on the TV and the movie started. They sat on the couch but she cared about distance between them.

Soon Sid pulled her towards him and she didn't do any objection. She was enjoying movie in his arms. But when it was kissing scene in the movie. She felt Sid tensed body. Before she could react, she felt Sid was top on her. She willingly accepted him and didn't want to stop herself or him.

They were making out on couch.  she heard her mobile rang. But Sid was busy to kissing her. She slowly called out his name, "Sid."

He only gave her response, "hmmm" but his concentration was on kissing her face softly. He was pecking every part of her neck skin carefully.

She said, "I think my mobile is ringing." Sid again gave response, "hmmm" but when he realised what she was saying. He looked into her eyes then pecked on her lips and sat on the couch straight. He focused on the tv screen. She got up slowly and took her mobile. It was Payal. She received the call, "hello."

She heard Payal's concerned voice, "Minal, where are you? Do you know how much I am worried for you? You left with that man and you didn't return till now? Are you alright?"

Minal responded, "I am fine. I will tell you in detail when I will come."

Payal asked suddenly, "when will you come? And where are you? Why is there a lot of sound?"

She looked at Sid and he immediately paused the movie, "I am coming soon."

She said, "come fast. Your mom called me and asked about you that you are in pg or not. That's why I lied to her that you are with me in pg.  Ramesh and I rushed here but you are not here that's why I got worried and called you. Are you really fine?"

"Yeah. I am coming." Minal told her and hung on the call.

Sid was looking her that's why she told him, "I have to go. Mom called to Payal."

He nodded and said, "I will drop you."

She wanted to refuse but he rushed and took the keys and said, "let's go."

That's why she followed him. They came out from his house. He locked his house and told her to wait on the main gate. She nodded. It was three storey building. She was wondering why he lives alone in that huge house but it was not her business that's why she shrugged her shoulders. She heard the cars horn voice. She looked at the sound. There was Sid who was waiting for her into car. She rushed to car and she noticed the gate closed automatically.

Last night, she remembered that he came with her by bike. But now, car it's impressive. It was sports car. It means he is most rich who was beyond her limit. She knows her limit very well. And she knew it was her first and last time with him. But she was not disappointed. She was relieved.

She told him her pg address. He stopped the car infront of the pg gate. She turned towards him and said, "good bye."

Sid asked, "give me your mobile." She looked at him with confusion but looked his serious expression that's why she unlocked her mobile and put on his palm. He puched something on it and returned to her, "I saved my number."

She nodded and took her mobile. It's impolite to not give him her number that's why she searched his number into her dialer list and dial.

When his mobile rang, she looked at him with smile, "it's my number. Bye..." And before getting his response, she got out from car and rushed into her Pg.

He smiled to her reaction and shook his head at her.

He turned back his car. It's not first time to see her like it for him. He saw her many times into pub with her friends. He was impressed with her cheerful nature. He wanted to talk her but when he noticed that she is not interested in any guy except one. He didn't take any action towards her.

But last night, when he entered, she was shouting on that guy. He was happy from his heart because he is always jealous with that guy. He always wondered why does that guy deserve her? That's why he was enjoying the scene in front of him.

But she went on dj and started the dance. He never looked her like it. He was worried for her. That's why he approached her because he didn't want any other guy took that opportunity.

He knew she was drank that's why he knew his limit. But when she was starting to enjoy dance with him. He could not resist himself. He wanted to give her happiness so she forget that guy totally.

He took her into his house, his bed. But he noticed that she was virgin. He looked at her and asked, "Is she fine with it?"

When she nodded, he accepted her with open arms. He wanted to make her first time memorial.

Next day, when she got up, he knew she was confused that's why he left her alone to think. He waited her at dinning table to come and eat with him. He didn't know he would get that chance with her again or not. That's why he didn't want her to leave soon. He didn't know why he was doing it. But he was comfortable with her that's important for him.

After his parents died, he never felt comfortable with anyone else except Minal.

He wanted to impress her as she would stay with him. When he gave her his number, he hoped that she would contact him. But when she gave him her number, he was glad. May be, they would spend time together soon.

Minal came into her room where Payal was waiting for her. As she looked Minal, Payal rushed her and looked her from head to toe. She was looking fine but her eyes stopped on her neck where was red spot. She knew Minal from last four years. They were colleagues, roommate that's why they knew each other very well. There is nothing hidden about each other life. She knew Minal has cheerful, pleasent personality but with some values. She never crossed her limit for anyone even for her fiance. But today, she was looking her new side. She was not criticizing her but she was confused that why Minal do it. And last night, with whom she was.

Minal noticed Payal was glaring on her neck that's why she immediately went towards mirror and looked at her neck. When she looked herself to mirror in morning, there was no spot. It seemed it happened on couch. She hid it from her hand and asked, "Payal, what did mom say to you?"

Payal controlled herself and said, "I told you she was asking you. It seemed Kunal told her that you left with a guy."

She sighed and sat on the bed and told her everything. What happened with Sid and what she talked to her mom.

Payal was understandable girl. She looked at Minal and asked, "he blamed everything on you. What will you do now?"

She put her hands behind the bed and said, "I don't know."

Payal nodded but didn't say anything. They were busy in their thinking. Then Payal asked, "Minal, don't you think that Sid create the problem to you? He is stranger and we don't know about him anything. Because every action has its reaction."

Minal shrugged her shoulders, "I don't think so."

Payal was confused, "I have doubts that's why be careful to him."

Minal nodded but her mind was thinking how to agree her parents to break the marriage. She has one week. May be, she has enough time.

She is the manager of HR department that's why she was always busy in the office hours. It's the rare when she  got time for proper lunch. Now, she had to think the solution of her problems. She was tired mentally and physically in that week. It was really tough week for her.

She didn't want to go her home and face Kunal but she knew there is no use to run from her problems. She had to face it one day that's why not now. She didn't think anything till now.

It's the Saturday and she reached her home at evening. She missed her home very much. She grew up here and every happy and sad memories were into her mind. She didn't expect that her parents didn't say anything. She thought when she entered into her home, her parents were ready to ask the questions to her. But they didn't say anything. And she was surprised. She knew something was going on her parents' mind but she didn't create any problem for herself that's why she was quiet.

The following day, kunal came with his parents. His parents were angry. They were thinking it's her fault. She betrayed their son but they didn't know she was victim.

Kunal looked at Minal and said, "I am sorry for what happened. She is my colleagues only. It's not my fault that she likes me. She was sad that's why I was trying to comfort her. I didn't know her intention was not right. I love you ever. I can't afford to lose you."

She never knew Kunal was perfect lair. She was happy that she saw his real face before marriage. Minal smirked, "Really, it's her fault that you told her that I am ugly and mentally unstable. Your parents are forcing you to marry me while you love her."

Kunal protested himself, "I never said it. She was telling a lie. I don't know why she told you that."

She asked, "then why were you standing silently? Why didn't say it in front of her? Why didn't you give you explaination? Do you think I am stupid? I trusted you kunal. You broke my trust. Even, anyone would say me he saw you with another girl. I didn't trust him but I trust you blindly. I saw you from my eyes. I saw you eating that girl face. You are really shameless kunal. How dare you come here and telling a lie."

Kunal looked awkwardly our parents. They were looking them with shocked. She knew she never said eating the face part in front of their parents. But she was angry from his lie.

He looked at her angry and shouted, "I didn't give you explaination because you were busy with that guy. Tell me why did you leave with him? Did you sleep with him, Minal?"

She smirked, "now, I got it. Why are you here with your parents? You think that you could blame on me what happened there. Ok, if you want to hear it. Then listen carefully, yeah, I slept with him. Now you hear it. Or I need to say it louder. And I am freeing you from this burden. Because your parents are forcing me on you. I am breaking that damn engagement. Take your ring and get out from here. I don't want to see your ugly face."

Her Mom shouted on her , "Minal,that's enough. We are here to solve your problem. You are saying nonsense."

She took out the ring from her finger and put it on his palm. She told her parents, "I don't want to get married with him."

Kunal got pale. He took her hands into his hands, "Minal, I need to talk you in alone. Please give me one chance."

My dad took a deep breath, "I think it's better if you solve your problems yourself. What do you say Rajneesh?"

Rajneesh Uncle said, "yeah, Minal you are like our daughter. We never thought you our daughter in law. I think you should listen to him atleast once."

She sighed, "it's ok."

Kunal and Minal went into seperate room to talk.

Minal was angry that's why kunal said, "I am really sorry, Minal. I really love you. I don't care if you slept with him or not. Because I love you. I will take care of you ever. Please don't break the engagement."

Minal asked, "why? I saw you with her. How can I believe that you don't do it again? And from when are you with her? Are you planning to marry me while dating her? Do you think that I will marry you and wait for you every night while you will be with another girl? I can't do it, Kunal. I am really sorry."

Kunal said, "I did mistake. I accept it. You also slept with him. I am ready to forget it. Please you also forget it."

She looked at him, "I am sorry I can't forget."

Kunal lost his temper, "why? I told you I have my need. You was not ready to fulfill it. Then what do you think? You think I should wait for you. Wait a minute..... You made us fool that you slept with him as I felt guilty. How can you sleep with him when you want your first night after marriage?"

She glared at him, "if you want to think about it. Think that way. I don't care about you anymore. Now get lost from here."

Kunal glared at her but didn't say anything and left with his parents. His parents were disappointment but they can't do anything.

Her parents glared at her. And mom was angry on her, "Minal, you told me that you didn't sleep with him. Then why did you say it in front of them?"

She asked with irritation, "mom, does it matter now?"

Her mom scolded her, "Yeah, it matters. Are you out of your mind? He is boy that's why everything is fine for him but you should think about your reputation. We understand that you don't want to marry him but who will marry you after knowing it."

She went into room without saying any word. She heard her mom shouted behind her but she didn't care now.
