Her pov
I am shocked at his choice of words and that's what made me agree on to this. It may seem seconds but it was an eternity for me after which his behaviour and choice of words changed for me.
(Flashback)
Author's pov
Two children-a girl and a boy-sat in a dimly lit room within the grand Rajput mansion. Their faces bore the weight of their enmity. Despite their families' close ties, the young adversaries remained resolute in their mutual enmity.
Yes they were divya and Reyansh it was another of their parents and families meet ups.
The room itself seemed to echo their discord. Heavy curtains hung from tall windows, casting elongated shadows across the polished marble floor.
The girl shifted uncomfortably and tried to get up from the chair on which she was sitting. But Her frock, betrayed her as it got stuck on the wooden armrest. And She stumbled forward, her fall abruptly was halted by a nearby side table. The impact sent a crystal vase right on the floor and with a loud Noise its shattered to pieces.
The little divya got scared of the consequences that now she would face and the reyansh which was till now brooding in silence gave out some expressions atleast. Expression of annoyance over the mess she had created.
Divya carefully managed on her own and took some steps back to avoid being injured from the glass pieces that were scattered across the floor, she thought what will she do now. She would get a lecture for her carelessness from her bui who has recently visited for sure as this was her room.
(Namrata jha is divya's bua its a new entry in the story)
Abruptly an idea came to her mind and she went to reyansh who was observing her since she fell. She went and asked
"Please tell my bua that mistakenly you broke it, she would not say even a word to you but if she gets to know its my fault than i am gone for sure, please, please, please help me" she pleaded.
"That's your problem, i am not gonna get into all this, figure it out on your own."
"Please if you do so none of us would get scolded"
"Ahh! You're too much chaotic, i like peace don't drag me into your problems, solve them on your own"
"Why are you so rude?"
"I am not rude i just don't like chaotic people like you who have so much problems always following them"
Divya didn't force him more and accepted that now she would have to face the consequences and click! The door opened and namrata opened the door. She had a plate full of apple slices in her hand that she probably brought for the kids.
Seeing her favourite vase on the floor her eyes widened.
"Who did this?" She asked fuming in anger.
Divya lowered her eyes and that was enough for her to figure out who's fault was this.
"Divyaa do you even have a little idea about how expensive that was" she yelled on her.
And downstairs all other family members were talking with each other not having a single idea about what Little revolution was going on upstairs.
(Flashback ends)
In this way only a lot times reyansh proved how much he hated problematic people and divya too as she was one of them.
Because of which divya used the same technique before so that he rejects her on his own without any effort, but to her shock he didn't and his words touched her heart.
She agreed in a short time because she knew if reyansh accepted her with the problems she had than there is really.. really something going on.
Today, within the quiet chambers of her heart, a delicate bloom of joy unfurled its petals. It danced, elusively and tenderly, like the first rays of dawn brushing against dew-kissed leaves. A symphony of emotions, too intricate for mere words to describe.
All this was growing within divya as their relationship was starting to begin.
His pov
Does she call this as a kiss, she left the place without even completing the whole thing. It was just a mere touch but because of it,..... a sea of unruly emotions and sensations flooded inside me. But she shouldn't have left just after that...she'll have to pay for leaving me like that.
I don't know how i fell for her slowly slowly but just her existence was enough i guess. Now i feel like i don't want to live the life without her, leave the thought of living i don't even want to think about it. I had no reason to like her but still i couldn't stop myself from doing that. That's fate i guess.
I came out of the room to find her but it was like she disappeared into thin air. I was walking along the corridors of the palace when..... abruptly i bumped into vidhi on a turning.
"A bhaiyaaa dekh ke chala karo yaarr" she rubbbed her forehead. (Translation: ahh brother please see here and there while walking)
"Tune Teri bhabhi ko dekha hai?" I asked her without wasting a second.
"Ha w...." She halted mid sentence and ....and... started to smirk at me. Have she gone mad?
I raised my brows and shook my head at her smirking face.
"Apna gal toh dho lete sharam karo" she said mocking me. (Translation: atleast you should have cleaned your cheek have some shame).
Ahh the mark skipped my mind but wait what if it even skipped my mind.
"Mein kyu sharam karu shadi shuda hu mai.... sharm toh tujhe ani chahiye choti hai tu aur apne bhai ko esa bol rahi hai" (translation: why should i be ashamed i am married......on the contrary you should be ashamed, you are the younger one and you are speaking to your brother like that).
She just showed her tongue to him and said "bhabhi mummy ke sath hall me hai mehmaan aye hai"
(Translation: sister in law is with mom in the hall, some guests have come).
After saying this she left from there and went to her room.
I then went to the hall and found out that mom's friend and daughter had come here. Mom and divya were sitting on a couch and mom's friend and her daughter were sitting on the other one which was adjacent to them.
On seeing me mom called "come here reyansh say hello".
"Pranam hukum sa" aunty and the girl greeted.
I have met them mannier times before too and i like mom's friend but her daughter.......she's chipku. (Translation: sticky).
"Pranam" i greeted back. And the girl's eyes were glued to me like feviquik. I rolled my eyes internally but unaware of all this mom and her friend were continuously gossiping, i turned my face to look at divya hoping that she would also look at me but her eyes were busy staring at a single particular place, i followed her sight just to meet with the girl's face again. What was her name....... yeah....riya.
I remained stoic not giving out a single expression on my face lets see what this tigress does 😏.
I took small steps and went to sit beside riya, she started to give me special attention but i was not even a bit intrested, from the corner of my eye i was just observing divya's each and every action. I pretended to talk to divya .
Out of nowhere she kept her hand on my hand which was lying on my thigh and i wanted to jerk her off the very second...., but...i didn't.
Divya shouldn't have ran like that i wanted to kiss her but...... But no worries.
I always have the calibre to build my own ways to complete my work rani sa, don't worry. I internally smirked at the idea.
Mom said something to her and she got up to go somewhere.
"Why did you got married without even informing anyone, that's so unfair" riya said which caught my attention.
I wanted to say bitch do your own business but i controlled myself and said "well only family members were present rest all were unaware"
"So you're saying that we're not family" she gasped as if i fired a bullet.
Yess we're not, not even in dreams.
"That's not what i wanted to say" i said but before she could speak a shriek left her mouth.
"Ahhhhh!!"
I could literally hear her bone crack
She held her right foot and started to squeeze her ankle tightly.
Everybody's attention went to her and they gathered around her, i stood up stood in a corner, it was.....vidhi who dropped the paper weight on her feet.
"Sorry wohh papa ne mangwaya tha unka paper weight idhar hall ne chut gaya tha me bas leke hi ja rhi thi.....i am so sorry riya, laga toh nhi" she used her sweet nature as a weapon, smart gurll huhh. (Translation: sorry actually papa wanted this paper weight he forgot it in the hall and i was just carrying it and mistakenly......i am so sorry riya, hope you didn't get hurt).
As they were all asking her divya too came there with a maid beside her that was holding a tray full of tea cups.
She came and joined mom, vidhi and suman aunty (mom's friend). The pain was too much so for sure it was a fracture so they decided to take her to teh hospital.
"I'll to come with you suman" she said and then turned to divya "you and vidhu stay in the palace only and please look after dinner as Damini is not at home too, just tell the maids and they will make it " divya assured her and after that they left.
Vidhi left for her room as soon as they left. I was still standing and divya crossed me without even sparing a glance to go to the kitchen, "rani sa" i called her and she halted. She turned back and waited for me to say something.
With three long strides i closed the distance between us, held her hand and pulled her inside the kitchen.
Author's pov
"Ohh there's nothing on the stove?" Reyansh asked.
Divya just shook her head in response.
"How? Because i can smell something burning "
"Yeah, I can toi smell something burning, perhaps it's your sensibility igniting, completely futile. Judging on the basis of your like of company" she said and he smirked to it.
"Jealous much?" He said and divya shook her head in annoyance and started to leave.
