Chapter 19

Siya's pov :

                  It's my turn to give them both weird looks. I went near the bed and found Arjun shocked and giving terrified looks to my dad. I decided to intrupt them once my dad tried to kiss Arjun!

   Nooooooooo....!

        "Appa.... Arjun.... What are you both doing? daddy leave him.. " I tried pulling Arjun and came in between them.

          "Siya... Your dad is misbehaving with me! " told Arjun.

         "Shut up Arjun! Are you nuts. " I scolded while struggling between them while my dad trying to push me.

            "Anu...baby... Anu don't go... Come back to me. " my dad started blabbering in an unstable voice.

                Anu is the name of my deceased mother! What happen to you daddy? I looked at the table near my bed and found an alcohol bottle. My dear dad is drunk, I am gonna kill him tomorrow.

                "Anu come here, give me a hug! " he started to close the distance with Arjun.

   "Siya... Do something! " yelled Arjun.

              "What is this appa? Stop! He is not momma. " I tried to console him. And in which angle this handsome hunk look like my beautiful mother to my dad.

          "Move away chittu, she is my Anu, please leave your mom and dad alone." he told and started pulling Arjun's shirt. I was still in between them trying to bring them apart.

              "Your dad is so desperate Siya! " told Arjun and I glared at him. No one have any bloody rights to talk about my dad not even Arjun.

              "Stop glaring at me and do something if not your dad will rape me today. " he told me alarmed.

              "I told you to Shut up Arjun! " I yelled at him and in a second all three of us fell on my bed.

                My dad is trying to hug Arjun and Arjun is trying to hide behind me, these both men were crushing me.

God I can't breath!

                   Arjun is strong enough to fight for himself and for others. But psychologically any man will run if another man try to kiss him. Arjun would have never expected this from my dad even in his wildest nightmare.

              I am the first girl in the world to fall in this situation.... Appa this is so embarrassing you are trying to kiss your soon to be son in law, come back to your senses.

            I held my dad tightly and yelled " Arjun... Go run out.... Go!"

             "Who is Arjun? Chittu, she is your mom. " told my dad.

Aarrrggggg.......Iraiva!

           "I told you to get out Arjun." I yelled again.

           "How can I leave you alone Siya." Asked Arjun.

         "Idiot! He's my dad and he's not gonna hurt me, if you didn't go out now I will leave you here and lock you both inside. I am sure you know the consequences. " I told Arjun trying to control my drunken dad. Arjun gave me a frightened expression probably imagining the scenario and ran out at an instant.

               Sweat beads formed on my forehead and I am really exhausted. My dad started to scream my mom's name and after minutes he drifted off to sleep.

What the hell just happened?

           Ramakrishna you have to explain me this act of yours tomorrow and about Alcohol.... I am not going leave you easily for consuming that damn thing.

    I covered him with quilt and closed my room door. I saw Arjun sitting on the staircase and I sat beside him.

             He was staring at the wall and suddenly bursted out laughing making me fall for him once again. Arjun smiles rarely, today his laughter resonated in my eardrums was like a beautiful music to me.

          I kept staring at him forgetting the world and a silly smile played on my lips.

         "Siya.... Siya.... Hahah... Your dad is ultimate... God... Hahah... He wanted to kiss me...hahah... " told him while laughing which knocked back my senses.

           "Excuse me Mr. Arjun. That wasn't intentional. Actually my dad was drunk and I didn't know in which way this big hunk looked like my cute beautiful mother. " I told to defend my dad which is indeed the truth.

             "Whatever...but this is the first time I saw a father in law trying to kiss his soon to be Son in law.... Hahahah.... This is hilarious. I came into your room and saw you wrapped yourself in the blanked I came near you then suddenly I was pulled to the bed...... Hahahha.... Actually I was happy about my wife's boldness, But to my utter surprise it was your dad who tried to molast me... I was struggling when you came inside the room and the rest is history..  Hahah..." I became silent when he explained me.

              My cries blocked my throat thinking about my dad. He miss my mom a lot. He loves her a lot. It's not written in my fate to look my parents together, to visualize their love. But I can blindly say my dad is the best husband who loves only his wife even after 24 years.

                I have never seen him eying other women in a bad way. My dad is a gem. I was pulled to a hard chest and caged between a pair of protective arms.

       "Siya, are you OK? " asked Arjun that's when I realized I was crying. My hand went around his torso and my grip tightened.

             "Hey, I am sorry I didn't intentionally made fun of your dad. Please don't cry dear." He carassed my hair.

        "I am guilty Arjun... I feel really guilty. He spent all his life alone just for me. I was born in this world killing my mother making my dad alone for his life. I shouldn't have born. I am the reason for his condition today." I started crying my heart out.

             "Stop talking rubbish Siya. It's not your fault. If something is meant to happen it will happen. We don't have any power to change it. Don't cry baby. " after crying a lot my inner turmoil subsided and the fight I had with this man came running back to my mind.

             I abruptly pushed him and asked folding my hands " So why did you come here? "

              " I think even you consumed a little Alcohol! OK tell me why shouldn't I come? " he asked me back.

          "What's the need for you to visit me in this hour that too climbing the wall? " he just sighed and I know he is getting irritated.

      "Why aren't you picking my calls? " he asked me looking straight into my eyes.

       "Why were you calling me? " I asked averting my gaze.

       " Because I wanted to talk to you damn it. " now he is super angry and I am very scared of his this face.

          "I don't think you have anything to talk to a heartless girl like me! " I told him and claimed down the stairs.

          I was pulled back and pinned near the kitchen wall.

        "Don't you dare leave when I am talking to you. Don't make me loose my sainity Siya. " told Arjun seriously.

       I am scared like hell, this man never controls his anger and he become an aggressive alien in his temper. I hate me for the tears dripping down my cheeks.

     
         His eyes softened and I hope he realized what he was doing?

   "Siyaaaaa! " he sang my name.

                 I pushed him and went out to the porch. I sat there looking at the moon. He sat beside me and took my hands in his but I didn't turn to him.

         "You look beautiful in moonlight! " he commented while I gave a cold look to him and averted my gaze towards the beautiful moon.

                "What can I do? I cannot tolerate him cursing you Siya! I was shocked too. Do you have any idea about what you have done?  You kept a daughter away from her dad. I was furious when he accused and I can't digest someone else scolding you. So I took the initiative before he could utter anymore words about you. " he told looking worried.

       "Oh.., so he told you and you believed him. How could you Arjun?  There is nothing wrong in believing your friend but it's not that you can loose your trust on me. " I am furious now.

       " Si-" he started but I intrupted him saying " Let me complete."

        "Do you know how much pain I was going through after that incident? It wasn't I... It was Sanjana who kept Kavya away from her dad. I promised Sanjana about not revealing her secret to anyone. It's Sanjana's place to tell kavya about Surya not mine. I know nothing about them... Why are they apart? Why are they fighting?... Nothing....! What if she has got some compulsion or specific reason behind doing it? I cannot betray her. She trusted me with her daughter and I never break anyone's trust!

                      I was planning to talk to Sanjana akka about the incident and Surya, but I didn't find time I was busy and many things happened in these few days including my dad's health condition. I am a human, I can't handle everything in one go. I needed time and I still need time." I completed and came back into the house.

        He tried to talk with me but I stopped him " Don't... Just Don't... You know why Surya accused me because he don't want to put his wife down in front of anyone not even in front of you. So he accused me to balance his frustration I am not blaming him because I know he is hurt.

                    You should have spoke to him about me not being that kind. You should have asked me before jumping into conclusions. Surya took Sanjan's side but you dropped me down in front of a third person. " I told him and went to the fridge to fetch some cold water to calm me down. He followed me like a lost puppy.

   He touched my shoulder and I jerked it away " You know what you know nothing apart from getting angry with me. Accept it!" I felt relaxed after blasting him.

                    He should know I am not a puppet and Mr. Hunk completely loses his mind and pludge his brain when he becomes angry.

He is feeling bad for his misstep!

           I heard his stomach growling and I felt disheartened, he skips his meal whenever he becomes angry. The fact is he skips food very often! Hope the point conveyed.

       "When did you last ate? " he didn't answer " I asked you something Arjun."

            "I had my lunch! " told him. Great now it's 2:00 AM in the morning.

         God! there is nothing in the house what will I give him. I took bread and toasted it, I made some scrambled egg. I could find his gaze on me all the while. I put the plate on the dining table and looked at him.

     " I am not hungry! " told him blankly.

  " See this is the problem, I told you many times don't skip meals but you'll never listen to me. You know I made this for you with limited stuff in a short notice but you'll never attempt to try this even though you starve. Things aren't working between us Arjun!" He took the plate and started having food.

             I found him smiling, " Siya this is the first time someone cooking for me not as a job but because didn't wanted me to starve. Things are definitely working between us. I know I mess up things but trust me I have never been into any sort of relationship in my life. I was all alone Siya. Me and my loneliness.... It's just.... " he struggled for words and I can understand him no words required, his eyes speaks volumes.

           I sat on his lap and kept my head on his chest. "Finish it and speak, it will get cold whereas I can listen to you whole life. " he was shocked. I know I am being bold these days but getting close to him feels right and also I feel utterly comfortable.

He is my Handsome Hunk!

        He finished his food and tried to talk but I silenced him with my finger " I can understand Arjun... You need time.... Take it but please don't mistrust me. I can't bare that. Arjun I know we should accept each other with our flaws but this anger of yours is no good for our life. Anger can ruin many beautiful things Arjun. You are not just my friend so that I can advice you and take aback. You know what you are to me and that's why I want you to change certain things... For you, for me for us." I tried to explain him.

             "Anger is Arjun's birth right Siya... I don't have control over that. " he told with a bitter smile.

       "Anger is the twin of Mr. Khaleja, not my Arjun. You are not the one you potray yourself. Fine then, give me one day.... Your one whole day, promise me you'll not get angry in that one day.... Throw the billionaire in you and come with me. That will be the best day of your life then decide yourself, Whether you love being Khaleja or my Arjun? I will respect your decision I'll not ask you to change after that. " I was looking at him for an answer.

                  He stood up and went inside the room I was staying and laid on my bed.

          "Oh... Hello what are you doing? " I asked him.

            "My whole life is yours Siya, if you specially wanted a day... I am all yours for tomorrow. It's already 4:00 AM I don't wanna go back home and drive all the way back here again I need sleep. " he told closing his eyes.

          "But where will I sleep? " I asked but Mr. Hunk dozed off already.

    Idiot!

I took my pillow and settled in the nearby couch. I will make you sleep in couch for a week after marriage Mr.Khaleja ... Mark my words! I slept on him at times but really I don't want to share a bed with him before marriage.

Tomorrow is gonna be memorable!
