"No.." Siddharth replied curtly.

"..and who are you to give answer on behalf of her?" He asked to Siddharth.

"Her husband. She is my wife." Siddharth said curtly while looking at him.

I chocked and spit my mouth full water on a man who is asking me for a dance. I started choking and look at Siddharth with shocking eyes but he standing there like he said nothing unusual.

"Are you alright.?" He asked me while Patting my back and handed me tissue. I nodded my head and wipe my mouth with tissue.

"I'm sorry.. I ruined your coat." I apologized to the man.

"No, it's not your fault. I should have known that you are already taken." He said while wiping his coat with tissue.

"By the way I'm Harsh.. from Arora groups." He said while extending his hand towards Siddharth for handshake. But Siddharth look at him like he will kill him just by his stare and I think Harsh understand this because next moment he leave from there.

"Let's go from here. I feel suffocated." He said walking us towards the exit gate by putting his hand on my waist.

"What was that?" I asked looking at him.

"Truth.." he said while pull me closer to him by my waist.

"But.."..

"I know, but one day you are." He cut me off and said while looking at me.

......................................................................

The word he said before keep ringing in my mind and I don't know what to do about it. At one part of me wanted to stop him but other part wanted to be with him forever but its not easy for both of us to forget everything and move on but how could i forget what keerti told me on phone misunderstand me with Siddharth.

What happened to him that he suffered so much, why he lied to me about the another girl. But in whole of this i could tell in whole two years he never stopped loving me, i can tell looking into his eyes. The way he looking at me with longing. Everything is mess, i don't know what should i do. Should i tell him that i also love him insanely and can't live without him. I know one day i will forgive him. May be my heart is already forgive him.

I turn my head from window to him. He is driving but his mind is somewhere. His shoulders are tense and his grip on steering wheel is tight that his knuckles are started turning white. He didn't say anything after we left the party. A frown is settled on his eyebrows which shows that He is in some deep thought. I wanted to hold his hand and tell him that i am with him no matter what.

"I am leaving for New york. I have a flight at 2.00 A.m" he said looking at me.

I looked at him with shock. How could he give up on me this soon. I looked at him with hurt. Soon i covered myself from the shock and hurt and cover it with a blank expression. But my mind is stuck on a thing which he just said.

Can't he just wait little more. May be I will forgive him.

After 15 minutes he stopped the car in front of my apartment building. He step out from the car and opened the door of my side for me.

I started walking towards the building without saying anything. Many things are running into my head. I turned my head and looked at him. He was standing leaning to his car while folding his both hands on his chest.
His eyes said so many things to me, like he wanted to stop me and want me to his side and hold his hand. He still looked handsome in white shirt with loose black tie and rolled up sleeves up to his elbow. He removed his coat jacket before.

I turned my head back and started walking again. My whole mind is filled with him as i blankly climbing on the stairs. I felt so heaviness in my heart like he try to tell me something. I don't know why my heart kept telling me that he needs me. I should forget everything for a moment and should be with him.

I am getting restless as i climbed each stair. I just wanted to see him once more. Yes this is what I wanted right now.

I hold my skirt in my both hands and started climbing down the stairs fastly. I hope he didn't leave yet. My vision getting blurred and tears are falling from my eyes. I tremble on stair but i balanced myself.

After climbed down from the stairs i run fastly towards his car while holding my long skirt in my both hands. Tears are continuously falling from my eyes. It felt like i can't able to see him again and it break my heart more. I sigh in relief when i saw he was still standing on his place leaning to his car. He stood straight looking at me running to him.

I run fastly towards him and hugged him tightly by his neck. He stumbled on his feet due to a sudden hug that his back touched to the car window but he balanced himself.

After few minutes i felt his hand encircled on my waist and he hugged me back tightly. He hid his face in a crook of my neck. I was standing on my toes so that i can reach on his face. I kissed his side forehead and let more tears came out from my eyes.

I broke the hug and kissed his forehead, his both eyes and then both cheeks. I wanted to tell him that i am with him by my kisses.

"Please don't leave me." I whisper in my shaky while touching our foreheads. My eyes is closed because now i am not able to look into his eyes.

"I have to.." he whispered while closing his eyes. Our foreheads are still touched.

"Please..please...please..last time you went and took two years to come back." i said while cupping his face with my palm.

"Something important came up which i can't ignore but i promise i will come back and will not take a long to come back like last time." He said while cupping my face.

"Please trust me this last time. I promise I will not disappoint you." He said while caressing my cheeks and kissed on my right cheek.
