Redeeming Love by Shikha Mishra (e book reader android txt) 📖

Disha's POV

“Hey." Some one calls me and instantly I get a deja vu. Turning around I see Rohan running in my director.

“Now is it going to be your everyday thing,or what?" I ask him when he stops beside.

“Which thing?" He ask. We start walking. Some students glancing at us and then whispering something to their friends.

“The thing of you calling me from behind." I point towards a chair to sit. We both sit on it as there is still some time before the lecture starts.

“Maybe." he replies.

“Say what do you want to say to me." I say to him. Because him been so silent can only mean that he is thinking of something and other than yesterday's incident there is nothing to think.

“That man from yesterday......" Here comes “wasn't that man your ex husband?" I nod my head. “He is quite possessive of you, am I right?"

“Yes he is. Why do you say so?"

“Didn't you notice?" I give him confused eyes. What did I not notice.

“My clueless girlfriend...." he throws his hand around my shoulders and like yesterday I don't feel that much uncomfortable. Today it's bearable. “your ex husband was totally trying to show me that he is more important than your current one day boyfriend."

“How so?" I ask really confused. I very intelligently remove his hands from around me.

“Oh! My good you really were engrossed in his wound that you didn't noticed. Now I regret been getting ready to be your boyfriend......" he bends down on his knees infront of me and takes my both hand in his covering it with his massive palms. “But I do like you. You are beautiful, straight forward, confident and many more that I have came to know about you in only few days. So as we have decided we will be in relationship but I want you to promise something."

Didn't he just said that he regrets accepting my proposal.

“What is it?" I ask wanting to know it.

“I want you to pay attention only to me even if he is beside you. I want you to spend your time with me. In those times I want you to only think about me but if you get thoughts about your ex husband then I want you to tell me about it truthfully. Will you promise?"

Listening to his demand I get aware about something and that something is that I am pulling him in my troubles. Didn't I avoided proposing this same proposal to rishabh as he may end up getting hurt if I don't have some feelings for him at the end of this proposal. What if same thing happens to Rohan. Today he likes me but he may start loving me at the end of our contract. And what if after the end of our contract I may not have feelings for him. Yes I should end this. From the start only I proposed this proposal to him thinking he wouldn't fall for me and I also would come to know if I really have gotten over vihaan as I say to everyone.

“You know what we should end this." Saying this I remove my hand from his. And at the same time bell rings. I dart away from the bench and make way to the class.

This was wrong. I did a mistake.

Suddenly I get stopped as someone's hands circles my wrist. My eyes widens and heart starts thudding in anticipation. I turn my head back in a lightning speed and instantly a wave of relief washes through me seeing Rohan.

“Rohan, what are you doing? Leave my hand we will be late for our class." I say and twist my hand to get his hold off of my hand.

“Are you serious? You are unbelievable. You can't just say that it's ended without giving me an explanation." he replies.

With all my might I jerk his hand away and say “I know that what I did is very cruel of me and for that you can hate me all your life. And I am sorry. I should have thought it out before acting on it." With that I turn and make my way to the class in long strides.

Whoever has said that ‘whatever happens is for our own good' is really true. He was really getting close to me and I was also becoming comfortable around in only few days. And I am sure he would have become important to me in the early future. And that I don't want. This thing will keep him away.

As I get out of the building to go to next building for my next lecture which is business economics I get pulled to a corner. Again my heart starts beating. I open my mouth to curse and give a mouth full to him.

“Why are........" But stop as I see Rohan.

Why am I thinking of him today so much?

“Stop pulling me in the corner Rohan. If you want to talk to me, then ask rather than pulling me out of nowhere."

“Sorry. But you know few students always has eyes on you and I don't want to create a picture for them." I nod my head in understanding.

“So now that if you have me here already which I say was very respectfully. Now talk." I say sarcastically. He just gives me those boyish smile which I get to see rarely.

“Why do you want to end this relationship? Obviously you were the one who proposed so I couldn't quite understand you ending it."

“I did a mistake which now I am mending." I reply while keeping my eyes on his. But his eyes is like they are watching my very soul. Like they are reading me, understanding my thoughts without me talking it out.

“Don't lie Disha. I know all of it why you are doing it."

“Why?" I ask challenging him. No one has ever caught on my lies not even bhai in these three years. And vihaan is a different thing as he always strives to utter the things which I also don't think is true.

“That I am not going to tell you as sometimes when people face the truth which their mind also doesn't wants to agree comes fourth can hurt badly. Let's just say that the reason which you are giving me is just a 3/4 of the whole truth. Now take back your words....." he takes me by surprise by flicking my noes “and let's continue our relationship. Besides it's only for one month. After this month even if one of us doesn't grows any feelings we will stop this, isn't this a win win thingy. Just take this step. Don't be afraid you will never hurt me...." my eyes widens at that. “neither will I. So shall we......" he offer his hand “girlfriend."
