"Yes." I said shamefully.

"Did you tell me even once about it?"

"No." I admitted.

"Did you let me believe that you actually like me?" He interrogated.

"I never thought..."

"Yes or no." He interrupted.

"Yes." Technically yes. Though I never confessed my love but there were many instances where anyone would think that I like him. In my defence, all was unintentional. And maybe it was because I did actually like him.

"Did you marry him in just a couple of months after our breakup?" He asked me.

"Yes." I admitted shamefully.

"What does that prove Mrs. Sameera Ahuja?" He asked finally.

"Ayan, I was..."

"Stop calling me that!" He shouted and punched the wall again before going back to take his seat. Tears flew down my eyes.

I didn't expect him to call out my mistakes like this. I know I made these mistakes and I am guilty about them.

"Ayan...I mean Aayansh..."

"Just leave. I don't want to talk right now." He said.

"But I want to." I said between my tears. "I will talk and you will have to listen." I said confidently.

"I was immature and stupid. And I did things which I am not proud of. Well, you can see the consequences of my decisions. But...but trust me I didn't cheat. I know I was still in love with Nikhil when I proposed you that day. Infact, it wasn't love. It was obsession. Ever since I was like thirteen I have been crazy over Nikhil. You remember the day you found me crying while I was drunk? I was crying because I realised my feelings weren't reciprocated. I saw him with someone and I felt rejected. But then... Then you came."

I took a pause and then continued.

"You took care of me. I still remember the next day I wasn't thinking about Nikhil but about the kiss we shared. And at that moment I realised that maybe I should get over my obsession. And, so I proposed you. Trust me I was serious about making things work. Making our relationship work. I really was serious about our relationship. I really liked you. Infact, I started falling for you. Fuck, I even had a bike ride with you after years." I said remembering the faint memory.

I looked at him. There was no reaction from his side. He was stoic. But I know he is listening intently. So, I continued.

"I wanted to tell you the truth. I wanted to confess so many things to you that day. But before I could all this happened. That day, when Nikhil kissed me I told him about you. I told him that I like you. But you got to know about it and I couldn't explain anything. I wanted to apologise but I couldn't."

I continued and apologized, "I am really sorry Ayan for everything. But trust me I didn't cheat on you. Everything that happened, everything that I told you was true with all my heart. I don't want you to make the same mistake as my father. The longer you will keep hating me the more regret you are going to feel."

I said everything that was in my heart and then looked at him. He still has no expression on his face. I just want to read his face. Want to know what is going on in his mind but I know he is not going to let me know what is going on in his mind if he doesn't want me to. So, I didn't ask. Instead I said, "Thank you for your time. Don't worry now I won't be wasting your time anymore." I said and left his office.

I am so Desperate for him to accept my apology but I know that is not going to happen. So, I am not going to waste anymore of my time on this.

This shouldn't affect me and I am not going to let it affect me. With that thought I returned home.

I got a call from Nikhil again that night. He is disturbing me a lot since the past few days so I decided to receive his call this time.

"When will you stop calling me?" I asked him irritably.

"Please, Sam I want to talk to you once."

"But, I don't!" I told him.

"Please Sameera. Just once. I just want to talk to you and explain myself. We haven't talked peacefully ever since that day even for once." He requested.

I remembered the conversation I had with Ayan just a couple of hours ago and I accused him of not giving me a chance to explain myself. So, I decided to not be that person and so I said to him, "Okay. Speak."

"Not on phone. Can we meet? Please."

"Fine! When and where?" I asked him.

"You can come just right now! I will send you the address of the hotel I am staying in." He said.

I agreed and he instantly sent me the address of the hotel he asked me to come. I went to the room he was staying in the hotel.

I wish I didn't.
