Avni Khanna

I feel like I have committed a crime. The way he is staring at me. Gosh someone save me.

I waved my hand at him, "Hey! Neil." I shutters as he is showering the wrath of his cold eyes, "You here? All of sudden!" Neil raises his right brow asking me 'Seriously!'

'Gosh! Neil, stop doing that. You're scaring me.'

From the corner of my eyes; I can see Sia's drained out face. The girl who was just a minute ago said Neil is my crush is getting intimidated by him. I want to laugh at her facade face.

I clear my throat, "Amm-- Sia." I call her name but she didn't answered because she is in her own bubble.

I shaked her arm a little to wake her from her Dreamworld, "Yes, yes!" She furiously blinks her eyes.

"This is my husband- Neil Khanna and Neil this my childhood friend- Sia Roy. The one I told you about years ago."

"Ohh! Hello, sir." Sia shutters making me slack-jawed.

'Sir?'

'Didn't she declared him as her new crush just a minute ago!'

Sia usher her right palm forward for the hand shake and to my very surprise, Neil reciprocate her greet.

"Neil." He gives her a quick nod and his expression were somewhat changes to softer tone.

I pinched my arm only to yelp in response. Both fix their gaze at me, "Avni, you okay? What happened?" Sia asks in perplexity.

"Ahh! No no. I am perfectly fine."

I still can't believe my eyes. He actually shaked hand with her. The man who usually never acknowledges any human's presence. I am about to faint, I guess.

I waited for some seconds but nothing happened.

'Why am I not fainting?'

"Hope you don't mind, Sia but I am taking my wife." Neil asks in his deep voice making my eyes widen.

'Did he really just talked with her?'

'That too himself?'

"Sure. Why would I mind?" Sia smiled at him and met my eyes, "Enjoy!" With that she left my cabin.

I am still standing like I saw a lion eating veggies. Like in seriously! He really asked her if he could take me or not. As in literal, wow! Is this my real husband?

I can feel his intense gaze on me. I saunters to him and he is standing like he is ready to eat his prey. As in me. His wife.

I place my palm over his forehead to check if he had fever or not, "Your body temperature is normal then what happened?" I mutter lowly.

"You happened." He mutters gruffly. The way his demeanor darkened after departure of Sia is mind-boggling.

I tilt my head in perplexity, "What do you mean?"

He actually takes in a deep breath to calm himself before discarding his suit jacket and covering my upper with it. Aah! This feels nice because I was feeling cold. I forget to bring my shawl. 

He didn't answered me, instead of that he grabbed my palm and literally dragged me to the car. That made me agonize about the problem. Infact, his behavior infuriated me. I kept mum in the hospital because I don't want people to witness our fight.

"I will drive." He announces as we stand before his black Range Rover. A bodyguard passes him the key.

Then Neil opens the passenger door, "Sit." He ordered me making me raise my brow in protest.
