Love Together

Chapter 25 (posting again)

Reposting it because I've received numerous emails stating that Chapter 25 isn't opening.

Author's POV

Aayansh, who, after arriving at the party, sat alone at the drink counter, drinking in frustration, when a girl approached him.

The girl came up to him and said, "Hi."

Aayansh, who was ignoring her, was solely focused on the recent argument with Radhi.

He was furious because every time he thought of having a romantic conversation with Radhi, she always reminded him of their impending marriage.

Aayansh ordered a drink from the waiter, despite showing no interest in the girl.

Yet, the girl was so persistent that she stayed there, attempting to strike up a conversation from time to time.

Aayansh, consumed in his thoughts, continued to drink without acknowledging her efforts.

Meanwhile, he noticed Radhi, who had just entered the party.

Although inwardly delighted to see her, Aayansh pretended to be angry and turned his face away.

Waiting for almost five minutes, Aayansh thought, "She can't be that far. How can she take so long?"

Curiously, he looked in the direction where he had seen Radhi, but she was nowhere to be found.

Aayansh scanned the room, looking for Radhi, and spotted her chatting with a guy at the end of the drinking corner.

Seeing her with someone else, Aayansh thought, "I thought she would regret leaving in anger, but maybe not."

Turning his head in frustration, he noticed the girl sitting beside him and got an idea.

He greeted the girl sitting beside him with a "hi."

As if waiting for his "hi," the girl immediately responded and began introducing herself.

Minutes passed with small talk between them.

Aayansh, glancing at Radhi from time to time, hoped she would do something, but she remained passive.

Aayansh thought to himself, "Looks like time is not on my side with this plan."

He forced a laugh at the girl's unnecessary jokes.

As Aayansh looked at Radhi again, he saw her engrossed in her phone, thinking, "Seems like there's no point."

Suddenly, the girl grabbed his hand and asked, "Are you somewhere else in your mind?"

Aayansh felt uncomfortable with the sudden hand gesture and quickly pulled his hand away, about to say something, when he noticed Radhi approaching them.

"Finally, you're here to rescue me from this chatterbox," Aayansh thought to himself as he focused on Radhi.

Radhi, seething with silent anger as she watched the girl flirt with Aayansh, struggled to contain her fury. Yet, when she saw the girl take Aayansh's hand, she couldn't bear it anymore. Rising from her seat, she marched towards Aayansh with determination in her eyes.

With a mix of determination and love, Radhi approaches them.Aayansh, on the verge of standing, pauses as Radhi promptly settles herself onto his lap, gently and begins kissing him passionately.

Aayansh, initially surprised by Radhi's sudden kiss, soon melted into the embrace, feeling the depth of her passion.

As they kissed, Radhi's hand slid beneath Aayansh's shirt, while Aayansh held her waist firmly.
