HER DESTINED GROOM : Replaced Groom

First Hug

 He replied “ And that’s the reason I have hugged you this way I wont see and you can be comfortable too.”

Ishani wraps her hands around him (hugging him back) and she started speaking “ why I am the problem? Why am I consider a curs…?” But she couldn’t extend her words more because of crying.  

Aadvik said“ Shsss!!!” While patting her head slowly and gently he said “ You are not a problem. You could never be.People project their insecurities on others. Its nothing on you, it's on them who speaks!”

Ishani stayed like that for five minutes and then slowly she felt better and warmth in his hug.

Ishani said “ leave your hands and look up in the sky’’ Aadvik asked in confusion “ Why?” She replied in cute annoyance “ Do what I told you!”

He left her and looked upwards. She immediately turned around and wiped her tears with the back of her hands. She said “ I am done.” 

Aadvik asked, “ Shall we sit inside ?” Ishani didn’t turn around yet but just nodded.

Aadvik opens the door for her. Ishani sits inside the car and aadvik did something unexpected when he went inside   and made her wear the seatbelt.

 Aadvik’s focus was on the seatbelt while Ishani’s eyes widened in the closeness of her face and she could feel her heart beating so much faster than ever this time.

Aadvik who wasn’t yet looking at her asked “ Are you feeling better now?”

When she doesn't reply, aadvik turns his face towards her, which makes their lips very close. She clenched her saree in nervousness and even stopped breathing.

He came out and thought “ Why is she not replying?”

Aadvik went towards his seat and then again asked her after seating inside “ Are you feeling better than before?”

Ishani didn’t make eye contact with him in nervousness. She looked outside the window and replied “ Yes much better !”

Aadvik started driving. Ishani after five minutes said while looking down “ I want to thank you for being with me. It really means a lot to me. I have never got any care or support emotionally. So thank you for today.You were the first and I will never forget the way you have comforted me!”

Aadvik replied “ It's great for me to hear that you felt good. But since you really want to thank me then I have a condition for you.”

Ishani immediately looked at him. He said smiling “ I just want you to be comfortable with me. You don’t even look at me while talking.Why do you get so nervous?”

Ishani replied “ Aaa that! I can't help it. As with boys I am not very comfortable. I am programmed this way only.”

Aadvik asked “ How is it? I thought you were in a good relationship with your boyfriend!” Ishani looked at him . He said “ Sorry if mentioning this has made you uncomfortable.”

She replied” I have never been close with Joshik either. Even though we were in a relationship and about to get married, I was never in an intimate relationship. I was just not comfortable with him at that moment.”

He asked “ I thought because I saw that dress in your luggage so..”

Ishani asked “ Which dress?? “ She added” Wait, don't tell me! Ok thats the reason when i had told you to bring me a rubber for my hair and after that my clothes were  placed differently “

Aadvik replied immediately” I don't mean to but it has fallen down by itself.”

Ishani replied “ It's my best friend-Tanvi she brought it secretly for me. I didn't even know about that. “.
