Married to Him ✔

Chapter - 2

Song suggestion: Aei dil hai mushkil (Might have heard hundred times till date, but believe me I wrote this chapter while I was listening this and you get the rest)

Arshita

"Thanks Sir! There.. escalator was taking time. "

My ears were straining at her little words. I wanted silence. Complete silence to think of the things. My brains were blocking with stuff I always tried to drain away. But life has to offer you things to jumble up already worst parts.

" No problem. "

His soothing yet confident voice rang in my ears and I wanted to hear him more. His deep and brown eyes watched me back in amusement. They were dancing.

I looked little down to see his lips turned into a side smile. I was being pulled to this man without even knowing him. It was him, Ronit whom I knew and loved but mere touch of this man and that manly voice was pulling me towards him.

Someone hit my arm and then I noticed it was Piya. She was on ease now even when she was standing in front of the Lord of the Empire and here I was freaking from inside.

This man caught me from falling that day and now I was falling over him. But Ronit left me. He ditched me for luxury.

He makes me feel like Ronit did. I see things to join us. But if he is like Ronit, he would break me again.

The thought of it made me shiver and I felt heavy. When Ronit left me, he took part of my broken heart with him and now I wasn't in condition to let myself try to find ways to join the leftovers when this man actually was not him.

I must get away from him and from his influencing presence. I turned away from him.

My mouth went dry and I gulped the last of wetness in my throat.

"Are you okay? "

My eyes shut at the way he asked. I wanted people to concern me and he went on doing things unknowingly to me and the strange part was he was doing nothing. It was me imagining things.

I looked towards his concerned eyes and blurted the instant thought to his mouth, " Not until you go far from me."

His puzzled look made me happy. No matter if he wasn't Ronit, I felt contented. I never said things to him that way even when he was leaving me. And now I was blurting things to my bosses son.

"Sir, she didn't mean that? She meant if you go far she won't be fine. No.. No. She didn't meant this too-"

She stopped and my breathing too stopped when he was standing just before me.

Where is your amusement and care?

"Are you okay? " He said blankly and raised his single black and thick eyebrow. He was intimidating and my heart beat faster as if I ran a marathon.

" Better. "

His face turned into a satisfied side smile and I breathed out as the elevator door opened to give me some air. Air different than this which was consuming my heart. I was suffocating.

He took a step back and went away from me. I wanted to listen to him more, his caring voice when he was going away. I was conflicting.

"What the hell is wrong with you? You were first watching him like.. Like you would eat him or something and then you said that. Are you out of your mind?!"

"I am out of air. " I walked ahead of her, not knowing where to go.

" Where are you going now? This way, Arshita! " She was taking huge irritated breaths and continuously glaring me.

" You know I was fearing him. But see he is gentleman. He offered us his private escalator when he could leisurely use that alone. He is more hotter now. "

He was hotter that he was burning me. How could he influence me this way? Each time I questioned myself, my heart answered that I need someone who would love me, care for me and catch me before I fall.

" Hey beautiful! " I turned to the sake voice who calls me this way each day. Abeer likes me but Piya likes him. And most important I don't like him in a way he want me to like.

" Abeer. "

He gently patted Piya's shoulder as she smiled at him back lovingly. They looked great together when they fought each other childishly. One day he will understand how much important and lucky he is that someone loves him and from that day his only attention will be Piya, not other women on this universe.

"That richie rich is already in there. Let's run! " Abeer said as he caught both of our hands pulling us like in school children walk catching hands.

We entered the conference room and stood at the back waiting for Mr. Randeep Obroi to give his speech.

He was standing beside him in his leisure physique speaking aloud how great he looked in his grey suit and little beard. I tried to hide myself as his eyes grazed to look at everyone and stopped at me.

He was looking amused and gave me slight smile that he gave me in elevator.

I didn't know what to do with my hands so I started to circle my locks in anticipation. His eyes shifted down to my fidgeting hands and I thanked God when he looked away next.

"Good morning everyone! Hope you are so good today as I am very happy that my son will take over this responsibility from my shoulder. As you all are important part of our this big family we need to know each other better. So I introduce you all my Son Arman who is going to sit in this chair. Arman take care of all this and this family of ours. "

Mr. Randeep Obroi looked so happy and proud of his son. His eyes were bright and showered lot of love for him. He patted his back and walked out of the office.

He stepped at the back of chair and resting his arms on it started to scrutinize all of us.

" Morning! We are family. We care for you. You did your work perfectly and you are our gems. "

He kept on saying the usual speech we all listen each time someone of big hand in Oberoi group of companies come to fake congratulate us mostly, in his husky voice.

" You all except to listen this from me but no, I am not saying that because we are all much more than family with lots of responsibility of not only the people we are working with but their family too.

I am not saying you did your work best because your best is yet to come. And you all can never be gems because you carve and shape yourself the way you want. You grow, I grow and so we all grow. Join me in this path?!"

He clapped his hands motioning that he was done with the shortest speech we ever had. He has words and ways with people. I don't know if he was good from heart as each time fail to understand real self of people.

"Last but not least. Why are called here? Yesterday I attended a business meet and I put the question of whom they all thought best to be my PA and its you all I was suggested. I will miss Samaiyra. She was a great at it. I was so confused and so thought of giving her responsibility to someone else and get her here. But I changed my mind recently. Who do you think I chose among you all? "

His amused and sparkling eyes grazed over me and my hands and I thought myself to be the one. He was saying so through his eyes.

I want to be his.. PA.

No, I don't.

My head started to think of points as to why I shouldn't be one when my heart wanted that if he ever want anything it should be me. These are the inner conflicts that make you weak. My loneliness was all because of my own mistakes of being stupid.

Stepping towards me with his hands in pocket he said the name and my heart fell as I felt that he was offending me and very badly.
