CHAPTER 4

613 Words
Pooja was thinking about her life. It was so exhausting. Her to be husband died and then suddenly, his best friend came and proposed her and moreover, she said yes. How could she be so reckless? How could she move on from Subhash so easily? She sighed subconsciously. All this was so tiring... Everyone was busy in wedding preparations. Shiva's buaji (paternal aunt) was coming today to meet her but she was still thinking about Subhash. She really started liking him. But she had to move on because of her stupid decision to nod when she didn't even understand anything that Shiva said. Because of the soft words, she thought that he is consoling her. Her brain automatically told her neck to nod. Now, she felt like she was betraying Subhash. "Pooja, come on. Daamadji ke bua aaye hain,"her mother announced from the living room. (Son-in-law's paternal aunt is here.) "Yes mom, coming," she replied to her mom. She washed her face with cold water to bring some colour to her pale face and went outside. "Wow. Your daughter is really beautiful. I am so lucky to have her as my daughter,"Shiva's aunt cooed at her. Pooja gave her one of her fake smiles and touched her feet. "You have taught her good manners, dear. She will be a great life partner for my boy," she buttered Pooja's mom. "No, nothing like that. We are lucky to have your nephew as her husband." They kept on talking like that and Pooja was feeling restless. Her gut was saying that something wrong was going to happen. She ignored it but when it continued and she realized that she couldn't even hear their conversation because of it, she excused herself and slipped away. On the way, she was not really paying attention to where was going. She suddenly was met with a wall. When she was about to fall, she closed her eyes and braced herself for the fall. Maybe, physical pain will decrease this guilt... But she never fell down. Her waist was held by a pair of strong hands. She opened her eyes and saw the face of her wall to resemble the face of her be husband. They were very close. Pooja was shocked. She just kept looking at him with wide eyes. Shiva came with his bua to surprise his to be wife. He saw Pooja coming towards him but he never stopped her. He was worried, thinking about what she was thinking. Why was she so upset? Was she not happy with this marriage? Well, it didn't matter. He would make her love him. She collided with his chest and was about to fall when he caught her. He was feeling amused after seeing her widened eyes. "You know, I will always catch you when you will fall,"Shiva said huskily to Pooja. Pooja quickly pushed him away and blushed bright red. This situation was very embarrassing for her. She ran away from there. Here, Shiva was standing at the same place, smiling amusingly. She was so beautiful... Her waist felt so tiny in his hand. It was wonderful how she fitted so perfectly in his embrace. He couldn't control himself. He would now even bribe the priest to set the nearest date possible. He couldn't control his desires. He would have her as soon as possible. She would be his, by hook or by crook... He just thought about how unfit Subhash and Pooja looked with each other... After that, he was content with what he did, how he dealt with Subhash. After all, anything that came between him and Pooja had to be destroyed, just like Subhash was destroyed...
