"You don't trust me?" Amar sighed as he heard the accusation in her tone.

"It's not about trust. I just don't want you to get too much excited and let the cat out of the bag" Amar said

"You think I'm stupid?"

"Ofcourse no. You are simply twisting my words" Amar said in disbelief

"Amar Vedant. You think you have grown big enough to lecture your own mother?" Suha Vedant asked keeping her hands on her hips.

Amar groaned.

"Mom. Listen to me. I know you. And you know yourself better. Right? The boys are over protective where Mirrie is concerned. And she is not yet ready to tell her brothers about us. And I don't want them to know from anyone else other than me or Mirrie" Amar said

"Someone else? I'm someone else for you now? Dhruv? Did you hear this? Beta paraya dhan hogaya" Suha said clutching her heart dramatically earning an eye roll from her husband.

"Fine mom! I thought you really loved me. If you want to see me get killed by the twins, then by all means talk as you wish in front of them. Anyway, as you keep reminding me every now and then, you carried me for nine months and gave birth to me. So obviously you get decide when I die" Amar decided to answer his mother in her own language

Suha gasped listening to her son.

"What non sense? When did I say that? You are my darling baby. How can you even think that I would let any harm come to you? If the twins so much as touch a hair on you, I will show them who Suha Vedant is" Suha said, going all momma bear on him.

"As long as mine and Mirrie's relationship stays a secret, I'm safe Mom" Amar said.

"Ofcourse. They will never know from me." Suha vowed.

"Are we the only sane people in this house, dad?" Astha whispered her father, seeing that her brother has inherited certain crazy antics of their mother.

"Your brother is smart. He knows how to handle your mother" Dhruv said, impressed by his son.

Amar excused himself and climbed the stairs to his bedroom.

He took his phone and dialed Kushi's number.

***

She was sitting and talking to Zian

"Zi, Zada is calling you" She looked up and saw Zahir glaring at them

Zian simply nodded and hurried away from them.

"Is he really your brother. How sweet he is. And you?? Bad boy" kushi said rolling her eyes.

"I am your boyfriend" she heard him say

"Correction. You were. But we had a breakup, because i don't like you" Kushi said.

"I also don't like you, you always fight with me for no reason, but I am a man of words" she heard him say and scoffed

"Man? You are a boy" Kushi said rolling her eyes.

"I am a year elder to you" Zahir said

"Whatever" Kushi rolled her eyes.

"So, I am a man of my words and you are my girlfriend" he said.

Kushi simply raised her eyebrows at him.

"Now I am going to claim you as mine" he said

Before she could think of anything else he placed his lips on hers.

Kushi woke up startled as she heard her phone ringing.

"What the hell. Uhh. Why do I get this dreams often. Why the hell can't I just erase it from my memory" Kushi groaned sitting up in her bed.

After reaching the apartment, she had lied down for a nap.

And the bloody kiss dream appeared again out of blue again.

Why the hell did she have to mention it in front of the bad boy, today.

And that smug look on his face, when he asked her if she still cherished those memories.

"Cherish, my foot" Kushi gumbled to herself.

It's a bloody nightmare.

Her phone rang again, catching her attention. She saw it was an unknown number.

Could it be him?? She thought and her heart rate picked up it's pace.

What if it is him?

Kushi shook her head to dispel those thoughts.

Why the hell would he call her anyway.

"Yes?" She answered the call

"Kushi? Right?" She heard a male voice and tried to figure out who it is.

It's not the badboy, she acknowledged.

"Yes. Who is this?"

"This is Amar. Amar Vedant" she heard him

"Ah. Amar. Where did you get my number?" She asked

"Uh. Zada gave me your number"

"Ah! Zada"

"My mom has invited some of my friends for dinner tonight. I called to invite you and Vansh for the dinner" Amar said

Kushi leaned back against the headboard of the bed.

"Really? You don't know me. We met only once or twice. Why would you invite me for dinner at your home?" Kushi asked

"Uh. You guys are new here. I thought I would help you feel welcome" Amar said and Kushi laughed at his pathetic excuse

"Nice try Vedant." Kushi said

"Listen. I'm just trying to be a good friend. I got to know Vansh in the last few days. So I thought I would invite you guys for dinner too" Amar said

"I know about you and Zada" Kushi said

"What?? How?? Who??"

"You must know that Neha wouldn't be able to keep a secret to save her life. I still haven't figured out how she hasn't spilled the beans in front of the boys. My only inference is that you are damn lucky" Kushi said

"God" Amar groaned

"Now that we have got it out of the way, why don't you tell me the real reason" Kushi asked

"Okay. You are smarter than I thought" Amar said

"Tell me something new" Kushi said in attitude

"You know what? You are a perfect match for Zahir" Amar said with a laugh.

"Like hell"

"Hey. I meant as enemies. Nothing else" Amar teased

"Are you going to tell me what you want from me. Or should I just hang up and leave you to your fate?" Kushi snapped

"Okay cool down angry bird. I need your help"

"Go on"

"As you already know, Zahir is very sharp. If I so much as breath in Mirrie's direction.."

"Wait a second. Who the hell is Mirrie. I thought we were talking about Zada. Damn it. Are you some kind of playboy to get the names too confused" Kushi asked furiously

"Hold your horses. I call Zada as Mirrie. Now can we move on"

"Yeah yeah. Go on."

"As I said, if I so much as look at her, he will come at me with a barrel of questions. I just need you to distract him if things get heated" Amar said

"You owe me one Vedant. I will definitely collect it when I need it"

"You have my word"

A/n
