Chapter 18
*Aman Pov*
"I don't give a damn about what you say or what you do." Her words ringed in my head continuously when I am driving towards my Company.
"Aman! I know she was harsh but...." Rajeev started saying but he stopped himself.
I gripped the wheel tightly and I am sure my knuckles must have turned white. I gave him a side look and asked "But what?"
"She is right you know. You need to take the responsibility. And I am sure she doesn't mean the words she told you." He replied.
"Ofcourse she means them. She never lies." I said with a blank face.
"Well then we have to make her take the words back." He said shrugging.
"How?" I asked him curiously.
"Jealousy my friend jealousy! It is best enemy of any women and mainly a wife. I have a perfect girl for this." He replied.
"Are you out of your mind? Do you even know what you are saying? I can never cheat on my wife." I said stopping at him and stopped the car taking it sideway.
"Why did you stop the car?" he asked looking at me.
"Get out! Get out of my car and come to office on your own." I replied coldly and unlocked the doors.
"You are so dramatic Aman. I am not saying to cheat and I know that it is very wrong thing to do ok. I have a wife for god sake. I am just saying to act closely to the girl I am saying and you can see emotions for you on Pia's face." He said smiling.
The offer is tempting to see the emotions on her face. But I know it may also make me far away from her if anything goes wrong.
"No! I will not do it and I will not act closely to any girl other than her." I said glaring at him.
"Says the man who was already married once and also had a baby. Shut... I am sorry." He immediately added after saying it.
I didn't say anything. I just looked ahead with a thought that she must be thinking of me the same right.
"Ok fine you need not act like anything just let her do all the work. And trust me it will not be out of line." He said and I nodded slightly making him smile.
I started driving again thinking maybe this is not a correct thing to do. I can't think anymore as we reached the Company.
After the meetings are over Rajeev asked all of us to return to my home and planned something for the evening. I am still having second thoughts about this.
When we reached there, Pia and Nikhila are still working on the designs. They all sat on the couch and I went near them.
"Did you guys atleast had lunch?" I said looking at their work spread over the table.
"Yeah! You guys?" Pia asked looking at me.
I nodded and went inside the kitchen to bring some water to all of us. We all sat in the living room and I looked directly at Pia.
I asked the contractor to put a partition between living room and dining room but he never did. Now looks like it is good that he didn't.
"Uhmm.. Pia! We are decided to go to club today. You guys have to come with us." Rajeev said looking at them.
She glanced at him and said "Sorry! I can't come as I have some other plans but what about Angel. I thought of leaving her at Sush house."
"I already called Mom. She said she will take care of her until we return." Arthi said.
"Ok but I will not come with you guys. We really have other plans." She said looking at us.
"But you need to. We already booked the booth for us and few friends of ours are there who are wishing to meet you." Rajeev said pleading.
Before she could reply Arthi who is watching the television said "Pia! Isn't he Ajay?"
'Ajay'! I remember his name. He is her boyfriend right when I proposed to her. She immediately got up from her chair and walked towards us.
We all turned to see a fashion show in which a guy who seems to be a show stopper as he is walking with designer. There was a close up to his face and he is smiling brightly. I turned back towards Pia to see her frowning at the screen and Nikhila holding her hand.
"Oh my god! Does he know that you got married?" Arthi said looking at Pia.
As if she just came out of her thoughts she shook her head. I gripped the glass in my hands tightly.
"Excuse me I need to make a call." Saying this she left the room.
"Put the glass down." Rajeev whispered from beside me.
I nodded and put it down but the frown didn't disappear from my face. After few minutes she returned with very deep frown of her own.
"So are you coming?" Sushant asked who has been silent all this time looking at me.
"No as I said I can't." She replied with very frustrated voice.
I don't know why but it angered me that she is frustrated because of her boyfriend. I am sure he must not be her Ex as she didn't tell him that she got married. That is not her mistake as everything happened suddenly but I don't know why but it hurt to know that she is not coming with us maybe because of him.
"You have to Pia. You need to meet my friends and that's it." I said looking at her with that 'Ajay's' pic burning in my eyes.
"You can't just order me and I will make my own decisions." She said glaring at me.
"You. Will. Come. With. Us." Saying this I held her hand and started dragging her towards the door ofcourse without hurting her.
She suddenly pinched my hand too hard making me leave her hand and looked at me with very blank expression. I returned the same and she was the one that looked away. I breathed a relief because I was seconds away from doing that.
She again threw a look at me and went inside holding her phone tightly. Nikhila and she whispered between themselves and then Nikhila called someone. She went inside the kitchen and talked while we all just stood there. She returned and nodded at Pia.
"We will just get ready." Saying this she went inside her room along with Nikki.
They both returned wearing little formal but also party wear. Arthi decided to drop Angel at Mom's place along with Sush so they left the house when Pia went inside to get ready.
We all left to go there and left with Nikhila with us. Rajeev got inside Dinesh's car. After few minutes we reached there and Sushant already reached there.
We all went inside and we were about to enter the booth when suddenly someone came and hugged me. I didn't saw her face but the person is a girl that's for sure.
They all took their seats except me and Pia along with this girl. I tapped on her shoulder and said "Excuse me?"
She lifted her head making me glare at Rajeev. I can't believe this!
"Oh Aman! I missed you so much." She said clinging to my arm.
There was some throat clearing so we turned to see Pia stood there with an eyebrow raised. "Who are you?" she asked looking at Pia.
"I am Pia." She replied but didn't said that she is my wife
"His wife!" she added making me want to smile.
"Oh! I am Priya. His close friend." Priya said holding my hand tightly.
"I can see and you were his classmate in U.S right." Pia said with a fake smile. Looks like she remembers what I told her that day.
"We are! I love him so much but alas he married you." Priya said like she just got her heart broken. I so want to roll my eyes at her drama.
Few seconds later Pia gasped in her own dramatic way and said "Oh No! You just missed the chance. You should have visited him few days back and I am sure you could have got chance to marry him."
"Pia!" I shouted at her. Is she the same Pia?
"What? She loves you right? I can't bear the pain of separating two lovers." She said holding her forehead.
"Uhmm.. I am so sorry. I don't love him. I am already married." Priya said leaving my hand as if it just burned her.
"Oh really? And the lucky person must be Rajeev right?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"How do you know?" Rajeev asked surprised.
"I sent her your wedding pictures that day itself." Arthi said laughing.
"Nice prank Rajeev." Sushant said but I didn't miss the glare he sent me.
"Nice prank indeed." Pia said looking at me. I looked away and concentrated on the number of booths in the club.
"Did you message them?" Pia asked someone and I turned to see Nikhila nodding her head.
We all went inside the booth and sat there. After ordering the cokes they all started conversing about something and Pia is just looking at me. Now I concentrated on counting number of little lights in the booth.
"Is it over?" Pia whispered.
"What?" I asked her confused.
"Counting!" she replied folding her hands. I looked at her frowning because how does she know what I am doing.
"You are counting in whispers and I can hear you." She replied my unasked question.
I was about to say something but got cut off when two people approached our booth and one of them said "How are my two favorite ladies doing?"
"As usual dramatic idiot." Pia said rolling her eyes.
"Come! Come and give me your sweet hugs. I missed them." He said opening his arms.
Who is this guy? Did he run away from some mental hospital? Many questions flowed through my mind and in the mean time I didn't saw Nikhila and Pia reaching them.
Nikhila hugged this weird guy and Pia hugged the other but not before slapping this weird guy's shoulder.
"Does Ice queen still have daggers or she changed after getting married?" He asked looking at Pia.
"Why don't you check for yourself? Shall I give you a trailer?" Pia asked raising an eyebrow.
He threw his hands in the air and shook his head. Pia turned towards us and started introducing us.
"He is my husband." She said when it was my turn.
"Oh! You are the Aman dude right?" The weird guys said.
"Kalyan! Don't bother them. Don't mind him! My name is Prakash." The other guys said introducing himself.
"Shall we go Mr.Prakash?" Pia asked and took the big handbag from Nikhila.
"I am tired of telling you to call me just 'Prakash'. Anyway let's go." He replied and they all left.
"Where are you guys going?" I asked them.
"They both are actually our bosses. We need to handover our work to them." Pia replied and they all moved towards the opposite booth.
They started taking out the papers and talked about them. In the middle that Kalyan and Pia kept on their banter and I couldn't help but feel little suffocate by seeing that.
"We planned to make her jealous but look like she didn't even need to plan to do the same with you." Rajeev said looking at them.
"You need not worry about Kalyan." Sushant said looking at me.
"Then should he worry about Prakash?" Dinesh asked.
"He is married!" That's all he replied. Thank god! After few minutes they all returned and sat with us.
"So we just need to go and sign the documents in the 'Cantabil International clothing' right?" Pia asked Prakash.
"There is no need for you to go there. Here sign in these papers." He said taking few papers from his briefcase.
"But we should do it infront of the official right?" She asked confused.
"That's where you need me. I am your boss from tomorrow." Kalyan said grinning.
"What?" Pia asked shocked and looked at Nikhila who is just grinning.
"Well my Fiancée is here so I will obviously be here right. And also they need someone from our company as head so I took the opportunity." Kalyan replied.
"You didn't tell me." Pia mumbled but we all know who she is referring to.
"I thought to surprise you and with all the drama going on. I didn't want to disturb you when you are settling." Nikhila pleaded and Pia just nodded but didn't say anything.
"Atleast teach some manners to him now. I can't bear him anymore." She finally said looking at Kalyan.
"Oh please! Don't talk with your boss like that." He said glaring.
"Working under you is nothing but work in our own company and we are the head. I don't believe you will do any work suddenly now." Pia said rolling her eyes.
They just continued to banter until we decided to leave. I don't know how but somehow we both are the only ones in my car when we are returning.
"Go to your parent's house. We need to pick up Angel." She said looking outside.
Then I remembered what Arthi told me when their meeting was going on so I calmly said "Mom wanted Angel to stay with her for today."
She looked at me surprised but she nodded. We drove silently towards our home.
Entering inside no one talked to each other and walked towards our rooms. Before passing my room I stopped her holding her wrist.
"What?" She asked confused.
"Are they both close to you? I mean like friends." I asked her frowning.
"That's none of your business." She said and tried to release her wrist.
"I think it is. I am your husband." I said pulling her towards me completely and placed my hands on her waist.
Hostage in my hands she sighed and said "Ok. They are my close friends along with the remaining here."
"Then we both are friends right?" I asked still holding her.
"Nope!" she replied and tried to release herself.
I pulled her even closer and breathed on her face. Because of which she stilled in her moments.
Our lips were just inches away and I tried to press them but she stopped me saying "Don't!"
"Why?" I asked her controlling my breaths and she is also doing the same.
"Because... because relations cannot be forgotten easily." She replied.
"What?" I asked her confused.
"Previous relations can never be forgotten easily." She replied repeating her previous answer a little.
I released my arms and she immediately dashed towards her room. When she closed the door I went inside my mine and started thinking about what she said.
Is she talking about that Ajay? Does she love him? Maybe she does the way she acted when she saw him on the Tv and now this little speech.
Should I do something about it? I thought before drifting off into deep sleep.
