Chapter 21
*Yash Pov*
"Everything is fine, Revu. All the arrangements are made and you need not worry about anything." I assured her looking at the way she is frowning.
"I know your Uncle and you managed everything." She mumbled and just stared at the stairs.
"Then?" I asked her frowning.
"Do you know anything about the procedure to way a saree is worn?" she suddenly asked and coughed hiding my shock.
"No!" I replied, shaking my head and her face fell more.
"How will she manage?" she mumbled fidgeting with her hands.
I understood what is making her restless and opened my mouth to assure her regarding Nev's achievement in learning, but my mouth just stayed like that when I glanced at the stairs.
"She is looking beautiful." Revu's voice broke my thoughts and I nodded closing my mouth.
"She is!" I mumbled and felt a little difficult to even breathe looking at her.
"She managed it completely. I got scared a little when she was given such task and..." she stopped in the middle realizing I am there.
"It is ok, Revu. I know what Mom did is wrong. I don't know what happened to her and how will she understand." I said shaking my head.
"Don't let her know that you are not happy with her. She will not be able to bear." She said staring at me.
"Like how you are not being able to bear with Nev's indifference?" I asked and she gave a sad smile.
"She has every right to do that. I was never there for her and I made sure she went even more far with my stupidity. But I want you to promise me something." She said turning towards me with a serious expression.
"What is it?" I asked her frowning.
"Take care of her and never give her a chance to hurt both of you. She doesn't have the patience just like I never had." She replied and I frowned at her.
"You have too much patience." I pointed out.
"Yeah! But I didn't before and made so many mistakes." She mumbled and we heard a throat clearing.
We turned back to see Uncle is standing behind us just staring at her. I looked back at Nev to see her smiling at me, but it slipped looking at Revu.
"Grandy!" she suddenly shouted, looking at the door and we turned to see Revu's Mom and Dad walking inside.
"Grandy?" I heard so many voices along with mine and stared how Nev hugged her tightly.
"How am I looking?" Nev asked, twirling around her.
"After function come to my house otherwise you may have bad eye." Grandmom said smiling at her.
"Again spitting?" Nev asked in an excited voice and heard a grunt from her Granddad.
"He is just jealous that you love me too much." Nev said, waving him off and I coughed before turning towards Revu to see her tears rolling down but smiling too.
"The prayer is going to start." We heard Mom's voice and everyone started walking towards her while I walked near to Nev.
"I am such an amazing teacher. You need to thank me." I mumbled placing my hand on her waist and pulled her to me.
"I already did yesterday, right." She mumbled back in a teasing voice.
"You are looking amazing." I said, pressing a kiss to her forehead.
"You are also." She said, grinning and repeated the action making me laugh.
"I am not getting a word. Do you understand everything?" she suddenly whispered after some time just staring at the prayer.
"Just a little." I replied, to which she grinned before leaning her head on my shoulder.
"I love you too." I mumbled when she continued to stare at me and smiled hearing my words before we both stared at the prayer.
*Neville Pov*
"Make sure this place is clean." She just ordered and walked away while I glared at her back.
"What are you doing?" I heard Yash voice which made sure I come out of my thoughts.
"I am thinking how to clean this place." I replied, to which he laughed and started dragging me away.
"Hey! I am wearing something in which I can't run." I said trying to stop him.
"Ok! I will slow down, but we are going out." He said, slowing down a little.
"What about the work?" I asked him frowning.
"She will just shout and that's all." He replied, grinning making me laugh.
"Ok! I will go and change." I said, taking my hand away from him and started climbing the stairs carefully.
"No need to change, Nev." He said following me.
"When I know I can't handle something, then I shouldn't do it, right." I said shaking my head and reached my room.
"Ok! Hurry then." He said with impatience in his voice.
"Why don't you help me?" I asked, turning around holding another set of clothes to change.
"Why not?" he mumbled back, grinning and locked the door before reaching near to me where I am chuckling at his reaction.
"See? How late, we are." He said again, shaking his head.
"I am not the one who made sure we are late." I said, hugging him and closed my eyes enjoying the ride.
"Even that is your mistake." He mumbled and I shook my head.
"Get down." He said, stopping the bike and I looked up to see we are near a café but not at the parking area.
"Why did you stop here?" I asked, to which he didn't reply, but just stared at the gate and then got down.
"Let's go inside." He said, turning towards me and helped me to get down from the bike.
"What just happened?" I asked, frowning, but he just shrugged and we both walked inside the café holding our hands.
I stopped abruptly when I glanced at the person sitting near a table before glaring at him while he is already smiling at the person.
"Hi! How are you Neville?" Kiran asked, smiling at me and I just sat down with a blank face after which she laughed awkwardly and settled down along with Yash.
"Was everything fine?" she asked, glancing at Yash and he nodded like they share some secret.
"What is it?" I asked him to which he passed the menu.
"Order something." He replied and I know I can't create any scene here so I dropped it.
"So, Yash told me that you are fighting for his family acceptance. That is really great, Nev." Kiran said, smiling at me.
"Did he now? And it's Neville." I said, staring at her.
"Sorry! It's just he always calls you like that while talking about you that I got used to it." She replied smiling genuinely making me prick at my consciousness.
"She just likes a very few people to call her like that and that's all." Yash said, assuring her and I just threw my consciousness out of this café the next minute.
"I will just be back." Yash said, getting up when he got a call after a few minutes and I sighed in relief.
I can't bear their such close behavior again without saying a word when it feels so difficult to not say what I am feeling.
They are just talking and joking and always trying to bring me into the conversation, but I tried to stay away as much as I can.
"Look, I need to tell you something." She suddenly whispered and I sat with alert vibrating from my each moment.
"You should be careful with his mother. She called me the next day after we met and tried to make sure I do not let go of this proposal saying some stupid things. She didn't call me again when I told her I will not though. But still be careful." She added with genuine concern and I know what she is showing is true.
However, I don't feel good with their closeness no matter how much trust I have. Now, do I have to be close to her just because she is a good person and is close to him?
No! I am feeling uncomfortable or even a stronger thing than that and I can't push it down until it goes away on its own.
"Tell him I am going to his house." I said, getting up making her frown.
"Why? If you want me to leave, then I will leave." She said getting up herself.
"That is your wish, but I am going." I said, walking away not giving any ear to her shouts and just left.
"Where were you? Didn't I ask you to do something?" Aunt shouted the moment I walked inside the house.
"I have returned now, right? And stop shouting of you want any usage to enter this house for the prayer you all held." I said with a blank tone before drowning in the work and she too kept quiet.
I ignored Yash during the dinner like I was from the time he entered the house with a glare. I felt more than tired and walked towards my room after finishing the remaining work.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, looking at him sitting on the bed and closed the door.
"I should be the one who has to ask the question." He replied and I sighed walking near to the cupboard.
"This is my room itself if you are going to ask that question." I said and started changing my clothes ignoring his presence.
"You know what I want to know, Nev. Why did you leave?" he asked, pulling me towards him making me stand before him.
"I was not feeling good." I replied, to which he glared.
"Tell me the real reason." He asked again.
"I was not feeling good to be in her presence. I thought we will be spending time with each other, but not with third party." I replied to which he sighed.
"She was going to leave after ten minutes and then we would have stayed for sometime before going to a movie and then to a restaurant." He explained making me stare at him.
"Oh!" I mumbled with shock written on my face, for which he chuckled before making me sit on his lap.
"I just don't like you to meet her. Why don't you stop?" I asked, placing my head on his shoulder and he held me to him.
"Just a few more days and that's all. She became a good friend, Nev. She admires you. Do you know that?" he asked, pressing a kiss on my forehead.
"So? I have to like her for that? I don't care even if she thinks me as a goddess, but still my feeling will get impact on my feeling itself." I replied and he sighed nodding.
"By the way I think you are a goddess." He whispered, making me chuckle letting go of the wrong mood and snuggled more into his hold.
"I love you too." He mumbled and I smiled closing my eyes.
