Rakshit's POV:

Out of the population of 7.8 B people who has to be my boss's best friend?

Oh I know I know!

The one with whom I have cut throat love.

I would have accepted anyone here, a cockroach, a killer, even my dad's murderer, but this person can't be tolerated at any cost.

What if I give you 7Billion?

No!

Your favorite picnic spot?

No!

A pool of skittles?

Never!

Drishti??

Hey donkey, why are you quiet?

Because I am not interested in your topic. You are well aware that had always been trying to snatch what's mine.

Still talking about that student of the year award?

Yes, why not? I mean, it was my mom's dream to see me get that award and when the time came for it to come true, he fuckin bought that! Moreover the whole 3 years when we were in the same college he had always tried to snatch my friends away. He turned them against me and it was only because of him that I left the degree in between and joined the special bodyguard training.

Even I don't like him. Do you know that bastard said chocolates are outdated?! I was so furious that would've fuckin smashed his head under a giant almira.

This is unacceptable!

You know what?

No!

You are unacceptable.

I held my head between my hands remembering all the shames that he had treated me with when a not-gentle-at-all knock was heard on the door. It was night, or say night-ish as I had spent the entire day in my room while princess was busy chatting with her friends. Well, her friends

Scared me to death.

With just their expressions.

The one whom they called Kavya, scared the shit out of me. I would happily admire Valak for one whole century but not that smile she saw me with. Literally, I was going to get seven nightmares in a row today.

And Airish, well I wonder in which temple was she born. She could be called the very saintly incarnation. Usually people are enlightened after years of penance on mountains and here she was the one who thought that she was the enlightened one by birth.

One ghost and the other priest.

As I opened the door Drishti stood in front of me with her fingers intertwine with each other. Her eyes lifted to me and her lips quivered to speak when she stopped, only to let out a sigh. "I love you Rakshit, Will You Marry Me?" I sighed and cupped her face, leaning towards her I whispered in her ear,

"Good night and get back to your room, you little idiot" And here I shut the door at her face not forgetting the 'o' shape of his lips and seem to come out eyes.

"Fuck you Kavya!" Came a scream from behind the door making me chuckle.

Children!

I smiled to myself as the vision of her cheesy proposal came in front of me but the when Amay's gaze at her came in my memory the smile faded once again. If he came to know that I love her but can't marry her, I know he would definitely try to get her and then he would convince Romi sir to semd me with him as a bodyguard for Drishti.b

And how are you so sure?

Old havits die hard guardian, they truly die hard.

                             ***

"No! You look like godzilla!"

"And you like a cheap witch!"

"And I am a bloody donkey!"

This happens when a trio of girls goes to shopping mall for buying clothes.

Let me explain, all the chaos is because Kavya and Drishti are not at all persuaded of each other's outfits. The first person is Kavya who just called Drishti a godzilla, second is Drishti who called Kavya a cheap witch and third is Airish who don't know why came from the fourth colony only to get involved in that.

"I look eternal! That pink lehnga is best!"

"Not at all! My black one is best!" I hid behind a maniquen, hell scarec that they would take me as a punching bag soon. If glares could kill, no one in this building could survive.

"East or west jean top is the best" Airish smiled cheekily holding up her buttoned up check blue and black shirt along with saggy black pants.

Kavya and Drishti looked at each other for a few time conversing through their eyes before throwing their lehngas away. "Where should we dump your body?"

My eyes could be lying on the floor now when I saw Kavya holding Airish's hands at her back and Drishti tickling Airish as she continued laughing and crying simultaneously.

Should I save her?

Look, she is their friend so she was tickled, you are their no one so you will get tortured and then killed, better stay out of it.

I am the freakin love of her life!

Who rejects her every now and then, how cute!

That doesn't matter!

Just imagine *stops*

Continue? Why did you stop?

Idiot! Look at the ceiling to create some environment for imagination! What would you do without me.

I looked at the ceiling, being in no mood to argue and started imagining.

You are continuously breaking her heart, she has a protective brother, scary friends and she herself is dangerous. Look, Airish is slapped twice in front of your eyes just because she picked jeans over lengha. What makes you think they all would leave you for chosing someone else over her?

That literally freaked me out! What would they do to me?

Nothing much, just simply boil you in a pot of boiling oil, pull out your hands and legs and other organs and then someone will carry you in a pollybag! And that's definitely not me.

Even if that scared me, I am not going to say a yes to that proposal.

Rot in hell Rakshit, rot in hell.

Before I could reply him my eyes went to the trio who was behaving really civilized all of a sudden while I was still hiding behind the maniquen and looking at the ceiling. But, why were they all looking at me?

Am I too handsome guardian?

Lmao!

What then?

My faced turned to the backside where everyone was watching and once I turned I knew what was it.

I am a freaking idiot!

"Shit!" I screamed as I saw Romi sir standing behind me, utterly confused why was I hiding.
