Atharva's POV

A minute later I felt her hand. I looked down and she intertwined her fingers with mine. I folded my fingers around her too and it started raining.

"Wow" her eyes brighten up.

She stood up while giggling.

"Do you love rain?" She asked me

"No" I stood up too.

"How boring," She said while making a face

"Let's go or you will fall ill" I hold her hand and dragged her under the shade.

"No, I am not going anywhere, I want to enjoy this rain" she moved away from me, stretched her hands and start to rotate in a circle, looking up in the middle of the ground. Water droplets were caressing her face and she was feeling the moment while closing her eyes.

"Hey, come na" she called me

"No, you come here" I ordered her like she follows.

"No, I will not," She said and put her tongue out like a kid.

"Shreya, stop behaving like a child. Let's go. It is raining heavily" I scolded her

"Kukkad," she said something like this.

"What?"

"Kukkad, kukkad, kukkad"

"What does that mean"

She ignored my question and started to walk towards the exit of the park angrily stomping her feet into the ground.

I followed her.

"Hey there wear your heels," I told her pointing towards the heels.

"No I will not," she said

"Then who will?" I asked

"You can if you want" she replied

"What?"

"Yes, it pains a lot. I am not going to wear them. Let them die here".

She is completely insane.

I just hate the rain. Our clothes were all drenched in water.

She started to run to cross the road and was about to come under a truck. I pulled her to my side.

"Are you MAD?" I screamed

"No, I am hungry"

"What?"

"Yes, I am hungry and I want to eat that bhutta (corn)" she pointed towards a stall under a shade.

She has got an eagle eye for searching food stalls on street.

"No, not again. It is raining and I will not let you eat this street food again!"

"Please na. Rain and this bhutta (corn) with black salt and lemon is the best combination ever" she said dreamingly

"No," I told her

"You are so cruel. First, you dragged me out of the party without letting me eat anything and now you are not letting me eat this too" she said whining.

"Okay, I will buy this for you only if you sit in the car"

"Okay," she said happily

I made her sit in the seat, put her heels besides her and ordered two bhuttas (corn) for her.

Ye ladki mjhse or kya kya krwaegi? (what else would this girl make me do?)

My phone dinged and there was a message from Prem
'Call me ASAP or be ready to announce your love to the world'

I opened the call log and there were 30 missed calls from Prem.

I called him

"Finally! You got some time for me too." He said in a sarcastic tone.

"What happened?"

"Congratulations, your love life is going to publish in the newspaper and magazine"

"What?"

"Yes, one of my sources has informed me that media has captured all your lovey-dovey moments. Now if you have got free from your angel then please go and do something or else is your wish. But do not disturb my sleep by calling me again. Bye". He cut the call.

" Sir, your bhuttas (corn)" the seller told me.

I paid him for that and went to my butterfly and found her sleeping peacefully in her seat. I didn't found it right to disturb her so I drove towards the resort.

I took her in my arms and walked towards her room, lay her on the bed, and ordered one of the female staff members to change her clothes.

I then went to the media without wasting one more minute to shut their mouth with money.

When I returned back I found that the door of her room was slightly open.

I went in and found her sleeping in a baby-style, rounded up like a ball. I think she is feeling cold.

I increased the temperature of AC, put a pillow under her head, and covered her from a blanket.

She stirred a little. I put my hand on her forehead and caressed it to calm her down.

" Soon butterfly soon, you are going to be mine!"

SHREYA'S POV

I was half awake and half sleeping. One line was continuously ringing in my mind, 'Soon, you are going to be mine'.

I wake up from the call of my mother.

"Good morning Mumma"

"Good morning beta"

"How are you?"

"I am fine"

"I have called just to remind you that you have a flight in 2 hours so just leave your bed and get ready".

" Yes Mumma, see you soon, bye"

"Bye, take care, beta"

I cut the call.

My head was throbbing with pain. It was feeling like someone is beating my head with the hammer. I pressed it to reduce the pain.

I was at the party last night, How I came here? And who changed my clothes?

Kukkad? No...no...no...no...he can't. But what if he has?....I felt heat outflow from my ears.

No shreya.....no. He is not like that he cannot touch you without your consent.

I tried to rewind last night's event in my mind.

I was at the party when that man gave me something to drink.

Oh hell yes, I was drunk yesterday. I don't remember everything thing properly but I was with him.

Oh God, I don't know what nonsense I have said to him when I cannot keep my mouth shut normally. I don't trust my mouth.

How would I face him now?

Shreya why are you so stupid. Someday you will be the reason for your own death.

I looked at my right side and there were two bhuttas (corn) resting on the table. From where did they come? Who put them here?

Besides them, there was medicine with a note attached to them.

'Take it, you will feel good'

Now, Who is this?

Oh God, so much confusion.

And why these words are continuously ringing in the back of my mind -

'Soon you are going to be mine!'
