Caught In A Cuff

Gift From The Lift

Aleesha's POV

I was on my way when I made a call to Zara. She picked it up instantly and before I could say anything she started yelling at me." Where the hell have you been .why were you not answering my calls and messages. I even tried to call your mom but her number was unreachable. Is everything fine? Are you okay?"She kept shooting questions at me one after the other without pausing for a second." okay okay calm down babes. Everything is fine. I am perfectly fine. I'll explain everything to you once I reach there. I am on my way and I'll be there in hardly ten minutes." I said trying to calm her down. " Okay listen, my cousin, Warisha will be waiting for you at the hotel entrance door. She will lead you to your room. Just go with her. keep your stuff in your room and then rush back to me in the backyard.I'll be waiting for you there. The whole Haldi function is organized at the backyard. Sorry, I could not come to receive you, I am already occupied for the rituals. Zara informed and I listened to her carefully. I reached the place in ten minutes and as Zara said Warisha was waiting for me. She led me to my room which was on the fourth floor in a 22 story hotel.Warisha left by informing me about the way to the backyard. I kept my bag, went to the washroom, got freshen up, and then left for the lift after locking my room. I walked into the lift to get down to the ground floor. The lift's door was about to shut when someone from the outside pressed the button and it opened again. To my shock, the man standing right in front of me was the same green eyes man whom I met yesterday at the mall. He was equally shocked to see me. He stood still for a while and kept staring at me through his piercing eyes. It felt very uncomfortable.I started looking here there, pretending to ignore him. He moved in and stood next to me. Til the time we reached the ground floor he kept staring me continuously. I could feel his eyes on me all the time.

Hasan's POV

I got dressed up for the ceremony wearing my yellow kurta and white pathani salwar and came out of my room in a hurry. As I was locking my door I heard a ting sound of the elevator whose door was about to shut. I quickly finished locking up the door and rushed towards the lift. I got there on time and pressed the button before the door cold close to completely. The door opened and I could not believe my eyes to what they saw. My girl was standing right in front of me. how could it be possible? The girl for whom my men searched the whole night is standing right in front of me looking splendid. It feels like its a gift from the lift. Her beauty made me numb again. The innocence on her face is something to die for..I controlled my trail of thoughts and shook my head to come back to reality. I silently moved in and stood right next to her, leaving very little space between us. She shifted a little away to increase the distance between us but I gain moved close to her. She was uneasy around me but I was enjoying teasing her. I really wanted to hold her hand and pull her into a tight hug but I think that would be way too much for now. But one day I'll make her mine forever. And once she is mine I'll do whatever I would want to. I don't know what but there was something very attractive about her innocence. And that innocence belongs to me. Only Me. We reached the ground floor in a matter of seconds. The door opened and she quickly moved out of the lift as if trying to run away from me. I tried to go after her but then I spotted Amma waiting for me at the breakfast table." Run as much as you want my love but nobody on this earth can take you away from me. You are mine now." I smirked.
