second chance by destiny

chapter 19

Sameera pov : -

It feels so different like something or someone changed around me.... I don't know about this feeling before....

Akhi is smiling way more than before like she knows something ...... And raj Bhai don't even ask about him....i don't know why he is so much happy.....

You don't believe if i say that abhiram sir is grinning like a fool everyday.... There is some glint in his eyes like he got something precious thing in his life....

i don't know why i feel nervous around him.... Sometimes my heart beats like a drum ..... I think i should go for a check up....

Anyways there is only one month for project completion after that we will part ways and never meet each other.... I felt a pang in my heart thinking about that.....

I got ready for office but mom stopped me saying she has something to discuss...

" Meera beta... I want you to remarry dear... Actually i have a boy in my mind....he is your college friend and he asked your hand in marriage.....please beta say yes to this marriage..... " Said my mother while holding my hands.....

I quickly took my hand from her grip and look at her with pain in my eyes.... Why can't she understand that i don't want to marry.... I can't leave her..... I can't give place in my heart because i already has my Deepu there ..... I will never marry anyone .....

" Stop it amma please......don't force me to do something which i never wanted.... Not before and not now.....

I agreed before and i don't regret that decision of getting married to my Deepu....he is the light of my life and no one can replace him....if you think that you can emotional blackmail me then you're wrong this time .....

if you don't eat then i wont eat ..... If you don't sleep then i wont sleep... And one more thing i will never leave you untill my last breath...." I said seriously with tears in my eyes....

I hate myself for behaving rudely with my mother.... She is my world....but she should understand me that i don't want someone else in my life....then i left home angrily

....

"Good morning ms Sameera" said abhiram said with smile in his face...he saw her fallen face and swollen eyes.. he got worried that what would have happened to make her cry...

" Good morning sir... Here is your coffee and your schedule for today " she said absent mindedly ....

Abhi took a sip of his coffee and cringed at the sweet taste of his coffee.... Yess Sameera added sugar in his black coffee without knowing.... She was thinking about morning incident....

" Ms sameera.... What happened....is everything alright" abhi asked with concern .....

"Yes sir .... everything is alright but why are you asking suddenly" she said innocently....his concern filled eyes are creating a havoc in her heart.....

" Because you added a ton of sugar in my black coffee...which you never did before.... So I thought something is bothering you.....that's why I asked if you don't mind you can share with me" abhi said sincerely....

Sameera was shocked at first then subconsciously took the mug from him and take a sip of his coffee....

yes it's sweet she bite tongue thinking that she added sugar in her boss coffee.... Now sure he is going to fire me.....

Abhi is shocked at her act first but then he smiled thinking that she kissed him indirectly by drinking the same coffee which drank before....abhi find her expressions are soo cute....

He just want to kiss her untill she is breathless.... He wants to hide her in his embrace from everyone.....her juicy lips ...chubby cheeks .... He just want to bite them .....

Suddenly Sameera expression changed and realisation hit her that she drank the same coffee which he tasted just now...

God ...! It's so embarrassing....how can I do that .... Offcourse the coffee is good ....it has slight mint smell around the mug....shut up Meera .... What were you thinking idiot....

why can't the earth swallow me from this embarassment.... suddenly i found the floor of the cabin is very interesting..... s**t because i cant face him now....

" I'm really sorry .... I was zoned out ..... I will get you another coffee ...." Said Meera and was about to take mug from table .... Abhi stopped her hand and grab the mug from the table...

" It's ok ms Sameera.... It's not bad actually..... I will drink this only .... You may go now " said abhi while looking straight into her eyes without blinking....

Sameera felt hot in that cabin ....she blushed while he is looking at her... " Why it is so hot in here.....but the ac is on...maybe it's not working.... I should be going from here... I can't handle this anymore... Something is happening to me" Meera thought to herself.....

She ran from the cabin like her tail got fire on it......abhi chuckled while looking at her running figure..

Today is i embarrassed myself alot.... But the thing is I totally forgot about morning incident....then he said no need to be embarrassed.... It will happen without knowing....

We went for a meeting with some client in a five star hotel....it's good that the deal completed ..... I badly want to go home and apologize to my mother ..... I have hurted her this morning ..... While we are having our lunch.....some waiter is coming towards me with bunch yellow roses....

" Excuse me ma'am.... Are you ms Sameera.... I nodded.... This is for you ma'am..." Waiter gave me the flowers ...

" Who gave it to me.....can you tell me where is the person who gave this.... And please keep these flowers infront of God" i gave those flowers to him but i saw a card in that bouquet.....

" He is over there ma'am.... He said you are his friend ....." Said the waiter....

I opened the card" please forgive this poor soul..." Who the hell is he? Why is he asking me to forgive him....

I saw abhiram sir is glaring at the card and he is clenching and unclenching his fists....is he ok...few minutes before he is happy because of the deal..now what happened....even raj bhai is glaring...

I was about to go to him another waiter came with a bunch pink roses....what the hell....this time abhiram sir grabbed those flowers and through it in dustbin.... Well i should have done the same thing .....

I went to that cabin along raj bhai .... But abhiram sir also tailed with us..." Excuse me " ...the man turned to my side to my utter shock ...

. He was my friend and college mate Ashish....what is he doing here....aki told me he is in Uk ..... Then what is he doing here.... Why is he sending me flowers....asking me to forgive him.....

" Ashish.... What are you doing here....and why are you sending me flowers..." I snapped at him......

because i don't know i feel little uncomfortable that it happened infront of abhiram sir....what would have he think about me.... Anyways whatever he think .... What does it has to do with me......

"what ......no hi no hello......ok let me come to the point...... Meera i am sorry for behaving rudely with you that day.... I know it has been years since that happened.... But i feel guilty even now....

I was so angry because of your rejection..i couldn't take it... Because you know na ... I have girls flock around me everytime and you simply rejected me ....

That's why i behaved like that.... Trust me im ashamed of myself ..... Please forgive me .... Yaar we are friends right..." He said with sad expression....but i don't want to be his friend anymore....

From the starting i never had a good feeling about him ....so i started distant to him ...but he asked me to be his friend because we were lab partners in college.....so i become his friend....but i never shared any bond with him.... I mostly tried to avoid him but he is so adamant to my friend....

" See Ashish... I forgave you a long time back only....infact i don't remember what happened .... As for your friend thing .... I don't want to be your friend.... Not before not now.... So I'm telling you to stay away from me .... I don't like this kind stupid acts ... Sending flowers and all .... You get that " i snapped at him ......

" Please Meera... Don't say like that.... I love you since the day i met you... I thought after i settled i will ask your hand in marriage... Because i know you are not into love and all....

But before i ask .... You are married to that deepak.... I was shattered when I came to know you are married....that to a middle class man ..... But i saw how happy you are with him .... That's why i let of you at that time ....

You know na i will never be a third wheel in anyone life.... Recently I came to know deepak died in an accident..... I thought I could get chance to be with you ....please Meera i love you ..... Please marry me ..... I will love you forever.... You will be my queen ..... You will lead luxurious life with me believe me " he grabbed my wrist and asking more like bruising my hand with his tight grip....

Thuuuuuuuuuddddddddddd......

I saw him in the floor blood dripping from corner his mouth ...oh my god ... Abhiram sir smacked his head and punching like a bag and raj Bhai also.... What happened to both of them .... I have to stop them before they kill him.....

" Sir.... Bhai ... Stop it .... Please.... He will die.... Leave him please ....Bhai stopped but sir is beating the s**t out of him....sir please stop.... Please... ABHI...STOP IT...." I shouted at the top of my lungs....

Wait... Abhi... When did i become so close to him ...no no it just slipped out of tongue... Yes yes that only that only... By the way his name sounds good na....ahhh shut up ...

Abhiram sir leave that i***t while huffing....i went towards him and said " Ashish listen to me carefully.... I never liked you from starting.... Love is the last thing i want to do with you....

i never wanted a luxurious life .... I just wanted a peaceful life that i got with my deepak.... As for you ... Are just a passing cloud in my life.... So never cross your path again... And here the persons just beat the s**t out of you are my family.... So don't mess with me again..." I said sternly and was about leave he said.....

" I won't be scared to anyone .... Not these persons or someone else..... I will make you mine ..... Mark my words .... You won't be able to do anything rather than being mine.... Get ready to be my wife....you will be mine forever Meera ....i wont leave you even if i die .... Just remember you will become mrs. Sameera Ashish tripati..... " He said while smiling with blood adorned mouth....

Abhiram sir and Bhai was about to kill him... I quickly grabbed their hands and dragged them out with me.... I have to explain somethings to them ...

" What is this bacha.... Who is that idiot.... Look at his guts he is warning you Meera... I will kill him " raj bhai furiously...

" Why did you stop us Meera....that i***t dare to warn you infront us... I will kill him with my bare hands...what nonsense he is talking" abhi shouted at me...

I flinched at his anger....but i like it when he called me Meera first time....

" Bhai ... First you both sit in the car ... I will explain everything in office don't make a scene here .... " We left to office ....

We went abhiram sir cabin ..... They both sat on sofa while i sat single seater sofa infront them .... I gave them water to chill a little ....

" Bhai ... Sir... He was my college mate ...he used flirt with me but i never paid any attention.... Then we become lab partners so he asked me to be his friend.... Although i don't want to be .... But i become his friend because we can't work with a stranger right...

On third year of our college .... He proposed me infront of whole college .....i rejected him politely but he was offended and just like today he grabbed my wrist and said some beautiful words about me being middle class girl and all....

He even asked my rate to become his.... I slapped him and next day he just disappeared like nothing ... After that i came to know he settled in abroad... His father is a businessman ....

Today only i met after these years... And see he showed his true colours....but i can't understand one thing.... Why he is so sure that i will marry him.... I have a uneasy feeling about this Bhai...." I said worriedly and i looked at abhiram sir .... He looks like he want to console me but stopping himself from doing that....

Why would he want to control... I don't mind if he console me.... No no what I am thinking.... Stop it Meera... Just stop thinking stupid things....

" Don't worry ms Sameera .... He won't do anything to you.... He has to face us before coming to you .... I won't let anyone touch what mine ..... I .. i mean you are raj sister so you also my family" he hurriedly explained to me ... I find it cute .....i feel warm when he said that.....but i have to tell them that i am a widow...

" Bhai i want to tell you something about me... I'm married Bhai.... His name is deepak ..... The love of my life .. i got married when I was doing my mba " then i explained everything that happened in my life and how i lost my love and all..... I burst into tears remembering all those sufferings.....

To my surprise they both hugged me and trying to soothe my pain mostly abhiram sir hugging me ....i don't like when someone hugs me rather than my family....but i don't know i feel safe and secure in his arms like their is no burden no pain....

.I'm relieved just with his simple gesture.... What is so special in him that i forgot my pain .... I broke the hug and saw him looking at me with so many emotions....angry....pain....helpless....love? What am I even thinking ....how can he love someone like me?...

no no i was overthinking about this.....but i saw the love in his eyes for me....i may have misunderstood his expression.....even if he like me now that he know about my past he will forget me completely.....

No one can love a person who is already in love with someone else..... Why am I thinking like this? Stop it Meera... Don't loose your mind.... You can't cheat on your love for deepak....stop thinking about him you were nothing to him......

I left from there hurriedly to calm myself.... You have to ignore these things which is happening to you recently meera....

I went home and apologized to my mother....which she smiled and hugged me to her heart content....

I got a message from unknown number that" i will always be there for you ...." I don't fell like this message creepy....i feel like someone out there understand my situation....i smiled and slept .................
