Unwanted Fiance

Chapter 11

ARJUN KHURANA

The next day I woke up when my phone started to ring. I groggily opened my eyes, feeling disoriented and abruptly closed them when the direct rays of sun hit my eyes. Why the hell is the window even open so early?

My phone rang again and I slowly tried to open my eyes. I looked around the room to search for my phone and I realised that I was not in my room when I remembered yesterday's events. I forgot I was in Sakshi's room. I saw the empty sheets beside me. She is not here. From the coldness of the sheets, it looks like she woke up some hours ago. Where did she go now?

The phone rang for the third time and I found it under my pillow. I don't even know how it got there. I looked at the caller's name and it was my PA who was calling me. 

"Yes?" I asked in a cold, professional tone after picking up the call.

"Sir you have a meeting at 9:30 am with Mr Williams and Mr Sylvister. It's 9 am now, so I thought I should inform you about the meeting." He replied. What? 9 am? Did I sleep that much? How can it be possible?

"I'll be there in 20. Until then keep them busy. Give them some tea or breakfast." I said and cut the call. I have to hurry now for the meeting now otherwise I'll be late.

I soon got out of the bed to take a shower but stopped when I saw a no0te on the nightstand. 

Roses are red

Violets are blue

You sleep like a buffalo

What am I gonna do with you?

I chuckled after reading the note. Sakshi seems to really like poetic stuff. Hmm. Maybe I can write some poems to impress her. As if. I will just make myself look like an i***t.

Then I saw another note which had fallen down while I was reading the first one. So I picked it up and opened it.

I had some work to do so I left. You can take a shower in my room and have breakfast before you leave.

And don't you dare to breathe a word about yesterday to anyone.

-Sakshi

P.s. I still hate you ;)

I laughed a little after reading the second note. We'll see Ms Varma until when you hate me. Sooner or later you'll have to give in to me. With that thought, I headed towards the bathroom to take a shower.

As soon as I went inside the bathroom I stripped and hopped in the shower. I need to hurry otherwise I'll be late. 

I turned on the tap and closed my eyes as I felt the water fall over me, the hot water relaxing my muscles. But I stilled when the smell of something hit my nose. What's the smell? It smells like chicken soup. 

"What the-s**t!" I swore and abruptly closed the shower when I saw blue liquid coming out of the showerhead. Luckily the blue liquid just missed my hair as I had moved back when the smell hit my nose but I still smelled like chicken, chicken soup to be precise.

Fuck. What is this sticky s**t? 

Then suddenly I remembered the conversation I had with Sakshi yesterday.

What do you think of pranks?

Yesterday when she had asked me that I thought it to be some random question which she had asked out of curiosity, but no I was so wrong. She had asked me because she was going to do this to me. That b***h better run now, because the next time I see her she's dead.

I immediately left for my penthouse after taking an hour-long bath in the guest bathroom. I still smell like chicken even after rubbing myself with soap for so many times. At least I don't look blue. That's a good thing I guess.

When Sakshi's dad saw my state he laughed. Yes, he freaking laughed on my face and then told me good luck while I just scowled and left. Both the father and daughter will make me mad one day. I guess I brought it upon myself when i agreed for this marriage but I'm not the one to back out from a challenge.

I asked my PA to cancel my meeting after the bathroom incident because I don't want them to ask me why I smell like chicken. I don't want to humiliate myself in front of my whole staff. God knows what might be published in the tabloids if any of the reporters get wind about this. I can even imagine what would be the headlines of the news.

'THE SUCCESSFUL BILLIONAIRE GOT PRANKED BY HIS OWN FIANCE.' 

The doorbell rang interrupting my train of thoughts. As soon as I opened the door Yash pulled me towards him and started to smell me.

"Man you smell like chicken!" Yash exclaimed after he was done smelling me. 

"Are you mad? Why the hell are you trying to sniffle me?" I scowled at him and pushed him back a little. 

"You called me here urgently. I left my meeting in the middle because of you so don't you dare to scowl at me." He went towards the kitchen, opened the fridge and took out an apple. 

"Yeah make yourself at home why don't you?" I sarcastically said when he plopped on the kitchen table still biting the apple.

"Don't worry. I will." He said while chewing the apple, then added, "but first tell me why do you smell like my favourite food." He raised his eyebrows at me and I just glared at him.

"Guess who pulled a prank on me?" I grumbled and he just laughed.

"Oh man, she did this to you? Savage." He said between laughs. He was laughing as if  I had told some big joke. I just glared at him and moved towards the other side of the kitchen and started to spray myself with deodorant. Don't even ask what it is doing in the kitchen. I don't even know who puts these things here.

This is all her fault. I swear I'll kill Sakshi with my bare hands when I see her. No, it'll be an easy out for her. I'll play her own game and show who's the master in it. I smirked when I saw the kitchen knife on the table.

"Uh-huh, that smirk is an evil one. What are you planning to do? And why are you looking at the knife like that? Are you planning to kill her?!" Yash asked sobering up when he saw the look on my face.

"Yash, Yash, Yash. You ask too many questions. Just wait and watch what I am going to do with her." I took the knife and cut the apple on the table in halves.

Sakshi you should run now because you just unleashed the devil who wanted to be out for a long time now.

"Yash, do me a favour, will you?" I asked, still smirking.
