Beyond A Glance

CHAPTER 3

SURPRISE !!!!

Shiv's POV:

I was mesmerized to see her in front of me. It has been approximately 5 years since I last saw her. She was cute before with an innocent look, but now she is looking damn gorgeous and, oh, those chubby cheeks. I just want to pull them until they become quite pink or red. 'OK, Shiv, concentrate on what's happening here.' I reminded myself. I was talking with her father when I heard aunty shouting at her sister to get her ready. I just looked at her for a second, then continued talking with her father. What! I don't want to be perverted in front of her father for gawking at her. But with just one second look, I can tell that she is tired and wants a coffee. Oh, let me tell my girl is a coffee addict that too with a strong caffeine. Once, I let go of this diamond because of my stupidity, but now I know who she is. I'm determined to win her back now.

When I heard the word, she was not going to marry me. I noticed the determination in her voice and her sister Nithya's reaction to this. I can conclude that she did talk about me to her sister. I know it hurt her very badly, but still hearing from her mouth that she won't marry me hurts too badly. I need to talk to her alone and convince her to marry me. Thus, in a quick way, I asked her parents if I could talk to her alone. I knew she would protest if I asked directly, so I asked her parents while slyly looking at her. She looked pretty annoyed with my behavior and had a frown on her face, which I wanted to kiss it away. I need to concentrate on what is going on now without getting distracted. When I heard her parents accept me to talk with her, I was over the moon.

I immediately left the living room for her room with a giddy feeling to have some alone time with her. After reaching her room, I immediately locked the door, so I wouldn't have any disturbance while talking to her. When I turned around after locking, she was looking nervous. I was feeling smug because I still had some effect on her. I just took slow steps towards her to make her more nervous. Hehe! Don't curse me ok. I just like the feeling ;). Once I was near her, she started to ask me a lot of questions. I was in a frozen state for a while, but I got to know that she cared about me when she asked if my parents forced me to marry her. The loved I felt there was another level of happiness.

I just covered her mouth with my hand to quiet her down, but the softness of her lips made my mind wonder in places it shouldn't be right now. "OK, I came on my own when my parents started searching for a bride for me. They came across your profile. They just showed me your profile. I took it as a destiny and came to this bride-seeing event. I also wanted to apologize for whatever I did in the past," I said in a very sincere voice while looking down, because I didn't have the guts to look at her face and say all these things. My head shot up to look at her when I heard a sniffy sound. She had tears in the corner of her eyes while angrily looking at me. " What do you think of yourself? That I will accept you with an open hand when you just apologize to me. Sorry to say bro. I don't have any feelings for you. Just get lost from here. I don't want to see your face ever again". She yelled at me, but I saw red when I heard the word bro in her mouth.

I swiftly pulled her towards me and looked right into her eyes while asking" Who is your bro? I don't think i have another sister that i know of. I dare you to say" Bro" again." Then, I noticed her breath quickening and smirked down at her. " Bro, I told you to leave--- mmm". When I heard her again say the word bro, my mind went blank, and I spanked her ass for that she just moaned in my ears. " What happened, babygurl? Aren't you enjoying this too much? This should be your punishment", I asked in a husky, deep voice. I can hear her sharp intake of breath. I just massaged the place I spanked to lessen the pain and hugged her tightly to myself.

When I heard her breath slow down, I kissed her forehead before releasing her for the embrace. I also let the kiss linger for more than a moment like promising myself that I wouldn't let go of this gem in any situation. When I looked down at her, she was blushing so hard that her cheeks turned bright red that I couldn't help myself other than pull it. " Dey vidu da" (Hey, leave it), she shouted at me. " Please give me another chance. I will correct myself and love you like you deserve. This weekend I will take you on a date. Please" I begged her with puppy eyes. This is my first time begging, because before these girls will swoon over me for my looks. The one person who didn't see my looks was her, only her. I was looking like a failure when I first attended university. Then I did a major transformation which changed my looks and became popular in the university for my looks.

She took a deep breath and said "OK, just one chance. If you do anything which makes me consider my decision, I want you to call off the wedding." I quickly hugged her tightly and exclaimed," Don't worry, darling. i will treat you well." She turned to a different shade of red and said "Stop with those nicknames to butter me OK". " Oh, it not to butter you baby. It is just my way of claiming my love for you mi tesoro," I said with love. That's when I heard a knock on the door from my sister-in-law Nithya, who told her our parents were asking for us. I just went and opened the door where Nithya gave me a warning look which said' You hurt my sister, I will skin you alive', which literally gave me chills. I think my love saw that look because I heard a chuckle on my right side, and then she ushered us to the living room.
