"Rithu can I get some coffee!"

"Rithu can you arrange this papers."

"Rithu will you help me in fixing this errors in this documents."

"Rithu!!"

"What?"

"I want to tell you something. Sorry but... I forgot," he replied. There is something he wanted to tell but he is not initiating anything.

Vikram has totally changed after we became friends. He is not even leaving me for a minute. He's giving a lot of excuses to make me stay in his room. I think he is playing with me. He clearly knows that I am in love with him. And I clearly knows he likes me.

Then why this pretending thing Vikram please don't make hard for me get your love, I thought while standing on my balcony I am looking at the children who were playing down there.

A small smile spread across my lips to remind the moments when I was a kid. I and Riya are a huge troublemaker, we will do something that ends up terribly and also it brings scolding from our parents. When I was smiling like a fool Vikram came near me, it is Sunday so he was in the home but I didn't expect to him to stand beside me because he never did that before.

He was so close to me, I don't know why he is shortening the distance between us. He always maintains a distance between me and him but what happened now.

I slowly moved because I am feeling too hot to stand beside the hottest guy I have ever seen. His trimmed beard, piercing black eyes and his perfect jawline just killing me each second. I don't know what he's thinking about me but really I wanted to kiss his face, all over his face.

I think that rainy night triggered something in me. But after that Vikram never tried to kiss me.

Am I that unattractive!!

I think that is only a sudden passion he felt at that moment.

Whether he's really having any feelings for me. God why you're confusing me Vikram.

"Stop looking at me, it is awkward Rithu," Vikram said still looking at the kids.

He turned towards me with a grin and I immediately looked down.

"I didn't look at you, I was looking somewhere else," I reasoned.

"Is it!" he chuckled.

"Yeah. Ok how do you know that I am gazing at you, you're looking there right," I told.

Now he hovered before me. I was small in front of his large frame. I looked up to meet his eyes. "Ok, Rithu now answer my question. Am I enticing you?"

"NO!" I immediately replied. I am not going to utter a single word that I am in love with him or even like him. Because he's really playing.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, I don't have any special feelings for you now"

Hearing that Vikram smirked and nodded his head. I thought he will question more but he didn't. Whether my face has plastered that I am telling a lie. God, he can able to read me of what I am thinking but that much I am failing to understand the thing that is behind his smirk. That seducing smirk. What are you Vikram? Really what you are thinking about me.

I went inside the house leaving him all alone. To calm my throbbing heart I went into the kitchen to drink a chill water.

I prepared coffee for both of us, taking that I went to Vikram. He bought the cup and looked me in an obscure way that I never can figure out.

Drinking the coffee seeing the sunset with my hubby was such a beautiful thing that I experienced now. Blushing very hard I sipped my coffee and I smiled inwardly feeling like a crazy girl.

Next day I woke up at 6.00am and after finishing my morning chores I came out and went to the kitchen and looked for the ingredients to prepare a breakfast. While I am busy preparing the meal Vikram entered the house, he came after jogging. He smiled at me and went into his room.

It's been a month since we become friends and it does not give a big difference in our relationship, maybe it took some time for him to open his heart and to trust me.

What will he do? Most of the time he's busy with his work. He said that his current project will complete in two months and then he will be free for some time and he occasionally talks about his parents, work, Raghav.

But he never talked about his childhood and I wanted to ask him about the picture in his cupboard. But I kept my mouth shut because I looked his stuff without his permission and I thought he will get angry if I asked him about that and I don't want to ruin our friendship.

After preparing the breakfast I went to his room he was dressed formally and checking his mobile when he noticed me he slide his phone into his pocket.

"Breakfast is ready," I said.

"Ok I am coming," he said.

"Tomorrow you're leaving right," he asked me.

Yes, I am leaving him, but for just a week. I missing my family and I am going to enjoy a week with everyone. But I am also sad for leaving Vikram if he asks me to stay here I will definitely do that but he's not going to say that because I am still confused about the fact that he's not seeing me the way I am observing him I thought.

"Rithu," Vikram called me again.

I cleared my thoughts, "Yes tomorrow morning," I said.

"Ok I will drop you at the airport," he said.

Then I served him the breakfast and I went to my room to take his file. Yesterday he gave the bunch of papers to arrange them so I did.

When I came out Vikram was checking my phone I was shocked to see that when he saw me his face reflected a wrath, I went near him he showed the picture of childhood photo that I took on the other day.

"I can explain," I said but he cut me off.

"When did you take the picture did you opened the cupboard how did you do that?" he roared like I did the biggest mistake.

I was scared and my eyes were welled with tears.

"I didn't do that on purpose it was open so I looked at," but he again cut off me.

"Oh, if it is open you can see anything right, look... don't interfere with my personal things or else I don't know what I will do," he started angrily and glared at me.

Tears rolled down to my cheeks to see his change, I destroyed everything. Vikram is fully disappointed with me. What I am going to do to get his trust again.

Then Vikram put his shoes and without glancing or saying anything he left me.

I started to cry that's what helpless me can do. I sat on the couch, don't know what to do and how to explain myself to Vikram.

I sat there thinking why Vikram was so angry after all it's just a picture why he's behaving like this. I did nothing wrong I am his wife why he having secrets with me.

But right now I understood that I ruined everything. Suddenly I realized my phone was ringing it was my mom. She inquired about me but I am not in the mood to talk with her, "I will call you later mom." I said and ended the call abruptly.

I went to my room and took a shower and cleared my mind. I came out and took my phone. I called Vikram but he's not picking up and I am not going to give up and called him again and again but he cut off the call. I thought why Vikram is so stubborn but I tried for the last time, at last, he took my twenty-fifth call.

"What you want? I am busy," he said.

"But please listen to me," I said and felt ashamed for pleading him when I did nothing wrong but there no other choice.

"I don't want to hear anything and erase that photo on your mobile I am ordering you," saying that he ended the call.

But again I called him but he switched off the phone.

I dropped the phone and sat on the bed, I not even done a big mistake I don't know why he was this angry.

It was so hurting thinking about his anger. What I am going to do now I thought. The day went off thinking about this I didn't eat anything I was pondering about how to prove myself and I thought I definitely have to find the secret behind that picture.

I waited for Vikram but I know he won't come early I waited and waited but I gave up because I have to go tomorrow so I went to my room and slept.

I woke up at 7.00am in the morning with a tired filled body. I had my periods along with the stomach cramps, then I somehow managed to get myself ready, I already packed my bag after taking shower I went out and started preparing breakfast. Before I was blushed to face Vikram but now I am scared.

Then I saw Vikram coming out of his room and I don't want to talk about anything because I am tired I don't want to argue with him before leaving.

"Get ready quickly," he said.

I nodded and went to my room and changed my clothes and we had our breakfast in silence.

I picked my bag there is no heavy luggage just some things and my phone.

We came out and he closed the door he drove me to the airport and not even said a single word to me.

When we reached the airport I came out of the car and looked at Vikram, What he's not going to coming inside with me, I thought.

When he again started his car I stopped him.

"Wait I have to say one thing so please listen to me, I know what I did was a mistake I am not interfering with your personal life It just happened. So think about that and I am sorry for everything that made you mad," I quickly said by controlling my tears and immediately walked.

I came into the airport and looked at the entrance hoping that Vikram would come inside but he didn't, I cried but I whipped my tears away and went for the checking.

I am hating myself for shedding tears for this fight, but I realized he means more to me that is why I can't take his anger on me.

My heart was aching than my stomach ache, I sat on the plane uncomfortably after one and half hours I came to Coimbatore.

Uncle was standing there to pick me I saw him and smiled at him and he smiled back. I asked about his health and other stuff pretending that I am happy.

He drove me to his house I was excited to see Lakshmi aunty, when we reached the house she was waiting for me and I hugged her.

Then we all went inside the house and she asked my life in Chennai even though we talk every day.

I said everything except the fight we had yesterday and I went to Vikram's room and laid in the bed I thought I can ask this about with Lakshmi aunty she will tell the truth but I thought Vikram will get angry so I dropped that idea.

In the evening I went to my house, Rajesh uncle insisted on dropping me but I said I will go on the bus. He hesitantly allowed me, I sat in the window side seat I felt somewhat relaxed when the cool breeze hit my face I missed you Coimbatore I mentally said.

When I entered my house Riya ran towards me and crushed me with her hug. Then I hugged my mom, my dad smiled at me and they all asked several questions..... God, I didn't answer this much of questions even in my exams I thought.

"I am going to stay here for two days and rest of the days in Vikram's house," I said to my mom when she asked about how long I am going to be here.

"Okay," she said.

The rest of the evening went so nicely but I was thinking about Vikram whether he had dinner, what he's doing now, will he call me or not and all, but there is no call or any single message from him.

I felt really tired so I went to my room it was the same when I left here, I laid in my bed and closed my eyes I thought what Vikram is going to do with me and tears streamed out of my eyes.

Vikram I hate you, I hate you for not understanding me. But still, I am loving you and always thinking about you why my stupid heart is being like this.
