Riya's pov
"This is why i didnt take you in my room directly" he said.
And at that time i looked at him this is not what i expected him to say..............
What does he means?
I didn't want to think anything right now,.
Before i could ask anything.
Akash got up from bed, i saw his figure disappeared in closet.
Closing my eyes shut i took deep breath.
'May be he don't want to talk about anything or explain me '
getting out of bed i started to make bed before i leave.
Akash came out now wearing a white shirt, he didn't look at me rather he was looking at picture frame standing in front of it, i couldn't read his face as he was turned other side.
I was above to go but his voice stopped me.
"Riya..! Don't you Wanna know who she is" he said touching the frame.
I didn't reply, but waited for him to continue.
He turned towards me, his face showing the sadness.
"She was love of my life".
His word's hit me, and my brain refuse to understand anything,
Love of his life.........
Love of his life.........
Love of his life..........
His words kept ringing in my head
Did i came in between them?
Did i separate two lovers?
Oo god what did i do?
But then why, Akash married me?
My head was hurting now. But more than head my heart was hurting like someone has stabbed me, i looked up at Akash for answers. That's when i saw a single drop of tear that ran down through Akash eyes.
I had never seen him like this, so sad every time he had showed me his tough side but today....
Forgetting everything i went towards him. Taking his hand i made him sit on bed.
And asked him if he needs water, but he shook his head no. And wiped his eye's.
"I am sorry...... I came in between you two....." i said looking down, barely holding my own tears.
"NO...!" Akash said loudly that made me jump due to fear.
Akash cupped my face in his hands " she left me before you came Riya.....!!" he said...
"2 years ago i lost her, in a accident.. No no no i killed her... I couldn't safe her.... I was the one driving the car i should have been careful.... I killed her Riya... I... K.. Kil. Killed... Her....." Akash started to say. I saw he's fist clenched, his eyes showing anger for himself.
He got up from the bed and hit the wall near door.
I couldn't see him in pain anymore so i did what my heart was telling me to do, i went to him and hugged him from behind.

Whenever he hugs me close i forget about every pain maybe it will also help him. I wouldn't let him drown himself in pain of something he will never do.
He got stiff his heart beating wildly under my Pam's. Keeping my head on his back i spoke.
"no Akash, you didn't kill her, you yourself said that it was an accident right? So how can you kill her, and something are not in our hand to control they are meant to happen!!"
He turned around and took me in his arms tightly hugging me. As if his strength depends on me.
I felt wet drops on my shoulder and new that he was crying again.
Putting my hands in his hair i started combining them comforting him.
" I am sorry, you.....?!!" he was about to say something but his phone rang.
Breathing in he left me and picked his phone.
"Yes dad...!! Ya ill just get ready and reach there in half and hour.....!.. Ok.... Yes... Ok.."
He cut the call and again turned to me..
"i have to go to office," he said.
"ok" i replied.
" Riya i don't want to leave you alone, but iam needed in office.... I... I'll be back.. Soon... No..why don't you come..."
I stopped him "Akash it's ok iam fine now don't worry." i said smiling.
"ok but ill drop you at mom's place get ready" nodding i went to my room.
Getting ready in just 15 minutes i went out, Akash was still in his room so i made him coffe to drink.
As soon as i kept the hot coffee on table, he came out. Bluetooth device connected to his ear, and he was giving orders on phone.
I signal him to coffee he put his bag on sofa and sat down on table going through papers and talking on phone.
I also had my coffee silently, glancing at Akash in between.
His facial expression had turned to that when he is at work, hard look on he's face all professional.
One look at anyone from him and that person would ran away immediately.
I didn't realize that i was staring at him, that i jumped when he called me.
"Riya...!?" Akash was now standing with a flown on his face i looked at him and noticed that he had been waiting for me come with him.
Nodding at him i got up from chair my cheek feeling warm again, before i could walk a step, Akash caught my arm and turned me around.
His brown eyes searching my face. He brought his hand near my face slightly brushing my cheeks with his fingers.
I closed my eyes when i felt tingles..

"does it hurt" he asked his eye's displaying anger, i didn't understood at first but then i remembered he must be talking about my burise cheek from yesterday.
I pressed my face more into his hand, "no".
Giving me a small smile he took my hand and guided towards the door..
The ride to the mom's place was silent.
Once we reached Akash said goodbye and told me to take rest and don't go anywhere and stay in house.
I agreed to him i didnt want to go out either.
Entering inside i was welcomed by ma with a hug, she inspect me for any injuries. Seeing her i got emotional again.
If my mother could have been alive she could had taken same care of me.
Ma insist to have breakfast together out in lawn while enjoying the morning.
Whole day passed with all positive energy since ma kept on talking. She is like a teenager always taking some time i feal old in front of her.
Like right now we both were making dinner and waiting for papa anf Akash to come home. Ma was telling me how she always put the flour on her face all the time while cooking. And i agree because she did it again we were laughing, singing old songs.
I missed Akash, his face this morning always comes in front of me. I wish i could make him happy.
The sound of car broke my trance. "seems like ours husband's are her" ma said giggling. I laughed at her antics.
Opening the doors i was welcomed by furious looking Akash with papa.
He didn't speak to me just went straight towards his room.
I looked at dad, he came forward and kissed my temple.
"how are you dear" he asked.
"Fine papa,...! How was your day" he smiled and sat on sofa soon ma came with water.
"what happened" ma asked papa sitting beside him rubbing him arm.
"well Akash had to leave to Singapore in Three hours, the meeting is scheduled early, but he don't want to leave Riya alone,....! And i think he's right, i have to arrange something" papa said slightly rubbing his head.
I got in front of him " papa, can i talk about this to Akash, I'll be fine it's just matter of few days"
Sighing "Yes beta(child), but iam also needed there and i don't want to leave you both alone here its too risky with all the events happening recently"
"oo come, honey we will be fine.
And beside you have already arranged bodyguard so nothing will happen, right Riya..?" ma said i nodded.
"I'll go speak to Akash" both nodded at me, and i went to Akash room.
Knocking on door i heard come in, entering the room i found Akash sitting on bed his shoes, coat and toe thrown in room while he sat there with his head in hand.
This room always has some pictures of Nayna. But i didnt felt hurt like morning on seeing them.
"Akash" i. Whisperer his head jerk up and his eyes shoot to me.
He watched me. As i entered the. Room Slowly picking his clothes on way which were on floor.
"Riya" Akash called for me he forward his hand to me and without any thought i took it, keeping the clothes on bed i sat beside him.
Akash brush his fingers on my cheek and then pulled me for hug, my arms automatically came around his neck as i hugged him close.
God i missed him so much
Akash buried his face in my neck and inhaled.
"i missed you baby." he said his breath tickling my neck as he spoke.
Sighing i tighten my hold on him.
"Papa...! Told me everything, you should go....i know how much you had worked hard for this project its important.....! Ill be fine, ill stay here with ma still you return..!"
Once i finished speaking, Akash pulled away and i already missed his warmth. But he didn't pulled away completely but touched our forehead together.
I closed my eyes for brief seconds before opening them. Akash tucked some hair bangs behind my ears.
" i don't want to leave you alone" he said his breath now falling on my lips. I shivered my mind completely going blank.
" i won't me alone, and I'll be safe also. I know you will make sure of that, it's just few days.."
I said looking that his brown orbs. Taking his hand in my hand i said " i promise ill be safe, and waiting for you".
" don't break your promise, or else ill never talk to you" he threatened after some time.
I smiled at him nodding my head slightly rubbing our nose together in process.
Akash's hand came to my waist and he pressed his fingers in my side, which lead me in to giggles.
Because i am super ticklish.
"Akash stop..... Iam ticklish" i said between laughter, as i falled back on bed with him tickling me more. While i said trashed and grasp for air between mu laughter.
"I know" Akash replied he kissed my temple, my eyes also.
"ok i need to pack" he said getting up from bed.
"do you need help?.." i asked but he declined and i joined ma to serve dinner for papa and Akash before they leave.
