Viaan turned to smirk at me, "In the due time love, in the due time which isn't now. There are a lot of things that you have no clue about, yet."
"Not fair, Viaan! There are just so many secrets surrounding you guys," I pouted hoping he would cave in.
"Which are best kept secrets," Was his only counter.
"Gosh, not this again!"
I must say, I was very much fed up with all the secrets that my family harbored.
"Why don't you simply let this be for some other time and focus on the wedding that's coming soon? Anjali must be missing you."
"What the hell? Anjali's marriage got fixed? And you get to know that before me?" I felt my blood boiling! Oh, that Anjali!
Viaan laughed, "relax babe, your phone was unreachable and we were busy with the preparation for the interview this morning when Uncle Aadarsh had called to inform you about it."
"And you will be with me?"
He looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
"For the marriage," I added with a blush.
"I guess I should. Can't risk you getting kidnapped once again now, can I?" He huffed playfully before turning to deliver a smirk at me.
"You are such a jerk, you know that?" I rolled my eyes but couldn't hide my smile.
Grabbing me by my waist and pulling me flush against his chest, Viaan whispered in my ear, "I remember you announcing it loud and clear before the board members during the assessment. Don't you?"
I felt my cheeks darken in embarrassment as the people kept staring at us. I tried to get out of his steel grip, "Viaan... let go. People are staring at us."
"Let them stare. It's not always that they get to enjoy a free show. You are mine, anyway. And this will just re-emphasize it."
I shook my head with an amused smile, "and I knew you were a barbarian in a suit but today you just proved to be a caveman too. Beating his chest saying 'me man, me provide, you mine'."
He raised his eyebrow, "now you are being too humble by adding more to the list."
"It's like what Luv had said."
"Said what?"
"That I would get a real jerk, barbarian and a caveman in my life."
"Well, how did it all come to be like this? Who started it all?" Viaan mocked staring into my eyes as if telling me that I was to be blamed but I had other plans.
I gently pushed him away and he let go of me before grabbing hold of my hand again. I mocked a sigh as I replied, "If you ask me, I would only say that it started with an impulse."
"Impulse now, seriously?" He raised his eyebrows and shook his head with an amused smile.
"Yes, an impulse of a dog to chase me, my impulse to save myself, Aaryan's impulse to hunt me down after that and your impulse to accuse me."
I couldn't believe that I had listed down all the impulses.
"Shouldn't it be impulses then?"
"No, not impulses," I shook my head before looking at him and explaining, "since everyone had only one impulse each but yours is the one to be counted because that was what changed everything for me. My entire existence got a whole new meaning because of it."
He pursed his lips before letting them free. A genuine smile slowly formed on them, "and you gave a meaning to mine."
