Ameya's Point of view :

I woke up early today. Not sure why but I have this weird feeling as if something is going to happen today...

I brushed all my bad feelings aside, got up, and took bath. I opened my cupboard to select white kurta and red leggings to wear with matching jewelry. I have applied little makeup and bindi. I left my hair loose as I washed my hair today.

Once I got ready I went downstairs and saw dad sitting near the dining table. I went near him and wished him Good Morning. He smiled in return and wished me the same with a smile wider than mine.

My dad is a doctor and I love him a lot. He loves me a lot too. I lost my mother immediately after my birth. From that day, all I have is my dad. I can do anything for him except leaving him for any pleasures in the world.

I had my breakfast prepared by Lakshmi, our maid but we never treated her as one. Lakshmi came with a bowl in her hand and a wide smile on her face which is somewhat mischievous. She told 'Good morning DEEDI' and I smiled in return taking poori from the bowl.

I had breakfast and said my byes to dad. I went to college and the day passed very slow till lunch until I met Bhavana, my best friend.

We both had lunch together and chatted about all the weird stuff and gossips and then left for our classes. I have forgotten to say that I am studying engineering. I am from Computers and Bhavana is from electrical so we don't have classes together.

After my classes are over I went home with Bhavana on her scooty. When we came near my house, I saw a lot of vehicles parked in front of my house. I got surprised as I have never seen these many vehicles near my home. I told Bhavana bye and went inside. I saw my dad talking with one couple. A lot of people are sitting, standing, talking, and doing a hell of a lot of things that felt weirder to me.

I noticed that some of the people were my relatives and a few I know very well. I removed my white heels at the entrance and entered the hall when Lakshmi saw me and shouted 'Deedi came'. Then my dad smiled widely and called me 'Princess... Come hear and say hello to your attha.

dad's sister or mom's brother's wife

...

I am shocked. I never met them and my dad introduced her as his sister. He never told me he has a sister. And now here they are, in my home. I forced a smile on my face and went to meet her and the person next to her who I assume to be her husband. I gave my hellos and turned to go to my room as I have to digest this.

I turned around and stood at the entrance of the stairs thinking about this weird family meeting. I climbed the stairs without seeing the front which made me collide into something. I was about to fall when one unknown hand got hold of my hand and that person's other hand got hold of my waist. That mysterious person dragged me with a force. Now I am in someone's arms with one hand around my waist and one holding back of my hair.

I am jarred by this sudden encounter. I heard people talking from downstairs and my dad calling my name to check whether I was fine or not. I smelled an intoxicating scent which is too good. I kept smelling that scent without having any intention to move or leave. Those hard and well-built arms held me tight to his chest.

I opened my eyes and lifted my head to see the face of the Mysterious person whose hand is still caressing my waist. I am not at all bothered to remove it any time soon. I saw a pair of brown beautiful eyes staring into my blue ones with a trace of a small smile forming on his amazing lips . Then I heard his voice. "Hi. You okay?". I didn't respond and was still looking into his eyes and then his hand left my waist and I somehow felt bad for that.

He stepped up one stair maintaining a safe one-step distance between us. The tall man ran his fingers through his gorgeous silky black hair. Then I heard my dad calling from down ."Princess, You are okay right?" I turned back and went down as fast as my dazed legs allowed me and stood beside my dad with my eyes staring down. My stupid eyes kept checking that handsome man whom I have allowed to touch me in that way for the first time in my life.

Yeah, it's true. I never had a boyfriend and I never felt this way with any of the boys whom I met in these past 21 years.

I turned to my dad as he was asking if I am okay and then I replied him I was fine . Lakshmi came and took my bag and gave me a glass of water. I drank the whole glass as if my life depended on it. Once done, I noticed that my savior is sitting opposite to me beside the lady whom my dad introduced as his sister.
