Like a dancing leaves in joy amidst the harsh air, his heart danced in glee looking down at the soft head that was laying on his lap. Her cheek pushed against his rough thigh, while his finger intruded through her hair. He wish, things would stay as they are now. But he knew the reality was yet to come. After she fainted, The doctor comforted him that the faint was just the outcome of her shock.

He retreated his hand as she started stirring on his lap. He groaned when her head unknowingly brushed against his manhood. Her eyes slowly opened, accommodating to the bright light. Just like that when her eyes locked with his, she skidded away from his lap and groaned.

"Shreya, Are you okay?" Avyan frowned.

Shreya rubbed her forearm with a groan and looked at Avyan. He looks more mature in three years and his charm is still dominating, his unerring feature flaunting naturally. Her heart hammered against her chest, struggling to get away from her and embrace him tightly.

"You are real," Shreya whispered in disbelief.

Avyan smiled softly before he whispered, "Im so–"

A loud slap cut off him and she prattle, "For Forcing me", Another slap, " For loving you" Another slap, " For trusting you", Another slap, "For leaving me".

He stood there with mouth gaping as the sound of her slap resonated in his ears like a broken record. His heart ached as he saw tears erecting in her eyes. He shook his head and walked to her while she stood there unfazed.

His lips met in contact with hers forehead and he admitted, "For Forcing you", Another tender kiss, "For breaking your trust,"

"Stop," Shreya murmured and pushed him.

"I'm sorry, Shreya" Avyan apologized.

Shreya chuckled mirthlessly and said, " Yeah British king left royal apology letter to his queen before Killing her"

Avyan gulped and said, "I—

"Why did you try to kill yourself?" Shreya demanded an answer.

Avyan smiled. She still cares.

"Answer" Shreya gritted out.

"I was not able to live without you" Avyan accepted.

Fresh pair of tears boomed in her eyes. Her fingers jammed into his chest and she accused, "Do I ever have rights in our relationship?"

"What?" Avyan snapped.

"You loved me, So you wanted me to love you back. You want to marry me and you want me to agree. You want to leave me, and You left"

He opened his mouth but again she cut off him, "Why did you forget to leave money when you think me as a thing to use as if I'm some prostitute women?"

"Shreya" Avyan growled warningly, his fists clenching and unclenching.

"Don't put words in my mouth" Avyan  snapped while she looked at him in disbelief. 

"That is the only thing left to hurt me" Shreya said brokenly while wiping her tears harshly.

"Sorry is the only thing I have" Avyan admitted, not having valid definition to defend himself.

" Sorry?" Shreya scoffed and continued, " With that word, I can go back to past and collect the tears I have wasted!"

Avyan heart stung as her words replayed in his head.

" I was guilty and I wanted to punish myself" Avyan gulped as his caught the disgust in her eyes for a second.

" You should have stayed with me at that time, comfort me, heal me with your touches. I was nearly raped! You don't love me, You just want to trap me in your toxic emotion. You are pyscho, You should be send to asylum!" She spat out angrily.

" My love is not toxic," Avyan said furiously.

" Never mind" Shreya shrugged, gulping the emotional breakdown that was threatening to come out.

Locking her eyes with his, she said, " Past is past and I couldn't believe I just wasted my time again because of you. Like you never stand infront of my eyes in those three years, I expect you to do that for rest of your life"

Avyan looked slightly surprised and he said, " You know, I was here"

Shreya rubbed her face in irritation and decided to leave instead of wasting her time in arguing with him. She turned her back and took a long stride but stopped just as he spoke,

" You came here for an interview"

"After deciding I don't want this job, Why do you think I will waste some more time in talking with you?" Shreya snapped.

Avyan snorted and said, " Why if you take up this job, you think you will fall for me?"

Shreya rolled her eyes and said, " You wish"

Her hand rested languidly on the door handle as he argued, " You will fall for me, and I'm sure, I would not fail in this challenge"

" Again you wish!" Shreya said, not giving any amusing thoughts about his cockiness.

" Then, prove that by taking up this job!" Avyan smirked.

" I don't need to prove" Shreya gritted out.

Avyan kept his hand on his chest and said dramatically, " I knew, You wouldn't be able resist me!"

She knew, he is triggering her but still in the corner, she wanted to prove to her more than him. She wanted to prove herself, that she is not replying on him for surviving.

" I agree to work" Shreya declared
