The phone was still ringing, making me lose my mind. I looked at the screen and saw the caller's name.

It was Hardik!!

I took the call but I didn't say anything.

" Roshni!! Are you all right?? Why are you disconnecting the call?? Is your Hitler uncle around? " He asked.

I looked at her and she looked tense standing there and I was still holding her with one of my arms.

" Roshni!! Say something... " He was saying and my grip around her waist tightened.

" Hello?? It's Hitler on this side, tell me what is your problem?? " I asked and he seemed to be very shocked as he didn't react for a few moments.

" Oh, I am sorry, sir... I am extremely sorry... " He said stammering a bit.

" Why are you calling her at this time??" I asked for an explanation in a very hard tone.

" I am sorry, Sir, I was working on our project and I needed her help on something. And I didn't realise the time. " He said.

" Listen, boy... Do whatever you can on your own or wait for the morning. But don't you dare to call her after 8 PM or you will have to face the wrath of this Hitler. " I gave him a warning.

" But sir, it was important or I would not have called her. I have never called her so late. " He said.

" Ok, I will switch on the speaker phone, ask her whatever you want. I am listening too. And if the query is not genuine, I swear, I will make you regret that you called. Ask the question. " I said and he got tensed as there was no question. He just wanted to flirt, which I would never allow him to do.

" Sir, you are very angry at the moment, I have realised, I called at the wrong time. Sorry. " He said.

" Never dare to do it again or I will have to talk to your parents that you are harassing my ward. Or I have another option that I beat you to a pulp. " I threatened him.

" No, sir!! "

" Be within your limits or... be ready to face the music. " I said and disconnecting the call.

" Why did you talk to him like that, Manik Ji? Give me my phone, I need to talk to him and apologise, you can't behave like this. You are really behaving like a Hitler now. " She said.

" Hitler?? "

" Absolutely!! Give me my phone back. " She tried to get out of my arm and take her phone away from me. But I could not let her call him, so I held it away from her. And she tried to reach it but could not.

And then she jumped a bit to catch the phone but her body bumped into me with impact and I lost my sanity when her soft bosom touched my chest.

I held her there and moistened my lips as I felt that my mouth was drying, I was dying to kiss her.

She was still concerned about the phone and tried again and this time we both fell into the pond. Since I was standing with my back to the pond, I fell on my back with her wrapped in my arms.

Oh, God!!!

She was shocked and clung to me because of the sudden fall. Though the water was very cold , I felt hot from within.

She tried to get up but I didn't feel like leaving her. So I kept her wrapped in my arms and my eyes closed.

" Oh, my God!! Manik Ji !! Manik Ji! Are you alright I hope you didn't get hurt? Manik Ji! Get up, please. " She said pushing me a little.

I don't know what was happening to me, but I was enjoying even this situation. I think I was losing my sanity.

It was a cold windy night in February in New Delhi... and we were lying in cold water. And yet I was enjoying it.

She had started shivering by now and she was shaking me.

" Manik Ji, please get up, are you all right?? I must call Mihir Ji... But his phone number?? My phone? Oh, God!! Please, Let Manik Ji be okay. Manik Ji!! " She shook me harder this time.

It seemed that she was about to cry any minute now, so I opened my eyes and looked at her face, it was very close to mine. She was relaxed to see me open my eyes and asked if I was alright, I just nodded.

" Thank God!! Let's get out of this water I am feeling very cold. " She said with difficulty as she was shivering.

" I am sorry, wait a minute. " I said and got up with her in my arms. She tried to get out of my arms but I picked her up and came out of the water and made her sit on the flat rock.

She was shivering a lot.

Oh, God!!!

" Are you all right?? " I asked and she just nodded.

" Come with me, the cold breeze is blowing, let's go inside. " I said but she was shivering a lot.

So I picked her up and hurried inside to the guest room that she was supposed to occupy. I made her stand below the shower and started the hot water option. It seemed that she had almost frozen.

I felt very guilty that I acted there in the pond as if I was unconscious in the water, or we could come out of the water earlier. She was still shivering. I hugged her coming under the shower.

I felt very bad for her. She looked like a little girl, sobbing in the rain. She was in this condition because of me. I held her against my chest and tightened my arms around her.

It bothered me to see her like this. The hot water was pouring over me as well as her and after about two minutes she started coming back to normal.

She stopped shivering and looked at me with her beautiful orbs and I don't know why and how, but I did what I have dying to do for so long.

I bent and claimed her lips. The soft pink lips that have been inviting me to taste them. The lips that stole my first kiss and made me go crazy. The lips... that shook me to the core.

I placed my lips over her cold lips and it seemed that she was shocked too. She gasped and I caught her bottom lip and kissed it and then the upper lip. She kept standing there as if she was a statue. But I lost my sanity and kissed, licked and sucked her beautiful lips. I wanted...

Hell no!!

I wanted to...

No!! Don't even think about it.

I was still fighting against myself when I felt that she kissed me back.

My whole body seemed to paralyse due to sudden relief. I loved it so much. My whole body felt some kind of spark or something. I had never felt like that.

Oh, no!! I was losing control over my mind and body.

Hell, No!! I need to get myself together. But, I didn't want it to end.

Just then I realised that she was pushing me on the chest.

I broke the kiss very reluctantly. I looked at her.

" I am sorry to remind you Manik Ji, but it's me... Roshni. Not Myra. She said and tears started flowing from her eyes.

I wanted to tell her that I was absolutely aware of the fact. But she ran out of the washroom still crying.

I didn't know what to do so in frustration I punched the wall. Why did I do that??

I went out and saw that she was not in the room. Where had she gone??

I went out and saw her entering Mahi's room and thought of going after her to talk but just then I heard a car driving on the porch.

Someone has returned or shlok and Shaurya were here. I went to my room to change.

I took out my clothes and went to the bathroom to change.

Why did I do that?? Why?

Because you are falling for her. The inner voice said.

No!!

Keep saying that. You are not accepting your feelings for her and one day, you will not be able to accept them as it would have been too late to accept them.

I can't... I don't know. It is not right.

Then why do you want her so much??

I like her, not want her.

Don't lie to me!! Why do you get annoyed when some man or boy talks to her?

Because she is too young and naive I need to take care of her.

Liar! You are possessive about her. You get jealous when she talks to someone else. Why did you shout at Hardik? Why do you get uncomfortable when Sahaj or your friends or Hardik talk to her?

I am not jealous. I almost yell at my inner voice.

You are too possessive and get jealous as hell when anyone talks to her. You want her and you think you can't have her. You are an idiot!! My inner voice shouted back.

Just then there was a knock on the door.
