Childhood Dreams

Dharani Pov

*************

I woke up early as I set up alarm to make me wake early. I completed​ household chores. Today, I am going to work in Akash's company and I am very nervous. But yesterday, Akash gave me strength. I never knew Akash's words can be this much encouraging. His words made me confident. He said the office starts at 9 am and it's already 7 am. I thought to prepare breakfast. Akash came to kitchen and raised his eyebrow at me.

"Angel, why are you doing so much work? I already told you that I will hire a maid. Why don't you listen to me?" he said to me.

"Akash, I already told you that I like doing household works and you always say that you like my handmade food" I said to him and he sighed.

"Angel, I love your handmade food but I don't want you to take too much stress. Since today onwards you are going to work in our company also, so please let me hire a maid" he said to me, holding my hands lovingly.

Aww, my husband cares for me so much. I want to hug him.

No no control Dharani. Control.

"Ok Akash, as you say" I said. He smiled and kissed my forehead.

"Come, we have to choose your office attire" he said taking me to our mini mall.

How am I going to manage in modern dress? I know I agreed to him yesterday that I will wear modern dress but I don't know what to do. We entered the mini mall and he opened the western dress closet and started searching a dress for me. He searched for fifteen minutes.

Then suddenly he shouted "perfect!"

"Angel, please wear this dress." He handed me a beautiful white floral knee length dress. I took and went to change.

I looked up only to see my reflection in the mirror.

Wow! Is this really me?

OMG!My legs are visible in this dress. I can't go out like this to office but I don't want to disappoint Akash too.

Please give me strength. I prayed to god.

Then suddenly I heard Akash saying "Angel, are you ready?"

"Hmm yes, one minute please" I replied.

"Ok, come fast" he said to me.

I am feeling very shy. I slowly opened the door and there stood my husband in all his glory, the devilishly handsome Akash Mehra. He was looking like some Greek God. His pupils were dilated and his eyes were shining with love. Akash came and stood in front of me.

"You are looking gorgeous Angel. I can't take my eyes off you. You look stunning, my angel" Akash kissed my cheek, I shyly smiled at him.

"Are you ready to go, my Angel?" Akash asked me.

I just nodded my head in agreement. After we ate our breakfast. We made our way to Akash car. He opened the back passenger door for me. I immediately got inside the car. Akash too did the same and ordered his driver to start the car. For the entire ride, I kept looking out of the window, but from the corner of my eyes, I saw Akash continuously staring at me.

What a beautiful Angel is sitting in front of me! I just can't take my eyes off her. I can't stop myself from admiring her. She is the most beautiful innocent girl I have ever seen in my life. She is my love, she is my life! She is my Angel, I can't live without her! She is all mine and I am all hers.

When she opened the room door, I just can't control myself. She was breathtaking beautiful in her white knee length dress. I wanted to kiss her sensually, but I don't want to scare her doing it, so I control myself.

Then I told her "You are looking gorgeous Angel. I can't take my eyes off you. You look stunning, my angel" I kissed her cheek, she shyly smiled at me.

Oh my innocent angel!

You will be the death of me!

Soon, we reached the office. We started walking into his office. This is the first time I am coming here. The office is so beautiful. Big chair's were arranged and everyone were very busy. I am feeling very nervous. Akash sensed it and pulled me closer holding me by my waist.

Then suddenly Akash announced "Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to present to you my wife, Mrs.Dharani Akash Mehra. From today onwards, she is going to work in our company as the new designer for Mr.Knight project. So let's welcome her" Akash said and the staffs welcomed​ me with smile and claps .

Then, Akash took me to his cabin "Angel, this is my cabin and your are going to work here, beside me" he said and looked to his left side, where a big table was neatly arranged.

What? I am going to work in this cabin? If he sits beside me, I can't work peacefully because his one intense gaze will make me weak. Now a days, his proximity affects me very badly. I want to work with a peaceful mind, but how will I tell him this?

"Angel" Akash shook me lightly.

"What happen Akash?" I asked him coming out of my thoughts.

"I was calling you since five minutes, what are you thinking? You don't like the table? Don't worry I ask them to replace it" he called his PA but I stopped him, holding his hand.

"No no, I like the table but......" I paused not knowing how to tell him.

"But what Angel? Tell me" he asked me.

"I.....I......I don't want to sit here with you. I want another cabin" I said and looked at him. His expression broke my heart. His face showed pain.

Idiot Dharani, What did you do?' my inner voice scolded me.

"You don't want to work here with me?" he asked painfully.

"No No Akash, you are misunderstanding me. I mean I....." I tried to tell him my situation but he interrupted me.

"No Angel. Don't say anything, I can understand. You don't want to see my face and that's the reason you want another cabin. Ok, no problem. I will arrange you a new cabin. You can work there without seeing my face" he said and turned around, showing his back to me. But I can see his face clearly through the front glass. Tears were rolling down his face. I felt very terrible making my husband cry.

I can't see him crying. His tears makes my heart ache.

God! What's happening to me? I can't stand his single tear drop.

Why god? Why?

'This is called love Dharani!' my heart said.

'No No Dharani! Its not love, this is just humanity' my mind said.

Shut up, you heart and mind. Now I have to console my husband.

I walked to Akash. I don't know what took over me. I hugged him tightly from behind and held his torso. I kept my face on his shoulder and he stiffened.

"Akash, please don't cry. You misunderstood me. I don't want to work in this cabin, you know why? My reason is because your proximity affects me Akash and I....I don't know what to say. If you watch me when I am working, it will make me shy. Your gaze make me nervous. I don't want any distraction in my work. So that's the reason I don't want work in this cabin" I said to him clearing his doubts.

Then suddenly, Akash freed my hand and turned around but I kept my face down. I don't want to see his cry face. It pains me a lot.

"Angel, look at me." I nodded 'NO'

"Please" he said and I cursed myself for giving in so easily. I slowly looked at him. He smirked at me.

Wait! What? Why is he smirking at me?

"So, my gaze make you weak huh?" he smirked, completely ignoring the fact that I said I wanted a new cabin.

Suddenly, Akash pressed a button and the curtains fell all over the glass. A wooden door at the entrance also locked automatically. I frowned my eyebrow looking around. Akash smirked and walked to me without loosing eye contact. I stared at him with confusion. I instantly took a step back but was all in vain when Akash clutched my wrist, spun me and pinned me against his desk. He leaned over me while my back was pressing over the desk. Akash held me by my waist and slid his hand on my back so that the glass doesn't hurt my waist. He pulled me more close to him by me waist.

OMG! What he is up to?

"So, you think this will happen if we work in together?" he asked huskily leaning near my face.

First I nodded my head in 'YES' then, I realized what I did and immediately nodded my head in 'NO'. Akash chuckled at my act and he realised me.

"You are right Angel. If we stay together, we will get distracted. So I arrange for a new cabin" he called his PA Aman and within an hour, a new cabin is ready for me.

We entered my cabin. Its looking​ very elegant with black and white combination.

"You like it angel?" Akash asked me.

"I love it Akash" I told him. He took my hand and made me sit on the chair. A shiver ran down my spine when I sat on the chair.

Never in my life I thought that I will work in such a big company. I always dreamt of working in big company and making my parents proud. I loved to study but my tauji stopped me from studying further because he thought if I get a degree, I will stand on my own feet, independently. So he let me study till twelfth only. First, few months its very difficult for me without studying but day by day I too lost interest in studies. So I never imagined to work in such a big company.

This is one of my childhood dreams and today one of my dreams came true. Happy tears are forming in my eyes.

This is all because of my husband.

"Shhh angel, don't cry. I know this tears are due to happiness but I don't want you cry for happiness, because from now you will be very happy everyday. And I will make sure of it ,so I don't want you to cry daily" he said wiping my tears and I chuckled at his words.

"All the best Angel. Now start work, don't be afraid. If you want any help in the project, just call me through this intercom, ok? And if you miss seeing me, you can come to my cabin at anytime. It's just next to yours and I am always available at your service" he winked at me. I blushed at his words.

"Oh my innocent Angel!" he pecked my lips and left the cabin laughing.

God ! Please save me from his teasing.

Ok Dharani, let's start work now. I started working for designs.
