Are you a vampire?
Divya POV
***********
"Karthik" I whispered.
"Divya, what happened to you? Why are you crying?" He asked, looking at me with panic eyes. I burst out crying, seeing his care for me. I felt so dizzy. I leaned against his shoulder.
"My head hurts, Karthik" I told him. Karthik gave me a shocked expression.
"I'll take you home" He said and held my shoulder.
"No Karthik, I don't wanna go home. Please take me somewhere" I told him while crying. I don't want to go home because I don't want pari maa to see me like this.
"Okay, don't cry. I'm here for you. I don't like to see you cry, please don't cry" He wiped my tears. I was touched by his gentleness.
"Just one minute" Karthik said and took his mobile out from his pocket and send mail to office, that he's not going to attend office today.
"Come on, let's go from here" He told, and we walked out of the office.
We headed towards his car. I could feel someone's burning gaze from my behind, as I walked through the parking area to his car. I turned around to see if anyone was standing, but there was no one.
Karthik opened the front door of the car and told me to sit. I sat on his car. He started driving his car, and I don't know where. I closed my eyes, feeling tired suddenly. I didn't know when I'd fallen asleep, until someone shook me lightly.
"Wake up, Divya!" I slowly opened my eyes and looked around to see the car in front of someone's home.
"Are you just going to sit there and admire my home?" Karthik asked me.
"Your home?" I asked him.
"Yes, come on. Let's go inside" He smiled and gestured at me to come outside. I nodded and went inside his home.
He unlocked the door, "Welcome to my home" Karthik welcomed me warmly and took me inside his house. I went inside and gazed around to see a nice shade of baby blue paint and curtains matching the walls. He kept his home clean and neat. I'm impressed. It has a comfortable feel inside. It makes me feel warm and welcome.
"You must be very tired. I'll just make you lunch." He left, going into the kitchen. I sighed and sat down on the couch.
After 10 minutes, he came out of the kitchen and handed me a plate of noodles.
"Sorry, I don't know how to cook. I have only known to make noodles and pasta" He said, feeling embarrassed.
"At least you know how to cook noodles and pasta. I don't even know how to boil water. I mean I don't even know how to light a gas stove" I said, and we laughed.
We started eating the noodles. "It's taste delicious Karthik." I bunched.
"Your girlfriend will be so lucky to have a great guy like you" I said. He smiled.
"I'm the lucky one" He said. I was surprised.
"Karthik, do you like someone?" I asked him.
"I actually, yea...mm I have someone whom I like very much" He smiled at me.
"Wow! Who is the lucky girl may I ask?" I asked, excitedly.
"Divya, actually she doesn't know that I like her yet. And I too didn't tell her about my feelings" He said.
"Well, good luck to you. However, let her know about your feelings soon, don't be too late else someone may snatch her away from you" I said playfully.
"Don't worry about that. She will be mine, only mine." Karthik said looking straight in my eyes. His whole demeanor changed.
Suddenly, Daksh's face came into view. He is also very possessive about me.
Uff, I can't even forget that idiot!
"Are you a vampire?" I blurted out.
"What??" Karthik shouted, looking at me shocked.
"Because vampires are always possessive, jealous, and they always keep saying that their mate is mine, mine and only mine. You too acted in the same way just now, so are you a vampire?" I shrugged.
"Seriously? I'm not a vampire, trust me" He said with horrified eyes. I burst out laughing.
"Are you feeling better now?" Karthik asked me.
"Yeah, I am" I said.
After talking to him, I felt relief. It's like a load was lifted from me.
"Divya, I can see that you are stressed and weary. I promise you'll feel better if you share your problem with someone, and I'm here. So you can tell me, if you want to" He said.
"Please Karthik, I don't want to talk about it, at least not now. Please understand" I pleaded him. He nodded his head, in agreement, though his face reflected sadness.
One side Daksh - He's my childhood friend. He's my love but he always makes me cry.
Another side Karthik- We barely know each other, but he is understanding and caring unlike that idiot Daksh.
"Divya, once again I am so sorry for my awful behavior in the club" He said, looking down, ashamed.
"Karthik, let's forgive and forget the past" I said. He smiled at me.
We talked and having fun. In between he cracked some jokes and made me laugh.
"You know Divya, People say that Laughing is the best medicine. However, if you're laughing for no reason, you may need to get some medicine." He joked. I burst out laughing.
"Oh God! Karthik that's enough! My stomach is aching like hell" I told him while laughing. He smiled at me.
"Divya, please always smile like this" Karthik said with some unknown emotion flickering behind his gaze, but I can't put my finger on it.
We talked for some more hours until I get tired. I looked at my watch and shoot! It's 7:43.
Oh god! I totally forgot about Pari maa. I put my phone on silent mode. I found my cell phone and noticed that my cell phone had three missed calls from pari maa and one were from Anahita. But no calls from Daksh.
He didn't even try to call me?
What he must be doing now?
What if he is with Maya?
'Why do you care?' my brain mocked me.
'Because I love him' I sighed sadly and stood up from the couch.
"Ok Karthik, it's too late now. I have to go home now" I announced.
"Please stay for a while" He pleaded.
"Sorry Karthik, I'm already getting late. I will come some other time" I told him.
"Okay" karthik said disappointingly.
"Well at least let me drive you home" He said, walking to his car. I sat in his car, and he started driving. I told him my address. He stopped the car in front of the Pari maa's house. I got out of the car.
"Thanks Karthik, I had a great time! You make me smile like no one did, before" I told him genuinely.
"Hey is alrig-" He froze. I saw his eyes flickering behind me. I turned to following his gaze and immediately knew what he meant. He saw the name board plate of the house. It's written MEHRA HOUSE.
I was waving my hand in front of his face, "Hey Karthik, are you okay?" I asked shaking him lightly.
"I- I'm fine. It just- it's written Mehra house. Divya, this is your house? How do you know Akash sir?" He asked me confusingly.
"It's not my house. It's my aunt house, and I know Akash uncle because he is married to my aunt Dharani. My Dad went out of a country on a business trip, so I'm staying here for a week" I explained him.
''oh, okay'' he said and I saw a little anger appearing on his face.
'Angry? But why?' I asked myself.
Am I over thinking??
"Um, well bye Karthik. See you tomorrow at an office" I told him.
"Hmm ok. Bye, good night" He said and speeds off his car. I walked into a house. I saw Daksh car on the parking outside. So, he is in home.
I sighed and entered at the house. I saw pari maa sitting on a couch. Once she saw me entering, she stood up and came towards me worried.
"Doll, why didn't you pick up my calls? Why didn't you come to home early?" Pari maa asked me in a worried tone. I felt guilty.
"Pari maa, my mobile was in silent mode, and I went over to my friend's house. Sorry for getting you worried" I told her sadly. She sighed.
"Don't be sad. Daksh already informed me that he saw you leaving with your friend" Pari Maa said.
Oh God! Daksh saw me leaving with Karthik? Can I dig my own grave and burry myself over? He will definitely make a big scene of this.
"Come on doll, let me serve you dinner. We ate our dinner already" Pari maa said.
"Pari maa, I already had dinner at my friend" I lied. Because, all I need is my bed. I am hell tired mentally and physically.
"Oh ok, then go to sleep" Pari Maa said and planted a soft kiss on my forehead.
I walked to my bedroom. The room lights were off. Closing the door behind me, I walked to the washroom. I turned the bathroom light on and splash cold water on my face.
I already decided what I should do next. The very first thing is I have to find a way to solve our fight before Maya damages our love. I inhaled and exhaled deeply and came out of the washroom.
I switched on the light and gasped as I saw Daksh was sitting on the couch. His shirt button was open. I looked at him keenly, to see his jaw clenched and his fingers tightened into a fist, as if he was ready to beat someone.
My gaze feel on his torso and I gulped hardly. He has so many abs, I just want to run my hands all over his abs.
Ugh. Stop! What the hell am I thinking? I shook my head to clear my naughty thoughts.
"I'm glad. You finally found someone who will keep you entertained all the time. Well, Is he your new boyfriend?" He asked me angrily and looked at me directly in my eyes. I got angry.
"Don't you dare talk to me like this. For god's sake, Karthik is not my boyfriend but just a good friend" I yelled at him. He looked at me with anger on his face. He got up from the bed and walked over to me.
"He is good friend or..." he paused and leaned closer to my face "or he is a good partner in bed" He smirked.
I froze in my place hearing his accusation. I'm not angry, but I was more hurt hearing his words. I couldn't help but cry uncontrollably.
"You can't say that Daksh" I whispered as more tears fell down my cheeks. His hands moved in his hairs, to calm himself down.
"Daksh, just go from here. I don't want to talk to you" He immediately turned towards me.
"And I don't want you talking to him anymore, understand?" He ordered me to look at me eyes directly.
How dare he ordered me again? What am I? His slave?
"What the hell did I do? I did nothing wrong! You have no right to order to me like this! In fact, I should be angry because you're accusing me wrongly." I shouted.
"Accusing you wrongly? When you cried, walking out of the cabin, I felt bad. I followed and ran behind you, but guess what I saw? My girlfriend is hugging some other man in front of me" He told me, disgustingly.
Oh, he saw me. I leaned over Karthik because of dizziness.
He took a deep breath and wiped my tears, "Okay. I'm sorry. I'm very sorry for accusing you but sweetheart. I don't like that boy touching you. I can't see you in some other man's arms. Seeing you with someone else makes my blood boil" He said, looking in my eyes pleadingly.
I pushed his hand away from my face. "Oh really?? Then what about you? That Maya was flirting with you! And you're encouraging her" I glared at him.
"You are crazy. She was just trying to be nice. I think you are a hallucinating stuff. Because you probably seeing things that aren't really there" He snapped at me.
What? Hallucination??
"What the hell! You are making it sound as if I am a mental patient? You don't like when Karthik touches me or even when another man looks at me. Am I right?? I asked him. He is looking at me blankly.
"Same goes to me. I don't like it when Maya touch you" I told him honestly while his eyes widened.
"That's different" He told simply.
"Different? Why is it? You can talk to any girls you want, and I can't even talk to my guy friends?" I asked him to feel jealous.
"Are you jealous?" He asked me.
"I have every right to get jealous...." I paused and leaned close to his face. "Because, You are mine. No one can ever change that" I told him possessively.
He looked at me intensely, a slow smile spreading across his face "You know. You are f*****g s**y when you're jealous" he says huskily and captured my lips, kissing me hungrily. He then started to nibble on my bottom lip, asking for entrance, but I denied.
What the!
He can't kiss me after accusing my character. I can't even think of cheating him. I love him so much. How can he put such a false accusation on me? He will never understand my pain.
"Leave me, you idiot" I yelled and pushed him away from me. He stumbled on his own feet.
"What the hell?" He yelled back at me.
"Why are you playing with my feelings? One moment your sweet, saying 'I'm your life' and the next second your cold acting like 'I don't exist in the world" I looked straight in his eyes.
"DON'T TREAT ME LIKE A WHORE" I shouted at him.
"DIVYAAA" Daksh roared. I flinched back.
"Do you even know what are you saying? I never treated you like a whore. If you think that I treated you like a whore, then I'm so f****g sorry" He said with so much anger. The pain was clearly visible in his eyes.
"I know people say 'Love Hurts'. But I never knew loving you would feel like a heart attack" He whispered painfully. My heart broke into million pieces.
"Da—Daksh" I shuttered.
Suddenly, his face turned cold and his features hardened.
"YOU KNOW WHAT? ALL THE THING I DID WAS JUST TO BE WITH YOU. FROM THIS, MOMENT ONWARDS, I WILL NEVER TOUCH YOU" He said angrily and stormed out of the bedroom with a dark look on his face.
Oh god! What I've done?
I hurt him so badly. I really hate myself for hurting him. He will never forgive me. But I vowed to myself to win his love. I will earn his forgiveness. I will try to clear our misunderstanding at its earliest unless it will become a reason for the separation forever.
**************************************
Precap - "You know, why I asked you to apologize to Maya?" Daksh asked me. I nodded my head in 'No'.
How is it?
Is karthik good Or bad?
What do you think about Maya and Karthik?
Is Divya over reacting?
