Dev Khurrana
I parked my car before her house. It was a decent two storey house enough for her to live with her family.
It was beautiful, though.But her family was richer than this.
Why this house?I looked at the passenger seat and saw her sleeping soundly.
I chuckled looking at her.Caressing her face, I moved away hair from her face.
She would never let me do this if she was awake.
There is definitely something on which I am missing out.
Something more to her running away from me.I'm going to dig into it!
But before that, I need to make sure she's not going anywhere.
And It can be done only in one way..!
She moved around a bit and then opened her eyes. I just smiled at her and she looked at me confused.
"Get up my sleeping beauty we've been parked before your house since 10 mins." I said chuckling and she just nodded sleepily.
I got out & opened her side of the door and gave her my hand to get out of the car.
She took my hand and got out."I'll drop you to the door." I said holding her hand.
"I'm not a kid. I can go by myself." She said rolling her eyes.
"Ofcourse you can, but I want to." I said and pulled her with me towards her house.
Stubborn woman..!
She took out keys from her bag.
"No one's home?" I asked and before she could answer someone opened the door.I looked at her confused.
Who is she?
"Di.. You're home." She said with a wide smile and then she looked at me.
The moment her eyes were on me she got shocked.I looked at Anushka with raised brows and she stood there nervous.
"Are you Dev Khurrana?" The young girl asked me.
"Yesss." I answered confused.
"Ohh my god! Please come in." She said and started jumping around.
We entered the house and I looked around it was very homely & warm. There were pictures hung on the wall which had only the two of them.
"Umm, I am her sister Lisa." She said introducing herself with a smile and I just returned her smile confused.
She never had a sister, before!
"Umm.. Lisa how about you get him a glass of water?" Anushka said to her.
"Sister? You've never had a sister. And where is your family?" I asked as Lisa was out of sight.
"She is my only family." She replied and I looked at her shocked.
"She is not a real sister. But she is the only reason I want to be a better person. My family does not want to do anything with me." She said with teary eyes.
"Anushka—I started but was interrupted by Lisa's voice.
"Here." She handed me a glass of water.
"Di..! Can you just take out the orange juice. I can't find it." Lisa said to her and she walked inside nodding.
"How did you know my name?" I asked her confused.
"Ohh I know everything about you. Your name is Dev Khurrana, you own your own law firm. You are very succesful and a very sweet person." She said grinning.
I just chuckled at her.
"And from where did you get this precious information about me?" I asked her smiling.She is full of life!
"From your wife." She whispered and I laughed.
A hearty one.!
After a long time..!"My wife? You know about us?" I asked still smiling.
"Yeah! She keeps talking about you. I'm really glad that I got to met you." She said with a smile.
So!
She does talk about me!I am not the only one."But how did you recognize that I am the Dev she talks about?" I asked.
"I've seen you in pictures. She has your wedding picture hung on her— Lisa was saying but Anushka interrupted her
"Lisa! Get in your room. There is no need of giving him unnecessary information." Anushka said glaring at Lisa.
Lisa just huffed and walked in.
"I'm sorry about her. She talks alot." Anushka said and I slipped my hand around her waist.
"Dev, what?" She asked with wide eyes.
"I thought I was the only one talking about my wife. But seems like even you are too fond of your husband." I whispered in her ear pulling her to me.
"You are not my husband." She said trying to pull away.
"The more you try to hide, the more I'll try to find you. The more you try to run, I'm going to pull you to me." I said with my lips still on her ear.
"And? What would you do by finding me? Doesn't matter If you find me or not. It is not going to change the fact that I am
not your wife." She said scowling."You know right? You've got married to me. And we need to get divorced for you to not be my wife." I asked smirking.
"I signed the divorce papers 2 years ago and left them for you on your bed." She said rolling her eyes.
"Our bed, sweetheart." I said flicking her nose.
"And I did not file those." I said pinching her nose tip with a victorious smile on my face.
"Why would you do that?" She asked smacking my chest.
"Ufff Ms. Tiny temper. I thought you were smarter than this. I did not want to lose you. Simple." I said still smiling and she kept struggling in my hold.
"Why are you only thinking about yourself? Why not think about me? I want divorce." She said firmly.
"I am not giving you divorce." I said shrugging.
"I hate you, Dev Khurrana." She said glaring at me.
"If you call this as hate then, I hate you too Anushka Khurrana." I said with my face too close to hers.
Touching my stubble on her cheek, I kissed below her earlobe.
"It's Anushka Tandon." She said stammering.
"Anushka Khurrana." I said looking at her with a huge smile.
"Stop smiling like that!" She said irritated.
"I can't help it." I said shrugging.
"God! Please help me." She muttered.
"Don't tell me you're stomach is not filled with butterflies right now because you're too close to me." I said rubbing my nose with hers.
I could see it in her eyes,
She was nervous!
She was always nervous when I came too
close to her.I could hear her heartbeat,
It was too fast!
It has always been this fast when I was around.
This is my cue, then!
She does feel what I do..!
Anushka TandonI got out from the cab before Dev's office.Why did she call me here out of all the places?I thought groaning.Today I had a meeting with Rhea & Karan which they wanted to have in Dev's office.I'll have to face him again!I can't get my head around the fact that he is still my husband.Asshole!Couldn't file the divorvce!As if you're not happy..!My conscience mocked.I looked at the building and suddenly remembered our old da
Dev KhurranaAnushka was showing various ideas she had for the engagement ceremony on her Ipad.I was busy oggling at her.What a masterpiece!The way she was talking confidently with a small smile on her face, the way she chuckled when Karan passed a comment on how Rhea's choice is not up to the mark, the way she frowned—I was brought out of my admiring session by Rhea as she passed the Ipad towards me"Tell me bhai, Is this not good? Karan thinks this is too much. He likes plain things and I don't. Now you choose."She said to me.And I just looked at her confused
Anushka TandonWe were sitting in my favourite restaurant and the moment I saw that Dev has bought us here there was a 400 watt smile on my face."Would you mind If I ask you something?"He asked hesitantly."And even if I mind, will you stop asking. I know you so just ask."I said taking a bite of my pizza.This is fucking amazing..!I moaned at it's taste and he laughed at it."Some habits don't die huh."He said between his laughs."You know you're just trying to hide your own old self. You're trying to hide your smile. You're trying to be someone
Dev KhurranaI was talking to a client of mine when my phone started ringing."Please give me a minute."I said with a smile to my client."Hello."I said answering karan's call."Are you done with your work?"He asked and I looked at my wrist watch."Yeah just winding up a meeting."I said to him." Great! Could you go to the engagement venue?"Karan asked and I could hear Rhea whispering something from behind.
Anushka TandonI rang the doorbell and Lisa was quick to open the door with a wide grin on her face."Thank god, you came. I was starving."She said pouting and then her eyes fell on Dev."Jiju is here."She beamed and we entered inside."Jiju?"I asked raising my brows at her and then closed the door."Yeah! He is your husband and you are my sister so he is my jiju."She said still grinning and I stood there embarrassed.God!I regret telling her about him!I heard Dev chuckling.
Dev KhurranaClicking my pen continously on the table I was trying to read the case file before me, but was unable to.Damn!What the fuck is wrong with me?"Good morning Mr. Cranky Khurrana."Karan asked entering my cabin."What do you want, Karan. I am in no mood for your bullshit!"I said groaning and getting back to my case file."Dude, what crawled up yours ass in the morning?"He asked sitting leisurely on the chair opposite to me."Why are you here?"I asked stressing each word. I was already very moody since morning and he
This chapter mentions of rape and related things. If not comfortable do not go ahead.Dev Khurrana"This meeting better be important."I said glaring at my assistant.Today is Karan & Rhea's engagement but my assistant called and said that there was some really important issue I needed to handle at the office and some client is here with a very important case."Sir, It is actually something very important."He said and I entered my cabin.A man was sitting on the chair and the the moment I entered he turned around.I stood there rooted on my spot.Kuna
Anushka TandonThe engagement was done without any isssues. I was just wrapping around when I heard Dev's voice."How much more time do you need?"He whined.All the guests have left but he wanted to stay back to drop me. Apparently it is too late for me to go home alone.These are just excuses..!"If you want you can leave. Don't whine like a kid."I said to him."Okay fine. I am standing here quitely, just wrap up quickly."He said.After 10 minutes or so I was done and I walked towards him while he was engrossed in his phone."Ohh Thank god,
