"What do you mean fooled me from the beginning?" Noah asked and his voice trembled."Hmm I made you think that I am worried about your protection but I"m with you just for money." She said and giggled. He stopped after hearing this. His world came crashing down. He made her sit on a bench nearby and left without saying a word. She smiled after he left.
"Bear this pain at least it better than the scar that will last and hurt forever." She said and leaned back. She wasn"t drunk at all but was pretending to be in front of him. It was her last move.
"I hate myself for pushing you away. You the person I love and trust the most but I"m also afraid cause I"ll be the one hurting you the most so it"s better to push you away and see you happy from a distance." She said and started tearing up. She put her face in her hands as she bent down.
"I wish I could tell you how much I love you. I wish I could just get away from all these problems of my life and just be with you forever. It doesn"t matter how we live but being with you will be my biggest happiness. But I can"t I have to kill all these dreams for you. I don"t want to drag you into my problems and put your life at risk. I"m sorry Noah ...I"m sorry." She said through her tears.
Little did she know that he was standing there beside her. He was actually hurt from her words but couldn"t leave her like this so he came back after taking just a few steps. And then he heard everything she said. He smiled after hearing the reason for her strange behavior.
"Idiot me for doubting you when n.o.body can love me more than you." He said watching her from a distance.
"But that doesn"t mean I"ll forgive you. You"ll have to confess with your own mouth. It"s my promise." He said and went up to her.
Holding her arm he pulled her above making her stand.
"Why are you doing this?" He asked looking onto her eyes. She immediately wiped her tears.
"What?" She asked shaking his hand off, starting to act again.
"Why are you lying that you hate me?" He asked.
"I"m not." She answered as if she didn"t know what he was talking about.
"Stop lying. I heard everything." He said and she flinched hearing this.
"What do you mean?" She asked hesitantly.
"Why are you doing this activity?" He asked in frustration.
"I don"t know what you"re saying?" She tried to avoid this by acting as if she didn"t know anything.
"Don"t pretend. I"m done with your acting," He shouted. "Tell me if you accepted this mission for money then wasn"t it better if I fall for you then why are you pushing me away? Answer me."
"Noah don"t create a scene." She said holding his arm.
"No Meera I want my answers today. Tell me will you be okay if I date someone else if I love someone else with all my heart." He asked looking into her eyes.
"Yup I don"t have any problem with that. Love someone else or do marry them I don"t care. Also what right do I have to not be okay with that." She said looking away.
"Say that again while looking into my eyes." He ordered turning her to him and forcing her to make eye contact.
"I..I..." She stuttered as tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Meera why are you doing this to yourself? Why are you torturing yourself this way?"
She tried to avoid him and turned around.
"No I want my answers today." He grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"Why are you doing this? Why do you push me away?" He asked gripping on to her shoulders tightly.
"Cause I love you d.a.m.n it...
