C3 Chapter-2 Pregnant?

Meera Deshmukh POV

Next day I woke up, only see all my belongings are already packed. My idiot bestie is looking at me with smile.

"Eyes off mister," I said fake glaring at him. He snapped out of his dream land and gave me annoying smirk which made me irritate.

"What?" I asked looking myself in mirror that is there something on my face. But, no everything looks good to me.

Why was he looking at me look like that?

"What did that boyfriend of yours, saw in you? Did he came from hell like you?" He asked keeping a finger on his chin gave me mischievous look.

"What do you mean?" I asked glaring at him.

"You look like nothing but a sleeping devil to me," He smirked making me angry.

"Shut up. He has very good taste," I said clenching my teeth in annoyance.

"Oh really? Then why did he abandoned you?" He asked looking at me straight. Without thinking I blurted those words.

"Because I am an orphan," I closed my eyes feeling stupid on myself disclosing out the truth.

"What the fuck?" He asked menacingly making me scared.

This guy scares me with his anger management, same like him.

"Arhaan language," I scolded him.

He gave look like I gave a damn to my foul words.

“Come again," He sneered.

"Yes, He abandoned me because I am an orphan," I replied closing my eyes in fear.

God this guy is crazy.

"How dare he? That Bastard, Moron, Jerk. Didn't he knew that? When he was fake loving you and even when he was sleeping with you? And His main purpose is to sleep with you and he did it. And gave a lamest excuse to break up. He clearly gave me a reason to hate him. I will kill that son of bitch. When he comes in front of me.," God he doesn't have any filter to his mouth.

"Stop cursing him, Aru please give some control to your mouth. I didn't knew about his motive. I was in my own dream land idiot, I didn't see all these things and I Never felt his love was fake. I have seen his true love for me Aru. Now I think it's all my imagination. He never loved me. But I don't know why he gave me this lame excuse?" I am also confused like this.

On the day I clearly remember I was the one who started fighting with him, make aware of our relationship to his family. He just asked me some time and later in fear I asked will they accept orphan like me and suddenly he got up and started screaming at me. It's because I am orphan they won't agree and we should break up.

Like what the hell.

“Let’s Break up. I don't want to be with an orphan like you. I want to marry a girl who matches my status and my family. I don't want you. Good bye." He just abandoned me like that.

I cried on that day for being so stupid and trusting on wrong guy. I did cry not because break up but giving so much importance to him.

"Oh Madam Queen, Still you are supporting that bastard. I don't know why you're so naive. That's why he played with you so creatively," He said smacking on my forehead making me hiss.

"Leave about that jerk, go and get ready. We're getting late for our flight. Meanwhile, I’ll prepare breakfast for us," He said pushing me inside washroom, thrown towel on my direction, which I caught perfectly.

This guy here makes best food. He can become master chef.

Second reason to love him more. I never knew Indian men can cook. No offence because I never saw men cooking in my house but they do help their partners.

Brushing my teeth, I took warm shower, which made my muscles so calm and painless.

Month of December is always freezing and not to forget so warm under the blanket. By the way I forgot to tell you we are New York based graduates. And his home town is Mumbai as well as mine.

Wiping my body, I wrapped a bathrobe around me. Moving to wardrobe, took my dress. Slipping myself in this cozy comfortable dress made me smile. This pregnancy made my face glow and cheeks look so bubbly. I was never fond of makeup. I just applied some talcum powder. Brushing my hair, I tied my hair into pony tail.

Picking out my remaining dresses, inners, stuffed in another bag. Patting myself, I glanced around my whole room to see everything, and I remembered I am going to miss everything. A tear slipped out of my eyes. I started my life here, and going to leave everything made feel miserable. This place became my life. I don't know when tears started slipping out of my eyes and I don't even remember when he came, hugged me. His hugs always makes me comfortable, safe and calm like a father taking care of his daughter.

Arhaan used to accompany me to doctor's appointment. I was nervous when we first time gone to hospital. I was literally shaking inside but he was there holding my hand making me calm. When I first heard the heartbeat of my baby, tears automatically escaped from my eyes. I sobbed looking at the monitor screen. Not only have me he was also having torn like me, in his eyes. My heart melt looking at his face. This guy is truly a gem. Who does this just for best friend? This guy is setting an example. I wonder why doesn't he has girlfriend still. Anyone who looks at us can have misconception. Hope he finds a best girl for him.

Everyone thinks he's older than me but truth to say I am year older to him. He sometimes cries, that I should have been younger to him. He is so immature kid sometimes.

My baby best friend. We were from same University but different streams. I was a senior to him. We became friends through library. We have same fantasy in reading books. From there’s not full stop. We became flat mates, then best friends.

"It's okay Meeru, Everything will be fine," He said rubbing my back which made me come out of my world.

"Come lets, Eat. My little man is hungry," He said patting my belly.

"You love this baby so much right,” I asked looking at his face to see a beautiful smile spread on his face.

"How can I not love my stupid best friend's baby? I love him. I am going to spoil him so much. You know I always thought I can make you forever my family member," He said making me startled.

"What?" I asked coming out of this shock.

"Yes, I forever wanted you as my mother, bestie, guide, problem solver, and last but not least. I wanted you as my brother's bride," His replied made me shock.

What the hell?

He wanted me as his brother's bride.

He wanted me as his sister in law.

"Have you gone mad?" I asked frowning at him.

"Not at all. I have always wanted you as my brother's bride. You both look match made heaven. You both are neatness freaks and you both cook well. Closing my eyes, I can say you both are perfect to each other. I never knew my timing will be so late, that someone has already made move on you. I regret not asking you before," He said sadly making me bewildered.

This guy is so secretive than me.

He's gone nuts.

"Me and your brother," I asked unsure about his dream. He nodded his making me guilty. I never knew he wanted me as his sister in law.

I am sorry Aru.

It's never going to happen.

"Don't think about this so hard. It's just your wish, and your brother is never going to agree for this dream arrangement, you have made for our relation. You do know what fuss he created, when he arrived for the first time. He already dislikes me. And I can definitely say I will be not in his good books. And it will never happen. You'll get very good sister in law. I am damn sure about this." I said hugging him tightly.

Aww he is so cute.

I just pulled his cheeks making him groan.

"Stop pulling my cheeks. You stupid," He said swatting my hands away. Making me giggle.

"Come on now, Eat your breakfast and we will leave for airport," He pushed a delicious looking plate in my lap. Plating looks so beautiful. Yummy.

I gulped the whole plate in three minutes making him laugh.

"Easy there Mumma tiger, I have made so much food for both of us. I am so happy. Finally, I am taking my best friend to my house. You'll be happy there stupid. That's my promise to you," He said clutching my hands in his making me feel so happy.

I am forever debt to you Arhaan.

You're ray of hope in my darkness.

You'll be the one who'll lead to my destiny. I don't know why I feel like this.

But this thought made me happy.

Thank you Arhaan.

I don't know what destiny stored for me but I am ready to face everything with my baby beside me.

After eating breakfast, checking everything, giving one last look to our apartment, we departed in taxi which lead to airport. Checking our luggage, we made through immigration terminal and moved to our flight. Sitting on our respective seats, I closed my eyes only feel so nervous.

After so many years, Going to my home country made feel so nostalgic.

One thought that lingered in my mind and heart.

What will happen? Will I survive with mentality of people? I am scared inside mostly of him.

Mr Armaan Joshi.

He's so scary. His scornful words still lingers in my heart. He called me names, which I'll never forget. But I love the way he cares for his family.

He's still a jerk to me.

Pushing those baseless thoughts away, meanwhile sleep consumed me.

India here we come......
