Chereads / The Eternal Nexus / Chapter 25 - Chapter 25 : "... I love you.... "

Chapter 25 - Chapter 25 : "... I love you.... "

Bittu was taken aback by her response, he shook his head and sighed and waited for her to really get up before saying anything further.

He had to stay there for more than an hour before she really woke up but, she continued to stay in his embrace this time looking at him intensely.

Bittu didn't look at her at all, he had this weird feeling that if he looks in her eye right now, he wouldn't be able to control himself which he had done for the whole night.

Elena, seeing Bittu not daring to look at her, currently had a victorious smile.

She then finally decided to let him go and got off the bed. She rushed into the washroom, closed the door and stood behind it. Her heart was currently racing and her face had a deep blush. She looked alluring.

If Bittu had really looked at ther right now he would have been enchanted by her and really couldn't have stopped himself.

His perception really saved him this time.

Bittu immediately got off the bed seeing that she has left, he moved out of the room, towards the door leading outside.

Elena took a peek to see what he was doing after she left, only to see that he was going out of the room, towards the door leading outside.

Elena was confused as to why he would go there so, she got out of the washroom and headed towards the door following Bittu.

She saw that Bittu was currently wearing his shoes. Elena asked in confusion," Where are you going so early in the morning?"

Bittu without looking at her said, " To find a place to stay. "

Elena suprised immediately stood at the doorway and said quickly, " Why.... You can stay here. Moreover, I wouldn't even ask you for rent. I will even cook food for you."

"... Umm, Yesterday, I said I will only stay here for a day. So, of course I need to keep my word"

"And I don't think it's a good idea for a man and a woman to stay together. Especially, when they are strangers." He added looking at her in the eye near the end of his sentence as he wore his shoes.

He then, stood up and asked her to give him way out of the place.

Elena who didn't know what she should say to keep him in the house was panicked, she said whatever came yo her mind, " Is this because I asked for a cuddle? If it's really, then don't go, I can take back my request. You don't have to cuddle me anymore. "

Bittu, who has gotten answers to his question didn't want to make his conscience guiltier and his heart heavy, was determined to not stay at a girl's place anymore.

He asked her one more time, " Let me out. " But Elena was currently in her own world, thinking what she should for in this situation.

Bittu wasn't someone to ask someone, something a third time so, he caught her hand and moved her out of his way on his own.

Elena was shocked when she was pushed aside from the door. In her view, Bittu was currently going, not just out of her room but also from her life.

Her face for the first time showed a strong desperation when she watched Bittu move out of the room.

In this critical crossway of choices, Elena's body moved on its own before her mind could and she ran towards Bittu and hugged him from behind.

She hugged him as tight as she could so that he wouldn't leave her and go away. So, that he could feel what she believed she has already conveyed yesterday night.

Bittu was shocked when he felt the hug. But, he felt what she was trying to say thorough the hug but, he still asked her.

".... What are you....doing? "

".....Don't go...." she responded in a whisper.

"... What...?? ", asked Bittu, not hearing what she said.

"... Don't go... Don't leave me.... ", said Elena in a crying voice.

Bittu hearing her voice felt bad, he turned around and said, " First, let's get back into the room."

He wanted to move but she was holding onto his as tightly as she could refusing to leave him.

Bittu shook his head, he carried her inside the room while she was hugging him.

After closing the room, Bittu took her into the bedroom, Elena didn't say anything, she just hugged him like a koala.

" What are you trying to say? ", Bittu asked still planning to play dumb and get out of here.

"..." Elena didn't respond and continued to stay silent. She belived that she has already said what she needs to and her hugging him currently also shows what she means.

"... Elena... Say something, will you? asked Bittu as he looked at the girl clinging onto him.

Not getting a response he warned " If you don't tell me what you mean right this instance, I will leave."

Still not getting a responce, Bittu forcefully broke free from the hug, kept her on the bed and turned around.

Elena was trying to fight back and keep on clinging to him but she couldn't. She was angry by Bittu's way of handling her advances so she decided to do something she never thought she would so until this moment as she watched Bittu leave.

She used her energy reserves and forcefully stopped Bittu from moving. This was a fundamental character of this strange energy; to supress things(anything) that doesn't have it.

Bittu was shocked when his body suddenly stopped against his will. Once again, he didn't feel any kind of alert alarms from his perception, thus he couldn't respond to her at all.

Elena then turned him around and brought him closer towards her in a slow pace. Bittu tried to resist. He used his enhanced strength and constitution to forcefully get out of her control and it did have some effect.

Due to Elena's energy reserve being low and her spirit rank being at it's least, Bittu's resistance worked and the grip on him loosened.

Elena panicked seeing him gradually get out of her control.

She then hurriedly returned into her true form and focused all her energy on him.

The energy used on Bittu increased and Bittu was once again in Elena's grip.

Elena then slowly brought him close to her while Bittu continued his struggle.

When Bittu reached near Elena, he was panicking as to what he should do. He didn't even understand what was happening to him. He thought that she was using telekinesis on him. He struggled but in vein.

The moment he reached her, she did the most unexpected thing which Bittu didn't even consider an option.

She freed his mouth from her control and jumped on him. She then used her legs to clutch him while taking him in a hug. She then placed her mouth on his mouth and kissed him.

Bittu was shocked, baffled and confused by this turn of events that he opened his mouth to say something but, Elena used that opportunity to slide her tongue into his mouth.

She did this because she couldn't think of anything else in the current situation which would work in her favour.

She kissed Bittu as passionately as she could, she played with his tongue.

"... Mmmhhh.... "

Bittu who was already at his wits end due to her sleeping so close to him yesterday night, and being an adolescent young man in his prime, couldn't hold on any longer. Taking the Initiative from her, Bittu started to dominate the battle going in his mouth and pushed it in her mouth.

"....Aaahhhhhh.... "

Elena moaned when Bittu took control of the kiss while internally she was delighted and happy when he did that because her energy reserve was about to end in five second.

".....Mmmmhhhh..... "

She set Bittu free. Bittu who was currently kissing her deeply found his hands free. He used his hand to pin her on the bed while continuing to kiss her.

Her soft and delicate lips were like the most delicious thing Bittu has ever eaten. He can't get enough of it. He kissed for about three minutes.

"... Huuufff.... Huff.... Huffffff.... "

Both of them were taking deep breath after this intense and passionate kiss.

Bittu finally taking a look at her deep blushing and beautiful yet sexy and stunning face.

Currently, her dress was disheveled which made her look quite sexy. Moreover, her straight hair falling right on her ample chest was such a turn on. Including her, blushing and huffing face in the picture, any man in the world would not be able to stop himself right now.

"... Kiss me.... ", asked Elena with a seductive voice while looking at his eyes.

So, did Bittu. He leaned in for one more kiss.

He used one hand to pin her hands and brought them above her head, he then used his other hand to grab her neck gently while kissing her deeply.

He once again slid his tongue inside her mouth while kissing her passionately.

Elena was looking at Bittu with a loving and lustful gaze. She took kissed him back so, as to convey these feeling to him as deeply as possible so, that he would also gain similar feeling for her.

This continued for a minute before they seperated but once again kissed each other without giving time to breath. Both their eyes we're closed so as to focus on only their mouth and tongue.

As this moment Bittu was indulged in the kiss, his hand automatically moved from her neck to her boobs.

The moment his hands touched Elena's boobs, she felt a shock travel through her body and her body reacted on the basis of the memories in Elena's mind and she broke free from the kiss and said in a seductive voice,

".... I love you....."

Bittu who was indulged in the kiss with list filling him was jolted awake from it the moment he heard those words.

'... What... am I doing....?'

'Did I really.... Kiss her? '

' Did I really kiss a girl I don't even love? '

He was feeling guilty and angry at himself that he let himself get indulged in lust and kissed a woman who was practically a stranger to him. Moreover, he had kept his first kiss safe so as to share this special moment whit his lover; his wife but, that was now ruined.

Those where the words that were very important to him, as he would say it to only his lover; to his wife.

He has not said these words to any other woman, not even his mother but listening to it in the current situation when he was overtaken by lust kissing with a woman he didn't love, made Bittu's heart feel so heavy that he looked at her for a few seconds and left.

He didn't look back at all and left the place.

Elena who was on the bed, wating for Bittu to keep going with her eyes closed was getting impatient. She after a while opened her eyes, only to find that she was all alone in the room and Bittu was no where to be found.

She instantly came to her senses and her lust evaporated like water on heating.

".... So,...you left... ", she whispered to no one before she got into bed, put the blanket on top of her and started to silently cry. Her efforts were for nuts, because she couldn't stop him even when she kissed him.

Bittu after coming out of the hotel, came straight to a tree and started to hit it non stop.

"... Arrgh.... Argh..... Arreeggghhh...."

Bittu continued to hit it even when his hands were in pain and were bleeding. He was too angry at himself because of what happened.

"... How can I do something like that?..... Why?? Why??...", Bittu spoke with his clenched teeth. He was really very angry right now.

This continued for an hour before, Bittu calmed down. Currently, he was sitting beside the same tree looking at the sun while deep in thoughts.

He was thinking what he should do now. Now that it has come to this and he has done such things to her. Bittu decided to give her a chance to make him fall him in love with her.

" Since, she loves me, I might as well try to fall into it."

***********

As Bittu grappled with his decision, reflections on his past inundated his thoughts.

Throughout his life, Bittu had never experienced genuine love, neither from his family nor his friends. A pervasive sense of loneliness haunted him. Despite relentless efforts to secure affection from his parents, siblings, and friends, he found their expressions of love hollow and incomplete, lacking the depth he yearned for.

The bonds, whether familial or friendly, felt insincere—like fragments of a connection that failed to fulfill his emotional needs. Disheartened and dissatisfied, Bittu chose to detach himself from these relationships, seeking solace within and determined to forge his own happiness.

In his pursuit of personal fulfillment, Bittu immersed himself in various pursuits. He explored the world of music, honed his skills in playing instruments, acquired self-defense techniques, and delved into the intricacies of farm work. Each endeavor became a means for him to find purpose and joy.

As time progressed, Bittu discovered the potential for profound love in a different kind of relationship—marriage. Realizing that a life partner could provide the love he had longed for, he made a steadfast decision. He resolved to reserve his love for one woman, someone with whom he could share and receive the deep, meaningful affection that had eluded him throughout his life.

He even made sure that he would only come in contact with only the woman he loved so, he distances himself with all the other woman.

One would think that, how would he find the love of his life if he doesn't even talk to girls but Bittu knew it that his heart would alert him when the right woman would enter his life while it won't be instant but gradual. Bittu was determined to take it till the end.

But,

What happened just now left a bitter taste in his mouth, so he decided to give it a try. Maybe she was the one he was looking for all this while.

"Sigh.... ", Bittu sighed loudly as he stood up and go to the old man, Elena had introduced him to.
