A M A I R A 'S - P O V
I was in a cafe waiting for someone who would be very resourceful to me in dealing with that arrogant but handsome CEO when my phone buzzed and the name popped up on the screen was, "Mrs. Rajput"
"Ji, tell me the good news," I said, picking up the call.
But no one said anything from that side. After five seconds passed, "Hello Mrs. Rajput, are you there? " I asked.
"Sorry, he didn't agree" she said in a disappointed tone.
Hahh! I smirked. Attitude!! Okay, so he is not that EASY target I had imagined. But this game is getting interesting. I like him, I really like him for this attitude. Finally, I got someone who can compete with Amaira Oberoy.
She included that he has a girlfriend.
I thinned my eyes at the statement. Not because this is a kind of surprise for me, but why didn't I get to know this piece of shit before?
Okay, he is a billionaire, of course. He would have his prostitute to warm up his bed. I definitely don't have any problem with that. But why the fuck I didn't know about this before?
"So what? Everyone have mistress" I replied casually.
"She was not looking like a mistress kind of by the behavior of Kartik. He was too much into that orphan." She said, annoyed.
Into her? He should be into no one but Amaira, just Amaira Oberoy...
And my eyes filled with rage. And I stood up from the chair in anger. But one second, what does she mean, orphan?
"Is she an orphan?" I asked her, trying to calm the rage flowing through my body.
"Yeah and just in college I guess," she replied.
So this is the girl he kept before me, before Amaira Oberoy? An orphan who just entered into college. And I smiled. A college going is the choice of Kartik Singh Rajput, CEO of a multinational company instead of Amaira Oberoy, bloody CEO of Oberoy Pvt. Ltd. You disappointed me, Kartik. You disappointed me this time. At least keep someone of my level to compete with me!! HELL!
This is the TYPE he was referring to. She is the girl he considers being on his level. This is the FUCKING GIRL because of whom he got the audacity to reject me? Damnnn!!! And I threw the jar on the table with a force that it shattered into pieces.
The server came running towards me but my body guards kept him away, telling him who I am.
"Hello Amaira? " Mrs. Rajput said from the other side of the phone.
"Forget about your money then," I said in a calm yet deadly voice.
"But... But listen, we'll try to make him agree," she replied in a pleading tone, her voice quivering with desperation.
My foot, you'll try. I ruffled my hair to calm down and replied,
"Okay, I'll give 2 million instead of 1 million if he'll agree. I don't fucking care if he wants to keep that orphan with her, BUT I WANT HIM AT ANY COST"
"Ohhokk we'll try our best" She replied in frightened tone with touch of greediness in it.
"You better to" I said and hanged up the call.
I settled on the other table and chugged down the glass of water. I took a long breath and
the person I was waiting for finally came into view.
"So-Sorry mam, I was stuck in...." She came rushing and bowed her head in front of me.
I am not in the mood for any bullshit now, so I just motioned for her to shut the fuck up and take a seat.
"So, I think my manager already told you why I called you right. "
I asked her in an obvious tone.
"Yes... Yes mam" she replied
"But why you want to...."
"You are not supposed to question me mind that just do what I said you to," I replied in a voice clearly showing that it's not the right time to mess up with me.
"But mam, if sir got to know, he'll kill me and my family," she said, scared.
I took a deep breath and replied leaning towards her, "Listen... If you'll not do what I said, then I don't know about your SIR, but I'll definitely kill you that too in A brutal way."
She looked at me with a frightened expression, almost at the verge of crying.
I moved back and added,
"But, if you'll get successful, I'll give you as much money that you never even have imagined of in your fantasies"
I looked at my manager standing behind who was already standing with a bag full of money and he opened it before her and kept it on the table between us.
"Take it, this all is yours and it's just some percent of the money that I am offering you," I said her and she looked at the suitcase of money with greedy eyes.
Money can do anything. No matter how difficult the work is. And I smirked when she grabbed that suitcase. All we need is to throw the bait, and Boom!! Rat is trapped!!
Kartik Singh Rajput! You don't know who I am! Now you are going to regret your whole life for rejecting me. And I laughed at the thought like a psycho.
She went back to her work, which is actually my work from now.
And my phone buzzed again and this time it is of that bastard who failed badly in his work. This motherfucker had only one task assigned to him and he didn't even complete it.
I picked up the call, "Mam, Kartik sir is spotted with a girl outside a mall" He said excited
"Ohho really, so your buttons started working?" I asked in a frightening voice.
"Mam.... I...?" He started blabbering.
"What mam? You bastard.. For what purpose I am paying you this much money when this information, which you were supposed to give me is coming from others????" I said, hitting the table hardly with my palm.
"Am... Am sorry mam" He replied in almost inaudible tone.
"What sorry? Am I a joke to you?? What were you doing, hm? Whole 24 hours have passed and you are telling me about that girl like now? And that too 'Kartik sir is spotted with girl' kya karu is informatiom ka achar daalu??" I said, mocking him in anger.
"I... I... " He started speaking something, but I cut in between.
"Now listen to me. It's your last chance. Leave Kartik, be after that whore and I want her EVERY FUCKING DETAIL just EVERY FUCKING DETAIL" I said in a tone vibrating with anger and he said "Ok mam" In trembling voice.
I threw my phone in rage and massaged my temple, as my head would burst out in no time in between these USELESS IDIOTS!!! and all the bodyguards and manager were looking at me like a statue.
I am telling you a murder is written on my hands today.
From the moment I left from Rajput Empire, Pvt. Ltd. After that Humilation from that bastard, I had left all the work and my prime priority from that very moment was destroying him to the limit that he himself come begging to me for help and He himself would accept that bloody marriage proposal!!
I want to see him begging on his knees. And ruddy hell, I can't wait to see that moment!!
The whole of 24 hours have passed, and I literally had tried every way!! The Hell...!! I have kept spy on him....!! I have tried to buy his investors!! I have tried to buy his parents..!! I am getting information about his every move....!! What I haven't tried???
But still..... Haven't even achieved a percent of success...!! But Amaira Oberoy has never witnessed DAMN FAILURE!!
He doesn't know I am crazy and for that, If I have to kill someone I'll not think twice. I WANT HIS WEALTH... HIS REPUTATION... HIS IMAGE... HIS EVERY FUCKING HERITAGE.
And trust me, just a day has passed and I am enjoying this game...!! I am really enjoying because easy targets sucks me....!!! Let's see how strong their love is. Let's see how strong that orphan is. Let's see how far Kartik can go for her so called standard wali ladki!
And I gave a sinful smile. I stood up from there and walked towards my car.
I drive it by myself while others were following me from their cars.

S H I V I - P O V
I was with Kartik, in his car driving to mall. He remembered that I have fresher's party tomorrow in spite of having this busy schedule.....
Infact he remember every bit of thing that is related to me. He is so caring when he is with me. He never even had raised his voice when he is around me, okay I agree he scolds me often over little things but that too come out of care and Protectivness he have towards me.
But, today what I had witnessed is really hard to digest. I last time have seen this dark eyes of him filled with rage, when boys at college bullied me and after that, today with his parents.
I know he is not at good terms with his parents but krishna ji, they were talking too sweetly with him.
His mother, I mean his step mother too was trying hard to show her love and care towards him. And all the mothers have heart filled of motherly emotions no matter if she is real one or step. And what wrong they said hmm? Ofcourse parents would want their children to have the brightest future with a successful partner.
I looked down disappointed. Because am not the one they wanted. But still Kartik should not talk to them in that way. I don't want to show that I am annoyed or angry with him because of his parents proposing for marriage that's why I just let that topic go.
And marriage is other thing, it's his choice completely but my heart still says that Kartik should not behave that way with his parents.
After all they came all way here just for his son. Just because they don't want their son to face loss in his business. And here, Kartik misbehaved with them. I don't have parents, I can feel how bad a person feels when they don't have their parents hand above them.
I know he too haven't felt that love may be because of chaos and storm in his heart? May be because of his misunderstanding he never gave them a chance. May be because he raised the bars in his heart too high that it became difficult for his parents to break them?
I looked at Kartik who was driving the car, with lots of emotions in my eyes. I am feeling bad for both, Kartik and his parents. They both have not felt love just because of some misunderstandings. Kartik had to stay away from his parents' love and his parents from their son's love. How much burden he must have on his heart.
And I leaned towards Kartik and I hugged his arm tightly. Don't worry Kartik, I will give you all of my love. I know, you have experienced even more than me. But still, I'll try my best to give you all the love in this universe and will try to swipe away all the burden you have on your heart for so long.
I can feel tears gathering in my eyes but I wiped them off before Kartik noticed them.
I felt a soft peck on my head from him and I snuggled into him.
I gathered courage and slowly called him, "Kartik.. "
He hummed.
"Can I say something, if you'll not get angry? " I asked him with hesitation while slightly raising my head to look at him.
He looked back at me thinning his eyes. "And since when I got angry on you sweeta?? " He asked
I blinked at his statement. Like he is not the one who always be like 'Shivi Don't do this'
'Shivi don't do that'
'Shivi I want your plate all empty'
'Shivi aese shivi waise'
And he again looked at me in confusion when I didn't reply.
I shaked those thoughts off and sat back to my seat saying,
"Noo no never, you never get angry on me. Woh toh bass kabhi kabhi I hallucinates rest you never get angry"
He looked at me for a while and chuckled. "That is not what we call GETTING ANGRY my kiddo, you hadn't seen my rage yet"
He said the last statement with a smirk which runs sudden wave in my body. If this is not getting angry. Then what would happen if he'll get someday? I would definitely get Cardiac arrest.
"Don't worry baby girl, that day would never come" He said looking at my scared expressions, while touching my nose gently with a smile.
"Now say what you wanna ask" He asked me while looking straight at road.
Oh yeah! I almost forgot. What I wanna ask?? Umm... Hmm!!
"Kartik.. I wanted to say that.. " I again tried to say taking a deep breath.
"Hmmm" He hummed softly while changing the gear and I almost fell in front but he kept his arm in front of me blocking me so that I don't hit my head with car, although I had my seat belt but still.
Then he scanned me from head to toes confirming I am fine without a scratch or anything. Ufff!! If he behaves this way I'll keep on forgetting what I want to ask!! I just looked at him without blinking, capturing his every move. He is... He is.... Just so fine!! Should I say and spoil his mood? No Shivi How can you!! But....
"Say bachaaa... What you want to ask" He asked again.
"Umm... I... Umm.. Nah nothing" I replied and starting looking down at my hands.
He suddenly parked the car and I looked around only to find a big mall. Wow!! How big it is. I had never went inside anything so big. I looked at it like an excited kid who is taken to amusement park for the first time. I am so fascinated by looking at it from outside how big and beautiful it would be from inside!
I was admiring the mall when Kartik placed his finger underneath my chin and moved my head into his direction.
"Kiddo, this mall is all yours to explore today. Tell me if you want me to buy all of this so that you can look at it until you are done and then I'll buy you a new one."
" But first, tell me what was bothering you hmm" He asked me looking at my eyes trying to find something in there.
"I... Woh... Kartik.... I want to ask.... I mean I want to say" I started blabbering and I gulped when his fingers feather touched my lower jaw.
How he suppose me to talk in this position? What should I do now say him or just blush or hide my face into him out of embarrassment.
"Say sweeta" He said in his deep voice and I am done. I am literally done. I quit this game.
"Kartik.... How can I ask or say anything in this position? " I asked folding my hands while pouting.
His eyes met mine for a second and then he looked down and chuckled again.
"You know what kiddo? " He asked
"What? " I asked looking at him.
He held the back of my head and pulled me into a kiss. His lips rubbed against mine and then he whispered slowly near my lips, "I love you"
I can feel my irregular breathing because of this sudded move. No matter how many time he have did this but everytime it results into pacing my heart beat. My poor heart is still not used to this.
He moved back and pecked my forehead. "Now come on be a good girl and tell me fast. Then we'll go and buy beautiful and colourful things for you" He said cooing me.
Do I have to speak up now? Kartik is not going to leave this topic anyway. Why did I put this topic at the first place!! Ahhh Stupid Shivi!
"I just wanted to say that.. Yeah... Your.. Your parents.... I felt really nice meeting them today" I finally said haaah!! And sighed.
His expression suddenly changed and he gave me a soft smile. He cupped my face and again pecked my forehead.
"Only because you are nice baby"
"No Kartik, didn't you see how kindly your mother... I mean I mean that lady was talking to you" I said him and he leaned back and ruffled his hair may be he is trying to calm himself. Shit! Shit! Shivi.... You don't know when and where you have to say something...!!
"Shivi... My baby see people around here are not so kind and sweet you think they are. They have their hidden personalities and double standards like snakes. They just act... Okay they just ACT SWEET so that they could catch their prey!! "
He replied like a teacher giving lessons to his student.
But his last statement made me giggle "Kartik... Ab aese bhi nahi hota hai... People are not this bad we think they are....
Everyone have a soft side"
He sighed looking at me. I realized it was a very wrong timing to say this. And he is not at all in the mood of joking. So I suppressed my smile and started looking down. I slowly murmerred, "okay sorry"
He hit on my head slightly with his finger and replied, "Silly" And chuckled. Which made me gasp and I pouted.
"Ab chalo, shopping nahi karni hai?? " He said unbuckling my seat belt.
Oh yeahhh!!! I forgot.
"Karni hai karni hai" I replied excitedly and stepped down the car waiting for him to come to my side.
