Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

302 Making her fall in love again - 3

Her pace halted after hearing his blatant proclamation of love.

She turned back to look at him and seeing her turning towards him, he said it again.

"I love you Akira. I always have."

Those were the words which her ears had been dying to hear since God knows when.

She felt like her entire body was reverberating just hearing those words. She wanted to cave in. She wanted to hug him tight and wither in his embrace. She wanted to say I love you back, but the anger within her didn't let her reciprocate to him.

Taking a deep breath she said,

"But I hate you right now. From the bottom of my heart", saying that she placed her palm on her chest.

But suddenly there was a mildly painful sting that she felt on her chest as she placed her hand.

All confused, she took a small peek at her chest by slightly lifting the flap of her bathrobe.

A HICKEY !!!

Seeing that mark, there was utter confusion on her face. That totally looked like a hickey, but she couldn't say that for sure as she was drunk and thought that there was a possible chance that she might have hit herself somewhere with something.

She looked at him all perplexed and he couldn't stop smiling at her. He knew that she had seen his bite mark and he was loving the way she was reacting.

She was always so cute with her naive reactions.

"What happened? Someone was going to do real work", he jeered and folded his arms in front of his chest.

"She will, but after getting some more answers to her questions", then narrowing her eyes she asked,

"Was it you, who brought me into the room yesterday night?"

Taking a deep breath he said,

"Yes".

"Umm... did you undress me?"

He furrowed his eyebrows and said,

"Yes"

He was somehow not liking where the questions were going.

"Did you try to... um... "

"Seriously Akira? Do you think I will try to take advantage of you when you were tipsy? If you are not aware then NECROPHILIA is not my thing".

She tugged the belt of her robe tight and continued to stare at him, unable to understand what laid underneath his poker straight face.

"Even in such a situation, you are thinking of playing with your words Raymond?"

"Like seriously!!! You have become a changed man. Biting drunken women, taking advantage of them, fetching coffee for women and trying to impress them. What have you become?"

He smiled as he heard her speak.

He rampant jealousy filled blabber somehow excited him, made him feel happy.

He got up from the bed and walked up close to her and said,

"You know what, I had never seen this jealous side of you. It's cute and to be honest I kinda like it".

She gave him a death stare to him and said,

"You carry on with your charades, I am totally not jealous of anyone or anything. You go ahead and roam with whosoever you want to. That's none of my concern now. I know the real reason why you didn't want to come back to me now. It was really nice knowing you and I hope our paths don't cross again".

Saying that she turned to leave, but tugging on to the belt of her bathrobe, he pulled her back close. So close that there was not even an inch of gap between them.

"That lady, whom you saw at the airport, she is my doctor".

Wriggling in the encasing of his arms around her waist she said,

"Isn't she a bit too young and pretty to be your doctor? And why on earth would you tag along with her for her medical conference? You said you are my shadow, then what were you doing running behind her?"

He pulled both her arms, behind her back and held them with his hand and said,

"I came here not to be with her, but to be with the person, whose shadow I am".

"You liar".

"She is really my doctor and what's up with you. Can't a pretty girl be a doctor?"

"So you think she is pretty !!! Huh !!!"

Now her words were getting on to his nerves.

He gripped her tighter and moved his lips close to her and said,

"Remember one thing Akira, my hands, they only want to hold you. My lips, they only want to kiss you. My heart just knows how to beat for you and only you. Hope you remember that", he said with his lips grazing over hers, touching her every now and then.

But she pushed him away as soon as he was done speaking and said,

"Then did you or did you not bite me right here?"

Saying that she pulled her robe to one side, baring the naked skin of her chest with that hickey on it.

"I did", he said taking a deep breath.

"If you would have really loved me then you wouldn't have stopped with just one bite", saying that she flung his door open and marched out.
