Chapter 40: chapter 40

In Shaurya's bedroom, Vaishali took her clothes and went to the washroom to take a shower while Shaurya stood on the balcony attached to the room.He was thinking about whatever happened today. Firstly the insult and the humiliations Vaishali faced from his employees. Secondly the most drastic decision of his life is the marriage.He took a deep sigh and thought in his mindShaurya: What happened to me all of a sudden that I decided to marry her? Is vaishali really okay with this alliance or did she just accepted because of my pressure? Trust me Vaishali I don't want to trouble you in any way but even I don't don't what stuck inside my mind that I took this decision..I'm sorry...Suddenly he heard some sound coming from the room. He turned towards the back side and found Vaishali trying to find something in the cupboard where her cloths were kept.Shaurya: what are you looking for, Vaishali??Vaishali: Ohh...I was actually trying to find the hair dryer.Shaurya: Wait..lemme fine it for you.He came forward and stood beside her trying to find the dryer. Both of them were standing almost sticking to each other. Vaishali's breath got hitched watching him standing so close to her.Even Shaurya's condition was the same, the sweet smell of rose coming from Vaishali's hair and body was making him go crazy.Both of them looked at each other and for a moment got lost in each other's eyes. But suddenly Vaishali diverted her gaze this breaking his too.They continued searching for the stuff when Vaishali's gaze landed on it.Vaishali: Here it is..Shaurya too saw that and tried to bring that out but in the meantime even Vaishali tried to bring that out and due to that they accidentally touched each other's hands.A spark occurred in both of their bodies as soon as they touched each other while Shaurya apologised bringing his hand back Shaurya: I...I'm sorry...Vaishali: why are you being sorry sir? Infact thank you for helping me.Shaurya: It's okay..He moved away from there going inside the washroom. Vaishali kept looking towards her hand where he had touched her. A small smile came into her lips.After sometime, he came back changing his clothes. He saw Vaishali sitting there and her face expressed sudden kind of confusion as well as nervousness. He came to her and asked Shaurya: what happened? Why are you sitting like this?Vaishali: Nothing sir, I was just...Shaurya: I understood... don't worry you can sleep in the bed.Vaishali: But sir?Shaurya: Don't worry about me...I will sleep there on the couch.Vaishali: No sir, you don't have to do that...it's your room and the bed also belongs to you do you sleep here...I'll adjust on the couch.Saying this she got up from the bed and laid on the couch facing her back towards him.Shaurya just kept looking at her but then suddenly he remembered that she is pregnant and this couch will not give her the comfort and if by any chance she falls from there then what will happen.He came to her and without saying anything, he lifted her in his arms. Vaishali became shocked when she found him carrying her.Vaishali: Sir, what are you doing?Shaurya did not reply anything and gently placed her on the bed. He covered her with the blanket and said going towards the couch.Shaurya: When I said you will sleep here then that's final.He lied on the couch and pretended to sleep otherwise Vaishali will keep on asking questions. Watching him sleeping she felt it useless to argue so even she lied and after sometime both of them went into deep slumber.Next morning, in the office when Vaishali entered inside, she was gathered around by other office staff along with Mrs Joshi and her group.Mrs Joshi gave her a look which carried lot of hatred in it. She came near to Vaishali who made a disgusted expression towards Mrs Joshi.Mrs Joshi: Guys, look who is here..Vaishali: What is all this Mrs Joshi?Mrs Joshi: Aree...won't you tell them the good news....okay fine if you don't I will surely. So guys meet her she is Miss Vaishali the lover of our Shaurya Sir. And you know what guys she is also carrying an illegal child of sir's in her womb.Vaishali: What the hell are you saying Mrs Joshi? Are you out of your mind?Mrs Joshi: where did I speak wrong vaishali? Yesterday you were with sir and the way he was defending you it was totally clear that he is your child's father.Everyone present there became shocked and started blabbering as well as whispering among themselves.All of a sudden Shaurya came there and stood beside Vaishali who was silently crying after being publicly humiliated.He held her hand and giving a fierce look towards Mrs Joshi he said Shaurya: Mrs Joshi, how dare you talk to her like this? Do you know who she is? If you don't know then let me tell you she is my wife...my legally wedded wife.
