Chapter 124 - Vihaan's feelings

"Yes, ofcourse" seated on the chair of "Paradise" hotel, one of the top five-star hotel in Delhi, beside Rohit Khanna, his companies' new client, Vihaan spoke.

The chilled December was making a home in everyone's life, affecting their lifestyle and their dressing sense.

Affected by it, Vihaan too was wearing a black suit with a long grey coat and black shoes. Meanwhile, Rohit was wearing a blue winter suit with brown shoes.

But, his eyes were not on, Rohit, somewhat they were fixed far away from where he was seated, on a lovely, beautiful girl.

Vihaan had no idea what he was listening, or speaking, for he was burning in jealousy, for, the same girl wearing dark blue jeans with white turtle neck sweater, grey charcoal long coat and black ankle-length heel boots was none other than Shanaya Malhotra.

His mind spoke in disbelief when he noticed her lips, her always natural red lips painted with red lip colour" Can you believe it? Is she here to seduce him!?"

"Shut up! She will never need to seduce anyone." defending Shanaya as if accusing her of seducing someone else was not acceptable to him, Vihaan's heart jumped into the conversation. .

"What was the need for dressing up for him! She never thought of impressing me, and yet here she is, looking all pretty for him." debating angrily with his heart, Vihaan looked furiously at Shana.

"You are not her boyfriend, lover or husband that she will try to impress you. Get over with yourself, man" mocking at him, his mind spoke.

Smirking, he debated"Neither is he." and glared at the man.

"But he can be. He has the chance you don't have." he heard his mind and, knew he had no answer to it.

Unaware of his presence, away from him but only four tables away from him, sitting in the corner table, Shanaya's eyes were only on the man in front of her.

"That's impressive." complimenting the attractive man in twenties, Shana arched her brows, as if, she was really impressed by him.

She heard the man saying "Thank you", and she leaned forward while keeping her elbows on the table.

They had ordered the food a while before and were waiting for it to be served.

Shanaya looked at her date and noticed his features without making him feel she was staring at him. She noticed he had quite an attractive or, handsome face, was tall, well built but, still something was lacking.

He does not have a sharp nose like Vihaan, those intense full eyes, those broad and well-built shoulder. That body that would make her body tingle, churn in anticipation, dėsɨrė and nervousness, that voice that sounds melody to her ear and, that dominating aura.

He was not Vihaan Singh Rathore.

She stopped when she realized what she was doing and focused her attention on her date.

Thinking about Vihaan and dreaming about him was not going to help her.

Away from her, Vihaan kept on observing every little detail of her, like, when she leaned forward to speak in a low voice. When she roamed her fingers in her long hair or when she arched her brows as if she was impressed by something.

"No, no, no, she can't be impressed by him!" screamed his heart and his eyes started noticing the man, carefully, as if finding faults in him would ease him up or would change Shanaya's decision.

Caught up between watching Shanaya and listening to Rohit, with who he had been on the meeting, Vihaan heard Rohit saying something and, he spoke, "Yes, ofcourse."

For the last ten minutes, since he had been in the hotel, he had spoken none other words than "Yes, ofcourse."

For, the meeting was just an excuse to be in the same hotel Shanaya was.

To see who the man was who had dreamed of being her husband.

The mere thought of someone else taking that position was irking Vihaan and, he wanted to know what kind of a person he was.

"Stop lying, man. You want to see how more handsome, attractive, sėxy, hot and rich that man is, in comparison to you." he heard his mind speaking his heart.

It was the first time his mind and heart was working together.

Seated beside him, Rohit Khanna a young and handsome man in thirties, the same person Shanaya had seen impressing Erina, Vihaan's secretary and vice versa, heard his answer and looked at Vihaan to see his eyes looking at something else.

Rohit had never worked with Vihaan and, it was his first time working with him, but, he had heard a lot about his sincerity.

In the past month, he had felt bonding with Vihaan and had felt the same from his side. It was rare for him to have such connections with his business partner.

Shifting his gaze to the thing Vihaan had been watching, he found it was not a thing, but, gorgeous Shanaya Malhotra and, he knew the rest. Many times he had heard Vihaan making fun of him on the name of Erina, or teasing him with her name and today, was his chance.

Chuckling to himself, he cleared his throat and shifting back his gaze to the lost Vihaan he questioned:" Do you like her?"

He almost laughed when he heard Vihaan "Yes, ofcourse."

God! catching Vihaan unaware was one of the opportunity no one could miss and, Rohit was not going to lose it.

Rohit: "They are looking great together, isn't it?"

Vihaan: "Yes, ofcourse."

Rohit: "Shanaya looks better with him."

Rohit could no longer stop himself from laughing when he heard Vihaan" Yes, ofcourse."

Diverted by Rohit's laugh, Vihaan removed his gaze from Shanaya and saw an amusing Rohit looking in his direction.

Confused, Vihaan enquired with a hint of annoyance" What?"

"Man! you are completely ruined!" slapping Vihaan on his arms jokingly, Rohit continued" You have your undivided attention on her for the last ten minutes."

"Yes, just like you are by thinking about Erina." Vihaan's mind spoke but not his tongue.

Now was not the good time to tease him.

Shifting on his chair, looking here and there, to make it as if no one had caught him looking at Shanaya, Vihaan cleared his throat and spoke:" It's not like that."

"Ya, ya, very nice excuse, isn't it? You can't even persuade yourself by this answer." complained his mind.

"Really? Do you even know what I said to you?" shifting a little toward Vihaan, Rohit enquired.

"What was it?" searching his mind for any guess, Vihaan pleaded his almighty mind to help him once, but, how could it help him when his mind too was busy admiring Shanaya.

He answered" Ofcourse not!" immediately when he heard Rohit" They look good together". and closed his eyes.

Fuck! he once again had proved him right!
