Chapter 333 - Dreams would turn into reveries ... (1/2)

Sipping the water with the help of Louis, Diana took a deep breath and looked directly into his eyes but what she had said next, had successfully shattered the tiny hope in his heart like some broken glasses...

”I don't love you Louis…”

Louis felt that his world had stopped for a second but it was because of the pain he was feeling in his heart. He couldn't express how much it was hurting him to hear the rejection from the girl who was the first one to lit a hope of love in his life..

He tried to cover his sadness with a fake mask of smile but it turned into a confusion when Diana uttered her next word…

”Yet…” Diana added just this single word.

Louis took some time to understand what she had muttered and when he finally did, he looked at her hopefully before asking, ”What? What do you mean by 'yet'? Is there any chance for us in future?”

Diana smiled at him as she clearly noticed his expectations in his eyes and said, ”No we don't have any chance in future too…”

Hearing this, again Louis' face fell but before he could express his sorrow anymore, Diana said, ”Because I'm giving this chance right now…”

The one statement brought a smile on Louis' lips as he tilted up his head to look at her with happy eyes and asked, ”That's mean you'll try to..”

”Sssshhhh!! How much you talk. I gave you full freedom to tell me whatever you wanted and I myself kept quiet. So this time you'll give me the time to speak whatever I want..” Diana spoke with a soft smile hanging on her lips.

Louis nodded his head vigorously as if he was getting a command from his mother and kept mum.

Diana chuckled at his behaviour and said, ”It's true that I'm not in love with you yet. But I already like you very much. And now my this liking is slowly turning into love.

So like you…I'm also falling in your love. And it'll be not much time left when I'll completely be in love with you like Vero, Willa and Lucy love their own partners.”

This small yet very much sweet confession was enough to clear all the restrictions in their hearts and both of them felt that a big burden had been removed from their shoulders.

They gave each other a loving smile when Louis suddenly asked, ”So…are we a couple now?”

Diana giggled and replied, ”Seems like so…”

Louis didn't waste anymore time after hearing her confirmation and pulled her towards him, engulfing her in a tight hug.

”From today onwards…I'm going to protect you from all the demons. I'm going to take the revenge on all those people who had tried to hurt you in the past. I promise you that..” Louis said with determination present in his voice.

Diana's eyes welled up in happy tears but she still smiled and replied, ”And I promise you to fall in love with you as soon as possible.”

Louis smiled, smelling her hair as he caressed her back to soothe her from all sadness...
