Chapter 118 - Arjuns Surprise (2/2)

Just a day before, I had a panic attack, and I was still dealing with its after-effects. Thankfully, Eshan accepted the explanation I gave to him.

”Let's go. Where are we going by the way?” I asked Eshan once I reached near him while I fastened the watch on my wrist.

When I did not receive any response from Eshan, I raised my head, halting my movement. Taken aback on taking in Eshan's stunned face before my eyes, I momentarily forgot what I was saying.

His brown eyes were fixed on my face as if he was seeing me for the first time. Breaking out of the trance, I consciously touched my face. Was there something on my face?

I opened my purse to take out the mobile. Picking out the mobile, I went to the camera. Observing my face in it, I found nothing was out of place. Then, why was Eshan so thrown away? Did he not like my outfit? I looked down at my black jeans and a purple top. I did not find it that bad. I raised my head, not understanding the reason behind Eshan's behavior.

”Eshan? Is there something wrong with my outfit?” I asked him lightly touching his arm.

Eshan visibly flinched as if electrocuted. He shook his head as he looked here and there. His hand went to his hair, messing the neatly combed hair. Few bangs fell on his forehead, and he did not even realize.

”Are you done? Let's go,” he said as he turned and left hastily mumbling something on his way. I failed to catch up on what he was muttering though.

I stared at his back. Just what the hell happened just now? He did not even listen to my words, did not even answer my question, and left just like that. I frowned as I followed behind him wondering what might be the reason behind his unusual behavior.

I was looking down while walking, and thus my lack of attention ended up making me collide against Eshan who had returned.

”Sorry.”

”What's wrong with you?”

We both said at the same time. I rubbed my forehead which received the hit from his sturdy chest.

”It's your fault. You are looking so beautiful that I can hardly concentrate on anything,” Eshan mumbled.

My face started heating up as I caught on his words that were not meant to be for my ears.

”What are you thinking about?” Eshan's voice pulled me out of my memory lane.

Thinking about that morning, I suddenly got goosebumps. At that time I did not know about Eshan's true feelings. I had no idea that he was in love with me. Now, looking back, many weird behaviors of his were starting to make sense to me.

”Nothing,” I replied as I blinked my eyes. I folded my lips to stop them from curving in a foolish grin.

I had forgotten about the roses in the last two months. I wondered how they were even alive. Maybe, someone took care of them, and I did not notice it.

”Woof, woof.”

Suddenly the barking sound of dog came and startled I hurried back. However, behind me, Eshan was standing so I had nowhere to go.

”Is it what I think it is?” I mumbled when the barking sound became prominent.
