Chapter 230 - I did not tell Karan anything. (2/2)

”You won't tell me what happened.- These were Karan's words. And, he was right. You didn't tell me.” I sighed sadly.

How much I wanted to prove Karan wrong. I thought there was nothing Innaya would share with others and would not tell me. In the end, things turned out differently. Innaya refused to admit anything, siding with Karan.

Perhaps it was jealousy, or it might be a disappointment. These emotions kept building up for a long time before I lost it today. Being bitter, sarcastic, or hurt her was not what I wanted, but I ultimately did that.

Innaya stiffened in my arms. She pushed at my chest. Reluctantly, I allowed her to. I had said my piece. I should give her a chance.

”When did Karan tell you that?” Innaya asked.

”The day it happened.”

Innaya gasped.

”I could not stomach the fact that you would believe him, and share your worries with him, keeping me in dark.” I looked away, taking a step back.

Innaya held onto my wrist, stopping me effectively. ”I did not tell Karan anything.”

”What?” My eyes went wide. ”You did not tell him anything? Then why? Oh my! He lied to me. He played with me... Damn.”

I ran my hands through my hair, pacing in the space between the bathtub and Innaya. ”How could I fall for his provocations? Just how could?

”Eshan,” Innaya called my name. Her voice pulled me out of my ranting.

”I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.” I kneeled before her, holding onto her arms. ”I did not want to believe his words. I did not, but then when-” you did not explain, I started believing him. The rest of the words died on my lips.

I should not be telling her.

”Eshan, what did he tell you?” Innaya cupped my face. She made me face her as she leaned down a bit.

”I don't care what he told you, but I can swear on anything that I did not share anything with him. He knows nothing... You hear me?”
