SWNOVELS Chapter CHAPTER 8
The next day I was awake because my cell was continuously ringing and buzzing with too many notifications, and I was like, What the hell? By groaning, I started checking my cell; there were too many calls from family and friends. What the hell must have happened?
I immediately dialed my sister’s number. She told me to check the latest news and gossip column and informed me to come to the company. Couldn’t they come to my flat? I immediately started checking the news. Damn, someone has captured yesterday’s picture with Ana. She is fucking not going to spare me. Thank God her hair covered her face. Tagline: ‘Our playboy new girlfriend.’ What the hell? For sure, she is going to skin me alive. I forcefully dragged her, told me to stay in the car, didn’t listen to her, and didn’t want any attention; I just gave her what she didn’t want.
Wow, just great. How the hell am I going to explain this to my family? They were thinking that I would finally end my playboy act and get engaged to my current girlfriend, like hell I would. I can’t explain to them all the expectations I have for my future wife: she should be more than me or equivalent to me in every aspect; she should challenge me; I should be inspired by her; she should be the one I look to whenever I feel like giving up; she should back me up whenever I am on the verge of falling; I am tired of fighting alone; how the hell am I going to explain these things to my family?
I left my flat when I reached my cabin. My family was already present, and my sister spoke, “Who is she?“ “My assistant,” “Don’t tell me you didn’t spare this one too; Ana is not like that. I spoke with her a few times; she got very high, of course, with her set of opinions on you.” “Oh God, nothing is going on between us; I felt like playing in the rain; I dragged her with me; that’s it.” My mom spoke, “Always you will mess things up; how are you going to explain this to Kristina? I thought finally you would end up with her; what are you searching for in a girl I am really not getting now? If you search this much, you will end up getting quite the opposite; mark my words.” I said, ”Mom, please let me handle this.” “Always messing everything up is not good to stick to something; how are you going to explain this to Kristina? At least were you serious with her or not?” By that time, there was a knock on my cabin; don’t tell me it was Ana.
How the hell am I going to explain everything to her? Will she listen calmly, like hell she would? Upon permission, she entered. She was carrying my blazer and my coffee. Strangely, she was calm, with no commotion. How the hell is that even possible? Is she not aware of the latest news, which is highly unlikely? She was about to exit the cabin when my mom made her take a seat, to which she obliged.
My mom spoke, “Ana I guess you are aware of the latest news, I know nothing is going on between you two, but you both need to solve this at the earliest before a few other wings are added to this and make it worst, so how you both going to solve this, let’s discuss what should be done, that’s why we came to sought out at earliest”, Ana spoke, “Mam, yes, I saw the news but I don’t think my involvement is necessary, because from yesterday it’s purely Mr. Anderson fault, this is what happened let me explain, yesterday when it started raining, we started watching as the view from this cabin dam good, out of blue he said that he wanted to play in rain, of course, I denied him still he dragged me. We could have enjoyed it on the rooftop or somewhere more private place, but he took me to the beach. I knew his face wouldn’t do me any good, so I told him to stay in the car, but he didn’t listen to me. came out of the car and started enjoying the rain again, forcing me to play along with him. After that, we had our food, and he finally dropped me off at my flat. Nothing else happened other than this. So, in this whole scenario, nothing was my fault; thank God that my hair covered my face in time; I am so safe, don’t you think; it’s not necessary to involve myself in this mess; Mr. Anderson is solely responsible for everything, so he should solve this without involving me; you won’t believe I am thanking my hair from the morning for saving me.”
I never saw this side of Ana; it was the first time, and I was astonished. This idiot was playing a fucking safe card, so that’s why she is so calm, or else she would turn my company upside down. Yesterday I felt pity for her for a few seconds, sitting in front of me in a relaxed way and dumping everything on me, calculating everything perfectly to keep her safe from this mess, and here I was thinking how the hell to convince her, not even giving any idea regarding this situation, completely making herself safer, and what the hell I should do with her.
I know it’s not her fault completely it was mine, but playing this safe game, pin to pin explaining to my parents, I am feeling like hitching to do something, that innocent face you are gone trust me, I finally spoke, “Everyone please listen I will look into this matter try to solve at earliest, don’t worry and also I will handle my girlfriend ok, please rest assure you can go home”, my sister “Wow what an assistant you got, my god she is dam matching to you, you are dam lucky one“, with that everyone exited my cabin, I was seeing Ana’s face, yeah I am dam lucky one, that relaxed face, and spoke, “If you are finally done, I think you should go and do your work”, “Ok”, with that she also exited my cabin.
I started working on pending files. After like an hour, Ana came running towards my cabin. Without knocking, she entered. She was in a panic state. I said, “What is it?” and “Your girlfriend is on her way. She called me and was asking about the picture; whether I was the one who was in the picture, she was so mad over the phone. I immediately denied it, but she was still not convinced. So tell me what you are going to do, how you are going to convince her, and are you going to bring my name in any case?” Now it’s fucking getting interesting. I was carving for this face from morning finally, I spoke, “You were so relaxed, common you must have planned about that too, tell me you were the one with me yesterday right, how I should convince my girlfriend without bringing your name”, “But it’s not my fault you dragged me in everything on top of it, we didn’t do anything wrong, she is your girlfriend you should know how to convince her right, so tell me what you going to do”, “Common, who told you that I am going to convince my girlfriend, you are good at explaining everything right, like morning you clearly explained everything to my parents pin to pin, now it’s your job, explain everything to her and try to convince my girlfriend that nothing happened between us ok baby”, “Don’t call me that, whenever you call me that way some disaster going to happen, your girlfriend, it’s your responsibility to convince her, how the heck I should do, she won’t listen to me no matter what”, “Then I guess I should bring your name”, “Don’t you dare to bring my name why you are bound in getting me killed by your girlfriend, you idiot you dragged me so you solve it”, she was holding my collar with furious eyes Wow, this side of her I am really liking.
I am not even sorry for my next move. The next thing I did was kiss her. What perfect timing! My girlfriend entered my cabin after seeing this; she will be fuming with rage. Ana broke our kiss and was frightened. How the hell can she show so many emotions in a few seconds? Was I that capable of bringing those?
Kristina spoke, “What the heck you both are doing, you bitch I knew something was going on between you two, you were the one with him yesterday right, you were trying to deny it, from how many days you both are playing behind my back”, I spoke, “Ana is good at explaining, pin to pin, she will explain everything, Ana baby go on”, “What the hell, shut up you jerk, nothing is going on between us, yeah, in yesterday’s picture I was the one, but we didn’t do anything wrong trust me”, “Trust you bitch just a few seconds back you both were kissing, caught red-handed still denying it, what a cunning thing you are”, “He kissed me I didn’t reciprocate it”, now they were circling my table, Ana was trying her best to escape from Kristina.
Ana spoke, “Bastard, do something. Everything was your fucking fault. Why the heck you kissed me?” “Common baby, how many days are we going to hide this? Eventually she would come to know, Today is the day.” “What the hell are you talking about? Shut the hell up, you asshole. She will kill me for sure.” Kristina spoke, “Won’t you still quit your innocent act, you bitch? I will ruin your life. Mark my words. I will go to the media to expose both of you. Trust me.” Meanwhile, I called security to escort Kristina from my cabin. She was cursing; both of us forcefully dragged her out, as far as I care. I took my seat on the couch while digesting, and I saw Ana trying to control herself from strangling me.
“Bastard, you will go to hell; mark my words. Why the hell will you always try to drag me into your mess? If she goes to the media, what about me, and how the hell am I going to survive over here?” Again, her bloody safe zone. Speak to her; do something; I don’t want my name to be ruined, not with you at least.” “I don’t care; let her go and do whatever she wants.” “What about me? I don’t want to associate with you.” Common baby, don’t you think it’s too late for that?” “Why the hell did you kiss me, jerk?” “She was pain. I wanted to get rid of her. From the time we returned from vacation, she was pressuring me to propose to her. Thanks to you, finally, I never planned this way. Trust me.” “Don’t you feel remorse for your doing; you should ask permission before kissing someone; you can’t do whatever you want”; “Please, I am trying to forget about the kiss; you are pathetic kisser; why the hell do you suck in everything? That’s not your first kiss, right?“; “Shut it; it’s not; I had few before”; “Like 5 or 6, I guess” “Will you shut up, why the hell you are so dam not worried of consequences, you are not sorry for anything, you could have breakup with her nice way, was it necessary to include me, why can’t you consider opposite person feeling just for once”, “Trust me you both deserve it, you especially asked for it, no one knows better than you to pisses anyone like you do, you playing bloody safe game and please I don’t want relationship advice from a nun, will you get me coffee I want to get relaxed after watching the live show”, “Please tell me I am dying to find an answer for this, you are born jerk or you turn into one”, “Will you get out”, “Sooner or later you will taste your own doing”, “That applies to both us darling, you are partner in my crime”, “Shut the hell up.” With that, she exited my cabin by cursing for sure.
