I Marked Her Mine - Chapter 115
Sitting on the comforting bamboo stool on the lawn of her parent’s home in Australia in loose white tee and denim shorts, Shanaya was sipping the hot chocolate coffee while admiring the starry sky and the full moon.
All she could see was the looks of horror on Avni and vansh’s face. She wanted to explain to them, to tell them she had no choice but to hide it, but, at that time she just remained sitting on the stairs.
Her body refused, even when, her mind was screaming at her to do something to save her friendship.
To save the relationship with Avni, which she valued more than her love for Vihaan.
She could not fathom how everything falls in front of her, and, she could do nothing!
And, about Vihaan! she was going to make him pay for all of it.
She seems lost, to such an extent, she did not notice Saaransh’s eyes on her.
Saaransh sitting beside her wearing his usual solid joggers and a white tee kept on looking at her in an attempt to know the reason behind her silence..
Not like he had no idea.
Throughout the flight, they have not spoken more than two times, that too was not more than “Are you okay?” and “We have arrived.”
If the flight had not been to her parents’ home, Saaransh knew Shanaya would not be with him.
Saaransh saw her sitting gloomily at the window seat, looking outside it and sleeping in the total nineteen hours they were on the flight.
But, he did not confront her. He wanted to, but he knew she needed time, for she looked all shaken up.
More than confront, he wanted her to talk to him as a friend, no more than it, for now, he too knew, where they both stand.
He needed no answers or words from Shanaya to know they were no more than a friend as of now.
Busy in her world, Shanaya jumped on her stool when he heard “Oh, my God! look who is here!” and she could not stop beaming.
Standing in front of her, was a boy, a good looking and a tallboy.
Amazed at her reaction, Saaransh could not stop wondering about the boy and the next moment he saw Shanaya jumping on the boy and hugging him like no one.”Oh, my baby!! ‘you are here!! I waited for you!” kissing the boy on his cheeks, Shanaya hugged him again.
“Sisyy! No one told me you are coming.” bending backwards a little to see Shanaya’s face, Akshar spoke.
Saaransh could find the hint of love but also respect in Akshar’s voice and, he was not surprised.
Shanaya was a lovely woman, no doubt.
And as for respect, she had that aura, that would make people respect her.
Either out of choice or out of demand.
“Well, it was a surprise” face filled with genuine smile and happiness, Shanaya answered him.
How much she had missed them!
“My my! You have turned out to be a handsome man” with pride looks, the same pride a mother feel for her son, Shanaya felt his face with her hands and look at his striking features.
Akshar was a tall boy, of around 6’2 height, brown hair just like Shanaya, eyes just like her.
They would have looked like twins if the face cut of Akshar would have been round just like Shanaya, but he had an Oval face with a perfect nose and short hair.
“Oh, sissy! I would have come to pick you up” and, at that point, Shanaya realized they were not alone.
Breaking the hug, Shanaya turned her attention toward Saaransh and spoke:” Saaransh, meet my brother, Akshar.”
Scanning Saaransh from head to toe, to make sure he was even worth sitting with Shanaya, Akshar forward his hand for a shake and spoke with a tone of possessiveness, possessiveness of a brother toward his sister” Hello”.

Vihaan had no idea about his feelings anymore.
All he knew was, he was missing Shanaya, her company, her aura, her voice and her presence around him.
Apart from it, he was all confused about his state of emotions.
He was regretful for revealing everything about Shanaya and him, for it has caused Shanaya further away.
He was relieved, for it meant he no longer needed to fear Saaransh.
He knew Saaransh would never think of Shanaya as his after hearing the truth.
And, he was damn angry on himself, for hurting his best friend, again.
Hell asking, she had not even shown the sign of knowing him when they had first met, face to face.
Sitting on his chair in his office, in a white shirt with folded sleeves and no tie, long and messy beard, he kept his phone on which he was looking at Shanaya’s Instagram profile, like usual and laid back on his chair, supporting his back.
Closing his eyes, he recalled the moment he saw Shanaya for the first time.
It had been a year before when Avni had informed them about Anubhav’s marriage proposal and, they had planned to announce it during Senior Rathore’s anniversary.
Busy in his office work, planning for the anniversary party, Vihaan had just enough time to know, someone Avni and Vansh know, to be precise, their friend who was also supposed to be fashion designer, as well as event manager, was going to come to the Mansion on both of their invitations.
To add more to it, he had been informed by Avni that she had asked the same friend to organise for the party so that everyone can see her work since Avni wants her wedding to be planned by her.
