I Marked Her Mine - Chapter 122

Standing against one of the walls of the VIP elevator, wearing dark blue skinny jeans with a white jacket, Shanaya adjusted her long, wispy layered honey coloured hair with her index finger.

She was so sleepy, all she wanted was to close her eyes and not to open them till eternity.

Well, eternity not as in going to heaven and meet GOD so early.

“And why do you think you will go to heaven? You can go to hell too.” spoke her mind and, she made her face.

She was in the midst of the process of ignoring her mind for some time now.

But, yes, all she wanted was to go straight to her home, get tucked inside the warm blanket, get cosy alone in it and go to sleep.

That too, when she had come just five minutes before from her apartment!

The reason for her condition was simple..

She had not been able to sleep the entire night because like usual, she was busy thinking all the worst scenarios.

Being an overthinker was not an easy task, after all.

And, every scene included Vihaan.

Closing her eyes while leaning against the wall, Shanaya felt the elevator stop, but, she did not change her posture.

“Let me sleep. It’s a VIP elevator no one will be entering in it.”, speaking to her conscious version, Shanaya was about to go back to sleep when a thought entered her mind” Yes, no one except, Vihaan.” and she suddenly jerked herself to stand straight.

“Fuck!” cursing, Shanaya adjusted her hair, clothes without having any idea if they were okay within a second before the door opened.

Everything happened in a second, a second earlier, she was enjoying her nap time and, a second later, she was standing as if preparing herself to see the devil.

A handsome devil.

Her heart knew it very well.

Vihaan was talking with Erina about his schedule while standing outside the elevator, waiting for it to open when he sensed Shanaya, like always.

He knew before taking a step inside the lift, he knew before lifting his gaze to see her standing in front of him with her eyes down.

It seemed like Vihaan had to wait to see his reflection in Shanaya’s eyes, again and he had no idea how he was going to do it.

“Ouch, it hurts to be ignored by her, isn’t it?” ignoring his mind sarcasm, Vihaan took his position beside Shanaya and saw Erina standing a few distances away from them, in front of them.

Vihaan did not waste his minutes to avoid looking at Shanaya.

Instead, the moment elevator’s door closed, he scanned her from head to toe, noticed her tomato coloured cheeks which could either have turned because she was blushing or because of the chill of December, her eyes that kept hiding as if hiding them would hide her body.

He closed his hand in a fist when his eyes rest on her red lips and the memories of him touching them, tasting them came flooding.

He wanted it, again and again.

He knows he was the resident of her heart and the relief he felt knowing that was indescribable.

Standing closer to him, Shanaya wanted to know how he was looking, what he was wearing, how messy his hair was, how kissable his lips were, what was the intensity of his eyes, what was his feeling at the moment and, was he too thinking of kissing her.

Shanaya cleared her throat to speak when she heard Erina greeting her and, the voice that comes out was only enough to reach Erina with difficulty “Good morning, Erina.”

Flashing a smile at Erina, Shanaya did not speak more than that and, ignoring Vihaan as if he was a ghost she tried to engage her mind at something else.

God! she was inches away from Vihaan and, yet she could feel his body heat and the urge to continue feeling it was so dominating, she could remain standing there for eternity.

“Well, well, darling, isn’t it the time to test your theory?” Shanaya heard her mind and, before she knew, she starts thinking about his celebrity crush.

She had read somewhere, to move on from someone, you need to bring someone else in your life, you need to like and love someone else, but considering her recent activities with Saaransh, she doubts it.

But, she had no other alternative, and after thinking or overthinking, she had concluded something.

She was going to accept her love for Vihaan but to herself. She was not going to deny anymore, was not going to account him responsible for her broken heart, was not going to keep that 0.1% of hope that had kept her stuck waiting for Vihaan.
