In Love with My Psychologist: SS (Short Story) Chapter 7 (pg. 15) - Page 2

"This Shruti bhi na she's so annoying and demanding I can't stand her" I said to myself angrily as I plumped myself on to the bed with a sigh. Suddenly my mind ran on Mehak, beautiful, simple, cute, pagli, sexy Mehak. I have been on lots of dates with many girls and never have I ever come across someone who is can be so childish but so mature at the same time, Maybe I should call her? Then the cruel reality hit me that Mehak overreacted years ago and cruelly and blatantly threw me out of her life I can remember her words like piercing daggers through my heart "listen I never want to talk to you or hear from you ever again in my life" I slowly replied to her text haughtily "You mean that?" knowing that from past experiences she always came running back to me swallowing her pride and apologising for her behaviour, eagerly awaiting her response she replied "I mean that Mr. Khanna, I may love you and I may miss you like hell but I've had it with this nonsense we never talk anymore and you're always giving me hope that maybe somehow or somewhere something can happen again but I was wrong and this whole thing is my fault because you're in love with Shruti now" and with that I just replied with a cold "K" not wanting to show her my hurt. But she has proven her point that she is strong and she'll never come back and it hurt, it hurt my pride, it hurt my ego, and somewhere somehow it hurt my heart. I'm not in love with her but I did have feelings for her, maybe I still do. I shouldn't call her, I have bigger issues to deal with anyway.

Shruti the "supposed" love of my life has again betrayed my trust, I caught her flirting with one of my associates at my firms the young, aspiring Entrepreneur Siddharth Gautam. Why does she keep doing this to me over and over, she knows I love her, we have even been living together for the past five years. Maybe I deserve this? Maybe it's my Karma? Just then Shruti came and seductively stood in front of me with the slinky dress she made me buy for her yesterday after our passionate make up. She looked terribly revolting in that dress, Shruti had begun putting a few extra kilos over the past few days and I knew she couldn't have been pregnant because she had complications and believe me we've tried to have a child but to no avail. We never got married though, marriage was never an option with her because I don't trust her, knowing Shruti she'll do everything in her power to usurp wealth and I just could not have that. "How does it look baby" I looked at her feigning interest "lovely baby" and she squealed and hugged me I gently pulled away from the hug and headed for the shower as Shruti admired her dress in the mirror as I pressed play on my I pod "Tu Jaane Na" came on.

PAST

I sat there in Mehak's family bar, which was now mine for one year as stated in the contract. When suddenly I felt my phone buzz when I clicked on the message from the strange number, the message stated "Hey now got home, what are you doing?" as I clicked on the profile picture I saw that it was Mehak the sexy niece of the lovely couple, words could not express how elated I was as I finally got this hot girl's number after months of her ignoring me whenever she walked into the bar. To my surprise I received another message from her "s**t! sorry that was for my boyfriend, I sent it to you by mistake" then it dawned upon me that this girl has a boyfriend, I smirked to myself there's no way this can be mistake I think she wants me and she has a boyfriend even better I replied to her message "sureee it was" and inserted a few emojis but she never replied. The next morning I decided to message her "Good morning, hope you have a blessed day" she didn't reply until hours later "Thanks you too" later that day she messaged me "how dare you treat Kia in that manner?" I was baffled. Kia was my troublesome cousin who helped me in and out of the bar, Kia and Mehak were good friends, yesterday afternoon Kia and I had a disagreement because she began slacking off on her duties at the bar lately and we had a dispute over that the previous night. Kia and Mehak were also good friends and Mehak would always come into to talk to her while she completely ignored me, it bothered me how much Mehak ignored me, how dare she ignore THE Shaurya Khanna. "what are you talking about?" she replied "is Kia your maid?" I replied angrily "listen Kia is my cousin and I have known her way longer than you have, Kia has been slacking off on her duties lately and I just disciplined her a bit so that she would improve her work ethic, what's the problem?" she replied "listen I know Kia can be a little lazy but if you can just be a little nicer to her it would be very much appreciated, thank you" I replied "fine then you talk to her because I have no patience for Kia's behaviour toward work" an hour later she replied "I'll speak to her for you then, but you have to be nicer to her" I smiled as I read the message "that would be greatly appreciated thanks, by the way how come you don't talk to me whenever you come into the bar?" I asked as I eagerly awaited her response "Because I don't interact much with people I don't know, I am an introvert" I chuckled "oh really? Well you need to speak to me" she replied "why is that Mr. Khanna?" I smirked "because I know where you live and I'm frequently there plus its bad manners to not speak to your renters" she replied with "lol okay, I'll try" later that evening I clicked on her profile picture and my jaw hit the floor there she was Mehak in a two piece bikini looking even sexier as she did the first time I saw her with her damp wet hair and tiny shorts, I decided to message her "umm...excuse me is that you?" she replied "yes why do you ask?" I carefully replied "well it's just that you look... I don't want to be rude but you look good" she replied "lol thank you, but I think I'm too skinny sigh" I was baffled "and that's a problem?" she replied "well yea, because everyone these days goes crazy over thick girls" the girl made a fair point "well that's true, thick girls rule, but when I attended high school skinny girls like you used to make me weak in my knees" she replied "lol oh that's nice" wait that's it lol that's nice, I complimented this b***h can't she even say thank you? I replied " it's a really good picture that's all" she replied "lol thanks, well I'm going to sleep now good night" I replied "okay missy goodnight sweet dreams" and inserted a kissy face, trying to show her my interest in her but she never replied, guess she must have slept away. I then saved her picture to my phone what can I do? she was so sexy and that picture was just perfect how can I not keep it and with that I went to sleep.

PRESENT

"Hello Mr. Khanna?" The voice sounded very professional as I answered "yes? This is him, how may I help you?" The voice replied "I'm Mr. Ali of Ali's real estate agency in Dubai we have an offer for you at Dubai's newest night club for you to invest into, people are really excited about it opening up I think with your entrepreneurial skills you'd be able to make more happening, are you interested?" I tried to contain my excitement as I calmly replied "well I'll have to meet you to talk about this is more detail, when can I meet you" Mr. Ali spoke "can you come to Dubai tomorrow and we can discuss this further?" I was elated finally I'd be getting a break from Shruti and her non sense there's no way I'm bringing her with me on this trip to Dubai "Sure, I'll see you tomorrow, please email me the details?" Mr. Ali spoke "Great I'll have my secretary email you the details" I spoke "that'll be fantastic, thanks" and with that I kept the phone down.
