A promise: That changed my life

Karan

She nodded slowly, "Yes, you can say, " she says brightly, I wanted to hug her when a voice interrupted us.

"I hope I am not bothering you both, " Anjali spoke, wandering towards us. I averted my gazes.

"Oh, no you are not, " Adah replies, and I rolled my eyes with a small sigh of frustration.

"Mood ruiner, " I mumbled under my breath addressing Anjali, I wanted to spend some more with Adah since we were alone but no, someone has to ruin our time in some way.

"If you don't mind, can I steal Karan for a few minutes?" She asks Adah, she glanced at me and then back at her.

"Sure, " Adah said, turning towards me as she mouthed, 'Please try to be nice to her' while flashing me her puppy eyes and left, leaving me alone with her. Anjali has so many reasons to steal my happiness away from me.

"Hey, Karan, " She starts the conversation after getting ignored by me for 3 straight minutes.

"What is it?" I directly questioned.

"I...umm, thanks for saving me today, " She trails off, glimmering a smile.

I nodded my head, "No worries, but I don't you to be in the dark thinking I was there to save you, whatever, I did was only for Danny and Esha, " I said, noticing her face fall.

She kept her sadness hidden and plastered a smile, "Still, if you haven't had come, I couldn't imagine what consequences we had to face, "

"Don't imagine then, " I told her.

"I am sorry for everything, " She says in a low voice. I shot her a glance in annoyance, "I should have to tell you earlier, "

"But you haven't cus you never trusted me enough, " I told her, slightly pissed off.

She shook her head in no, "It's nothing like that, Karan, I trusted you more than anything it's just that...."

"You were scared of your parents and that bastard Marc." I finished for her.

She nodded in agreement, "I was stupid, "

"I know, "

she looked at me,

couldn't able to deny her so having no choice, I married Adah that innocent girl, had no idea about me or anything, we had no relationship still she always stood by me in all the situations, she showed me what selfless love looks like without expecting anything back, no doubt,

a hint of jealousy and guilt in her eyes, she bit her lower lips, saying, "You also love her a lot,

Adah but rather than telling her my feelings, I better keep my mouth shut, changing my words to,
