Celebrity Crush Turned Deadly Love! novel Chapter 37

Akshu's PoV

We broke our kiss when we heard my mom's bike coming. His face held guilt.

"I'm sorry, Shia." he said.

He said what? What is he sorry for?

"You don't like me?" I asked him.

"Pch, Stop talking like this, Shia. I have this weird feeling towards you. I can promise you that never have I ever felt this before on anyone. I said sorry because even now I feel I'm not the one for you!" He said. He is struggling to accept that this weird feeling he has on me is called love.

"I love you!" I told him still in his embrace.

He looked at me like I'm going to disappear any second now. His deep brown orbs are trying to pierce my eyes. When I leaned in for another kiss, he took a step back.

“I will see you tomorrow.” He said walking out of the room.

My mom came in exactly when we came out of our room. Her face had a big question mark. I can sense anger in her. I should explain everything to her.

"Hello, Mrs.Sumathi. I'm Yadav Rishid. I'm the one who bought Mr.Benjamin's mansion. He said your daughter is a fan of mine. So just came by to see her." he spoke like it's the truth.

Thiruttu paiyan! (Little thief)

"Oh, Welcome son. Yes, my daughter is a fan of yours. She even has your picture framed on the walls."

"She just showed me now. I'm so happy to have met her. I just got to know that she knows my mom and dad too. Such a small world. It's nice to meet you too. If you don't mind, can I call you aunty?"

Wow, He is a natural!

"Sure, son. She knows your mom and dad?" my mom asked him and saw me. Oops, I forgot to tell her that Shalu aunty is his mom.

"um...yes ma. Shalu aunty is his mom. I just got to know this last week. I forgot to tell you!"

"Oh! So that is why you wanted to join his company? Did you get a recommendation from Shalini?" My mom asked me with a raised tone.

"Oh no, aunty. I didn't do any interviews recently."

Thank God. He saved me.

"Oh, She said she got a call letter from your office . But she had signed a contract for a year in this office where she is now working." my mom said, giving him a fresh coffee with some snacks and fresh strawberries.

"That's not a problem, aunty. Our HR department will take care of that."

He went out after having a little chit chat and making my mom believe whatever he said was true. He made more of my work easier. Now mom wouldn't have so many questions.

"So Akshu, How many of what he was telling were true?" my mom asked me after sending him off.What should I tell her?

"Ma?"

"I can read between the lines, Akshu. He was good at shielding away. But you are not. I saw you fumble and fiddle whenever I asked him something."

Ok, My mom is a genius. I told her everything . From our first encounter to this time. Except for the sensor part and the part where I proposed to him. Duh! My mom is a very strict woman.

"So you already like him. Now what?" She asked me.

"Ma?"
