The Unwanted Princess

part-39

"You don't even know how your mere presence has changed my life again."

Panchi stepped back in her home an easy smile placed on her lips as she hummed the punjabi song stuck in her head from Viaan's apartment. Who knew Viaan had a hidden home here too?? The most surprising fact were his neighbors namely Swadhin Raizada and Rohan Sharma. The whole floor belonged to those crazy cricketers and even the upper floor was hogged by her dear cousin brother and he didn't even one mention his secret hideout to her. This definitely called for serious retaliation.

She is relatively in ease from the past few weeks, weeks she hadn't seen one Omav Oberoi. She is still unsure why her heart felt like it has broken and shattered again watching him in that condition but she promised herself she won't think about him or his actions, it only causes her heart to beat painfully. It has been three weeks since that incident, two week since his discharge from hospital and a week since the finals. Two weeks since she last saw him and thanked him with a bouquet of bellflowers,Chrysanthemum, Irises and sweetpeas. The conflicted, melancholic, unrequited look in his eyes made the environment feel so sad and dire.

And the madness of the next week, surrounding the finals. She remembers the thrill and excitement of that day, sitting in the VIP box with Anya and Ansh cheering for her boys. Swadhin and Ro's opening partnership of sixes and Vi finishing in style with a six. The anxiety when in the last over 24 runs was needed and win was oscillating on the edge, with each six coming their side with each dot ball going back in their side. The closed eyes and crossed fingers as the endgame came nearer and nearer with the last ball and the breath holding silence that had enveloped the stadium, changing into deafening cheers and shouts of joy as the six landed beyond boundary. The almost mad celebration and Vi controlling his instincts to not kiss Anya in the stadium among all the excitement and happiness as he held her close, kissing her forehead instead. The hootings that surrounded then when Vi went down on his knees presenting his player of the tournament to Anya like proposing her with a trophy instead of ring and the shouts,wolf whistles and cheers from both the team and crowd. That night was crazy and she still feels drunk with that feeling of giddiness and goodness, drunk on chaos, happiness and giddiness though both social and simple media had a field day that night with their videos and pics going viral on all platforms.

Most of them were Vianya and then the fours celebration pics, the way Niks twirled Anya after getting the Emerging player award was another Viral clip and not to mention both Savvy and Ro hugging the daylights out of her was creating it's own speculation online. And now papps were coming with a new speculation about her and Savvy everyday. Their pics going in circles, unknown people finding unmistakable burning chemistry between them, everytime they're spotted together people going gaga about their cuteness made her laugh and cry at the same time.

Laugh when she was going through them with Savvy, sitting in his living room talking about stories, rumors and speculations. A smiling Savvy telling her about a mad speculation of rift between him and Viaan going in media because of Anya. The rumor was something like this that both Viaan and he were fighting for Anya's love and that was causing undeniable rifts and fights between the said besties. Savvy was infatuated with Viaan's manager and Viaan loved his manager the story was a hit among people and their supposed fight too. Both of them had laughed on the rumors and speculations until tears ran down their faces. She really enjoyed his company, specifically his stories and how warm and happy he made her feel with his words, just his words and actions.
