Chapter 40 - Chapter 40 : From her world to mine

POV: Bunny – Office Setting

A call from Mom.

Mom:

"Bunny, it's been a month since we met. Come home, baby."

Bunny:

"Okay Mom, I'll leave tomorrow."

Mom:

"Hmm, I miss you."

Bunny:

"I miss you too."

Call disconnects.

I got up, smiling happily. I looked toward Aarav and walked into his office.

Bunny:

"May I come in, sir?"

Aarav (smirking):

"Come in, girlfriend."

Bunny:

"Ugh, don't say that out loud! What if someone hears?"

(whispers, playfully hitting him)

But Aarav suddenly pulled me close and whispered:

Aarav:

"This is my office. No one enters here without my permission."

Bunny:

"Ohh really, Mr. CEO?"

Bunny (grinning):

"Anyway, I came to ask for a week off."

Aarav:

"Huh? Why?"

Bunny:

"My mom called. She wants me to come home. So… I have to go."

Aarav (without thinking):

"Then I'm coming too."

POV: Bunny

Bunny (surprised):

"What?! You're coming with me?"

Aarav (crossing his arms, smirking):

"Yeah, why not? She's your mom... my future mother-in-law. I should meet her, right?"

Bunny (raising an eyebrow):

"Oh really? Since when did your lines get so formal?"

Aarav (stepping closer, voice dropping):

"Things become formal when the feelings are real."

I looked away, heart thumping. Idiot.

Bunny (muttering):

"When did you become this cheesy?"

Aarav (smiling):

"Since I fell for a girl who's stubborn, smart, a little short-tempered, a little cute… and completely mine."

I rolled my eyes, trying to suppress the smile tugging at my lips. He really knew how to mess with my heart.

Bunny:

"Anyway, pack your own bags. Mine are already done."

Aarav:

"Wait… you already decided I'm going?"

Bunny (grinning):

"You literally just said it yourself."

He grabbed my hand and gently pulled me closer.

Aarav (softly):

"If you ask, I'll leave the world behind… a short trip is nothing."

Bunny:

"Stop it, movie hero. We're leaving at 7 a.m. Don't forget to set your alarm."

Aarav:

"I don't need an alarm. When you're with me… I wake up on my own."

I turned to leave before my cheeks completely betrayed me.

Bunny (walking out, whispering under her breath):

"Idiot…"

Aarav (calling out from behind, grinning):

"I'm yours, after all."
