Enchanted Love

Edward and Alina looked at Clara to see if she was for real here? Clara can never hurt any person but now she is hell bent to push Alex to the limit that he might explode back. Why does she want to do this?

“He has changed now. Cauliflower is his favorite. It’s not what I am saying. He just said those to me” Clara reasoned her statement as Alina and Edward sighed tiredly. When will they grow up and behave maturely?

“But” Edward is cut by Alex as he grabs the plate and starts eating those as he wants to prove her wrong. But who he is kidding about? the lunch disaster itself is not yet healed with a single medicine and now he has no idea what he should take after this.

“Alex, you should stop eating this” Mira glared at Clara as if accusing her of this but she shrugged off her shoulders carelessly as she turned to Edward’s side to investigate him.

“By the way, Alina told me that you didn’t go with her for the evening date!” Clara munched her food casually, not making it obvious that she wanted to know.

“Yeah, I hit a lady by mistake. But yeah, she is fine and I am also not hurt. So I went to drop her off.” Edward replied and didn’t even look at Clara or Alina. Clara could see through his lies as she knew where he was. But why does he have to lie in the first place?

Mira took the cauliflower and ate it in one go so that Alex couldn’t have those. But still, he had some already. Clara rolled her eyes at his acting. Why act on such petty things? She decided to not provoke him further as for the fact she is getting affected for sure. The dinner went smoothly and Alina thanked the stars as there was no world war after the cauliflower incident. Can her birthday be more adventurous than this?

Right from the dinner till planning for the game, Clara tried to not get angry with Alex or Mira who are continuously attempting to annoy her.

“Let’s play truth or dare.” Edward spins the bottle as everyone seats accordingly. The bottle stopped near Mira first, making her jump in excitement.

“I will choose to dare,” Mira exclaimed happily. As a childhood friend of Alex, she is close to Edward too. It doesn’t sit well with Alina or Clara. But they kept calm not to create any drama.

“So how about you keep quiet for the next one hour?” Clara asked instantly with a smirk as if she found super daring for Mira. Alina controlled her giggle while Alex frowned at her. She can’t insult Mira like this.

“Edward, I didn’t know that you would invite her too. If I have known this, I wouldn’t have come” Mira is pissed off now

“How did you not know that? It’s my birthday and she is my friend. I would appreciate it if you take this just as a game.” Alina retorted instantly. Clara smiled at her possessive friend.

“Okay fine. So I am not doing this. So I can accept the punishment. But it’s only from Alex” Mira replied with a small smile, not wanting to upset Alex.

“Edward, shall we start?” Alex asked as both the guys threw evil smiles toward Mira who widened her eyes realizing their move.

Both came near Mira and Edward took a big teddy bear and Alex held her with both hands to stop her from moving. Edward started tickling her with the teddy bear making her scream louder not because of the tickles but because of her annoyance towards the teddy bear. She always stays away from such toys and doesn’t like to even touch their fur. It’s the worst punishment she could get. But Clara and Alina rolled their eyes to see such a creepy scene. Is the dinner party for their get-together? Alina mentally noted down to make Edward regret his decision to even invite Mira to their home.

Clara grabbed the bottle and spun it, suddenly stopping their laughter. Their laughing sound surely irritates her and she wants to smash everyone there. The bottle stops near Edward now.

“Truth” he chose knowing well how Alex can twist his fate if he chooses daring. It’s Alina’s birthday and he doesn’t want to do anything against her just for a game.

“Your marriage is an arranged marriage. So I want to know what Alina means to you now?” Clara asked. Edward smiled and looked at his love, who was very excited to hear anything from him.

“I married her because I love her not only because she is beautiful. I have seen her many times before whenever she accompanies her grandma to the hospital or whatsoever.” That was news to Alina. She widened her eyes with the revelation. She thought that Edward married her as he was drawn to her beauty. That’s what he mentioned.

“But I have fallen for her more when I came to know about her. She is just like a ” He paused and looked at Alina with so much admiration and love.

“She is just like a kid to me.” He ended with a small smile. Clara wiped her tears from the corner eyes. It’s purely a happy tear as she felt so special to have such a person in her friend’s life. Alina is really lucky to have Edward.

Everyone expected Alina to hug him after what he expressed. It’s not his word but his genuine gesture told him how much he adores his wife. But soon their eyes widened in shock when Alina threw a pillow toward him with such a force that made him fall backside

“You never mentioned that you knew me before our marriage?” Alina asked, crossing her arms while Edward gulped in fear.

“That’s not fair, Edward. You have never told her how you stalked her?” Alex adds fuel at the correct time, making Edward curse his fate.

“Not even that theatre incident where you beat up those guys just because they teased her?” Alex asked, gasping loudly. Edward looked at his friend with a look, is that even important to say right now?

“How about we end the game and go inside our room?” Alina asked with a sweet smile as Alex controlled his giggle. That’s true. Always expect the unexpected from your wife’s side.

“Doll, I think, it’s better than those guys who just love with one glance and marry the person to spoil both of their lives.” Clara voiced out with so much pain in her heart that made Alex stop smiling.

“This time, I too agree with her,” Mira replied, startling everyone.

“I mean, love is something which can’t happen instantly. We have to know the person, like the person’s nature and can adjust to his life easier.” Mira is very involved in the topic and that’s the end of Clara’s patience.

“It’s even not something which you need to snatch away from anyone.” Clara snapped at her. Now Edward regretted even planning this dinner. Alex didn’t bother to interfere as he was just noticing Clara’s words. What does she mean?

“If it’s easy to snatch, I guess it’s not even love in the first place” Mira didn’t want to stop there.

“Kids should be raised properly saying that if it’s not ours, we should leave it. If they are not properly educated like this by their parents, they would turn like you” Clara snapped at her harshly crossing her arms. Edward gulped visibly as he turned to his wife who is very pissed off now to see her birthday party turning into a war field.

“Alex, shall we go? I am not feeling well” Mira nudged Alex not to prolong the game. Clara spun the bottle and it stopped at her side. She clapped as if she won any race ignoring Alex and Mira.

“Dare!” She exclaimed happily and looked at all with a naughty smirk.

“Alex, let’s leave” Mira grabbed his arms but Alex stood there firmly as if calculating the daring for Clara. He wants to challenge her with something which she could think least of.

“Dance with me” Alex spoke instantly. Both were taken back to their first meeting where Alex asked for the same thing and they indeed shared a cute dance. Alex now wants to see if she can dance with him, forgetting the spark between them or accept her defeat? Didn’t she say that it’s not love between them in the first place? He wanted to test her statement with her.

“Alex” Mira gasped clutching his hand as tears started rolling down from her eyes. Whatever happened, Mira had the thought that Alex would never go back to her. But is she more important than her in his life?

“Dare should be something which you can’t do, right? She already said that there was no love between us and it should be easy for her now.” Alex reasoned his choice. Mira takes a few steps back in dismay. She wanted to break things there and show her displeasure but she couldn’t do so.

Everyone looked at Clara who had no expression on her face but she was glaring at Alex trying to see through his words.
