Chapter 2 : Her Version
Kathy knew he was staring at her. Of course she wasn’t dumb. He had followed her near the jewelry store as well. Couldn’t he be less obvious? Quick glance and she already had a judgement for him. Tall, fair and handsome. Extra bonus for not wearing those low hanging saggy jeans. Now that she was cautious of his presence it was hard to concentrate on shopping. She picked up a neck piece randomly and started bargaining. The shopkeeper wouldn’t agree but she wanted to come out as a strong-willed person now that she had an audience. She stood there adamant till the shopkeeper gave in. Wow!!! That was the first time she could bargain her way. This guy definitely brought out the best in her. He is a keeper!!! She laughed at her own thought. Nevertheless she was extremely pleased and that reflected in her face.
3 years into the relationship, he could still manage to give her those butterfly feelings in her stomach. Being around Ryan meant the world to her. He was the most caring person she had ever met. It was genuine and she could feel it. He was her go to person for everything. She just knew they were meant to be together. He always brought out the best of her. To be fair, the worst as well and she couldn’t help it. She was trying hard not to complicate things between them but seemed to fail anyways. Somewhere the chord wasn’t tuning in perfectly as it used to be.
R : I got you something.
K : Really? What is it?
R: Close your eyes. No cheating!
K : Done. Now faaaast please.
R : Okay! Okay! Here, take.
K : Ahan, this dress is gorgeous baby. You didn’t have to buy it though.
R : Of course I had to. It’s valentines today and you would look like a dream in this.
K : Thanks babes for the gesture but it must have cost you a bunch. You could have just asked me if I needed something. I would have bought something useful.
R : I don’t understand. You don’t like the dress? You’re happy. Right?
K : Of course I am. As long as I have you with me. I am always happy . What I meant was you don’t have to buy me something every time to fix my mood. A rose would work too.
R : You’re confusing. If I give you a present you’re not happy and if I don’t give you anything, you’re upset. I just don’t understand you anymore. I need to freshen up my mind. Going out for a walk.
There it was again. The temper. Should have just kept quite. But this happened every time. He thought buying her stuffs would make things perfectly all right. Doesn’t he understand it’s not the things that he buys for her that makes her happy. She just wants to spend some time together. Just the day before, he went out for a team dinner and he informed her at the last moment. He knew after a long days work he was the only thing she was looking forward to, didn’t even ask why her mood was off. He must have thought she was throwing a tantrum again but off late she felt he was never there when she needed him. She was losing herself. She didn’t want to. Expectations hurt. Isn’t it?
Of course she loved presents but he would rather cover up an argument by buying present rather than dealing it upfront with her. All she wanted was them to talk. She believed if you’re in love you should talk openly about your feelings. If something is bothering you let the other person know rather than shutting it down in your heart. This outspoken nature of her was getting in the way now and she couldn’t help control it. Ryan would always end up taking out double meaning for something which she didn’t even mean. Since when did things become so complicated? She wasn’t doing something wrong. Or was she?
Maybe things would be different if she stopped reacting to small things. She really wanted this relationship to work. But to make it work they both had to be on the same page first.
Love stories are meant to be sweet but what we see is just the first layer of thousand emotions that couples intend us to see. It’s time to see what lies beneath in perfecting a relationship. Up for an unconventional ride?
Read what happens next in Chapter 3 : Done And Dusted ( Click Me)
Will they ever come together to sort out their differences or will they let it go and bottle up their feelings till something big comes up. If you don’t already know bottled feelings cannot stay put for long . Before it bursts and questions their love, time will tell whether they are Trapped In Love Or Wrapped In Love?
With the hope that Love wins this time too,
I Heart You All ❤

Nice story dear. A different perspective
Thank you. Hope you liked it. 🙂
💓
😍
The best gift that I concluded after reading both the versions is “Time”. It’s the only gift that your loved ones want. Something which is exceptional and quite scarce in this present world.
True. That would be the best gift but again that’s where the issue is. Ryan thinks he is already spending enough time whereas for Kathy it’s not enough. Expectations and then reality both should fall into places nowadays.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. 🙂
To read some good love stories is my all time favourite task, enjoying this story much..m desperately waiting for the next part
Thank you so much Neha. It means a lot.Will be back with the next part soon 😍
This is so good. Really enjoyed it.
Thank you much 🙂 That’s a relief.
It’s a series? That’s cool.
Curious to read what happens next.
Didn’t plan for a series though. I just couldn’t find a proper justification to their story yet and didn’t want to end on this note. So I thought I better release the series in parts. Hope that works 🙂
Yes, I think ending it here would have been a pity.
Exactly what I thought. 🙂
Loved the story. You write beautiful – bottled up feelings in my opinion is a caged feeling – let it flow, let it be out 😊🌸
Firm believer of the same too. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Means a lot 🙂
My absolute pleasure dear. Stay charming
Sure🙂
😊🌸
Loved the story! It’s beautiful!❤️
That put a completely different perspective on his version… Well, it is a famous saying that men & women come from different planets!
That’s true. Maybe we can never know what’s going on in their minds. 💁🏻 That’s the mystery.
Will there be a continuation to this? Love reading it!
Yes Melanie. Will be posting the new post up soon. 🙈 Thank you so much for coming back to read this❤
I like your style of writing. I’ll keep my eyes for the next part. You should keep those and make a book out of it. 😊
Really? You think so? Thank you so much for the encouraging words. I am in fact in mid of writing a book but that’s a different story line. (And it’s such a long process!!!) 😂🙂
… when you have more parts.
That makes sense. Will definitely try to combine all the parts 🙂
You’re welcome. I mean it. 🙂
I’m pretty sure you could turn the story as a thriller type of book.
That’s a great suggestion! I will think of turning the story into one 😃 Thank you so much. You’re the sweetest😍
You’re welcome 😀
❤
You have such a wonderful talent and this story was lovely
Thank you so much. I love your stories too😍
Good story. Shows how two people look at the same situation from different perspectives. Works for love and politics too, and most people would much rather read a love story.
Exactly! No two people are same and it takes great understanding and patience to sustain a relationship. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.🤗
How are you
Hey! I am fine. Thanks for asking. How are you? 🙂
So cool
Did you follow my new blog?
Yes! I most definitely did 🙂
Oh ok
