As Kumkum opens her eyes, she finds herself being taken care by Sumit..He smiles as she holds his finger weakly..😳
"Dekho...hum kahaan hain"He caresses her forehead lovingly..😳
"Ghar?.."She looks around and feels better..😛
"Yes..we are in our own world now.."He kisses her forehead..😳
"Kaisa mehsoos kar rahi ho?.."He kisses her palm..
"Hmm..(she nods lightly)..Sumit?.."She clutches his kurta..😕
"Haan?..kya munna?.."He holds her hands..
She immediately hugs him tightly by his waist and closes her eyes..
"Munna?.."He pats her back.."Kya hua ..?"😳
"Mujhe chod kar nahin jana.."Her sentence made him worry again..She was repeating the sentence uneasily in her sleep too..😭
"Kahin nahin jaa raha tumhara sumit.."He lies adjacent to her and takes her in his arms..😳
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
"Kumkum!!..Munna?..yahaan kya kar rahe ho?.."Sumit sits next to her on the cane swing..
"Huh?..kya?.."Kumkum wipes her tears immediately, getting out of her thoughts..😕
sumit smiles and envelopes his arms around her.."Kuch nahin kaha.."
she closes her eyes and bends her head on his shoulder..
"Subah ka program hai..ki we are going to the beach..phir yahan jo Malaysia shopping festival chal raha hai..wahaan jayenge..okie?.."He kisses her head..😳
"Hmm.."She says thoughtfully..
"Still feeeling tired?.."Sumit caresses her back..
"nahin..theek hun ab.."She replies..😳
He doesn't say anything else but, lovingly storkes her hair..
Last 10 days had been rough for her..Physical pain and emotional stress had made her very uncertain and under-confident..He always made sure to support her whenever she felt distressed..They had reached Malaysia yesterday only on Tina and riddhima's advice..
"Kum.."He looks at her and smiles..she was looking like a cute 5 year old baby, sleeping with her hand clutching his shirt..😳
He smiles and takes out his cellphone..smiling naughtily, he clicks her pic..
"sumit?.."She wakes up.."ye..??.."😕
"My baby.."He kisses her cheeks.."Andar chal kar sona hai..?..?chalo.."😳
"Nahin..wo..hum bahar jaane wale they na..?."She didn't want to dissapoint him..
"nahin yaar..formality kyun kar rahi ho?..jab mann hoga tab chalna..tum thaki hui lag rahi ho abhi toh.."He wraps his arms around her..😊
"Nahin nahin..woh..bas..aise hi aankh lag gayi..chalo..main ready ho jati hun..."she gets up..
He smiles and nods.."ok..ready ho jao.."😳
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
"What is this made of?.."Sumit asks the baker, pointing towards a pastry.."Is it eggless?.."
"No sir..this one is eggless.."He points to a chocolate pastry..😊
"Ok..then..pack 4 pieces.."He smiles.."Kumkum?..aur koi flav..Kumkum..??"He turns around..
He finds her looking out of the glass door, staring at a young couple cajoling a newborn baby..Sumit goes near her and touches her face.."main pooch raha tha..aur koi flavour.."😕
she looks at him with moist eyes..as if pleading something..she runs into his arms instantly..😭
"Kumkum?.."He hugs her tightly.."Pagal..tum bhi na..chalo..idhar dekho..I've bought the chocolate ones..accha..ek eggless mein black forest bhi hai aao dekho.."He wipes the tiny tears in her eyes..😭
"Dekho idhar..aissa karte hain..isse bhi pack karva dete hain..ok?..chalo..u taste a piece here..bhi pack karva lena.."😳
The baker packs three pices and servs one for kumkum with extra chocolate sause..😉
Sumit feeds her..though she doesn't feel like eating, he makes her eat it ..
"chalo..chalein?.."He asks..
"Hmm.."She nods..😳
Life was coming back to normal and sumit wanted to make sure, it happens soon..He pledged to always be there for her, whenever she wanted him..But, the bitterness of her past was sure to make an imprint inside her tender heart..
Sumit's heart cried every time he saw her cry but he vowed to maintain the normalcy.But, little did he know, what God had planned for them.
..."chupa hai khazaana kismat ki reth mein..yaa andheron mein bas dard chupaa hai..."
