I understand that you guys want to read more from RK's POV, but I have planned it for later. Last update was a sort of gift for you all...so RK's POVs will be there when I feel they're in the flow of the story :P

PART 22
[Madhu's POV]

Later that night, I checked my emails. There was one from RK. Hurriedly, I opened it.

Hi,

Hope you're good? I reached safely. The international sim has some issues, it will get activated in a day or two. So we'll have to update each other through emails. Wondering about video chats? Well! The wifi connections are pretty bad here as well, so I guess Skype and Messengers won't work too. So, emails are the only option left. Emailed Maa also, but do check on her if she received it. Grace must have printed it for her. I wonder!

Anyways. How was your day? Hope you were safe. I was pretty worried about how you would carry on! Was Steven around? I'd like to know how he's working. He has just joined.

I am just leaving for my meeting. Its in an hour. Will catch you as soon as I am done for the day.

- RK


I blankly stared at the email. He considered me a 3-yr old toddler who couldn't walk without falling. Darn! I typed-


HEY!

I am good. How about you? Glad to know you reached safely! Although all my happiness to see you safe vanishes with the fact that you consider me a 3-yr old toddler who can't even take a step ahead without falling. FYI, I managed to walk the entire day without a cut or scratch. I'd be waiting for my Paramveer Chakra Award when you come back *rolling eyes* Steven was around, all the time like a bug. It was pretty irritating but he just wouldn't listen to me to leave me alone for a while. He is obeying your orders strictly. As for my work, I had a pretty good day. Maria came to know about our nuptial. She was surprised and happy. I even told her that I promised you to stay safe. *rolling eyes again*

I'll check on Maa to update her and let you know RK. And good luck with your meeting. Hope it goes as per your plans.

-Madhu

I folded the laptop screen back and sat looking at my empty house. It felt empty. After so many days, it was strange. Even after my parents went, RK had spent his evenings here. Tonight, it felt lonely and sad. I was accustomed to see him in my living area, giving me all those looks as if I was the most disaster prone thing on this planet worse than the pacific ring of fire. Those thoughts broke me into a soft laugh. My stomach cringed and blood rushed into my head. Something was happening to me, something over which I had no control. I don't know if those were the same feelings that one called love. How could I fall in love with a man in just 3 days of marriage. Oh well! I was already infatuated to him 6 years back. But I was immature and there was no way those feelings could have been real. Were they real? I questioned myself. "This is not happening. I think I have just started accepting him as a part of my life. That is it. Nothing else", I told myself many a times.

I stood up and trudged to the kitchen area and took out some coffee powder. This was one of those nights where I craved for coffee like oxygen. Back in my room, I folded my legs close to my chest and opened the curtains so that I could see the moonlight and the quiet city below me. It was beautiful but it was melancholy. I badly wanted some company. My phone buzzed near me. I checked. It was a voicemail from an international number.

"It is me, RK. That is my international number. Save it. It has been activated. Going in for a seminar."

His voice, deep and soulful. I pressed the play button numerous times only to hear his voice. I rested my head back on the wall and looked out to the sky. It was shining brightly under the moon. It was beautiful. After a while, I recorded a message for RK and sent it.

"Saved your number RK. And before I forget, I am checking with Maa after I send this to you. Have a good day RK. I'll be sleeping after I talk to Maa."

I pressed the "send" button and then rang up Kundra Mansion.

"Hello?", it was Marc. The guy who kept close to Maa for her security.

"Marc? This is Madhu"

"Good evening Mam! How may I help you?"

"Could you connect me to Maa? I mean Mrs Radha Kundra?"

"Just a second Mam!"

After a few seconds, Maa spoke

"Madhu?"

"Namaste Maa! Kaise ho aap?"

"Main theek hoon beta! Tum batao. Kuch chahiye toh nahi na?"

"Nai Maa. Just called to update you that RK reached safely and his SIM isn't working properly. So he will talk to you once the issue is resorted."

"Yes beta. Marc informed me."

"Ohh...", I bit my lip.

"Yeah. Will somehow got connected to Marc and informed him.

"Ohh...are you ok Maa? Taking your medicines on time right?"

"Yes honey. Marc is very particular."

"I can understand Maa. Its late. You should anyway sleep. I'll see you tomorrow before I leave for office. And I shall have my breakfast there."

"I'll be waiting Beta!"

"Bye Maa. Take care"

"Bye Madhu"

I took my coffee cup and put it in the sink and came back to my room. My phone had a voice mail.

"I hope Maa is doing fine. I checked with Will and he said that Maa is doing fine. Whenever you see this mail, do leave a reply. I am waiting for the organisers to begin. Have a sound sleep"

I could play his voice over and over again. Since I was awake, I replied him back.

"Yes. I am awake at the moment. Just had a talk with Maa. Will go have breakfast with her tomorrow. She is fine. Marc is taking good care of her.

Your organisers are late? Won't you expel them or something? Nobody makes RK wait?"

I chuckled and fell on my bed pulling the blanket. I was wide awake. Sleep had run away to some far off place and wasn't returning anytime soon. I lazily changed sides until my phone buzzed.

"It must be late there Madhu. Go to sleep otherwise you will fall sick. You must be working tomorrow too. So better get to sleep.

Yeah. The organisers are late. I will make a note and will take it to the concerned authorities. But you sound taunting. Are you taunting me?"

I giggled hearing the mail.

"Yes I have to work tomorrow but I cannot sleep. Its very frustrating. My eyes are wide awake.

Ohh yeah. That was a taunt, of the highest order."

I smiled and left my phone over the blanket. I tried to sleep closing my eyes and had almost slept when my phone vibrated.

"Go to sleep Madhubala. I am off to do something really productive. Good night."

That's it? I sighed as my eyes were heavy. I left my phone making a mental note to reply him next morning.

Next morning, I slept till 8:30. When I woke up, I saw a number of miss calls from Stacy. She must be outside knocking the door. And then I realised the real trouble. Steven must have made a mountain out of a mole hill. I rushed up hurriedly and opened the door, to find Stacy sitting in the lobby, really tensed for me.

"Mam! Are you alright??", she cried. I heaved a breath of relief. Steven wasnt around.

"Yes Stacy. I just didnt get up."

"Mam! I got so worried that I rung up Steven"

My eyes popped out. I thought, "Darn!!"

She entered my apartment as I held my forehead. This was going to be really hectic. As soon as RK comes to know of this, he will bang me up.

I checked my voice mails. There were none. That's when I remembered to reply him back.

"Good morning RK. How was your day?"

I pressed the send button and as soon as I came out, I saw Steven standing with 4 men in black.

"Mam! Are you ok?", he was tensed.

"Yes! Steven. I was just sleeping."

"We were so tensed. We got this place covered."

"You did what?"

"Yeah Mam! In case there was an emergency."

"Darn! And did you tell RK?"

"No Mam. Not yet. But we were going to do that before we set up the Plan B"

"Plan B?", I asked.

"To break into your house mam!", he said.

I gulped. This was eerie. All of this.

"Steven. Can you excuse me for a moment.", I begged and moved out in the balcony. All this was suffocating me. Like I had been chained down. This was not my life. I hated it like this, and there was something I needed to do about it.

"Mam! We have to go to RK Mansion", Steven spoke from the balcony door. I turned in surprise.

"Yeah. OMG. I so forgot. I'll just get ready.", I rushed into my room and after a shower, I took my keys and drove towards RK Mansion. All along the way, Steven and his cars followed me. They were 3 black Mercedes. I rolled my eyes realizing that I looked like a clown driving a cheap sedan with 3 luxurious cars following me.

At Kundra Mansion, I checked Maa's schedules about her medicines and vitamins and following that, we sat for breakfast. It was a quiet event. None of us spoke much. I bid farewell as soon as we finished because I was already running late.

In my cabin, I checked my phone. There was no mail. He must be sleeping or somewhere out. I sighed and continued my work going through interviews, write-ups and other sales sections.
