CHAPTER 14
[NOTE: The inverted commas disappeared again. bear with it, and also, if there are any typos.]
Anusha who sat completely ready in a bride's attire, stood up happily, to hug her most favourite cousin, Nisha, as soon as she saw her. "Your look has changed a lot... pehle to in sab kapdo se hi chid tha na tujhe... ab kya hogaya... Itni hot kaise hogayi tu...? Anusha mumbled in disbelief. "Aur to aur... tune to bataye Bina shadi bhi karli... jiju tujhe itne kya pasand aagaye ki tujhse control bhi nahi hua...? She asked, and didn't let Nisha speak even a word. Nisha blushed at her questions. "Jiju bhi bohot hot hai kya? She asked, to which Nisha nodded. "Bohot! She mumbled, and they started laughing, as they broke the hug. "Waise Jiju kahan hai mere? Naam kya hai unka? Anusha asked. "Kabir Singh Rathore! Nisha said. "Kya royal name hai yaar... naam hi itna hot Hai, to mere jiju aur kitne hot honge... Anusha said, dreamily. "Bahar uski class lag rahi hogi ... Nisha said and they chuckled. Some knocked the other door, which was an entrance into a third room. "Bhabhi, Andar ajae kya? Mom ne ye kuch bheja hai aapkelie... Someone said, standing behind the door. "Arre haan, Ajit, aajao, the door is open! Anusha said. Anusha smiled, as her brother-in-law walked into the room, and kept some things on the bed. Nisha was facing the other way. "Nisha... Isse milo! Ye Samar ka chota bhai hai...Ajit, Anusha said. Nisha turned to face him, and what she saw in front of her, shook her up, totally. His cunning eyes grew wide in astonishment, but he faked a smile towards her. "Ohh...Nisha, tum yahan par? He asked. Nisha fumbled to talk. Anusha introduced her to him as her cousin. He forwarded his hand for a hand shake with her, and Nisha hesitantly moved her hand into his. "Tum dono jante ho ek doosre ko? Anusha asked. "Same college... Ajit said and smiled, cunningly. Ajit was the one who made the video, when she got intimate with Kabir. Nisha was not able to face them. She was scared that the things were going to be out in front of her family. She was scared to face them. And what if, Kabir sees him here. She knew that he won't be able to control. "Anusha...I'll just leave... Kabir wait kar raha hoga meri... She said, and turned to leave. "Arre mujhe bhi to milwaade Kabir se...Kabse wait kar rahi hu main... Anusha said, in annoyance, but Nisha just blankly took steps towards the door, when Kabir walked in, and Nisha collided with him. Kabir caught her by her shoulders as she was about to fall. "Dhyaan kahan hai tera? Kya hua, Nishu? Kabir mumbled slowly. "Kabir...kuch nahi, chal yahan se... Nisha said, holding his hand. "Kabir jiju! Anusha called him, and he looked at her and smiled. Kabir walked towards her, leaving Nisha behind. Kabir turned his head to the other person standing beside Anusha, and he got rooted to the ground. He knew now, why Nisha tried to stop him. He was angry seeing Ajit there, but he didn't want to make it all a mess since Anusha was there. Nisha walked and stood beside him. Ajit decided to leave, as someone called him, but before leaving he looked at Kabir and smirked.
"Nisha... Jiju sachme bohot handsome hai yaar... OMG, like wow! She looked at Kabir, and said in disbelief. Nisha smiled looking at him, and then at her. Nisha held his hand, and pressed it a little, asking him to stay normal. Kabir smiled looking at Anusha. "Kya hua? Tum dono itna blank look kya de rahe ho? Anusha asked in confusion. "Kuch nahi hua hai... chill... Nisha said, and smiled. "Ab dekhliya apne jiju ko? She asked. "Nisha yaar... tu to bohot chupi rustam nikli... like tune itna handsome ladka dhoond liya.. aur kuch bataya bhi nahi... and tum dono saath me kitne achhe lag rahe ho yaar... Anusha said, dreamily. Kabir blushed. "Ab main mila hu isko to hum ache hi lagenge na saath me... yahi to mera charm hai.. He said, and they chuckled. "Abhi na tum dono se mujhe bohot sari baatein Karni hai... aur samar se bhi milwaana hai... shadi ke baad pakka milwaungi, she said, happily. "Tu ye bata ki mere jiju kaise hai waise ? Nisha asked. "Uska to kya hi bataun main... best hi hai ek dum... bohot pyaar karta hai mujhse... aur kya chahie? Anusha said, and smiled. "Congratulations, yaar! Nisha said with a huge smile, and hugged her. Nisha and Kabir left the room, leaving Anusha to prepare herself for the wedding. Nisha asked Kabir to calm down, and not think about it anymore, but he knew that just another move from Ajit, and Kabir was going to kill him. Kabir held her hand and took her downstairs, as her cousins were nowhere to be seen. "Kabir... Dekh, tu kuch nahi karega ab... bas hogaya! Nisha said, and Kabir hesitantly nodded.
"Chal, let's drink something..., I am thirsty, Kabir said, and they walked towards the bar counter. Ajit stood there, but they tried to ignore him. Kabir went to order mocktails for himself and Nisha, leaving her to wait for him, while Ajit, who stood there leaning to the bar counter, walked up to Nisha, as soon as Kabir left. "Aur, Miss.Bhabhi-ki-bold-behen, how are you doing? Ajit asked an uncomfortable Nisha. Nisha didn't reply and waited for Kabir. Kabir looked at them from a distance and felt irritated. He took the glasses, and walked up to Nisha. Kabir kept the glasses on the table beside them, and stood between Ajit and Nisha, and gave him a warning look. Ajit laughed. "You can't even touch me, Kabir! You don't know that I can ruin this wedding... Ajit said, confidently. He deliberately tried to provoke Kabir into messing with him, whereas Nisha tried to control Kabir. Nisha came and stood between them facing Kabir. She placed her hands on his chest, and asked him to move back. Kabir's anger just aggravated. "Whatta sexy back! And the mark just below your shoulder bone makes it even sexier... I guess, I missed something! Just give me your address, I'll make sure not to miss the next opportunity... He said, and grinned. Kabir moved Nisha aside by placing his hand over her arm. He removed his blazer and wore it across her shoulders. He insidiously moved towards Ajit, while Nisha tried to stop him. "Kabir, no, stop! He is trying to provoke you! Nisha told him, but he was nowhere interested to listen to her words, as he held Ajit by his collar, and started beating him up. "Nisha, you cannot stop me! I will kill him today! Kabir yelled angrily, as he punched and kicked Ajit, but Ajit did not revert to him. It was obvious that Ajit was doing this purposely to look innocent. A crowd gathered there, including the bride-groom, and families. They tried to stop Kabir, who was uncontrollably beating up Ajit, and Nisha struggled to stop him. She had tears in her eyes. She knew that if something happens to Ajit, they'll all blame Kabir and he'll have to suffer. Umesh, Saurav and Suketu ran to them, and dragged Kabir away from Ajit. Ajit was lying over the floor, all pale, and bleeding from everywhere. He was not dead yet, fortunately. He could speak. The groom, who happens to be Ajit's brother, came and took him into his embrace. "Bhai! This Kabir tried to kill me..., because of a misunderstanding that I misbehaved with his wife..., He said, in a weak, shaky, voice. "It was not a misunderstanding! He actually misbehaved with my wife! Kabir yelled from the other side of the room. "I'll make sure that you pay for doing this to my brother, Kabir! Samar yelled.
The matter escalated so quickly, that within an hour, the wedding was cancelled, Ajit was shifted to a hospital, and Kabir, was arrested for almost killing Ajit. Nisha, along with her cousins, was at the police station, trying to plead the inspector to leave Kabir. Kabir was behind the bars, still in a guilt that he had not killed Ajit. Samar and his father were here, and so was Anusha, and Anusha's parents. The police went to interrogate Kabir, and he was beaten up by them. Nisha was scared to death, and her mind refused to work in this situation. She cried inconsolably. She dialled up Viraj's number, and called him to the police station immediately. He reached there in no time with Vasundhara, and his lawyer. His lawyer spoke some laws, which didn't work since the matter was so serious, that Ajit had to be admitted into a hospital. Viraj's mind was messed up, for he was not able to save his brother. The constable came and took Nisha's statement, who told her everything that had happened there. She didn't reveal anything about the video thing, because that would just mess the things more. Nisha went to Samar and his father, and told them that she needed to talk something to them. They walked out of the police station for a moment, and Nisha told them everything that Ajit did to them, and that they also have filed a police complaint, and that once they get a proof against Ajit, he will be arrested. Samar was stunned for a moment. He didn't say another word, and walked into the police station, and withdrew the complaint against Kabir. "I will withdraw that complaint, if you withdraw this complaint! Nisha said, what she never expected to say. "And you will never talk about what he did, to you, too! Ajit's father said. Nisha nodded blankly. She just wanted Kabir to be free from this mess. She didn't care that they weren't going to get a justice for what happened to them in Pratapgarh. She just wanted Kabir, and the rest was fine. Samar's Father asked Samar to withdraw the complaint against Kabir, to which Samar replied that he already did. He held his father's hand and they walked out of the police station, sat in their car, and drove off. Samar was devastated. His marriage to his loved one was broken, because of one mistake by his brother, but still, he decided to choose Ajit, over Anusha. He chose the wrong over the right. Anusha, on the other hand, was angry, that her marriage broke, because of her most favourite and trusted cousin. She had never expected this happening to her.
Nisha walked into the police station, and saw that Kabir was released. He was bruised, which indicated that he was beaten. She ran to him, and jumped into his arms, and cried her heart out. Kabir kissed on the top of her head, and stroked his hand over her back, and tried to console Nisha by talking the sweetest possible things to her. "Kabir, tu pagal hai kya? Tujhe kuch hojaata to? She yelled at him. He calmed her, by pulling her into a tight hug. Anusha and her parents looked at them with utmost disgust. "Nisha... I think you should talk to Anusha! Kabir said, as he noticed this. Nisha nodded, and walked towards Anusha, but she just took her steps backward. She raised her hand towards Nisha, and asked her to stop. "I just hate you... Anusha mumbled, as she turned to leave along with her parents. "You'll never be happy... Her maasi said, and walked after her heartbroken daughter. This broke Nisha to no extent. Nisha fell to the ground and cried, and her cousins and Kabir ran to console her. Kabir took her into his embrace, and Viraj hugged both of them together, and they were hugged by the cousins. They left the place after the formalities were completed and went to the Gangwal house.
**********
Silence was spread across the Gangwal house. Everything depended on Dadaji's decision now, though they were not told about the video incident. He was to give his verdict on Kabir, who stood in the middle of the courtyard, all bruised, and highly misunderstood. His Lakshmi maa was angry with him, as because of him, her most cherished relationship with her sister broke today. "The Rajput family is no more related to the Gangwal family! The old man from the Rajput family announced over the phone. Their family relations were broken. Nemichand Gangwal was angry, and so were the others. "Ye ladka jabse humaari family me aaya hai, tabse hum kuch na kuch kho hi rahe hai... Ye hai hi panauti... Viren yelled, standing behind his father. Kabir felt bad listening to the last word that came out from Viren's mouth. Mohan and Ramesh were too dumbstruck to speak. "Kya zaroorat thi tujhe us ladke ko maarne ki? Viren asked, or rather, shouted. Kabir was silent. Dadu asked Viren to be silent. Nisha stood, hiding herself in Dolly's arms, and cried. She feared any harmful decision by her Dadu. "Jo kuch bhi hua hai... wo acha nahi hua hai... Kabir ne jo galti kari, uski wajah se Anusha ki shadi hi nahi, balki Rajput parivar se humaara rishta bhi toot gaya hai... Kabir looked up, as Dadaji started to speak. "Aur Kabir ne jo kiya hai, uske liye humaari taraf se yehi saza hogi, ki Gangwal parivar, Kabir se apna rishta Tod de... aur aaj ke baad, is ghar ka koi bhi sadasya Kabir se koi talukh na rakhe ... He said, looking at Nisha. Kabir and Nisha were hearing the worst words of their life. "Dadu, Nisha meri wife hai! Kabir yelled, in horror. He raised his hand and asked Kabir to stop, and not speak further. "Dadu aap mujhe is tarah usse alag nahi kar sakte... Kabir didn't stop saying, but the old man stood up from his seat and walked into his room.
Nisha ran to Kabir and hugged him tightly. She cried, and just cried. Viren and Mohan came, and threw him out of the house, while Nisha tried to stop them. "Kabir... Kabir... She yelled, trying to stop him. Viraj came to Kabir's rescue as Viren started beating him up, as Kabir was not ready to listen. Nisha hugged Kabir tightly, not letting him go. "No one can separate us, Nisha. No one. Kabir said, cupping her face. "Kabir, abhi humaara yahan se jaana hi better hoga! Viraj said, holding his arm. Kabir nodded, and pecked Nisha on her lips one last time, and wiped her tears, before leaving. Nisha cried, as he left. She was shattered. Dolly and Kirti held her hand and took her inside the house. The doors were closed, creating a wall between Nisha, and her Kabir.
********
Days passed, since that incident, that broke so many relationships. Mainly, Nisha and Kabir were the ones who suffered the most. They were separated without them having any fault in the whole scenario. No one listened to what they wanted to speak. Nisha's phone was confiscated, for she tried to contact Kabir several times, even though she was unsuccessful. They had not talked to, or seen, each other for weeks now. Things were becoming difficult for them. She was in a house arrest, and his entry into the house was banned. They were legally wedded, and Kabir thought of using this fact to get his wifey back, but he could not hurt the Gangwals even in his dreams.
The chirpy, bubbly, Nisha was gone, as this Nisha, who had cut all her ties with her family, and kept herself locked in her room had taken her place. Dolly was the only one to whom she would talk to, and the rest of the time, she would be sleeping so that no one could try to talk to her. Her mother used to feel guilty seeing her condition, but then she could not oppose to her father-in-law's decision. Ramesh tried to, but his words couldn't survive before his father's order. Her cousins, who were totally against this, were strictly restricted by Viren, to help Nisha. They were helpless.
Karan shifted back to Jaipur, as promised to Nisha. The first thing he did after that, was going to the Gangwals' to meet his best-friend, Nisha. He was devastated seeing how things had changed, just in a matter of a few days. He tried to talk to Nisha, but she hesitated initially, but later she told him everything that had happened. Her cousins were also there. Nisha had spoken up after so many days. She never told anyone that Ajit and the guy from their college, who made that video were the same. They understood how broken Nisha was. She and Kabir had no fault. "Nisha... Kabir se baat karegi? Karan asked, as he placed his hand on her shoulder, and looked into her eyes. Nisha nodded looking at him. Her eyes were filled with tears. He took out his phone, dialled Kabir's number, and gave it to her. She happily held the phone against her ear, and wiped her tears. Karan and her cousins smiled, looking at her. They all walked out, as she began talking to Kabir. "Kabir! She mumbled, as he took the call. Her voice felt like a magic to him, soothing all the pain that he had been living with. "Nisha, He whispered, and sobbed, from the other side. She gasped in relief, listening to his voice after so many days. "Kaisa hai? She asked, with utmost difficulty. He closed his eyes, and tears rolled down his cheeks. "Achha nahi hu, Nisha. Tere Bina neend nahi aati mujhe... He mumbled. Tears continued to roll down her cheeks as well. "Sab theek ho jaega, Kabir! She said. "I miss you, Nisha... he mumbled, "I miss you too, Kabir..., mujhe tujhe kuch aur bhi batana hai... and as she was about to speak further, the phone was snatched from her hand. She yelled at the person standing before her. "Mujhe usse baat Karna hai, tauji ! Mujhe phone dedo ... Nisha said to Viren. "Tumko main kitni bhi baar bolu, samajh nahi aata na? Viren yelled angrily. His voice was so loud, that it echoed in the whole house. Karan, Her cousins and her parents rushed into her room, immediately, followed by Dadi, Vimla, and Roopan. "Ye phone kiska hai? Viren angrily asked, looking at the cousins. Karan came ahead, and took it from him. "Aaj ke baad ye galti dubaara mat Karna.. Viren said, and he nodded. "Aur tum log... aaj ke baad nisha ke kamre ke aas paas bhi mat dikhna mujhe... he warned the cousins as well, and they moved out of the room immediately. Nisha sat on her bed, wiping her angry tears that refused to stop. Ramesh tried to control the situation. Viren gave a final warning to Nisha, and stormed out of her room. Ramesh felt helpless, and walked out of the room after Viren. Lakshmi was left alone with her daughter.
"Nishu! She mumbled, placing her hand over Nisha's shoulder. "Maa! Aap please jaiye, mujhe apse koi bhi baat nahi karni hai... Nisha said. "Par ek baar meri baat to sunle ... Main maanti hu ki tere saath galat hua hai...par.. She couldn't continue speaking, and Nisha covered her mouth with her hands, and ran into the washroom. Lakshmi went after her, but the door of the washroom was closed. She could only hear Nisha coughing, and retching. She kept banging her hand on the door, in an extreme worry. "Nishu... beta... kya hua hai? She asked, standing there. Nisha vomited, and flushed it down. She went and stood before the mirror, and looked at her weak face, as she placed her hands over the rim of the wash basin. Her eyes reflected her helplessness, pain, and anger. She was yearning for him. Lakshmi kept yelling continuously from outside, but she did not reply. She slowly moved out of the washroom, as Lakshmi kept looking at her, trying to understand what had happened to her. Nisha just went to her bed, and collapsed on it. She hugged a pillow close to herself, and curled up her legs towards her chest. She felt weak. She felt her head spun. "Nishu... Kya hua hai? Bata to sahi! Lakshmi asked, placing her hand over her head, caressing it. "Mujhe kuch nahi hua hai... aap please jao yaha se! Nisha mumbled weakly. Her mother felt bad. "Nishu, please agar koi baat hai to bataade! Lakshmi said one last time, as she waited for her daughter to reply. Nisha didn't reply, and just dozed off due to exhaustion. Lakshmi tugged her in a comforter and switched on the AC, before she left, closing the door. "Kabir... Nisha mumbled in her sleep.
**********
The door of the Gangwal house was pushed open with a huge force, and someone entered the house, to witness the house impregnated with darkness all over. It was eleven-thirty in the night, but the doors weren't still closed, fortunately, or unfortunately. Some glass bottle swung, back and forth in the person's hand, as he kept walking ahead, aimlessly. He stumbled a few times with the living-room furniture, but was able to hold himself, and continue ahead. He could not calculate where he must go, for he was not in his proper senses. He was drunk. He kept blabbering some nonsense, as he just kept walking. His moves rather looked like some steps of an unknown dance form. He walked abnormally through the corridor, stumbling, and just like a totally drunk person does. He stood before a door, and tried concentrating on it, as he tried to remember why he had come here. He pushed open the door, and stood at the doorway, trying to steady himself, as he saw a silhouette in the dark sitting over a chair, in the middle of the room.
"Kaun hai? A person with an old, hoarse tone, spoke, as he took his thick-framed, spectacles, that lied on the teapoy just beside his rocking chair. He tried adjusting his spectacles over his eyes, and looked at the tall, dark, figure, that stood at doorway holding some bottle kind of a thing in his hand. "Arre bhai, kaun hai is waqt yahan? He roared again. " Singham... The person, who stood at the door, mumbled. The eldest Gangwal stood up from his place, and took no time to switch on the light of the room. "Kabirrr... He yelled angrily, at the person-not-in-his-senses, standing before him. Kabir's eyes were fully red. He was not able to stand straight for even a second, as he kept stumbling due to the effect of the alcohol, that was trying to control his body. He rubbed his eyes, as he tried to concentrate on the person standing before him. "Tum yahan kya Karne aye ho? He yelled again, alerting the other family members. Kabir pressed his index finger against his lips and asked him to stay calm.
"Aaj aapko meri baat sunni hi padegi... aap mere saath aisa nahi kar sakte... Kabir mumbled, with a great difficulty. "Aap mujhe aise door nahi kar sakte meri biwi se... he said, as he placed his hands over Dadaji's shoulders, and tried to make him sit in his place. "Tum pi kar aaye ho, Kabir! Abhi ke abhi nikal jao yahan se... Nemichand Gangwal warned him. Viren, Mohan and Ramesh, who occupied the nearby rooms, were soon there, with their wives. Saroj, who was sleeping in the same room, woke up due to the disturbance. They were all shocked, seeing Kabir in this state, at this place, and at this time. They all started yelling at Kabir. He threw the bottle of alcohol in his hand, against the floor, with so much force, that it broke into several pieces, spilling its content over the floor. It silenced them all. "Aap sab chup rahiye! Mujhe is old man se baat Karna hai... jisne meri wifey ko mere se door kardia ... he said, pointing his index finger at the angry old man standing before him. "Aapko pata hai... wo jab bhi roti hai na... mujhe idhar...idhar dard hota hai.. He said, pointing his finger towards his heart, as the furious Nemichand Gangwal looked at him. Dadaji slapped him hard, over his face, and ordered Viren to throw Kabir out of the house, and Kabir started yelling at the family. "Aap log mujhe usse aise door nahi kar sakte... we are legally married... He shouted his lungs out. He started yelling her name. Ramesh tried to stop Kabir. The brawl that was going on in the house, woke up the other members the house as well. Nisha understood that he was here, as she could hear him calling out her name. She climbed off her bed, and ran towards the living room of the house, from where the noises were coming.
She ran downstairs, and stood, taking the support of a pillar, as she looked at him after so many weeks, and that too like this. She couldn't hold her tears. And the fact that he was being beaten up by Viren and involuntarily, by Mohan, gave her a heartache. She ran to him, and stood between Kabir and Viren. She pleaded her Tauji to not beat him. "Tauji, please! I swear, Kabir wapas ye sab kuch nahi karega... please! She pleaded before him. Kabir wiped his tears and pulled her into a back hug. "Nishu... please mere saath chal... I can't live without you... He whispered into her ear, and his tone expressed his pain. She wrapped her hand around his neck and said, "Kabir... please, tu abhi yahan se chale ja... please. He loosened his grip over her, and made her face himself. "Please, aise mat Bol... please , tu bhi chal mere saath..., he said, and cried. "Kabir..., hum sab kuch theek kardenge... we'll soon be together... she cupped his face, and tried to console him. Kabir hugged her again, and cried.
This scene was painful for the family, while Dadaji and Viren were even angrier. "Viren! Tum dekh kya rahe ho... nikaalo is ladke ko yahan se bahar ... Dadaji ordered. "Ghar ke damaad ke saath aisa bartaav karna theek nahi hai... Dadi interrupted, but was silenced by Dadaji. Viren who was annoyed, pulled Nisha and Kabir apart from each other, and started beating up Kabir. He pushed Nisha aside, as she tried intervening. Nisha fell on the floor, but she saved herself from getting hurt. She stood up placing her arm across her belly. Her cousins tried to stop her, but she again intervened. "Tauji, please! Nisha yelled, from where she stood. She went towards them, and stood hugging Kabir. "Please, tauji, Kabir ko mat maaro! Wo papa ban'ne waala hai... please tauji..., please! Nisha said, as she wiped her tears, and controlled the stumbling Kabir by holding him in her embrace. Everyone's eyes turned towards Nisha, immediately, as soon as she revealed this. "Main pregnant hu... I have his child in my womb...Mere liye nahi, to mere baby ke liye, please! She pleaded her Tauji. Kabir was not in a state to understand anything, as he continued blabbering something. He was totally out of his control. Viren held Kabir by his collar, and threw him out of the house, not doing anything else. Kabir couldn't control this force, and was almost about to fall, when at the nick of the time, Viraj got hold of him. "Ye kya badtameezi hai, Mr.Gangwal! Viraj yelled at Viren, seeing his brother's condition. "Aayiye! Aap hi ka intezaar tha! Abhi pi kar tumhaare bhai ne hungama kiya hai... ab tum bhi Karlo... Tum dono bhaiyo ko to baat baat par tamasha Karne ki aadat hi hai... Viren said. Viraj was angry. "Agar wo pi kar aaye the, to unhe is tarah se maarne ki zaroorat nahi thi! Wo pareshaan the, isliye unhone ye sab kiya tha... warna aap bhi jaante hai ki wo kabhi nahi Peete! Viraj spoke. Viraj embraced his heart-broken, drunk, brother in his arms, and continued. "Aap nahi jaante , Mr. Gangwal, ki aap sab kuch bina jaane kya galti kar rahe hai... Viraj said. "Viraj, tum abhi ke abhi yahan se apne bhai ko leke niklo... Viren ordered, angrily. Nisha intervened, and said, "Sir, please aap Kabir ko lekar chale jaiye yahan se... aur please, uska dhyaan rakhna... Nisha said, holding her hands together in front of Viraj. Viraj felt helpless in front of Nisha. He nodded, and left, taking his brother, without creating a nuisance.
Nisha collapsed to the floor and cried. "Kal hi ek ache vakeel ko bulaa kar ye divorce ka procedure pata karo, Viren! Dadaji ordered and walked back into his room angrily. Viren had nothing else to say, and walked into his room. Lakshmi and the cousins walked towards Nisha, and consoled her. They took her back to her room, and made her lie down on the bed. The cousins left as Lakshmi asked them to. Nisha was crying. "Mujhe bataya kyu nahi? Lakshmi asked, as Nisha rested her head in her lap, and she caressed her hair. "Aapko bataake kya faayda hota, maa, aap bhi to gussa hi ho na mere Kabir se? Bina kuch jaane... Bina kuch samjhe, aapne bhi ye maan liya, ki Kabir ne Ajit ko bina kisi wajah ke maara hai... jab ki aap ye baat ache se jaante ho ki galti se bhi kabhi, he can't harm anyone... Nisha said, as the tears continued to escape her eyes. " Tune baat bhi to kabhi nahi bataayi na... Lakshmi said. "Main kabhi nahi bata paayi... , She said, while Lakshmi was confused. "Kya baat hai Nishu, Bata na... Lakshmi asked. Nisha sat straight in front of her mother, and hesitated telling her anything. "Nishu...bata mujhe... Lakshmi insisted. "Maa, jab hum abhi trip par gaye the..., wo Ajit aur uske dost bhi humaare saath the... Nisha started and looked at her confused mother, as she continued. Lakshmi's eyes grew wider in shock after listening to the facts that Nisha spoke. She realised that Kabir wasn't wrong in beating up Ajit. "Itna sab kuch hogaya, aur tu mujhe ab bata rahi hai, Nisha? Lakshmi asked. Her eyes were moist. "Maa! Mujhe Kabir ke paas jaana hai! Nisha said, and hugged her mother. "Sab theek hojaega, Nishu! She said, as she caressed her daughter's hair. "Maa...mujhe Kabir ko humaare baby ke baare me Bataana hai... Nisha said, and Lakshmi nodded, trying to hold her tears. She made Nisha lie down on the bed, and comforted her till she fell asleep.

CHAPTER - 16
"Papa! Aap na mujhe lagta hai sahi bol rahe ho! Kabir, Nishu kelie bilkul bhi theek nahi hai... aur un dono ka to divorce hi hojaana chahie ab... Dolly spoke, angrily. "Haan tauji, Kal Kabir ne jo kiya! Use baad to mujhe bilkul nahi lagta ki Kabir humaare maafi ke laayak hai... Sukku yelled, while Saurav placed his arm on his shoulder, and backed him. "Haan! Aur aaj se hum khud dhyaan rakhenge, ki Nishu Kabir se kabhi na mile... aap hum par bharosa kar sakte ho... Kirti said, to Viren. Viren was totally convinced, and he was now ready to give Nisha's charge in their hands. "Theek hai phir, Main Nisha ki zimmedaari tum logon ko deta hu! Viren said, as he clasped his watch around his wrist, and moved out of his room. "Ab hum Nishu ko Kabir se milaake hi rahenge! The cousins spoke together, and shared a group hug.
**********
A women clad in a black burkha, having her face totally covered, rang the doorbell of the Gangwal house. Roopan, who opened the door, was confused seeing a person, whom she never saw in her house before. "Yes? Roopan asked, trying to know her identity. "Ji, main Arshia, Nisha aur Kirti ki college friend hu... the women said. "Achha... pehle to tumhaare baare me nahi suna? Roopan enquired. "Haan...wo main pehle kabhi yahan aayi nahi na, Aunty! The women spoke. Roopan nodded, and welcomed her into the house. Dolly, who was passing by, walked towards them, and, "Arshiaa... Tum yahan? She almost shrieked in excitement. "Kitne din hogaye hai tumko dekhe... chalo, Nisha aur Kirti apne kamre me hi hai... Dolly said, and held Arshia's hand, hurriedly taking her into Nisha's room. Roopan felt suspicious, but then, she ignored.
**********
Not more than five minutes passed, when Arshia walked out of Nisha's room along with Kirti. "Bye, Nisha! Arshia said, in a slightly different tone. Roopan, who was still sitting in the living room, found it suspicious, as they hurriedly moved towards the door. "Kirti, Kahan jaa rahi ho? Roopan asked. Kirti was nervous. "Maa, wo main aur Arshia bas thoda sa cafe tak jaa rahe the... Nisha to aa nahi sakti na... to Socha hum hi chale jaate hai... Kirti said. Roopan nodded. "Nishu apne room me hi hai na? Roopan asked. "Haan, mom! Wo so rahi hai... aur dolly di bhi wahi hai uske saath... Kirti said, and Roopan nodded. Kirti and Arshia hurried out of the Gangwal house, took a cab and left. "Thank you so much, Kirti... Arshia said. "Nishu... Tu Kabir se mil legi, to isse ache baat kya hogi humaare liye... Kirti said, and hugged her sister.

He was looking at the time in his wrist-watch, impatiently. He was finally going to meet his Nisha. Though he had seen her last night, but all that he remembered, was just a blurred vision of people in front of him, and nothing else. He knew that he was wrong last night, and he wanted to apologise to her for doing all that last night. He didn't even remember, her reaction on seeing him last night. This blurred moment in his head was like a torture to him. He didn't want to drink, but he couldn't avoid it too, as someone told him that it was the only way to forget the pain one has within.
He woke up with a shooting pain in his head. He didn't realise that he was drunk last night, until he realised that smell of alcohol, which surrounded him. And then, slowly, he got a few glimpses of what he did in that state. He mentally cursed himself for doing all that. And when he was about to go to Gangwal house to apologise for his behaviour last night, he was stopped by his elder brother, Viraj. "Kahan jaa rahe hai aap, Kabir? Viraj asked, as he stood in the middle of the doorway, blocking Kabir's way. "Bhai! I don't know Maine kal raat kya kiya... par Mujhe Nisha se milke usse apologise Karna hai... Kabir said. "kabir... ab aap kuch nahi karenge! Hume baat sambhalne dijiye... aur aap jaake ready hojaiye... aap Nisha se Milne jaa rahe hai... Viraj said, and Kabir wiped his tears, and happily hugged his brother. "Par kaise? He asked. "Karan aarahe hai... wo aap ko le jaenge! Viraj said, and Kabir nodded and left to freshen up.
**********
"Wo log abhi tak aaye kyun nahi, Karan? Kahin pakde to nahi gaye... kabir asked nervously, as Karan himself was thinking the same. "I think... Mujhe jaana chahie wahan par! Ho sakta hai Nishu ko zaroorat pade meri... Kabir said. He was tensed. Karan agreed, and they were about to move out of the place, when Kirti entered the Hotel, along with the burkha clad lady. Kirti was nervous. Kabir almost yelled, in frustration. Nisha was happy that she could finally see him properly after so many days. She removed the veil from her face, and called out his name, with utmost love, pain, and want. His heart skipped several beats together, as soon as he saw her. Nisha wiped her tears and ran into his embrace, and he hugged her tight. They cried. He kissed on the crown of her head, as she continued sobbing in his arms. Kirti and Karan were happy seeing them like this. He cupped her face, and wiped her tears away. "Nisha, I am sorry for whatever I did yesterday...I didn't mean to do all that... Kabir said. "It's okay, Kabir...I understand all that... she said, and hugged him again. They realised that the people around them, were looking at them strangely, so they maintained a little distance. "To abhi hum chalte hai... tum dono apna khayaal rakhna... Kirti said. Kabir thanked Karan and Kirti, for their help. Karan and Kirti hugged Kabir and Nisha, and asked them to stay safe. Kabir nodded, and took Nisha's hand in his, and moved towards the room that Karan booked for them. They walked half their way, when Kabir stopped her, and took her in his arms, and then he walked towards their room, with her in his arms. He locked the door as they entered their room, and took her into his warm embrace, where she just vented out all the pain within. He didn't stop her, and let her vent all of it out.
She stared at his smiling face, and wiped away those tears which escaped his eyes, and just crushed her lips on his. She removed her burkha, threw it away, and moved closer to him, as he cupped her face, and kissed her luscious lips, soothing all the hunger that resided within them from the past few weeks. He wasted no more time and scooped her in his arms, and placed her on the bed with utmost care, as he continued to kiss her. He broke the kiss, as she panted heavily under him. He continued kissing on her face, then neck, and then her chest. He stopped for a moment, and started unbuttoning his shirt. "You don't know, Nisha... How much I've yearned for you... Kabir said as he got rid of his shirt and threw it over the floor. "I know it all, Kabir... she said, as she let him get rid of her tee shirt too. "Kabir...I need to tell you something... Nisha said, placing her hands over his chest. "I need you now, Nisha... we can talk later...I promise!He said, kissing her palms, and she nodded. He started kissing all over her body wildly, as she relished each one of it, on her body. Her body felt alive after so many days, as he kept pouring in all his love into this love making. He pulled down the straps of her brassiere, while it still remained intact in covering her assets, and gave open mouthed kisses on her shoulder. Her hands played in his hair, as his lips traced above her cleavage. He held her neck, and gently elevated her body with his one hand, as he used the other to unhook her brasserie, and get her rid of it. The next moment, it lied over the floor too. He moved his lips to her bosoms, and tortured them in his way. She moaned, as he nuzzled his lips over her nipple, and then kissed, and sucked onto it, and then did the same to the other one. His hands simultaneously massaged her waist. She placed her hands on his neck and head, and pushed him more into herself, as he kept torturing her mounds. He moved down, and played his lips on her belly button. The anticipation within her just went on growing enormously. She knew his next move. He took a moment and pulled the comforter over their bodies, as he went down on her. He got rid of her denims and then inner, and threw them aside. She spread her legs, giving him his space, as he started nibbling the skin of her private part. Her one hand gripped to his hair, while the other clasped the bed sheet, tightly. She arched her back in pleasure, and wrapped her legs around his neck as he kept torturing there. She moaned louder and louder. She didn't want him to go out of his control, but she didn't stop him. But when she realised that it can be harmful, she pulled him up.
He placed his lips on hers, and kissed her, as she kept sucking and nibbling onto his lips. He supported his body on his elbow, as he tried to unbutton his denims with the other hand. She realised that she needed to talk to him first. "Kabir... I need to talk to you, before we move further... Nisha mumbled, to which he just placed his index finger on her lips and silenced her. "Talks can happen later, Nisha... He said. She wagged her head left and right saying a no. "It is important, Kabir... I need you to know this... she said staring into his eyes. "Can't it wait...? Kabir asked, impatiently. "No... she mumbled. He sighed and fell beside her on the bed, and zipped up his denims. He turned his head to look at her, and she turned her body to face him. "What is it? He asked. "Kabir... wo, tu, and main... she kept fumbling with her words. He stared at her in annoyance. "Kabir... you are going to be a dad soon! She finally said, and tried to analyse his reactions, as she knew that he wasn't ready. "Excuse me? He said, as he couldn't understand what she just spoke. "Kabir... I am pregnant, tu papa ban'ne waala hai... she said, placing her hand on his cheek, and fondling her thumb over it. His reactions were blank. He was totally silent, and just kept staring at her. He sat up on the bed, facing the other side. He fell into a deep trench of thoughts. Nisha realised that he was not ready, and this was yet another low in their relationship. Though she was not ready to have a baby before, but the feeling of a life breathing inside her, just changed her mind. She definitely wanted to be a mother, and moreover, it was a symbol of their love, it was his blood, and she didn't wanted to deny to it. She wanted to give birth to their baby, nurture it, and love it. She wanted to see Kabir with their baby. But the mere thought that he didn't want to accept the baby, brought tears into her eyes. She turned the other side, and sobbed silently. Facing rejection was difficult for her, especially when she wanted to have this baby.
On the other hand, Kabir just didn't know how to react. He was convinced this time, that everything happens at a wrong time in his life, but this thing, this little thing, the part of his blood, the symbol of his love, that breathed in his wife's womb, was a right thing at a wrong time. He couldn't believe first of all that, even after their constant attempts to avoid having a baby, she still conceived. He began suspecting how all this happened- his fault, a protection failure, or her fault. The next thing that clouded in his mind was the fact that a part of his blood breathed in her womb. He didn't know how he should be reacting. Her being pregnant with his child some day, was a thing he never thought of, the first time he saw her at the velvet lounge. He chuckled not making a noise, as he tried to compare that grumpy Nisha, with this woman who was telling him that she has his child inside her; this woman, who was totally head over heals in love with him. Is she the same woman? It is true that he was not ready to be a father so soon, but the very thought that the woman he loved the most in his life, was carrying his blood, his symbol of love inside her, and that he would have his child in his arms in a few months, just made him the happiest person in this world right now. Yes, he totally wanted this baby, his baby, their baby. He wanted to become a father. This news was like a blessing, when they were going through the most tough phase of their life. But as soon as he recalled her telling him that she didn't want to be a mother so soon, his smile was gone. It faded away. If that were the case and she really didn't wanted to have the baby, then he would never want to force her. He would never want her to suffer because of what he wants.
"Nisha... If you want to, then you can abort the baby... He started with a great difficulty, but she intervened and he couldn't complete the sentence. "Kabir... I want to abort this baby, she said, before he could, wiping the tears that fell off her eyes, as she spoke the worst words of her life. He assumed that she didn't want to have the baby, and wiped his tears, and she assumed the same about him. They were hurt, thinking about each other. He took his shirt, which lied over the floor, and wore it. He no more wanted to make love to her. His libido died a sudden death. She kept blaming herself for killing his mood. He stood up from the bed without talking even a word and gave her, her clothes. He didn't want his wants to kill her decisions, so he chose to stay calm. He was upset, and so was she. She noticed that he avoided an eye contact with her, as he kept looking somewhere else as he gave her the clothes. She thought that he must be angry about her pregnancy. She took the clothes from his hands and tried to read his face. "I will order something for us to eat... freshen up, and change till then... he said, and picked up the intercom and dialled some number. She silently stood up from the bed, wrapping the bedsheets around her body, and walked into the washroom. She latched the door and slid her body against it as she continued to sob. She cried her heart out. She placed her hand on her belly and stroked her hand there. "Your dad doesn't want you... I can't keep you, baby... I am sorry for promising you a happy life... she talked to her baby. She was hysterical. She stood up and changed her clothes, and again, moved out of the washroom and sat on the bed silently. She didn't have the courage to face him. He was standing in front of her, talking to someone over the phone. "Nisha...I got you an appointment with the gynaecologist! I'll accompany you... it's tomorrow... he said as he hanged the call. She felt bad. "I'll go with Dolly di... don't worry... she said, looking down. "Come on! I am your husband, and the father of this baby... they might need me for some formalities... he said, arching his eyebrows. She nodded silently. "I am sorry... she said, as she felt the urge to speak to him. He was confused. "For wrecking your mood... you wanted to make love to me... and I killed your mood by announcing my pregnancy... she mumbled. He wanted to shake her up and tell her that he was only happy when she told him this. "Don't worry, Nisha... I won't feel bad about this... he said and she nodded. "I will always support your decisions, no matter what... he said, and till now she had started crying again. "I am really sorry, Kabir... I didn't want to make you feel bad this way... she said. "What are you saying? Why would I feel bad? He asked as he came and lied down on the bed resting his head against the headboard. "I know that you don't want to become a father... don't act! She said, not trying to look at him. "Even I didn't want to become a mother... but I feel so special having your baby in my womb...it's a part of our love... It's a life that we made together, Kabir... having it inside me is a special feeling, Jaan... I want to give birth... I really want to... but all that matters to me, is your happiness... and if it comes with me killing our symbol of love... it's totally fine... She said, and wiped her tears. She took a deep sigh, as she waited for his reply, but he never spoke anything. She turned to look at him and found him lying on the bed, with the eyes closed and earphones plugged into his ears. He didn't even hear a word that she said. Him ignoring her like this was killing her. She didn't want to risk their relationship by asking him to let her keep the baby. She just wanted him.
"I think I should at least tell Nisha once, that I want the baby... Kabir thought, and opened his eyes to face Nisha. But he was late. The door of the room was open, and she was gone. She was no more there. He was confused, but angry too, that she didn't bother informing him before doing so. He would've dropped her home. No matter if she wanted the baby or not, as for now, she was pregnant with his child and she needed a proper care, and his support too. He thought that if he went wrong somewhere. He was curious if something about him had pissed her off. He stood up from the bed, and walked out of the room trying to find her, but she was nowhere.
**********
She had no strength to wait for Kirti to return to her and take her home. She just called a cab and fell into the backseat, and cried. She reached the Gangwal house in half-an-hour or so. She didn't mind, but just walked into the Gangwal house, as Viren who sat in the living room yelled at her for going out of the house when she wasn't allowed to do so. She just ignored him and walked into her room wiping her tears, as the other family members just kept looking at her in shock. She fell onto her bed and sobbed, hiding her face into the pillows. Her mother, her grandmother, her aunts, and Dolly, were in her room. They couldn't understand why she was like this. "Nisha... Get up, beta! What happened? Lakshmi asked, as she sat beside her and tried to calm her. "Nishuu... ke hua hai... bata to sahi... her grandmother asked. "Nishu... tu Kabir se mili kya? Dolly asked, and everyone looked at her in astonishment. "Aap sab please jao yahanse! Mujhe kisise baat nahi Karna hai abhi... Nisha yelled at all of them. "Nishu... tune Kabir ko tere pet se hone ki baat batayi? Vimla Taiji asked. Nisha didn't reply. Lakshmi made Nisha sit straight and wiped her tears. Kirti hurried into Nisha's room, and almost yelled at her, but seeing her state, she calmed down a bit. Nisha was sitting against the headboard, lifelessly. She wasn't speaking. "Nishu, tu aise kyu aagayi wahan se? Do you even know hum sab kitne pareshaan ho rahe the... and specially, Kabir... usko ye lag raha hai ki uske kisi baat se gussa hokar tu aise aagayi hai... baat to bata de kya hai? Kirti said, as she sat before Nisha and Lakshmi, Saroj and Dolly stared at her blankly. "Tune Kabir ko bataya ki nahi baby ke baare me...? Lakshmi asked. Nisha nodded. "Phir kya hua? Dolly asked. "Main kal abortion kelie jaa rahi hu... she said. Her tone reflected her pain. "Ye kya pagalpanti hai, Nisha? Kabir ko pata hai is baare me? Usko kaisa lagega... Lakshmi said. "Wo nahi chahta, maa! Wo humaare baby ko nahi chahta... Nisha mumbled. "Aur main Kabir ke against nahi jaana chahti... she said, before anyone could say anything. "Par tune usko ye bhi to nahi bataaya that you want to give birth... Kirti said. "Mere kuch chaahne na chaahne se kya hoga... jab Kabir khud ye baby nahi chahta... main Akele Kaise karungi sab kuch... Nisha said. "Nishu... tu pagal hai kya... Kabir aisa kyu chahega yaar... he loves you... and I am sure ki wo bhi chahta hai... Dolly said. "I don't want to keep false hopes... Nisha said. "Main kal jaa rahi hu abortion karwaane... Kabir ne khud mere liye appointment fix kari hai... aur main bas kisi bhi baat ki wajah se Kabir se door nahi hona chahti... she said. Everyone was baffled when they heard that Kabir, himself, has fixed this appointment for Nisha. "Yahi hota hai! Jawaan ladka hai... sab kuch karke phir peeche hat Jane ki aadat hoti hi hai... ho sakta hai wo sirf Nishu ke saath wo sab kuch karne me interested ho... par uske bachhe paida karne me nahi... Roopan said, just to earn a deadly glare from everyone present in that room. "Nahi... just saying... Nishu ne bola na ki uski appointment Kabir ne khud fix karwaayi hai doctor ke saath... Roopan said, giving a clarity for her cruel words. "Mera Kabir aisa nahi hai... wo to bas humne mil kar decide kiya tha ki abhi hum apni family nahi badhaana chahte... hum ek doosre ko time dena chahte the... phir aisa hogaya... isme uski kya galti hai? Galti to saari meri hai... ki jab mujhe pata tha ki ye nahi ho sakta abhi... to phir bhi expect karke baithi thi ki wo khush hoga... Nisha said, painfully. She was devastated. "Phir bhi! Jab wo Nishu ke saath wo sab karke usko pregnant kar sakta hai... to phir is bachhe ko accept kyu nahi kar sakta... Roopan spoke again. "Taiji, stop it! Kabir ko villain mat banaiye... uski koi galti nahi hai in sab me... wo ready nahi hai... to bas nahi hai... aur main uske against ab ek aur word nahi sun'na chahti... Nisha spoke for Kabir. "Main bas kal jaa rahi hu abortion karwaane, chaahe koi bhi, kuch bhi soche humaare baare me... Nisha announced, and wiped her tears. Everyone knew that Nisha was determined now. She won't listen to anyone. But the thing that bothered them the most was Kabir's behaviour towards Nisha and the baby.
**********
Nisha walked lifelessly through the corridors of the hospital, towards the Doctor's cabin, as Dolly, Kirti, Sukku and Saurav, followed her, not knowing what to do. Nisha looked up and saw the nervous Kabir, who sat in front of the doctor's cabin, alone. He wasn't happy with this. He still wanted the baby, but he didn't want to interfere with Nisha's wants. "Kabir... Nisha weakly mumbled. He looked up at her pale face. He stood up and walked to her hesitantly. He took her in his embrace and kissed on the top her head. She just involuntarily hugged him back. They could feel the strange hesitation that resided within them. Her cousins just angrily glared at him. Kabir held her hand in his, and they both went into the doctor's cabin. They sat awkwardly, as they waited for the doctor to begin. "So, you want to have an abortion? The lady doctor asked Nisha. Nisha couldn't reply, so Kabir did. "How many weeks pregnant are you? She asked. "four Nisha said. "So are you not happy with this pregnancy? Doc asked. "No! Nisha and Kabir spoke, for each other. Kabir thought that Nisha wasn't happy, and Nisha thought that Kabir wasn't. "Happens... Your families must not be knowing about this, right? The doc asked. Kabir and Nisha nodded. "So, you are her boyfriend? the doctor asked. Kabir wagged his head saying a no. "Friends with benefits? She asked. Kabir again said a no. "Then? She asked. "I am her husband-" he said. The doctor was baffled. "Then what's the problem? She asked. "We just don't want it right now, Nisha and Kabir said, in unison, and in annoyance. The doctor arched her eyebrows, and looked at them in a bit astonishment, and then looked down, smiling. "Love marriage? She asked. "Destined...then, love! Kabir said. The doctor nodded, though still confused. "When can I get the abortion done? Nisha asked, not making a further fuss. "Just give me your medical reports? I'll call you in an hour or so? The doctor said. They nodded and walked out of the cabin, handing her the reports. Dolly, followed by others, walked to them as soon as she saw them come out. "Kya hua? They all asked Nisha, and ignored Kabir. "Doctor ne abhi ek ghante baad bulaaya hai! Kabir said. "Tab tak coffee pi kar aate hai cafe me... Kabir said, and they ignored replying him. Nisha tried to be normal. Kabir couldn't understand this odd behaviour of Nisha's cousins, towards him. Nisha held Kabir's hand and took him into the cafe as the cousins silently followed them. They could understand how difficult all this was, for Nisha, while Kabir just behaved normal.
They walked into the cafe and Kabir tried to hold Nisha close to himself, but she was maintaining a distance, which he couldn't understand. He couldn't understand all this odd behaviour. They took their seats and Kabir ordered coffees for all of them. He was about to make the payment, when sukku interfered, and "Tujhe pay karne ki koyi zaroorat nahi hai... hum apna khud pay kar sakte hai... he said angrily, but Nisha asked him to not make a fuss. "Kya hua hai? Tumlog aise kyu behave kar rahe ho mere saath...? Kabir asked. They ignored him. Anger was written over all their faces. "Kya hua hai tumlogon ko, batao to sahi? Kabir asked, and looked at Dolly, then at Saurav, but no one replied. "Kabir, kuch nahi hua hai... shaant reh! Nisha said and patted over his back. "Nisha, ruk na! Mujhe bhi jaan'na hai ki ye log aisa behave kyu kar rahe hai mere saath... jaise ki maine kuch bohot bura kardia ho... come on, yaar, kya hogaya hai tum sab ko... Kabir almost yelled. Sukku was about to yell at him, but Nisha asked him to be silent over it. Kabir was annoyed. The doctor called on Nisha's number and called her for the procedure. She took Dolly with her, as she didn't want to break down before Kabir. This went unnoticed by Kabir, but soon when he realised this, he felt bad. He walked towards the OT, and saw Dolly leaning to the wall beside the door, depressed. He just silently sat down on the bench, devastated. Sukku walked towards him angrily, followed by Kirti and Saurav. For a moment, Suketu silently stood beside Kabir, as Kabir looked up and passed on a faint smile to him. That smile on Kabir's face reminded him of the tears in his sister's eyes. "I never knew that you were this selfish, Kabir, sukku spoke, angrily, as he avoided looking at him. Kabir looked up at once. "What happened, Sukku? Kabir asked, as Dolly, Kirti and Saurav tried to calm Suketu. Kabir stood up and walked towards his brother-in-law. "Tu ab bhi ye puch raha hai ki kya hua? Sukku asked, as he angrily moved towards him and held Kabir by his collar. "Sukku, hua kya hai? Kabir almost yelled in frustration. "Ye sab kuch jo ho raha hai na... sirf Teri wajah se ho raha hai... sukku yelled, pointing his finger at Kabir. Kabir was baffled, and he just kept looking at Sukku, and waited for him to continue. "Tune apne selfishness me ye bhi nahi dekha ki Nishu kya chahti hai... usse kamse kam ek Baar bhi tune nahi pucha... aur seedha seedha bol diya ki abortion karaale... Sukku said. Kabir just kept listening to him. "Sukku... Kabir mumbled. "Nishu wanted to give birth to this baby, Kabir... but sirf isliye ki tu ye nahi chahta... she is aborting this baby... wo nahi chahti thi ki tujhe ye sab pata chale... but tujhe na ye realise karne keliye ki tu kitna selfish hain... ye sab pata chalna zaroori hai... sukku said, and realisation hit Kabir hard. "The truth is... that you have the guts to sleep with her, but not to raise her baby... Sukku said. "It isn't true... he mumbled in whispers. He wanted to save his baby, now. He barged into the OT, where Nisha's surgery was going on. The doctors and medical staff working inside got alarmed as Kabir entered the OT. They tried to throw him out. Nisha was just blankly looking at him. She had just lied down on the bed, after changing into a patient's gown. "Doctor, please don't perform the surgery! We want this baby... Kabir pleaded. Nisha was angry. She asked him to leave at once. The doctors who were about to start the surgery, stopped, and looked at both of them. "Nisha, I know that we totally want this baby... I realised... it was all because of a misunderstanding... please, don't abort the baby... I swear, I want to become a father... he said, and tears formed in their eyes. "Phir tu baad me mana to nahi karega na? She asked innocently, and tears rolled down her cheeks. Kabir chuckled midst of his tears. Tears denied to stop. He moved his head left and right, saying that he wouldn't. She climbed off the bed, and ran into his arms. He hugged her tight. They apologised to the doctor, and left the room, as she changed.
CHAPTER 17
IDK, WHAT I AM WRITING. I AM JUST ENDING THIS STORY SOON AND WILL CONTINUE WITH THE OTHERS. BEAR WITH IT.😛
Sukku apologised to Kabir for his behaviour, as Kabir recited the whole misunderstanding-story between him and Nisha, to them. The cousins were happy. Kabir took Nisha to their home. He held her hand, as they walked into their house after so many days. He took her into his arms and he walked into their bedroom. He laid her down on the bed, and sat beside her. She rested her head in his lap, and wrapped her arm around his waist, as he caressed her hair. "I don't want to go back, Kabbu...I want to live with you... she said. "You don't have to... you will stay with me only... he said and bent down and kissed on her temple. "I don't know what has happened to my family... that they are hell bent into separating us... even after knowing that I am expecting your child... they didn't even think of our baby... Nisha said. She was overwrought. "They can't separate us, Nisha... they're just way too angry to think straight... Kabir spoke. Nisha nodded. "I just don't want to stay away from you for even a second now... I want to grow into this pregnancy, with you beside me... I want my baby's daddy to be with me... like forever from now on... she said, and he nodded. He adjusted himself beside her on the bed, and embraced her close in his arms. "They can't take you and our baby away from me, Nisha... He said and kissed on her forehead. "I don't know why are we even living like this... even after we are married... even after they know how much we love each other... even after they've come to know that I am pregnant... why aren't they are even thinking about what I want? She almost yelled. She broke into tears. He shushed her.
"And... what were you doing today, Nishu? He asked, as he let her snuggle into his chest. "What did I do? She asked. "Just because you thought that I didn't want the baby... you wanted to kill your wants and our baby? He mumbled. "Even you did the same, Kabir... just because you thought that I didn't want a baby so soon... you were ready to let go your wishes ... you wanted me to kill our baby... She mumbled. He was silent. "I am not letting you leave me today... even if your Tauji comes... or your Dadaji... you are my wife... you've my baby in your womb... that's it... Kabir said, and Nisha stared at him blankly. She placed her hand at the back of his neck, and pecked his lips. She moved back, a little, and stared into his eyes. His eyes had the love and need that she yearned to see, all these days. "Let's complete what we left incomplete yesterday... she said, as she folded her thumb over his cheek. He nodded. "But, be gentle... she said, and kissed over his chin. He nodded again and smiled.
He crushed his lips with hers, not wasting another moment. The kiss was slow, expressing all his love with utmost patience, and soothing her in a way, that his words couldn't. He gripped her waist and pulled her body closer to his, as she struggled to adjust in his arms. She traced her hand along his spine, pulling him even closer to her, as they were slowly losing themselves into the kiss. He pressed his tongue at the seam of her lips asking for an access into her mouth, and she immediately parted her lips, letting him delve in. Their breaths mingled. His tongue took the access of her tongue and they started their fight for dominance over each other. They could very well feel the heat rising between them. Her hand drifted up to his hair, and his hand worked up in his way under her pink, cotton, tee-shirt. His bare touches on her skin were waking up the wildest of the desires within her. The kiss was a total sexual one- passionate, lusty, hungry, and hot. They could barely breath while they kissed. He rolled over her as he continued sucking her lips, and dwelling into her mouth. She struggled to breath. He pulled his lips apart, as he realised this. "Kabirr... she mumbled, as she panted heavily under him, and looked into his sensuous, seductive eyes. She cupped his face, and elevated her head a little to kiss his forehead. He smiled, as he grabbed her waist, and then drifted his hands up to the rim of her tee-shirt, as he slowly pulled it off her body. She could feel his hot, anticipatory, breath over her face, as she started unbuttoning his shirt. He elevated himself, and got rid of his shirt and threw it aside. He placed a few gentle kisses over her face, and then he moved down, and nuzzled his neck with some open-mouthed kisses. His right hand caressed the skin of her belly, while the other hand stayed over her shoulder, keeping her body in position. Her hands stayed on the back of his head and neck, pulling him closer and closer to herself. She gasped in pleasure as his lips blushed over her cleavage. He moved his lips to her covered mounds and nibbled her nipples, not uncovering them. He moved down and licked away her belly button. He planted several, love-filled, gentle, kisses over her belly, and his hands continued to massage her mounds. He moved up, and placed trails of kisses along her neck, and shoulders, then arms, and armpits. She was totally lost in this love-making. He held her by her arm, and whipped around her body. He set aside her hair which loosely fell over her back, and started kissing again, first over her earlobe and then slowly her shoulder, then her back, as he slowly traced his lips down her spine. His kisses sent chills down her body. She moaned and then gasped, as he unhooked her brasserie, and pulled it off her body. He made patterns over her back using his fingers as he nuzzled his lips at the crook of her neck. He pulled her towards him, facing the back of her body. His hands roamed freely over her belly and then moved up, massaging his bare mounds again, and he placed trails of kisses over her arm. She moaned, as he again turned her so that she faced him.
He attached his lips with hers for a short kiss, and the again moved to her bare mounds and kissed, and sucked, and nibbled them away. He moved down and unbuttoned her denims, and rolled it down her legs, along with her panties. She was completely bare before him now. He moved up, and looked into he eyes, which burned in anticipation and need. She helped him unbutton his denims and get rid of it. Now he was completely unclothed before her too. "I am going to do it now... if you are okay with it... he said, and she nodded. He moved down his fingers to her special part to check if she was ready for it. He positioned himself, as he realised that she was. He looked into her eyes, trying to trace that need, that desire for him, as he slowly plunged into her, gently. She yelped in pain, as he entered her. "Tell me if it hurts, I will stop... he said, and she blinked her eyes in acceptance. He intertwined his fingers with hers and pinned them down on the bed. He rested his head at the crook of her neck, as he continued moving in and out of her. She moaned and cried, louder and louder, in pain. "Kabbu... it hurts... she tried to suppress her voice, but the pain forced it out. He stopped, and elevated his head and cupped her face. "I am so sorry... he said. Guilt visible in his eyes. "Don't stop, Kabir... I want you to love me... don't stop... she said, fondling her fingers over his face. "Let's not take the risk... I don't want it to harm you or the baby... he said with utmost concern. "It's totally fine, Kabbu... there is no harm... it's the usual pain that I feel every time we do this... Nisha said, and cupped his face. "No, Jaan, if it's hurting, then we shouldn't... since we have our baby in you this time... he said, and she rolled her eyes. "Kabbu.. it's totally normal... let's do it... I want you to... she said. He gave in to her, and continued doing what he was doing, again. He entered her, and started moving inside her again. He was gentle. He didn't continue it for long, and let her rest her body. He lied down beside her, and covered themselves with the comforter. She rolled into his arms. He moved down one last time for this moment, and planted a kiss over her belly. "Daddy loves you... he said, and his wife smiled. "And mumma loves daddy, and daddy's baby... She said and pulled him up, and pecked his lips, before dwelling herself into his embrace and dozing off.
**********
"Do you think we should tell Maa and Bhai about your pregnancy... or do you want us to wait? Kabir asked, as his fingers played with her tresses. She rolled closer into his arms, as they sat close to each other, covered in a comforter, touching skin to skin. Her hand wrapped around his chest, and head over his heart, hearing to the dub-dubs that his heart sang, monotonously. She could feel his hot, heavy, breath, fanning her neck. "I feel that this baby will only make them happy, Kabbu... they should know this... Nisha said, and planted a kiss over his chest. He placed his hand over her face and fondled his thumb over her cheek, as he looked into her contented eyes. "Thank you so much for giving me this happiness... thank you so much for making me a dad... you can't even imagine, how happy I am... he said and pecked her forehead, and she closed her eyes to feel his love. "But I fear... whether I'll ever be able to be a good dad for my baby, or not... I don't know how a dad must be... I never had my own... what if I couldn't manage to become a good dad... I don't want to make myself, or my baby, a burden on you... Kabir said. Tears escaped his eyes, and she wiped them away. "Trust me... You'll be the best daddy... the best one! She said and pecked his lips. He stroked his hand over her belly, trying to feel the baby. "We are becoming parents way too soon... we are still young... but I guess, this is by far, the best decision of our life... Kabir said, and Nisha nodded and smiled. "And I really trust this... because it is your blood that I've in my womb... your baby... she said, looking into his eyes with utmost love. "The first time I saw you at the velvet lounge... I never thought that this day was ever going to come... that I'll be so madly in love with you... and so much, that I will be carrying your baby in my womb some day... she said, and he chuckled. "That's the first thing that I thought when you gave me this news... he said, and chuckled. She pulled his cheeks and blushed.
"Kabir... call ma here na! Unse baat kiye... unko dekhe bohot din hogaye hai... Nisha said, and Kabir nodded. He bent to the floor and picked up his denims lying over there and wore them. "Go, and freshen up... I'll clean the bed in the meanwhile... He said, and she nodded. She wrapped herself in the bedsheets, and climbed off the bed. She was about to bend down to pick her clothes, when he stopped her. "Don't bend... it's harmful for you... he said, and picked her clothes for her. "Be careful from the next time... I might not always be around you... he said, patting over her cheek, lovingly. She smiled. She moved into the washroom to change, while he cleaned the bed in the meanwhile.

"Nisha, mumma is here! Kabir said, as he opened the door of his room and peeped in to look at Nisha, who stood before the mirror. She nodded looking at his reflection in the mirror as she slid down a lose tee-shirt onto her body, with utmost care. She turned towards him and walked in his direction as she simultaneously struggled to roll up her hair into a bun. Kabir smiled and held her hand, as she told him that she was nervous. "She'll be the happiest! He said and pecked her forehead, and smiled. "I don't know, but it just feels so awkward! She said, and cheekily smiled. He chuckled. "I know! He said, and they giggled. He intertwined her fingers with his and kissed her knuckles. "Let's go, would-be-mommy! He said, and she blushed. They walked out holding hands and they could witness a wholesome, happy smile on Vasu's face. Viraj and Kaira stood there smiling at both of them. Vasu stood up and immediately pulled her daughter-in-law into her embrace. There were tears of happiness in her eyes. "Mom, main phirse usko wapas wahan nahi bhejna chahta... ye yahi rahegi mere saath... humaare saath... chaahe kuch bhi hojaye... Kabir said and held Nisha in his embrace. "Chotey, par aapka Aisa karna Nisha ke family relations kharaab kar sakte hai... Viraj said. "Viraj, Kabir ne jo kiya shayad sahi kiya... wo log baaton ko samajh nahi rahe hai... jo hogaya hai... uski wajah se Nisha-Kabir ko alag karne ka kya Matlab banta hai... Vasu said. She was angry. "Aap wo sab baatein chodiye... ab Kabir, Nisha ko le hi aaye hai... to yehi theek hai...ab jo hoga, wo dekha jaega... Kaira said and Viraj agreed with her words. Kabir asked them to sit, as he himself made Nisha sit on the couch, and sat beside her. "Aapki tabiyat kaisi hai, maa? Nisha asked. "Tabiyat to humaari ek dum theek hai, par aapki bohot yaad aati thi, beta... Vasu said. Nisha smiled and told her that she too used to miss all of them a lot. Kabir and Nisha looked at each other, as they were nervous about announcing the news to all of them. Nisha looked down and blushed, while Kabir blushed too. Vasu found this strange and asked them if there was something that they needed to tell them. "Maa, there's actually something that we want to tell you... Kabir said. After building up a lot of courage within himself, he finally told them that Nisha is expecting. "Kabir, aap na abhi hum se bohot zor ka thappad khaalenge... ek hi prank Baar Baar kiya to... Vasu warned him. Her reaction was immediate. Viraj was kind of not convinced too. "Hume nahi lagta ye mazaak hai... look at that blush on Nisha's face... Kaira said, and everyone noticed the blush on Nisha's face. They looked at Nisha and then back at Kabir.
"Ye sach hai? Vasu asked Nisha and Kabir. They happily nodded. Vasu stood up and hugged them both. "Ab finally, humaare family me ek junior Rathore aane waale hai... hum bohot khush hai... Vasu squealed in excitement. "Aap dono parents banne belie bohot young nahi hai? Kaira asked, though with a smile. Kabir and Nisha nodded. "Nisha se mujhko dekhke control hota nahi...and she made this mistake... aur ab main mana to kar nahi sakta... jo hai wo mera hi hai... Kabir said and sighed, just to earn a hard smack on his arm. She glared at him. "Ek aur Baar bakwaas kari na, to I will kill you... she warned him. "Tu mujhe maardegi... to mera baby, papa kisko bolega? Kabir asked. "Main Akele kaafi hu uske liye... Nisha said, crossing her arms. "Dekho, Bol bhi kaun raha hai... Light jaati hai to Kabir...mujhe dar lag raha hai, Kabir...' kaun chillata hai mujhe hug karke? He said, trying to mock her. She was annoyed. "Now, this was mean! She said, making an annoyed face. "To wo jo Main Akele hi kaafi hu' tune bola tha, wo kya tha? He asked sticking out his tongue at her. "Whatever! Nisha said, and turned the other way. "Whatever! He mocked her. The others present in the room were trying to hold their laughter. "Aap sach me maa-baap banne waale hai na? Are you sure? Vasu asked and chuckled. "Mom, ye aapka nalaayak beta... humesha mujhe aise hi irritate karta rehta hai... Nisha complained. "Haan to tu majboor karti hai mujhe... Kabir said. "Arre! Bas! Don't fight! Vasu said, and they went silent at once. "Aapko dekhke bilkul hi nahi lagta hai that you're going to be parents... khud hi bachho ki tarah ladte hai aap... Viraj said and Kaira chuckled. "Ab hogayi galti... Kya kar sakte hai... he said and pulled Nisha into his embrace, as they both blushed.
"Aaj agar dad zinda hote to bohot khush hote... Viraj said and smiled. "Ye baat apke gharwaalo ko pata hai? Vasu asked. Nisha's smile faded away as she heard that, and she simply nodded. "Phir bhi? Viraj asked, and Kabir nodded. "Ye Gangwals' ko ho kya gaya hai? Vasu yelled. "Dadu humaara divorce karwaana chahte hai... Mujhe Kabir se door nahi jaana... Nisha said, as tears filled in her eyes. "Hum aapko kahin nahi Jaane denge... don't worry... Vasu said and caressed her hair. "Ab agar kuch bhi hota hai... to main unhe sab sach sach batadungi ki Kabir ne aisa kyu kiya... phir uske baad chahe kuch bhi ho koi farak nahi padta... Nisha said. "Nishu... tujhe kisi ko kuch bhi bataane ki zaroorat nahi hai... we'll find a way out of this...Kabir said. "But mere gharwaalo ne tujhe villain bana rakha hai, Kabir... Nisha said. "Nishu... as far as you and our baby are unharmed, I don't care about anything... Kabir said, cupping her face. "But I can't let you be like this... she said. "It's okay, Nisha... don't worry about me... you shouldn't worry about anything from now on... Just be carefree... take care of your health, that's it... you are going to give birth to our baby in a few months... Kabir said. She nodded. "Nisha...Kabir is right... you shouldn't worry about anything from now on... Vasu said. "Ab jaake rest kijiye aap... ab jo hoga wo dekha jaega... Vasu said and asked Kabir to take her back into their room. "Abhi hum bhi chalte hai... aur kal waapas aaenge... she said. Kabir nodded.

He walked into his room with two mugs of coffee in his hand. He tried not making a noise, so as to not disturb her sleep. He had planned to wake her up this evening with his special coffee. But to his surprise, his wifey wasn't there on the bed, nor was she in the balcony or the washroom, where he immediately checked. He was worried for a moment, but when he heard her calling him out, he was relieved. He walked out of the room and found her voice coming from the terrace. He stood near the staircase and looked up, and found her peeping down at him and smiling, standing at the end of the stairs, holding the rim of the railing. He knew that the railing was not right in its position. "Nisha, peeche hatt! He yelled at her. His voice scared her. She pressed her lips tight against each other and moved back at once. He ran up towards her only to witness a shocked face. Her smile was gone. She was looking at him all confused. Her sleepy eyes were moist. He bit his tongue as soon as he realised what he did. "Sorry, he mumbled, and smiled sheepishly. "Wo, I Was just scared that you may fall... that railing is not in a right state... he mumbled. She silently looked into his eyes, and nodded. "Did I scare you? He asked. She nodded like a kid. He chuckled.
"Ye le! He said as he gave her, her mug of coffee. She took it from him and followed him as he opened the door of the terrace for her. Cool wind was flowing. "You should've told me if you wanted to come here... I would've brought you here... it's harmful for you to climb all these stairs... he said not looking at her, as he sat on the swing and made some place for her beside him. "Come... sit here! He said, holding her hand. She didn't, and instead sat on his lap, with an arm wrapped around his neck for support while the other arm held onto the mug of coffee. He smiled and kept his mug of coffee on the floor, and wrapped his hands around her waist. "So? He asked. "So? She said. He looked at her in confusion. "We have to be careful from now on... he said. "we can't afford even a single mistake... as it might harm our baby... he said, and she nodded agreeing to his words. "I know... I understand it all... she said. "So... if sometimes I shout on you for something... don't take it to your heart... it's only for you and our baby... you know that I care for you both, right? He said, and kissed at the crook of her neck. She nodded. "I know that you care for me, and our baby, the most...Kabbu... Nisha said. He smiled and nodded, resting his forehead against her arm. There was a minute pause in their conversation. He looked up and found her drowned in some thoughts, when he realised that she didn't speak for more than a minute. He asked her if there was something that bothered her.
"What happened... is it something about your health... or the baby...? He asked. His tone expressed his worry. "No... she said. "Then what happened? He asked. "My family didn't try to search for me... although they knew that I wasn't home... Nisha said. "Your cousins might've managed... Kabir said, pulling her into his embrace. "What if they've got to know that I am here with you... and they've disowned me... she expressed her worry. "Nothing like that will ever happen... Kabir said. "You know how much they love you... he continued. She sighed. "Why don't you call someone and check it yourself... he asked, handing her, his phone. "Call Kirti... she must be home... Kabir mumbled, and she dialled Kirti's number. Kirti picked the call after five rings, and her tone was jovial.
"Hogaya tumhaara romance? She spoke. The call was on the loudspeaker mode. Kabir smiled and Nisha blushed. "Sun na... ghar me kisiko mere yahan hone ke baare me pata chala kya? Nisha asked. Kirti could sense the anticipation in Nisha's tone. Kirti looked at Aman, who stood beside her. "Nishu... tu bilkul fikar mat kar... humne yahan sab kuch manage karliya hai... Kirti spoke with utmost difficulty. Aman placed her hand over Kirti's shoulder and assuaged her. "sab kuch manage hogaya? Main ghar aaun kya? Nisha asked. She was confused. "Nahi, Nisha... tu yahan bilkul mat aana ...tu abhi Kabir ke saath hi reh... trust me, humne sab kuch manage karliya hai... abhi rakhti hu main... thoda sa important kaam hai... Kirti said and cut the call before Nisha could reply. "Kabir, mujhe kuch theek nahi lag raha... she said. She felt suspicious. "Kabir, main maa ko call karti hu... she said and dialled Lakshmi's number. The call was cut after the first ring. Then she called on the landline. She was scared. She gasped as someone took the call. "Hello... she mumbled. "Nishu... it was Dadi's voice. "Dadi... Nisha mumbled. Before Saroj could speak, the phone was snatched from her. "Aaj ke baad yahan kabhi call mat karna..." came a voice. It was Dadaji. The call was cut. This shook up Nisha to an extent that she trembled in fear now. "Kabir... Kabir... she panicked, and clutched to his shirt tightly. He stood up from the swing and made her sit properly in it, while he fell on his knees before her. She sobbed. He took her hands in his and asked her to look at him. "Kabir... how will I live without them? How can they disown me like this? Nisha yelled, and her anger and pain flowed out, through her words. "Things will be alright, Nisha... please, don't cry like this... your family isn't thinking straight... that's it... tu aise panic karegi, to kaise chalega? I promise you that I will make everything alright... trust me... Kabir said, and pulled her into his embrace. Kabir made up his mind to confront her family now. There was no other way. They disowned their daughter because of his fault, and that wasn't done. They didn't know the truth. And he didn't want his wife's dignity to be at stake, just to prove himself innocent. He couldn't let it effect her. "Don't worry... he said, stroking his hand over her back. "Things will settle... you'll have to take care of yourself for now... we need our baby to be healthy, na? Leave the rest on me... He said, and she nodded wiping her tears. He has to do something. She smiled, as he pecked on her forehead. "I trust you, she said. He smiled.
**********
"Kabir, kal se college chalega kya? She asked him. He chuckled. "Tu college jaegi? Aise? He asked and smirked. "To kya hua? Hume ye baat kisiko bataane ki zaroorat nahi hai... Nisha said. He stared at her. "Exams start hone wale hai... she said. He nodded. "Why don't we just drop it... bohot hogaya...He said. "I don't want to be called undeserving for that seat. I don't want us to waste it, after spending money... there are many deserving people, but still, we got them...we should be thankful... she said. He rolled his eyes. She glared at him. "I guess, you forgot why we joined the college... he asked. "I remember it all... but still, it's just till we give the exams, and we can quit from the next semester... she said. He sighed and nodded. "Don't stress yourself much, then. And don't take anyone's harsh words to your heart... Kabir said. She nodded and smiled.
**********
He scooped her in his arms and walked towards their bed. She had dozed off on the couch in the living room. He placed her on the bed and covered her with a comforter. He smiled looking at his adorable wifey. He sat on knees on the floor, beside the bed, and adored his super cute wifey. "Thank you, Jaan... for giving me the best gift of my life... he mumbled slowly, not disturbing her sleep. He placed his hand over her belly and caressed it. "Our symbol of love... he said, and kissed over her belly. "Your imperfect dad is waiting for you, little angel... he said and smiled. There was a minor pause. "Your mom is the best... he started again. "She has done a lot for this idiot, that I am... your dad is an idiot... who couldn't be with your mother, when she needed him the most... who just let her sacrifice her everything for him... so easily... and did nothing for her... she left her family for him... and all he could do was sit and stare... and make things more worse for her... I almost lost her once... and all because of my carelessness... I could never protect her like I promised... first when Sumit almost killed her... second, when we went for the trip... but then, when that day, Ajit tried to misbehave with her... I was sure that I wanted to kill him ... I wanted to protect your mom at any cost... and what happened after that, ended up making it worse for her ... I never wanted that to happen ... I can't even think of separating her from her family even in my dreams ... I know that they're her life ... when I couldn't see for her for almost a month... it was like I went mad... I almost killed myself ... but her call that day saved this idiot again... Your mom and I wanted to be with each other ... and when I met her after those many days, I got to know about you being in her womb ... I was relieved when I got to know that you were there with your mom, when I couldn't be... but I couldn't express myself and ended up hurting her again ... but she forgave me ... she trusted me again ... she chose me over her family ... do I even deserve all this? I could never do anything for your mumma, baby ... but still she chose me ... he spoke. His eyes were filled with tears as he talked to his baby. "Promise me that you'll always choose your mumma, over your papa... if that situation ever arises ... he mumbled, placing his hand over her belly.
"Kabirr... she mumbled. He realised that she was awake. He turned his face the other way and wiped his tears and then looked back at her and smiled. "Sleep na baba... get some rest... give my baby some rest too... he said, patting slightly on her cheek. She took his hand in hers and kissed his palm. "lie down beside me ... we want to rest in your arms ... she said. He nodded and ruffled her hair. He stood up and lied down on the bed as she made some space for him. She climbed onto his body like a kid, and rested her head over his chest as he wrapped his arms around her protectively. "I feel the most protected here, Kabbu... you are my solace... she said and kissed over his heart. "Sleep now, Jaan... we'll have to wake up early for college tomorrow... he said, as he stroked his hand over her back. He realised that she heard everything that he said. "Our baby will love us equally... she said, as she closed her eyes to sleep. He nodded and closed his eyes, feeling sleepy.
