Madhu woke up around 9 pm, only to find RK sitting next to her.

"Rishu" Madhu spoke in a faint voice.

"Madhu, you're up. How are you feeling?"

"I'm ok. When did you come? Why didn't you wake me up?" Madhu poured her questions. She tried to sit up, but felt quite weak. Her voice was hoarse and broken.

"You don't seem oyka. Why didn't you tell me you were unwell?" RK looked a bit angry and this made Madhu nervous.

"It's just a passing fever. I am perfect."

"Really? Let's see. Open your mouth." RK pushed a thermometer in her mouth and gestured to her to shut up.

"Hmm. 101.5." RK said a minute later reading the thermometer."You call it fine?"

"It's no big deal Rishu. It will be gone by the morning. When did you come? Did Trishna call you? How was your presentation today?"

"It was great. And I quit."

"What? Why?"

"That I will tell you after I you eat something."

"Tell me now. I am not hungry."

"No. You'll eat. And then eat medicines. And I don't want an argument." Something in RK's voice told Madhu not to argue and she stayed quiet. RK called Trishna and went out with her to the kitchen to find something for Madhu to eat. He returned after a few minutes with food and instructed Madhu to eat. She said she wasn't hungry, so RK picked up the spoon and fed her. Madhu couldn't refuse that, so she ate quietly, inwardly happy at the care she got from RK. As she ate RK filled her in on the events of the day, including the reason why he quit. Madhu was surprised, but agreed and supported RK's conclusions, even though she refused to take any credit for it.

After a few minutes, she couldn't eat anymore, and she pleaded RK to stop. RK eventually gave up to the pleading doe-eyes, and Madhu smiled.

"What are you smiling about? I had no idea you were so careless Madhubala."

"Careless?"

"What else? And you even lie to me?"

"I never lie to you Rishu. About anything?"

"Oh really! Then why didn't you tell me about your new deal at office?" Madhu looked up at

RK with surprise.

"Yeah, Trishna told me. Clearly you don't consider me important enough to share anything.."

Madhu's face turned pale at hearing those words from RK. She hadn't meant to lie or hide

anything, she just wanted to focus on RK's problems and keep him away from any other

stresses. Nothing else seemed important enough at the moment.

"No...RK...that's not true."Madhu struggled to say something, but she could see that RK was

upset and it was her fault. She didn't intend to hurt RK but...

RK noticed the change in Madhu's expression and realized she felt guilty and had taken this

far more seriously than he intended. He sat down and held Madhu's hOk.and.

"I am sorry Rishu..I am really sorry. You are the most important person for me. You were so

stressed and I just didn't want to bother you at the time. I was not trying to lie or hide from you. I would never..."A few tears slipped out Madhu's eyes.

"Okay. I understand. Why are you crying baba?" RK wiped Madhu's tears. "I am not angry

anymore. Stop feeling sorry. I know why you did what you did. I just want you to know that you can share your joys and your problems with me. It's your right. And it's my right too. And I need you to take care of yourself. Ok?"

Madhu silently nodded and hugged Rishabh. She still felt guilty over hurting RK.

"Aww my honey baby."

"I am sorry RK. But I have never lied to you. Honesty is very important to me."

"I know baba. I don't know how I got you. I would have never made it through without you. I am so happy. Now cheer up" Madhu smiled, and RK returned her smile.

"I love you Rishu."

"I love you too. Now have this medicine and rest. Let me go see Trishna."

Madhu was still very weak and exhausted by her conversation, so she dozed off as soon as she had the medicine.

She woke up again at around 1 am, and to her surprise RK was still there, sleeping on the

chair next to her bed. He had stayed back, and the thought made Madhu feel more loved than she had ever felt in her entire life. She woke RK up and gently asked him to come lie down on the bed next to her. RK sleepily walked to the bed, and slipped next to Madhu, snuggling her. He had himself not slept well for many days, and tonight in each other's arms, Madhu and RK slept very very soundly.

***************************************************************************

It was almost 10 am when Madhu woke up. Immediately, she felt a warm sensation and realized she had spent the night in RK's arms. She lay there trying to soak in the feeling. She could feel his breath on his neck, and that sent a current down her body. The proximity was making her body experience unfamilar urges. She turned back, and on impulse kissed RK on his lips before trying to get up, but RK stopped her.

"Where do you think you are going?" He said and pulled her back. She fell on her back and in no time RK moved so his hand and his leg was clasping Madhu to her position.

"Trish.."

"She's gone to office. It's just you and me. Now, what kind of a good morning kiss was that

honey?" Rk mischievously said and bent forward to dip deep into Madhu's luscious lips.

Waking up next to his Madhu had woken up several latent needs in him. He moved on top of Madhu and deepened his kiss, and soon Madhu was responding back in equal measure. Passion soon took over. Madhu embraced RK with one hand and moved the other in his hair. RK let his hand roam over Madhu's body, feeling the curve of her waist that had enchanted him so much.

At some level he was shocked he had resisted so many days, but neither of them could stop

today. RK proceeded to kiss Madhu on her cheeks, then licked her ears and slowly moved to

the neck as he heard Madhu moan in pleasure. Their kissed continued to go urgent and slowly RK moved his hand over Madhu's breasts. She let out a loud gasp, and for a brief second RK wondered if he should stop but he looked at Madhu, their eyes met and she pulled him towards herself for another soul-stirring kiss. As their tongues battled each other, Rishabh gradually moved his hand over Madhu's breasts. Even through her T-shirt he could feel her hardened nipples. He gently squeezed one of her breasts and Madhu bit his lip in response.

"Ouch! Jungli billi!"

He gasped before laughing and resuming his attack. He sucked on Madhu's neck and shoulder, leaving a couple of hickeys. Madhu was lost in the wave of passion and kept moaning RK's name. She was his, she knew, but today she realized how beautiful it was, being his. RK, who was himself lost in the passion of the moment, was fully aroused realizing how soft Madhu felt in his arms. He pushed Madhu's Tshirt down a little bit till one of her breasts was exposed, and soon his lips were sucking her causing a wave of electricity to pass through Madhu. She jumped up with a start, causing RK to get off her.She sat up and straightened her T-shirt, feeling absolutely embarrassed by the events of the last 15 minutes. RK studied her for a second, and saw her smiling and going completely pink.

"You're a naughty boy, Rishabh Kundra." Madhu said and got off the bed.

"Not my fault, Madhubala Malik. You're too sexy for me to resist."

"Shut up!" Madhu laughed and ran to the washroom. Although she had enjoyed making out with RK, she didn't want to rush things too much and she knew RK felt the same way. All this was so new and overwhelming to Madhu, that she felt like a 16 year old kid.

"I should have had a boyfriend in high school like everyone else, at least I wouldn't feel so embarrassed now!" she told herself before taking a bath.

When she got out, RK was calmly sipping coffee sitting on the chair.

"Good morning honey" he said with a smile and passed her a cup of coffee, admiring how she looked in wet hair. Madhu was amazed how this felt like a regular morning...as if they woke up in each others' arms everyday and made out!

"How are you feeling now?"

"I am fine. No fever. I told you I would be ok by the morning."

"It's gone only because I fought it off in the night with you." RK said. "But you still need to rest and fully recover. And I also want to listen about your deal. So I have decided we are staying in bed all day." Something about the way he said in bed made Madhu looked at him questioningly, but he was grinning.

Before she could say anything though, his phone rang and he walked out of the room to take the call. Meanwhile Madhu made a quick breakfast for both of them. While cooking, she thought about what they could spend the rest of the day doing. RK's in bed and the memory of the little session this morning made her smile to herself. She had seen the hickeys RK had left on her neck in the bathroom mirror. Her hand inadvertently went up to the spot now. Chiding herself for going out of control, she decided that she would cook RK a nice lunch and they would both watch a movie together as she laid out the breakfast. RK was still not back from the call, so she waited.

Another 15 minutes later, RK came back and found Madhu at the dining table.

"All ok?" she asked.

"Yeah. It was just Maya. Listen Madhu, if you're feeling better now, I am going to go home and change. I need to meet Maya for lunch. I didn't get a chance to tell her about the resignation and stuff at office in all the confusion yesterday and I also need to get a few things done and start looking for a job. So, if you don't need me here, I'm going to leave."

"Okay, if you need to go. Can I do something to help?"

"No...you should just rest the remainder of the day and get better. I will see you tomorrow maybe?"

"Hmm. At least come here, have breakfast before you go..."Madhu said. All the hopes she had built up in her head in the last half an hour sort of crashed, but she understood the situation, so didn't feel too bad. RK had spent the entire night with her and took her care of her so well.

It was more than Madhu had ever thought she deserved.
