Part 25 - Love In The Air!!
"You are not just my Friend; You are my Love!
You are not just my Love; You are my Heart!
You are not just my Heart; You are my Life!
You are not just my Life; You are my Everything"
(Madhu's POV)
"Ah! My darling man is sleeping." I smile seeing my Rishu sleeping. I rarely get chance to admire him while he sleeps as I mostly sleep early & wake up late unlike Rishu. He is an early riser. Such an active & energetic man. Probably the secret of his fitness. But today he is still asleep. May be jet lag.
I sit beside him on the bed & comb his hair gently with my fingers moving the floppy hair from his forehead. Then I lean forward to place a tender kiss on his lips. A smile forms on his beautiful face but I know he is still asleep. I couldn't help but poke my index finger on his cute dimple. Then I lock both of my index finger on either side of his dimples & start kissing his forehead, his nose, his lips... & my lips got locked. He is awake! He is kissing me back. I feel his hands skimming on the side of my waist & he jerks me forward & I fall on top of his torso, minding my broken hand.
"Good morning, beautiful" I feel his kiss on top of my head. I raise my head from his chest & look up at him. He is grinning. His hands gently squeezing my hips.
"Rishu, leave me" I wriggle but in vain as he grips me tight.
"Morning morning you start then ask me to leave you?" He teases but I could see raw passion in his eyes & my cheeks start burning.
"I thought you were asleep" I tell looking away.
"Okay, let me pretend as if I am asleep & you finish what you started" He tells & closes his eyes.
"I didn't start anything. I just came to kiss you before I leave to college. I am done so going. Bye" I tell & was about to start but he stops me holding my uninjured hand.
"Hey, wait!"
"What?"
"How is your hand?" He asks in concern sitting up on the bed.
"It's fine." I smile in assurance.
"Sit here" he orders. I oblige. He steps out of the bed & kneels in front of me studying me closely. He holds my head between his hands & skates his hands down to my cheeks, my side neck, my shoulder, my arms finding for any sign of serious injury & then they slip on my thighs, my knees, my calves & finally his hands grip my ankles.
"You are perfectly fine right?" He asks still holding my feet.
"You could say that for yourself. Didn't you just now check for yourself & found that I don't have any major injury?" I ask him arching a brow.
"Yeah. I know. But still." His worry his palpable through his eyes. He gazes my bandaged hand & then with the tip of his finger he starts circling over the bandage.
"How many stitches?" He asks.
"Um... 12" I tell. He press his lips to control his emotion. I know he loves me so much that my pain hurts him more than it does to me.
"You know what, Rishu? With this accident one of my life time wish came true" I say. My voice reflecting my excitement. Rishu's eyes went wide obviously guessing what was the wish which got fulfilled.
"No! You didn't" He tells horrified.
"Yes. I did" I nod grinning.
"You are mad" He scolds me. Who will not scold? I always fantasized being stitched on my skin & I always wanted to see it for myself bearing the pain. So I told the doctors not to give me anesthesia & knock me down. Still they gave me a numbing dose but I had my consciousness & for me it was a thrilling experience.
"Still you love me" I tell grinning. He smiles & pecks on my cheek.
"I would love you more if u stop pulling such stupid stunts."
"I will try"
"Rishu, I forgot to tell you..."
"What?"
"The doctor who treated me was damn handsome." I tell dreamily. A moment later I realize what I had just told. I grin sheepishly while Rishu glares at me murderously.
"You know nah... I am fond of doctors... So I just go gaga when I see doctor, mainly when they are hot. How I wish you were a doctor?"
"That's one wish of yours I could never fulfill... As you know..."
"Yeah you suck in biology" I giggle.
"First give me a chance to ravish you. Then tell me whether I suck in biology or not."
"Gah! Rishu... You have a dirty mind" I chide him though I could feel myself getting turned on.
"You are not getting late to college?" he asks.
"Yeah, I am... but..."
"But what?"
"I am just thinking whether I could take off & spend the day with you..."
"No! No! Don't do that. Study comes first. You go to college & evening we can go out. Anyway I have office too"
"Why you work like a machine? Why don't you take few days rest & start going to office?" I ask pissed. He shrugs unconcerned.
"Rishu, I know you were burdened with responsibilities at a very young age & you forgot to live your life. But at least now start enjoying your life. You have everything, houses, cars, 8 digit bank balance, a beautiful girlfriend sitting beside you but still you work without a break. It's not good for your health."
"It's for you baby. For our future. I want to give you anything & everything" he says with love shining in his eyes.
"Oh please, you are already stinking rich which can secure our next 10 generations & if I want anything then it will be only YOU because you are my everything. You get that?" I didn't realize I had tears till Rishu kiss my eyes sucking my tears away.
"My baby is growing hun?" he asks with a loving smile on his face.
"No. I love being a baby & pampered by you" I stuck my tongue out teasingly, then I giggle like a school girl.
"I love you. But don' worry I am big & ugly enough to look after myself & I will so that I can look after you, my precious baby." Rishu kisses my forehead.
"Kiss me again" I point to my lips. He kiss me softly, lovingly. He truly adores me.
"I will freshen up & come. Then I will kiss you & drop you off to college." he says standing up from the bed.
"Okay. And evening you should take me shopping" I order.
"Shopping? If I could recall you said you don't want anything but Me"
"Well, your baby Madhu wants only you but your girlfriend Madhu has I expectations on her boyfriend so come on time to pick me up & don't forget to bring your credit cards"
"Alright!"

(Rk's POV)
"Yo! Dude" Sultan says the moment I pick his call.
"Wassup man? Why you are not picking my calls?" he asks.
"Are you mad at me?" he asks.
"Will you let me talk? &Yes I am mad at you" I say, gritting my teeth.
"What, pray, have I done?" he asks.
"Why you didn't inform me about Madhu's accident?"
"Oh, so this is all about her."
"Answer me" I demand.
"Chill dude! She just wanted a new car so dashed the old one on a tree. You know she is one clever Crocodile" he says & laughs.
"Sultan, stop it man. I don't like you teasing or taunting my Madhu & her accident is not something to make fun of" I warn him over the phone.
"Okay, I am sorry."
"So?"
"Dude? You want me to get killed huh? That girl was already planning to murder me & if I had let you know about her accident then your friend won't be talking to you now" he says & acts as if sobbing.
"Stop your f**king acting."
"Okay!" he laughs. "you know I was so shocked to see madhu acting her age. She worries that you worry a lot for her so she didn't let anyone tell about her accident. She is starting to care for you"
"She always does care for me. I never doubt on that." I tell him matter of fact.
"May be" he says though not sure. But I know madhu loves no less than I do.
"okay, sultan, I will talk to you later. Gotta go & pick up madhu from her college & planning to go shopping"
"Shopping with her?" I know his eyes would have popped out in shock. "then you are dead"
I couldn't help but laugh. Then we end the call.

Its time for me to go & collect Madhu from college so I quickly put my white shirt & blue jeans on. I roll up the sleeves of my shirt & spike my hair with gel. I am ready to go.
I walk down stairs to see my parents & Madhu's parents ganged up.
"Hello uncle, aunty" I greet them. They smile at me warmly.
I turn to my mom & ask for the matter.
"We are leaving now to Pune..."
"Oh why?" I ask before letting her complete.
"You know Sharma uncle right? Her daughter is getting married. So we are going for that marriage. We will return home by tomorrow evening" mom tells.
"Oh!"
"Rishab beta, I know there is no need to say but still take care of Madhu... And haan... she will forget to take her meds so you please remind her" Malik uncle instructs me.
"Madhu is not going with you?" I ask.
"She has her exams coming up in this week. So she said she cant come."
"Oh okay. You don't worry uncle I will take care of Madhu" I assure him.
"Here." He hands me their house key. "If she wants to stay there give her the keys or if she wants to stay here then fine. Just make sure she doesn't get into any trouble." He says for which I chuckle. He has so much confidence on his daughter.
"I have kept food for you both in refrigerator, heat up & eat. Okay?" Mom tells me.
"Okay. Take care" I kiss her cheek.
"You too. & stay in your limits." My mom warns though grinning.
"I thought you want to see your grandchild soon"
"Chup! Badmaash!" She chides me. I see from the corner of my eyes padmini aunty turning pink. Oh no! Did I say it too loud for her to hear?
"Mom, this is not the first time madhu is staying alone with me" I remind her. We lived together for a year together under one roof, not only that right from our childhood, whenever her parents goes out they leave madhu with me to babysit her.
"But things have changed now" she says. Is she warning me to stay in limit or encouraging me to do something naughty with her soon to be bahu? She is giving me mixed signs.
But yeah, definitely things have changed now. We are not just friends now but lovers. You could say desperate lovers so in the heat of the moment we could do anything wild.
"And Rishu... Pool area is strictly forbidden to go"
"Mom, this is gross. Keep some faith on your son"
"Radhaji & I trust you implicitly, Rishab... But my daughter... You know she is crazy" Padmini aunty says. Oh so my mom & aunty both are teaming up against me... No, madhu. Poor baby.
"Chalo! Its getting late." My dad shouts waiting from car.
"Patil, drive slowly & safely" I instruct our driver. He nods.
"Bye!" I wave at them & once their car went out of my sight I rush to my car to pick up madhu.
--0--
I lean my back on my car as I wait for madhu, outside her college. My cell phone pings & I check it. Its Madhu's message.
*Wer r u? *
*outside ur colg * I text back
*oh! Mr. Bald is putting blade so i will be late *
*Lol. I will wait *
*hmm... I don't know how long it will take. U go home, I will come on my own. *
*then shopping? *
*tmrw!* she replies. I frown reading her text.
*I have work *
Then I wait for her reply but she didn't text me back.
What happened? Did she got pissed for mentioning work again?
For another two minutes I waited for her message contemplating whether to text her back or not.
"Rishu!" I hear madhu's voice so I look up to see her running towards.
"I love you so much" she shrieks & throws her uninjured arm around my neck & hugs me.
"Oh what an open display of affection" I tease her but I hug her back.
"Oh!" She looks around & grins like an idiot at the passersby.
"You said you will take time?" I ask as i lead her to the passenger side & open the door for her.
She waits for me to get settled & start the car before she answers.
"Thank you so much for helping me, Rishu" she grins widely. I didn't get for what she is thanking me.
"What?" I ask looking straight at the road ahead.
"Mr. Bald caught me when I was texting you & the next moment I was thrown out of the class & I came running to you." She says giggling.
"I am sorry... I shouldn't have disturbed you..."
"Oh please, I was the one who text you first..."
"But still..."
"You know what Rishu? I would have blood in my ears if i had stayed a minute longer hearing his blade lecture." She says Horrified & throws her head back on her seat & starts laughing. She is too dramatic & funny.
"Where to now?" I ask her when she stops laughing.
"Home"
"No shopping?"
"Mr. Workaholic, promise me that you will take me on this sunday"
"Why not now?"
"I don't think I can do shopping now. I am tired" she says & gently rubs her bandaged hand.
"Is it paining?" I ask.
"A little." She says smiling but I know she is making it light for me.
"Shall we see the doctor, baby?"
"No, Rishu. I am fine. It just... I somehow managed to write my notes with this broken hand & now its paining mildly. Once I go home & take my meds I will be okay"
"Hmm..." I agree though I really want to check her with the doctor.
"I have your house key. Our parents are gone to pune & they will return by tomorrow evening so you can stay either at my place or yours."
"Oh right. I actually forgot. Mom, told me morning itself."
"My mom has cooked food for us. If you wish we can have that or we can have out."
"Hmm... Rishu..." She hesitates.
"What?"
"I am thinking whether we could go to our apartment & spend the night together?"
"But... Your meds are at your home"
"Nothing will happen if I skip to take my medicines for one time"
"Your hand is already aching so... So you will need your pain killer pills"
"Just tell me you will take me to our apartment or not?"
"Okay. But before that we can go to your house, take your meds, then go to mine & have a early dinner & then I will take you to our apartment."
"Your are my darling" she pinches my cheek & pops 'nothing' in her mouth.
I shake my head & ruffle her hair.
__0__
"Rishu? Will we stay in this apartment after our marriage?" Madhu asks me. We took madhu's meds & had our dinner at my house & now we are in our apartment.
"I don't know. What you want? Stay with my parents so that you will be close to your parents too or be separate in this apartment or you want me to buy a new house for a new start? Choice is yours!" I really didn't give much thought about it yet.
"I am confused, Rishu" she says & sits on my lap. "I want us to live with our parents at the same time I want us to live alone like before. New house for new start idea also sounds interesting..." she wonders. I gently tuck a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Okay, we will get a new house nearer to our parents place & we will keep this apartment too. Weekends we can spend here as this apartment is pretty special for us as we started our life here. Is this plan okay for you?"
"I love your idea" she says & kisses my lips.
"You look tired." I say holding her head between my hands.
"No. I am not. Let's watch some movie" she insists.
Then we cuddle on the couch as we start watching a horror movie.
"Rishu, I am hungry, shall we order something to eat?" she asks leaning up from my shoulder.
"Sure, Baby. Pizza okay for you?" I ask.
She nods smiling. "And Choco Lava cake too" she adds. I quickly make our orders & resume watching the movie.
"I will go open the door" Madhu quickly runs before I could say a word, hearing the door bell.
"Madhu, wait" I grab my wallet & follow her.
"Ma'am, your order" I hear the pizza boy's voice. When I come straight to the view, I find the pizza boy lustfully eyeing my madhu but she is blissfully ignorant as she chats with him excitedly.
I stand behind Madhu, bristling anger as I give him a back off stare. He gets the cue & quickly steps back. I take the pizza boxes from madhu as she was struggling to hold it with one hand. Then I thrust the cash in his hand & shut the door right on his face & walk back to the living room, Madhu tagging behind me.
"You were quite rude with him"
"Yes, I was."
"Why?"
"He was flirting with you & you were giggling like an immature teenage girl"
"No, we were just talking"
"Talking? His eyes were all over your body. He is a pervert & you are a fool"
"You are so controlling" she retorts.
"Yes, I am" I say crossing my hands over my chest as I lean back on the wall, glaring at her.
"If you behave like a typical over possessive controlling & doubtful husband then... then I will divorce you" she says keeping her hand on her hip. I am not sure whether she is teasing or serious. I continue to glare her.
"Now, come on, I was just kidding. Wipe off that poker face" she says. So she was kidding. But I didn't get humored.
"No! No! I am just thinking why we need a divorce when we are already divorced. Just call off the second marriage & walk away if you don't like the way I am. I have learned to live without you" I know I sound bit harsh but I couldn't help. She blinks her eyes twice in disbelief hearing my outburst.
"Rishu, I am sorry... I didn't mean it..." she rushes to my side & holds my arm & rubs it to calm me.
"You won't call off our marriage right? You won't leave me right?" she panics & hugs me hard. She is trembling for head to toe.
"I won't leave you. You are mine. I cant afford to lose the best thing that has happened to me. You got that, Rishu?" she asks in between her sob.
"Madhu, watch your hard" I know she is pressing herself to me & holding me tight as if her life depends on it, ignoring her injured hand.
"Madhu..." I pull her away from me so that I can see her. I skirt my thumb over her lips to stop it from trembling.
"Stop crying" I order.
"Promise me you will marry me" she asks thrusting her hand forward for me to hold.
"No! I won't promise." I shake my head. She stares at me blinking her tears away.
"If you trust me then don't ask for a promise" I say & walk straight to my room.
"Pizza is getting cold" Madhu says sitting beside me on the bed & placing the pizza box on top of my stomach. I take it & place it on the bed & turn to my side, placing my head on my palm balancing with my elbow, I stare at her in disbelief. How can she cry one minute & act so cool the next minute?
She is eating the pizza ravenously not even bothering to ask me if I want or not.
"What you are looking at? Eat!" Her audacity is driving me insane.
I sit up & take a slice of pizza & start eating. I know she won't take no for an answer. She will pester me till I eat the pizza.
"Hot chilli pepper" I chuckle.
"Did you call me that?" She asks raising her eye brow.
"No. Jalapeo" I pluck out the jalapeno from the pizza & show it to her.
"I love it" I tell her & slowly place it between my lips & suck it in. She eyes me biting her lower lip.
"Eat" I command. She resumes eating her cheese pizza like a small child dripping the cheese on her dress & splotching it on the side of her mouth.
I wipe the cheese off her mouth with my finger & put the same cheesy finger in my mouth licking it.
"What was that??" She asks.
"Cheesy-Cheesy thing" I wink at her making her blush.
"You want chocolate cake?" She asks.
"Nope!" Madhu has a sweet tooth. Whereas I eat sweet items rarely.
I notice her struggling with the wrapper of the cake so I help her to peel it out.
"Okay. I have decided" she says tasting a spoon of her cake.
"What?"
"We are gonna name our daughter Lava" Daughter?
"Are you pregnant?"
"Nah! In future, we will name our baby girl Lava" Phew! For a second I got panicked.
"What? Noway! I don't want my daughter to erupt like a volcano"
"Nah... Not that lava... This Choco lava. So sweet & delicious" she offers me a spoon. I agree this tastes good but it surely is not gonna be my baby girl's name.
"Pizza & Lava gonna be our kids name" Yuck!
"I don't like it" such an idiotic names.
"Then how about Adam & Eve?" She asks enthusiastically.
"What? No!"
"Why? Adam kundra & Eve kundra sounds great."
"Will you stop blabbering?" I don't like any of her suggestions.
"Hmm... Jim Jam??" she asks. This girl is out of her mind.
"Isn't Jim Jam a biscuit name?" I ask her shocked. she want to name my kids after a biscuit? How dare she?
"So what?" She asks offended.
"Shut up & eat, Madhu"
"You are too bossy" she pouts.
"Me? Well, you are too annoying at times." I say twisting my mouth showing my irritation but she smiles sweetly.
"Rishu, how many kids you want?" Why she is so desperate to get pregnant?
"First you grow up, baby, then we can think about having kids" I kiss her cheek lovingly.
"I am a baby only to your eyes... but for others I am a beautifully grown up twenty one years girl."
"Okay, big lady, babies will happen when the right time comes, now you are done with eating, so could you kindly vacate my room. I want to sleep & you need to rest."
"Nope!" God! Sometimes my baby brat can be hard to handle.
"What?"
"I m gonna sleep with you."
"I don't think that's a good idea" I don't want her sleeping close to me. I might lose my control.
"Why?"
"Um... I have given my word to my mom that I will stay in limits"
"Oh please, I have no intention to rape you" I take that as an insult.
"I doubt you" she seems so ready to pounce on me. I should be careful.
"Oh-huh! Don't act as if you are new to it."
"What?"
"You are a player but now acting as a saint." she sounds angry.
"Didn't you tell your first time was good? So I know you have done everything"
"What the f**k!"
"100 Rupees" she asks grinning.
"Gah!" I groan in frustration.
"Didn't you tell me in Singapore while playing 'Truth or Dare' that your first sex was good?"
"That was a lie"
"Oh! Was it bad?" No doubt she is stupid. Only she can interpret a statement in the wrong way.
"God! I never had sex with anyone not even with my wife."
"Really?"
"You don't know?" I ask her back.
"I know nothing had happened between us but with other girls? Sultan told me you are a sex predator?"
"That bas***d loves to defame me." before Madhu I am gonna kill him.
"So that was a lie?"
"Not exactly"
"What do you mean?"
"I have just had starters, never had main course or dessert" I sigh.
"Huh?" she asks confused.
"It means I have flirted & dated so many girls...And kiss was the maximum level I have crossed."
"Have you kissed Nisha while dating?" she asks, her eyes burning with jealousy. Why Nisha in particular? She is a nice friend to me now.
"Yes, we have kissed each other" I tell her honestly.
"How many times?"
"I don't keep counts"
"You liked the kiss the way you like it when we kiss?"
"At that time, I liked it. But now it doesn't mean anything to me."
"Why you are brutally honest?" she asks sadly.
"Because I don't want to hide anything from you"
"So you are a virgin?" she asks suddenly beaming with joy.
"You want me to spell it out loud?"
"Why you didn't you tell me before?"
"That was my little secret." I tell her.
"Oh! But why you maintained it a secret?"
"It will affect my image if it comes out." I shrug.
"What image?"
"A play boy image" I grin proudly. She smirks.
"You know what? I always wanted a virgin husband" she tells me blushing.
"So you are gonna get one soon"
"Yes"
"Madhu..." "What?"
"This secret should not go out of this 4 walls" I warn her.
"Hmm... okay"
"Promise me?"
"No, I wont promise. If you trust me then don't ask for a promise" she throws my own words back at me making me suppress my laugh.
"Will you let me sleep with you now?" she asks losing her patience.
"Okay!" Arguing with her is a waste of time. I shuffle over & pull the duvet back, inviting her to join me. She lies beside me & gently wraps her hand over my torso. I place my hand over hers.
"Rishu, what you see there?" she points her hand to the ceiling. I smile knowing what she is referring to. Our laser gun night!
"Ceiling" I feign innocence.
"On that?"
"Fan is hanging" I continue teasing.
"No! Not that! Don't you see 'stars?, moon?, solar system?, flowers?, dora?, mickey? &..."
"And what?" I ask. She puts an arm around me & draws herself close to me. Then I hear her mutter softly "I love you"
I bestow a gentle kiss on her forehead & whisper back "I love you too"
