Teri Meri Audhri kahani ss-ch 17( 1) on pg 100-4/4/17 - Page 61

Jodha had finished bathing and when she came back to her room she was surprised to see her dear hubby still there waiting patiently, with breakfast. He should have be off to work but presently he seems to be much in love that he had forgotten his work. Jodha decides to knock some sense in his mind and clear her throat to garner his attention.

He looked at her, her wet tresses adorning her face, just made him want her more. Jodha understood his gaze and nodded her head indicating a no. Jalal understood her indication and smirked as if saying he never takes no for an answer.

She blushes a little and he smiled and he called her to have breakfast she nodded and sat next to him, they ate in silence, stealing glances at each other. For a moment their eyes meet Jalal eyed towards the bed and he could see her eyes pop wide open and then she blushed...

He came near to her ear and said- Itna na sharmo Jodha varna lagta hai aj hum is kamre se bahare he nahi jayenge(Don't blush this much Jodha otherwise I think I won't leave this room) and he playfully slides his finger from face to her neck and then slides it down her hand, she shuts her eyes in pleasure..

He smiles seeing her melt with his one touch, he thought of approaching her. But Jodha had other plans of troubling her she composed herself... He pulled her closer and brushed his lips with hers, he wasn't going to initiate the kiss he had decided; rather he was going to play to see until when she could control herself.

She could feel the goosebumps on her body the effect that he had on her but she decided to play on, she backed off to his surprise and got up with a jolt and she turned towards his opposite side and bit her lips controlling the laugh which was escaping from her mouth, and turns towards Jalal.

His expression was worth watching, she could've died laughing but that's' what she couldn't afford now. She kept on repeating in her mind as if it were a mantra- Dare you laugh Jodha.. Dare you... She let out a deep breath and said- Jalal hume kam hai Hassan bhi utj gaye honge aur phir hume Ammijan se kam hai, hum chalta hain ( Jalal I have work, Hassan also may be awake by now and I've some work with Ammijan)and she is about to leave..

She could see the disappointment on his face and even though it was a bit evil for her loving husband she admitted that she enjoyed it. He says- Par... She says- kya par ... var kuch nahi Jalal.. tumhe bhi kafi karye hain na.. Jao( no ifs and buts you also have enough work Jalal go)

Jalal gets up and is about leave when decides to kiss her again, but Jodha being Jodha knew him, as soon he was about to kiss her she keeps her hand on her lips and he kisses her hands, and she gives a little giggle.

Jalal understands her plan and says playfully- agar hume voh nahi mila jo hume chaiye toh hum apse baat nahi krenge Jodha...(If I don't get what I want I will not talk to you.)Jodha causally responds- toh mat kariye baat( Then don't talk) Their eyes meet as if saying challenge accepted. A challenge where who falls first. Both were ready to lose, but both wanted to see till when could the other control ... And they leave.

The day passes in a slow pace, both were dying to see each other yet they decided to live in the bliss of ignorance for a while, because they knew if they faced each other that would be the end of the challenge... And a part of them agreed that this challenge was going to be fun. But then Jalal being Jalal sent her a flower each hour just increasing her restlessness...

Jodha who had been lost in her thoughts was strolling in Angoori Bagh in the hope that the calm and soothing evening wind would calm her racing heart, but alas! It didn't. She was ready to lose the challenge she decides to go to Jalal and accept her defeat.

When she turns she sees one of the most dreaded sights in front of her, which she only had encountered in nightmares. There he was walking with the guards towards the prison. His eyes still fixed lustfully on her. The days that she had almost forgotten came rushing back to her as if they had just happened moments ago...

Tears welled up in her eyes; she could feel her heart beat increase, her legs were growing weak, and she needed him. She couldn't remove her eyes from him, because she was afraid that he might approach her. How would he approach? She didn't know, but she couldn't risk ... Even if he was a prisoner she couldn't risk ... She couldn't go again through the same trauma... A part of rationalized that he couldn't come near her, a part of her still had the fear of the inevitable...

Tears gushed down her eyes rigorously she needed him, his strong arms, her safe haven, where she could dive in and forget the whole world... Jalal she chanted his name softly, it seems that her voice had also deceived her... Hoping that he would hear her out, her legs final gave up no she wasn't visiting the world of unconsciousness, she just couldn't hold on to herself.

She shut her eyes, in despair, she was just about to hit the ground, when she felt a strong muscular arms capture, she was fearing the worst, but she didn't panic because she recognized that touch, she was more than ever relieved to find him next to her, she sat on the ground gently because her feet still didn't support her, he also sat beside her, and immediately captured her shivering body into a tight hug.

He hugged her until shivering had reduced to some extent, and he gently stroked her hair, but he didn't stop her from crying. He gently planted a kiss on her forehead...and broke the hug, but she was stubborn enough to stay in his embrace, as soon as he broke hug she again forcefully hugged him and he reciprocated the same.

He smiled at her stubbornness and gently called her- Jodha... She won't response, because she didn't know what to say, she was embarrassed with the fact that she acted weak, she wasn't supposed to act weak.

She composed herself and gently opened he eyes and there his intense black eyes, met her brown ones, a thousand words and emotions were conveyed... She could see his orbs carrying her pain; he gave a forced smile and again planted a kiss on her forehead assuring her everything was alright. Whereas the fact was he was trying to assure himself that everything was alright...

He says- chale, she nods... He gets up and gives her a hand she gets up, but her legs felt wobbly, she tried to walk as she didn't want to stress him more because he was already going through enough stress. But her legs won't stop shaking...

He understood her problem and gently scooped her in his arms, and she genuinely tried to give a smile but it won't work, she had to get things under control. She had to bring her hay wired self back to normalcy.
