Love Saves The Lonely - Kanuma FF (19 Parts Updated, Complete)

"Today the daughter of our two heroes Suraj and Sandhya catches another criminal" said a reporter as Kanak Rathi was filmed arresting somebody

It was a few hours later when Kanak had finished signing the necessary papers, that she left the police depot

Memories of her mother and fathers sacrifice weighed heavily on her mind as she walked down the lonely street

"Bhaiya can I just have a coffee" asked Kanak as she sat at the lonely stall

She watched as a man made his way over, he payed for her coffee and placed it on her table
"You do enough for this country, its the least I can do"

Kanak smiled up at him "Please, sit"
So he did.

"You seem distressed about something"
Kanak smiled softly
"I think its just been one of those days, where I did something good and all I want is to hear my parents say they are proud but I will never hear that"

The man smiled "The loss of a parent is never easy, let alone two. Keep rest in your mind when I say they are very proud, and you may not be able to hear them say it, but as they watch down their hearts are filled with pride for all you do for this country "

"Thank you again, you seem like youve lost someone "
The man looked up to the sky "Yes, my father. Id sit on his shoulders and at that time it was possible to do anything, I could reach the sky if I wanted to"

Kanak reached out her hand, placing it in his "Im sure you make him very proud, your heart is pure just like his I assume"

His eyes told a story of pain and despair, but his smile told many other things.
Kanak picked up her phone "Hello Bhaboo, yes I will be home soon, okay bye"

Looking up the man had gone, she had no idea as to why she had opened up so much to him.
But there was just something about this nameless man

It was a bright and early morning and Kanak felt freer and happier to start her job.

Saying goodbye to her family, she started another walk to the police depot
She watched as the kids played in the rain, smiling

A man pulled his car over, getting out he held rainjackets out for all of them
Kanak walked over to see who would do such a good dead when she came face to face with her nameless stranger from last night


"Officer Rathi, how can I help you"
Kanak smiled again "Kanak, please"
The man nodded "Did you want a lift"
Kanak shook her head "I prefer to walk"

"Then allow me to walk with you, lessens pollution"
Kanak nodded as she walked with him

"So, what do you do for work"
The man smiled again, one of those heart stopping smiles
"I am an aryuvedic doctor"
"So youre used to helping people then"

He nodded, pulling her out of the way of a car he had her pinned to the lampost, her breathing was heavy and all of her focus was on his hands that rested on her waist

"I dont treat women though"
Kanak let out a deep breath, her voice was a whisper "Why"

Pulling back they continued to walk "Because I am a man, its wrong in my religion"
Kanak nodded "With no disrespect to your beliefs, isnt it wrong to discriminate who we help we are all humans in need"
"None, taken, well have a good day Kanak"

She hadnt realised just how long they had been talking, waving she watched him walk away

Again, she had forgot to ask his name, shaking her head she walked in

"Ma'am we have just got intel that a child marriage is going to take place "
Kanak nodded as she walked back out and sat in the car
"Do we know who is running this"
"A man named Uma Shankar"

Kanak sighed heavily as she reached the place
Holstering her gun she leaned against the wall "1,2,3"

Knocking the door down she pointed her gun straight
"Everyone down now" she shouted


"Ma'am thats him"
Pointing her gun across the room she froze, Uma Shankar was her friendly stranger?

Was this all part of a plan, to get to know me to trick me? She couldnt help but think the worst as she walked forward and handcuffed him

Her boss was right about one thing, in this job , there was no such thing as friends

"Kanak wait"
Turning to face Uma she glared "Its Miss Rathi to you, get in"

Uma sighed as he sat in the van and waited for them to drive
This was all a misunderstanding, but he had no way of proving that whatsoever


Arriving at the police depot, Kanak pulled Uma out, taking him to the questioning room she sat me down

She wanted to scream at him for tricking her, but she didnt want her seniors to know she had been so stupid as to trust a stranger with her issues

"Why did you get those children married"
Uma sighed "No matter what I say you wont trust me"

Kanak slammed her hand on the table "I did trust you, and you betrayed my trust"

Uma stood up as he rubbed her back, she hated herself for crying

"I didnt"
"Dont touch me Uma Shankar, you are a criminal, nothing more "

"See! If i told you the truth you wouldnt trust me"
Kanak turned to face him "Try me"

"Okay, I didnt do it"
Kanak looked into his eyes, the eyes that she thought she knew

Her nameless stranger now just another pawn against her
For once she thought she had found a friend

Shaking her head she sighed loudly
"Then what happened "

Uma sighed "I was trying to save the kids"
"Why didnt you tell me this earlier "

"Would you have believed me"

Kanak couldnt bare being in the same room as him, the guilt eating her up

Walking out she prayed her trust in him was not wrong

"Kanak I need you to watch him tonight "
Nodding she sat outside the cell as she watched him eat

Sliding the tray over to her he smiled "You havent ate either"
Tears filled her eyes at his state, his wrists red from the handcuffs

A hand wiped her tear, looking up she grabbed his hand "I'm sorry, i'm not used to having friends or people I can trust"

Uma smiled as he squeezed her hand "Take it as a learning curve"
Kanak nodded

Her eyes flew down to their hands, pulling back she smiled

"So whats your faviourate colour"
Kanak thought for a while "purple, you"
Looking in her eyes "It was blue, now its chocolate brown"

Kanak blushed as she laughed, shaking her head
Uma drummed his fingers on the floor " tu
itni khoobsurat hai
fida deedaar pe tere
mukammal ishq ho mera
zara sa pyaar to de de"

Kanak looked up at him
"Your turn"
Kanak thought for a while then

"Naino mein sapna
Sapno mein sajna
Sajna pe dil aa gaya
O sajna pe dil aa gaya"

Uma clapped "very good, very good"
"Janam janam janam saath chalna yunhi

Kasam tumhe kasam aake milna yahin

Ek jaan hai bhale do badan ho judaa

Meri hoke hamesha hi rehna

Kabhi na kehna alvida"

Kanak clapped "Very filmy lines"
Uma bowed "your go"

Kanak thought for a while before standing up
"Kahoon mein kya, karoon mein kya
Sharam aajati hai"

Uma smiled, joining in
"Na yun tadpa ke meri jaan
Nikalti jaati hai"

"Tu aashiq hai, mera sacha
Yakin to aane de"
Kanak stood closer to the bars as Uma did to

"Tere dil mein agar shaq hai
To bas phir jaane de"
Turning around he pretended like it didnt bother him as she tried not to laugh

" Itni jaldi laaj ka, ghunghat na kholoongi
Sochoongi phir soch ke, kal parson bolungi"

Uma put his hand on his chest and fell to the floor, jumping up he grasped her hand through the bars

"Tu aaj bhi haan na boli
Oye Kudiye teri doli
Le na jaaye, Koi Aur"

Kanak laughed as a jailer shouted "Be quiet its nearly morning"
Uma watched as she laughed, his eyes shined in admiration

Neither had realised how quickly the night had passed as they sang and had conversations


"Ma'am, the papers have just come through that you asked for, he is innocent we found the real one"
Kanak sighed in relief as she unlocked Uma's jail cell


Uma thanked her "May I walk you home"
Kanak nodded as she looked at her watch 7am, she hadnt slept all night

Uma stretched as he walked outside
Kanak smiled at him
"Im sorry for "

Pressing his finger to her lips he shook his head "no sorry betwen friends"

Kanak smiled before nodding
"How does breakfast sound "

"Like the best thing in the world, come on"
Uma followed Kanak as she walked into the cafe

After placing their orders they sat down
"Are you tired"
Kanak shook her head "Im used to not having much sleep,are you"

"I have good enough company to stay awake for"

As the food arrived, Kanak ate her food quickly
Uma laughed "quite a big appetite hm"

"It was a long night"
"That it was"

Uma leant forward, wiping her lip
She shuddered as she leant back
He chuckled at her reaction before standing up he waited for her to get up to

Paying for the food they continued to walk till they arrived at her house

"Thank you for the night, the breakfast and walking me home"
Uma smiled "No, thank you's between friends either "

Kanak nodded as she walked inside,waving him goodbye she said hello to her family and went to rest

For once, Kanak didnt feel so alone

Kanak woke up the next morning, she had slept all day
It was her day off and she couldn't wait to spend some time with her family

"Kanak sit down "
Sipping her tea she sighed as she sat down next to Santosh
"I know, your career is everything and you want nothing more than to make your parents proud but dont you think its time to settle down "

Kanak huffed as she stood up "Bhaboo please I dont want to have this conversation again"
"Kanak, im getting old, all I want is to make sure youre not alone"

Alone, something she had been until a few days ago
Turning to Santosh she sat back down "Okay, ill consider it"

Bhaboo hugged her, smiling "Theres this lovely man, I think would be great for you"
Kanak smiled as she watched Bhaboo stand up and make calls

She wanted nothing more than to discuss this with Uma
Bringing up his files, she found his number

Typing it in, she held her phone close
"Was this right"
Kanak thought for a second before pressing the dial button

"Hello, Uma Shankar speaking"
"Hi, Uma it's Kanak"

"Hello, how are you"
Kanak couldnt help but smile "i'm okay, are you free to meet "

Uma looked down at his appointment book "90 minutes, our cafe"
Kanak agreed, a smile remained on her face at the thought of their cafe

This is a very different story from what I usually write, so am just testing it out, thank you for giving it a go!

Kanak arrived at the cafe, getting the drinks she sat down

Uma ran over, out of breath "I'm sorry im late but you have to see this"
Kanak smiled "what"
"Im not taking no for an answer"

Pulling her up by her arm, he dragged her to the scene
A clown stood shooting water pistols at some people

Uma heard a shrill scream, looking next to him, he realised it was from Kanak, her hands covered her eyes as she jumped on the spot
"Kanak are you okay"

As he rested his hand on her arm she jumped quickly into his arms, his reflexes were quick enough to catch her, as he picked her legs up to

"I hate clowns"
Uma burst out with laughter "You fight criminals everyday and youre scared of someone in a costume"

Kanak shook her head, burying it more into his arm "please just take me away"
Uma nodded as he walked forward away from the clown

A hooded figure tipped something into their drinks, stirring it they popped the lids back on and ran away

"Okay were back"
Kanak slid down as she slapped his shoulder "Never do that again"

Uma promised not to as he sat down with Kanak
"So, whats up"

"My Bhaboo wants to get me married and I dont know what to do "
Uma sipped his drink " Do you want to"

Shrugging she tapped her fingers on the cup before lifting it and drinking out of it
"I dont know, I guess life is lonely, but I dont want to marry a stranger "

Uma nodded as he finished his drink "Everyone is a stranger at first, then you pick someone"
Kanak thought for a while before agreeing, they decided to go for a walk on the bridge

The hooded figure returned, binning the cups they chuckled "Tonight I will ruin your career, I can see the headlines now, cop has a secret affair with ex prisoner"

Laughing they followed the couple, camera in hand

Kanak fell forward into Uma who caught her as they fell onto the bench

Uma's fingers trailed up her arm as she reached forward squeezing his cheeks "You know, you are sooo cuteee"

Uma lifted her arm putting it around his neck as she climbed onto his lap
Her fingers glided across his adams apple

Grasping his chin she pushed it away "How do i know I can trust you"

Uma thought for a second "Trust exercises "

Pushing Kanak up he spread out his arms "Fall and I will catch you"

As she pushed herself back she knocked him over as they fell onto the grass

"You didnt catch me" Kanak pouted
Pushing her lips with his finger he chuckled "Youre just heavy"

Pushing her off him, she led next to him, head resting on his arm

He pointed upwards "Look at the stars, wow, sooo bright"
Pausing he looked into her eyes "But your eyes shine brighter when you smile"

Kanak laughed as she wrapped her arm around his waist and snuggled up to him, yawning "I'm sleepy and you are like a teddy bear"

Uma rested his head atop hers as he allowed his eyes to close

The hooded figure took more pictures before throwing the camera up in the air and catching it, laughing they walked away
