SS - True Redemption! Updtd Part4 Pg8 - 26th Feb - Page 6

Gazing outside the window, Ahem was standing watching the changing complexion of the morning colors. How amazingly the weather, seasons and the days changed as if it was destined to be like this always for eternity. How pleasant it feels when one season is followed by the other, a day is followed by the night. Nothing remains permanent in life however hard one may try to do so.

Never ever had he thought that the one he had hated like anything would make a permanent place in his heart without being affected by any external conditions. How scared had he become that night two weeks back when he was returning with her from the mall. One mistake and his life would have fallen apart without him ever being able to recover from the blow.

Ahem could not help thinking of his past two years with Gopi...how he had got blessed with such a wife even though he didn't deserve a bit of her love.

But thankfully nothing of the sort happened. Gopi had alerted him at just the right moment. But in an attempt to prevent the mishap, he had let the car collide with the pedestrian walkway. Nothing had happened to him but Gopi had her forehead banged on the edge of the glove box due to the strong impact.

It felt that the world had come crashing all over him seeing her in pain and lot of blood oozing from her ruptured skin. She had gone unconscious and he had gone berserk trying to wake her up. He had no clue how he managed to race to the hospital and got her admitted. But the doctor assured that it was a minor accident and there was nothing to worry.

But he didn't listen to the doctor and spent the whole week with her at the hospital. He had attended to her thoroughly taking care of very minute things in her recovery. She had seemed to be surprised at him looking after her so well and kept quiet most of the times giving him a bewildered look.

And here she was lying in their room, yeah their room on the bed sleeping peacefully. She had almost recovered and looked so beautiful in the golden rays of sunlight reflecting on her face. But it wasn't only the way she looked, it was what was inside her beautiful being, everything from her intelligence and courage to her wit, from her patience to her faith in him and the special smile she gave only to him. He would die million deaths, if he would have that many lives, just to see that smile. He knew he would never want anyone else for as long as he lived. He would rather spend the rest of his life alone than with someone else. The thought only just made him shudder and shiver deep inside.

He walked to the bed and stood close to her. He wanted to drink this moment and savour it for the rest of his life. The divine, placid look of hers was making him tremble uncontrollably out of love he had started feeling for her. He wanted to touch her face and kiss her rosy lips and cuddle into the bed with her. But he didn't want to disturb her then and didn't want to rush into things so soon. She had just recovered and as there was no physical intimacy between them earlier, he couldn't come close to her and gave her wrong interpretations about everything.

First he needed to win her confidence and trust that he stood by her now whatsoever be and was hers, only hers. And for that he needed to spend a lot of time with her, know her as a person, reveal his inner self to her and have good memories between them which would become the foundation of their new life together.

He finally decided what needs to be done and looking at the emerging sunrise outside the window, he made a promise to himself that he would bring a new sunshine in her life and would not let her remember her dark days at all.

"Mom, I want to talk to you." he went to her mom's room.

"Yes Ahem, say what you want to say." Kokila said.

"Mom I don't know what to say because I have never ever opened myself in front of anyone till now. I don't know how to express my feelings. More than that I am scared of doing so as well. But I think if I won't talk to you about it today I might be late in giving my best at handling the circumstances and current situation.

I have been shattered lately with the thoughts of losing Gopi that night. You also had a tough time seeing her in pain. She has always seen me above everyone else and I realize that now. And now as she has recovered from the accident, I want to take her out for a few days, maybe for two weeks. Some place away from this city so that she is able to recover and rejuvenate not just her body but her mind as well. She has suffered a lot in the past and now I want to give her some real good memories at the start of our new life together." Ahem asked her mom.

"Ahem, I know how you must be feeling since many days, I do understand but what about your office and work. Who'll take care of everything while you are gone. I don't want any complications to arise so you think properly before taking a decision. I don't want to stop you from doing what you wish. Its your life and your choice how you want to go on from now on. All I want from you is you fulfil all your responsibilities, towards your family, wife and work." Kokila replied.

"Thank you mom for understanding my feelings when I need you the most. Don't worry about office. Jigar is beginning to fulfil all his duties with utmost importance, so everything would be managed properly behind my absence. Its just a matter of two weeks. I'll be back soon and Gopi would be revitalized as ever to take charge of the house again. Thanks once again mom." Saying so, Ahem went away.

Kokila couldn't help but just gaze at his son intently, whose figure was vanishing away from her vision slowly. Was he the same Ahem she had brought up? He had changed to be such a caring and loving human being. What her vau's love couldn't do, the thought of losing her had done. But she was happy for both of them. Maybe now she would have a lively house she has always dreamt of with chirping and shrilling noises of little ones she could play with and run after. The thought of those little monkeys amused her to her very core.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ahem came from the office with his emotions running very high. Whole day in the office he had been so excited at the thought of going with Gopi on a holiday where he would be alone with her, no one to disturb them at all. He had left his imaginations running wild and his heart fluttered at having all of Gopi's love and attention just for him as she remained so busy in this house attending to everyone's needs.

He had rushed to the room in the morning to tell her about their vacation together but she was in the washroom. So as he was getting late for office, he decided to tell her about it after coming back home.

He headed straight to the kitchen, knowing that yesterday only his mom had allowed her to work in the kitchen from this day onwards. She was standing near the kitchen sink with her back to him, washing some vessels. She was wearing a bottle green coloured saree, his favourite color. While doing up the cleaning, she was humming a song as well in her melodious voice...Chookar mere mann ko kiya tune yeh ishaara, badlaa yeh mausam badlaa jag saara...chookar mere mann ko...This was the first time he had heard her singing such a song, maybe she was very happy now-a-days with the growing closeness between them, ...so seeing her happy he felt happy too!

Never ever he had noticed her in such a manner. She was absorbed in doing her work with full devotion singing to herself, like she was living in her own reverie. Short and lean stature, with her long and black silky hair flowing down in waves reaching the sexy curves of her thin waist. The saree pallu had moved a little sidewards revealing her naked neck and waist. Her skin seemed to be so creamy and milky white. His urge to go and hold her tight and kiss her neck and back was going out of his control. The temptation was so great that he could just not keep his mind straight.

As if being drawn towards her by some unfamiliar magical pull, his steps led him slowly close to where she was standing. Standing behind her, he could inhale her fragrance and softness, melting his whole being. She was though so engrossed in doing her work and didn't notice him coming so close to her.

He was still gazing at her back and inhaling her sweet smell that he didn't realize when his hands moved upwards to touch her neck, his thumb caressing her just under the left ear. She turned to face him with a start and felt her pulse leap upon seeing him. He looked straight into her eyes with a passion and desire that he had never felt before. He just felt like losing himself into those eyes, into those pink lips of hers and forget everything else.

She stood motionless watching him observe her like this and couldn't utter a single word and felt drawn to him, to get dissolved in him. Her hands fell down on the sides of her curves and eyelids dropped to shut her eyes in the intense flame of passion . His arms went around her bare neck to wrap her little close to him and bent down to kiss her lips. He was about to do so when the whistle of the cooker blew up!

He shot back from her with a startle.

"...hunh...Gopi...he kept looking sideways...I had come here to tell you something." was all he could muster saying in his hoarse voice.

"Ji Ahemji! What is it? Tell me." She seemed a bit disappointed with the whistle blowing at the wrong time.

He swallowed all his emotions and thoughts and tried not to sound shaky and nervous as his passion and desire to feel her skin was running in full tempo. "Now you have almost recovered from the accident, I was thinking why not go for a vacation. Last time we had gone to Switzerland but as I was very busy I could not do much for you there." Remembering their last trip to Switzerland, he shuddered deep within, feeling such a remorse for the way he had treated and abused her like some waste junk.

There was an eerie silence that enveloped the surroundings for a few moments. She could not believe her ears and kept looking at him with her big round eyes wide open, with his words ringing in her ears. "Ahemji! Are you taking me out for a holiday somewhere?" she questioned him again thinking she must have heard wrongly.

"Yes we are going out for two weeks in a "Star Cruise" to Mauritius. I have taken mom's permission and made all the necessary arrangements required for it. While in the office today, I've booked with the tour organizers and we would be leaving next week so you do all the packing and other stuff properly but you do not need to exert yourself as we have one week to do the necessary preparations. So, just take your time in doing things." instructed Ahem to her.

So how and when they'll go to Mauritius and what would happen there between both of them? How it would affect their love story and will Ahem realize what a gem Gopi is and will he be able to know more sparkling attributes in her wife! Stay tuned to read more😛😊
