Chapter 20

It is now morning and Kashish opens her eyes and feels as though she was in heaven...Well she was wrapped up like an angel in the arms of her love,her husband,her Sujal....She just remembered last nights events and she began to blush whilst lost in him...He opened his eyes and thought what a perfect moment this was...She quickly lowered her gaze and he just smiled at her holding her tighter...She just looks at him and moves his hand from her shoulder to get up....she was about to get up but her hair got stuck in his shirt.........she tried to unfold but her hands were shaking and he was enjoying emotions of her face.......he just holds her hands which were shaking and looks at her........

Sujal: Kya hua...main madat karun..........

Kashish: na kehti tab bhi nahi karte.......

Sujal: haa kyunki tumhe jitne pal khud ke kareeb rakh sakun mere dil ke liye utna hi achcha hai...to tum na kaho to mein nahin karunga...

Kashish: Sujal..nikalo na muje dard ho raha hai........

Sujal: thik hai...tumhare hisse ka dard mera dil uthalega...

He begins to unfold her hair...

Sujal: lo...Hogaya...

She just looks at him for while and than sits up and about to stand up from the bed when something wasnt letting her go...........she turned back to look and it was Sujal who was holding her saree.........he just pulled it back and she just sits by him and he just puts his head on her lap......Sujal looks up at her...

Sujal: shayad tum kuch bhool rahi ho...

Kashish: kya....

Sujal: Meri morning wish...

She bends down and kiss his forehead.........

Kashish: I Love You..........

He smiles and holds her hand kissing her palm...

Sujal: I love you too Jaan!

Kashish: kya kaha tumne abhi.......

Sujal: Maine?..Kuch nahin...I love you hi to kaha......

Kashish: nahi tumne iske bad bhi kuch kaha......

Sujal: Acha?Muje to kuch yaad nahin aa raha...Kya kaha maine?

He tries to hide his smile

Kashish: Sujal tum jaan bujke aisa kar rahe ho....tumne abhi abhi muje...

Sujal: abhi abhi tumhe kya Kashish?

Kashish: kuch nahi jane do......

Kashish moves his head and try to get up.......

Sujal: Aise kaise jaane dun Jaan!

He holds her hand and pulls her back.......she just falls on him..........He tucks the hair falling on her face behind her ear and then holds her tight around her waist...

Sujal: Itni asaani se to nahin jaane de sakta....Kyun jaan...

Kashish: kya kar rahe ho tum Sujal.......chodo muje.....

Sujal: Mann nahin kar raha...main tumhe hamesha apne itne kareeb rakhna chahta hoon...

Kashish: main bhi to rehna chahti hoon.........lekin abhi dair ho rahi hai..........

Sujal: ek baar i love you kaho na...Phir chod dunga promise...

Kashish: pakka.......

Sujal: Pakka promise!

She goes to his ear and whispers.......

Kashish: I love u Sujal.........

He tilts over her and goes near her ear whispering..

Sujal: I love you too...

He then smiles at her and moves back...

Sujal: Ab main tumhe nahin rokunga

She gets up and gets her clothes and leaves for washroom.........and he just sits on the bed looking at the washroom door and smiling...

After some time she came out of the washroom and looked at him...He was still smiling whilst looking at towards her...

Kashish: Sujal chalo tum taiyaar ho jao main nashta lagati hoon...

Sujal: thik hai main taiyaar hoke aata hoon...

He takes his clothes and leaves for the washroom whilst she was making the bed..He goes to the washroom door and turns back...

Sujal: Kashish...

Kashish looks up at him..

Kashish: Kuch chahiye?

He just blows a kiss at her and goes inside smilng...She just smiles blushingly and goes to make the breakfast...

Kashish: pata nahi tum dono ka mere bigar kya hota.........chalo waha shayad mil jayenge........

They both look at each other and smile and then just follow Kashish quietly into the shop....They were looking at the clothes when Sujal's mobile rings...

Sujal: Hello...Hello....haa Mr Sharma....Hello...ek minute hold kijiyega...

He turns towards Angad and Kashish...

Sujal: haa main bas abhi aaya....

He leaves the shop and goes outside to attend the call...After 10 minutes he walked back in and began walking towards the shop that Kashish and Angad were in when he just stopped midway and twisted his head to the right...He saw a beautiful diamond necklace in the window of a shop...He walked up towards the shop and went inside to have a look at it...He picked it up and just smiled...

Sujal (to himself): Yeh Kashish pe kitna khoobsoorat lagega...

He takes it to the counter...

Sujal: Excuse me...Will you pack this for me please...

He buys the necklace and pays for it and then puts it in his pocket with a smile...He left the shop and went back to Kashish and Angad...

Sujal: Kuch milla?

Kashish: ab ise pack karake ghar chale.........

Sujal: Haan chalo...

They both go to the counter and Sujal paid for the saree...They then left the mall and headed towards their house...

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

Its now 11pm and Sujal was in his room working on his laptop when Kashish sees him...She walked upto him and hugged him from the back...Resting her head on his back...

Sujal: Kya hua Kashish...Kuch chahiye?

Kashish: Sujal kab tak kaam karoge.........ab chalo na so jate hai.....aaj main bhi thak gayi hoon........

Sujal: Bas 20 minute ka kaam aur hai Kashish phir bandh kardunga...

Kashish: 20 minute aur........tab tak to main aise hi khadi khadi so jaungi......

Sujal: Kashish agar tum thak gayi ho to tum so jao na...main bas yeh kaam khatam karlun

Kashish: tumhare bigar main kaise so sakti hoon........ab chalo utho....

Sujal: to sone ke liye tumhe meri madat ki zaroorat hai kya?

Kashish: woh Sujal.......ab bahot baatein ho gayi......get up Sujal.......

Sujal: achcha thikk hai chalo...

He shuts down the laptop and closes it and holds her hand and both go to the bed...He lays down and she rests her head on his shoulder...He kissed her forehead...

Sujal: Goodnight Princess...

She kissed his hand ....

Kashish: goodnight Sujal.....

He just smiles and holds her close to him and they fall asleep.... It was around 2:00 AM when she woked up to have some water but than she rememberd that she forgot to get it.......so she gets up and went to down stairs to the kitchen to have some water..........She was putting the glass away after drinking the water and was about to wipe the droplets from her lips when she felt two hands run along her waist holding her tight...

She was about to scream when a hand was put on her lips and she was forced to turn around......her eyes were wide open.......

Sujal: Kya hua Kashish...main hi hoon koi aur nahin............

Kashish: ummm.....ummm........

she points to his hand which was on her mouth......

Sujal: Oh....Sorry...

He takes his hand of her lips and then just runs his finger along her lips wiping the water droplets...she takes a deep breath..........

Kashish: tum........tumne to meri jaan hi nikal di thi......

Sujal: mere alawa aur kaun hosakta hai Kashish...aur main tumhari jaan kaise nikaal sakta hoon jaan?...aisa hua to main kaise jiyunga...

Kashish: tum bhi na kabhi aisa mat karna.....pata hai main kitni darr gayi thi.......

Sujal: I'm sorry Kashish...ab nahin karunga....waise tum itni raat ko yahan kitchen me kya kar rahi ho............

Kashish: woh main pani pine aayi thi.....lekin tum yaha kya kar rahe ho......

Sujal: main yahan tumhare peeche aaya tha...tum jab meri baahoin ko chod ke jaati ho to muje neend kaise aa sakti hai...............

Kashish just looked into his eyes and than after some times she lowers her eyes and started to walk away but he just holds her hand........Her heart skipped a beat as he held her hand...She just stood there still and he came infront of her...She was still looking down when he smiled at her and brought her hand towards him and kissed it...She just blushed and he let go of her hand and picked her up in his arms and looked at her...She was surprised by his move but she was enjoying the every passing moment.........he was continously stariring at her.......she couldnt take it any more..........she shyly smiled at him and just hugges him so tight which make him smile too.........He just slowly carried her back upstairs into the room while she was still holding him tightly...He slowly made her lay on the bed while she was still holding onto him and he was looking at her intently...She couldn't take his gaze any longer and looked away slowly letting go of him...He moved closer to her and she closed her eyes as his lips touched her forehead...Then he just moved to his side and slowly pulled her into his arms holding her close to him and she turned around and hugged him..He smiled and then they fell asleep in each others arms....
