The Replacement

CH-66

SHIPRA POV

I saw him open the door putting his thumb and went inside but before the door got closed I held the door and went inside.

Closing the door I rooted at the same place looking at his back figure. He threw his jacket on the bed and loosened his tie and opened his cufflinks and folded his sleeves.

He still did not realize my presence nor I want to. I just want to look at him.

He went near the window where a small bar is there and made a drink and took a look at the window and lit his cigarette.

I could see his side face. He closed his eyes taking a deep puff in and took out smoke after a few seconds.

I was still standing at the same place and he was completely unaware of my presence.

He made one more drink and gulped it in one go and another and another. I did not stop him today.

Finally, after five pegs he turned around and stopped looking at me standing at the door.

I started walking towards him and stood still. I reached him and touched his cheeks from both my hands. I brushed his hair from my fingers and touched his eyebrows with my thumb.

I tried hard but I could not control touching him. I just want to feel him all over him.

My hand went to his neck and then his shoulder. My eye followed my hand moment and his eyes just stuck on me. I can feel his gaze on me.

Finally, my hand stopped at his chest and I again looked up to his eyes. We both looked at each other with no words to be exchanged in between.

My hand went behind his neck and I hugged him.

He is my life and I never want to leave him. He is my home. I just want to be with him, just him.

Tears pooled in my eyes. Just to be in his arms after so many days made me overwhelmed.

I Kissed his forehead, his eyes, his cheeks, his lips again and again. Tears pooling like rain.

"Please don't do this Rana Sa" I whisper my request.

"Please tell me what is bothering you. Why are you behaving like this? Please tell me. I know something is wrong, please tell me." I pleaded with him, holding the collar of his shirt.

"What will you do when you see someone break your trust?" He spoke, cleaning my tears with his thumb.

Is he talking about me?
But when did I break his trust?

I just looked at him with questioning eyes but he kept on looking at me to answer "It depends" I spoke while looking at him. I mean I don't know what to do when I am in such a situation.

"Will you punish the person?" He asked again. Holding me from my waist by one hand.

"Maybe it depends on what he or she did." I again gave the same answer.

"Why are you in my chamber?" He asked me while pushing me a little from him.

Now it's his chamber, not ours?

"I wanted to be with you". I know he is angry but right now I just need to calm him down and I know later he will tell me what's wrong. So I did not leave him and stayed still.

"I know you are angry with me, tell me to get your forgiveness?" I request him.

"What can you do?" He spoke looking straight into my eyes.
