The next day morning:-
Anokhi-Shaurya jana zaroori hai? I mean kal I reacted and today I don't want you to go. I am going to miss you.
Shaurya-Mein bhi but you know Siac has bagged a project with the World Bank. Tomorrow the executives will be here to discuss things. So I have to go back.
Anokhi-You never fail to inspire me. Most people would be happy with what they have. I mean you are the board member. You will always be. But still you want to make this place grow. You are ambitious and yet all about home and family. I just wished you were a little bit of you. I mean I wish you got to spend time with yourself in a good way. I want you to enjoy your life to the fullest. I want you to be happy. I want ki tumhara bhi kuch ho.
Shaurya-Tum ho naa. Meri.
Anokhi-I know. But apne liye bhi cheeze karna seekho. I wish you would do stuff that gave you joy and not think about anything else.
Shaurya-Thats why I came. It gives me joy to see you. To hug you. To have you close.
Anokhi-I know but something that doesn't involve us. I think the long distance will help you figure that out. It comes from only a good place.
Shaurya-Yup. You know ambition and family ke beech khud ke sath shayd time hi nhi mila.
Anokhi-Toh if you have to give me time to me then you have to know what me time means. First go and find your me time. And then you will learn to protect your me time. You will also learn what I mean by my time. I think we will understand each other better.
Shaurya-Hmmm.
Anokhi-But don't do this for understanding me. You do it for you.
Shaurya-#Selflove haan?
They both smile.
Shaurya-I don't want to get down from the bed. I don't want to walk away.
Anokhi-But we have to.
Shaurya-5 min?
Anokhi-Ok.
As Shaurya was about to wake up.
Anokhi-5 min.
Shaurya gives out a chuckle.
Anokhi-Tumhare panch minute he baad mere panch minute.
Shaurya finds her adorable and kisses her on her forehead.
Shaurya-Pait dard hai abhi?
Anokhi-Halka sa. But when you keep your hand on my back I feel so much better.
Shaurya-Hhmmm. Maybe a kiss will be even better?
He moves to her stomach and places a kiss on it.
Shaurya-Ok?
Anokhi-Hmmm. Felt good. Thanks.
Shaurya-Kiss ke liye thanks? Very bad.
Anokhi-Ok no thanks.
Both laugh. 5 minutes come to an end and they want to stay still.
Shaurya-I will walk you to the washroom atleast and get your clothes out. Anokhi didn't have the heart to shut the door.
Shaurya-Doesnt have to be shut you know.
Anokhi just walks in leaving the door open. Shaurya gets out her clothes and hands it to her. She freshens up after which he freshens up for the day.
Anokhi-Airport tak chodne aana chahti hoon.
Shaurya-Tumhara class hai jaan.
Anokhi-Hmmm.
Shaurya-I will drop you and stay with you right till your class starts.
Anokhi-Ok.
They reach till Anokhi's college. They bid each other a teary eyed bye.
Shaurya waves at her till she disappears behind the walls.
After the class Anokhi texts him to check whether he reached the airport. He replied he received a message saying the flight has been delayed by 4hrs. He will be leaving for the airport nevertheless.
On whatsapp:-
Anokhi-Kyu?
Shaurya-Tumhare bina kya karunga yaar?
Anokhi-Arre. Checkout time late hai. You can stay at the hotel.
Shaurya-Without you?
Anokhi-Yes.
Shaurya-Sure?
Anokhi-Yes.
He decides to wait at the airport but then just as he was locking up he feels no harm in staying. He doesn't know how to kill time. He pulls out a paperback meant for the flight. He gets completely into the book and enjoyed it.
Shaurya(in his mind)-Never got to read something cover to cover. Humesha kaam aa jata tha. So finally! It's done. Kitna maza aaya. Shayd Anokhi was right. Family aur ambition ke beech life ke simple pleasures miss kar rha tha. Do I really have to go? Can't I stay for a day more. I can relax. But? Anokhi! I hope woh bura Naa maane.
After an hour on whatsapp:-
Shaurya-Woh mein jaa nhi paya.
Anokhi-This is too much. We have to do your jobs. You can't do this. 😡
Shaurya-Suno toh! Apne liye. TO SPEND TIME WITH MYSELF!!!!
I will just hang out and relax in the hotel.
Anokhi-Shaurya I am so proud! Finally some self love.💕
Shaurya-Tumhe bura nhi laga?
Anokhi-No have fun!!!!😁😁😁😘😘😘
Shaurya-Toh ab kaise time spend kia jaye? (In his mind.) Let me go in the reception to talk about the room first.
He goes to reception to convey he will be staying for another day.
Receptionist-We have spa services do you want? Couples ke liye we have offers.
Shaurya-No. I mean. Do you have anything for like a guy.
(Shaurya was awkward to ask something for himself. He has been the one to do only stuff for others. Nothing for himself.)
Receptionist gave a smile.
Receptionist-Yes sir. Swedish deep tissue hot stone hai sir. CBD massage?
Shaurya-What is that?
She explains and selects a massage.
Masseur-Sir can you please take off your shirt?
Shaurya-Why?
Masseur-Sir massage sir.
Shaurya(In mind)-Anokhi gussa karegi kya.
Shaurya-Wait a second.
He takes out his phone and texts her.
Shaurya-I am getting a full body massage done. Tumhe problem hai? I mean he asked me to remove his shirt.
Anokhi-Tum pagal ho.
Shaurya-Ok I won't get it done.
Anokhi-I mean why would I mind if you go shirtless. I would not mind if you go shirtless on stage also. Bas just ek pic bhejna. With all the oil you are going to look hotter. 😋😋😋🤭
Shaurya-Ok!
He gets the massage done.
Shaurya(In his mind)-Was so relaxing!!!!! Pehle kyu nhi try kia yeh. In fact next time couples wala karunga.
How was the update? Please. Comment.
