Irresistible

43. Ladna Jagadna

Haseena had asked Karishma to drop her at Ammi's home. She wanted her to know about the engagement first. They were outside Ammi's home and Haseena got down from the bike handing over Karishma her helmet.

"Aap andar nahi chalengi? Ammi se mil toh lijiye na. Saat mein batayenge Karishma." Haseena asked for one more time.

"Nahi nahi Haseena ji aap maa beti shaati se itminaan se baat kar lijiye. Aap call kijiye aur aapko pickup karney ayengey tab ammi se mil bhi lengey." Karishma said. She knew that Haseena and her Ammi needed to speak about their engagement in private. Without her being there to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Theek hai hum call karengey. Aapko bhi toh Pushpa ji se baat karna hoga na?"

"Haan waheen ja rahe hai ab."

"Theek hai." Haseena said standing there. She looked around the block and after ensuring that no one was looking, she put a hand behind Karishma's neck pulling her into a quick kiss, sucking on Karishma's lower lip a little too harshly. Karishma held the brake on her bike to keep it from falling and put one hand around Haseena's waist pulling her closer, deepening the kiss. She nibbled on Haseena's upper lip beckoning her to grant her access into her mouth but Haseena parted with the kiss. She didn't want to be caught by Ammi. It would be a very embarrassing conversation she decided.

"Ghar chalein Mrs. Singh Ammi ko kal bata dijiye." Karishma asked panting slightly, her cheeks were a distinct shade of red after Haseena withdrew. She rubbed below Karishma's lips where her lipstick had smudged with Karishma's creating a new shade.

Karishma addressing her as Mrs. Singh brought a smile to her face.

"Nahi. Abhi bata dengey. Aur blush toh aisi kar rahi hai jaise kabhie humko kiss kiya hi nahi aapne. Hum toh-" Haseena started counting with the help of her fingers "-pandrah baar WOH bhi kar chuke hai." Haseena taunted with a smirk and walked away. Karishma gaped at how Haseena had kept count of not just the number of times they'd done the deed but of the number of times she'd made Karishma come. Her cheeks heated instantly.

"Ka woh? Woh ka hota hai? Aap na bahoth besharam hoti ja rahi hai dekh lengey. Hum bhi koi kam nahi hai hum bata rahe hai aapko." Karishma said recovering from her dazed state.

Haseena laughed at her Bhaukal Singh who had now taken the roop of Bheegi Billi just mumbling something in her dazed state and started walking towards Ammi's home.

"Jaldi call kijiye raat mein WOH karengey!" Karishma called back to Haseena's retreating form.

"Chi Karishma!" Haseena shouted back. Karishma laughed and sped away on her bike.

..

Haseena had an off on the next day and Karishma was yet to rejoin duty. Ammi had invited the Singh's over for lunch. She thought it would be appropriate to discuss marriage preparations over lunch and since it was Diwali they could also celebrate it together.

Haseena had actually stayed back at Ammi's home last night and Karishma had stayed with Pushpa ji. It was almost noon and Haseena was busy helping Ammi arrange the table before Karishma arrived.

"Haseena! Guest waala china nikhal liya na tumney?"

"Ji nahi ammi abhi nikhal dete hai. Itne upar kyun rakhti hai aap aur roz bhi toh use kar sakti hai na aap yeh-" Haseena complained and moved to the kitchen. She was wearing a navy blue sharara which was too grand but her ammi had insisted and she didn't mind dressing up once in a while, especially when she was going to meet her fiancee.

She smiled just thinking about the word Fiancee as she got on the stool to retrieve the dishes. The bell rang and Haseena felt her heartbeat rising in anticipation of seeing Karishma again. As her fiancee. To discuss marriage. Their marriage. Damn it still felt unreal to her.
