Behir: Love-Ship

22

Bela goes to Behir's room and sees Mahir lying on the bed and reading some book. Seeing her, Mahir gets surprised.

Mahir: Bela ... You are here? Do you need anything?

Bela: Yeah... I need bed to sleep.

Mahir chuckles and asks, " I meant, are you not going to sleep with Pari?"

Bela: Of course not. She is in Varun's room. How will I sleep there?

Mahir nods in yes and says, " Yeah. I didn't think that much. "

Bela locks the room door and lies on the bed. An awkward silence prevails in the room for sometime.

Mahir: Bela, can I ask you something?

Bela nods in yes.

Mahir: From the past few days, you are giving efforts to our relationship. I didn't happen such before. May I know why?

Bela smiles and then sits on the bed. She moves close to Mahir and says, " Frankly speaking, I used to think I Love Varun a lot and so I am unable to forget him and move on. But that day when you showed Varun's photos to Pari... I realised on seeing his pictures that yes I used to like him a lot but it wasn't love. I was happy being with him but I never felt I cannot live without him. I mean I was only living with the guilt that I should not move on from him when my heart had forgotten him long ago. These confusions got cleared and slowly I felt that you are my husband and you love me and our daughter so much. That love of yours made me get attracted towards you. "

Mahir smiles happily as Bela continues.

Bela: Mahir I am sorry for distancing myself from you all these years. But I really want a future with you. Everyone is saying that I should give a chance to Varun but if I do so, everything will be very complicated.

Mahir: Why do you think that things will be complicated?

Bela: Why won't it be? We will be staying under same roof and then suddenly I have to treat you like you are no one to me. I can't do that after all these years of us being together.

Mahir: What? Us? Together? Seriously Bela? What are you talking about? When did we have Us in our so called marriage all these years?

Bela: I know... Mahir ji I am trying to say that...

Mahir: Bela even now, all you are feeling is guilt for letting me go and going back to Varun just because we are married and we have a daughter.

Bela: Mahir, no. What I feel for you is mot guilt. Its definitely much more than what I used to think.

Mahir: And what did you think before?

Bela: I used to think that you are a good friend of mine... But now things have changed between us. Can't you see that?

Mahir: No. I can't see that. Tell me what things have changed?

Bela (stammering) : Mahirji... I... We... Actually...

Mahir: Come on Bela. Say what has changed between us?

Bela closes her eyes, takes a deep breath and smashes her lips on Mahir's shocking him to the core. She slowly sucks his lips to which he starts reciprocating. Mahir places his hand on Bela's back and pulls her close to him without breaking the kiss. As they enjoy each other's lips, they fall on the bed with Bela on top of Mahir. They break the kiss, blushing and breathing heavily.

Bela (controlling her blush): If this doesn't tell you what has changed between us, nothing can.

Mahir pecks on Bela's forehead making her feel butterflies allover her body.

Mahir: For me, you and our daughter are my complete world. I can kill and die for you both. I can never imagine our life without you two.

Bela: You needn't imagine even a day without us. Mahirji, you me and our daughter are always a family.

Mahir slowly pecks on her cheeks and then slowly places his lips on her shoulder over her night dress making shiver run through her body. She clutches the bedsheet very tightly as he slowly moves his lips to her neck and sucks her bare skin leaving a beautiful mark. Holding her with both his hands, he rolls over making him come on top of her. Mahir looks into Bela's eyes for permission making Bela blush more. She raises her face and pecks his cheek making him smile. As Mahir continues kissing and sucking her neck, Bela's hand slowly reaches the switch board near bed and switches off the room lights.
