Only for you

Chapter 40 - That one Hug

That was a beautiful morning for him. A coffee mug and the precious person lying on him near a window. Indeed a beautiful morning. She slightly stirred in her sleep gaining the attention of her Vijz. He lightly caressed her hair, so that she can go back to her sleep. She was clinging to him since she woke in the car last night. Maybe she was afraid of the happeings around her.

'I shouldn't have gone to the conference', Vijay thought and sipped his coffee not before placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. He loved the feel when she snuggle into him whenever he kissed her. His hands tightened around her. His gaze turned towards the woman sleeping in his bed. He could see a little baby bump. His hands itched to caress her baby bump to make sure his boy was safe inside.

Yes, he decided to make Kavitha as his wife. He decided to adopt Mazhi and the baby legally. He wont be repeating the same mistake once again. He stayed in the family house only for the sake of his mother and Viji. Atleast he shouldn't have brought Kavitha and Mazhi into his messedup life. And now he had dragged her into his life, he had to take up the responsibility of protecting her. No matter what happens, the nuptial chain around her neck in his name will protect her from the cruel words from his family. He was determined to make them take back their words about Mazhi and Kavitha.

With these thoughts cloudung his mind, he remembered the hug he shared with Kavitha in the police station. That hug assured him that his Kavitha was safe. The assurance that calmed his raging heart. He felt that Kavitha relaxed under his hug. Not only Kavitha, he was also relaxed. His thoughts went back to the police station.

On that Day...

Vijay could feel the tears of Kavitha soaking his shirt...He was helpless...

"Please Kavitha..Don't cry", Vijay mumbled. He felt her hand tightening around him.

"You are safe now", he whispered.

He hugged her tightly.. But they were disturbed.

"Ahem ahem"

Vijay heard which made him to look behind Kavitha. On seeing his friend with his signature smirk, he realised his position and hurriedly left Kavitha's side. Kavitha was embarassed beyond imagination. She doesn't know what happened to make her hug Vijay. May be she was tired of the recent events, may be she was exhausted...May be she gave up...May be she found a hope...May be she saw the longing in his eyes...Maybe she saw a new emotion, love in his eyes.. She don't know what made her to put her hands around his torso and lean over his chest.. But now she was embarrassed to even look at Vijay and Sashi... Vijay's condition was not different from Kavitha. He was embarassed beyond imagination. He closed his eyes feeling Sashi's smirk.

At that moment he knew, he will be facing a lot of teasing from his dear friend. It's not like Vijay was not having anything against Sashi to stop him tease, but at that moment he was embarassed. He gathered his courage to face his friend after few minutes. When he turned aside, he saw Sashi carrying a bag in one hand and sleeping Mazhi in another hand.

"I am taking my sister and her daughter home", Sashi asked with laughter.

"Are you not coming?", he continued with a smirk.

Vijay looked around the room for Kavitha and saw her standing near the door before Sashi with a confused look. Vijay breath of relief. He panicked once again not finding Kavitha near him.

"But Manickam had gone out..There will be..", Vijay started.

"I had been informed that Suresh's car rushing towards here. We have to take Kavitha as soon as possible if you don't want to be questioned by Suresh", Sashi replied.

Vijay nodded and went with them.

They both made sure Kavitha was comfortable. Sashi kept the lugguages in the hood of the car.. Vijay opened the car door for Kavitha as like a gentleman. Sashi looked at his friend and smiled. No one from their department will ssy this is their ever cold DCP Vijay. He was running around the city to find a woman and a baby like a manic. Sashi had seen the worse in Vijay's life and today he got a glimpse of the past of Vijay. The Vijay, all were witnessing now was someone who was broken and made into a hard pot. After settling comfortably in the car, Sashi drove the car towards the police quaters.

Kavitha was not able to lookup at Vijay nor at Sashi after that calming hug. She looked at Vijay who was silently caressing her daughter's head. She was snuggled in his arms. Never once her husband's family had shown such affection to his daughter. His brother in laws not even looked at his daughter. But here some stranger accepted her as his own daughter.

'Is Vijay stranger to you?', her mind chriped in.

'No, after witnessing that hug are you doubting that he is some stranger to us?', her heart replied.

'Then who is he to us?', her mind questioned again.

'Ummm, he is our saviour', her heart declared.

'Do you think we are very much depended on him?', her mind argued.

'You know, whenever we are in trouble he came leaving behind all works and came to save us', her mind reasoned.

'No he will not think like that', her heart screamed.

Vijay looked through the car mirror only to find Kavitha sitting silently with a frown.

"Whats wrong Kavitha", Vijay asked startling her.

Thats how she was brought out of her internal conflict. She looked around and noticed that the car was stopped and 3 pairs of eyes including her daughter looking at her with a frown.

"What happened", Kavitha asked with a worried face.

"We have been calling you for the past 5 minutes but you stayed silent", Sashi said.

"Yes, whats wrong Kavitha", Vijay asked with a worry laced voice.

"No, umm its nothing", Kavitha replied and looked around. The place was not familiar but the place had a calming environment.

Their car was stopped infront of a large gate she noticed. The gate was opened by a security, who saluted. Kavitha was looking around the environment, she could see a park in the left side of the road inside which some of the children were playing happily, some mothers sitting in the bench chatting with each other and smiling. In her right side she saw a playground where some people are playing volley ball.

Their car crossed a series of well built houses and stopped at a corner. Sashi turned off the engine and opened the car door.

Vijay could see the frown lines forming in Kavitha's forehead. He chuckled making her snap out of the thousands of questions running in her mind.

"Kavitha, this is my police quarters. From now we will stay here", Vijay said and opened the door.

'We gonna stay here', her heart murmered.

Vijay opened the car door for her. Kavitha looked up at Vijay and don't know what she had seen, she silently followed Vijay and Sashi. Vijay was holding Mazhi and Sashi was carrying her luggage. They stopped near a door, in which Vijay's name was imprinted. Vijay unlocked the door and asked Kavitha to enter first. She hesitated but the smile on Vijay and Sashi made her to place her first step inside the new house.

God looked at her and smiled knowing that she had placed the first step in her new life too.
