FALLING IN LOVE

part-71(teja left?)

Kk to himself: Shit yaar... I made the biggest mistake. Where is she? I hurt her. She's angry with me, that's why she slept on the sofa. Yaar... I have to explain everything to her. But it's my fault, I know.

As he turned to get up, he saw a glass of juice and tablets kept beside the bed.

A small smile appeared on his face.

He took the tablets, drank the juice, and then went to get fresh.

When he came downstairs, no one was there.

He immediately started searching for Teja.

The thought that she had left him made him panic.

Soon he reached the study room and saw her sitting there.

Without wasting a second, he ran towards her and pulled her into a hug.

Teja: What happened?

Kk: I thought you left me.

Teja: Hmm... okay.

Kk: Teja, can we talk?

Teja: First let's have breakfast.

Kk: Hmm... okay.

They both went downstairs and sat at the dining table. Teja had already prepared and arranged everything.

They started having breakfast.

After a few minutes, Kk wanted some curd, so he got up to bring it.

While returning, his eyes fell on a plate of food kept untouched on the kitchen counter.

Immediately he understood.

Kk to himself: She didn't eat dinner yesterday... yaar, why doesn't this girl take care of herself?

He came back but didn't say anything.

Both of them finished breakfast in silence.

Kk: Come. I want to talk.

Teja: Hmm.

Both of them went towards the balcony of their room.

For a few moments, neither of them spoke.

Finally, Kk broke the silence.

Kk: Teja, I'm sorry for yesterday. I was coming home, but on the way I met one of my classmates. He dragged me along and... I ended up drinking. I'm sorry.

Teja: It's okay, Karan.

Kk: Teja, look at me. What's the matter? Please tell me.

Teja finally looked at him.

There were tears in her eyes.

Kk: Teja...

Teja: Do you have any idea, Karan, how scared I was?

Kk stayed silent.

Teja: You went with your friend, that's fine. But you could have informed me. You didn't even pick up my calls. And on top of that, you drank.

It's okay if you drank... but after drinking, you drove back home alone.

What if something had happened?

What if...

Her voice broke.

Teja: I can't lose you, Karan. Now it's only you that I have.

Before she could say anything else, Kk pulled her into a tight hug.

Kk: Shhh... I'm right here, baby. Nothing happened. I'm sorry. I promise I will never do anything like that again.

He gently kissed her forehead.

Kk: I'm really sorry.

Teja just held him tighter.

After a few moments, Kk spoke again.

Kk: But can you tell me one thing?

Teja: Hmm?

Kk: Why didn't you have dinner yesterday?

Teja immediately looked away.

Teja: How do you know? I mean...

Kk: Teja...

Teja: Hmm?

Kk: Say it.

Teja: That... I was angry with you.

Kk: Are you serious?

Teja: Sunny, please...

Kk: Fine. But tell me one more thing.

Teja: What?

Kk: What's going on in that little head of yours?

Teja went silent.

She knew exactly what he was asking.

And Kk knew she was hiding something.

Teja: ...
