FALLING IN LOVE

part-77(kk found teja)

Next morning, both woke up early—Teja for a new life, and Kk for finding his wife.

Teja prayed and left for her exam hall.

Kk too prayed—first for Teja's exam and then to get her back.

He left for her exam center.

Kk reached first as it was nearby. Teja arrived around thirty minutes later.

Kk, sitting inside his car, saw Teja walking towards the gate.

Kk to himself: My princess... she has become so weak. It feels like she isn't eating properly. She looks so pale. All the glow on her face is gone. She isn't even smiling anymore...

Teja went inside, completely unaware that Kk was watching her.

Soon her exam started.

Since the NEET exam would last several hours, Kk decided to wait there itself.

He didn't eat anything because he knew Teja hadn't eaten either.

Finally, the bell rang.

Teja came out of the exam hall.

Before she could react, Kk walked straight towards her, grabbed her hand, and started pulling her with him.

Teja was shocked.

Seeing Kk suddenly after eleven days made her heart race.

She tried to free herself.

Teja: Karan! Leave me!

But Kk didn't listen.

He forcefully made her sit inside the car, rushed to the driver's seat, locked the doors, and started the engine.

Teja: Karan, what the hell are you doing? Open the door!

She kept trying to open it, but the child lock was on.

Kk: Try harder, wifey.

Kk started driving.

Soon they reached home.

The moment the car stopped, Kk came out, opened her door, held her hand again, and started walking towards the house.

Teja kept struggling.

Teja: Leave my hand, Karan!

But Kk didn't listen.

He brought her inside.

As soon as Teja entered, her eyes fell on Km, Kd, Tm, and Td.

Tears instantly filled her eyes.

Teja: Mom... Dad... Papa... Maa...

Tm stepped forward.

Before Teja could say anything, Tm slapped her.

The slap was so hard that Teja lost her balance and fell.

Kk instantly moved forward to help her.

But before he could touch her—

Teja: Don't, Mr. Karan Kundra. I can stand on my own. I don't need any help.

Kk froze.

Teja slowly stood up.

The moment she stood, another slap landed on her cheek.

Tears started falling from Teja's eyes.

She didn't say a word.

She just stood there silently, accepting everything.

Tm: Eleven days, Teja.

Eleven days!

Do you even know what we all went through?

Do you know how many places we searched for you?

Do you know how many nights we cried thinking whether you were safe or not?

You lost your brother once, and because of that pain, you made all of us live the same fear every single day!

We thought something had happened to you.

We thought we had lost you too.

Do you know what that feels like?

Teja lowered her head.

Not because she was angry.

Not because she was stubborn.

But because she knew every word was true.

And for the first time in eleven days...

She realized how many hearts she had broken by leaving.
