Fated Under The Dark Sky

Chapter 15

"Stop overreacting kid" Kabeer's words snapped her off her thoughts.

She looked over Kunal's shoulder, at Kabeer and her blood boiled in her eyes. Kunal turned to face him as well and the arrogance of Kabeer's face disappeared. He was now awe-struck, just the way when a gay finds his soul mate. Kabeer was not a gay as far as she knew. He'd had tons of girlfriends in his lifetime that Sammy knew of.

"Bhai... This is not funny." She scowled. Pushing past Kunal she lunged at Kabeer, when two large hands wrapped her from behind and pulled her away.

"It was just a prank... relax" Hearing Kunal's words, she calmed down; surprisingly, he didn't seem to be bothered with the whole drama. When he loosened his grip, Sammy moved away now more worried about the passers-by, who she thought had witnessed the scene.

"I'll go get changed." She death-stared at Kabeer as she passed by him and disappeared in the corridor.

"Will someone tell me, what's happening here?" Sighing, Kunal asked him; he being the only person Kunal trusted, other than himself.

"How do you know my sister?" Kabeer goggled in disbelief.

"Why is my life surrounded by your sisters? As though, your half-sister obsessed to marry me wasn't enough; now your sworn sister walks in.... as a spy."

Kabeer laughed in disbelief. "A spy? She can be anything but." Kabeer sighed. "When it comes to my step-father and Richa, I can't assure you anything, but Sammy, I can blindly trust her. In fact, at times I wish Sammy was born to my mother."

"How can you be so sure about her?" How do you know so much about her? -When Sammy had hardly opened up to him.

"Because I've known her since she landed here, in London. I've met her whole big family, in India. Her parents trust me with her. Plus, I know what she's capable of. A Spy?" He snorted. "You must be kidding me."

Am I wrong, this time? If you trust her, can I trust her too? "Alright, I'll try to trust her because I trust you."

"You want to trust her because you like her, don't you?" Kabeer caught him off track. Judging Kunal's expressions, he knew he was right. "I hope it works out well between you two." Patting on his shoulders Kabeer laughed at Kunal's bewildered face.

"Do you know each other from before?" Kabeer and Kunal jumped their feet. Sammy stared at the duo, who seemed to be chatting like old friends.

Ignoring Sammy, Kunal told Kabeer. "It was nice to meet you man. And the show was outstanding." Then, he bear-hugged him, whispering, "She doesn't know who I am". Kabeer stared bewildered, then smiled and whispered back, "And she doesn't know Richa and her father"

"Hey. Thanks man!!" Kabeer spoke unpretentiously moving away, then hugged Sammy and whispered "Sorry for earlier. And he definitely loves you." She took a step back, her borrows narrowed "Bhai... We definitely need to talk sometime soon." She growled, glaring.

"You transform into a completely different person on stage. And your voice is so amazing and appealing to ears." Kunal complimented her as they reached her house. "Why are you even wasting your time in the firm?"

"Thanks" She finally dared to speak. "Honestly, singing is just my hobby, but creating wonders is my dream."

"I like it when you put it that way." He smiled ear to ear. Sammy ordered a pizza, then crashed on the sofa chair, when Kunal cleared his throat to speak, "I know it is not a good time to talk about it, but you really act like a two-year-old at times. And trust me, it is quite a sight to watch you." He sniggered. Sammy punched hard on his arm.
