"CLOSER TO PARTING"

Sumedh:
Hero main hu! Tumhe main bachaunga..

Sumedh says pointing index finger at her. She frowns. The men stand there, staring at them. Sumedh is still laying on the floor.

Mallika:
Aree hatto! Tumhare protection ki jarurat nahi hai mujhe!
Sumedh:
Aachaaa...Batao kya karogi?
Mallika:
Dekho...Aur Seekho!

She takes out her gun from her boots and shoots one of the men straight in middle of their brain. Much to Sumedh surprise.

Sumedh:
Wtf? U have a gun?
Mallika:
Yeah...Of course.
Sumedh:
Toh mujhe pitne kyun diya?
Mallika:
Anil sir ne jo mujhe taana maara na...uska badala tha yeh.
Sumedh:
Aree!

Mallika extends her hand to him.

Mallika:
We survived this...That is what matters. Come on get up.
Sumedh:
Yeah. I guess...You are right.

He holds her hand and she helps him stand.

Sumedh:
Aaa...Bc dukh raha hai.
Mallika:
Painkiller hai mere pass.
Sumedh:
Do jaldi. Bass next time jaldi shoot karna...!
Mallika:
Ummm....Can't promise.

Mallika gives him the pain killer.

Mallika:
I think we should move. They can easily come here again.
Sumedh:
Yeah. Lets goo!.

They pack their bags and sit in the car.

Sumedh:
We'll stay near the airport. It will easy for you to get in fast.
Mallika:
But I will be getting in the airport at 3.30 pm tomorrow.....
Sumedh:
No risk Mallika.

The airport is quite out of town. Its a 1 hour drive.

Sumedh:
What will you do when you go back home?
Mallika:
Go back to Mom. Hug her. Tell her I am leaving this job. Then leave the job.
Sumedh:
Hmm.. hmmm..
Mallika:
Where will you go now? Which country?
Sumedh:
I don't know. My beloved sister got a job transfer to Paris. So maybe, I will go to her. Live there till I get any new orders.
Mallika:
Hmm cool.

Both of them hide their disappointments. Sumedh wanted Mallika to stay with him..stay in this job.
Mallika wanted to leave the job because she was tired now. She has only heard of country abandoning its servants...but today when it actually happened, She had no will continue.
Sumedh on the other hand was too in dilemma to continue to serve or not. He was secretly terrified of the thought that he may never return to India if he continues to serve.

On the personal front.
They didn't wanna part from each other.
Sumedh wanted to stop Mallika, hold her hands, pull her close and just pour his heart to her.
Mallika wanted to be stopped, pulled closer and wanted to listen to his heart beating.
But he didn't have the courage for any rejection from Mallika.
Mallika didn't have the courage to trust him again.

With all the contrasting thoughts, They sat in their new room. Silent. Not talking. Not looking at each other for more than 5 secs.

Sumedh lay on the bed beside Mallika.
Mallika lay beside him.
Facing each other.
Drops of tears daring not to escape their eyes.
Breathing calmly.
Sumedh turned his back on her.
Let the tears escape his eyes.
Mallika bit her lip to control her tears.
She shifted towards him.
Caressed his hair.
His body felt a jerk because of her unexpected action.

Mallika:
Sumedh?
Sumedh:
Hmm...
Mallika:
Can you hold me....For sometime?
Sumedh:
Hmm yeah.

He turned to her. She rested her head on his arm. Their eye contact lasted for 20 secs this times.

Sumedh:
How much time is sometime?
Mallika:
This night.
Sumedh:
Okay. Good Night Mallika.
Mallika:
Good Night Sumedh.

And they closed their eyes and slept.
