Chapter 28 :
Longing EchoesSejal's return from her staycation sent ripples through the Chavan mansion, and amid the warm greetings, she sensed a noticeable absence - Rishabh, a brooding silhouette awaiting her in his room.
Entering the bedroom, Sejal's gaze fell upon Rishabh, shirtless and casually clad in sweatpants, a sight that stirred an unexpected warmth within her. Closing the door, she briefly indulged in the allure of his sculpted back and veined arms.
Pouring herself a glass of water, Sejal felt a magnetic pull as Rishabh, like an unspoken desire, encircled her from behind. His veiny hands secured her tiny waist, creating an embrace that spoke volumes.
Inhaling deeply, Rishabh whispered sweet nothings into her neck."I missed you baby. You smell divine." His breath, like a gentle caress, stirred a cascade of butterflies within Sejal. Each word he uttered expressed a longing that echoed through the room. "Te ves tan hermosa." (You look so beautiful)
Turning her to face him, Rishabh tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, his hands lingering on her waist. Though there was a measured distance between their chests, his gaze held a depth of emotion, a silent plea for understanding.
"Are you mad at me, Mrs Chavan? Do you not want to be around me?" he asked, his eyes searching for answers in the depths of hers.
Sejal, caught in the emotional whirlwind, hesitated. "Mr Chavan, it's not that I don't want to be with you. I just...need time."
