Kabir-Kajal:- The Saga Of Love

5~ He did not come whole night

●๛︻̷●๛︻̷●๛︻̷●๛︻̷●

He did not come whole night.

Kajal was worried, tensed for his safety. It was past 11 when she received message from him, saying he will come soon and got some urgent work. She waited for him, 1 hour, 2 hours and slowly sleep consumed her.

She called him at 1 and was relieved as he picked up the call. She does not know what urgent work he had but she believe he will tell her surely.

Heartbroken? Yes.

She felt sad because it was their special night which passed away so plainly. She thought of many good moments, conversation with him.

No worries.

If they are together, they will get more beautiful nights.

She came out of the bathroom and euphoric feeling rushing down to her spine as soon as she spotted Kabir on couch. He seem tired. His head is dropped back on couch head rest and eyes are closed.

He is in his yellow kurta and white pajama, messed up hair, sleeves rolled up and buttons open of kurta.

Strange.

But he still managed to look handsome.

Her anklets sound rang into his ear and he gulped a little but did not open his eyes. Kajal walked toward him, sat down beside him. He felt her hand on his shoulder and he open his eyes.

" You okay?"

Kabir look at her and felt his heart skipping a beat seeing her in a red saree, wet hair, bare face without makeup and looking ethereal beautiful.

He exhaled softly.

" Yes."

And sit straight. She smiled.

" I guess you need sleep. You look tired."

Kabir shake his head.

" No, I am okay."

He grabbed her hands and caresses her knuckles with the pad of his thumb.

" Aap bohot achi lag rahi hain."

( You are looking so beautiful.)

Her eyes sparkled and smile grew wider. She closed her eyes when he plant a kiss on her forehead.

" I am sorry, I couldn't come last night. I tried but fire was spread in one of the room of orphanage. 2 kids got hurt and while taking care of situation there, I did not realize when morning came."

She shake her head reassuringly at him.

" Don't be sorry, How are kids and orphanage?"

Kabir licked his lower lip lightly.

" Fortunately, everything is okay now."

She nodded.

" You should take bath now. You will feel fresh."

He hummed, stood up and went to bathroom. Kajal chose to get ready and as she was done, she left the room.

Kabir came out with a towel wrapped around torso and drying hair with another towel. He grabbed his mobile from nightstand and dialed a number. After 2 rings, someone picked up the call.

'' Yes. Sir?"

It was his PA, Anjali Mehra.

" I am sending you a CCTV footage. There is a man whose picture is not very cleared. I need you to you work on that and send me the cleared picture as soon as possible."
