Once Again First Love

Being far apart

Arjun is busy with new upcoming projects, so he just ignored Kayal as always and made sure the investigator to keep eye on her and update if he notices anything in her actions. Kayal days went on with her daily household, office work and Ria, her biggest happiness now. She prayed she can take any insults or hurtful words Arjun if she can be a mother to her child, and not to take away her happiness as he always does. In a month of marriage, Kayal didn't spoke a word with Arjun, other than a day where he accused her for trying to seducing him when she came out with bathrobe from bathroom.

It's a day, she got her periods and Arjun is not home and he won't be back from office soon too. Ria is playing in the hall, so she informed Latha and went to take a bath. In a hurry, she forgot to take her changing clothes, so she wrapped a towel and came out. When she slides the door, Arjun too on the other side tried to slide it, both stumble upon each other. Arjun immediately holds her by waist and got surprised to see her in the robe. He immediately pushed her and accused her for trying to seduce him. She immediately took another towel from the table and wrapped around her exposed neck and shoulder. Her heart is pumping loud cause of nervousness, Arjun too can hear it. She apologized and try to move from there. But Arjun mean words made her hurt, but she again said sorry and moved from there without giving any excuse as she knows it will only make him anger more. The nervousness cause of little intimacy turned immediately into anxious when Arjun called her whore.

She changed her clothes, and dried her hair and went down. She saw Arjun having his dinner along with other family members, so she told Sunitha ma she is not hungry and she will take Ria to bed. She put Ria in bed after telling her bed time stories and she too lied down in floor and closed her eyes. She hears sound of Arjun entering the room and getting into bed.

Arjun went to France for 2 weeks for a business trip. Kayal knows about his trip from Latha. Kayal always prayed to God about everyone's health, happiness and safety including Arjun. Kayals hear about Arjun wellbeing from Latha and she know he call his mother 2 days once. He will ask about everyone except Kayal. She also sometime present next to Latha when Arjun called, but she wont say a word. She felt a sadness in her heart, which she couldn't explain the feelings about.

It's Friday, a day before Arjun return to India. Its midnight, Kayal suddenly felt thirsty and she forgot to keep water in the room, so she went down for water. When entering a hall, she saw a shadow and got little scared. She thought may be cause of sleepiness she would have felt so as the house is tight secured. There is a dim light alone in the hall, so she thought she might be mistaken. But she heard a sound from kitchen, so she immediately grabbed a remote which is near to her and went inside kitchen without making noise. Its dark, she saw a silhouette near the fridge and thought of attacking before alerting everyone. But the shadow noticed her presence and turned around, at the same time she raised a hand to hit. But the person suddenly dropped the bottle and hold her hand and turned her around and hold her against the fridge door and shut her mouth when she tried to shout.

She got so scarred about what would happen, so tried to free herself from the person's hold. But the voice stopped her from moving saying "It's me"???

Even though she didn't talk much with Arjun, she recognized his voice in the darkness and a fear turned into nervousness. After seeing her still condition, he removed his hand and went to ON the light. He commented on her foolishness to think a thief would dare to enter in his house with a tight security and also on her stupid boldness to think to fight with the thief alone. She didn't say anything other than a Sorry. Then she saw his luggages, laptop bag and his court in the hall and thought she is really a fool to not to notice this earlier.

Arjun without saying anything went to his room. He saw Ria sleeping peacefully in the bed, and smiled himself. Kayal saw the time and its 1 AM. She suddenly thought whether he ate anything or he is hungry. She doesn't know what to do, so boiled the milk and take it to the room. She heard a shower sound in the bathroom, she kept the milk and water in the side table and went to her bed. Arjun came out in towel in urgent hearing his phone ringing sound. Kayal too sat down hearing the sound thinking Ria might woke up and whether she should put the phone in silent. But suddenly seeing Arjun in towel coming out of bathroom, she was shocked and turned without moving from there. Arjun answered the call from his secretary and went into dressing room to change. Kayal thought her nervousness is becoming higher and higher whenever she is with Arjun, and reminded herself to not to keep up the hopes as she already knows the outcome of it. She went to lie down after making sure Ria is in deep sleep. Arjun came out after changing his clothes, still in phone and took the laptop for checking his email. He finally cut the call after replying to the email, and came to bed. He saw the milk kept in side table and wanted to ignore it knowing who has kept them. But he had his dinner very early in flight, since he didn't have anything on the complete day to catch the flight little early. He felt a little hungriness, so he drank the milk and lied down next to Ria holding her. He missed his daughter.
