Tears of Insecurity

Chapter Ninety Seven

Previously -

Susheela closed her eyes and exhaled her breath softly. When she opened her eyes, he was already looking at her with an intense look of adoration, a look which made her feel safe and secure.

Pramod retreated back in his seat and opened his side of the door. Susheela took it as a cue and got out of the car with a twinkle in her eyes and a bright smile on her face. Pramod joined her side and both entwined their fingers together as they went inside the resort.

The day had been spent amazingly well and there was nothing that could top it off.

Susheela and Pramod walked hand in hand, muttering and chatting sweet nothings amongst themselves, completely oblivious to their surroundings. They took the lift and each pressed for their floors. Even the bright sparkling crystal drops of chandeliers were nothing in front of the spark in their eyes. Their smiles were brimming with joy and their ears were buzzing in excitement. When the elevator door opened, Susheela frowned and let go off his hand, instantly missing the warmth that his hand provided her.

Susheela stepped out and waved him a small bye with a shy giggle, completely opposite to her usual self. Pramod raked a hand through his hair with an enormous grin on his face. As the elevator doors closed, Susheela turned around and walked straight down the hallway and towards her room. She fished her bag for her room card, and once she scanned it against the doorknob, she was granted access. Susheela looked around the room and frowned in confusion, the room was as she had left in the morning, untouched. But her sister and her brother were missing.

'Probably somewhere out doing God knows what!', Susheela sighed to herself, her mind come up with an appropriate excuse for her siblings disappearance. Susheela walked towards her wardrobe and pulled out some clothes to change into. Just when she was about to enter in the washroom to have a much needed shower, her phone rang loudly in the empty room. She sighed to herself in exasperation and went back to her bed to fetch her phone.

Susheela quickly picked up her phone when she saw that Lily was calling her. "Hello Lily!", Susheela answered the call cheerfully.

"Hello Miss. Adventure! Kaha ho tum?", Lily asked with a slight laugh.

"Room mein, aur kaha? Tum sab kaha ho lekin?", Susheela enquired.

"Terrace pe hai. Tum aur Pramod jaldi upar aa jaao.", Lily was buzzing with excitement, and Susheela could feel it in her voice.

"Lily, aaj nahi yaar. Aaj bohot thak gayi hu, abhi seedhe sone jaa rahi hu.", Susheela replied as she tried to stifle yet another yawn.

"Wait! What? No! Susheela please upar aa jaao! Maine tumhare liye surprise plan kiya hai! Please jaldi upar aa jaao.", Lily pleaded from the other side of the call.

Susheela rubbed her temples and sighed, "Okay fine! Aa rahi hu. 15 mins mein aa rahi hu.", Susheela replied groaning to herself.

"Ha ha chalega! Take your time!", with that said, Lily quickly the cut the call.

Susheela looked at her blank screen and rolled her eyes. She picked up her towel and threw her phone on the bed lazily and went straight inside the bathroom. She groaned audibly once the hot water from shower tap came cascading down her hair and back, softly caressing her skin, reminding her of a certain someone's soft yet passionate kisses.

Pramod came inside his room and couldn't help but rest his head at the back of his door with a wide smile on his face. What a day it was, Pramod sighed to himself. The day started with a long drive with his beautiful girlfriend by his side, then watching a thunderous match with an energetic crowd, to watching his girl get the trophy she deserves and ending it all with her in his arms. What a day indeed, what a day!
