after we reached the apartment, she gave me the guest room and i changed there. we then ordered some chinese.
till the time it came, it had started raining so we both sat in her balcony which was quite spacious and beautiful. there were potted plants, a swing and two small chairs with a coffee table.
"waise, meri meeting to agle hafte hai." i said.
"arey accha hai na, iss hafte maze karenge. mera bhi office agle hafte se shuru hai." she jumped.
i laughed at her excited state. we both sat there in the balcony for hours and talked about random stuff.
"kartik." she called out.
"hm?"
"take it all out." her gentle voice did something in my stomach.
i wanted to rant about so many things going on in my life. i really wanted. i trusted her but somewhere i was scared? scared of losing her.
"it... it all started when i was nine. shiv, my elder brother, he was playing near the society pool. dadu, i and him where there. dadu told... he told him not to go towards the pool... but he still went... he slipped in the pool. he didn't knew how to swim but i did, so i went and pulled him out... he was crying badly. when... when dadu-" i choked as i remembered the very first incident which started all this.
"shh... it's fine. calm down, i'm here." she muttered softly and squeezed my hand.
"dadu took us home and shiv said that i pushed him. dadu... he was such a good man. he tried telling my parents... that i didn't and he slipped himself but they talked to him so rudely... i was slapped, twice. after that day... i never spoke to them properly, kyuki uske baad jo kuch bhi hua usse seh kar mai toot gaya. mujhe dadu ne guitar khareed kar diya tha mere birthday par. mujhe singer banna tha, but shiv ko naya tablet chahiye tha. toh mumma papa ne mera guitar bech diya. aur iss sabke pehle dadu ki death ho chuki thi. marr gaya tha andar se aur tabse yeh daant, maar, taane sunta aa raha hu. ab toh fark bhi nahi padta." i sniffed.
i watched naira stand up and hug me tightly. "you didn't deserve this, kartik... you're too sweet for this world. i will always be there for you. you're not alone. not anymore." she muttered making my heart swell.
i stayed there for a month, and this was the best month of my entire life. i genuinely started to like her. after i came back to delhi, we talked daily. either on texts or phone calls.
everything was going perfectly and according to our plan. a whole year passed, i even asked her to be my girlfriend and she said yes!
our families didn't knew about us because we didn't let them know. right now, we were in a hotel in mumbai for shiv and bhabhi's one year anniversary.
naira and i stayed together the whole time and planned our escape. "i've called the driver, jo hume yaha se station lekar jayenge. tum apna luggage rakh do usme, mai already rakh chuki hu." instructed naira and we waited outside for the driver.
after the cake cutting celebration, we both stood in the corner; near the drinks. we both sipped on our beers and watched as everyone gushed over bhabhi and shiv. i saw her rolling her eyes at her sister when she saw her uncle rolling a bundle of notes over her head.
"itna paisa mujhe de diya hota toh aaram se apne cs classes ki fees de deti." she huffed and sipped her beer.
"damn.." i muttered.
"yeah..." her phone rang and it was the driver.
"hanji bhaiya, aagye hum." she said and cut the call.
