---------------------------------------------------------Erica pushed open the door of Kabir's cabin, he was standing near the large desk, discussing some sort of strategies with Saurav and he was diligently jotting down notes, his brow furrowed in concentration.
As the door swung open, Kabir's serious expression transformed into a bright smile that lit up his face. He immediately abandoned his conversation, striding towards Erica with an infectious excitement. "You are here!!!" he exclaimed, pulling her close and wrapping his arms around her waist.
Erica felt her heart flutter but she quickly remained composed "Kabir... someone is here," she said, glancing toward Saurav, who was now awkwardly avoiding their gaze.
"Hello, ma'am," Saurav said, quickly gathering his things and exiting the room, leaving the two alone.
Kabir turned his attention back to Erica. He took her hands in his "Bangles!!!" he said with an admiring smile, his gaze lingering on her hands.
Erica rolled her eyes playfully, trying to maintain her serious demeanor. "Listen Kabir I am not free like you. I came here for something important you know!!!!" she replied, attempting to sound stern.
"Okkkhhay!!!! And what is it?" Kabir said, leaning closer, his lips brushing against her fingers as he lightly kissed her hands.
Erica felt goosebumps but she controlled her reaction . "Your dad gave this file for your signatures!!! I came here for this," she said, extending the file toward him.
Kabir leaned into her hair inhaling the sweet scent of her hair, momentarily lost in the moment. "Kabir, are you even listening to what I am saying?" Erica pressed.
He pulled her closer by the waist. "Hmmmm.....I am listening... Ok give it to me," he murmured . He took the file from her and perched himself on the edge of the desk, flipping it open he took a glance briefly and signed them all.
With the paperwork done, he set the file aside, his eyes darkening with desire. "Now it's all done... Now I get back to what I was doing !" he asked pushing her to the nearby wall burying his face in the crook of her neck both of them got involved in their little makeout session .
Just as their lips were about to meet, the door burst open without a knock. Samaira stormed in, her eyes widening in shock as she froze on the spot, the color draining from her face. The unexpected intrusion shattered the intimate bubble surrounding Kabir and Erica.
"I... I am sorry... I was just..." Samaira stammered, her voice faltering and a certain hurt crossed her eyes .
Erica, feeling a mix of annoyance and embarrassment, shot back, "Don't you have manners to at least knock before entering?"
"I ....am sorry for intruding! Actually, I always found Kabir working here , so sometimes I forget to knock... It ...it....won't happen again," Samaira said, diverting her gaze to the floor.
"Next time, be careful, Samaira," Kabir said, his tone firm yet understanding. He watched as she nodded quickly, before she hurriedly exited from the cabin.
---------------------------------------------------------
Samaira was walking through the corridor tears glistened in her eyes, blurring her vision . She was lost in her thoughts, when she unexpectedly bumped into Anay.
"Hey... Samaira how are you,?" he asked while observing her tear-streaked face.
Samaira quickly wiped her eyes, trying to mask her vulnerability . "I'm good, how are you, Anay? How come you're in the office?" she replied, her voice wavering slightly as she forced a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.
"For some dad's work," he replied in a lighter tone. "Umm... coffee?" Anay asked.
Samira tried to deny it but Anay took her with him anyway.
---------------------------------------------------------
As Erica entered the mansion she found Anay seated on the couch, his mind clearly elsewhere looked like He had been waiting for her.
"Here it is," Erica said, handing him the file before she turned toward the staircase.
"Erica!" Anay called out, She paused, glancing back at him.
"Thank you," he said with a smile.
his smile felt very different to Erica but anyway she nodded in approval and went to her room.
---------------------------------------------------------
At midnight -
----------------------After a few blissful hours of intimacy, Erica and Kabir lay intertwined beneath a cozy duvet. Erica nestled her head on Kabir's bicep, her fingers playfully tracing the lines of his hand.
"Kabir!!!!"
"Hmmm?" he mumbled looking up .
"Was your first time with me???" she asked with curiosity in her voice.
Kabir shifted slightly, meeting her gaze with a playful seriousness. "Baby, I think we should sleep now!" He dramatically covered his eyes with his forearm, a mock gesture of evasion.
But Erica wasn't having any of it. With a swift motion, she sat up on his stomach, her expression suddenly serious. She placed a hand theatrically on her throat to choke him. "Tell me honestly, otherwise I will strangle you!" she declared, her eyes narrowing with a hint of jealousy.
Kabir burst into laughter, the sound echoing warmly in the quiet room. He gently removed her hand from her throat, still chuckling. "Ummm.... no... it was when I was in the USA during my college days!" he confessed, a hint of hesitation in his voice.
"How many girls?" Erica asked, her brow furrowing .
"Two or three, but honestly, it didn't really consume my mind. After that, nothing..." he said, pulling her back into the safety of his arms, his voice softening.
"Before you, nothing ever attracted me as much as you do apart from business," he added, his tone sincere.
"Do you miss them?" Erica asked, her curiosity piqued.
"What???? No... I don't even remember their names! It was just some casual flings, that's it. Are you angry?" he asked, cupping her cheeks with his hands, concern flickering in his eyes.
"No, but... thoda bura laga," she admitted, her lips curling into a pout that was impossible to resist.
"When you came into my life, I had no one. And apart from you, there will be no one, Erica." He leaned down, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead and he wrapped her in his arms.
Slowly they both drifted to sleep, wrapped in each other's arms.
