Alone Or Lonely?

THE DATE CONCLUDES

" Me ! Really? " she exclaimed in an exasperated tone.

" Yeah! "

Mira had a mix of varied emotions ushering through her system. She was overjoyed, a little bit confused, a little shocked, a little excited and a little of almost all other littles that we have in The Human Psychology Emotions! This time around not just her heart but her brain too was working double shifts, as there was this huge confusion of what to emote and what not to.

" Mira, where are you lost? C'mon have your food, it's getting cold" he said keeping his hand onto hers and literally shaking her hard to bring her mind back to its conscious state.

" Yeah, yeah... of course!"

They quickly finished their food and sipped in their cold beverages. Their pleasant faces showed that it indeed was a wholesome affair.
Mira too was no exception. Her face showed signs of pleasure, a sense of fulfillment and a weird feeling of happiness.

As they profoundly say, sometimes it's just the food that makes up for a wholesome meal. But sometimes it's the person with whom you share your food that makes up for this wholesome affair. If you have an endearing company to share your meal even the most average food can give you a wholesome feel!

" Enough of your questioning and my answering" he blurted suddenly.
" Now technically it's my turn." he said with his evil playful smile slowly returning on his face.
She stood in silence carefully anticipating his next move.

" Now I will ask you to do something, and I expect you to obey me." he said.

" Go on ...."

" Without any questions, just come with me wherever I take you now!"
She was surprised and somewhat confused.

" I hadn't questioned you even before you brought me here." she said casually.

" Yeah Mira, I know. But this is different. This is not part of your treat! So just obey me and follow me." he said in a weird tone.

She merely nodded. It was difficult to guess what was going on in his mind. Her mouth was silent, but her brain was boggling with questions which needed to be answered. She manually followed him and they rode off on his bicycle.
The journey was not a long one. Soon in a matter of couple of minutes, he parked his vehicle grabbed her hand and began walking. Mira was completely clueless of the happenings around her yet something in her had completely seized her ability to retaliate and she merely went on. She looked around, just to see the crowd besides her giving her wierd gazes. But again these bunch did not matter to her, she was in her own world and would not let even the minutest of the thing to ruin her mood. So completely ignoring them like a slight grey in a horde of black she kept going just to see where they would land in.
A tiny cliff sort of a thing on the countryside was what they ended up on.

" Why have you brought me here?" she asked in amusement.

" Bungee Jumping" came a somewhat fat and stout reply.

"No please, I can't do this!" she pleaded.

" I could make out that you haven't, but now you have to. Trust me, you'll enjoy this. You need this." Saying this he gently held her hand and glided her through the arena.
By now her feet had become heavy; she was unable to lift them up. Her hands had become cold. Her spine felt rigid, as though it had lost flexibility and streams of sweat could be seen pouring down her temple. Yet somehow the mere touch of this man, managed to give her the strength to overcome all these odds!
Still standing by the edge of the cliff, she seemed to have second thoughts. Harnesses had been tied, the straps were tightened and now she just had to go for the big move. She began getting jittery not knowing what to do next. Suddenly, a pair of hands wrapped her by the waist from behind and pulled her backwards. A soft whisper came upto her ear from the backside and said
" Stop fretting, Mira! Don't worry, we are doing this together."

Kabir's words were like magic. All her fear, her anxiousness and anxiety now seemed to take a back seat. Her face suddenly started showing glimpses of a confident smile. She now felt secure in the tight clutches of his arms.
" Okay, now just trust me and close your eyes."

She blindly followed his every single command.

" Now just think that you are in a ditch made up of your own frustration and anger that you have for certain people, that you had during certain incidents. By not letting yourself out, you are getting drowned even deeper and deeper. There's only a way to come out of that ditch and for that you have to jump, with all your might. You have to make yourself free from the clutches of your own emotions. Just let them go, do not cling on to them. Make yourself free, take a stand, come out, cmon...JUMP!"

With this he held her firm and they both jumped off! It was a thrill in itself. Mira had never experienced this before. This adrenaline rush was unusual. It's excitement couldn't be expressed in mere few words.
"Thank you, it was indeed great fun. Now I feel much better." she said with a calm smile.

"It's okay, no need to be formal and thank me."

" No you really have earned it. How come you knew I exactly needed this?"she asked curiously.

"I do this often. It always works for me as a stress buster. It oozes out all my stress, frustration and anger and always calms me down. So I figured may be it might work out for you as well!" he said coolly.
She smiled gratefully.She was also very happy because He had thought so much of her. With each of his moves and with each of his single word this guy was literally impressing her in almost all the things that he did.

" Cmon let's go from here now!" he said.

" Now where? And what do I have to do now?" she asked enthusiastically.

" Your Hotel Mira. Now you need to go to your room and rest".

Hearing this, the glow on Mira's face seemed to fade out.

" Can't you stay for more time?" she begged.

" No you go... You need to go" he said almost commanding.

In the next episode: What will Mira do with this new bundle of emotions? Till where exactly will her relationship with Kabir go? Will Ri and Sam know all of this??
