THE MISTRESS ✔️ (COMPLETED)

57~ Ravishing Red

Kabir sat at the edge of the bed and was tying his shoe-lace when Kavita entered the room. He looked up and was surprised to see her still dressed in a nightie.

He frowned upon seeing her worried face, - 'What happened?' He asked. She looked dazed.

'Kabir.' She said worriedly and sat beside her husband. Kabir shifted little and looked at her with concern. Slowly, she moved her head and looked up at him.

'Please don't go to the office today.' – She was close to crying, Kabir held her shoulder, - 'Naren is having high fever since last night.' She said, her voice trembled.

'What?' Kabir's eyes widened. She nodded as tears fell from her eyes.

'Why didn't you tell me before?' He sounded outraged. Kavita shook her head and cried.

'Because you are tensed because of the officer and work. I didn't want to stress you more.' She said. Kabir exhaled deeply and took a moment to speak.

He placed his palm on her shoulder and squeezed it gently, she closed her eyes and let more tears fall.

'Kavita, jaan,' – He held her chin and made her look at him, she looked back with teary eyes, - 'Nothing is more important to me other than Naren.' – He smiled little, - 'I won't go to the office today.' He said firmly.

Kavita let out the breath she had been holding and leaned resting her head on his shoulder.

'Thank you so much, Kabir.' She said in a small voice.

Kabir moved his arm behind her and placed his palm on the back of her head and caressed her hair.

Monica took extra effort to look good for Eshaan. She had planned to thank him and try to gain his attention. She wore a deep V-neck red short dress. The dress had a deep V-neck and reached till her mid-thigh.

She smiled looking at her reflection as she tied the knot at the back. Then, she picked up black closed Stiletto and quickly wore them. She looked back at her reflection and began applying blood-red lipstick.

Jhanvi walked into the room carrying a plate of Maggi noodles and stopped in her tracks. She watched Monica apply eye-liner. She capped the eye-liner and placed it on the table. Jhanvi stuffed her mouth with a spoonful of Maggi and continued to watch her. Monica applied the mascara.

After she was done with the kohl she turned and saw Jhanvi standing at the door and staring at her.

'Yes?' Monica frowned. Jhanvi gulped the food and smiled at her.

'You are very beautiful.' She complimented. Monica simply nodded and looked away.

'Thanks.' She replied placing the sling of her red and black bag on her forearm. Jhanvi smiled. Then, Monica picked up her phone and called Ramsen. He informed her that he was waiting down with the car. Monica cut the call and looked at Jhanvi.

'I am going to work. Take care of the house.' – She walked towards Jhanvi and stopped beside her, - 'And stay away from my things.' She said sternly. Jhanvi gulped and nodded. Then, Monica flipped her short hair haughtily and walked out of the room.

Eshaan was getting irritated because they were to start shooting the ad, but their main model was late. He knew after last night she would have been exhausted but work is work and she should be professional and come on time. He glanced at his wristwatch and sighed. Just as he looked up Monica walked in with Ramsen following her. He looked at her and she smiled, removing her sunglasses. As she walked towards him Eshaan noticed she was wearing the same V-neck short red dress he had once gotten her as a gift.
