A-neil...?
Neil...tum...sach men...?
Neil tu...tum...sa...ch... men...yaha ho?

N-haa jaan- im back

Avni hugged him ad tight as she could

A-i missed you alot neilu
Im so sorry for fighting with you

N-sshhh
Im sorry too jaan
But...what was the nightmare ?

A(avoiding eye contact)-no
Nothing

N-accha?
Then why did you shiver& woke up suddenly in sleep?
Kya hua?

A-nahi kuch nahi

Neil sat in the bed, in front of her

A-Tum toh 3/4 din baad aane wale they na?

N-haa
Kyu?
Wapas chala jau?
Theek h
He got up& was about to move when avni held his hand& he smiled in response

N-i was just kidding(pulling her nose)
Actually dealer wala kaam jaldi khatam hogya toh socha sabko surprise du- especially tumhe

But yaha toh situation kuch aur hi h
Plz batao na kya hua?
Whats bothering you?
Dekho agar tumne nahi bataya na toh men tumse katti hojaunga (pouting)

A-hume alag hona padega neil

N-ye tum kya keh rahi ho sweetheart?

A-agar men tumhari zindagi men rahi toh tumhari jaan ko khatra h

N-kisne kaha tumse ye sab?
Aur kyu?

A-wo men tumhe nahi bta sakti
Kyuki tum toh kya-koi bhi muje trust nahi karega

N-why jaan?

A-Bcz i dont have proof

N-avu trust me
Plz batao na kya hua

N-jis evening tum out of city gaye dealer se milne, uske agli subah

Flashback-

Men apne cabin men kaam karri thi jab muje reception se call aya ke juhi wants to meet me

Humare argument ke baad mera mood already kharaab tha but mene usse aane diya

She started accusing me ke...

N-kya jaan?

A-ke mene tumhe usse cheen liya h
Mujse pehle tum usse pyaar karte they

N-what nonsense
Men toh usse company men jhel bhi sirf isiliye raha hu kyuki wo dad ke ek purane friend ki beti h

Jis din usne company join kari thi tabse muje seduce karne ki koshish karri h lekin mene usse aaj din tak koi galat signal nahi dia h
Tumhe pta h men usse chuhi kyu bulata hu?

Avni nodded negatively

N-bcz shes too damn clingy
Aur sirf yahi nahi, ek baar toh humari families ne humari shaadi ke baare men bhi soch lia tha

Avni widened her eyes in shock

N-but bebe knew that although i didnt showed it, the fact was that i was never interested in her
So bebe helped me

After college, she sent me to a foreign branch of our company as an intern& bcz she was the eldest, dad didnt go against her decision- hence saving me forever

I know her very well avu-
Company men kaam karna toh ek excuse h

She actually wants to do what she couldnt do few yrs back- marrying me or rather, achieving me so thay she can flaunt me as a trophy in front of everyone

Shes extremely money minded &damn materialistic

A(low tone)- sahi kaha tumne neil

N-matlab?

A- she was threatening me

N-about what?

A- she said that she has lot of confidential data about khanna industries business& will leak it to our rivals if i dont leave your life

Aur agar mene esa nahi kia, toh wo muje maar degi& tumhari jaan ko bhi khatre men daal degi

Muje apni jaan ki fiqr nahi h neil- muje sirf tumhari safety ko leke fiqr h

Uss din se men apne kaam pe bilkul focus nahi kar payi
Men tumhe kuch nahi hone de sakti thi neil aur na hi kisi ko ye bata sakti thi kyuki mere paas koi proof nahi tha

Flashback over

N-how dare you say that tumhe apni fiqr nahi h huh?
Muje fiqr h tumhari kyuki tum hi meri jaan ho
He cupped her face

N-Avni h tabhi neil h
Avni ke bina neil bhi adhura h

Avni moved forward &hugged neil as tight as she could&started sobbing in his arms

N(rubbing her back)-sshhh
Bas jaan
Ek khel chuhi ne tumhare saath khela h
Ek khel hum uske saath khelenge(smirks)

A-you believe what i said?
Im not lying
I wish i had a proof

N-of course i trust you& i know my avu would never lie to me kyuki sach bolne ke liye himmat chahiye hoti h- jhoot bolna ke liye nahi
And its time for chuhi to pay for her deeds

A-tum kya karne wale ho neilu?

N-just wait& watch

A-whatever it is, im supporting you
I love you alot neilu

N-i know jaan
He kissed her forehead

Avni broke the hug

A-tum fresh ho jao, men kuch khane ke liye lati hu

N-khaane ki zarurt nahi h-i had dinner in flight itself
Men bas fresh hoke ata hu

He opened his stroley& took a pair of nightwear
He went to freshen up& took a long hot shower bcz he was exhausted after the journey

When he came out, he was about to move towards the sofa when avni stopped him& indicated him to sleep beside her

N-avu will you be comfortable?

A-you are doubtful even after the time i spent in your condo?
Plz?

Neil smiled& lay beside her

Avni was missing his warmth& the daily hugs they shared in office so she shifted her head on his chest &soon slept off while neil wrapped his arm below her& pulled her closer
He kissed her hair& soon sleep took over him as well

I know its short but plz bare with me for the moment
I will update soon
