Mumbai

' Bela, Vikrant is coming tonight. He has some work. ', Vish said to Bela as they just returned to their home.

' Okay, good. It has been a long time since we met him.' , replied Bela.

' Don't worry this time he's coming for a month. All four of us will enjoy a lot.' , said Vish.

Bela looked at Vish questioningly , ' Four? '

' Actually, Vyom is also coming with him. We're busy all day. What will he do alone at home?
That's why! I hope you don't have any problem?', replied Vish.

Bela said, ' Arre, What problem would I have? Vyom is my friend too.'

Vish nodded her head nervously while biting her nails.

Both prepared dinner for four people.

At 7 pm,
Bela and Vish were standing in the compound of the building waiting for Vikrant.
Bela was standing in front of Vish facing her back to the gate.

Suddenly, she noticed a dog behind Vish. She, having a serious phobia of dogs, started moving backwards.

She was moving backwards when her leg hit a large stone.

Bela was about to fall when a strong pair of arms held her protectively.
Bela had closed her eyes due to fear of falling.
But she instantly recognised his touch and his masculine scent.

' Mahir! ', said Bela and then opened her eyes.

That same charming face, that same hazel brown eyes, that same magical heartbeats, that same damn man.
HER MAN!

Mahir's condition was no less.
He was feeling as if whole world was there in his arms.

After few minutes of intense gazing, Mahir made her stand properly, still holding her arms.

He cupped her cheeks out of love and affection but all the bad memories came gushing into Bela's mind.
She removed his hands from her face and asked with a plain face, ' What are you doing here? '

Before Mahir could reply, Vikrant came and hugged Bela.
' Heyy, buddy! How are you? ', asked Vikrant to Bela.

' I am good. Where is Vyom? ', asked Bela.

Vikrant replied, ' Actually, Vyom got some urgent work. That's why Mahir came with me. '

Bela was about to deny Mahir for staying with them when Vish whispered in her ears, ' Bela, please don't deny. I know what you must be feeling. But at least don't upset Vikrant's mood. See how happy he is.'

Bela nodded reluctantly.

All four of them went upstairs to the flat.

Bela was having mixed emotions in her mind when she saw Mahir but then she remembered the farewell night and the feeling of anger overpowered her.

Vish served the dinner and all four of them ate in utter silence.

After dinner, Vish and Vikrant left to their room with an intention to provide privacy to Mahir and Bela.

Bela stood up and started walking towards her room but Mahir held her wrist.

' How are you, Bela? ', asked Mahir.

' That's none of your business. Leave my hand.', replied Bela.

Mahir grinned, ' Nahh, I am not going to leave your hand until you answer me properly. '

Bela was irritated, ' I am fine. Happy? Now leave my hand. '

Mahir pulled her cheeks playfully, ' Very happy. Although you didn't ask but still, I am also fine after seeing you. '

Bela ignored him and again started walking towards her room.

Mahir blocked her way and asked, ' Okay, at least tell me where I have to sleep? '

Bela replied briefly, ' That's your problem. '

Mahir smirked, ' Okay, then. Let's go to our bedroom. '

Bela glared, ' Whattt? '

Mahir fumbled, ' I...I mean your bedroom. '

Bela asked, ' And why do you think I'll allow you to sleep in my bedroom? '

' For the sake of humanity. ', said Mahir, ' See, there are only two bedrooms in your flat.
Also, Vish and Vikrant have occupied one room.
You cannot sleep with Vish as you study till late night and she wakes up early in the morning to study.
Neither I can sleep with Vish nor will I let you sleep with Vikrant.
The couch in your living room is very small. So, I cannot fit.
Also, the weather is very cold. So, I cannot sleep on the floor.
Also, the...'

' Enough! ', said Bela frustratingly, ' You can sleep in my room.
But stay in your limits. '

Mahir nodded his head like a kid and both entered into the bedroom.

(Extremely sorry for being late!
But December seems to be really hectic for me.!😋)
