If Sushant's Back?

Its Okay

'H.. Hello sir. It is such a pleasure to hear your voice. I... I donno how to react sir... A great personality like you has called on my phone... Please do tell me if I can help you with anything' I said... I was really surprised tons of questions aroused in my mind but I couldn't ask any of them. I just kept quiet and heard all that he said.

'Hello, Ms. Payal... A pleasure to talk to you. I've heard that today is your birthday?' he said.

'Umm... Yes sir... But can I know how did you acquire my number?' I asked hesitantly.

' I have connections dear... don't you worry about that. So, to make our trending young lady's birthday special am throwing a party for you. I hope you grace the event with your presence.' he said and dropped the call. He didn't even give me a chance to speak....

' Who was it? ' asked Sushant... He had been silent all this while. I guess he could read my face... The terror and the confusion. I stood there without answering to him. He jerked my shoulder and gestured asking what happened. I nodded my head to avoid the discussion.

I was so confused of what was happening. Sush knew something was wrong and kept on asking. I kept dodging all his questions.

It was my birthday and it meant to be special... And all i was doing was worrying. Finally I decided to get rid of all these worries and tell everything to Sush... I knew he might get angry as I posted his personal details but at the end of the day he'll make sure am safe.

I sit on my bed and Sush sat opposite to me. I couldn't look into his eyes... He placed his hand on my thigh I filled up myself with courage and then began to speak...
'Sush... I've some thing to tell you,....' I told him everything... He just sat listening... Silently. He was so silent I doubted if he was even there.. But his hand on my thigh didn't move an inch. Explaining I hold his hand.. My cheeks were wet...

Finally I was done telling him I looked at him. I could see his blurred face. Finally that blur got cleared as a tear escaped from my eye. I felt his hand on my cheek brushing off my tear. He smile and consoled me," Its okay dear, I know it happened by chance. Don't worry nothing will go wrong..." and pulled me to his chest. I relaxed a bit... His chilled body gave me the warmth I needed. laying my head in his Chest I asked, "what should I do now? Should I go or not?"

"Its upto you Payal. I wouldn't stop you... I've lived my life my way and here's where I stand, so am not the right person to take advices from... I leave to you." saying this he caressed my hair..

I layed there for a while. All that while I was thinking what to do next. Finally decided to go.
