Desire 12
What is she wearing?
This dress on her was just made to make him lose the
last part of his sanity…
He looked at her as she opened the door for him
They looked at each other…
It’s like an electric current passed between them
-you don’t want me to enter?
He finally asked with his husky voice
-hmm?
She’s not sure she heard him right, she’s too busy
checking him out too
-you like what you see?
-like you like what you see!
-that’s a good point! Do you want me in?
-please…
She said walking back to give him space to enter her
territory
-so, here is your home!
-yes!...Welcome!
He looked at her and suddenly, pulled her to
him…catching her lips with his…
Closing the door behind with his back before he
deepened the kiss the more
That was intense…
He missed her already
God…
What to do?
She was his this morning…but now…he needs her again…he
needs to feel her…
When they are out of breath…she just smiled to him and
bitted her lower lip…it was more to taste him more in her lips…
That toxic kiss…
She walked back
-…come in…
She said holding his hand and guiding him to a sofa…
Her little apartment is so warm and welcoming…
Arnav looked at how clean her place is and how every
detail was special and personal
From the light grey curtains to the white soft sofa
they sit in…
She handed him a cup of a golden drink…
He drinks it and looked at her:
-I know your favorite drink!
She said proudly as he arched his eyebrow and smiled
-I remembered that in every party in RM, you drink the
same thing…this kind of wine…isn’t it?
-how you bought this? This is so…
-yes! it’s damn expensive! But…it’s worth it! for you!
-worth it…
He repeated and made her come closer
-you know my favorite drink?
He asked
-hmmm
She nodded, he was holding her hand and She felt his hand tightened the hold the more…she
loved the way he holds her hand….she loved it!
-are you hungry? I prepared the dinner which is so
simple…it’s because I’m not a great cooker, I’m trying…
She pouted, he smiled…at the way she’s talking, it was
like they are a real couple…
Are they a real couple now??? He prefers not to think
about it for now
-….you guess what I cooked
He was so amused…he smirked and without answering her,
he just leaned and kissed her bare shoulder
-Arnav? Any guesses?
-about what?
-about the dinner? Which I prepared?
-anything would be surely good!
-don’t be so kind! I will get used to it!
He laughed…
-so?...you guess the dinner!
-hmm…something simple and cooked by you and I can
smell it khushi! it’s pizza!
-woooww…you guess it so fast!
She seems disappointed
He pulled her chin up
-but it’s smelling so good, I want to eat it so fast!
She felt proud, held his hand and guided him to the
dining table…
-really?...then come!
He looked at the romantic way, she’s preparing all
this dinner : the table, the candles and then he looked back at her
-what? I just tried to make it look like we are in a
restaurant for real
He smiled and sits down
Bits on one slice of pizza
-is it good?
-perfect!
She smiled to him and invited him to taste more
she made so many kinds of pizza…slices with cheese;
others are with mushrooms and others with only tomatoes and olives…
Arnav ate from all…khushi prefers the ones with cheese
After dinner, they have their dessert on the sofa of
the living room
And the dessert is just vanilla ice cream that khushi
added on it chocolate sauce
Khushi switches on the TV
And sits next to Arnav on the sofa
-Anjeli called me, she’s missing me and tomorrow I
will visit her in your home!
-we will be glad, Miss Gupta…and I know how much
Anjeli is missing you…Nani too
She smiled
-they are my second family…I love them so much too…I
have no one but them
-no one but them? Seriously?
She smiled but the smile didn’t reach her eyes
It vanished so fast…
And then suddenly, she hugs him, hides her face
against his chest
-what happened?
-nothing…I just…thank you for being here tonight!
He looked straight and deeply at her eyes…
-you know that you don’t have to thank me…I did…what
happened khushi?
He asked as he saw her face went pale
-khushi?
-it’s nothing…nothing!...I want to watch a movie with
you!
-ok!
He said smiling
she smiled and then her smile vanished again
-khushi?
-it’s nothing!
She went from there for a second…
She’s feeling a huge pain in her stomach…the pain is
augmenting…
And she starts to worry…
If this pain is due to her period then…what she goanna
tell to Arnav????
And then how she could hide her pain from him????
Even if she will have a painkiller right now, it will
not help…
She knows what will happen every time…even so, she had
some medicines, hoping it will help and returns to the living room smiling
Arnav starts zapping the channels on TV, in the hope
to find a movie but stopped seeing how much khushi was pale and forcing a smile
whenever he looked at her
-khushi? the movie is your idea! if you don’t want it,
let’s just talk!
He tried to hold her hand but he saw that she used her
hand to hold her stomach…her fingers clutch the fabric of her dress and she
bitted her lower lip
-khushi???
-Arnav! It’s paining!
-what?...where? here? In your stomach?
His warm hand is in a second holding her hand which is
above her stomach
-is it due to the dinner?
He asked worriedly
-you should go!
She said holding his cheek with her free hand
-what? What are you talking about?...khushi! you’re
pale! You’re not alright!...let me just call a doctor!
-no! no! ahhh (she moaned from pain)…already…OMG!
She stands up from there and went to her room running…
Arnav followed her but she closed the door…
***********************
When she opened the door finally, she was wearing her pajama
A pink one with hello kitty on it…
She was pale
-khushi?! how dare you close the door!?
He was standing before her, all worried, irresistibly
worried, he knocked the door so many times but she refused to open…and now,
he’s more worried
-khushi?! are you pregnant?
-what? No…no…
-don’t hide such thing from me!
-Arnav…we made love only since a week, that doesn’t
mean I will…no!
-so? Is that because u ate pizza? Or due to the ice
cream???
-no!
She bitted her lips as she felt the pain again…she
entered her room again and lied on the bed
-so?
He followed and sits next to her, pulling her hair
away from her face…
-you should go…I’m …Arnav…Arnav…I’m…
She held her stomach again…
But this time, Arnav pull her hand away and starts
massaging her belly with his warm palm…
-you have your period khushi…
-no…no…
She blushed furiously…
-yes…shhh…it’s ok! It’s ok! Khushi! I know you’re a
woman! such things could happen any moment
He looked at her amused and caressed her cheek
-no…you’re not supposed to know about this!
She said childishly
-oh really?!
-it’s so embarrassing
She pouted and turned her back to him, laying in the
other side of the bed
-what do you think of me khushi? you think I’m a
teenage boy who will freak out, knowing you have your..
-No! don’t repeat it again!
She said finally facing him
He leaned and surprised her by a warm kiss on her
cheek
-times like that! What could help you, khushi? tell
me!
He said seriously, hoping she would tell him
-if…
She hesitated
-tell me anything!
-keep massaging my tummy…
She said looking down, she couldn’t face him anymore,
she knows it…it’s so embarrassing
Godddd
-ok!
She couldn’t believe that the great ASR…
The one she meets this morning for an interview…
The one who is commanding a whole powerful business
territory is now just massaging her tummy to take the pain away
-like that?
He pressed gently
-yes…please
-is it paining too much?
-so…much…
She’s so pale…
He kept massaging
-is it like that for always
-one time a month…it’s…so painful…always…no help
-try to sleep! It will help…
-hmm
-close your eyes!
-please…stay! Stay for tonight!...just stay here...
-I’m here! I'm here khushi! I'm not going any where!
He said gently…she couldn’t believe this…
Him…
In her room, her bed…
He’s there not to love her…or to fuck her like he
always said but just…
He was there to massage her tummy…
Because she has her period and it’s so paining
He’s there and the pain wasn’t huge anymore
His warm palm was easing it gradually…or it is due to
the pills she has moment back, she doesn’t know…
She’s sure it is him…
He was there…
How it helps!!
she felt safe…it’s better…she doesn’t know how she
slept…
**********
How a woman could be so pretty, so hot, so sexy taking
your breath away and at the same time too cute, childish, innocent making your
heart beats so fast…
He smiled seeing her sleeping so deeply now…
he kissed the crook of her neck as he lied finally
next to her in the bed
The bed was so little to take them both…but he kept
her in his arms carefully…
He switches the light off…and slept next to her
