Paris
"He's here" Krishna announced as he saw Raman entering the conference room where all of them were working together. Shagun wanted to go to him because she knew how difficult it was for him to choose this company yet again but she backed off. To save the company was more important to them, than anything else. They worked the whole day and finally Raman figured out something that can save the company from getting sued. Shagun thought it wouldn't have been possible without Raman. The team was working since morning. Raman ordered all of them to go. Everybody left. Shagun stayed.
She came to him and sat next to his chair. She patted him on the back and said, "Thank you for coming. I know it was very difficult for you." Raman replied," Don't thank me, this is my company. I need to set my priorities right. " He left the conference room. She could see how much he was hurt. She continued her work.
After an hour
Shagun saw Raman sitting in his cabin, it was so late and he had eaten nothing since morning. She went in. She said, " I'm dropping you home." He replied, " I can go by myself. Thank you. "
She went closer to him and said," Don't you get what I said, I know you are hurt, stop acting like you are the strongest person and I can handle you being rude to me but I'm not leaving you alone here. Come with me."
He didn't get up from his chair, she took his hand and pulled him out of the chair. He wasn't stopping himself now. He walked with her, both their hands entwined tightly.
She drived to his place, they stopped at his place and He said, "I can go alone from here, you should go."
Shagun ignored whatever he said. After he got down from the car, Shagun took his hand again and said, " I don't like free advices and you know that."
They entered the house, she went to the kitchen and he went to sit on the sofa. She already ordered the food and now she was getting it all ready on the dinning table. After 15 minutes, she called him and said, "The food's ready." She waited for him but he didn't come. She didn't want to force him again so she waited. She waited for 10 minutes and then she had enough. She went and sat near him.
S: Okay let's not have food because we missed our flight. We don't deserve the food because we missed our flight.
S: I'm not going to tell you that it's okay because I know it is not. It is not okay for you.
S: But now that you have made the choice, you need to stop thinking about the choice you didn't make.
S: Thinking about it won't change anything.
She moved closer to him letting her arm roll over his shoulder.
S: You'll get over it. We are together in this.
A tear from his eye dropped on her thigh, she couldn't see him crying.
She took his face in her hands and started wiping his tears.
S: Cry it out, it'll make you feel better.
He was staring her now. He removed her hands from his face. He moved closer to her face and
KISSED HER
He kept kissing her and she could feel the pain through this kiss,so she didn't take herself back this time. She kissed him back. He stopped for breathing. He again kissed her. He started kissing her jawline and then shifted to her neck. He pushed her down to the sofa and was all over her kissing her everywhere. He started unzipping her dress. She stopped him.
S: We can't do this. This is wrong.
S: What about Ish..
Before she could say anything further he kissed her again.
R: Nothing's wrong. Let it all be about us right now. Everything else can wait.
He picked her up and went to the bedroom. And they had sex.
Next morning
She woke up finding both of them naked, him sleeping in her arms like a baby. She took her phone and texted the stranger.
"It happened."
She got up from the bed wearing his shirt and went to the kitchen. She saw the food as it was last night. They both didn't eat anything. Her phone rang.
She picked up.
St: Finally, you made me proud. I can now say you are not a total loser.
S: Will you stop?
S: He doesn't love me, it happened because he was so upset. I'm actually a loser.
St: Shut up, he was in his full senses when all this happened. He wasn't even drunk. I'm shocked. But everything happens for a reason. Stop feeling bad for it and start enjoying it.
S:You know what, let it be. Give me some time.
And she disconnected the call. She started making her coffee, while her coffee was being prepared. She went and sat near the window thinking about how beautiful it was for her last night if she keeps everything apart.
She was lost in her thoughts, when he came from behind and bit her earlobe. She was surprised. He moved her hair and kissed her neck.
"Good Morning" He said.
He came and sat near her.
"Good Morning" She replied.
"How do you feel?" She asked.
He came closer and whispered to her ear," It was the best night of my life. All I can remember from yesterday is the night with you. They say it right, Everything happens for a reason."
She didn't want to say it but she did. " Raman, it just happened because you were upset. I'm sorry."
He kept his finger on her lips and took her hand in his.
R: Stop it, it wasn't because I was upset. It was destined to be. It made me realise how from the last 10 years you have been always there for me. And i have never been there for you when you needed me the most. I love being with you but I never accepted that to myself. Last night made me realise how I've been losing on you from so long.
S:Stop!
R: No let me talk. I want to be there for you. I want to love you. I want to be with you. I wanna give you every happiness you sacrificed for me all these years. And today we celebrate us. And sorry that I tore your dress. You can take your revenge. *winking at her*
He took her phone and texted Krishna that they are not coming office today and whatever it is they know he can handle it and switched off his phone.
R: We're officially booked for each other. Now no more time wasting. Time for your revenge.
She was so happy hearing this, she ran to the bedroom and He ran to catch her. They both started playing with the pillows in the room, he finally caught her and dropped her in the bed.
Both of them slept together for the whole day, enjoying, kissing and playing.
