KaYa OS: A Rain Date, After the Date!

KaYa OS: A Rain Date, After the Date!

The night was getting deeper; slowly the stars and the beautiful moon were lost beyond the clouds. Ananya shivered as the cool wind blew through the window of the car, she frowned for a second because now she couldn’t admire the moonlit long drive that she was on right now with the man of her life, the ever so sexy Kabir Sharma, looking over the top handsome today in his black and white Armani suit. Ananya stole a glance at him every few seconds, they were quiet yet the small smile playing on his lips displayed utter satisfaction and contentment while Ananya didn’t realize she too mirrored his expression, a smile plastered on her face as she kept looking at their entwined hands, with a blush creeping up every second whenever he would lightly caress her hand with his thumb. Every soft caress made the butterflies in her stomach dance excitedly.

She looked at Kabir again, drinking in his beautiful physique, her eyes tracing from hairline to his forehead, his nose, and his lips. She stopped at his lips as the memories of their first date came rushing to her raising goosebumps through her entire body. The way he had kissed her in front of everyone, not caring about anyone else, that determined passion is what ignited their kiss like a fire, and she could still feel her lips burning sweetly, with the sweetness of his love.

Kabir and Ananya were on their first date tonight, after he had spoken to her mother in the morning and gained her permission for their relationship there was nothing else and no barrier stopping him from loving his girl in front of the world. He had amazingly asked Ananya out for a date much to her pleasure, something which she had been waiting for all along, them spending time with each other. When she cutely complained why he hadn’t asked her out earlier, he had given his signature smile and replied that if they were seen publicly before Ananya’s mother came to know of their relation then ofcourse the news would have reached her quickly, but!, from others and he had wanted them to be the ones informing her mother about their love because he knew how hurt she would be if she would get to know about them from others, that is why he had been so hesitant about things till now but now that her mother had given them her blessings then no power in the world could stop him from showering his love on Ananya.

Kabir had come to pick Ananya for the date and had been mesmerized seeing her looking ever so elegant and beautiful, only when he had found Anita and Armaan had started giggling, he looked away embarrassed upon being caught checking-out his own girlfriend. Ananya’s mother had taken her hand and walked to Kabir putting Ananya’s hand in his, she had taken a promise that he will always be with Ananya and love her. Kaya left the house after taking her blessings. Kabir had made arrangements in a posh hotel restaurant for their dinner leaving Ananya all impressed by his taste. The ambience was really romantic and after a splendid dinner, to add cherry on the cake, Kabir had asked her for a dance and they had swayed to the music of their love, the dance was slow and sensuous, taking her in his arms he had confessed yet again and kissed her in front of everyone, she had realized he had meant it when he earlier said that “Kiss toh main tumhe puri duniya ke saamne kar sakta hoon…” he had meant every single word and the onl thing holding him back to declare his love publicly had been her mother’s permission, what man on earth could be such a gentleman? Ananya thought, as they drove further in the outskirts of Delhi.

Slowly the hustle bustle of the city was left behind, they were now in much quieter area and that’s when Ananya came back from her thoughts frowning again as she remembered her annoyance with the clouds for hiding the beautiful full moon and pretty stars that were accompanying them blissfully on this long drive. However, her annoyance changed to delightfulness in a split second as she saw some rain drops fall on her face, as the window glass was down.

Ananya shrieked in excitement, “Baarish!!” she put her hand outside and felt the rain drops, then turned to Kabir, “Baarish ho rahi hai!”

“I know!” Kabir said smiling and Ananya sulked, “Aap ko bearish pasand nahi hai?”

Kabir looked at her confused, “Kisne kaha?”

“Toh itna casual ‘I know’ se main aur kya sochun?” Ananya complained, making Kabir chuckle as he finally looked ahead in contentment knowing their destination had been reached, he turned the car to the right and halted the car.

Stopping the car, he freed them both from their seatbelts then turned to Ananya, “Aur agar main yeh kahun ki mujhe baarish bahot….bahot..bahot…pasand hai toh?” he asked in a an extremely husky voice, coming closer with every ‘bahot’ he said. “Aur agar main yeh kahun ki main wish kar raha tha ki baarish ho jaaye aur meri wish puri ho gayi hai toh?” he asked taking Ananya’s hand in his and kissed her knuckles slowly without breaking the eye-contact making Ananya gasp at the intensity.

“Matlab?” she asked breathlessly.

“Matlab…” he said coming closer, cupping her face, “apni girlfriend ke saath, pehli date pe, mausam ki pehli baarish mein romance karna kitna anokha hoga haina? Zindagi bhar yaadgaar rahegi!” saying that he captured her quivering lips into his manly ones. “You’re tastier than chocolate…” he said slowly breaking the kiss, making Ananya blush beet root red.

Kabir got off the car and opened the door for Ananya. He offered his hand; she took it and came out of the car. Still holding her hand he lead her through the small dark forest and suddenly they were in a beautifully lit place, as Ananya removed her eyes from Kabir finally and had a look around, her mouth hung open. They were standing in front of a heavenly waterfall and the waterfall was not dark because of the many florescent lights kept on every step of the waterfall and also all around the waterfall’s lake. A small shed decorated with white and red combination material with a place to lie comfortably. Luminous light wires spread across the trees made the place look ethereal. Saying that Ananya was shocked would be an understatement!

She looked at Kabir speechless, making him smile widely, “Saare lights waterproof hai… kyunki main chahta tha ki baarish ho…” Ananya literally jumped into his arms taking him into a bone crashing hug, giving him butterfly kisses all over his face, tears of happiness streaming down her cheeks.

“Tum ro kyun rahi ho?” Kabir asked gently wiping her tears.

She looked at him with sheer affection, “Aap ne mere liye itna sab kuch… kya main yeh deserve bhi kar…” and Kabir did not let her complete her sentence, placing a finger on her lips, nodding negatively.

“Nahi Ananya… yeh toh bahot kam yeh… tum sirf itna nahi… isse bahot bahot zyada deserve karti ho… tumhe pata nahi hai… meri life mein aake tumne mere liye kya kiya hai… main sirf zinda tha..jee nahi raha tha…tumhare aane se maine jeena shuru kiya… mere saare khaamiyon ko accept karke tumne mujhe apne life mein sabse important jagah di hai.. to be your better half… tumne mere liye itna kiya hai…uske mukaable yeh sab toh kuch bhi nahi hai… aur main vaada karta hoon ki zindagi bhar tumse itna pyaar karunga…”he told her softly, taking her into another embrace, kissing her hair.

Slowly Ananya broke the hug and moved around touching the flowers and having a good look around with a smile on her face, as Kabir stood looking at her adoringly.

Ananya turned around, looked at Kabir and blushed deeply and Kabir gulped knowing something was on her mind. He saw Ananya take off her heels and step into the lake of the waterfall. When she reached the middle of the lake, she pointed at Kabir then gestured from her finger asking him to come to her. For the first time Kabir blushed, as if being wet from the rain was not attractive enough that now she was standing in the middle to the pool looking so damn sizzling and to top that she actually had the guts to call him to join her so seductively, this girl really didn’t know she was waking the lion in him. If this lion woke up the only passion would flow across, breaking all barriers and he would love her till the end of earth. He slowly took of his jacket and shoes and walked towards the pool slowly, looking straight into her eyes. Ananya’s breath hitched, Kabir was looking a sexy Greek God right now and his intense gaze on her as he stepped into the pool and came closer wasn’t helping her either.

He came and stood right in front of her, their faces merely a few inches apart, both were completely drenched not only by the rain and the water in the pool but drenched in each other’s love, drenched in passion, drenched in desire. It was as if the line “Tip tip barsa paani, paani ne aag lagayi…” was made exceptionally for them because right now standing in the middle of the lake, under the heavy rain, both were burning, the sparks due to the proximity and their intense eye-lock were flying really high. Suddenly Kabir pulled Ananya with full force right onto his chest, making her gasp and that gave him her the chance to enter her mouth and kiss her deeply. Ananya held his shirt and pulled him even closer, not leaving even one centimeter gap between them.

He picked her up in his arms without breaking the kiss and walked to the waterfall part of the lake and placed her on the first step of the waterfall, breaking the kiss he pulled her hair ardently and gave open mouthed kisses on her neck, all Ananya could do was close her eyes and enjoy his over-powering passion. As soon as, Kabir broke apart for a nano-second to regain his breath, Ananya pulled him hard, making him lay on the step, coming on top of him, this time she took charge. Kissing his eyes, cheeks, nose, jaw-line, chin she teased him endlessly, till he couldn’t take it anymore and whispered her name breathlessly, “Ananya…” she smirked and took his lips in hers nibbling on his lower lip while his hand moved on her back opening the zipper of her dress. He made her lie beside him, so that her back was facing him and began kissing her bare back. She had the most gorgeous skin in the world and Kabir was cherishing every part of her skin with his kisses.

Ananya turned around and hugged him tightly. His passion was driving her crazy. She kissed his neck and nipped on his collar bone as her hands involuntarily opened the buttons of his shirt. She kissed every part of his chiseled chest, making Kabir close his eyes and breathe deeply. Her desire reflecting in the fervent kisses, he knew if she continued, he would lose sanity and they would cross the barrier. He pulled her up and smashed his lips with hers. Both under the waterfall, with the vivid flow of fresh water on them had ignited the passion to such a great level that both could see nothing but each other, want nothing but each other.

Breaking the kiss, Kabir pulled them up to a sitting position as both sat panting from their extremely intimate encounter. The rain had not stopped and Kabir knew if the rain continued, it would not be safe to drive thus he had a plan b ready for the date too. He picked up Ananya in his arms again and walked out of the pool. He walked to the shed and made Ananya stand up, he reached out behind the bed and pulled out a bag. He took out one white kurta which would be upto Ananya’s knee and a towel, and handed it to her pulling the curtains in the shed.

“Tum change karlo main bahar wait karta hoon…” he said and turned around to leave but Ananya held his arm and stopped him. “Aap bhi change karlo… yahin pe…uss corner mein… hum ek dusre ko nahi dekhenge..” she smiled.

Kabir was really touched by her implicit faith in him, he was upset with himself for letting passion overpower him so much that he almost crossed the line but her smile re-assured him that what happened was mutual and she was anything but upset with him.

He went to the other corner and both began changing, they didn’t know why but they felt there was something extremely intimate about changing clothes near each other, although both were not looking at each other, Kabir and Ananya could feel the atmosphere heating up. When both had changed, Ananya sat on the small bed Kabir had arranged with large comfy cushions and comforters. Kabir took out a box from the bag and put it on the bed as he sat beside Ananya. He opened the box and Ananya looked at him shocked, the box had sandwiches and two bottles of hot chocolate, some fruits, snacks and water.

“Aap ne yeh sab bhi arrange kiya tha?” she asked him, her voice displaying surprise.

He smiled a bit looking down, not meeting her gaze, “Haan who actually plan tha thora sa romance in the rain aur phir yahan par baith kar ek dusre ke saath waqt bitana. I'm sorry main hadh se thora aage…”

“Yeh aap kya keh rahe hain,” she said cupping his face, “Aapne kuch galat nahi kiya.. balki jo kuch bhi hua main use khush hoon… hum pyaar karte hain ek dusre se…” she looked at him affectionately and he hugged her emotionally.

After a while both sat down gulping down the hot chocolate as they shivered with the cool wind blowing on their already cold body from being wet for so long and they hungrily ate the sandwiches laughing, the romance had surely made them famished.

After eating both lay down in each other’s arms, playing with each other’s fingers, entwining them and talking about their present and their future…together… slowly sleep engulfing the two beautiful souls, who slept with contentment crystal clear on their faces, displaying the happiness of being together.

KaYa OS: A Happily Ever After!

 KaYa OS: A Happily Ever After!

A luxurious apartment was located in the beautiful and happening part of New Your City, United States. The apartment had a beautiful view of the George Washington Bridge as the lights of the very much awake city enlightened the French windows of the living room, it was a dream apartment, white in color it contained anything and everything anyone could have ever asked for. A posh living room with a home theatre system and all the modern furniture, a humble and sophisticated kitchen and three extremely large bedrooms each customized with elegance and class. While two rooms were set aside to be guest rooms, the third room belonged to the very much in love couple who were fast asleep right now cuddled into each other’s arms.

Kabir and Ananya had been married for almost a year and half now. Both of them had gained popularity when they began working as a team, cracking all difficult cases and after refusing many offers they had finally received their dream offer to work in Al Jazeera, Kabir had received the position of an editor in chief and Ananya received the position of a senior reporter who reported directly to Kabir. After Ananya’s mother had accepted their relationship they both promised to get married once they achieved their career goal and as soon as they signed a contract with Al Jazeera they tied the knot. Kabir insisted Ananya’s mom to shift with them to US but she had refused laughing that what would she do there and here she wanted to be in the house where Ananya’s dad’s memories remained, they had to agree reluctantly but they took a promise that Ananya’s mother and Armaan would come to US every year to spend the holidays with them and Anita had gladly agreed.

After tying the knot, Kabir and Ananya migrated to USA and began working for Al Jazeera and soon they had received this beautiful luxurious apartment and they were practically living their dream and the many photo frames hung on the walls of the living room with beautiful clicks of Kabir and Ananya laughing, Kabir having picked up Ananya on his back, Anita, Armaan with Kabir and Ananya spending their first anniversary together, the entire family playing in snow celebrating Christmas together, wedding pictures and a lot more photos present were the evidence of all the lovely moments of Kaya’s togetherness and beautiful life.

Right now it was 3.00am in the morning and Kabir and Ananya were fast asleep, suddenly Ananya’s phone rang much to her annoyance, she reached and turned on the light yellowish slightly dim table lamp, then reached the other side table on Kabir’s side leaning on him. She was annoyed for a moment only but she knew who exactly called her at that hour; Ananya smiled and answered the phone in half sleepy state.

“Good morning Ma…”she said in her husky sleepy voice adjusting her pillow and settling to a half sitting position, “Kaisi ho aap? Lunch karlia aapne?”

“Main theek hoon beta… Aur haan bas abhi khaya… tera mann-pasand kadhi chawal banaya tha aaj…” she replied smiling.

“Sach! Yeh toh cheating hai ma… Aap mere bina meri favorite dishes kha rahi ho…” Ananya cutely complained.

“Areh beta… main wahan aaungi ya tum log yahan aana toh sab teri favorite dishes banaungi pakka!” she promised.

Ananya giggled, “Theek hai!” she replied while looking at Kabir who stirred in his sleep, looking as gorgeous as mankind could in his plain crisp white t-shirt, she tried to get up and go to the living room so that she does not disturb his sleep, only to be pulled back by him as he snuggled closer. She ruffled his hair and he smiled eyes still closed.

“Kabir kahan hai?” Ananya heard her mom ask.

“So rahein hai…” she replied smiling as she traced his hairline lightly. She heard her mom gasp, “Dhat teri ki! Main phir bhool gayi… wahan toh…”

“Subah ke teen baje hain…” Ananya completed her mom’s sentence, smiling at her mom’s forgetfulness.  

If anyone would get a call this late at night, they would be shell shocked and so was Ananya but one and half year ago when her mom had called for the first time at around 3:00am, both Ananya and Kabir had jumped out of bed panicking as they answered the call thinking it was an emergency and something had happened to someone in India only to realize that Anita had called casually as it was daytime in India, the 9 hours’ time difference was oblivious to her, however, Kabir had assured her that she could call anytime that she felt like talking to Ananya, even in the middle of the night. Ever since, it had become a routine, once a week Anita would call Ananya at 3:00am and both Kabir and Ananya were gladly accustomed to that routine. Ananya was more than happy to have such an understanding husband who knew she missed her mother a lot, so he had asked her never to hesitate to call her mother or receiving her call as he didn’t mind, Ananya’s peace of mind and contentment was more important than his sleep for him.

“Good morning Ma…” Kabir said in an extremely sleepy voice as he began waking up slowly.

Anita nodded her head, giving herself a facepalm, “I'm sorry beta. Meri wajah se tumhari neend kharaab ho gayi…Aur Ananya agar Kabir so raha that oh beta tu wahan se uth kar chali jati… dekh ab use disturb kardia na humne…”she scolded Ananya, worriedly.

Ananya giggled as Kabir pulled her even closer when her mom said she should have gotten up and left the room, “Ma main toh jaa hi rahi thi par inhone jane hi nahi diya….neend mein bhi mujhe khud se door nahi hone dete…”she told her mother, earning a wide eyed amazed expression from Kabir that she had actually told her mom the truth.

Embarrassed Kabir told her mom, “Nahi ma wo… actually… abhi zyada thand pad rahi hai na isilye…” while Ananya laughed at his lame excuse and Anita blushed at her kids romance! As a punishment for telling her mother the truth Kabir took Ananya’s lips in his for a brief moment kissing her passionately making her moan loudly, “Kya hua beta?” Anita asked concerned, and Kabir gave Ananya a “Take that! Now tell the truth!” look to her in victory while Ananya looked angrily at him slapping his shoulder lightly, “Kuch nahi ma!” she quickly replied, “Machar ne kaat liya…” she showed her tongue to Kabir, while he looked shocked and pretended to be annoyed, making Ananya pull his cheeks.

By now both of them were fully awake and lay comfortably as Ananya continued speaking, “Ronnie kaisa hai ma?” Ananya asked entwining her hand with Kabir’s. “Wo bahot acha hai beta…” she replied gladly. “Aur Richa, aur Rinnie?” she asked as Kabir kissed her palm. Her mother replied, “Richa bhi bilkul theek hai. Rinnie ab doh saal ki hogayi hai aur aur zyada cute ho gayi hai… Ronnie aur Richa ki duniya hai wo… Dono uske bina reh hi nahi sakte…” her mother laughed, “Acha hua tha ki dono ne shaadi karke  humare pados mein apartment le liya tha… unki wajah se mera bhi waqt khushi khushi guzar jata hai…” Ananya listened to her mother with a smile as Kabir came slightly on top of her and buried his face in the crook of her neck, placing small kisses on her collar bone. Closing her eyes with pleasure, Ananya buried her hand in the sea of his hair. Kabir is such a tease, she thought, although she loved every bit of his attention. This man never failed to surprise her, everytime that her mother called instead of trying to sleep he would wake up and romance her or simply sit with her while she talked. He never left any chance to show his affection for her, be it physically or emotionally. Ananya smiled as Kabir’s hand travelled under her white top and he caressed her stomach while nuzzling her neck. He was equally attracted to her as much as he was the first time her met her. He was a hopeless lover, when it came to Ananya he could give up anything just to love her and be loved back by her.

“Rinnie ne baat karna shuru kia?” Ananya asked happily, she was really fond of Ronnie and Richa’s daughter Rinnie.

They had gotten married two years ago and purchased an apartment right next to Ananya’s house. In just a few weeks, Richa had given the good news that she was pregnant. Six months after their marriage, Kabir and Ananya tied the knot and had shifted to US but Kabir had made sure that he let Ananya come and support Richa in her delivery moth and he too had come one week before to morally support Ronnie who kept having nervous breakdowns on how he will be a good father. Eventually, Richa had realized all the goodness in Kabir and had apologized to Kabir and Ananya for being so typical and judgmental about Kabir earlier, she had finally admitted that a man being a divorcee does not mean he is a womanizer or selfish. Richa finally delivered a beautiful baby girl whom they named from the mixture of their name “Ri” from Richa and “nnie” from Ronnie. Apart from the parents one more person was happier and that was Ananya’s mother because now she could babysit Rinnie and that way she would spend her time happily and without constantly missing Ananya.

“Haan haan… bahut smart hai… kamsekam chaar nursery rhymes seekh liye hai usne…” Anita gladly informed her, “Aur jisse pehle tu pooche, Armaan bhi bilkul theek hai, college mein bhi mann lagaane laga hai…”

“Yeh toh bahut achi baat hai… mera chota bhai ab dheere dheere badaa hone laga hai…” Ananya smiled. Kabir continued his sweet assault kissing her eyes, nose, cheeks, lips and neck giving her a hard time trying to concentrate on the conversation, Ananya’s mother continued talking about Afrmaan when finally Ananya gave up and pushed Kabir, she had had enough, she came on top of him and kissed him eagerly with full passion, he was being such a tease and finally she had to have things the way she wanted and that was with full on passion, his sweet torture was too much for her to bear. After a while they both lay panting and Ananya’s attention went back to her conversation. Her mom had finished telling her all about how annoying the other neighboring woman was who never even said hello properly having such a big ego and one day she suddenly turned sweet and began talking to her nicely because that woman needed one cup sugar, her mom’s cute banter made Ananya giggle.

Suddenly Anita’s voice changed from joyfulness to concern, “Beta….” She paused for a while, “… tu khush toh hai na?” she asked hesitantly.

“Ma!” Ananya said now annoyed, this was one question that she hated but her mother would ask her every single time she called, “Main bahot bahot bahot zyada khush hoon… Kabir mujhe khud se zyada pyaar karte hain…”

Kabir looked up now, he knew that she had asked “the” question again, this time he decided he would interrupt, he wanted to assure her mother that he would love her daughter always, no matter what. He silently gestured Ananya to put the phone on speaker, and he heard Anita say, “Pata hai beta. Par ma hoon na… Tum dono saath ho na? Khush ho na saath?” she asked unaware that Kabir too heard her question and this time Kabir replied.

“Ma…” Kabir bearly whispered, Ananya could feel how deeply hurt he was, while Anita’s visible gasp displayed how shocked she was that Kabir had heard her, Kabir continued, “Ma mujhe pata hai… Aapko apni beti ki fikr hai..main aapko galat nahi samjhunga… apko yeh dar hai ki jis aadmi ki pehli shaadi nahi chal payi…uski kya doosri shaadi kaamyaab hogi… aapko dar hai ki kahin mera pyaar Ananya ke liye kam na ho jaye… wo mere saath anjaan desh mein akele hai..mere bharose hai…” he paused for a while, he was trying his best not to sound broken, Ananya cupped his face gesturing that he didn’t have to justify himself but he just kissed her hand and spoke again, “Magar main…mere liye… Ananya meri duniya hai…usi pe meri zindagi shuru hoti hai aur usi pe khatam…” he breathed hard and smiled, “Aur pata hai…aapne ise itne achi parvarish di hai ki yeh mujhpar aankh band karke vishwas karti hai…meri saari khaamiyon ko samajhti hai aur mujhe sahi raah dikhati hai… mein Ananya ke bina nahi reh sakta… uske bina meri zindagi khaali hai…main aapse vaada karta hoon main Ananya se zindagi bhar isi tarah beintehaa pyaar karunga…waada…pakka waada…”he said, his voice breaking as a sob escaped his lips, Ananya quickly wrapped her arms around him and kissed his hair, while he sobbed for a while burying his face in her chest, Ananya too cried with him and on the phone they could hear that Anita was trying to suppress her sniffles.

Ananya told her mom, “Ma aap roiye mat… pata hai.. Kabir khamakhaa meri taarif kar rahe hain… balki sach toh yeh hai ki main chahe jitna bhi inke sar pe chadh jaun, inpe gussa karun, inhe pareshaan karun yeh kabhi mujhse pyaar karna band nahi karte… meri har nadaani pe mujhe pyaar se bitha kar samjhate hain… hare k subah mujhe itne pyaar bhare nazron se dekhte hain jaise pehli baar dekha tha… inki aankhon mein who pyaar kam hi nahi hua…ulta aur zyada badhta jar aha hai…” she gulped hard, drinking her cries, “Mere liye ye apna sab kuch daaw par laga sakte hain..aur pata hai.. inpe itni saari ladkiyan marti hain par who mujhse jalti hai…isliye nahi ki main inki patni hoon par isliye kyuki inki nazar mujhse hat-thi hi nahi…Mujhe duniya mein shaayad hi itna pyaar koi de pata…” Kabir looked at Ananya all touched by her beautiful words.

Ananya continued, “Ek naakamyab rishte ki wajah se aap inke aaj tak ke saare achi baton ko kaise bhool jaati ho ma? Humesha divorce mein aadmi ki galati nahi hoti… Aur aap batao kya guarantee hai ki agar aap meri shaadi kisi single ladke se karti toh who mujhe pyaar karta aur satata nahi? Koi aur hasi khushi se mere saare nakhre sehta? Mujhe khana banana nahi aata par aaj tak kabhi Kabir ne mujhe na iss baat ko lekar daanta aur na taana maara…roz mujhe apni haathon se khana bana kar khilaatein hain…”

‘I'm sorry beta… I'm so…sorry…” Anita cried, “Pata nahi mujhe kya ho jata hai…tu sach keh rahi hai… Kabir se zyada pyaar karne wala tujhe koi nahi milta… main vaada karti hoon ki yeh aakhri baar tha jab maine Kabir par shaq kiya… mujhe maaf kardena beta…”she apologized, finally her sobs subsiding.

“Please ma aap sorry mat boliye…” Kabir told her earnestly, “Aap badi hai.. aap ka haq hai…”

“Nahi beta…” Anita had a kind of new trust in her heart that came across through her voice, “Mujhe ya kisi aur ko koi haq nahi hai tumhare upar ungli uthane ka…yeh humare society ki soch hai jo hume badalni chahiye…tum kitna kuch sehte aaye ho…” she told him lovingly.

Finally, they had ended the insecurity of Ananya’s mother. After a few minutes all that could be heard was laughter as Kabir and Ananya told Anita about their hilarious news reporting events while they were in India, how Kabir had become Bhadresh Kutty for Ananya and Anita was even more pleased to hear how he has been protecting her all along, even by manipulating Manav and going for the baaghi interview with her. Opening up these stories in front of Anita had allowed her to understand the unconditional love Kabir has for Ananya. At around 6:00am when they finally hung up, Kabir stretched and Ananya yawned, both looked at each other and cuddled together.

“I love you!” both ended up saying together and burst out laughing, as they slowly went back to sleep, secure in each other’s arms, feeling the warmth of love in the cold and foggy morning, in their beautiful home full of love, as the sun began peeking out a bit from the clouds hovering over the George Washington bridge, shining its light through the French windows of their living room, blessing the beautiful couple sleeping peacefully, snuggled together.

"Pure is the love, love that is unconditional, love that is selfless, love that lasts forever and pure are the souls that know how to love."

KaYa OS: Happy Holi!

KaYa OS: Happy Holi!

 

“Love is like fire, a fire that rages through the hearts of two people burning their souls in the craving for each other, craving for togetherness.”

“Kabir, where are you?” asked Khalid desperately, “I told you this is not only a simple Holi party but an attempt to impress foreign investors to our culture so that we can expand KKN to foreign countries.”

“Yes Khalid, I know! It’s just that I got caught up with new leads. I will be there soon don’t worry!” Kabir reassured him, keeping the phone.

Khalid had organized a Holi party at his house; he believed it would be an incentive for his staff who worked really hard and also an opportunity to attract more foreign investors to expand their business. He knew foreigners loved the Indian culture, a culture so uniting and colorful. The uniqueness and authenticity was already evident but Khalid needed Kabir to elaborate more on that, but Kabir was late! Khalid looked around and saw Malvika; he could see she was pretending to improve after she was exposed by Ananya and friends but somehow he knew that she was upto something, the cruel determined face that she had. Khalid shook his head in shame, this woman was a complete shame to his channel.

Kabir walked in and Khalid laughed, looking at all the girls reactions to the hunk in a simple white kurta-pajama and he could tell the girls were ready to lay their hearts in his feet but he saw Kabir’s eyes searching. Searching for a special someone! Khalid chuckled and mumbled, “Love! Love! Love! Who knew love could make this serious and professional editor-in-chief a person full of emotions!”

“Hi Khalid!” Kabir walked upto him and smiled.

Khalid laughed and said in his usual flirty tone, “Oh Kabir! Aaj hi nahi Happy Holi kehna hai…” saying that they hugged and Kabir went with him to greet the foreign investors. They seemed quite impressed by Kabir, suddenly his phone rang. It was Laxman, he wanted to give information about the lead Kabir was working on but due to the noise and all songs being played loudly, he couldn’t hear anything so he excused himself and walked into Khalid’s posh house. He walked through the corridors to find a secluded place to talk and as he passed by one open room, one second later he returned to re-look at what he had seen while passing by. Kabir was left stumped, rooted to his spot. He saw Ananya standing in front of the mirror trying to tie the bandhan of her blouse, while her sari was scattered on the floor. It hit him, she was in a petticoat and blouse only!

Kabir was left stumped by the strikingly gorgeous beauty in front of him! His phone slipped from his hand, and the noise made Ananya look up in surprise! She gasped when she saw Kabir staring at her in amazement. Hearing her gasp, Kabir came back to reality, picking up his phone he told Laxman he would call later as he something more important to do and saying that came  in and closed the door, locking it securely.

He walked up to Ananya slowly, he could see her getting shy and his heart was beating fast. As he stood in front of her she turned around, “Aap yeh baandh denge please? Bahot der se koshish kar rahi hoon…”

Kabir removed her hair and placed it on one side, in the process caressing her back, making Ananya closing her eyes, breathing hard. She was not a usual shy type girl but right now, in this situation she felt extremely nervous. Kabir slowly took the dori from her hands and tied it. Having tied the dori, he traced from her neck to her waistline and Ananya shivered. He held her by the shoulders and pulled her closer, and whispered in her ears, “Yakeen hi nahi hota… Ki tum meri ho…” Ananya blushed and moved away getting shy from the proximity.

A sudden realization dawned on Kabir, “Ananya why are you in such a state here? And why didn’t you lock the door? What if someone else had seen you like this? You should have worn the sari from home!” he was angry but she understood it was because he was scared about her, and yes looking at her disheveled state he was bound to confused and angry.

She turned around and pouted at him cutely complaining, “Main sari ghar se hi pehen kar aayi thi! Magar wo Malvika she stepped on my sari and it almost opened, so I came running to find an empty room to avoid any embarrassment, and while running I bumped into a vase and my dori opened…. I got so scared that I absolutely forgot to close the door! I am sorry…” she concluded apologetically.

Kabir looked at her sensitively, she always had to go through so much because of Malvika, yet she stood strong every single time. Even today, she wasn’t cursing Malvika or anything; it seemed Ananya had already forgiven her. He smiled as he saw her biting her finger, while she looked at the sari in her other, trying to figure out from where to wear it. Cuteness overloaded, his mind told him!

“Ab main kya karungi?” she looked at him horrified, “Mujhe toh sari pehenni aati hi nahi! Ghar pe ma ne pehna diya tha par yahan? Richa ka phone bhi nahi lag raha hai aur usne kaha tha ki wo aaj late aayegi… ab kya?” she whined.

Kabir hesitated but spoke up, “Uh main pehnaun?”

“Kya? Aap? Aap ko sari pehenni aati hai??” she looked at him wide eyed.

“Haan wo ek baar sting operation ka disguise tha.” He told her, a bit embarrassed and he was right the next instant she began laughing. “Ananya agar tum hasogi toh main jar aha hoon..” he said annoyed and turned around to leave but she caught his hand and smiled turning him around, “Acha sorry!” she held her ears.

Kabir smiled and picked up her sari from the ground, finding the end of her sari, he brought it to her navel and tucked it in. Ananya gasped loudly and her eyes widened, making Kabir realize what he had done. He stood there frozen, his hand still tucked in her petticoat touching waistline. He gulped hard, “ I am sorry… Did i?”

Her eyes shot up, “No! it’s okay it’s my waistline… thankfully…” she told him in a low voice looking away, blushing.

“I am so sorry!” Kabir apologized again, “ I didn’t realize what I was doing.” He told Ananya earnestly.

She looked at him and smiled, then took a step forward, “It’s okay Kabir! Nothing as such happened for which you have to apologize. Plus you have the right to touch me. Aap ka haq hai…” she nodded her head asking him if he was assured and Kabir just smiled in response, too spellbound by her complete faith in him.

Kabir went down on his knees and began tucking the sari around her waist, asking her to keep turning slowly. After completing one circle, Ananya was standing really close to Kabir, her navel in line with his lips. Kabir looked at her, she was still blushing. He held her waist softly and placed a kiss on her bellybutton, Ananya grasped his shoulder tightly, eyes closed her head shot up at this soft yet very intimate contact with him, and he began placing butterfly kisses all over stomach. Ananya buried her other hand in his hair, breathing hard at his sweet assault. Kabir looked up at her with tender eyes, she was divine. So pure and heavenly.

Kabir got up slowly while Ananya opened her eyes and looked at him lovingly, he held her sari and took four steps back, never breaking their beautiful eyes contact. He began plating her sari and walked slowly toward her with each plait he created. After completing the plaits, he looked at her silently as if asking for her permission. Ananya looked at him in awe, he was such a gentleman! What had she done to deserve, such a pure guy like him? she thought. Smiling, she nodded her head in agreement and he tucked it in gently, all the while their eyes gazing into each other’s lovingly.

 He created her pallu and pinned it to her blouse, having done so, he two steps back and had a good look at her, being satisfied with his work, he walked upto her and kissed her forehead, “Aisa lag raha hai jaise seedhe aasmaan se utar kar aayi ho Ananya… Mujhe marne ka irada hai kya?” he complimented her genuinely.

“Haan… Irada toh hai…” Ananya said winding her arms around his neck, as his hands automatically wind around her waist, “Par…” she said coming closer to his lips, making him close his eyes, “Aapko rang lagaane ka…” and she ran away laughing, Kabir opened his eyes only to find Ananya standing outside the room, showing her tongue to him, she ran away leaving a smiling Kabir behind.

Ananya joined Ronnie and Richa while Kabir walked back to Khalid after speaking to Laxman. The Holi party began in full swing and everyone was enjoying. Ananya looked at Kabir, he was busy talking to the foreign clients, and he is so damn hot! like God sent him to conquer the entire female fraternity, thought Ananya. She still didn’t believe this belonged to her and loved her more than he loved himself! She looked around and saw admiring eyes, checking Kabir out and she felt jealous.

Ananya instantly texted him, “Enjoying all the female attention sir?”

“Matlab?” came the reply.

“Look around!” she texted back and saw him have a look around.

A few seconds later her phone beeped, “I can only see guys admiring the woman I love, least do they know she is mine!” and Ananya had to smile, realization dawned onto her that he was equally jealous, just like she noticed girls around him reacting to Kabir and didn’t notice guys checking her out, similarly Kabir didn’t notice his female fan following but noticed the guys who checked her out, he was so sweet!

Everyone was playing colors, while Kabir stood aside and watched, Malvika walked upto him and tried to apply color on his cheek when Kabir stopped her, he nodded negatively, “Nahi Malvika! Thank you!” he told her, Malvika tried to argue but he told her to excuse him, Ananya smiled looking at this. Although they were standing far away, she could still tell Kabir was irritated with Malvika.

Kabir looked at Ananya. She was having a soft drink while she laughed with Ronnie and Rica. He saw Manav approach her and asked her if he could apply color on her, Ananya refused politely and he went away sulking, Ananya sighed in relief while her friends laughed at Manav. After a few minutes, Ronnie and Richa were dragged by Baby and Trisha to play colors. They refused but Trisha had insisted saying Khalid sir had given her a special invitation to be able to enjoy with them the last time, Ananya promised to join them in a while.

“Kabir tum nahi khel rahe?” asked Khalid approaching Kabir with a soft drink in his hand for both of them.

“Thanks.” Kabir thanked him for the soft drink, “ Nahi abhi mera mann nahi hai…” he said sipping the drink. He looked at Ananya again, only to find her missing from where she was standing, he assumed she went to play with her friends. A pang of disappointment came to his heart, he wanted them to be the first to apply the colors to each other as this was their first Holi together!

Khalid excused himself and Kabir stood alone for a while.

“Kabir sir, aapko Khalid sir ne andar bulaya hai…” the peon told him.

“Abhi toh baat kit hi, ab kya kaam aagaya?” asked Kabir.

“Pata nahi…par wo bula rahe hain…” he told Kabir.

“Theek hai.” Kabir walked inside the house, he was passing through the corridor when suddenly he was pulled inside a room and pinned to the wall.

“Hi Handsome!” Ananya smiled mischievously, raising her eyebrows.

Kabir sighed, “Kya kar rahi ho… dara diya mujhe…” he smiled leaning his head on the wall, sighing in relief.

Ananya brought her hand forward and he saw handful of pink color, “Humari pehli Holi hai. Toh ek dusre ko rang pehla rang lagane ka haq hai humara…” she told him excitedly, and he smiled, she was such a sweetheart!

They both took a bit of color and applied it lightly to each other’s left cheek. Kabir kissed her right cheek and said, “Happy Holi, Ananya. may spend every Holi together.” Ananya kissed his right cheek too, “Happy Holi Kabir. Hum dono humesha ek dusre isi tarah beintehaa pyaar karein…”

“Waada!” promised Kabir.

“Waada!” reciprocated Ananya.

Ananya insisted Kabir to play Holi with the staff, as it was one day no decorum needed to be maintained. He gladly agreed, she was successfully breaking all the walls that he had created around himself. Everyone was enjoying themselves dancing to Balam Pickari. Everyone and most of all Ananya was shocked to see Kabir dancing to the beat so perfectly, he looked delicious half drenched with colors as he danced. Colors were flying high and so were the sparks between Kabir and Ananya, Malvika fumed looking at them dancing together happily. She had a plan on her mind and she smirked as she mixed some bhang with the thandai. She gave it to random people to go and offer it to Kabir and Ananya.

“Kabir nashe mein hoga toh main usko kamrein mein lekar jaungi aur pretend karungi ki humare beech kuch hua hai, he will be compelled to be with me. Aur agar Ananya nashe mein hogi toh Kabir ko bachaegi kaise…” she smirked, thinking of her plan.

As per Malvika’s plan both Kabir and Ananya were drunk, she dragged Kabir somehow to an empty room saying that Khalid was calling them. Upon reaching the room Kabir collapsed on the bed and Malvika smirked. Just then Trisha was passing by and she felt something was wrong when she saw Kabir completely unconscious and Malvika smiling evilly standing beside the bed then Trisha saw Ananya stumbling while walking. Trisha’s mind clouded with doubt, neither Kabir nor Ananya had bhang then how come both of them were drunk and she understood instantly it was Malvika’s plan. She quickly went in the room, “Malvika!” Trisha shouted.

“Kya hua??” Malvika asked shocked!

“Wo Manav sir aapko bula rahe hain. Wo ro rahe hain… Please jaldi chaliye…” she used Manav’s name because he was actually doing drama after getting drunk but he hadn’t called for Malvika.

“Abhi?” she didn’t want to let this golden opportunity slip from her hand.

“Haan jaldi chaliye please warna humare channel ki reputation kharaab ho jayegi…” Trisha said pulling her hand dragging her, “Aap ko toh pata hai kitne saare foreign investors aaye huwe hain…” Trisha sent Malvika out of the house and ran to Ananya, she thought for a few moments what to do then an idea struck her mind!

She took Ananya and made her lie on the other side of the bed in which Kabir was already sleping. Then before moving out she locked the door to refain Malvika or anyone else from entering and seeing them like this. After that Trisha ran to Khalid, “Sir, lagta hai Malvika ne Kabir sir aur Ananya ko bhang pila diya hai.. Both are unconscious… Aur jis room mein Malvika Kabir sir ko lekar gayi thi maine wahin par Ananya ko bhi sula kar room lock kardia hai… Please aaj wo room mat kholiyega.. log unhe saath dekhenge toh galat samjhenge…. Unka naam bewajah kharaab…. Let them be your guests till they rehain consciousness sir… Please!” Trisha pleaded in front of Khalid.

“Ofcourse Trisha don’t worry!” Khalid re-assured her that nothing will happen.

Ananya was still trying to get up with a heavy head, when she saw Kabir lying beside her. She looked at him affectionately; he looked so cute while sleeping. She pulled his cheeks and he stirred, Ananya pulled the blankets over them and slept snuggling into him while as if he acknowledging her presence wrapped his arm around her.

As the sun rays hit their eyes, both Kabir and Ananya opened their eyes. “Ouch!” Ananya said her head feeling very heavy. They both looked at their surroundings and found that they were in each other’s arms and in an unfamiliar place.

“Hum yahan? Aise?” Ananya asked Kabir skeptically, finding it difficult to get up. Kabir held his head, trying to remember what had happened, but he couldn’t, he could just feel his head being heavy, “Pata nahi Ananya…”

Just then Ananya’s phone rang, it was Trisha. She answered and Trisha asked her to put the phone on speaker. Upon doing that she narrated the entire story to Kabir and Ananya, and they both were extremely thankful to Trisha for saving them. He had done it again; she had become their savior for the second time. Their personal cupid! They couldn’t be thankful enough and Kabir promised he would throw another dinner party for her soon, earning a giggle from Trisha who said all was cool and thanked him for the kind gesture again.

Ananya and Kabir laid down again, sighing in relief that they had been saved from Malvika again. A thought struck in Ananya’s mind, “Waise humne kal nashe mein kuch…” she left the sentence hanging not sure how to complete it.

“Nahi Ananya! jaise Trisha ne bataya main already behosh ho chukka tha…” he re-assured her, then a question popped up in his mind, Kabir turned around and was slightly on top of Ananya, “Agar kuch hua hota toh aaj tum mujhse gussa hoti aur regret karti?” he asked softly yet his voice vulnerable.

“Nahi…” she said cupping his cheek with her right hand, smiling she told him, “Par haan thora disappoint hoti… kyunki main chahti hoon ki jab hum apne pyaar ko agle kadam mein leke jayein tab hum pure hosh-o-hawaaz mein ho… taaki humara first time special ho… aur hume yaad rahe zindagi bhar… yun nashe ke halat mein nahi…” she pouted.

Kabir was touched by her innocence, “Aur main bhi chahta hoon ki humara agla kadam pure rasmon riwazon ke baad ho…. Humare zindagi ka sabse special moment!” he told her sincerely kissing her forehead.

“I love you!” said Ananya, hugging him.

“I love you too!” he said feeling on top of the world!

With that they walked down together to thank Khalid for his hospitality.
