A Date With The Mafia
Mrinal's sleep broke due to some movements. Does house move? Absolutely not. She opened her eyes only to find that she was not inside their room. She looked around the room and understood it was the new private jet which he brought few days back. She was the one who choose it. But why she is here?
‘Ohho Mira he told you that you are going with him to America for business.' She reminded herself.
She was about to get up when the door was opened by Abhay who came with breakfast.
‘You are up Baby.'
‘Hmm but how am I here?'
‘I again kidnapped you.' He said as he sat beside her.
‘Very funny my dear husband.' She made a pout.
‘You are so cute my Baby. We are going America.'
‘For business I know you told me last night.'
It was a pure lie. He was taking her there for date.
‘But you could have wake me up. So many people saw us like that even Choti ma and Chote papa.' She got ready in a simple yet elegant salwar suit for the journey but she suddenly felt sleepy and slept on the cough in their room.
‘It doesn't matter. You look like a Baby in my arms. Cute, little and all mine. And Choti ma and Chote papa already saw you in my arms so many times. Now go, brush your teeth. I am waiting for you only.'
He was the one who carried her when she was asleep.
‘Choti ma see na. Tell me do I need to change something.' Abhay asked his choti ma nth time showing the decoration of the rooftop of his penthouse in his private island in Florida.
‘Listen you, old man stop calling my wife. She is busy and now...' Vishal was cut off as Devika snatched the phone from Abhay.
‘Yes Abhi tell me what happened?' She asked with a warm smile. She was so happy for them. And here her husband is asking him not to call her why? Simple, he wants to have alone time with her.
‘Umm choti ma she will like na?'
‘Of course Abhi. You did with all your heart. She will love it. Now stop stressing yourself and get ready. Where is she?'
‘She is getting ready. Bye choti ma, take rest.'
‘Bye my baby boy. Enjoy your quality time.'
Abhay cut the call and went to get ready. He got freshened up. He got ready in a light-blue button-up with a white fitted-jeans, a brown sports coat, a watch, and leather shoes. He used his favourite colonge and fixed his hair. He was looking devilishly handsome. He came out of his room and went to the terrace of his pent house. He looked at the decoration hoping she would love it. Then he went down and reached the room where she was getting ready. He knocked on the door and heard ‘Abhi don't be impatient.'
It was Maria who was helping her for getting ready. He sighed at and stand by the door only to wait for her.
His wait was over after 5 minutes. Abhay couldn't take off his eyes from her. A simple white floral knee length dress was making her like a white fairy. He loves her in white. Her hair was open and a little bit of makeup was done by Maria.
‘Hmm' Maria cleared her throat to get some attention. Abhay looked at Maria when she cleared her throat for the 3rd time. Maria laughed loudly making Mrinal blush and Abhay rubbed his neck.
‘So tell me Mr. Singh Raizada who is better?'
‘Obviously it's you Maria aunt. Thank you so much.'
Maria was the one who stopped Abhay calling beauticians and hair stylists saying ‘Mira sweetheart likes everything simple. Don't call all those makeup artists. They will make her makeup cake. I will help her getting ready.'
That's why he only ordered the best designer of America to send her dress.
‘Ok ok now go and enjoy.'
Abhay took Mrinal's hand and took her to the rooftop.
‘Wonderful!!' This was the first word came out of her mouth looking at the decoration.
The fairy lights were making the beautiful architecture of the pent house more beautiful. She excitedly went near the big window pulling Abhay with herself.
‘Did you like it Baby?'
‘I loved it Abhi. Even this whole house is so pretty.'
Abhay hugged her from back.
‘You are looking heavenly Baby.' His husky voice made her shiver.
‘Thank..you. You look handsome Abhi.'
‘Awww!!' He kissed her cheek.
‘Now come with me.'
Mrinal sat on the chair Abhay pulled a chair for Mrinal and he also sat across her.
***********************
Abhay kissed her hand softly and asked ‘Will you dance with me beautiful?'
Mrinal nodded in yes and then said ‘But I don't know.' with a cute pout.
‘Baby I am here to teach you everything from kissing to dancing.' He said after pecking her pout making her blush. Indeed, he taught her how to kiss.
Abhay forwarded his hand which she gladly accepted. A soft music was playing behind.
Abhay placed his one hand around her waist while he put her one hand on his shoulder. He entangled his another hand with her free hand.
‘Follow me Baby.' He said and soon they started dancing with the music. It was their own world. oft music, fairy light and two souls with beating hearts so close. There was spark of love between them. As he twirled her she felt like it was all a dream. But it was not a dream. He touched her smooth back as she was wearing a cap sleeve heart cut out dress and inhaled her scent. She shivered at his mere touch but it made him only to hold her more tightly. Her soft body pressed against his hard chest. Again her heartbeat increased.
‘You look divine.' Abhay joined their foreheads as they stopped dancing.
‘I love you Baby. I love you a lot.'
‘I know Abhi. I love you too.'
Abhay kissed her temple and hugged her. This time the feeling was deeper. She hugged him back tighter. He kissed her lips as he broke the hug. She kissed him back making him proud of his teaching.
Abhay only broke the kiss to kiss her again. But this time he said ‘Open up' in between the kiss. His voice was calm, soft yet dominating. Mrinal shyly opened her mouth and he explored her mouth.
*******************
Mrinal looked at the table which was filled with so many dishes. But the unique part was every dish was garnished like it was made by world-class chef. And the taste was heavenly delicious.
She took the first bite of it and moaned in delight ‘It's heavenly tasty.' and then she felt she knows the taste of the food. It is familiar to her.
‘Abhi you made all this!!
He smiled at her words ‘Yes my Baby.'
‘You made all these dishes.'
‘Hmm. I can cook you know that na.'
‘I know but these much.'
‘It's not that much Baby.'
They completed the food with their light talks. After dinner they were sitting near the balcony of the rooftop. The view was amazing. The sky was full of stars and the moonlight on water of the Atlantic Ocean was making it more charming.
‘You know that all the dishes were so tasty and you garnished the food..'
‘like a master chef.' He completed her words making her smile.
‘Actually I love cooking but I don't get time for it.'
She felt bad for him. He struggled in his childhood after his parents' death and then he made his own empire. And now he is busy all the time. She still remembers how keenly he was talk listening to the teachers about the kids. Even one day she saw him how much tired he was but didn't sleep without completing his work.
‘Don't feel bad for me. I am happy with you Baby.'
‘I know Abhi.' She placed her hand on his chest. He caressed her back only to make her shiver but she felt good.
************************
Mira was combing her hairs when Abhay took the brush from her hand.
‘I will do it for you.'
Mrinal nodded her hand in yes. Abhay properly braided her hair.
‘You have beautiful hair Baby.'
‘Thank you.' She smiled at him.
* Her single smile lights up his dark world. *
Soon they settled on their bed. Mrinal came close to him and put her head on his chest.
She felt a kiss on her lips before drifting into her dreamland.
***************************
Mrinal was astonished knowing that there was no meeting to attend. Coming to America was purely for the date.
They stayed there for one week and came back as they have their own works.
Mrinal joined college on the same day. She missed the first half of the collage but went for the second half.
It was last class and she was still completing her assignment. She forgot about it. It was Isha who reminded her. She asked her to copy from her but she denied. At last she completed it. But when the teacher said that her assignment was done perfectly the whole class was stunned. She was absent for whole one week but still her assignment was totally perfect.
*************************
*3 months later*
It wasn't late night. It was 11 o'clock at night. Tomorrow is their 1st marriage anniversary. Mira was busy in her thoughts to make it memorable. She already had dinner due to Abhay's warning. She didn't like eating all alone. Devika and Vishal will come back tomorrow from their work. All the NGO's under Singh Raizada empire are taken care by them only.
She thought to heat up the food knowing Abhay will be here soon. But suddenly a call came from an unknown number. She didn't pick up the first 3 calls but then she picked up the fourth call as it was coming continuously.
And at the end of the call she fell on the floor. Tears rolled down from her eyes on her cheeks.
*Is it the end of their love story? *
*Is it end of their journey before they could start all over again? *
