Loving Someone Is Not Easy
Loving someone is not easy. It never was. Both the souls understood especially Mrinal. Abhay is cruel, very cruel. He is DEVIL. He never harmed Mrinal or any innocent. Still when he kills, he kills brutally. The way he shot more than 50 men all alone made her understand how dangerous he is. But she loves this man truly and she is proud of it. The man only does justice. His cruelty saves the innocent people.
Mrinal closed her eyes. Her pain is less now. Abhay was sitting beside her. She was resting her head on Abhay's lap. It's a new morning for them. What happened two days back is their past now.
Someone knocked on the door. Abhay opened the door using the switch. There was standing two girls who works under him and his wife's only friends.
‘Bhaiya how is Bhabi?'
‘She is weak Rima. Come inside both of you.'
Mrinal was sleeping but it wasn't deep sleep.
‘Sir I think we should come later.'
‘No it's her time to wake up. Moreover, she will be happy to see you two.'
‘Okay Sir we will waiting in the hall.'
They left and Abhay woke her up. Devika came inside to help her in the bathroom. Abhay went to get freshen up.
Mrinal somehow managed not to cry while Devika was helping her. Devika was very careful with her.
She opened the door and saw Abhay was waiting for them. He picked her up and made her sit on chair. Her breakfast was arranged in the table. And there was two persons waiting for her.
‘Rima! Isha! you people are here?' She was happy to see them here.
‘Why not? We missed you.' She got two light hugs from her friends. Mrinal warmly smiled at them ‘I missed you too.'
Then she ate her breakfast and then her medicines. Abhay gave privacy to these four ladies. They talked with Mrinal, making her laugh and smile. And after two hours they left as Mrinal needs more rest.
Abhay completed his few pending works and had his breakfast alone as Vishal was in the company.
Rima and Isha bid goodbye to their boss and bhaiya. Abhay went upstairs and Devika left after kissing her forehead.
Abhay came near her and asked ‘Did you enjoy with them?'
‘Yes Abhi.'
‘Want to go to the balcony?'
Someone knocked on the door before she could reply. Abhay opened the door using the switch.
‘It's Ma'am's dressing time Sir.' The nurses came inside. Mrinal's happy face fell. It will hurt her more.
She looked at her husband.
‘I will do that. Just bring all the things.' They nodded and arranged everything.
They left and Abhay started her dressing. She looked down as he removed her loose gown.
‘I won't hurt you.'
‘I know. I just feel shy.' She lowered her eyelashes.
‘Aw!! My baby.' He kissed her cheeks and did her dressings. He was too careful with her.
*Two days later*
Abhay came inside his bedroom but didn't find Mrinal. Even there is no nurse also.
‘Baby??!!' He called for her as he went inside.
‘Abhi…' came a weak voice from the bathroom. He hurriedly went inside.
There was she, standing in a bathrobe shivering in pain.
‘Baby what happened?' Abhay ran to her.
‘Oi je asole .. umm. Abhi..' (Umm it's that..)
‘Baby what happened? Where are your nurses?'
He was about to call for them Mrinal stopped him.
‘Abhi pe.. periods..' She looked down. She can't even move properly. He felt like to punch himself. She took the bullet which was for him and now her periods. She is in too much pain right now. He felt sad for her. He was responsible for her this condition. The bullet was for Abhay but Mrinal took it on her. Now she is badly injured and in between she got her periods.
He took her out of the bathroom. Abhay himself witnessed how badly it hurts Mrinal. She can't even move her body. Her legs hurt, her stomach aches, and those horrible cramps are very painful.
‘Abhi asole ummm I ..' (Abhi actually umm..)
‘Baby it's okay.'
‘Abhi I didn't use sanitary pad. I just removed my dirty cloths.'
‘It's okay I will bring everything. Just a minute Baby.'
‘Come fast please bedsheet will get ruined.' Abhay literally ran and brought everything for her.
He made her wear her sanitary pad along with her innerwear and then changed her cloths. Her pain is unbearable. She tried her best to stop her tears and whimpers. But when you are pain, your eyes will make it clear to your beloved ones.
He sat beside her. She was wearing a long loose gown which Abhay made her wear. He can't put hot bag on her stomach. It will get worse only. She took his hand and put it on her head.
‘Give me a message please.' She said in a weak yet happy voice.
Abhay smiled at her and messaged her head. Two nurses came and knocked. Abhay opened the door and said ‘Before going we could have call us.'
His voice was filled with anger. The nurses gulped down in fear but Abhay never misbehaves with women. ‘Next time be careful or I have to take some decision.' He warned them.
Mrinal was whimpering in pain. Abhay went back to her without waiting for her apology.
‘Ask a worker to bring food for her and hot chocolate.'
The nurse called through the intercom. Soon Devika came with a worker who was carrying the food trolley.
‘What happened Mira sweety?'
‘She got her periods. It's paining a lot.' His heart felt her pain. Devika's face became pale. She knows how much it hurts Mrinal. She caressed her hair and helped her to sit. She made her warm soup and gave her medicines.
The nurses felt that they have basically nothing to do. They felt guiltier for leaving her like these for some unimportant phone calls. It was their good luck Abhay didn't fire them knowing their poor condition. Abhay stays with her always. Devika herself helps her inside the bathroom, feeds her. Abhay gives her medicine and treats like a new born.
*In the noon*
Abhay did some work in his laptop. Vishal was handling everything with Robin. The nurses came as it was time for her dressing. She also needs to clean her body with sponge bath. Abhay opened the door using the switch. Just like every day they arranged everything and left.
Abhay did her dressings, gave her sponge bath, made her wear fresh sanitary pad and them made her wear her loose gown.
They had lunch together. Even the nurses adored the couple.
She licked her lips ‘Hot chocolate is yummy.'
Due to her mood swings she wanted to have hot chocolate just after lunch.
Abhay looked at her lips. He wanted to kiss her lips and taste it again and again. Her lips are his dessert, favourite one.
She went near him and whispered ‘You can kiss me. I am all yours.'
Abhay's eyes widened. His cheeks became tinted red knowing she understood his desires.
‘Aw!! The Indian Mafia King is blushing.' Mrinal looked at him in delight.
‘Baby you know I love your lips that's…'
His words were stopped as Mrinal pressed her lips on his lips. For the first time she initiated a kiss. The kiss was pure just like their true love. Abhay held her head softly as she was weak and dominated the kiss.
‘And you love me a lot.' She said as they broke the kiss.
*At late night*
Abhay was still awake. He was feeling her pain. She couldn't sleep properly due to her pain. At last she slept more like he made her sleep.
Abhay looked at her beautiful face. few strands of her hair was coming on her face. He touched her stomach over her loose gown and kissed her stomach.
‘I am sorry Baby. I shouldn't let you know all these. You are in pain for me only.'
He was guilty for dragging her in all these. Her pain was hurting him. Her simple life is now miserable.
‘If I didn't cage you in my dark world you would never face this. Your past would never haunt you.'
He hugged her softly.
‘If you wouldn't come in my life I wouldn't find you Abhi, my ma would never get justice. I love you Abhi and will always love you.'
‘Baby you woke up? Is it paining?'
She tried to sit leaning on the pillow.
‘Wait I will help you Baby.'
She nodded and he made her sit leaning on the pillow.
‘It's not paining but it's hurting Abhi.'
‘Where Baby? Wait I will call the doctor.' He panicked. He was about to dial the doctor's number.
‘It's hurting to see you upset. ‘Abhay looked at her. She finally told him that she understood the reasons of his sad face.
‘Baby..'
‘No wait Abhi. Isn't it my duty to be with you always? You did everything for me then why can't I? I will be fine Abhi. Stop being guilty. Our dark past is long gone so forget about it. I love you Abhi.'
‘I love you too Baby. I am sorry for being upset.' He smiled at her. Mrinal pecked his forehead and hugged him.
That night Abhay slept peacefully for the first time after that fateful day.
