Their reputation will not get hampered but we will get doomed for sure. Erica has to marry him that's it" her father said After listening to all this Erica decided to get married to Kabir no matter what And with this she and Kabir got married in a very machanical marriage ceremony where neither Kabir nor Erica even took a glance of eachother.. ---------------------------------------------- Erica was standing infront of the mirror in Kabir's room... thinking about what had happened with her when the door knock got open with that Kabir came in and immediately got up and started looking the ground. "Why are you standing there , aren't you tired of the drama... anyways if you want you can continue whatever you were doing that's really not my concern" Kabir said "You can live your life I will live mine but just remember the fact that you are married to me , won't you say something!!??" He said "Erica!!" She said What??? He said My name is Erica not Anika she said and raising her head she looked into his eyes...Kabir saw her for the first time and their eyes met ... It was like a lightning in the sky ....and they looked eachother for a brief period of time and then he went out of the room!!!I was just beginning to drift into sleep when I felt Kabir shift behind me, his body pressing into mine. His arm snaked around my waist, and he started tracing his nose, down to my cheek, and then my neck. His breath was warm against my skin. āKabir, stopā¦ā I murmured, moving slightly away. āTomorrow is Kavisās exam. You know how stressed he getsāI have to wake up early.ā āYrr, heās just a five-year-old kid. What stress you are talking about!! about.ā Kabir groaned. āErica, itās been three months. Not even onceā¦ā His voice took on a pleading edge. āPlease, baby.ā I sighed, trying to keep my patience. āKabir, please just sleep. Next week, pakka.ā "Next week?" His voice darkened, and I felt him stiffen. A second later, he pulled away completely, turning his back toward me. I stared at his rigid shoulders, rolling my eyes. āKabir⦠have you gotten angry?ā I whispered, reaching out to hug him from behind. He didnāt respond, just tried to shake off my hands, but I didnāt let go. Eventu
After Anay returned home from the hospital, recovering from the bullet injury, Rajeshwar's fury knew no limits. In his eyes, Anay's betrayal was unforgivable-planning to murder Kabir was an act that shattered any hope of reconciliation. Enraged, Rajeshwar threw Anay out of the house, leaving him with nothing. Without a second glance at his family, Anay left in anger, seeking solace far away abroad, never once reaching out to even his mother, Smriti.Smriti, lost in the agony of losing her son, fell into a darkness she couldn't escape. The pain of separation consumed her, spiraling her into depression and anxiety. As the days passed, her health deteriorated rapidly. Her heart ached for the son who had become a stranger to her.Meanwhile, Kabir found joy in the soft glow of Erica's pregnancy. She was blossoming, her body slowly changing as the months went by, and Kabir, in his joy, became a pillar of care and concern. His protective nature over her was unwavering, but there was a kind o
The night spent on , each minute feeling like an eternity as she cried, the weight of Kabir's words pressing down on her like a suffocating blanket. She was terrified of losing him, terrified that the fragile bond they had built was on the verge of shattering.Erica buried her face in her hands, her fingers trembling as she recalled the pain in Kabir's eyes when he had spoken. The magnitude of what he had said loomed over her like a dark cloud, and she felt utterly lost. But amidst the despair, a flicker of resolve ignited within her. She wiped her tear-streaked face with the back of her hand, inhaling deeply to collect her strength. She couldn't let fear dictate her actions any longer.----------------------------------------------Next morning ------------------------Kabir stood under the shower, the water cascading over him, yesterday night was hard for him ....he was feeling so frustrated and vulnerable ..so much going on in his mind so much so that in a way he was trying to was
"You think I cheated on you?" His voice was low, hoarse, as if it had been a long time since he'd spoken the words. "I never needed to do that, Erica." He took a step forward, his gaze piercing hers. "If I wanted, I could have anyone I want. But I wasn't interested in anyone... apart from you."Erica stood frozen, her heart racing as she tried to make sense of the storm of emotions in his eyes. Her hands trembled at her sides, the weight of his words suffocating her."And if there had been someone else in my life," he continued, the bitterness in his tone cutting through the air, "I know you think I could trade anything for business, but the truth is, Erica... I would've never married you if I was having an affair. Never." His voice cracked slightly as the words fell from his lips, the rawness of his confession making her feel small, helpless."You know," Kabir's voice softened, a distant, painful memory creeping into his words, "My dad loved my mom, or so he always said. But he wasn
Erica's pov----------------I lay on the bed, my eyes fixed on Kabir's profile as he watched the movie . I had been waiting for what felt like an eternity for him to acknowledge my presence, but he didn't...my mind wandering to the tension between us.Slowly, I began to inch my way towards him, my movements deliberate and cautious. I didn't want to startle him, but I needed to break the silence that had been suffocating me for weeks. I slowly placed a hand on his torso, my face inches from his neck. I could feel the stiffness in his body, but he didn't say a word. He tried to remove my hand, but I held firm, my heart pounding in my chest.I leaned in, my nose touching his skin, and began to give him soft kisses near his ear while muttering "sorry" over and over again. I knew it was a risk, but I was desperate to reconnect with him, to make him see me, to hear me.Suddenly, Kabir's voice cut through the air, his tone firm but controlled. "Erica, stop it!" he saidI didn't back down.
Erica's pov ---------------------As I blinked awake, the familiar haze of sleep dissipated, revealing the stark emptiness beside me. Kabir hadnāt come to bed again, and the realization sent a surge of irritation through me. Just then, I caught sight of the relentless downpour outside. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and padded toward the balcony, the sound of rain drumming against the pavement growing louder with each step. The sky was in a shade of gray, heavy clouds swirling ominously, with flashes of lightning in between that illuminated the world for a split second. As I was watching A crack of thunder followed, sending a shiver down my spine, and I took a step back to inside, heart racing.I made my way downstairs so that I could ask for Kabir . As I descended the final few steps, I spotted him near the entrance, his hand resting on his waist, deep in conversation with the driver. Kabirās expression was of an annoyance , his gaze fixed on the stormy landscape outside
Please vote and comment šāā¤ļø----------------------------------------------Erica groggily sat up in bed, the sunlight streaming through the curtains piercing her eyes like tiny needles. She winced, pressing her palms against her temples, where a pounding headache throbbed with intensity.The memories of the previous night flickered in and out like a faulty light bulb. Just as she was beginning to calm herself, a soft knock interrupted her thoughts."Good morning, mam!" a cheerful voice chimed as the maid entered, a bright smile lighting up her face. She placed a tray on the bedside table with a gentle clatter.Erica squinted at the tray. "What is this? And where...where is Kabir?" she asked, her voice shaky as she examined the plate of toast and the glass of lemon water.The maid hesitated, glancing down at the floor as if searching for the right words. "Mam, sir went to the hotel site. He asked me to give you this lemon water. He also said to give you this medicine if your headach
The car pulled up to the bungalow parking lot, and Kabir stepped out from his side. As he reached the front of the vehicle, Erica hurried out as well and took hold of his hand. "Kabir, please listen to me! Just this once, baby... Iām begging you," she pleaded with a tone of urgency. "Erica, it's already very late at night , let me go and sleep please ," he replied, attempting to move ahead removing her hold but something made him pause. He glanced at her, his eyes narrowing. āAlso, Iām very glad your ankle healed so fast,ā he added, scratching the back of his ear while glancing at her injured ankle that had been sprained just moments earlier.Erica gaze dropped to her ankle, and she immediately attempt to lift it while feigning a wince of pain...ouch...no..no...it still hurts..He turned away, shaking his head as he walked towards the entrance of the bungalow. The sound of her voice trailed behind him, desperate and pleading. āKabir! Kabirrrr! Kabir... stop and listen to me once!āBut
The next night--------------------------Erica pushed open the door to her room, expecting the usual stillness of the space, but instead, she was met with the sound of rustling clothes and Kabir was standing there, his back to her and with precise movements of his hands he was combing his hair catched her attention. He was dressed in a sleek black shirt and jeans that fit him just right. every detail of his attair was perfect. She leaned against the doorframe, watching him in silence for a moment before stepping closer. "Are you going somewhere?" Ericaās voice was laced with curiosity, but Kabir didnāt even acknowledge her presence at first. His eyes remained focused on his reflection as he adjusted his shirt, then bent down to slide on his shoes, all the while whistling a carefree tune.Erica raised an eyebrow, the question lingering in the air. āKabir, Iām askingyou⦠where are you going, dressing up like this?āKabir didnāt answer Instead, he stood up, still whistling, as if he
