Chapter 57: chapter 57

***Nidhi and Kabir's story*********Dear all  for the next few chapters Kabir and Nidhi will be in lead role*****On the other hand, Kabir and Nidhi returned from Sanjana and Aditya's wedding..Nothing unusual happened between these  two, they both remained as friends till now..When they were about to enter the house, Kabir's mobile rang.." Nidhi you go up, I will take a call and come"Nidhi nodded and walked upstairs towards her room .she was happy that her best friend is married..She opened her wardrobe to pick up her  night suit..When Kabir entered the room, he saw Nidhi  humming a song and choosing clothes..from behind he felt like it's Nandini, she used to humm  songs when she  was in a good mood.Nidhi's physique  in saree from behind, and the length of the hair, he felt it's Nandini..For a second, he forgot that Nandini is no more..He ran towards Nidhi, hugging her from back, inhaling her sweet scent..Nidhi was shocked by his sudden approach. She gulped her saliva and the clothes in her hand fell down from her hands..Kabir kissed on her neck making her eyes go wide with surprise..She couldn't digest  what is happening to her right now .There was a power cut all of sudden and the room was completely dark, except for the moon light coming from the balcony..He made her turn but still he felt it's Nandini who was in front of him, not Nidhi..He carried her in bridal style and made her lay on the bed..Nidhi couldn't utter a word out of shock.She was happy that Kabir had finally accepted her. Kabir kissed her lips passionately as if he was longing for them for a long time.Nidhi's heart was filled with happiness.. She has been waiting for this day  for more than 6 months.. she started  to respond to his kiss which made Kabir completely explore her mouth..When he lacked breath he left her lips and said, " I love you Nandini"  and hugged her tightly..Nidhi's world turned upside down when she heard him..She felt disgusted and tears filled her eyes..He mistook her for someone else..Exactly at the same time power came back..She pushed Kabir and ran towards the bathroom covering her mouth..She opened the tap so that he could not hear her.She cried her heart out , cursing herself for not leaving her mark in Kabir's heart.When she married Kabir she knew the path was difficult but she had confidence in her..She thought she would definitely make Kabir love her back.."You failed Nidhi, you failed.. ",she cursed herself..She washed her mouth hurriedly, she didn't want his taste in her mouth.. He kissed her thinking she is Nandini.. She hated that feeling..She felt weak for the first time in her life..She started pulling her hair to control her pain.. She felt someone was cutting her  heart into pieces. Kabir came back to senses when Nidhi pushed him.. It took some seconds to analyse what happened just now.He felt embarrassed to face Nidhi, he mistook her for Nandini.. He thought, his sudden approach made her scared.. He was not satisfied with what he had done. He hit the wall out of frustration..He waited for her to apologise but   felt she was scared and hurt.. She will not listen to him..He walked towards the balcony for a cigarette and got lost in his thoughts..More than  an hour later , Nidhi came out  of the bathroom, changed her clothes and walked towards bed.. When she remembered what happened on the bed just now, her heart clenched..She looked around the room and saw Nandini's pics all over.. she saw them for the First time when she entered this room but didn't think much..But now she felt like crying.. She felt like Nandini saying to her ," You can never take my Kabir from me"You are Lucky Nandini, he loves you a lot.. She smirked..She saw him standing on the balcony.. She smirked once again at the bed, took her quilt quietly and slept on the couch..When she saw him entering the room ,he covered herself with the quilt, so that he wouldn't see her..Kabir was shocked to see her sleeping again on the couch. He moved towards her to speak to her but felt his words got stuck in his throat..He thought he would speak  to her tomorrow when she calmed down and walked towards his bed. He looked at her again , but he couldn't see her as she covered herself completely..He sighed and laid on the bed lost in his thoughts..Lost in their own world of   thoughts  , neither of them slept the whole night..*******Nidhi looked at the time and saw it was already 6:00 am in the morning.. She woke up and saw Kabir still sleeping on his bed.She walked towards the bathroom to take a shower and looked at herself in the mirror.. Her eyes were red and fluffy and there were dark circles around her eyes,   with tears stains all over her face, she looked  pathetic..She sighed, took a bath and came out..She rarely applies makeup but today she applied a little concealer to cover her dark circles..She didn't want Kabir's parents to know what happened last night..She went downstairs to help Kabir's mom in the kitchen and soon became busy preparing breakfast..Kabir's mom felt something amiss and was observing nidhi from the corner of her eye..Nidhi started arranging plates on the dining table and saw Kabir's feet near the dining table..She didn't lift her head and started serving food for Kabir's father..So as to behave normally she even served Kabir's plate..All through the breakfast she didn't   glance at Kabir for a second..she was hurt deep down.. Kabir was observing her but didn't dare to speak and quietly finished his eating.."Mom, I will  come early today .Prepare some snacks  for me in the evening.. "He said this to his mom but they were for Nidhi hinting her he will come early..Nidhi behaved as if she didn't care and walked inside the kitchen to control herself..He waited for Nidhi to come out of the kitchen to see her before going to the office.. but he was disappointed because she didn't come out..Once she realised he left, she walked near Kabir's mom and said," mom, I am preparing for M.B.A entrance, so I thought of joining a coaching centre, so if you agree i will join from today..Of course beta, you can.. You need not take permission from me for all these.. You would have gone with Kabir, he would have dropped you and helped you in admission..It's fine I can manage mom.. thank you..when Nidhi was about to leave, " Nidhi ,is something wrong between you and Kabir??" Kabir's mom asked.."There was nothing right between us from the beginning mom", Nidhi replied and left, leaving Kabir's mom in thoughts..Nidhi took a taxi and reached the coaching centre...Her father is rich and every month deposits money into her account as her pocket money.. Nidhi is not a fan of branded clothes and bags so she has enough money in her account to pay for her expenses and fees  during her training..********On the other hand Kabir was quite disturbed and  couldn't concentrate much on work today.. He decided he will take her out for dinner to have a good talk with her..When he was planning something in his mind, he heard "where are you lost bro?? "Hey Sanjay, long time no see, Kabir greeted .Sanjay sat in front of him and asked" What happened Kabir ,where are you lost?? Did you fight with Nidhi??""Kind of Yaar, just thinking how to apologise.." Kabir replied.What happened to your love story,did you talk to her?? Kabir asked..I would have been very lucky ,if she  could listen to me atleast once. She explodes like a bomb when I go near her." , Sanjay spoke with disappointment in his voice.."During Kriti's  engagement, I saw her going into a hotel  room, so I thought I would talk to her personally,but to my bad luck I ended up in the room where Sanjana was present..I thought I would speak to Sanjana to make her feel jealous. But what I didn't know at that time was that she already knew about the relationship between Sanjana and Aditya.. and easily guessed I was trying to fool her and I inturn  became a big fool...I feel like my bad luck is following me everywhere." Sanjay sneered.
