1275 Words
Her bladders were about to burst.......!
of course, 6 glass of water and 1 and a half hour waiting and then talking to your almost invisible husband reappearing same day every year does that to you.
She couldn't believe, she did that.......she never dared before ever!
The moment he left Mayuree ran to the washroom. She finished her business and walked out off the restaurant through the main door.
But she didn't call for uber or anything........She started walking in the vague direction because she saw someone very familiar was looking at her through glass barrier earlier while talking to Rikkard but of course he didn't notice he was busy eating......
Oh! and how sexy he looked chewing his food, how does he___
Shut up,
shut up,
shut up!
stop being creep, do not think about him!.......she scolded herself
She walked straight to the backside of the restaurant where emergency exit was and stopped dead before pulling out her phone to call that man who saved her years ago,......
Her brother, her partner in crimes,
ZAHIN Qureshi!
He came out of hiding after 5 minutes....with a big smile plastered on her face as she run right into his arm. Well, It's not everyday you got to meet your brother specially when he's out on different missions every now and then
"You got married,.....that too 3 years ago!" He didn't ask just stated the fact as it is.
she let out a defeated sigh.....
"mmh!...3 years ago in this very date!" She answered bobbing her head, meeting his brown eyes.
"you need a hair cut and a nice shave bhai.....you look like an ape" She said again looking at his bushy thick beard and touching hus shoulder length mane affectionately
"And you didn't even feel like informing US at all, i had to find out in other way." and again he ignored her distraction and just stated,........in a very calm voice
ok, he was upset!
After a while another one came out of the hiding.....dancing-clever eyes, crooked smile, light brown hair,.....
"Kol" She let out a teary laugh and hugged him too. She missed his blond haired and sparkly blue eyed face the most.
"Don't you look gorgeous, girl!" He complimented looking down at her intently
"I've missed both of you and No, i did try to call you any way i could, even ma tried but you weren't here.
Lionel said....."he's out and We've no idea where and even if we do this is not something I'd discuss with a CIVILIAN" I mean are you serious he didn't let me contact you at all." She clarified her self as he was looking at her
"you know sometimes i feel like he really hates me..... I don't know why!"
"Who! Lionel ?" He asked looking at her questioningly
"Yeah!...from the very first moment i joined"
"Nonsense! he's very professional and dutiful! That's it. And It's true....he is not allowed to disclose anything to a civilian." Kol said rolling his eyes
"C'mon Brothers, he knows me just fine it's just always something weird going with him. As if he's always......." Zahin cut her off saying...
"Mayur.....you left! remember ? you left because you wanted to live a normal life! Normal life doesn't gives you access in FBI or to It's agents. Specially when they're not present"
"Ok..ok! I surrender! I'm sorry i shouldn't be bad mouthing about your dear friend,
What! are you guys buddies now ?" She asked wiggling eyebrows.
Both exchanged a look and then turned to her....
"Enough distracting us from the real questions......and you look like a girl by the way, i never noticed before" Kol said with smirk
"Ma's saree, i guess! because you don't have any,..... how are you!? How is the marriage going. Is he good to you ?" Zahin asked with a slight warning in his voice that said....if not then ___
She forgot how well both could read her without even trying.....after all they spent years together, they aren't her big brothers and even biggest confidant for nothing, she sighed......
"frankly it happened all of a sudden and it wasn't some big bang wedding, just us! And i really missed you that day." She said letting out a halfhearted smile,
while, crossing her finger behind her back_____God!....don't ask about him. Don't ask about him...... praying in her mind
"how come you are meeting me here.....i mean, you could have come home" She asked
and both boys shared another look
"your husband Rikkard King!.......his life is in danger as well as yours" Zahin said after minutes of silence and her eyes widened and breath caught in throat.
"Wh....what! How!??" She asked
"He may have found out about YOU.... Us!....all of us" Kol whispered looking at her behind and his as well to see if anyone following them or anything abnormal.
"F***!" curse left her mouth
"yep,.....fuck indeed" Zahin said rubbing his face
"what the f**k did we do in our previous life time to deserve this shit.......can't my past just leave me alone! Can't he leave me alone ?" She asked anger pouring in her words
"we have to keep our guard up.....hey! it's ok, we went through hell and back... yet here we are alive. If need raised we'll tackle him again, Ok ?" Kol embraced her, tried to console her
but it did next to nothing......if anything, it only served to make her agitated.
She left for home and without even doing anything for a whole freaking day she was tired, really really tired!
Of everything......
After finishing her dinner which she barely touched......her ma was yelling at her for not eating properly.
she went upstairs and pulled out her phone and called Zahin....
"hey"
"hello, listen bhai! we need to find a good place, i want to taste my skills,......every single one! So make sure to bring every single weapons......
Everything!
contact Marianna Shaw! tell her I'm ready to return and tell no one.....
and one more thing......not a single soul should find out that I'm married to Rikkard King!
looks like it’s imperative for me to join FBI again" She said after thinking for a while
"What! what do you mean no one knows..... you are wife of famous business tycoon and no one knows ? What. Is. Happening ?" He asked sounding angry
"please don't ask anything right now.....just trust me okay" She requested
"no it doesn't work that way! we have inform your husband that his life is in danger.....A f*****g power hungry maniac is out to get him! we can't NOT tell him, we have to reinforce his security and only way is to start taking precautions and for you to be with him 24/7 personally...... no other option" he stated
"Wedon'tlivetogether!" She said in one breath
"What!?.....say that again!" He asked
"we......we do not live together. As you can see I'm still living in my father's house,....even after marriage" She mumbled feeling sudden heaviness in her chest remembering that she just asked for divorce today.
"What! how come...!" He asked getting confused
"Well......It's a long story. For another time bhai! Now i gotta go,.....good night!" She said and cut the call not wanting to explain anything.....
And what was there to explain ,.....!
That her dear husband doesn't love her and doesn't want to be with her,......she knew that, just doesn't want to say it out loud,
Not infront of Zahin!......he'd do something crazy! Who knows maybe he'd kidnap Rikkard and take him somewhere and beat him to pulp.......even before any other fucker gets to him!
a snort left her mouth.......sometimes she wonders if life would
ever seize to surprise them!
