Kavya's POV

The doorbell rang and I went to open the door and saw Kabir standing their leaning against the wall.

'Are you okay?' I asked as he entered the house.

'Is Raj asleep?' he asked.

'Yes. He had his dinner and he went to sleep some time back. He was waiting for you but he was feeling very sleepy so I ordered him to go to sleep,' I told him.

'Did he go to the washroom before going to sleep?' he asked as he sat on the sofa.

'Yes. Before going to sleep I insisted to take him to the washroom even though he was not comfortable, he reluctantly agreed.' I answered while giving him a glass of water.

'Thank you,' he said and drank the whole glass of water.

'Are you okay? You seem tired?' I asked again.

'Did you have your dinner?' he asked back.

'No. Now tell me, are you okay? You look very tired,' I asked him for the third time.

'I am feeling exhausted as I admitted aunty's grandson to the hospital, paid the bills and sat in the hospital for few hours until aunty told me that I can leave as he had his dinner and took the medicines. Tomorrow I will check on him before going to the hotel,' he told me.'

'Tomorrow you will go to the hotel?' I asked him.

'Of course.'

'If you don't go to the hotel one day, it's not that it will go through a major loss,' I said as I went into the kitchen to warm the dinner for us.

He came and stood against the counter and I looked at him.

'Or do you think that customers come there just to see your handsome face and hotel will be in huge loss if you don't go for one day?' I asked sarcastically before he could reply the previous question and heard a huge laughter and looked at him to see that he was laughing wholeheartedly which made me smile.

'Do you think I am handsome?' he asked and was still laughing.

'Of course, anyone who has eyes can see that you are handsome,' I looked at him to see that he was laughing.

'Why are you laughing? I am stating a fact,' I asked as she bought the dinner on the dining table and served him a plate and made a plate for herself.

'Nothing,' he chuckled.

'Anyways, why did you wait for me to have dinner? Why didn't you had your dinner with Raj?' he changed the subject.

'I waited for you because I wanted to wait for you. Now, start your dinner,' I playfully scolded him and he didn't say anything and started having his dinner.

I was glad that his hands are almost healed and he can eat by himself.

*****

'I will wash the utensils,' he said, rolled his sleeves, pushed me aside and started washing the plates.

'Kabir, I can wash it.'

'But, you don't have to wash it,' he said and continued washing the utensils and I stood beside him.

'The cut on your fingers has still not healed fully,' I said.

'I called the doctor while coming home. He told me to take my medicines on time and I will be completely healed in one or two days and as you can see, I can eat with my own hands,' he said.

'Have you ever washed the utensils?' I asked after some time.

'One or two times, when aunty had taken a leave.'

'Should I take a picture of you?' I asked and he looked at me and raised his eyebrows.

'The great, Kabir Ahuja, owner of Hotel Royal Plaza is washing the utensils,' I said and started laughing and he joined me.

'I will call the paparazzi, leak the pictures and earn a good money out of it,' I said and was still laughing.

'No, no, I don't want to use you to earn money,' I continued after few seconds.

'You can use me all you want,' he said and I looked at him.

What?

'Anyways, now let's sleep,' he changed the topic just in few seconds as he finished washing the last utensils.

'You can sleep on the bed,' I said.

'Yes, I know that you don't like sleeping on my bed,' he said.

'No, it's not like that. I have only slept with Sohum. I have never slept on anyone's bed other than our bed after marraige and my bed, when I go to visit my family,' I told him.

'I can understand, You don't have to explain it to me. Okay, then I will sleep on the bed as the bed is already empty,' I said.

'I will go and check on Raj. You can go in the room,' he said and went towards Raj's room.

*****

'You know, this is the first time I am sharing room with a girl,' he said as I came out of the washroom.

'Really?' You never bought any girl here?' I asked as he took his medicine.

'No,' he said and he gestured me towards the chair.

'There is a thick sleeping mat and a duvet for you. Last night, I know that you slept on a yoga mat as you didn't found anything,' he said and a smile escaped my lips.

'Thank you.'

I placed it on the floor and sat down and looked at him. 'So, you didn't even bring your girlfriends here?' I asked again.

'Why are you so sure that I have a girlfriend?' he asked.

'Because you are rich and handsome?' I said but it came out as a question.

'Just because I am rich and handsome, I should have a girlfriend?' he asked.

'No! No! It came out wrong. I mean---

'So a girl will fall in love with me just because I am rich and handsome? They will not check how I am as a person just because I am rich and handsome?' he cut me off and he sounded angry.

'Kabir, I didn't mean it like that. I---

'My father was also rich and handsome. Then why couldn't he keep my mom? Or you girls get bored of one rich and handsome man and go to another?'

Shit! What is he even saying?

I just said it without thinking much.

I got up, ran to him and held his face in my hands.

'Kabir, please calm down. Look at me,' I said and he looked in my eyes.

'Kabir, I didn't think that much before speaking. You know that I am more inclined towards drama and films. So, in few dramas, I saw that those who are rich always have few girlfriends, so I said it as a joke. I am sorry if you got hurt,' I said and I felt him relax.

'I am sorry if I hurt you,' I said again while caressing his cheek.

'Let's go to sleep,' he said and I removed my hand.

'Are you angry at me?' I asked but he didn't reply and laid down on the bed.

'Can you give me a day? I will be okay by tomorrow,' he said and turned around.

'Why are you angry at me? You don't believe that I said it unintentionally?' I asked.

'I am not in a right state of mind, Kavya. Give me a day. I will be okay,' he said.

'And, no, I am not angry at you,' he continued but I was feeling guilty.

I ruined his mood.

'I am sorry to say that all girls are after handsome and rich men. In a way, I have also degraded all the girls. Yes, some girls are like that but not everyone. Like, look at me, I married Sohum as I liked his nature and my parents also told that he will be a good partner for me, and from a young age I used to say that, I will marry someone my parents will choose as they will always choose the best for me and they were right about Sohum.' I said and looked at him and a chuckle escaped my lips.

Few days ago, who would have thought that I will sit like this with Kabir.

Befriending Kabir is the only decision I made by myself and I am proud of the decision I made.

Even though he does not care about the world, but for his loved ones, he can give up his life.

He is so nice and caring but only few people are lucky to see this side of Kabir and I am glad that I am one of the lucky person to see the positive side of Kabir.

I don't know what happen with his parents but I think that he came from a broken family, and if he came from a broken family, yet he is giving Raj all the love he deserves then that is really commendable.

'You are remembering Sohum and smiling, right?' I looked at him and was surprised.

I was so lost in his thought that I didn't realize when he got up.

'Your life revolves around him only, right? You don't even care about my pain. You are talking about him from the time I am upset and smiling while remembering him,' he said.

No. He is wrong.

I was thinking about Kabir.

Yes, I agree that I was thinking about Sohum I don't know when my mind drifted towards Kabir.

'No. You are wrong. I---

'Yes, it's your right to think about your husband but can't you for once think about me, your friend?' he asked almost shouted.

'You are wrong, Kabir.' I shouted back.

'You are not letting me speak and you are making assumptions by yourself. You are always cutting me off when I am trying to say something in my defense,' I continued and he was just staring at me.

'First of all, I didn't mean when I said that maybe you have girlfriend as you are rich and handsome. I said it as a joke and, secondly, I was thinking about my husband, but my mind drifted towards you. I started thinking about how kind and caring you are to your loved ones and how Raj is so lucky to have you as his brother because you give him all the love he deserve even though it seems like you came from a broken family.' I cleared everything and he was just staring at me.

'I am sorry,' he said after few seconds.

'Few days back I felt guilty for thinking about you instead of my husband, but now I let my mind wander towards you as now I have accepted you as my friend but when you get angry you forget everything.' I was leaving angrily but he stopped me by holding my wrist.

I turned around and looked at him.

'Are you crying?' he asked.

Shit! I tried so hard to control my tears, yet he noticed it.

'No,' I lied and didn't let my tears fall.

I don't want him to think me as a weak girl who always cry.

'Please, sit down,' he said and I sat beside him.

'You dont have to show me your tears but I am sorry for making you cry,' he said.

'It's okay. I will go to sleep,' I told him.

'Before that, just answer my one question. Are you still angry with me?' I asked her.

'I am just upset that you always jump into conclusions. Don't jump into conclusions when you are angry,' I said.

'And, I know, as my friend you have done many things for me, and I have not done much in return for you, but, please don't question my friendship towards you. I agree that I have not done anything for you as your friend but I consider you as my close friend.' I continued.

'I have never doubted your friendship, Kavya. I am sorry for talking without thinking much. You befriended me even when you didn't knew that I am an owner of the hotel whereas everyone comes to me after knowing who I am. I am sorry for everything I said.'

'It's okay, Kabir. Don't think too much.' I said and went and laid down and closed my eyes thinking about how my life has changed after meeting Kabir.

Do you know, how I decided to write Kavya's character?

I have seen many Kavya around me. Many kavya are burdened with responsibilities of their children when their husband leaves the world suddenly. They cant even cry or grief in front of their children.

Many Kavyas has to face the world alone suddenly, like going to bank and understand all the documents of their deceased husband suddenly instead of mourning over his loss.

I have seen many Kavya, whom people does not include in many pooja or who has to go through many bad intentions of men and who are sometimes even blamed for their husband's death.

That's how Kavya was born in my mind.

Do you know such Kavya around you? I hope they are happy, alone or with somebody.
