Sorry for not posting these last few months. Life was going very busy but I will finish this story and 'Illicit Love.'

4500 words.

Kavya's POV

'Let's go and lay down on the bed comfortably. You must be tired,' I said as I got up and he loosened his tie and opened two buttons of his shirt.

'Okay,' he got up and the doorbell rang.

I went to open it to see Mala Aunty standing in front of me.

'Hi! Can I have a packet of milk? My milk got spoiled and guests have come in my house,' she said.

'Yes, Aunty,' I said and walked towards the kitchen.

'Oh! You are also here?' she said as she looked at Kabir.

'Yes,' Kabir said and sat on the sofa.

I gave her the packet of milk.

'Thank you, Kavya. Uh... keep talking with your friend,' she said and left and I closed the door behind her.

'Now she will tell everybody that you were here,' I said and he just shrugged his shoulder.

'I don't know what to say,' he said.

'Anyways. Let's go,' I said and we went in the bedroom and he laid on the bed and unbuttoned first few buttons of his shirt.

I gulped looking at him.

'What? Why are you standing there? Come here,' he said and opened his arms for me.

'Uh...

'Are you feeling uncomfortable?' he asked.

'No,' I said softly and went and laid down near him and he pulled me closer to him.

'Relax yourself,' he said and I nodded.

'I have never slept in any man's arms except Sohum,' I said softly.

'I know, baby. Just relax,' he said.

'I thought you will get angry,' I said.

'I have made myself understood that Sohum is a part of your life,' he said and I smiled and placed my hands on his stomach and snuggled more close to him.

'Are you happy?' he asked.

'I am very very happy,' I said.

'Are you happy?' I asked after few seconds.

'Of course. I am feeling like the most happiest person in the world,' he said making me smile as I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

*****

The ringing of doorbell woke me up to see that it was 9 p.m.

God! We have slept for so long. I looked at Kabir to see that he was sleeping peacefully so I slowly got up and went to open the door to see that Tanisha and Tarun standing in front of me.

'So, how is your health?' Tanisha asked as soon as they got inside.

'It's better after I took the medicine,' I lied.

'You were sleeping?' she asked as she looked at me.

'Yes. Me and Kabir fell asleep,' I told her.

'Oh my god! You were sleeping with Kabir?' she gasped with a grin on her face and I realized she was teasing me.

'We were just sleeping. Stop teasing me. Hi! Tarun,' I greeted him as they sat on the sofa. I went and brought them a glass of water.

'Hey! Hi, Handsome,' Tanisha greeted Kabir and I turned around to see him coming out of the bedroom.

'Hello, Princess. I hope you enjoyed with Tarun,' Kabir said.

'Yes. We enjoyed it but we missed you guys,' Tanisha said as they sat on the sofa.

'So, how was your day out with Tarun, your new friend?' I asked as Kabir sat beside me.

'I found a friend who is a good listener,' Tanisha said.

'And I found a friend who is very sensitive but hides it behind her fun side,' Tarun said and I looked at Kabir.

'See,' I mouthed. Now, they have become friends and I hope this friendship will turn into something more. That's why I didn't go with them today. I wanted them to spend some alone time so they can know each other. Both of them have gone through so much in terms of love so I want them to be happy with each other.

'So, you will come tomorrow for dinner, right?' Kabir asked Tanisha.

'Yes. I will come for dinner. And, tomorrow I will spend whole day with Kavya as tomorrow will be my last day here,' Tanisha said.

'What? You are leaving tomorrow?' Tarun exclaimed.

'Yes. I have to go to work,' Tanisha said.

'Okay. Then, I will drop you off,' Tarun said.

'Okay. I will message you few hours before leaving,' Tanisha said.

'Okay. I will leave,' Tarun said and got up.

'Okay. Bye,' We bid him goodbye and he left.

'Handsome, you had dinner?' Tanisha asked.

'No. I will go home and have dinner. Did you have dinner?' he asked.

'Yes. I had it with Tarun,' she said making me smile.

'I will leave then,' he told me.

'You could have had dinner with me,' I said.

'Some other time. I had already messaged Suraj. He will be here in few minutes. Have dinner. Don't sleep empty stomach,' he said.

'Yes. I will have the leftover from afternoon,' I said.

'Bye, then,' he said as he kissed my forehead.

'Bye, Tanisha,' he hugged her and then left the place.

*****

'So, are you happy with Handsome?' Tanisha asked as we laid on the bed after I had dinner and washed utensils.

'Yes. He cares a lot about me,' I said.

'I am happy you found each other. Handsome was alone for so many years. We thought he will remain single but then you came in his life and everything changed,' she said.

'Your Handsome brought happiness in my life. After Sohum died, I was living but I didn't feel alive. He brought beautiful colours in my life,' I said with a smile on my face.

'Anyways, show me today's pictures,' I said.

'Oh! Yes! I had clicked so many pictures,' she said excitedly and took out her mobile.

*****

'Bye,' Tanisha bid me goodbye as she sat in Tarun's car.

Today, she wanted to leave by 7 a.m. but we got late as we slept very late yesterday.

We came home at 2 a.m. in the morning from Kabir's house so we could not wake up early in the morning.

We got busy in watching some Horror movie. After so many years I enjoyed sitting with other people and watching a movie.

Kabir wanted us to sleep there but we refused as Tanisha had to pack her bags so kabir dropped us off.

'No problem, Kavya. I had fun yesterday,' he said as Tarun bid me goodbye.

'Bye, drive carefully,' I said as Tarun started the car.

*****

As the school ended, my mobile rang. I took out my mobile to see that Kabir was calling me.

'Hello,' I greeted him.

'Hello, baby. Come to my house with Raj,' he said.

'Bu...but..

'No, buts. I want to come home and see you there ' he said cutting me off.

'But, what will Shalini aunty and Suraj Bhaiya think?'

'They will be happy that their boss had finally brought a girl home,' he said making me laugh.

'Okay. But, at night, I want you to drop me at my house,' I said.

'Okay.'

*****

'Madam, sir told me that you will be coming with us?' Suraj said.

'You will be coming with us?' Raj asked.

'Yes. I will be coming with you,' I told Raj as we walked towards the car.

*****

'Hello, aunty,' I greeted her as soon as I entered the house.

'Hello! You had lunch?' she asked.

'Yes. I had it at school. I will go and freshen up,' I said and climbed upstairs to Kabir's room to freshen up.

*****

'What did you had for lunch?' she asked as I sat on the sofa.

'Ladies finger curry and roti,' I told her.

'Why did you come downstairs? You should have taken rest in sir's room?' she asked.

'I will wait here till Raj has his lunch and goes to take a nap,' I said and she smiled.

'I also want to pack roti and curry in tiffin for Raj but he doesn't like it. He loves to come home and have curry and roti. So somedays I give him snacks like sandwich or cutlet and on the other days I give him poha or upma,' she said.

'Aunty, you will not have lunch with me?' Raj asked as he sat on the chair.

'I had lunch, Raj. I am just sitting here to give you company,' I said as aunty put a plate with aloo curry and roti in front of him.

'Thank you, aunty,' he said and started his lunch.

'You will not have lunch?' I asked aunty.

'I will have it later,' she said and I nodded my head.

*****

After Raj went to take a nap, I went in his room and looked around and sat on the bed.

Earlier I didn't even sleep on the bed but now everything has changed.

I laid on his pillow, took his duvet and snuggled myself in it as it smelled like him.

I closed my eyes and tried to sleep but it felt odd to sleep in someone's house other than mine but still I dcided to try.

*****

I woke up as I felt someone's hands on my stomach and looked at my side to see Kabir sleeping beside me.

'Got up?' he asked as he moved forward and put his head on my stomach.

'I love sleeping on your stomach,' he said making me smile.

"You can sleep on it anytime,' I said while caressing his hair.

I like when this man who handles a whole business acts like a kid infront of me.

'So, what did you do the whole day?' I asked him.

'Today was salary day. So, was checking the reports of all my employees,' he said.

'Okay.'

'I love that you asked me about my work. Can't you just stay here forever?' he asked making me laugh.

'I will ask you on call,' I said.

'So you will not stay here at night?' he asked.

'No,' I replied.

'Don't you want to stay with me or is it just me? From the day we came together, I don't want to spend a single second away from you. I just want to be with you, touch you, hug you, kiss you,' he said and got up.

'Of course you will not feel like me. This is my first relationship. Before you, I had not even touched a girl,' he continued as I got up and held his hand in mine.

'Kabir, it is nothing like that. People will start talking if they don't see me in the flat. Okay, Friday, Saturday and Sunday I will spend here. I will tell them that my father misses me so I decided to spend my weekends with him. Happy?' I asked.

'Promise?' he forwarded his hands like a kid making me smile.

'Promise,' I said as he slightly pushed me on the bed and started pushing up my kurti but I suddenly held his hands to stop him.

'Kabir, what are you doing?' I panicked.

'Don't worry, I will not cross my limits,' he said and I sighed in relief and removed my hands.

He pushed my kurti more and stopped midway and now he was looking at my stomach.

'Can I touch it?' he asked and I nodded my head.

He started caressing my stomach and I closed my eyes to feel his touch.

I was feeling this for the first time.

Suddely, I felt his lips on my stomach and opened my eyes to see him kissing my stomach.

Then he again, laid his head on my bare stomach.

'I will not able to stop myself if I don't stop now,' he said making me smile.

'So, Raj said tomorrow is parent teacher meeting,' he said.

'Yes. But you have never came in the previous meetings,' I said.

'Yes. Unfortunately, Raj used to forget to tell me beforehand so I already had my day scheduled and I could not come but today while coming upstairs, I checked his diary casually and got to know about it,' I said.

'Okay. So you will come tomorrow?' I asked.

'Of course. How can I miss the chance to see you?' he said and I bit his head playfully.

'Kabir, this is about Raj, not me,' I said and we started laughing.

'What's there to know about Raj's performance? He is brilliant and obedient,' he said.

'That's true. So what will you wear tomorrow?' he asked.

'Saree,' I told him.

'Wow! I can't wait to see you,' he said excitedly making me laugh.

'You are crazy. Now, let's go and see what Raj and aunty are doing.'

'No. I just want to lie on you peacefully. They can stay without us,' he said making me laugh.

'By the way, you will have dinner here, right?' he asked.

'Yes.'

'I am so excited to have dinner with you,' he said, making me laugh again.

I have never been so happy.

*****

'Why have you taken a single pleat(one side pallu)? Aashika asked.

'We have decided to pin up our pallu and tying our hair in a bun,' she continued.

'When? We only decided on dark blue saree,' I said.

'We discussed it in whatsapp group. You have not seen it?' she asked.

'No.' I was so busy with Kabir that I didn't even see my mobile.

'Some people pin up their pallu in such a way that no parts of their body is visible but I can't do it,' I said.

'But we all pinned up our pallu and tied our hair in a bun. You will look odd one out before parents. Wait! I will pin up your saree,' she said and started pinning up my saree.

'By the way, you have not worn your sindoor and mangalsutra?' she asked.

'I stopped wearing it,' I said.

'Good! Finally! I think you are ready to move on,' she said as she pinned up my pleat and my face fell when I saw that a part of my stomach was visible.

'Kavya, live a little. Don't behave like an aunty. You are not even thirty,' she said and tied up my hair in a bun.

'Aashika, can't I keep the hair open? The cut of this blouse is low, that's why I kept my hair open,' I said and touched my hair but she jerked my hands away.

'But we all tied our hair in a bun,' she said as Nita came in.

'Wow! You are looking different today' she said making me laugh.

Kabir will be so happy after seeing me.

*****

'Mr sehgal, take a seat,' I said as Mr. Sehgal took a seat.

'Nishant is very obedient child, but for the last few days he is very quiet. Is everything okay?' I asked and a big smile escaped my lips as I saw Kabir behind Mr. Sehgal but I suddenly stopped smiling before Mr. Sehgal gets suspicious.

'Actually his mom met with an car accident and doctor advised her for six months full bed rest so he is just upset because of that,' he said.

'Oh! That's sad. Don't worry! I will try to keep him happy at school. Take care of Mrs. Sehgal,' I said and got up.

'Wait! He forgot to take his History copy home,' I turned around and took out history copy from my purse and gave it to him.

'Bye, Madam. Nice to meet you,' he said and forwarded his hand.

'Bye,' I shake his hand and removed my hands from his grip in a second.

'Madam, can I get your mobile number so that I can talk to you about Nishant?' he said surprising me.

'If you want to talk about him, you can come and talk to me,' I tried to avoid him politely.

'But---

'Sir, I am getting late. If you are done, can I talk with Madam?' Kabir said.

'Oh. Okay! Bye, madam. I will come and meet you if I want to talk something about Nishant,' he said.

'Sure, sir. You are always welcome,' I said and he left.

'You are the last one to come. I thought you will not come,' I said as he took a seat.

'How is Raj's progress?' he asked without even saying anything to what I said.

'I think he is the most obedient student I have ever seen. His result is good, he always completes his homework and he never fights with anybody,' I said.

'Okay. Then I will leave,' he got up.

'Are you okay? You seem angry. Did something happen?' I ask.

'Nothing happened. I am going at the hotel. You can go to my house if you want,' he said.

'No. I don't want to go to your house when your mood is like this. I will go to my house. You can come to my house when you feel better,' I said and he left.

What has happened to him?

*****

I got out of the elevator and started walking towards my flat, I saw Kabir standing infront of the hotel.

'You were going to the hotel, right?' I asked.

'I couldn't go,' he said.

'Okay,' I said as I took out the key and unlocked my door and went inside and he followed me.

I put the bag on the chair and was going in the kitchen when he wrapped his hand around my stomach from behind.

'Leave me, Kabir. I was so excited to see you but you ruined everything and I don't even know the reason,' I said as he nuzzled my neck.

'Say that you are only mine,' he said and bit my neck making me wince.

'Move,' I tried to push him but he didn't budge.

'You are only mine. Say it,' he said again and bit my ear.

'Ah. Kabir, stop,' I  pushed him with all my force and turned around to look at him.

'What is your problem?' I asked.

'You are looking so hot and sexy and everybody saw you. That bare back, bare stomach, the hot look. I don't know how many guardian are remembering you right now but I am sure Mr. Sehgal must be dreaming about you,' he said making me surprise.

'Are you crazy? We all teachers wore saree like this only. I am not that beautiful that everybody will think about me. There are many beautiful teachers than me,' I said.

'And, Mr. Sehgal is married. How can you even think that he must be thinking about me right now? He has to take care of his wife who will be in bed rest for six months and he also has to take care of his son. Why will he think about me?' I contined.

'And, I did a single pleat saree so that my stomach will not be visible and I even opened my hair so that my back would not be visible but Aashika changed my look as everyone decided on pinning up the pleats and tying hair in a bun. I never wear so low cut blouse but my tailor did it by mistake and I had no other saree other than this as the theme was dark blue plain saree,' I explained him.

'Baby, you are very innocent. You will be scared of my thoughts regarding you when we were just friends,' he said making me confuse.

'What?' I asked.

'Nothing. You are too pure. I don't want to taint you but I have to show you otherwise you will not believe me,' he said and took out his mobile and started doing something and then give me his mobile in which a video of two men talking started playing.

'Rakesh, you were right. Nishant's teacher is looking so hot. I have seen her before also but she always covers herself, but today, god, she is looking so sexy. I will not be able to sleep today. Physically, I will be next to my wife but mentally I will be remembering those curves, that back and that stomach. By the way, is she single? I guess she is single. She has not worn mangalsutra or sindoor.' I took the phone and threw it on the sofa.

'What is this? Rakesh has a daughter of Raj's age. And, Mr. Sehgal, how can he think like this? This is so disgusting.' I felt chill down my spine.

'God, I am feeling so dirty right now,' I said and sat on the sofa and he pulled me into his arms.

'While I was leaving, I saw them talking and recorded it and then came here instead of going to the hotel,' he said.

'This is so wrong, Kabir. They are married and have kids. Their wives must be waiting for them and they are thinking about other women. This is so wrong,' I said as he started caressing my arm.

'I know that it is wrong but this is reality, baby,' he said.

'You are not angry at me for wearing the saree in a revealing way?' I asked.

'I was angry at first but then I saw every teacher wore the saree in same way and tied the hair in the same way so I guessed you all must have decided on it,' he said.

'When you turned out to take out History copy from your back, he was looking at you like he will jump on you,' Raj told me.

'God! I should not have turned around. Shit,' I cursed myself.

'I know that you see good in everybody so you will not believe me so I recorded them,' he said again and I nodded my head.

'But it is cheating. He said he will sleep beside his wife and think about me. God! I am feeling so disgusted right now,' I said.

'It is not your fault. I trimmed the parts of what Rakesh said next,' he said.

'What did he say?' I asked.

'You will feel very bad after hearing that, baby.'

'Kabir, tell me what Rakesh said,' I insisted.

'He said that he will think about you while having sex with his wife and this were not his exact words. He used different words. His words were more vulgar,' he told me and I felt like vomitting.

'You does not seem bothered by it. You are talking about it so casually,' I said.

'I have seen plenty of men like them from a young age. For them women are just objects. It is not their first time and you are not the first one they talked about. They don't even love their wife or children. For them, their wife and kids are just a trophy to show off in the society,' he said.

'It never happened before,' I said.

'Maybe, it did but you were too innocent to understand. Baby, forget men, you don't even know how some woman acts nowadays and that's why I want to protect your innocence by taking you far away from this cruel world but it is impossible as people like this are everywhere,' he said as I snuggled closer to him.

'I should have worn sindoor and tied my mangalsutra. Then, atleast they would have not thought about me in such a dirty way,' I said and he chuckled.

'Do you really think it would have stopped them?' he asked.

'No.'

'I don't know how men think because Sohum was a very nice and with me also he was very respectful and never touched me that much,' I said and he looked at me surprisingly.

'What? Why are you looking at me like that?' I asked.

'How can he be respectful when touching you? He seemed like a saint. Baby, when a man loves a woman, he always wants to touch her, kiss her and have sex with her. He always wants to be close to his woman in any way he can,' he said and went away and sat on the other side of the sofa.

'Baby, I am sorry but you must be hating me, right now. I am not Sohum, I am kabir and I always want to touch you in any way I can,' he said and I went and sat beside him and held his hand in mine.

'I know that you are Kabir. I love when you touch me. If I don't love it, then I would have stopped you, right?' I asked and kissed his forehead.

'But you said Sohum was very nice and respectful just because he didn't touch you that much?' he asked.

'But I love Kabir who pounce on me whenever he sees me,' I used the words he used when we were in Tanisha's house and he started laughing and I joined him.

'So, you love that kabir, right?' he asked as he picked me up and walked towards the bedroom and placed me on the bed and laid on top of me but balanced his weight on one of his hands.

He removed the pin of my pallu and threw it somewhere and removed my pallu and it cascaded on the floor and then he laid his head on the middle of my breast and I started caressing his hair.

'You love laying on me, right?' I asked and he looked at me.

'Yes. I feel like a kid when I lay on you and you caress my hair,' he said as he again looked at me and kissed the middle of my breast.

He got down and kissed my stomach and went towards my navel and licked it.

'Kabir! What are you doing?' I shouted as it felt awkward.

'What? Sorry, if I had crossed the line,' he said and got up and I also got up.

'All this is so odd,' I said as I wore my pallu.

'Odd? Loving my girlfriend is odd?' he asked.

'Before marriage, all this seems odd,' I said.

'Marriage?' He was shocked.

'Sorry. We are not even together for a week and I am talking about marriage and that too when you don't believe in marriage,' I said.

'I am so lucky to have you. I have seen so many couples who are not married booking our hotel room and here my girlfriend wants to wait till marriage. Baby, if I can love you after fighting all my inner battles, then I will marry you,' he said.

'It's just that we have to wait for some time before marriage and don't worry, if you want, I will not have sex with you till our marriage but you became shocked as if you don't know anything,' he continued and I finally decided to tell him the truth as I realized I cannot hide it from him anymore.

'I am still a virgin. Sohum had never touched me,' I told him and he looked at me as if I have grown two horns on my head.
