Kabir's POV

I am sitting in my cabin and thinking about her.

Nobody ever left the place before me and that too in the middle of a conversation with me.

I have seen many girls due to my line of operation.

Girls who were ready to give everything to me.

And yet, I am after a girl who is married and happy with her husband.

Sh!t kabir !

What are you doing?

Why are you after her?

What do you want from her?

I don't know about anything other than the fact that I just want to spend more and more time with her.

I never felt like this in my thirty years of existence.

The door knocked breaking me out of my thoughts and Mr. Raut came inside.

"Sir, this week's report," he said as he handed me the file and left the cabin.

Kavya's POV

After having lunch, now I am roaming around in a nearby garden to clear my mind.

From the day I met kabir, my mind has become messed up.

Why does he want my number?

What does he want from me?

And why is he always talking about my husband?

For me, he is just a guardian but what am I for him?

From today I will make sure to walk away even if I see him on the streets.

He is not good for my mind.

All my peace flew out of the window from the day I met him.

"Your time is up," I said as the bell rang.

Today I took their English surprise test.

And now I am collecting all their sheets.

My next period is off so I will be able to check at least half of the papers as now Aashika will arrive to take their Maths class.

Aashika takes their Maths and science subject and Nita takes their Hindi and Environment class.

This school is till class twelve but juniors are on other side of the building and seniors are on the other side.

As I am cheking papers in the staffroom, Nita came and sat beside me.

"Your period is off?" I asked.

"Yes," she said and I went back to correcting the papers.

"Have you ever thought of marrying for the second time?" she asked suddenly and I looked at her.

"Why are you asking me this question now?" I asked.

"I feel sad whenever I look at you, I mean you are young, and you have to hide every wish and desire in your heart because you lost your husband at such an early age," she said.

"For you, I am lucky as I don't have in-laws, right?" I asked and chuckled.

"I say that when I am angry on them but truthfully I feel very bad for you," she said.

"Sohum is always with me. I don't want anybody. Eight months spent with him were the best months of my life," I said and again went back to checking the papers.

And, she came to know I don't want to talk about him.

Her mobile rang but she cut the call.

"Again fought with your husband?" I asked.

"Yes," she said and I shrugged.

"Relationship are like that only. Sometimes we love, sometimes we get angry. Sometimes we get so angry that we don't want to see each other faces and some days we are so in love that we don't want to leave each other. You and your husband also must have fought and made up a lot, right?" she asked but a call came and she excused herself.

Me and Sohum never fought.

I have never seen him angry. We were always enjoying our life together.

I have also never ever got angry on him.

The school bell rang bringing me out of my thoughts and I went to teach another class.

*****

The school ended and I was waiting with my class on the ground.

Everybody came and was taking their kids.

I smiled looking at kids with their mother.

I wish I also had a child of my own.

Our child.

Child of Sohum and me.

But it will never happen now.

Child who would have his perfect nose, and my eyes which Sohum liked the most about me.

"Your eyes has that innocence which is rare to find now a days."

I remembered his compliment and a smile came onto my lips.

"Good afternoon," a familiar voice cut me out of my thoughts and I looked at Kabir standing in front of me.

He said as he showed me Raj's escort card.

"Good afternoon," I greeted him and after that I bid Raj goodbye.

He is early today.

They both left and I was waiting for all the kids to leave.

He didn't say anything?

Good!

I should be happy he didnt say anything.

Yes.

I am happy.

In fifteen minutes everybody left and I bid our security guard, goodbye and walked out of the school.

"Sir please, I have not eaten anything from the morning," a man who is almost in his forty's was begging Kabir.

"Leave! How many times I told you to leave," he shouted.

"Leave before I loose my control. Crazy beggars," he said as he closed the window and the beggar left.

"Wait," I said to the beggar and walked towards him, took out my purse and gave him 50 rs.

"I am sorry if the words of that man hurt you," I said looking at Kabir to see him talking with someone on his mobile.

"That sir is very nice," he said.

"What?" I asked.

"He asked me that I am so fit, yet why am I still begging? And he offered me a job in the restaurant as a cleaner," he said making me look surprised.

"What?" I asked and was too shocked to say anything.

"Yes, but sometimes my hands start shaking shake if I work too much and then I could not work for months, so I would apply for jobs, but everybody kicked me out after few months when my hands starts shaking. That's why I started begging. I can't even show to doctor as I have no money," he told me.

"Work at the hotel then," I said.

"I am scared to work in such a big hotel. I know everyone will look at me differently when my hands will start to shake and that's why when he offered me a job I paid no heed to it and was still begging to him which made him so angry," he told me.

"He is a very nice person," he said and looked at him and smiled.

"Please work there. Please," I pleaded and asked him to follow me and knocked on the window.

He was shocked to see me with the man and came out of the car and I told him his health condition.

"Don't worry. I will make sure you show a good doctor after you start working in the hotel," he said and I smiled.

Who is the real he?

The one who got angry and insulted a person by calling him 'crazy beggar' or is he someone who asked him to work in the hotel and even said that he will make sure that the person standing in front of him gets a good doctor.
