《The Tales of love- I》7.2:"Partner"

to run an errand he wanted to be in university with her. His presence doesn't allow anyone to throw comments at her that was something that he doesn't like. He had seen how her father reacted and just how broken she was.
He felt guilty.
No matter what, it was his doing that had caused her so much. He shouldn't have done what his father said but he had no option but to do it.
He sighs.
He hated his father politics his views were filled with racism and dictatorship. Someone like him doesn't need to handle the affair of the country. On the other hand, he had secretly admired and cheered her father on. He was a real man who deserves the position.
He was bored sitting in this meeting doing absolutely nothing. He looked around bored and his friend signals him something which he didn't catch until he looked at his father glaring at him.
He sighs.
He walked away from the meeting when he saw a man his age talking to his father. He heads home just as he entered he saw people looking at something and talking among themselves. He looked at the study window and a figure sitting there. It took him a minute to realise it was his wife shouting at the men looking at her angrily he ran away his body heated with anger as he strolled towards the study.
He entered inside to find her working on the laptop with chocolates in her hands as she munched on it completely oblivious to the anger he was feeling. He walked closer but she didn't even move he holds her hand making her stand in front of him.
She yelped at the sudden action holding her laptop and chocolate in one hand tightly. She looked at Kabir looking down at her a little annoyed. Kabir pulled her with him sitting on the couch in the study.
"Sit here when you are in the study". He stated
She frowned but shrugged, "Acha (ok)".
She looked at her laptop resuming her work and eating.

"What are you doing?". He asked sitting in front of her admiring her
She shrugged, "Assignment".
He looked at her confused, "Assignment?. We had one?".
She looked at him nodding, "Yes, we do".
His eyes widen, "Shit, I haven't done a thing. You have to help me".
She smiled, "Don't worry we have to submit in a week".
"Great! I will bring my laptop". He said running away
She started eating her chips placing her chocolate wrapper in a dustbin continuing her work. He walked inside taking a seat in front of her as she guided him through the assignment.
Once they were done she looked at him curiously and he noticed, "What?"
"I was wondering who had the power to make you angry?". She said very curiously
He raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?".
She bites her lip, "Ah, I mean they would think of death before upsetting you so I wanted to know who was that amazing human".
He shakes his head, "No one and you do talk back to me too".
"I didn't upset you, ever". She said softly
"There are about 2 people who can live after angering me". He replied
She looked at him at pure curiosity, "Who?. I want to meet them".
He smiled, "You want to meet father?".
Her smile fell she moved back as she realised how close they were.
"No, I think I am good". She said sighing tiredly sitting on the couch
The next day, she walked with him to her classes. Once she sat down she saw a message from her friend calling her in the canteen urgently. She missed the class before the teacher could see her and walked to the canteen a little worried.
"What happened?". She asked
"We have been so worried lately I think we need to relax". Her friend said grinning
That's how she ended on the street food corner she would come when she bunk for a day. She loves outing with her especially that involved food. She took her phone to text her husband but before she could her friend snatched it taking it away.

She sighs.
But, just as she saw the first stall of food she immediately forgets everything else.
He had been looking all over the university for her while trying to reach her phone. His friend had been trying too but no one knows where she is. The fear of losing her was gripping him every second that passes by. What if him bringing her in this life had caused her harm?.
That had him on the edge as one of his friends was tracking her phone number. Fortunately, the phone was on and once he had the location he took his car with his friend driving at a fast speed reaching the place. It was until now that he didn't realise that it was a food corner.
He looked around for a minute but then stopped when he found her a little away from him laughing with her friend while she eats gol gappa. Her laughter had his heart flutter he stopped his friend to reach her because he didn't want her to be tensed again which she had been for a long time.
"You like her". His friend said looking at him and her
He frowned looking at his friend, "No, I don't".
"Yes, you do. I have been with you for long, brother, I know the way you looked at her even before marriage. I know you were sad the whole time she was to marry someone else and you jumped at your father suggestion because you wanted to have her beside the other reason. Now, you were searching like crazy for her like she was your life. So, you do like her maybe even love". His friend said
He didn't say anything looking at her smiling at something her friend said and a little blush covering her cheeks had his heart skip a beat. He didn't realise he was smiling until his smile fell when he saw a man approaching them specifically her. He looked at her and he saw how she stepped behind her friends not even speaking to him.
"You are a beautiful". The unknown man said
She hides behind her friend not liking his words or gaze on her.
"Leave. She doesn't want to speak to you". Her friend said angrily
"Come on, we can just walk and talk". He suggested ignoring her friends
She shakes her head at his words not wanting to speak to him.
"No one has to know we can just enjoy around here and get to know each other". He suggested taking a step closer to her while she takes one back
She feels someone wrapping around her waist at first she panicked but she relaxed when she saw it was her husband and she hides behind him now a little relaxed.
"What are you eating, biwi (wife)?". He asked smiling at him
His friend stands behind him and saw the unknown man pale at his words.
"Gol Gappa?". She said softly because she was caught by her husband bunking her classes
The unknown man ran away afraid of him.
Kabir stepped away from her enticing scent, "Oh, you are?".
She could feel his teasing tone even their friend left them. She bites her lips nervously with a slight blush covering her cheeks.
"Jee (yes)?". She said softly, "Do you want to eat too?".
He decided it was best to not tease her instead enjoy the time with her. So, they both started enjoying their time laughing at times forgetting everything. The day ended, they walked back home and he went to his friends while she went to sleep.
"So, did you find who that man was?". He asked
"No, but don't you think he looks familiar?". His friend asked showing his picture
He thought for a moment where he had seen it until it clicked.
"I know who he is and if I am right I know what he was doing". He said as anger filled his senses,"GET HIM"
