"do you have any idea what could happen to my son today....I was on verge of loosing him" smriti shouted while crying "What can I do in all this smriti ...Anay is so spoiled ....I wanted to rebuke him but you didn't even let me" Rajeshwar said" Yes!!!! Everyone is spoiled except your dear son Kabir..." Smriti said while turning her face to side in a angred toneWhat do you mean smriti...have you gone mad ???? Rajeshwar shouted in annoyance."Yes I have gone mad....Look raj , I only have Anay in my life...I can't loose him.... And you have no right to stress out my son more by your words...you have already done enough harm. Smrit said with tearful eyes.Rajeshwar got startled by Smriti's allegations."You have lost all the logics smriti... Just tell me what you want from me... Don't do this drama with me." Rajeshwar said in annoyance while taking a sip of his whiskey "I want you to give Anay what he wants " smriti said with firmness , wiping her tears ."Are you out of your mind smr
"you called me dad???" Kabir said taking the chair in front of him in his office.His father looked at him "Yes!!!! Actually Kabir... I have something very important to talk to you ...he said with a ting of hesitation."Kabir I have decided to give you the full ownership of Pinnacle exactly the way you wanted." He announced Ohhkaay!!!! Kabir said streching his words with creased eyebrows . He was surprised.His father took a berif pause and continued "But in return I want something from you ??" He said.Hearing this Kabir smiled "Now we are talking" he said shaking his head a bit...this is his father's signature style for him...give and take.Rajeshwar took a puff of cigarette and said "Look Kabir...you always wanted this right!!! so I am giving you everything...in return you just have to divorce Erica" he said casually.Kabir eyebrows raised in suprise "Excuse me....what did you say???" He said not believing his words .."Ohh... Don't look at me like that kabir ... it's not like a v
Kabir had a teasing laugh...which resulted in Erica to stare back at him "Do you think it's funny!!!" She said in annoyance."No... it's not like that..."Kabir made an amusing face......"I was thinking if I can't stop you , my sperm surely can. He Said with a teasing chuckle."So shameless kabir." Erica shakes her head in annoyance "Okay...now pack your bags we are going home' Kabir said stopping his laugh in a casual tone."I ...am... not... going... anywhere ..with.. you" she said streching every word with a solid stare."Look Erica it's our problem... don't drag the child in between ...and also on What ground you will get divorce from me Do I have force you , do I have any other woman in my life , have i done any sort of physical violence with you???No right!!!Infact you only slapped me that day.... He said in a innocent way."so practically there is no issue you have with me...plus you are bearing my child ...so by every means you have to get back to me." He said"Are you off
Days passed...Erica's behaviour remained same with Kabir distant and ignoring.... Apart from this she was happily talking with every other person.... ---------------------------------------------- All the family members were having dinner... Rajeshwar tried to break the ice between him and Kabir so he tried to talk to him... "Kabir ...I was thinki....!!" "Kabir didnt looked at him..... his eyes were fixed on Erica who was eating infront of him....she wasn't looking at him...but his entire attention was on her.... Rajeshwar noticed a different emotions in his eyes...it was not a soft and loving....it was something deep and maddening.....first time kabir is not having proper attention... Rajeshwar understood it's not something ordinary as he thought. As days passed Kabir eye's were always on Erica .... sometimes he even wanted to talk to her...but thinking may be she will get upset and it will bring unnecessary stress to her ...he didn't. One morning , Kabir was set to leave
Kabir was standing in the hospital ward, his back against the cool wall, arms folded across his chest. His gaze was fixed on the floor, the silence hanging heavy in the air.After a while, Erica stirred and slowly opened her eyes. She noticed Kabir's disheveled appearance - sleeves rolled up, shirt untucked, and his hair slightly tousled."Kabir!" Her voice was a mere whisper, and as he lifted his head, she saw his expression was unreadable, devoid of any emotion."Kabir... how is... how is my baby?" Her voice trembled with nervousness, fearing the answer she didn't want to hear."Everything is... is everything okay?" she struggled to confirm, her eyes welling up with tears.As he approached her, his lips tightened into a thin line. Slowly, he moved in close to her... he delicately took hold of her head and pulled her toward him. Her arms got wrapped around his waist as he held her close. Kabir delicately caressed her cheek with his palm."Kabir, why are you not saying anything? Tell
Kabir was getting ready for his office....since the miscarriage happened he is going to the office for a very less time...he stays mostly at home... though it was of no use because Erica rarely let him be around her...but still he was there all the time.Kabir was looking in the mirror wearing his watch. When Erica called him from behind she was seated on the bed propped up against the headboard ."Kabir!!!!!" She called slowly.He looks behind and their eyes meet."Because of my carelessness....we lost our baby....but you didn't say a word...you get angry on everything but you don't have any reaction for our baby....was it...was it not important to you Kabir???" Her voice falters as tears brim in her eyes....Kabir came near the bed and stood beside her....Erica looked up to his eyes...."You are important to me" He said wiping her tears with his thumb "it was an accident Erica....it wasn't your fault."he softly tucked her hair ....he bend a little and kissed her forehead softly ,
Erica stood at the terrace, her fingers wrapped tightly around the railing as she gazed out into the distance. Anay's footsteps approached slowly, and he came to stand beside her, making his presence known. She briefly glanced at him before turning her gaze back to the view."I am sorry for your loss, Erica," Anay began. He let out a sigh "I won't lie to you... your pregnancy was not good news for me. But still, I never wanted anything like that to happen to you."Erica remained silent, her expression unreadable."Actually, whatever happened was not for you, but for the man you are with. He definitely doesn't deserve a child. Maybe that's why God did this." "Can you just please shut up? I don't want to talk," Erica interjected, her voice tense."I know you have developed a soft corner for him," Anay continued. "I so wish I could tell you what he thinks about you and this relationship in which you are so invested.""Look Anay, I don't want your opinion on my marriage, okay? Whatever w
Kabir and Erica drove off towards home ....after an hour of driving Kabir stopped the car near a small tea place....he was having tea...Erica was also sitting taking the cup..Suddenly, a group of children approached, their eyes sparkling with excitement. "Didi, will you join us in making clay pots?" one of them asked, hopeful.Erica hesitated, biting her lip. "I don't know anything about it, baby," she replied, trying not to make them feel bad."Oh, come on, didi! It's easy! Look, so many people are trying!" they urged, gesturing enthusiastically.Erica glanced at Kabir, who encouraged her with a nod. With a deep breath, she joined the children, kneeling beside a small wheel. Kabir leaned back, enjoying his tea while watching her from a distance. The children guided her, their laughter filling the air as the clay began to take shape under her hands. A subtle smile blossomed on Erica's face, a rare spark of joy in her expression.A passerby approached Kabir, asking for directions by t
I was just beginning to drift into sleep when I felt Kabir shift behind me, his body pressing into mine. His arm snaked around my waist, and he started tracing his nose, down to my cheek, and then my neck. His breath was warm against my skin. “Kabir, stop…” I murmured, moving slightly away. “Tomorrow is Kavis’s exam. You know how stressed he gets—I have to wake up early.” “Yrr, he’s just a five-year-old kid. What stress you are talking about!! about.” Kabir groaned. “Erica, it’s been three months. Not even once…” His voice took on a pleading edge. “Please, baby.” I sighed, trying to keep my patience. “Kabir, please just sleep. Next week, pakka.” "Next week?" His voice darkened, and I felt him stiffen. A second later, he pulled away completely, turning his back toward me. I stared at his rigid shoulders, rolling my eyes. “Kabir… have you gotten angry?” I whispered, reaching out to hug him from behind. He didn’t respond, just tried to shake off my hands, but I didn’t let go. Eventu
After Anay returned home from the hospital, recovering from the bullet injury, Rajeshwar's fury knew no limits. In his eyes, Anay's betrayal was unforgivable-planning to murder Kabir was an act that shattered any hope of reconciliation. Enraged, Rajeshwar threw Anay out of the house, leaving him with nothing. Without a second glance at his family, Anay left in anger, seeking solace far away abroad, never once reaching out to even his mother, Smriti.Smriti, lost in the agony of losing her son, fell into a darkness she couldn't escape. The pain of separation consumed her, spiraling her into depression and anxiety. As the days passed, her health deteriorated rapidly. Her heart ached for the son who had become a stranger to her.Meanwhile, Kabir found joy in the soft glow of Erica's pregnancy. She was blossoming, her body slowly changing as the months went by, and Kabir, in his joy, became a pillar of care and concern. His protective nature over her was unwavering, but there was a kind o
The night spent on , each minute feeling like an eternity as she cried, the weight of Kabir's words pressing down on her like a suffocating blanket. She was terrified of losing him, terrified that the fragile bond they had built was on the verge of shattering.Erica buried her face in her hands, her fingers trembling as she recalled the pain in Kabir's eyes when he had spoken. The magnitude of what he had said loomed over her like a dark cloud, and she felt utterly lost. But amidst the despair, a flicker of resolve ignited within her. She wiped her tear-streaked face with the back of her hand, inhaling deeply to collect her strength. She couldn't let fear dictate her actions any longer.----------------------------------------------Next morning ------------------------Kabir stood under the shower, the water cascading over him, yesterday night was hard for him ....he was feeling so frustrated and vulnerable ..so much going on in his mind so much so that in a way he was trying to was
"You think I cheated on you?" His voice was low, hoarse, as if it had been a long time since he'd spoken the words. "I never needed to do that, Erica." He took a step forward, his gaze piercing hers. "If I wanted, I could have anyone I want. But I wasn't interested in anyone... apart from you."Erica stood frozen, her heart racing as she tried to make sense of the storm of emotions in his eyes. Her hands trembled at her sides, the weight of his words suffocating her."And if there had been someone else in my life," he continued, the bitterness in his tone cutting through the air, "I know you think I could trade anything for business, but the truth is, Erica... I would've never married you if I was having an affair. Never." His voice cracked slightly as the words fell from his lips, the rawness of his confession making her feel small, helpless."You know," Kabir's voice softened, a distant, painful memory creeping into his words, "My dad loved my mom, or so he always said. But he wasn
Erica's pov----------------I lay on the bed, my eyes fixed on Kabir's profile as he watched the movie . I had been waiting for what felt like an eternity for him to acknowledge my presence, but he didn't...my mind wandering to the tension between us.Slowly, I began to inch my way towards him, my movements deliberate and cautious. I didn't want to startle him, but I needed to break the silence that had been suffocating me for weeks. I slowly placed a hand on his torso, my face inches from his neck. I could feel the stiffness in his body, but he didn't say a word. He tried to remove my hand, but I held firm, my heart pounding in my chest.I leaned in, my nose touching his skin, and began to give him soft kisses near his ear while muttering "sorry" over and over again. I knew it was a risk, but I was desperate to reconnect with him, to make him see me, to hear me.Suddenly, Kabir's voice cut through the air, his tone firm but controlled. "Erica, stop it!" he saidI didn't back down.
Erica's pov ---------------------As I blinked awake, the familiar haze of sleep dissipated, revealing the stark emptiness beside me. Kabir hadn’t come to bed again, and the realization sent a surge of irritation through me. Just then, I caught sight of the relentless downpour outside. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and padded toward the balcony, the sound of rain drumming against the pavement growing louder with each step. The sky was in a shade of gray, heavy clouds swirling ominously, with flashes of lightning in between that illuminated the world for a split second. As I was watching A crack of thunder followed, sending a shiver down my spine, and I took a step back to inside, heart racing.I made my way downstairs so that I could ask for Kabir . As I descended the final few steps, I spotted him near the entrance, his hand resting on his waist, deep in conversation with the driver. Kabir’s expression was of an annoyance , his gaze fixed on the stormy landscape outside
Please vote and comment 💭⭐❤️----------------------------------------------Erica groggily sat up in bed, the sunlight streaming through the curtains piercing her eyes like tiny needles. She winced, pressing her palms against her temples, where a pounding headache throbbed with intensity.The memories of the previous night flickered in and out like a faulty light bulb. Just as she was beginning to calm herself, a soft knock interrupted her thoughts."Good morning, mam!" a cheerful voice chimed as the maid entered, a bright smile lighting up her face. She placed a tray on the bedside table with a gentle clatter.Erica squinted at the tray. "What is this? And where...where is Kabir?" she asked, her voice shaky as she examined the plate of toast and the glass of lemon water.The maid hesitated, glancing down at the floor as if searching for the right words. "Mam, sir went to the hotel site. He asked me to give you this lemon water. He also said to give you this medicine if your headach
The car pulled up to the bungalow parking lot, and Kabir stepped out from his side. As he reached the front of the vehicle, Erica hurried out as well and took hold of his hand. "Kabir, please listen to me! Just this once, baby... I’m begging you," she pleaded with a tone of urgency. "Erica, it's already very late at night , let me go and sleep please ," he replied, attempting to move ahead removing her hold but something made him pause. He glanced at her, his eyes narrowing. “Also, I’m very glad your ankle healed so fast,” he added, scratching the back of his ear while glancing at her injured ankle that had been sprained just moments earlier.Erica gaze dropped to her ankle, and she immediately attempt to lift it while feigning a wince of pain...ouch...no..no...it still hurts..He turned away, shaking his head as he walked towards the entrance of the bungalow. The sound of her voice trailed behind him, desperate and pleading. “Kabir! Kabirrrr! Kabir... stop and listen to me once!”But
The next night--------------------------Erica pushed open the door to her room, expecting the usual stillness of the space, but instead, she was met with the sound of rustling clothes and Kabir was standing there, his back to her and with precise movements of his hands he was combing his hair catched her attention. He was dressed in a sleek black shirt and jeans that fit him just right. every detail of his attair was perfect. She leaned against the doorframe, watching him in silence for a moment before stepping closer. "Are you going somewhere?" Erica’s voice was laced with curiosity, but Kabir didn’t even acknowledge her presence at first. His eyes remained focused on his reflection as he adjusted his shirt, then bent down to slide on his shoes, all the while whistling a carefree tune.Erica raised an eyebrow, the question lingering in the air. “Kabir, I’m askingyou… where are you going, dressing up like this?”Kabir didn’t answer Instead, he stood up, still whistling, as if he
