Mahira leaned her head back on his chest, sighing, ‘was this it?, was this the moment of truth where she’d have to let Tazz know everything?, would he be able to bear the brunt of this bitter truth?,’ whatever it was, she knew now there was no escape, she had let her tongue slip and now she had to face him.
Taking a deep breath she turned around and looked up into his eyes, there was hope and relief, joy and anticipation floating in them
“Tazz, I am..,”
“Bro,” suddenly a crisp voice interfered
Both turned to look at a panting Anuj followed by Ana and Mak
“Bro, this is so unfair, you left us all behind and came to this place alone, what did we do to be given this kind of a treatment?” he sulked
The calm blue water broke into ripples as Sonia jumped into the pool, swimming gracefully like a beautiful mermaid, she made a few dips and splashes before heading to other end where Tejraj sat, smoking his favourite Montecristo cigar“You do know that even if its less dangerous then a cigarette, cigar still causes cancer,” she plopped her elbows up on the edge next to his beach chairTejraj straightened himself up and bent forward towards her, giving her a graceful smile“Cancer !! to me.., my little bottle of wine, I’m the one that scares all, nothing scares me,” he tapped the tip of her nose“A-ha, but I’m not scared of you,” she looked at him and smiled like a little kitty“Aren’t you n
Bewildered beyond belief, Tazz looked at Navin in disbelief, ‘This piece of human shit was Maya’s elder brother, the one who should be protecting the girls was actually the one causing destruction,’ He believed he had seen all and done all in life till date, met all kinds of worst people, seen all sorts of crimes yet he never once thought that he would ever in his life, come across a d*ckhead who wanted to sleep with his blood sister, wanted to sell her and had criminal intentions towards her “I.. I’m sorry, I..please forgive me,” Navin was so petrified at the murderous look in Tazz’s eye that he forgot the pain he was going through because of his injuries Tazz took off the gloves slowly and tossed it to the bin in disgust, he sanitised his hands from the bottle by the bed, sat back la
“SORRY, “ he yelled and she flinched“Did you mean S-O-R-R-Y, is that it, is that all you have to say,”His hand moved to the table near them, picking up the glass vase, he bought it before her face, then dropped it to the floor, crashing it, a few fragments flew and hit Mahira’s feet, causing it to bleed“Oops!, Sorry about that, but that’s not all to my Bro’s story... there’s more,” he bought his face close to her and glared right into her eyes***“Mr. Jindal, I do..don’t know everything, I don’t know where is Maya, the last I heard was that she was getting married to some rich guy, I have always lived away from home, Mahira had already taken the PR for Singapore and ha
Mahira felt like she was hit by lightening, yes it was true that she did not intend to live with Tazz, It was true that she had returned this time to seek revenge for what she thought he had done to her six months back, but now that she learnt the truth about all that Tazz had endured, though her miseries and trauma were stil bigger than his, they were not in any kind of competition here.Now she didn’t want to leave, but wanted to stay back and help him heal his heart from all the pain she had caused him for no fault of his.She wanted to kiss and seal the wound that was left open in his heart the first time she abandoned him at the wedding and she wanted to heal her wounds as well in the process.“Anuj, I can’t le..,”“I know you can’t, you don’t
Mahira stood aghast as she looked at the silouhette of the man, her heart skipped a beat“Tazz,” her heart jumped in joy that he’d come, she felt happy that she could get a glimpse of him before she left him for good, the bridge behind them had been burnt so bad that they were simply irreparable She walked towards the helipad looking up, though she couldn’t get a clear glimpse, she could make out from afar that it was Tazz. Her vision blurred with tears of joy as he finally reached her deck and walked towards her, she ran and threw herself in his arms“You came, Oh God!, I can’t believe it,” she sobbed, “You came,” she clung on to him and sobbed. “I thought I would never see you again, I love you, love you so much, I love you lots, I love you infinitely, forever,” s
By the time the cruise neared the Island it was almost noon. TJ and Mahira sat on the deck the entire night, he spoke while she listened to his story, finally getting answer to the most pressing question she'd always had in her mind each time she looked at TJ“Don’t give me that look, I hate it,” his tone was cold yet sounded exhausted when he looked into her eyes that conveyed pity for him“I’m not pitying you, how can I, despite all that you endured you have achieved so much, you are a self made man, strong, powerful and in command of what you want,”He looked pleased with her words of praise for him and smiled“Do you not find anything wrong with my intentions?,” he searched her eyesMahira looked a
“Oh Tazz,”Sonia’s eyes sparkled with infinite joy as she looked at how beautifully the room was decorated, Jake gestured her to walk in, Tazz, who stood with his back to her was staring out of the large french window, one hand in his pocket and other held a smokeShe ran to him quickly covering the distance between them across the room and hugged him from the back“Oh Tazz, finally... finally you’re making the right decision, I’ve waited so long for this night,” she spoke softly as her face rested on his backTazz turned around and gazed into her eyes“Of’course, I had to do this, better late than never,” his lips curled into a one sided smi
“That is a top secret Tazz, I can’t tell you that.. but I’ll give you a hint, the person is someone you know closely and love too,”“C’mon Sonia, we have already shared so much, what’s with this name, speak it out,”“Nope.. I can’t, cannot..I won’t,ha ha, keep guessing.. ha ha ha ha,” she slurred while speaking then laughed happily"Vrr, Vrr, Vrrroooom, Oh Tazz I'm flying up in sky..vrrroooommmm,"Tazz twitched his lips, drunk woman can't make out difference between driving and flying sounds“Vrroo...T..Tazz, lets not waste time talking anymore, I’m hot, take me and make me your’s tonight,”Sonia was beginning to
Maya tried hard to punch and kick him, but he was too strong for her, she felt repulsed as he tried to push open her lips with the force of his tongue, when she stood her ground firm he left her lips and glared at herLooking at the dangerous look in his red eyes, she regretted not having let Tazz come with her now, he was right, She shouldn’t have trusted TJ“Why.. can’t I kiss my bride to be?,” his breath reeked of whisky and she turned her face away in disgust“It should be done particularly now that my woman is lost in the thoughts of another man,” he sneered close to her face“We are not getting married, even if I would have wanted to , after what you did just now, I will never marry you,” She turned her face to look at him straight in his eyes, his jaw twitched and it was clear that he held back from unleashing the beast within“You have lost my trust and my respect for good TJ,” she looked into his eyes while he didn’t move, still glaring at her,“Just.. just stop for God’s sak
Now this really was news to him"Mahira was married to Petnovak!!," Tazz was totally taken aback, how fate plays a major role in people's lives, he just realised it, of all the places and projects he had to choose from, he zeroed in on this Island project, when he suddenly decided to get Maya on this project, his intention was purely to keep her close to him, but fate was playing at getting her closer to her family“Yes, and since these tribals have a unique magical way to bind souls and mates, when Mahira was killed, Petnovak and Little Tiger froze in a soul entanglement vortex, that night, Mahira communicated through me with her husband and child, somehow cutting off the bond so that they could continue to live,”Tazz was taken aback“Do such things really happen?”
Back in Singapore:“Anuj, I don’t understand, it’s been a few days and Tazz isn’t back, who do you think will be responsible for the losses incurred in business, how can he be so irresponsible,”Jairaj, Tazz and Anuj’s father had received a call by Tejraj informing that Tazz has not been concentrating on the business and some board of directors have been complaining about a new island project the company has over taken at a magnanimous amount“Dad, trust me, Bro has everything in control, there’s nothing wrong at the office here, I don’t understand who keeps giving you such misinformations,” Anuj turned to glare at Tejraj who sat leisurely on Tazz’s chair and read a newspaper“I don’t know anything, find that wast
It seemed like several seasons had passed by as the two lovers cozied up in each other’s arms, Tazz leaned his back on his car and she had the back of her head on his chest. The sun had set and the breeze had cooled down long back.Tazz held her firmly against his chest, finally he got to know what he wanted to, finally she admitted that she was his Maya, finally the game of cop and thief was over and all the misunderstandings had resolved, all but one..Who was that man who lay such a dangerous game of chess for them all, who went to the extent of raping and killing Mahira just to threaten Maya from going ahead with this wedding and whose motive was so big to have planned and schemed so wellHe truly wanted to dig more but stopped as soon as he sensed her discomfort, he cursed himself for being impatient when he felt her go
“Mahira is no more,”she looked straight ahead into nowhere in particular, her face was hard, eyes cold and stony, a whiff of strong breeze hit Tazz as the impact of her words set upon himHe felt engulfed in her pain for a moment as a look of deep sadness spread to her eyes“What happened?,”Mahira abruptly turned to look at Tazz, her face scrunched up in fury, her eyes shot daggers at Tazz and he stood aghast wondering why was she looking at him like he was the cause of her deathThen suddenly her face eased up, her eyes flickered and she looked away as tears brimmed up. She remembered Anuj’s words, all that happened to Tazz, he too was a victim just like her so why was she shooting daggers at him when the culprit is
‘Dear Nature, what is it that you play at, separated by misfortune but united by fortune,’Tazz looked at Mahira’s face coloured with shock and smiled, placing his left hand over the steering lazily, he looked straight ahead“She is adorable, cute, intelligent and a very wise kid, completely like me, a perfect miniature of me” he sounded proudHe continued to look afar with eyes that had pride in them, as if he could see her tottering around or walking towards him, then he looked down and smiled, shaking his head in disbelief“We have a strong bond between us right from the first time we met, she an...,”“When was the first time you met her?,” Mahira interrupted him, still unable to deal with thi
The vip room was dimly lit, loud music blared in the background and the neon red blue lights shone from the rotating disco ball across the room. A soft hand unbuttoned the shirt on the man’s body, he had drunk quite a bit and smiled as she slid her delicate fair and soft hand inside the shirt, caressing his chest, then moving to play with his nips, pinching them gently“Oh you naughty girl,” he laughed as he grabbed her hand and placed it on the belt of his pants, then he grabbed her hand again and rubbed it against his cr*tch“Ah! you are ready for me,” she mewled in her soft kitten like voice and quickly unbelted him, the man hungrily tugged at her blouse, pulling it off her head and grabbing her breast with one hand.She half lay on the couch, bent on her knees she took his erection into her moist w
Mahira froze momentarily and applied breaks abruptly as one of the RollsRoyce came to a sudden halt right in front of her car, her heart almost stopped beating for a moment in fear.The sharp blazing sun light hit her through the front glass, blinding her momentarily, however no sooner had she regained herself, she was overtaken with a rising sense of panic.She vaguely saw someone alight from the RollsRoyce that had blocked her path and walk towards her, she blinked several times but her eyes could only see spots of black dots because of the sun. The man took slow deliberate steps towards her, soon reaching her car he knocked on the window“Hey, It wasn’t my fault, it was you who stopped your car without any warning,” Mahira yelled without sliding the window down, blinking repeatedly to ease her sight back, but t
Mahira disconnected the phone when there was no response from the other end. Tama was still crying aloud“baby what’s wrong, why are you crying?,” Mahira panicked “Aaaa...waaaaaa...,” she kept going at it“Mommy I don’t want you to marry uncle,” she spoke in between sobs“Please mommy, please..waaaaaaa,” Mahira’s heart felt squeezed as she saw tears stain Tama's cheeks, wiping the tears from her face Mahira quickly held her close to her heart, she could not let this marriage happen without Tama’s consent, it was important that Tama accepts TJ, she took in a deep breath“Okay Tama.. baby.. listen to me, listen to Mama,”Tama&
