“NO, You can’t do that,” she looked at him with sudden deep sorrow mixed with anger in her eyes, Tazz was shocked, not knowing how to react, wondering what happened to have caused this change in her feelings towards this island, he tried to touch her cheeks to calm her down, but she pushed his hand away, like a stubborn little kid
“No, No, NO,” she shouted, “I want to go see them now,”
Tazz picked a plate and readied it for Maya, he served some steamed rice and some lentils along with fried vegetables, he spooned a portion and extended it towards Maya, feeding her, she simply looked away again, a big pout formed on her face.
Tazz exhaled a sharp breath, “Maya, I said no means no, I don’t like repeating myself, now be a good girl and eat,” he held his extended arm like that
On their way back, Tazz kept stealing glances at Maya who remained quiet , she was overwhelmed with all that happened in the last few hours, suddenly she had a family, a nephew, a brother in law who was more like her brother, a set of elderlies who called her their daughter, it was like all of a sudden she had everyone, she had a home and she didn’t want to leave them and go away, she wanted to spend some more time with them, make and collect some more memories with them, she wanted to be with Little Tiger, she was happy that Tama had a brother and unlike her and Mahira's useless brothers, this brother of Tama would protect her. She felt happy that Mahira was still alive in that little kid.She felt a lump form in her throat and it pained, she had this urge to cry again, the more she controlled those tears the more it pained. She had found this treasure suddenly only because of her little dove, her Mahira. S
that’s when she froze as her gaze went to the bed.Sonia’s bare shoulders and slight bit of mounds of her breasts were exposed from the black satin duvet that she lay beneath. She was in deep slumber, a reddish purple bruise at the side of her neck and above chest glared into Maya’s eyes, Maya looked around , the dining table had 2 glasses of champagne, a finished bottle, some chocolate sauce and strawberries on a platter, cloths strewn across the floor, she caught a glimpse of black and red satin bra and lingeries thrown recklessly across the couch.Tazz’s shirt lay next to them and his pants were on floor at the foot of the bed, she remembered that he’d worn them yesterdayThe phone in Maya’s hand slipped and fell to ground, waking Sonia
Dear Readers, This chapter onwards we shall refer to Maya again as Mahira to avoid any confusions .When Mahira entered the Jindal tower, she looked exhausted, the journey back was exceptionally tiring, or maybe she missed the comfort of being around Tazz, she couldn’t sleep a wink , neither on the cruise nor when she reached home all exhausted. The house seemed to haunt her with the little sweet and sour memories that Tazz made with her in that one night stay he had at her house. She remembered how he looked overjoyed when she had prepared his favourite breakfast, then her heart cracked a bit as she remembered his request on the cruise, he wanted her to make him his favourite Paratha for breakfast till they returned.Putting her thoughts aside she went to the kitchen to get a glass of water for herself, placing the glass back on the kitchen table, s
"Oh Mahi!, How I wish it was untrue, but all this is for true my dear, they played you up, fooled you and so now I think you should put your foot down and fight to get that show of yours back to you, you cannot let your audiences be left at the hands of such despicable people who might give the callers some cheap, fake advice,"Mahira snorted a small smile, 'put my foot down !! for whom? for what ? for a show, Julie was kind to think about those callers and audiences who didn't even know me and vice versa, while here I am, ambushed by the very people whom I trusted , people whom I counted close to my heart were the very ones who had assaulted my heart, be it Tazz her love or Sam her friend, well, thankfully he was not a close friend like Ana or Mak,' she thought ruefully, she'd be devastated if it would have been them."Mahi, Mahi," Julie shook her gently, "It's okay, you
Sonia had a brilliant idea flash through her mind“Er.. Well, Miss Mahira, its okay if you want to quit, that’s entirely your decision, but I hope that we haven’t done anything to offend you, I hope you’re not upset with me till now,” she pretended to be concerned“No, absolutely not Miss Sonia, that’s not why I’m quitting, as I said I have some personal matters to look into in emergency, hence I have no option but to quit ,”“Oh I see, then who am I to stop you, you must go ahead and handle your issues right now, but Mahira, I hope you remember that you have signed a contract and you might be penalised for leaving without serving a notice period,” Sonia reminded her, “ and knowing Tazz, the way you left the island truly angered him, you never know, he may be t
Mahira somehow managed to drift by the day, she was not into her work hundred percent today, her mind had so many things going on. The fact that Tazz had not even bothered to call her to find out the reason she left, or even to yell back at her, was not helping either, she somehow regretted her haste in deciding to leave the island in such a huff, was it finally over between her and Tazz, like.. not that there was officially something going on between them, but the way they were interacting the last few days, and Tazz's behaviour towards her had sparked a small hope in some corner of her heart, but even then, she knew it would never happen, them being together could never work till the time that man is around, she still had to know his relation to Tazz, or why did he do what he did. Her mind was jerked back to reality before she was just about to drown in her mental miseries as her phone buzzed“Mahi, you&rs
Tazz picked up his phone and dialled a number"Manoj, have you reached?""Just landed sir,""Okay, keep me posted,"“Yes Sir,” Manoj hung up and stepped out of the airport, he felt his boss was weird at times, despite having such urgent matters to deal with in NY, he actually had sent Manoj back just to find out about Mahira and to keep an eye on her.Tazz hung up and walked to the window overlooking the streets of NY, he sighed, 'Why Maya ?, why did you do this?, why did you leave me, walk out on me again?, you shouldn't have done that Maya, you shouldn't have, I had just begun to settle down with the thought that I should let you go for what you did to me in past, but you have once again repeated the same
That night Mahira stayed at The Chans’s, her little granny named Tama gave her all sorts of lecturing on how she was careless and didn’t think beyond work and was not even taking good care of herself“Mommy, I’m so tired telling you again and again to look after yourself, don’t you get it, I have a full time school to attend, I have heavy and serious homework to deal with and then I have my weak friend’s matters to handle too, in all this my time is completely taken, if you fall sick then how will I manage to look after you, my schedule is really tight,” she crossed her arms across her chest and stood with a pout looking at a tipsy mommy who was looking down.“Now do you intend talking to me or no?” she asked again with the same cute angry look, replicating her mom when she gets angry with her.
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&
