Naina smiled and feeling relieved finally knowing that at least Sameer is not like others who played with the dignity of women's... even though he hates her but still respect her and their relation...

She went towards closet area to change her dress for office when realize gold kangan in her wrist, "ab kisase puchhu ki voh kaun the... jab tak unke baare mein pata nahin chal jaata yeh kangan sambhal kar rakh leti hun... kabhi kabhi lagta hai yeh ghar ek mistry hai... pata nahin kaun kahaan kya karta hai, kya sochta hai..." she laughed slowly as since her first day in his house she faced so many mysterious things and weird behavior of the people... and now her new friend who got disappeared after giving her strength and determination to fight against all odds...

She kept the kangan back in her bag and quickly picking up a fresh set of clothes, went to change... getting dressed up she left for office... reaching office in an hour she prepared his coffee and ordered some sandwiches for him... while packing her own lunch at home, she heard from servants that he didn't had his breakfast at home.... naturally, after she accused him for such a ruthless act, he must have left with no appetite... she knocked at his cabin door and went inside...

Keeping coffee mug with his breakfast on his table she stood there... he looked at breakfast and said in his usual rude tone, "what's this...?"

Holding her smile she replied softly, "usually people called it breakfast..."

He frowned more on her answer and shouts, "who asked you to get this... I don't want anything..." he was hurt of her accusation to think so bad about him...

Knowing his reason of anger, she remains calm and replied, "you didn't say but with empty stomach, coffee can affect your health... I know I don't have any right to say all this but being your assistant it's my duty to take care of all your needs... I am just doing my duty... it's all comes under my responsibility... truly professional... nothing personal..." she said with a firm voice with no expressions...

He glared her and rolled his wheelchair coming to her side... she shivered slightly with his intense gaze but remain stood there... she knew he is hurt because she wrongly accused him again... she wants to apologize as last time also in hospital she did the same and didn't even get chance to say sorry... this time she is more adamant to not to leave any misunderstanding created between them... at least not from her side...

She was all lost in her thought how to apologize, when he came close to her and pulled her suddenly, resulted her fall in his lap... the back of her head was pressed down and then everything went dark... her soft lips were blocked by Sameer's... the instant she fell, she reflexively placed her hand holding his broad shoulders tightly... Naina did not react for a long time... Sameer kissed her over and over again... he vented out all his anger, frustration and somehow his helplessness for not able to save her...

Since the day before, he had seen her coming out from Sunaina's studio, he was eager to take her in his arms... she was looking breathtaking and it was getting difficult for him to control himself... followed by Rocky's incident and her teary face... her swollen eyes, shattered condition... he wants to apologize and clear this misunderstanding but till late night she stays in bathroom to avoid facing him and lastly she accused him for being a part of such a cruel act...

Naina remained in his arms like a lifeless person... she let him kiss her like a storm over whelmed her... after a long time seeing her breathless, he parted away keeping his head on hers... he whispered to her in his husky voice giving shiver to her spine, "I know you hate me but don't ever said this to me... you are my wife not a thing... understood..." though he was angry on her but his tone was soft as ever...

Naina was speechless... he again kissed her... but why she was not feeling bad this time... she was shocked and shy, and her body slowly turned soft, just like a feather under his overbearing kiss... she keep looking at his face so closely... their faces were very close to each other, their breathes intertwining... she could see the deep, bottomless pain clearly displayed in his eyes...

Naina lowered her eyes feeling shy... his hot breath on her face creating havoc inside her... Sameer again bent slightly his head and kissed her lips, gently touching them said slowly, "I am sorry... I really didn't mean to happen all this..." this time his voice was as gentle as breeze... he was genuinely feeling regret...

Their trance broke with a sudden knock on the door... their heartbeat faster when they heard and realized their surrounding... they are in his cabin and Naina is sitting in his lap relaxedly...

Naina hurriedly stood but trembled and fall back on him keeping her hand on his chest.... he quickly holds her from shoulder to support... realizing her position she stood slowly and stand few steps away... there was an awkward silence in the room prevailed...

Soon Pandit barge inside and stopped seeing them both together in front of each other but in a silence...

Sameer's eyes were glued on her whereas she was looking down avoiding their gaze on her...

Pandit somehow realized what's going on and quickly turned to go out, "sorry... I think I disturb you both..." he said suppressing his laughter seeing their red turned faces...

Sameer's expression changed all of a sudden and he stared him furiously, "shut up..."

Naina feeling embarrassed left the cabin looking down without seeing any of them...

Pandit came to him with a teasing smile, "sorry... next time I will not disturb your moment... if you want can I put a Don't Disturb board outside..."

Sameer scowled slightly and said in a low voice, "don't you have any other work... if not tell me I will assign you some more work rather than using your pea size brain..." seeing him back in his usual way Pandit remained silent but smiled naughtily...

Seeing him still smiling naughtily Sameer murmured cursing him, "useless... ek bed tak toh theek se offer kiya nahin gaya aur ab aa gaya disturb karne... iska time aane do tab bataunga..." Pandit giggled hearing his taunts and left leaving his sulking friend alone..

Naina coming back to her seat, to control her uneven breath took a cold glass of water and gulped in one go, "mein toh maafi maangane gayi thi par yeh sab... hum alag hone wale hai aur aaj ek dusre ke itane kareeb... par aaj unka chhuna mujhe bura kyun nahin laga... kyun maine unhein ek baar bhi nahin roka... kya aaj meri wajah se voh dukhi the ya meri baatein unke dil ko chubhi... pehli baar unki itni gehri aankhon mein ek khamoshi thi, ek udaasi, akelapan... jaise kitna dard chhupa hua ho..."

"kabhi kisi ke itne kareeb nahin gayi mein... par voh mere pati hai, chaahe kuchh mahine ke liye hi sahi... kya unke kareeb jaana galat hai..? kuchh samajh nahin aa raha yeh sab kya ho raha hai... pehli baar koi hai jiske sirf paas hone ke ehsaas se ek apnapan sa feel hota hai... maine sirf unka gussa dekha hai toh phir yeh ek ajeeb, ek naya sa ehsaas kyun ho raha hai, jaisa pehle kabhi nahin hua mujhe... kisase puchhu kuchh samajh nahin aa raha...

Kal jab Rocky ne mera haath pakda toh apne se ghinn aa rahi thi, phir aaj aisa kyun nahin hua... hamesha unhone mujhe bura bhala kaha hai, mera dil dukhaya hai, phir chah kar bhi unse nafarat kyun nahin kar paa rahi mein.... aaj pehli baar unhone sorry kaha... aur mein buddhu unse maafi bhi nahin maang paayi... dil toh aaj maine bhi dukhaya unka.. jo gunaah unhone nahin kiya uski saza dena chahti thi... unhein chhod kar jaana chahti thi... par aaj ek ajnabi ne mujhe galti karne se rok liya... kya sach mein hamare rishtey mein koi ummid baaki hai... aaj pehli baar unhone mujhe apni wife kaha... kya yeh bhagwan ka koi ishaara hai..." a cute smile spread on her face...

To avoid all weird thoughts in her mind, she tried concentrating on her work... even Sameer too didn't call her in cabin later to avoid any embarrassment for them... he just want to apologize her but suddenly loose his control and kissed her again... she was smiling feeling shy... he fascinated recalling her cute innocent shy face and her smile... first time because of him... but felt strange that why she didn't oppose him kissing her today like last time... does she also have some feelings in her heart...?

मेरे सीने से लिपटे रहते हैं, तेरी यादें और एहसास तेरे,

जैसे लिखावट कोई लिपटी हो, किताबी पन्नों से

Naina was busy in her work when seeing lunch time she stood to go downstairs at canteen... suddenly her phone ring... she picked happily seeing Kamya on other line... they greet each other when Kamya said, "Naina, mujhe tujhko kuchh batana hai... abhi mil sakti hai... mein tere office ke paas hi hoon..." Naina sensing matter bit serious agreed to meet her as it's lunch time... she doesn't need permission to go out...

Naina went down in a nearby restaurant and see Kamya was waiting for her... they quickly order for their lunch when Naina asked getting worried, "Kamya... itna kya urgent tha... tu mujhe thodi pareshaan lag rahi hai... kuchh hua hai kya..."

Kamya hit on her head slightly, "idiot, mein toh tere kaam mein busy thi aur tujhe kuchh hosh hi nahin hai... bhool gayi tu ne mujhe kya kaam diya tha..."

Naina looked him surprisingly when Kamya said, "dekh meri baat dhyaan se sun... maine pata kiya hai uss clinic ke baare mein jahaan tu gayi thi uss raat ko... shayad humein hamare sawalon ke jawaab mil jaaye..."

Naina gets nervous when Kamya hold her hand, "dekh ghabra mat... uss area mein mandir ke paas saara residential area hai... isiliye clinic jyaada nahin hai... toh aasani se pata chal gaya..."

Naina holding her breathe looked at her with some hopes when Kamya said, "vaise toh unmein se koi bhi clinic raat mein nahin khulta aur patiens ko admit bhi nahin karte until its emergency... par us road par thodi dur ek chhota sa hospital hai... jahaan raat ko kabhi kabhi patients ko admit bhi karte hai aur staff bhi hota hai..."

She continued, "it's not for any particular disease or illness... basically Doctors are using it for surgeries only... like jin doctors ke koi surgery set up clinic nahin hote voh yahaan OT hire karte hai... which has all the medical facilities available... usually jo doctor iss shahar ke nahin hote or if someone wants to keep it some kind of secret... tu samajh rahi hai na mera matlab..."

Naina asked worriedly, "toh humein kaise pata chalege ki uss aat vahaan kaun Doctor tha, kaun staff tha... aur mere saath kya hua vahaan..."

Kamya taking a deep breath said, "dekh vahaan par har tareeke ke procedures and surgeries ke intjaam hai... vaise vahaan jo bhi hota hai sab legal hai... par ab uss raat vahaan kaun tha aur tere saath kya hua yeh pata karna mushkil hai kyunki voh kisi bhi Doctor aur patient ki details aasani se reveal nahin karte... agar hum Police ki help le toh kaam ban sakta hai shayad..."

Naina think worriedly, "nahin yeh galat hoga... Sameerji ka iss shahar mein bohot naam hai... agar mera naam saamne aaya toh unhein pata chal jayega... mein kya jawaab dungi in sab ka..."

She hold Kamya's hand, "nahin, tu aisa kuchh mat karna... agar pata lagna hoga toh theek hai par hum Police ke paas nahin jaa sakte... aur mujhe jab kuchh yaad hi nahin toh kaise yakeen dilwayenge ki yeh vahi hospital hai... we don't have any proof... right.. aur hum kaise yakeen karein ki mere saath jo bhi hua hai voh usi hospital mein hua hai... yeh ek ittefaq bhi toh ho sakta hai...."

Kamya agreed to her and said, "may be you are correct but let's give a try... dekh maine na uss clinic ki andar se kuchh pictures li hai... mein vahaan consultation ke bahane se gayi thi... tu dekh kar bata agar tujhe kuchh yaad aata hai toh... shayad kuchh clue hi mil jaaye humein..."

Kamya switch on her mobile but got irritated seeing battery gone... Naina calm her down, "koi baat nahin... tu ghar jaakar mujhe pics bhej dena, mein dekh lungi... chal mein ab chalti hun... lunch time bhi over ho gaya hai..."

Kamya nodded and they both left... whole day spent like this... Naina lost in her thoughts of the information given by Kamya....

What if she will able to find the mystery of her pregnancy?

How will she explain to Sameer and her own family?

Is she really wanted to know who is the father of this child?

After completing all her work, she wrapped up her table but turned to see Sameer and Pandit going towards the conference room... she was surprised as no such meeting was scheduled for him at this time... but leaving her thoughts aside, she stood to go when Pandit came to her, "Ms Agarwal, voh Jindal Industries wali file chahiye..." she realized the seriousness in his voice and asked, "anything serious..."

Pandit replied, "there's an urgent meeting called from Board of Directors.." he turned to go when she asked suddenly, "can I also join please.." he looked at her confusingly but finally agreed to bring her ... they both went inside conference room seeing all Board of Directors with Vishakha and Karthik were seated there...

Sameer frowned seeing her there and asked rudely in low voice, "why did you come here...?" but before she replied Vishakha said loudly, "great, now when everyone is here so let's start the meeting..." she said angrily looking at Sameer and Naina...

The meeting was about Sameer's sudden decision of cancelling the upcoming project with Jindal Industries... all were shocked to his decision and opposed to him... lots of discussion and arguments starts...

Naina feels bad for him as because of her a huge venture has been cancelled and now everyone is questioning him... but he seems very calm and relax making her more confused...

Finally, after listening all, Sameer said loudly in a firm tone, "well... I know ki Maheshwari group of companies ke liye kya sahi hai aur kya galat... since past five years all my decisions always prove fruitful for company and its growth... so just trust me on my intelligence and wait till my next announcement... I am sure I will not let you down..." all got silent seeing his confidence and accept his statement except Vishakha and few others... she looked at him fiercely and left the conference room followed by Karthik...

Naina followed Sameer and think to apologize him and say thanks but he gave her no time to talk and left out from conference room... realizing it's too late and completely dark outside, she quickly wrapped her table and left... most of the staff were already left... she was waiting for lift when turned her back to see Sameer was coming out from his cabin with Pandit... she had left with no courage to face him anymore after what all happened in his cabin in morning and added to that meeting... but seeing no other option she took the same lift with them...

Reaching at ground floor she moved out immediately before Pandit tried to stop her and offered to go back with them.... she reached at the exit gate when her mobile beeped... she saw Kamya has sent the pictures... she opened the gallery nervously... keeping her focus on screen she stepped ahead and got her leg twisted slightly...

She sits on the footpath outside building, pressing her feet to reduce pain when a car stops in front of her... she heard a familiar loud voice, "what happen? why are you sitting there..." she lifts her face seeing Sameer looking at her direction while sitting in car...

Pandit came out hurriedly from driving seat and asked, "come... we are also going home... will go together..."

She denied politely, "no... it's okay... I will manage... it's just a slight sprain..."

Sameer giving a death glare said loudly, "sit inside... don't create a scene here..."

She shivered on his loud tone... Pandit with a pleading look on his face, opened the door of backseat and with slight pain she took few steps and sit inside the car..." she relieved realizing Sameer was sitting in front on passenger seat next to Pandit... seems they were busy in some discussion...

She said slowly, "thanks for your concern but..."

Sameer's cold tone cut her in between, "I didn't do any favor.... agli baar agar girna ho toh mere office ke saamne mat girna... it's so disgusting that how easily you find reasons to disgrace my name in public..."

Pandit looked at him strangely as few minutes back he was concerned seeing her in pain and now talking so rudely with her... a totally confused character... doesn't want to show his soft side to her...

Naina sits quietly at back seat as no use to argue with him... getting relief in pain and tired with whole day working, she keeps her eyes closed and drift into sleep... it was already very late at night....

Pandit was driving on a lonely road followed by another car of their guards... they were slowly discussing some office matters when suddenly he put the brake seeing big stones lying at the center of the road blocking their way...

Pandit turned to look at Sameer, sensing some danger... he pulled out his licensed revolver from dashboard, "don't come out... stay inside..." he said looking out as their guards already came out from their car and starts removing the stones from the road to make a way...

Sameer replied getting concerned for him, "be careful..." he turned his gaze on back seat seeing her sleeping peacefully... Pandit gets down looking around in all directions as suspected something serious... it seems like a planned robbery or kind of attack but no one was seen... suddenly a loud sound of gunshot attract their attention...

Naina opened her eyes with a jerk hearing loud voices... she looked outside seeing Pandit and his guards were shooting at some direction... she turned to see Sameer who was dialing someone's number... tension was evident on his face.... she realized they were alone in car and it seems an attack on Sameer...

Since he cannot drive, she gets more worried about his safety... Sameer turned to see her awaked and said loudly, "stay inside..." she looked at him and suddenly opened the door and went out...

Sameer shouts on her when she came ahead and opened the driving side of car and sit inside... the moment she sits Sameer scold her, "are you crazy... bola tha na ki baahar mat nikalna...."

She hissed in pain but suppress her voice and replied coolly, "voh.. humein yahaan se nikalna hoga... I can drive... trust me..." before he replied, she ignited the car and drive them out from there in lightning speed... she drives as fast as possible, making a way between the few stones still lying on the road...

Sameer shocked seeing her so much concerned for him... for his safety... he keenly looked at her face finding it bit strange, a little confused at her expressions... he gradually realized that something was amiss... she was breathing rapidly like suppressing her pain...

He asked suddenly getting concerned for her, "are you okay..." she turned her face towards him with a faint smile, "hmmm... don't worry about me..." Sameer looked at the rare view mirror realizing no one was chasing them, a big relief...

She keeps driving for around few kilometers when Sameer's phone buzzed... talking to Pandit he gave him their location... he told her, "stop the car at road side... Pandit is coming behind us... there is no danger now..."

She nodded her head and park the car at corner of the road... Sameer surprised to see her changing expression immediately... her eyes lids were getting heavy struggling to remain open... her face was covered with the cold sweat as she must be enduring pain for so long... he realized she was clutching tightly her right arm suppressing her pain with her left hand...

He asked concernedly keeping his hand on her shoulder, "what happened... you alright?"

She looked at him with damp eyes... she tried to speak but her voice chocked due to severe pain... suddenly she faints hitting her head on the steering...

Sameer pulled her towards him holding her from shoulder... he feels some wetness on her shoulder and realized she got shot on her right arm... her arm was bleeding profoundly... he patted on her cheek to keep her awake getting panicked, "damn it... idiot, open your eyes... bohot shok hai bravery dikhane ka..." getting the water from bottle he sprinkle on her face but she didn't respond...

Then only Pandit knocked on their window... shifting slightly towards door, he unlocked the door and let Pandit come inside.... unbuckled her seat belt he pulled her in his lap and Pandit took the driver seat...

Pandit shocked to see blood on her arm and Sameer's hand... before he asked, Sameer shouts, "drive to hospital... fast..." Pandit ignite the car, drive rashly breaking all red lights to reach hospital, followed by their guards in other car...

Sameer pulled out her dupatta from her neck and tied it on her arm tightly to stop bleeding but of no use... he keep calling her name and patting on her cheek to keep her awake but she didn't respond at all... lying lifeless in his arms...

Next update very soon... till then enjoy and stay safe
