41~ A Family Man
The plane landed smoothly. Kabir groaned making a face. He turned his head and saw Monica unbuckling the seat belt. She looked at him and smiled.
'What happened?' She enquired adjusting her orange Tee. Kabir extended his hand and held her hand. He kissed the back of her palm. She blinked at him.
'I am going to miss you.' He confessed. She moved her hand away.
'Sure.' – she leaned and kissed his cheek, - 'We will meet, tonight.' She winked at him. Kabir smiled.
'I would love to, darling but I can't.' – Monica frowned but Kabir went on, - 'Kavita and Naren want me to spend time with them.' He said and smiled. Monica sighed and nodded. Then, she rose from her seat. Kabir got up and stepped aside. He took out her handbag and his laptop bag from the overhead compartment and handed her the handbag. She took it and walked past him. Kabir sighed. At times he wondered why he was bothering with this woman. Clearly, she has zero-bit interest in him but then he thinks about the advantages, excellent sex and no strings- attached. He adjusted his coat and followed Monica out of the plane.
****************************
Since they were business class they got their luggage soon. The cameraman and crew got their luggage next. Kabir and Monica had gone for a modeling assignment to Australia and amidst that, they had some fun and alone time of their own.
Soon, they were done and walked out of the airport. Monica unzipped her handbag and took out her sunglasses. She wore them and flipped her short hair. Kabir stood beside her and looked around. He sighed.
'Where is that fool?' He asked taking out his phone. He opened his contact and was about to call him when someone called, and he looked up.
'Hello, sir!'
'Where were you, Eshaan?' He asked eyeing him. Eshaan smiled. Like always in these three years, Monica felt uncomfortable in Eshaan's presence.
And the way, he always ignored her made the matter worse. Like always, he pretended like she wasn't visible.
'Sir, I will take your luggage.' Eshaan smiled and clenched Kabir's trolley bag. Kabir nodded placing his phone to his ear. He walked front. Monica pushed her trolley towards Eshaan. He glared at her and she simply flipped her hair haughtily. Eshaan ignored her and dragged Kabir's bag with him. Monica's jaw dropped. She felt offended.
I don't know why I bother with this man – She rolled her eyes. Then, she clenched the handle of the trolley and dragged it with her. On the way, she kept cursing her manager.
************************
They walked to the parking lot and a man in his mid-thirties appeared out of nowhere and right at Monica's face. She jumped on the spot.
'Ramsen,' – She sighed placing her palm on her chest, - 'You scared me.' She said and glared at Ramsen, her manager.
'Sorry-sorry-Maam.' Ramsen apologized while adjusting his thick-rimmed black glasses. Then, he gestured towards her trolley.
'Take it.' Monica replied haughtily and walked past him. Ramsen muttered under his breath as he followed her. A driver awaited her with the car. He leaned against the car and was reading a newspaper. Monica folded her arms and cleared her throat. The driver unfolded the newspaper and hurriedly opened the door for Monica.
'Ramsen, place the bags in the back bonnet.' She ordered him.
'Yes-yes, ma'am.' He replied. She walked towards the car and sat inside. Then the driver closed the door.
***********************
Kavita waited excitedly for her husband to return. She kept pacing outside the main door and glancing towards the drive away. It has been more than an hour she was waiting and finally, a bright smile appeared on her face upon seeing Kabir's Royal Royce enter the driveway. Quickly, she adjusted the Pallu of her Kanchivaram saree on her shoulder and the gajra around her bun. She smiled widely as she watched the driver climb down and open the back door. Then, Kabir got down. He looked up and found his wife. He smiled and waved his hand. Kavita had tears in her eyes. She pulled up her saree little and ran. She climbed down the small fleet of stairs and ran towards him. Kabir smiled opening his arms. Kavita ran into his arms and wrapped her arms around his waist.
She broke down in his arms. Kabir shook his hand and wrapped his arms tightly around her.
'There, there. Kavita, love, why are you crying.' He said caressing her hair.
'I-missed-you.' She cried in his embrace.
Eshaan also had gotten down. He looked at them and felt very bad for Kavita. But he knew he was helpless. If he spoke against Kabir, he will be kicked out of his job. But that is secondary. Firstly, Kavita will not believe him as she blindly trusts her husband. Eshaan sighed and forced a smile.
'Hi, Kavita Maam.' He called. Kabir and Kavita brought apart. Kavita sniffed and looked at him.
She smiled back. 'Hi, Eshaan.'
Kabir placed his arm around her and she looked at him.
'Where is Naren?' Kabir asked looking at his wife. Kavita nodded.
'He is inside.' She said happily and turned around. Kabir and Eshaan followed her. Eshaan kept dragging the luggage with him.
'Naren, Naren. Come out, honey. Look who is here.' She called. Kabir looked intently. Within some time, a small boy peeped from behind the plush sofa. He blinked cutely.
'Naren.' Kabir smiled and kneeled. He opened his arm. Eshaan watched the child coming out from behind the sofa. He looked at Kabir and then smiled a toothy smile and yelled happily.
'Papa!' He opened his arms and ran. He ran as fast as his little legs took him. Kabir had tears in his eyes as he hugged his son. Naren wrapped his small arms around his father and rested his chin on his shoulder.
'Papa.' He whispered. Kabir leaned back and kissed his son's cheek.
'How are you my bacha?' He asked looking at his son lovingly. Naren pouted and hugged him again.
'I was missing you, Papa.' He sniffed and Kabir realized he was crying. He separated their frames and held his son's face.
'No, my son won't cry.' – He shook his head, - 'My boy is a strong boy and always remember,' -He wiped his tears, - 'boys don't cry, okay?' He advised. Naren nodded.
'But, Papa even you have tears in your eyes.' The kid pointed at his moist eyes. Kabir was speechless for a second. But he smiled and kissed his forehead.
Kavita smiled watching the father-son duo. Eshaan also felt emotional seeing the reunion but at the same time once again he started to worry, worry about the future. So far Kabir has hidden his affairs but what when his secrets come out? Eshaan looked at Kavita. She will be shattered. Then, he looked at Naren. The poor kid will lose belief in superheroes and father.
Eshaan wished Kabir realizes this before he loses everything, forever...
