Romance Shadows of Deceit and unspoken love
#2
After 10 minutes, Tarun reached their home. Since Priya was changing in her room, Kajol had to open the door and invite him in.
Tarun: "Hey, did you have a good sleep?" (asked casually)
Kajol: "Yes, I think you didn’t sleep properly." (noticing his tired look)
Tarun: "Never mind, it was a wonderful day last night. Thanks for joining the party." (smiling)
Kajol noticed his glance on her body but didn’t feel offended.
Once she settled him on the sofa, she asked for his choice of drink.
Tarun: "To be honest, a hot coffee will make my day."
Kajol: "Oh nice, you’re a coffee fan? I am too, but I don’t know the perfect blend."
Tarun: "Yeah, I make nice coffee. Can I help you?" (offering)
Kajol: "Why not?" Her excitement was evident as she accepted his offer.
Kajol stood beside Tarun while he blended the coffee powder. When he finally made the coffee, Kajol picked up her cup without showing the decency of offering it to the guest. She didn't feel guilty, as her mind was considering him more as her own person than a guest.
Oh, Kajol made you to make coffee? Priya asked ber when she found Tarun was the person made coffee with a playful wink.
Hey, I am happy that she offered her kitchen for me.

It was not just a coffee for Kajol. More than the taste and texture of the coffee, the way Tarun engaged her in each and every step, creating a sense of intimacy, made the coffee experience the best.

Priya: "Tarun, I am seeing Kajol giving space for someone to enter her life after a long time. She is quite impressed with you." (her open comment brought a shy smile to Kajol's face)
Kajol: "Tarun, ignore her words. She will say anything. Well, as a friend, I like the way you cared for me. But, I am a person who takes a little time to settle." (Kajol corrected her position with him)
Tarun: "Kajol, you don’t need to explain about Priya to me. Our relationship started years before."
Priya, who was sitting next to Tarun, turned towards him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
Priya: "Oh, my loving friend." (Though Kajol didn't mind Priya flirting with any men, she couldn’t digest it in the same fashion)
As soon as Tarun finished the coffee,
Tarun: "Thank you, Kajol, for inviting me. If I could get into your list, I would be a very happy person." (hinting at his interest in her)
Kajol: "I will think about that or else, we will invite you when we plan to drink some wonder coffee" she replied in a playful tone.
Kajol and Priya stood at their door until Tarun entered the lift.
Priya: "Kajol, Tarun likes you for sure. I never see him eager to blend with women like he is making his attempt on you. Normally, he is a one-night stand person."
Kajol: "Priya, you don’t have any other topic?" (sounding exasperated)
Priya: "I see a good life with him for you. As far as I know him, he will be a good husband for you. I don’t like your stupid boyfriend Sachin." (speaking bluntly)
If it had been anyone other than Priya, Kajol would have replied nicely, but Priya's words didn’t come out as random allegations. She knew most parts of Kajol's life and the conceptual differences between Sachin and her.
When Kajol recollected Priya's comment about Tarun being a one-night stander, she wondered why she didn't feel any negative emotions. She doubted whether her mind was also adapting to a lifestyle like Priya's, who considered sex as a mode of enjoyment and didn't care about who was with her in bed. Kajol's thoughts were conflicted, as she questioned her own feelings and the potential changes in her perspective on relationships and intimacy.
As the exams approached, Kajol's concentration shifted to her studies. She became busy with college and work for the next week, leaving little time to think about other activities. Only a few topics of conflicting interest came up during her conversations with Sachin, often ending in small arguments. Despite the occasional tension, Kajol remained focused on her academic responsibilities, determined to excel in her exams.
Priya had invited Kajol to travel with her, but due to the official nature of the trip, Kajol decided not to go. On Saturday, after attending a special class at college, Kajol went to the shopping mall to buy foodstuffs. As she walked through the aisles, lost in thought, she was surprised to see Tarun appear in front of her.
Tarun: "Oh!!! You often come to this place?"
Kajol: "No, this is my first time."
Tarun: "I am so lucky," he replied.
Kajol smiled. She knew that if his words were genuine, he was lucky because there was no chance of meeting her at this place otherwise.
Kajol: "Is this your regular place?" she asked.
Tarun: "No."
Kajol: "How come you are here?"
Tarun: "This morning, someone told me to come to this place so that I could meet a beautiful lady. That's why I came," he replied.
Kajol: "Very funny," she expressed her disappointment at his attempt at cracking a sick joke.
Kajol and Tarun continued their shopping together. As soon as they finished billing their items, Tarun took all the bags.
Kajol: "Tarun, I can manage by myself."
Tarun: "No way, I won't miss any chance to impress you."
Kajol wanted to tell him that she was already impressed with him, but watching his small attempts to make her happy made it interesting for her to stand as an observer.
Until he dropped her in front of her apartment, Kajol didn't have any plans to invite him in. But the moment she felt something significant walking away, she found herself inviting him inside.
Tarun: "What time will Priya come back from the office?" he asked as he saw Kajol opening the door.
Kajol: "She is not in town," she replied.
Tarun: "Oh!!"
As soon as they entered, Tarun asked, "Can I get another chance to impress you with a coffee?"
Kajol: "Tarun, today will be my chance," she replied.
Tarun: "Ok, boss," his reply brought a smile to her face.

She didn't feel offended when Tarun joined her in the kitchen. Once again, her eyes took a pause on his attire. The tight t-shirt was giving a perfect view of his muscular body. The elegance of his dress combination made him even more handsome. She also enjoyed Tarun's glances at her, feeling a mix of pride and a hint of playful vanity. Their shared moments in the kitchen, filled with casual conversation and mutual appreciation, created a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Kajol couldn't help but smile as she prepared the coffee, realizing how much she enjoyed his company.

Tarun: "Kajol, what are your plans after higher studies?"
When Kajol shared her thoughts with Tarun, the way he paid attention and offered insightful remarks, as well as shared his views, made her feel very comfortable. This was the first time Kajol felt so positive after sharing her dreams and thoughts about the future. She had decided not to compare him with Sachin, but she couldn't help noticing that Tarun seemed like a much better man. She didn't need to think of the reasons; it just felt right. His attentiveness, genuine interest, and ability to make her feel understood and appreciated created a sense of ease and connection that she hadn't experienced before.

What are you up to? I mean in terms of business? Kajol asked.
Tarun: I run an agency that grooms models and provides them with casting opportunities. The major part of my business, however, is import and export. I met Priya through agency.

The nature of his profession, which involves being around beautiful girls, brought a worry to Kajol's heart. She wondered why this tension arose and why her heart started beating faster when she thought about it. Kajol was beginning to realize that her feelings for Tarun might be deeper than she had initially thought.

What is your plan for today? You don’t feel bored at home ? Tarun asked.
Kajol understood the route where he heading but to hear from his mouth she asked like stupid.
No plan. Just sit at home and get bored.
Tarun: "I can't sit alone. I get bored when I'm at home. I go home only to sleep."
Kajol: "Why don't you get married? That way, someone will be waiting for you at home too," she said in a playful tone, her eyes twinkling with mischief.
Tarun: "Hey, I don't want to marry a girl who just waits for me at home. I'm looking for a partner who can be together with me." He looked deeply into her eyes, his voice softening, "Hope, I can find someone like that."

Kajol's heart skipped a beat at his sincere words. Though she meant to tease him, his reply changed the entire context. Kajol had never heard such a warm gesture and thought about a partner. She smiled shyly, feeling a warmth spread through her.
Her case was further complicated, as she wanted to explain everything to Sachin. Yet, in that moment, she couldn't help but think that the girl who marries Tarun would be very lucky.

Tarun: "Kajol, I think I need to move," he said softly.
Kajol was enjoying his company, and the news of his sudden departure brought a wave of disappointment.
Kajol: "Oh, do you really have to go?" she asked, her voice tinged with sadness.
Tarun: "Kajol, honestly, I decided to leave not because I wanted to, but because I needed to. Honestly speaking, I love you and wish to make you a part of my journey. I've earned your friendship, but if I sit with you any longer, I'm afraid I might lose you."
Kajol went silent for a moment, unsure of how to respond. The sincerity in Tarun's words and the intensity of his love reached the core of her decision-making spot. It created a conflict of interest due to its sudden entry. Her mind was racing with thoughts and emotions, struggling to process the unexpected confession. She knew this moment could change everything between them, and she needed to gather her thoughts before responding. Tarun's gaze remained steady, his eyes filled with hope and vulnerability. Kajol felt the weight of his emotions and realized the significance of his words. She took a deep breath, trying to steady her racing heart, and met his eyes with a soft, yet determined look.

Tarun moved closer to her.

Tarun: "Kajol, I know my thoughts are selfish, but life has always given me surprises." His eyes remained locked on her during the conversation.
Kajol found it difficult to hide the treachery in her eyes about her feelings towards him, but her emotions reflected like a bright sun in her eyes. She could sense the depth of his words and the sincerity behind them, making it hard to mask her own growing feelings for him.
Tarun noticed the flicker of emotions in her eyes and gently took her hand. "Kajol, I want you to know that my feelings for you are real. I don't want to rush you, but I needed to be honest with you. My heart is telling me that you love me as much as I love you."
Kajol didn't realize that the gap between them had narrowed down to just an inch. Her breath hitched as the proximity intensified the emotions swirling inside her.

Kajol, I wish you understand my love.
Kajol: "Tarun, I wish I could. But if I do that, I will never forgive myself. All the effort and fight I made at home will become a joke."
Kajol's words made Tarun withdraw from his move. He looked at her with understanding and a gentle smile.
Tarun: "Hey, I respect your decision," he replied in a happy tone.
Kajol: Tarun, I have very limited friends. I wish, you will be friend for ever.
Tarun: You can count on me.
Kajol felt a sense of relief after seeing the calm and cheerful face of Tarun. She knew she had feelings for him, but at the same time, Sachin was also important to her. The conflict in her heart was difficult to resolve, but knowing that Tarun respected her decision made her feel more at ease.

"Suddenly, his phone started ringing. He disconnected the initial call but answered it the second time. Kajol noticed the tension on his face as he spoke.
'Is everything okay?' Kajol asked after the call ended.

Tarun replied, 'Everything's alright. There's an emergency, and I need to go. Hey, I'll call you once my work is done. We can have dinner together.'"
When Tarun said this, Kajol agreed happily, feeling excited about spending more time with him.

There was no hesitation in Kajol when she hugged him before he left. When he finally departed, she felt emptiness as if someone had left her alone. She couldn't deny that the hug was truly fulfilling. The warmth of his body and the strength of his hands brought a joyful feeling to her body, something she had never experienced with Sachin. Kajol wondered whether a hug could be so welcoming and able to fulfill the wishes of a woman's heart and body.

Kajol waited for his call by keeping her phone besides her. Disappoint reached the peak when she didn’t get the call from him till 8 Pm. When she left the hope and decided to prepare for her dinner, her mobile started to ring.

Kajol answered Tarun's call with an attitude of mild dislike in her tone.
Kajol: "Hello dear, it seems you're making me angry again."
Tarun: "I hate to disappoint you again. One of my employees got into an accident and was admitted to the hospital. I'm with him now, and my phone was in my car. That's why I'm calling late."
"Kajol's anger vanished in an instant.
Kajol: 'How is he?' Her worries were reflected in her tone.
Tarun: "He's still not out of danger. Do you want me to order you food online? I'm really sorry," Tarun asked, his voice filled with concern.

Kajol: "Come on, Tarun. Honestly, I was disappointed, but now I feel happy and proud to have a good friend like you. Your presence is more required there, and you did the right thing. Be with him. I started cooking. You know, because I was thinking about eat outside, I didn't cook anything earlier. Now, I'm starving," Kajol said in a funny tone.
Both laughed, the tension between them easing.

Tarun: "Hey, the hospital staffs are calling me. I need to go. I will call when things get settled here." With that, Tarun disconnected the phone.

A staff member came near to Tarun and took him to a corner.
Staff: "Hello, Tarun Sir. It is a bullet wound. The new doctor is not ready to operate without reporting to the security officer."
Tarun took a bundle of money and handed it over to him. "You know how to handle this. Do it for me. Tell him about the consequences of denying it.," he said with a determined look.
The staff collected the money and went inside the doctor's cabin. After a few moments, he returned and gave a positive sign to Tarun before leaving.

Tarun took the phone and dialled someone. The person at other end attended to call.

Staff: "Sir, we are searching for the bags. It seems someone took them. I don’t think this is an accident. Someone purposefully hit him for the bags."
Tarun: "Ok."
Staff: "Sir, has he woken up?"
Tarun: "No, he is still under sedation. Who could be behind this? If they created the accident for our bag, someone from our side must have leaked the information."
Staff: "Sir, Are you coming here?"
Tarun: "Let him get operated on and take the bullets out. The operation hasn’t started yet." Before disconnecting the phone, he instructed, "Search for the bags. There's 1 crore worth of goods inside. The value of money is not my problem. The stuff inside it is my concern. Hope it will not fall into the wrong hands.

Once the situation in the hospital was under control, Tarun left and joined the search party. His phone rang again, and he answered the call.
Caller: "Tarun, you are a newcomer to this market. I warned you to keep away from my area. Don’t waste your time searching for your stuff. It is safe in my custody. Consider this as my compensation for the loss you made."

The call from Bella made him stop the search.

Tarun: "Bella, we never crossed our line so far, and you broke that. There is no area defined for anyone, and everyone is selling as per demand. I am not responsible for your stuff not selling because of its low quality. This move was a wrong step. I will make you regret this mistake," he threatened over the call.

Bella cut the call with a mocking laugh, leaving Tarun feeling both angered and determined.
When Tarun was thinking about the source of the information leak, he received a message from Kajol.
Kajol: Hey, how is your staff?
Tarun: He is fine now. Shifted to a room.
Kajol felt a sense of relief knowing that Tarun was handling the situation well. She admired his dedication and care for his staff.
Kajol: Are you still at the hospital?
Tarun: Yes, his family is from the Far East. No one is there for his support. Due to the late hour, I didn’t call any other staff for his support.
Kajol's admiration for Tarun grew as she read his message. His selflessness and sense of responsibility touched her heart.
Kajol: Had dinner?
Tarun: No, I am not feeling hungry. You?
Kajol: Yes.
Tarun: What was special today?
Kajol: Nothing special. I made baingan bharta and roti.
Tarun: Oh, don’t make me lick my lips. That’s my favorite dish.
Kajol: Is it? Come tomorrow. We will have lunch together.
Tarun: I will let you know tomorrow. I am scared to break another promise.
Kajol smiled, feeling a warm admiration for Tarun. She appreciated his honesty and sincerity.

Once the Tarun chat with Kajol got end, he dialled Athira's number.

Athira: "Hello, Sir. How are you?"
Tarun: "You will get picked up in half an hour."
Athira: "Tarun, it is late to come out from the hostel."
Tarun: "Do I need to teach you how to come out?" When Tarun asked this, she didn’t reply.
When Tarun's men took her to different spot, she got nervous. It was a godown setup area. But when she found Tarun, her fear vanished.
Athira: "Why did you bring me to this place?" she asked.
Tarun didn’t give any answer. Instead, he led her to a room inside the go down.
He guided her to a bed inside the cabin. As soon as she sat on bed, he held her hair.
When she looked at his eyes, she felt afraid by the change.
Tarun: "Open your phone lock and give it to me."
The lustful mood of Athira changed to fear as she realized the seriousness of the situation.
When Tarun shouted, a man entered the room. Check the call and contact list with our data base.
Athira: "What is this, Tarun? You are hurting me," she said in a semi-angry tone, but her voice contained an unknown fear and wavered.
Suck it, When he commanded, Athira brought his dick out and started to blow.
Staff: "Sir, she has the contact of Bella’s companion in her phone. All call history is deleted."
When Tarun heard the information, he grabbed her tightly and started to fuck her mouth with intense force and speed. Athira tried to take her mouth back but he cum inside her throat.
The sound of difficulty in swallowing due to lack of breath came from her mouth, a desperate "clup clup" escaping as she struggled.
Tarun: "Boys, she is yours," he said to his men and left the cabin.
Athira: "They made me do it by threatening me," she tried to explain her situation desperately.
Tarun: "You could have told me this before you spied on me," he said, his voice filled with anger and disappointment.
Athira found Tarun leaving the place without paying attention to her words.
She tried to run, but one of the men brought a syringe and injected her with drugs. Her movements slowed, and she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her as the effects of the injection took hold.

Athira could feel her legs are getting wide and the man is entering on top. She handled his dick on her pussy but when it started to tear her as hole, she screamed.

Bastard, fuck me at my pussy.
The final word she remembered was a mocking laugh, echoing in her mind as she slipped into unconsciousness.
Though Tarun reached home with the satisfaction of finding the leak, his mind remained unsettled. It was the first time an incident had occurred due to his mistake, and the weight of it gnawed at him. The real reason for his fear comes outside when the call from his boss landed.
Big Boss: "Tarun, I believe that you didn’t do this purposefully, but there will be no second chance."
Tarun: "Yes, sir, I understand."
Big Boss: "Make sure, the girl pay for her mistake?"
Tarun: "I will sir."
Tarun wanted to tell him that he would settle the loss caused by his mistake, but he didn’t dare to quote a price to the big boss of the industry. The weight of the situation pressed heavily on his shoulders, and he knew that he had to prove his reliability and regain the trust that had been shaken.

As he lay in bed, Kajol's face came to mind. Her smile, her words, and the warmth she brought him gave him a moment of solace. Slowly, he drifted into sleep."
