Infatuation? Love? Part 3

Her entire body was covered in sweat, but she was oblivious to it. She felt his lips on her ear, trailing down to her neck. There he started taking little bites, and biting it so gently that she started trembling. Her body was on fire she wanted him to go down with his mouth and continue the assault, but her tongue was knotted just like one knot in her stomach. There was a vibration next to her and in next instant she was wide awake and staring at the ceiling. Kajal looked at herself, she was soaked in her sweat and her breathing was hard as if she had run in a marathon. So unfortunately her dream was OVER and she was regretting it. She glanced at the mobile next to her, there was a message from her friend which had brought her out of the dream.

She climbed out of the bed, opened the window and stared at the moon. This was her favorite activity she just loved watching sky at nights. She sighed and closed her eyes, again that HOT image came in front of her eyes which she had just seen in her dream. She had this dream in variations since that kissing episode, and thank god, her parents had given her privacy while sleeping because her dreams always were too erotic. Kajal went to the kitchen and took a bottle of chilled water and sat on the French windows in the living room. Night was silent but silence had its own voice, there was no one on the street.

She drank from the bottle and started thinking. After the disaster with Karthik (thanks to Kaustubh), she had snipped at Komal, and felt guilty about it. Till the time she came back from washroom she was calm and in control. She apologized to Komal but in the meanwhile she was gone Rutesh had told them what Kaustubh had done. Same things were repeated to her about how she should give Karthik a chance, but Rutesh was looking at her with question in his eyes. She didn't want to answer that question, basically she didn't want to lie to Rutesh.

They had exchanged numbers promised to keep in touch and parted. Despite telling Naina to go to bed she was awake and then instead of going to sleep, Kajal waited told her the entire story. The way Kaustubh goofed up, also about Karthik coming and talking to her. Naina listened to the entire thing she never commented on anything. Finally, quite late, they went to sleep, as next day Kajal had to join the office. But now she was awake, she also remembered that Karthik had also taken her number. She knew in her heart that just because now Karthik knows that she had a crush on him, he would be interested in her. Karthik from the start was quite arrogant he was sure that he could get any girl. His girlfriends used to change every week, and he was proud about it. His girlfriends were all the same, with little variations as they all were model like slim and sexy to be sure.

Kajal still remembered the first time she had seen Karthik. Her second year in college had just started and she was going to the college. After she entered the bus she noticed a guy sitting alone at the end of the bus. He was tall good-looking and had mystery around him. She was hooked after that, as soon as she reached college she told all her friends and the best part was that he was in the same college as hers. Then the campaign had started her friends joined her, with all the connections she found out his name and his contact no. When all of this was happening, she started knowing Karthik, how arrogant he was and about his girlfriends also. Her crush was going thin but her friends didn't know that, hell she didn't know it. Till one day when she was going home, lost in her daydreams and a bike had hit her from behind.

She had fallen down on the road in her colony. {Just to mention she stayed in Air India colony as her daddy worked in Air India.} So while she fell down the biker went away and she had no choice but to curse him. She was hurt in her leg, scratched her arm, and also her palm. Hence she had difficulty in getting up she tried 3 times but failed. Till then she had started crying because of the frustration, suddenly she felt a hand helping her stand. Hand helping her was big and strong when she turned and saw the face she forgot all her injuries.

It was the most beautiful face made by god. Long face with beautiful chocolate-brown eyes, strong nose with a little dent. Strong chin and dark hair which came till his collar begging her to put her hands through it. He was wearing a red T-shirt with jeans and he had body to fit the jeans. She was staring at the guy, literally and she could see him flushing and then red color coming in his cheeks. He smiled at her and it was good thing he was holding her hand because she was damn sure she would melt and become a poodle at his feet.

"Hi, Are you Okay? Will you be able to walk?

"mmm... Yes" I managed to say.

Still he took my elbows and helped me walk, we both were silent for some time.

Then he broke the silence, "So, which building you stay?"

"aha, I stay at" I stammered, hell I could not remember my building no. Shit now what?

"You don't remember your building no.?" He asked amusement reflecting in his voice.

Maybe the amusement worked, but she stiffened. She didn't like to be a joke even for a good-looking guy.

So she straightened and said, "I know my building, Thank you very much. I will go myself."

"Hey, Look I didn't mean anything bad Okay? I'll drop you to your building." He replied

"I stay in building no. 9" She told him while walking. "I also stay in the same building" He sounded surprised.

"However we have just moved here, I stay at the ground floor. What about you?"

"Well, you are the new people in the building, my mom was telling me about you. Well we stay on the first floor." Kajal replied to him excited to go home and tell her friends about this encounter and coincidence.

They had reached the building gate, next to the entrance on both sides there were 2 flats. One of them was his.

He insisted on dropping her till her house as according to him she shouldn't be climbing stairs alone with her injured legs. She was happy about it, this way she had more time to know him. Till now she knew he also worked in Air India, and his name was Sujit Bakshi.

At her house she was inviting him inside but he was giving lame excuse that they had just moved and still had to unpacking. Listening to all this Kajal's mom came out, at 34 her mom looked younger and was still attractive. And Kajal knew that she never used anything on her skin.

"Hello, Kajal you should have told me you were bringing your friend with you, and why are you outside?"

"Mom, this is Sujit who has just moved in the ground floor flat and I hurt my leg so he just came to" She was stopped in-between, as her mom rushed and wanted to see the damage.

Kajal managed to calm down her mom and started thanking Sujit.

"Thank you Son, god knows what is wrong with this people on bikes. It is so dangerous nowadays." Mom continued.

They were interrupted as Sujit's cell was ringing. He answered it and the call was on for a short time. He turned to face mom "Well, I'll have to go"

"Yeah, we understand, but you come later to our house." Mom told him he said bye and turned to go and then again shouted, "Listen Sujit, Bring along your wife also next time"

Kajal couldn't hear anything else, her dream guy was MARRIED. She only could think that, she was stuck standing there.
