Aansuon Ki Dhoop Mein..
Koi Chal Raha Idhar

Aansuon Ki Dhoop Mein..
Koi Chal Raha Idhar

Keh Kaho Ki Chhav Mein
Koi Chal Raha Udhar

Koi Kisi Se Gum Hua
Koi Kisi Ko Mil Gaya
Koi Kisi Se Gum Hua
Koi Kisi Ko Mil Gaya

Humsafar To Hai Magar

One month has passed...

Its been running smooth...

Although no complaints as I have my angel next to me...

No!!!

Not Bela ....please 😏

Who cares about her!!!

I'm speaking about my lifeline...

My Musky...

She's beautiful 😍

Look at the way she's sleeping in that cradle of hers...

She loves the cradle...her little tingling chime hanging onto her cradle... She keeps giggling and laughing...

It makes my day 😍

Her presence her essence in my life is s blessing❤️

Musky's 1 month check up.was going to be in a few days from now because of the doctors and hospitals going on a strike it was delayed.

Bela...

Is there... Next door!

Yeah... We are ...not related!

We are neighbors yet strangers!

Husband and wife on papers!

That's all!

We are Musky's parents!

That's our only relationship! And we are happy like this.

She...is a good mother.

She takes care of Musky just like how Brinda would have took care...

We have our schedule divided for Musky's sake.

We go to office 6 hours everyday.

Mornings I go to office 8 am to 2 pm
Afternoon she goes from 2pm to 8pm
Rest of the time we manage work from home.

Although we stay in seperate houses ...
I know she's always there ...

For Musky.

At nights it's we keep her with us alternatively.

One night she is with me, other night with her.

This way we can manage our office work alternatively once in two days because we both are into business...requires us to extend.

We have hired a househelp Mrs Adiga...she is from Udupi...Bela hired her. Cooks decent food and is a great helping hand to take care of Musky.

Mrs Adiga arrives around 8 am in morning and leaves by 7pm in evening.

Gulmohar was been handled joint by Sehgals and SG Group... Yup that's Bela's company.

We are rivals! But bound to work together as Gulmohar is a joint venture now!

I have proposed multiple times that SG Group can take over Gulmohar's but she confirmed that it's Musky's company and she wants both of us to handle it.

So Gulmohar's is the only topic we discuss other than Muskaan.

Otherwise I and Bela are Absolutely strangers!!!

Even on Saturday Sunday we divide Musky's responsibility.

Saturdays Musky stays with her and Sundays with me.

But something happened last night that was strange...

I received a call from Bela on Saturday night when I was working on my laptop sipping my coffee...

It was strange...It was around 9 pm...

Bela never calls me this late...

Max I get calls from her is till 7 pm that too only if it's urgent!

I picked the call...

'Mr Sehgal...do you mind if you can keep Muskaan with you tonight?'

I was shocked... She never asked me this till date...

'No problem Miss Sharma...'

'Thanks Mr Sehgal...can you take her now please...' she asked..

'Coming in 10' I said and knocked her door.

She opened the door.

She was wearing a black off shoulder backless leather gown with a thigh slit.

High bun,. Silver purse and pointed stilletos.

She looked smoking hot🔥 my every single male harmone screamed loudly saying....

That woman is desirable!!!

My eyes automatically scanned her top to bottom helplessly and looks like I made her uncomfortable...

She was looking elsewhere...but I was shamelessly gawking at her...

Really Mahir Sehgal... gawking at a woman???

You do that,?

No!!! But she makes me do that!

It's not like she looked any less hot in sarees but it's the first time I'm seeing Bela in a western gown and damn she was making it Irresistibly tough for me to think straight!

She went inside to get Muskaan...

My eyes fell on her deep sexy back!!!

Uffff 🔥

How badly my lips would love to trace it!

Shutup Mahir!

It's Bela! Stop!!!

Exactly Mahir....it's Bela...🔥 That's why it's tougher!!!

Just then she came back with Musky's pram and handed it to me...

'Thanks Mr Sehgal.' she said...

Although for the first time voice was stuck in my throat.

I only managed to nod and continued staring at her shamelessly!

My trance was broken by a call she received...

'Hello... Ummm yes Umang. Sure... I'll get it...it's Gluten high pub. Yup! Just 2 minutes coming!'

I started walking towards my main door while I saw her lock the main door and take the lift.

She's going out???

With that dress???

This late???

And who's Umang???

She chose to let Muskaan be with me and she went to a pub??? Like seriously?

This is the motherhood she promised and now she's going on a date with a guy!

Seriously 😡

How dare she!!!

I couldn't think properly the entire night. I was getting thoughts about a strange man moving his fingers on her backless dress...that thigh slit!!!

Urghhhhhh!!!

Stop it Mahir! She can go with whomever she wants!

Why do you care 😡

With a lot of difficulty I slept off by 1 am..

Around 2:30 am midnight I had my mobile vibrating.

Yes thanks to my 1 month old tsunami...from mobile to cooker everything in my house runs on vibration 🤣

I picked the call... It was Bela???

I rubbed my eyes...

'Mr Sehgal...need some help.. could you please open the door'

I was SHOCKED 😳

Suddenly I recalled... Huhhh guess she is done with her Saturday night date 😏

I got up and opened the door.

She stood there with her cotton track pants and black t-shirt...a high bun and glasses.

'Mr Sehgal sorry to disturb you...do you have a tablet for headache?'

I was still pissed with her 😏

Obviously... Go party drink with random men then come home with a hangover wooow!!! Your true colors Bela huhh!!! I nodded and went to get the tablet...

While I noticed her step inside and peep into my bedroom where Muskaan was sleeping in her cradle peacefully ❤️

I saw her smile when she was looking at her.. she even passed her a flying kiss!

'Its fine Miss Sharma my daughter is good...she doesn't need fake love from other's!!!'

She looked at me questioning like I spoke french just now! I placed the tablet strip on her hand and said...

'You don't need to care for my daughter! You can party with random men in pub! I'm enough for my child!' I said...

I saw her clenching her jaws!

Her eyes were tired. She just banged the strip on my palm and left fuming from there..

'Truth is always bitter na! Your everlasting love for leftovers' I said...

She stopped and turned around and came to me...

'You know what I could have slapped you! But that will make me feel filthy!

You can think the hell you want!
I am not answerable to you!

I
Don't
Care!!!

I don't want to explain!

Because you are SICK!
I don't need to tell you what's Muskaan to me!

And I regret to think for once you could understand me! Huhh!
But I forgot you are the same cheap third grade mentality man!
Good for you!

Think!... Bye'

She said and walked towards the door..

I went to bang the door on her face.

While I heard a thud on floor.

When I saw Bela had fainted...

I ran to her...

She had fainted...

That's when I touched her body...

She was having high fever!

Probably 102-103' for sure.

I quickly carrier her in my arms..

Checked her temperature...it was 104'.

I didn't know whom to call...I remembered Kuhu..

She was in US and it was Day time for her

I quickly called her and told her Bela fainted.

She was a doctor in US...she checked Bela via video and prescribed paracetamol and cold water stripes

I made her sleep on my bed and did as Kuhu instructed...

She was shivering...

I switched off the fan, closed the curtains, windows... got her Extra quilt too.

But Bangalore where we own a high rise Penthouse can be ruthlessly cold at night.

Bela was still shivering! I couldn't take Musky to hospital...I didn't know if I could find a doctor as this hour where they are having a strike too!

God!!! Here she was shivering like a leaf!!!

Nothing striked me!

I quickly removed my t-shirt and lied down next to her and started rubbing my body to hers.

I was very very scared right now...

My harmones desired this woman but my heart was scared for her heath...

I could not see her weak!

Her innocent face was begging me to kiss her...

I resisted but finally pecked her forehead...

She cuddled closer and I felt slowly her shivering got a little better.

Around early morning I felt she started sweating...

Thank god! Fever was down.

I got up and wore my shirt.

I was looking at a sleeping Bela...

Such innocence on her face...

But only I know truth about the deceiving face!!!

She got up and freaked out. 😳
