Meera's pov

It was the next day, I quickly got ready in a yellow kurti and pants with net dupatta and went downstairs to make breakfast. Whole night I was tossing and turning around thinking what is going to happen today. I was praying every minute to keep Krsh's life safe, let any bad thing happen to me instead of him. Also I have decided that I will tell him everything about Abhay and my past. He can't blackmail me like this.

I am not that old Meera who gets scared after getting a single threat, I am Krsh's Meera who is strong enough to handle such types of man. It was eight in the morning by the time I arranged the table and kept the items. Everybody also came downstairs including him. I was hoping for one glance from him but he didn't and my mood fell down further.

I wished a good morning to everyone and as usual Rohan bickered with me, I was thinking now at least he will laugh but he was not. We were just starting when he got a call and excused himself and went to the back garden to talk. I made an excuse to go upstairs to take my phone, but both the men understood and silently agreed to not tease me and I went behind him to the back garden.

His back was facing and looked like he was rubbing his forehead. He was looking so fresh in that dark blue shirt and pants with that coat which were enhancing his broad shoulders and physique more. I wondered what is the need of wearing such formal clothes if he is not going to work. I wanted to know what lay beneath that shirt and I cursed myself for thinking such thoughts in the early morning. My trance broke when he spoke, "That means I have to leave right now. No, no it's fine, I will manage. Yeah, meet you in the afternoon."

He turned around and I gasped seeing him. His eyes were red, looking like he cried, his hair messy and his stubble was gone which indicated he shaved. Wait he cried, but why, he was also having slight dark circles around his eyes indicating he didn't get much sleep last night. And the reason was me. I slowly walked towards him but he moved his head to the right side.

I gathered some courage and took a deep breath and went closer to him such that there was a little space between our bodies and touched his right cheek with my left hand and moved his face towards me. His eyes were down looking at the ground, "Now you don't want to even look at me?" I asked in a soft whisper, my traitor tears giving me away.

He instantly moved his head up, "No Meera. Baby it is nothing like that. I just thought that maybe you need time and I am ready to give you all the time in this world. I thought being away from you would make you happy."

How can a person look so hot and cute at the same time? Then I realized he is Krsh, he is capable of doing anything. "There can be no happiness in Meera's life if there is no Krsh. There can be no peaceful day in Meera's life if she has not once talked to him in a day. You say you love me then why did you like I did not exist on that day. Why did you pretend I was not there? Why didn't you acknowledge my presence?" I wanted to say so much but now my tears were not stopping and were continuously flowing making me choke on my own words.

"Meera, love stop, take deep breaths. Everything is fine, I will tell you everything because there are reasons for my act, for my shameful act and I am ready to bear all your anger. But we cannot talk here like this. Baba and Rohan must be waiting for us, we should, yeah angel." He said like talking to a child keeping his both palms on my cheeks and giving me a forehead kiss.

I nodded and then we went to eat breakfast. We were in the middle of it when Krsh said, "Baba, I have to leave for Mumbai after one hour. An urgent meeting came up and the client is not ready to sign the contract without my presence."

"But beta, how suddenly, like everything was fine yesterday right. Is everything okay over there?" Baba asked in a worried tone. My mood dropped more listening to him such that now I have lost my appetite.

"I know Baba, but Ravi informed me yesterday about how it was difficult to manage him yesterday. The client is important and is coming today. If he does not find me there he will cancel the deal and the company cannot bear the loss because of me."

"I understand, then you should go as soon as possible. Work comes first."

"By the way, how are you going?"

"I will go to Bhopal by car and then take the flight. In total it will take around five hours to reach Mumbai."

Baba nodded in understanding and continued in a fatherly yet strict tone, "Then Meera and Rohan both should accompany you to Bhopal and I want no discussions on this further."

Krsh had to agree with him. Baba went to the shop and both Krsh and Rohan went to Rohan's room to get ready and Krsh to pack his things. I was in the kitchen preparing some snacks for the journey and then I also went to my room to get ready.

There was this feeling of something bad happening but I didn't get any messages after that one. I am tense, nervous, suffocated all at once. Everything happened so suddenly that I didn't get the time to process. Right now we have left for Bhopal. I and Krsh were sitting at the back, Rohan was sitting in the front passenger seat and there was a driver of Krsh beside him.

I don't know the reason but I was feeling heavy, like there is a burden on me and I can't take it anymore. I was looking at him hoping he could give me a single glance. I mentally chuckled at how the tables have turned in a single night. Yesterday he was dying for my one glance and today I am dying for the same.

Suddenly he turned his head from the window side to look at me. I gasped that he had caught me looking at him. Instantly he took my right hand in his, my fingers filling the gap between his, evoking a tingling warmth within me like the gentle touch of morning rays. I checked in front to see if anyone saw us, but Rohan was asleep keeping his head towards the window and the driver was concentrating on the road.

I again looked at him, warming my cheeks with blush as radiant as the glow of love itself seeing the intensity in his eyes. "I know you want to talk to me. Don't worry my love, as soon as the work finishes I'll come back to you. After all, the talk is long due." He murmured in a deep and rich voice, touching his lips to the tip of my ears, so that no one could hear us.

I just nodded at him because he had bound me in a trance. "Wait for me to come back, baby." And with that he shifted towards my side, wrapped his arms around my waist bringing me too close to himself without leaving any space between us and kept his head where my neck meets my shoulder. Since he got the chance, he was nuzzling as close to my neck as possible, giving fluttering kisses. I tried to stop him closing my eyes,"Krsh please not now." I literally controlled myself from being taken away in the moment and he hummed like a gentleman he is and closed his eyes. I on the other hand was looking towards the window holding his arms, feeling him close to me.

The next time I opened my eyes, we had already reached the airport. Krsh was messaging someone, Rohan was outside somewhere and the driver was taking out the luggage. "Oh you woke up, good." I looked towards him when he spoke, keeping his phone inside his coat's pocket. I don't know how but I felt like crying and my tears as always betrayed me flowing like a dam. "Hey Meera, don't cry love. I promise you everything will get back to normal. Don't worry I am here right, I am not going to leave you." Listening to this I jumped on him and hugged him, my arms around his neck, his shirt was getting wet by my tears, he also didn't waste time to hug me back, his arms around my waist.

It felt like an eternity but in reality it only has been ten minutes since I was in his arms. I moved back when I calmed down and he was looking down at me now with his palms on my cheeks and giving me a kiss on forehead and both cheeks. Before he could say something, Rohan came and asked us to come out.

Krsh has to now go for check in and all the procedures. We were standing at the gate. He hugged Rohan and I can see the brotherly vibes radiating from both the sides. I smiled looking at them and then he came to me. He was looking at me with so much love. He nodded and I did the same to him. He went away taking my heart with him and I am here waiting and hoping for his return.

We reached back home in another three hours and now it was four in the afternoon. I freshened up and started reading a psychology book which I had started a week before. I have to be updated with what's going on in the psychology world and make notes. All in all I was distracting myself from my heart stealer whose last talk with me was that his flight had taken off on a message to which I sent an ok, but after that nothing, nada.

I reminded myself to focus my attention back on the work I am currently doing and didn't realize when three hours were spent. I looked outside the window to see it was dark, but then Rohan screamed my name. So I immediately went downstairs and was shocked to see him helping baba to give support and make him sit on the sofa.

I made a run towards the kitchen and brought him a glass of water. I made him drink and Rohan rushed towards baba's room to bring his medicines. I was gripped by distress seeing him in a tense state. Rohan made him eat the medicines and I was sitting beside him and rubbing his palms.

"Raj bhaisaab called, telling that Krsh's car has met with an accident and he was in operation theater right now." He said in a sad voice stroking my head. I became numb hearing him, all my senses flew away, I lost the ability to speak suddenly.

Tears brimmed in my eyes and I choked on my own words. But gathering myself I just asked how. Baba said that they also didn't know but a truck came and crashed into his car. He was supposed to go with the driver but his driver had to suddenly go to his home and Krsh made his way to the office directly then this happened.

"I want to go to him baba now." I said.

"I understand beta, but you have to wait until tomorrow. We will have to book tickets and all. Stay strong. We are with you."

"But baba he needs me right now."

"I understand you, my child."

At this point I was literally weeping like a child. Sleep was not seen in all three of our eyes.

It was midnight when Baba got the call from I guess Raghav bhaiya. I don't know what he was talking about. My mind was filled with Krsh and our last talks, how he said to wait for him, how he promised that we will always stay together. From the time I met him till this morning, all the moments flashed in front of my eyes like a movie.

My reverie broke when baba came to me and said to pack my bags since Raghav is coming to take me in a few hours.

I made a run to my room and packed whatever clothes I got in my hand. I made my way towards the balcony and looked at the moon. I was crying, crying for him, crying for the fear of losing him, crying for what if's, crying for the guilt I was carrying.

I tried to make myself strong for Krsh, because he has told me to wait for him and I will do it even if it is for eternity, I will do it. I just prayed that nothing happens to him.

Third person's pov-

In an underground basement of the mansion, there sat three people, one man in fifties, another man in twenties and a girl in twenties. They were talking or more like plotting.

The young man got a call and instantly a smirk formed in his face. He talked for a few minutes more than hung up. Looking towards the other two he said howling with laughter, "Krsh Singhania has met with an accident. This is the best day of my life."

"Don't forget who helped you to live your best day." The older man said, rotating his glass of scotch.

"Half of the plan is done. Now it's my Meera sweetheart's turn." The man was Abhay. Yes, Meera's ex said like he was dancing in happiness.

"I warned her but she as always didn't take me seriously and now she has to pay for her actions. Now I will see who is there to stop me to make her mine."

"But I don't see why you have to make Krsh go through all of this because of that bitch." The girl literally screamed at the two expressing her irritation by rubbing her eyes.

"Ohh please, it's not like you love him really, you only love his money which will be ours soon. Don't worry babes." 

"But now we have to be more aware of what happens around us. I advise both of you to not take any haste actions otherwise because of you two my money will be gone."

"Yes yes we understand." Abhay spoke ignoring the fact that he was older and not of his age.

"Now the next plan is to.......", the older man continued with his plans.

The whole night they celebrated Krsh's accident and the success of their first plan. On the other side Meera has become a mess and Krsh is struggling for his life.
