Must Read: The Silent Lover - Season 1 - Episode 26

In the middle of the night, Komal awoke in a cold sweat.

With shaky hands, she took the glass full of
water by her bedside to her trembling lips.

It’s enough now.

She had to inform him. She had to tell him the fact that was eating her up like a dangerous dragon.

The telephone rang as Aariz was preparing for bed. He reached out one hand for the reciever, his other hand held his toothbrush.

“Yes?”

His voice was drowned in a sleepy way.

“Aariz?” The feminine voice rang like crystal chimes over the wires.

“Komal, is that you?”

“Are you alright, what happened?” With the telephone reciever wedged between his ear and shoulder, he went on brushing his teeth.

“I can’t keep it inside me anymore, I’ve to tell you this.”

“Yes, I’m here.” He blinked his eyes fully, his sleep miles away. “Tell me, what you need to tell me.”

“Not on the phone.” She sobbed. “We need to meet and talk.”

“But what’s the matter?” Any problem?”

The answer was sighed rather than spoken.

“Aariz, I’m waiting for you at Sun cafe!”

And then she hung up the reciever.

He set the phone reciever back in its cradle and sighed. Within ten minutes, he was ready to meet her. He rushed toward Sun cafe in his Honda Accord, a famous cafe that was not far
from his place.

When he reached there, he was suprised to find out that she was already waiting for him.

Her beauty, her charms and her vulnerability was so intense and effective that it didn’t fail to inspire and impress hin even in thus tensed state and condition.

She had tied her gorgeous bright, nut-shining hair into a long ponytail and wore a quarter sleeved plain white shirt of bosky and nice fitting jeans that revealed most of the details of her extremely attractive legs. He noted with interest that she had a pair of shapely legs tapering smoothly from their joint to the ankle.

“Wow.” He said, as she tood up to greet him. “You startle me, dazzle me even in yoour casual appearance.”

“Wow yourself.” She said without much expression. She ran one hand through her already tousled hair and sank into the chair.

“Now, what’s the problem?” He asked, gazing deeply into her eyes.

She swallowed hard.

A waiter appeared and vaguely, she heard Aariz ordering black coffee.

By the time they were sitting in an isolated booth in the back of the cafe five minutes kater, she had found her voice.

“Aariz you have to listen with patience.” She said huskily.

“For God’s sake Komal, that’s why I’m here. Please tell me now.”

She opened her lips, her facial expression
clearly showing the featuresbof war that was going on between her heart and mind.

“God, why does this happen to me?” She cried silently.

She needed to telk him things, wanted to inform him about all those essential facts, which were confusing her, making her frustrated.

“There are two big problems in our way, two major obstacles.” She said, when at last she gained her breath.

“And what are those?”

“What would your parents think?” She asked, eyeing him critically.

“What would your relatives say? Would they accept me with open arms?”She asked
another question, without waiting for his answer.

“Look Komal, it’s my life. Do you have to live with my relatives and my parents or with me alone?”

“ButI don’t want an isolated life.” She protested.

“You know very well that I don’t give a damn to these stupid social and religious restrictions or whatever.” He said with firm belief. “It’s my life and I have full right to spend or pass it in a way I like it. Frankly, it’s none of my relative’s business.” He said harshly, his voice filled with emotion.
