TRUST....it may be you or me Part 3

He looked at Kirti and asked ''Is Rahul in" ? Kirti did not responded but got to know that this man knows Rahul, still she was so scared and was staring at him. He asked again"Hello, where is "Rahul sahab". This time his voice was little rude to Kirti. He was thinking of her a maid. Kirti still did not responded. which made him angry and he went inside rahul's room but kirti heard him saying 'stupid'. Kirti was so scared, it could be seen on her face very easily. Kirti was alone in the house with a unknown person and the man was not looking nice at all. she was wanted to run away from home but that was impossible for her due to long way stairs and her wheel chair. She was praying that Rahul should come home. She was continuously staring at the main door. After an hour she saw that Rahul was coming home. he entered home said Hi to kirti and went to his room.

After some time Rahul and that man came outside the room. Rahul said "Kirti meet my friend Akshy and Akshy meet Kirti".

Kirti could easily see that Akshy looked at her weirdly but due to so called Etiquette he said 'Hello' and turned his face towards Rahul.

Rahul told Kirti" Akshy was his childhood friend and a has steel business in Chicago. Earlier he used to live in Rajkot but he went to U.S.A.

Rahul told that Akshy has a great sense of business. he helps him a lot in his work. He told Kirti that Akshy was the Richest and most successful businessman in Rajkot at one point of time and now he is doing the same in Chicago.

Akshy was quite happy for praising him in front of Kirti so he asked Rahul 'who is she ? Kirti looked at Rahul that now what will he say. Will he tell everything to Akshy? she was feeling so embarrassed and waiting for Rahul's answer but Rahul said "She is a friend's cousin and will stay here for some days". he did not tell Akshy anything about her past. Which made her so relaxed at the moment. She looked at Rahul. he smiled and gave her a signal to stay relaxed.

It was late in the evening when they had their lunch together. Kirti had to seat with them so that everything looks normal. However Akshy was not just an intelligent businessman but also a very sharp man. he took few hours to know that things are not like as they are looking.

Kirti got to know that Akshy will stay here for some days as he has some business work in the city. Rahul told Akshy to join him in the office. He said 'I have a free cabin which you can use' but Akshy said no and said that he likes to do his work by lying on a bed rather then sitting on a chair and he will stay here at home only. Rahul said "o.k. fine."

This was the very first time Kirti felt Rahul was unhappy. It was quite strange but Kirti could not understand the reason.

Where Akshy could also feel the same but he did not say anything. Now kirti had to stay at home with Akshy when Rahul go to office. Rahul also try to finish his work as soon as possible so that he could to reach home early. Akshy and kirti could also feel Rahul's uneasiness.

However, While living with Akshy, Kirti felt that he was not that bad as he looked on his first day.For few days he never looked at her but looking at her physical condition he use to put Necessary Items near to her. he also tried to make her feel comfortable as she was afraid of staying with him. some times he did try to start conversation with her by saying hi, hello or how are you but she never responded. It was very easy for Akshy to understand that Kirti is in depression.

One night they were having dinner. Rahul discussed some office related things with Akshy and kirti was still quiet as always. Akshy looked at her for sometime and suddenly he asked "Rahul, do you love Kirti ?"

'What' Rahul could not understand how to response and he almost shouted.

Kirti was also looking at them and was similarly shocked as Rahul.

Rahul controlled himself and said there is nothing like that and please don't make situation awkward for us. He was a bit angry.

Akshy looked at them and said relax guys, I just asked because I felt it. If you would have asked me I have the same answer. I don't think that there is anything to get angry. Akshy Continued. He said 'look, I know there is something which I don't know, neither I want to know if not required. However the kind of situation kirti is living in is not good for her. you both don't talk to each other. Many times, I have seen her crying alone which can not be a solution of any problem.

He was so open in saying everything on their faces. Rahul and kirti could not understand what to do. they were living together from almost two months but they could never talked like this.
