“ well let’s wait and see .. and i adham please don’t looking for trouble with jalal, he will kick you out from company if you mess up again and if that happen even i won’t able to help you “ plead maham anga.

Adham give a hard breath “ alright ammijaan . . i will be a good now “

“ geeez grow up will you adham . . ., but adham did you notice something wrong with jalal, he act strange these days, he and adgah acted like they hide something “ adham walk toward maham anga and hold her shoulder.

“ im sorry ammijaan but i only interesting in women so don’t have appetite for a man “ said adham jokingly then he go before maham anga getting angry, maham anga watch his son with helpless, she do whatever she can to make adham ceo at one of jalal company and that useless son ruin it in a blink of eyes, then her mind back to jalal strange behavior and she is very curious what is cooking in jalal head, he is really unpredictable, sometimes it piss off lot of people but that is what makes him very succesfull businessman.

“ geez thanks man . . i just hope the promotion not becoming your body guard “ say bobby hopefully.

“ hey what’s wrong being my body guard ? “ complained mirza

This time its bobby turn to laugh “ nothing man but too much lustful women running for you and i don’t like manhandle woman hahaha . .  but with you brother it’s the opposite . . women will run to hide and just lust him behind their curtain . .   “ mirza cracked listening to bobby.

Jalal watching sleeping jodha with happiness in his heart and he caress her soft hair, he love everything bout her, her smile, her hair, her beautiful face,her body, her laugh, especially her heart,  she is very kind and never think bad about other people, in his world you cant trust stangers but it’s the opposite with her, she willingly to help strangers, its her special nature but very dangerous too soo he will make sure she’s been watch 24/7, then jalal reach out her hand and kiss it “ soon jodha . . i will put wedding ring on your finger “ jalal hear his phone ringing, slowly he go to living room and see his phone one table he take it and answer.

“ yes bobby “

“ im in front of the door bos . . i bring new clothes  and bath equipment “ jalal end the call and walking to the door, and like bobby said he already in front of the door, bobby handed new clothes to jalal but when he handed bath equipment bag jalal looking at him with suspicious.

“ hey bos we body guards are boy scout . . always prepare for everything “ jalal chuckled, this guy really could be a comedian “ and don’t worry bos . . towel and toothbrush are new “

‘ if its been being used i will kill you “ threat jalal jokingly “ come bobby . . i have some duty for you “ bobby follow jalal into living room , jalal put the clothes and bath equipment on a chair then he sit on sofa and and ask bobby sit beside him.

“ i want you to prepare a team to watch her “ jalal point his finger to bedroom “ and i want it to start now . . from this moment “

Bobby nod  “ ok bos . . i will make an arrangement “

Jalal know bobby must want to know bout her and he will depend on bobby for jodha safery so he better be honest with, he is been with him quite long and he trust him and beside he is mirza friend too “ this woman is very important to me bobby and once i called off the wedding with ruqaiya reporters will find the reason of my decision, and if they find out bout her they will hunt her down . . so i want you to arrange the best team to watch and protect her, this building is not safe .. there is no guard, no camera and i wont allow her to stay here any longer “

“ yes that’s good and wise idea, i notice people can come and go freely into this building and it’s definitely not safe for her “ bobby very agree to jalal thinking, jalal appreciate bobby who don’t ask too much question.

“ i will move her to my penthouse , its very safe there “

“ yes bos that’s very safe place . . not even a mosquito can come to that building “ jalal smile listening to his humour.

“ ok . . that’s all for now “ bobby take a leave and jalal lock the door, then he come back to jodha’s bedroom and see her still sleeping, jalal want to come back to bed and lay next to her but he think that is not a wise move, he don’t know how she will react if she wake up with him, and beside he don’t want rushing jodha in physical intimacy not that he want one now, of course he want that physical intimacy but after he make jodha his legal wife, she deserve that and he will make jodha the most beautiful bride, she is his princess and jalal want jodha to feel that way, her wish is his command and he still remembered her dream wedding day so he want jodha to make her dream come true, jalal look to his watch and decide to take shower before she wake up then leave the room.

Jodha open her eyes and she remembered what happen last night, she look around and searching for jalal but he is no where to find she think perhaps jalal already leave, she look at watch and it show 6.30am its time to take shower, she jump out from bed slowly and walking towards bathroom but when she is just bout out from room a hand touch her shoulder make her scare to death.

“ ahhhhhhhhhh “ she shout in fear and run towards living room looking a way out in panic, then someone catch her and turn her around, jodha close her eyes and already scare for the worst when she hear jalal voice.

“ jodha . . jodha its me “ jodha open her eyes and there is jalal looking at her with concern.

Jodha swallow her saliva in feel relief “ ja ja jalal “ she caress her chest to make her heart calm which is now beating soo fast.

Jalal take jodha sit on sofa and see her pale face “ are you ok ? im sorry if I scare you . . i don’t mean to “ jalal really worry looking at her, her lips gone white.

Jodha give him a weak smile “ it’s ok . . i just feel little bit shocked that’s all “ jodha reassure him.

“ Are you sure ? “ jalal want to make sure she is ok.

Jodha look  down before she look and answer him “ yes .. im fine . . “

Jalal still feel worry but he will talk bout it again later “ ok then if you sure . . go to shower now “

Jalal watch her until bathroom door close then jalal back to kitchen and finish his tea, he is a morning coffee person but he cant find any coffee here so with regret instead making coffee he is making tea, he  checking his email from his phone and replying to some very important email, jalal don’t know how long time have pass when jodha come out from bathroom, she wear pink bathrobe and a small towel cover her wet hair, she smile to him with nervous and then almost run she go to her room to get dress, ten minutes later jodha finish dress up, she come out from room,

Jalal smile looking at nervous jodha “ good morning “ he greet her.

“ good morning “ she greet back with nervous and sometimes she look down in shy.

 “ come and sit with me “ he point a chair beside him and with obedient she sit beside jalal, jalal touch her wet hair and smell a flower essence “ you should dry your hair . . “

“ i like it to dry naturally naturally “ she said.

She look at jalal who look fresh and already changed his clothes “ you’ve been shower ? “

“ yes .. i take shower while you sleeping “ reply him then he put a glass of milk and a sandwich in front of jodha.

Jodha look at jalal with surprise “ you’ve made this for me ? “

“ yes . . i’ve made this for your breakfast “

“ thank you “ she said happily.

Jalal smile look how happy jodha with just a simple thing he do for her “ welcome . . . now eat it “ jodha nodding and start have her breakfast “ jodha . . i forget to ask . . what’s your work ? “

“ ooh . . . im accountant “ said jodha.

“ wow . . . really ?  i though accountant is an old and bald guy “ reply jalal in surprised.

Jodha laugh hearing his words “ not all accountant old and bald “ she said

“ why you choose this profession ? “

“ i always like number and working with number is really fun, i continued my study after divorced and really study hard so i can finish it very quick, the first time i work as accountat and finish my job and getting praised by mt bos its felt soo good, beside an accountant worked behind the desk most of the time so don’t have to meet a lot people and that’s suit me, i only have to meet my bos and some important people “ jalal nodding hear her words and he can take conclusion that jodha still have problem with meeting people or socialization, he need to meet with her phsyciatrist because he want to her help.

“ you said you have best friend right “

“ oh yes . . her name is moti and she is like sister, and aunty juhi is like a mother “ there is love in her voice .

“ can i meet them ? “ he ask

Jodha look jalal with  surpised “ ooh . .  ok . . but . . hmmm they will feel strange why you out of the blue want to meet them, i mean they don’t know bout us , and they know you as ruqaiya fiancé “ she reply with doubtful.

“ aaaaahh . . ok ok . . i understand “ he said “ don’t worry jodha i will explained to them our situation “ he add.

“ when do you want to meet them ? “

“ tonight “

“ tonight ? “ ask jodha with surpised , that is very fast.

“ yes tonight . . i want to meet them very soon “ jodha think hard how she tell moti bout jalal, she already told aunty juhi bout jalal.

Jodha looking jalal  “ i will call them and ask if they available tonight “ she said.

Jalal smile “ you do that . . . may be we can have dinner together . . i will take you all to the best restaurant in town “

“ we will have dinner outside ? “

Jalal see uncomfortable on jodha body language and his ealier conclusion is right and he don’t want to push her now, she still very fragile “ if you don’t want to then we won’t . . why don’t you ask aunty juhi to invite us for dinner “ he said and jodha start a loosen up.

“ really ? you will do that ? you don’t mind come to their house ? “ ask jodha with disbelief and hopeful.

Jalal touch her cheek and caress it “ ofcouse sweetheart . . why would i mind, they are your friends, they are your family so they are my friends and my family too “ he said softly.

She give him thank you smile for his understanding and acceptance “ i will call aunty and let you know the news “ reply her.

“ good for me “ he said “ but speaking of call give me your phone “ with confuse jodha take out her phone from her bag and handed it to him and she notice a scar on his hand, she saw that scar last night but she had not in her sense time to asked him.

“ what happen to your hand ? “ she ask pointed to his injured hand, jalal turn over his left hand and see what jodha see.

“ it’s nothing . . . “ he said

“ it looks very hurt . . have seen a doctor ? “ she ask with concern.

“ it’s ok sweetheart . . it just a small scar . . “ jalal try to reassure her and jodha nod but still feel concern.

Jalal look at jodha phone with a sadly face “ whats wrong ? why you look sad ? “ ask her.

Jalal look at jodha with disbelief “ you know jodha almost no one using this kind phone anymore . . you can’t install new program with this . . you should bury this phone long way back “ said jalal with joking.

“ hey . . . at least it can make and receive a call . . and stil work in sms “ she said while jalal start to use her phone “ what are you doin ?”

Jalal handed her phone back “ just add my number to your phone . . .  seriously jodha you need to upgrade your phone to the latest model “

“ feel no need to change it . . .  “

“ no need ? you kidding ? its hell need . . since i want to see your face all the time so i will bug you with lots of video call and to do that you must upgrade your phone . . .  “

“ ok ok ok . . . i will upgrade it when i have time “ she said and jalal smile with happy for his victory.

“ you do that . .  ASAP . . “ he reminding her “ it’s time to work . . come on i’ll drive you to work . . “

“ what . . no . . no . . my office is close and i used to walk . . “ she refused him , she don’t want create scene at her work but if her co workers see her with jalal it will creat chaotic.

Jalal almost laugh watching her horrible expression but he understand what’s she afraid off but still he will drive her to work “ listen i don’t care with what people think or say and i will still drive you but i promise my car will stop in safe distance and i wont come out so no one will see me  . . ok “

Jodha think for a second and hope its really safe “ ok . . . “

“ ok then . . come one “ then jalal and jodha out from her apartment, jalal wait while jodha lock the door then he take jodha hand and hold it tight, jodha feel really shy when he do that and that too in public, then with hand in hand they walking down the stairs and come out from building.

Bobby climb out from his seat the moment he see jalal and jodha out from building, and other body guards already cross the street to escort their bos, jalal ask jodha to enter first while he is giving instruction to driver, then he enter and sit next to her, he reach her hand and grasp it, jodha look at their hand and a soft smile appears on her face then she give a little squeeze to his hand, jalal look at her with love and jodha feel shy and avoiding his stare with bowing her head.

Bobby feel relief he wear black glasses so his bos wont notice when he take a quick look on mirror and see how his bos give the lady very intense stare and the lady blush in shy then bow, and bobby realize the driver see the same thing and both smile.

The car stop just a few metre from jodha office and driver get out and open the door in jodha side “ don’t forget to let me know bout the dinner “ jalal reminding jodha when she just about to move.

Jodha nodding “ ok . . . . see you later “ jalal hold her arm then with very quick he kiss jodha forehead, jodha face turn very red.

Jalal smile looking her face “ now go . . . . “ he let her go and jodha out from car, jalal watch till jodha safe enter her office, then car start to move again.

“ I’m ok adgah . . . “ reply him with smile as he know this old man must feel very worry bout him “ ok now . . all of you know bout me and jodha, but i want to keep this matters between us for awhile until i sort out everything with ruqaiya and hindal mirza . . “

“ so everything is clear now between you and jodha ? “ ask adgah and he see love and sparkling in jalal eyes.

Jalal grin with happy “ yes . . there is no miss understanding anymore, but there is something bothers me but i will look into that matters later “

“ and you seem already take a decision bout her and ruqaiya “ said abdul.

Jalal nod “ like all of you know i always follow my heart and now will do the same, that’s why i call you here . . the moment i called off the wedding with ruqaiya it would be messy, reporters will find out bout jodha and crucified her for the fall out relationship between me and ruqaiya perhaps defamed and tarnished her too, i don’t care if they do that to me but  i wont allow that happen to jodha “ adhah, mirza and abdul giving understanding look to jalal “ so adgah . . the reports bout jodha past i want you with the help of private investigator you hired destroy it till the sources, i don’t care how much it cost i don’t want anyone get their hand on jodha past, but before you destroy the original file make sure no one had the copy so it can be use to blackmail in future “ adhag nodding “ and i don’t know how you will do it but i want to be alert when someone try to dig jodha’s past, so we will know who we are dealing with “ add jalal.

“ I will do that but if someone want to dig jodha past there are still her ex in law an some neighbours who know bout her abusive father and husband “ adhag reminded jalal.

“ as long as there is no physical evidence they cant prove anything “ adgah nod and smile, he fully understand where his mind goin.

“ abdul . . i want you to help me set up my penthouse . . . re arrange everything, alarm system, changed the lock and make sure security camera working . . i will move jodha there as soon possible but i want it ready today “ abdul write down the duty.

Mirza give jalal big grin “ of course bhaijan . .  i will be your number one cheerleader “ all break into laughter

Jalal shake his head “ you know mirza . . you and bobby like a twin . . even had the same sense of humour, you two could make a comedy show together “

“ bobby is my twin from other mother . . Allah very kindness . . can you imagine ammijaan having me and bobby together ? “ ask mirza in dramatic way.

Adgah really happy to see jalal and mirza relationship, there is no competition between them, mirza know his capability so he glad and happy with jalal at the top and he is the second command, hamida did a great job raised the kids, even bakshi really sweet too and she always can count on to her two amazing brother,

“ ok then . . everything clear bout me and jodha . . next . . abdul what bout ocean pacific hotel bailout ? “ ask jalal.

“ it yours jalal . . its not bailout anymore you buy it, me and mirza already deal with the shareholder, its very hard bargained but due to mr.

“ nice . . very nice, you two really hard work for this project and im very proud “ praised jalal “ so from now i will assignment you both to multimiliiion contrat transaction and deal, and i will work behind the scene “ abdul and mirza really happy with jalal praising them and the new assignment, its every executive dream to work on multimillion project because they deal with big player and to get that recognision in jalal eyes is not easy, eventhough mirza is his brother but he must work his ass off to prove himself because jalal never give privileged to anyone not even his relatives before he acknowledge their skill and capability.

“ but bhaijan who will handle ocean pacific hotel . . me and abdul already busy enough ? “ ask mirza.

Jalal smile full of mystery “ don’t worry mirza i already have 2 people in my mind  “ said jalal “ adgah . . call aziz, ask him to leave delhi today , he will be my second command for ocean pacific hotel  “ Adgah nod with happy, he always want his son back to mumbai but he never intentionally ask jalal because he know jalal soo well that jalal will recognize his talent.
