Hey!

I'd like to thanks my wonderful Betareader JelloDVDs for helping me improve my writing and (as it isn't my mother tongue) my English.

Anyway enjoy! :)


Since Kala had discovered she had seven other selves it had been quite complicated to be completely alone. This morning, Wolfgang went to visit her just as she locked herself in her bathroom, before taking a shower. He had appeared next to the sink and she hadn't noticed him until he talked.

"Hello!" he said, making her jump. He wore a warm jacket and boots which Kala found strange.

"Oh god! You scared me!"

It was very awkward for the both of them to see each other after months of not talking. Thank Ganesha she wasn't naked yet and, for once, neither was he, not that it was that unpleasant to see him naked but still.

"Are you okay?" he asked as he got closer to her.

"Yes, you?"

"Yes."

That was it; they were both very embarrassed, and had nothing to say to each other.

"Where are you?" Kala asked breaking the silence again.

"See for yourself," he replied.

And, suddenly, they were not in the small bathroom anymore but in the mountains, surrounded by snow, which explained the way Wolfgang was dressed. Kala, who was barefoot and only wearing a nightdress was freezing. Suddenly, without saying anything, Wolfgang opened his coat, grabbed her hand and pulled her in his arms. The warmth of his body made Kala realise how much she had missed him.

"It is beautiful!" she said while looking at the landscape with sparkling eyes and a wide smile.

"I know," he replied while gently brushing her hair with his fingers.

"But not warm enough!" she added shivering with cold.

And then they were in Kala's bathroom again, even though it was quite warm in there, they didn't move an inch, still holding each other, Kala looking at Wolfgang who couldn't stop playing with her soft black hair.

"I missed you," he whispered before kissing her forehead.

"I missed you too," she replied with the same wide smile.

"I didn't marry Rajan. Because of you." Her cheeks blushed deeply with embarrassment.

Wolfgang didn't know what to say. He was so happy and so confused at the same time. As he didn't know how to react, he felt like the best thing to do was to kiss her, so that's what he did. At first she seemed surprised but she quickly answered the kiss. It felt so right being with her, holding this beautiful woman in his arms, kissing her soft lips again, he felt so complete. They separated too soon, in Kala's mind, but they both needed air. As she took Wolfgang's hand she noticed his watch. When she saw the time, she started to panic. He understood she was running late so he grudgingly left her after giving her one more quick kiss. She rushed into the shower. Next thing she knew her mother was shouting through the door.

"Kala? Are you finished?"

"Wait a minute, mom!" Kala shouted as she got out of the shower and covered her naked body with her favourite red towel.

"Kala, why are you taking so long, it usually only takes you 5 minutes to shower! I am going to be late." Complained the woman as she was waiting outside the only bathroom of the house.

"I'm finished mom," Kala said as she unlocked the door

"Are you okay?"

"Yes yes don't worry I am fine," she answered on her way to her bedroom to get dressed.

She had no idea why but Wolfgang was the sensate from her cluster she knew the most. He was the first one she'd met, the one she talked the most to, the one she kissed, and the one she had seen naked. She felt like the connection between them was much stronger than the one she shared with the others. But they hadn't seen each other since he told her to marry Rajan, that is until this morning. And it was very strange.


The next time they saw each other, the context was very different. When he had felt it would be safe to do so, Wolfgang had come back to Berlin to look after Felix. So Kala, who was in a lab, working on a new medicine, felt an immense joy and suddenly found herself in a kind of hospital room. She was starting to wonder where she was when she saw a man in bed and another man standing next to him and calling for a nurse: Felix and Wolfgang. Tears of joy were threatening to flow from Wolfgang's eyes as he explained to the nurse, his friend had woken up. Seeing him like that made Kala realise why she liked him so much. He was acting tough but, even though he had made many mistakes, he was a good man. He was ready to do anything for the ones he loved.

After the nurse left the room, the two friends talked and laughed together, Wolfgang telling the other man how he got rid of his cousin and uncle and how he had spent weeks in the Alps where he knew no one would find him, waiting for things to settle down. When Felix started to get tired Wolfgang sat on the chair next to him, like a bodyguard, and let him rest. Kala envied them, their friendship which seemed stronger than anything she'd seen before and she couldn't help but be a bit jealous. Before she met the other sensate, she didn't have many good friends and, apart from her family members, she wouldn't have trusted anybody with her life. But now she had the others, especially Wolfgang. Speaking of him, he didn't seem to have noticed her yet and it was probably better this way. He needed to be alone with his friend. As she was trying to leave Wolfgang started to talk.

"You can stay you know," he whispered looking at her with his beautiful blue eyes.

"I wouldn't want to disturb you," she replied, a bit embarrassed.

"Who could you? I'm always happy to see you. You're one of the best things that ever happened to me," he said with a little smile that made Kala's heart skip a beat.

She knew he wasn't effusive at all so she was very touched by his words. She took a few steps towards him and, when she was close enough, she shyly took his hand in hers and made him stand so she could hug him, resting her forehead on his torso. He then properly took her in his arms, putting, as an automatism, his fingers in her soft black hair. Their lips were going to meet when ...

"Hey man, what the hell are you doing?" Felix asked, making the two others jump "Are you okay?" he added as Wolfgang was scratching his neck, embarrassed. To an outside observer it would have looked like Wolfgang was trying to kiss air.

"Yes." He was looking at the spot where Kala had been seconds ago, but she was gone.

"Are you sure?" the other insisted. "You looked as if you were hugging someone, except there was no one. You're freaking me out right now!"

"I have something to explain to you," Wolfang said with a serious look on his face.

And, as he should have done since the beginning of this, he explained everything to his best friend from the first day he saw the others to Whisper's threat towards them all if Will was to wake, hoping Felix wouldn't think he was mad. In the end, Felix managed to stay calm; he hadn't called Wolfgang mental, nor had he laughed.

"So you're saying you can see a hot Indian girl who's on the other side of the Earth?" Felix said very seriously "Did you fuck her?" He added with a smile.

"You didn't change did you? I bet the girl is the only thing you focused on." Wolfgang laughed. "No I didn't! She's kinda different from the others." He added, glancing at the place where Kala previously hugged him, with a smile.

"What did you say her name was again?"

"Kala."

"I would really really like to meet this Kala. As soon as I'm up and about we'll have to go to India," Felix said with excitement in his voice.

Kala, who was back in the lab were she was supposed to work, couldn't stop laughing. Poor Felix, it should have been so strange for him to see Wolfgang talking alone and hugging the air. Even though she was a bit worried for him at first she knew Felix wouldn't judge Wolfgang no matter what. She had felt the strength of their friendship and she knew neither of them would ever turn his back on the other.

"Are you okay?" A voice behind her said, making her stop laughing.

"Yes...yes M Rasal," she whispered, coughing. She didn't dare looking at Rajan nor calling him by his first name anymore, not after what happened.

"Good now get back to work." he said coldly before leaving the room.

Since she had cancelled their wedding, Rajan had been very cold with her. She understood why but it was still affecting her personal as professional life as he owned the company she worked at. She saw him everyday and it was very difficult to handle, for the both of them.

Flashback-

Kala had just witnessed Wolfgang killing a man. Now she was back in the lab she had been working in before Wolfgang's visit; she was shaking and crying. She could hardly stand on her feet. Feeling like she might be sick, she ran to the nearest toilets and threw up. She had never felt so bad in her entire life. She couldn't think about anything else but the blood on Wolfgang's face and the way he looked at her before emptying his gun in his uncle's head. His eyes were cold as ice but, deep inside, she was sure he was crying for help. When he talked, she felt like the Earth had stopped. He said he was a monster and he said she should marry Rajan. But it only confirmed in her mind that she shouldn't do so, because, even after discovering the part of Wolfgang's life she had seen this day, she couldn't stop thinking about when they kissed in the car, his rough lips on hers, the butterflies in her stomach as he put his calloused hand on her cheek. She knew she would never be able, no matter how hard she tried, to feel the same way about Rajan. When he had kissed her, she had felt nothing.

That is why, when she got out of the toilets, she was more convinced than ever that she had to cancel her wedding with Rajan. She walked in the corridor leading to his office, determined to do the right thing. She knocked, feeling more and more nervous with each passing second. How was he going to react? Would he fire her because, after all, he could?

"Yes?" Rajan shouted through the office door.

"It's Kala," she answered, very nervous.

"Come in, my dear." As she entered she felt like she was betraying her family but, at the same time, she knew it had to be done.

"I need to tell you something Rajan," she said anxiously

"What is it?"

"I think we shouldn't get married."

"Are you saying you don't want to marry me anymore?" Rajan said angrily. The kind tone in his voice when she had first entered was gone. "Is that what you're saying?"

"Ye...yes." Kala replied as she stepped back afraid of Rajan's tone.

"Can I at least know why?" he whispered

"It doesn't feel right marrying someone I'm not in love with. I'm sorry," Kala said. She didn't dare look at him.

"You could have learned to love me," Rajan added, a sad look replacing his anger "We could work things out!"

"I...I am sorry." Kala said as she turned around.

"Kala come back!" Cried Rajan, but it was too late.

As she ran out of the office, she felt happy and guilty at the same time, and it felt good.

-End


Wolfgang was on a plane to India. Felix had booked tickets but had only told him the day before they were to leave. He'd quickly packed a few things and the next morning they were driving to the airport. Now that he was on the plane, he was starting to feel anxious about it. He was going to meet Kala and he was so excited he could have screamed if only Felix hadn't been in the seat on his right, sleeping like a baby. But Wolfgang was, at the same time, wondering what would happen if she wasn't pleased to see him. Would he have to take the first plane back to Berlin? He really hoped she would be as happy to see him as he was definitely happy to be on his way to see her. As he was looking through the window he felt like, somehow, he wasn't alone anymore. He had to search in the plane for a few minutes before he could find that pair of deep brown eyes staring at him. He smiled at her and got up from his seat to go to the plane's toilets so they could speak without people looking at him as if he was crazy and talking to air. She followed him and he locked them into the small room.

"Where are you going?" Kala asked Wolfgang before noticing his amused look.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked.

"I'm just thinking of all the things couples from all around the world must have done in these very toilets," he answered half laughing half serious.

"You're disgusting!" Kala replied gently hitting his arm.

"You've got to admit that we might be two of the first people who go in these toilets together just to talk," he insisted.

"Yes, probably…" she replied. "Anyway, that doesn't answer my question. Where are you going?"

"Won't tell you!" he said with a smile

"Tell me where you are g ..." She started to ask again before she stopped and began to smile. "Don't tell me you're coming to India!"

"How did you guess?" he said disappointed "I wanted it to be a surprise!"

"It is the only reason you wouldn't have told me where you were going," she replied as if it was obvious and he felt stupid for not having thought it through. "When and where are you landing? I'll come and pick you up !"

"Catapati something Airport at 2:34 pm."

"You mean Chhatrapati-Shivaji airport?" she asked and he nodded. "Then, I'll be there. Oh my god, I'm so excited!" She said, jumping and clapping her hands.

"Me too."

"And where are you staying?"

"We'll find a hotel once we get there."

"Okay," she said.. "There's a little hotel next to my parents restaurant if you like."

"We'll see," he replied, addressing her a smile.

They were staring at each other when a big noise made them break eye contact, someone was violently knocking at the door. Wolfgang, old reflexes dictating his reaction, was looking at the door with his jaw and fists clenched. Kala, had put a shaking hand on his shoulder and was hiding behind him, frightened. After what happened with Will, they had all become a little paranoid; Kala and Wolfgang were both worried it could be Whispers. They knew it was really irrational to think that but still they were panicking.

"I've been waiting for 10 minutes!" shouted a masculine voice. "I really need to use the bathroom so could you please hurry"?

Wolfgang and Kala were so relieved they could have cried, instead they started to giggle and, in this instant they really looked insane, especially Wolfgang who was, after all, laughing alone in the plane's toilets. After a few seconds, they both managed to stop. The man outside started to hit the door again.

"Wolfgang, we should get out before this man knocks the door down," suggested Kala.

"Right," replied the German man as he unlocked the door.

As he stepped out of the room he bumped into a very large man who looked at him crossly before quickly going into the toilets. While going back to his seat, Wolfgang, who thought Kala was following him, turned around and noticed she was gone.

Wolfgang spent the rest of the journey talking with Felix, eating, sleeping and thinking about what was going to happen once this plane landed in India. Felix left his seat, decided it was time for him to pick up a few girls on the plane. Wolfgang started to look outside the window again. Suddenly, Capheus was in the seat next to him enthusiast as ever.

"Yeah!" he started to shout, pressing Wolfgang against the wall so he could see the clouds better "Haha! Oh god I love you all, you're always travelling by plane. I love it!"

At this moment, Capheus looked like a kid in a candy store. He had a big smile pasted on his face and Wolfgang could see all his teeth his grin was so wide. Being around Capheus was so uplifting. He was always happy, always seeing the brightest side of life. He was optimistic and that was the very thing Wolfgang was lacking, optimism.

"Where are you going?" he asked Wolfgang, still smiling

"I'm going to India," he replied

"You are going there to see Kala aren't you?" the black man replied, his smile becoming even wider.

"Yes."

"You are very lucky, India is a beautiful country," Capheus said. "And Kala is a beautiful girl." He simply added before vanishing into thin air leaving Wolfgang alone with his thoughts..

When the voice in the speaker said passengers had to go back to their seats and tie their seatbelts, Wolfgang started to feel very nervous. As he stepped out of the plane he was even shaking a little. They went to get their suitcases and, as they exited the airport, Wolfgang saw Kala. She was across the street, in front of what seemed to be her car. She was there, but she hadn't seen him yet.


Hope you enjoyed reading this :) and if you could tell me what you thought about it it'd mean a lot to me. :D
