I can't call it a fling

Dheeraj! Please try to focus on your clingy behaviour. She is not your girlfriend. Madhuri said with a relaxing expression.

I can't forget that day. Have you ever loved anyone, Madhuri? How cold is your heart? 

Dheeraj said in a harsh and rushing manner.

Let's get back to your thoughts. I am not the lead here, she said. 

Sorry, Madhuri. Can we start again? He asked.

Yes, please. She nodded her head in acceptance.

I met her for a week on the trip. We talked a lot. When we get back to the hotel, we stayed in the same room. We had sex. But, it's not just a casual fling for me, He said.

What does she think? Madhuri questioned.

For her, I am just a travel buddy. Nothing more than that, He replied.

Madhuri looked at the clock and reminded herself to close this therapy session. 

We can talk next week, Madhuri said.

He smiled and greeted her goodbye.
