Riddhima
Riddhima
Being with armaan, having him as a friend was great…….he was one to whom you can have fun as well as the one to whom you can share your sorrows…..as it said that you get a best friend once in a life…………I really think he is the one for me beside my sister
Shopping was fun………..he was looking sweet looking here and there when Pihu called out for her baby food….and later when he just moved his hand from his healthy hairs…..stop it Ridz
Do you think I am noticing more stuff in him that I should…………..i think I should figure it out soon as I don't want to get into something trouble and later have to found myself falling for him…….
I took a day off as I was thinking to do some house chores……painting the rooms was first on my list as soon I want to celebrate Pihu's birthday in here and that too was approaching next month
After feeding Pihu, I get her ready as any time Abhi will be here to pick her…………Abhi was attached to her and I too don't want Pihu to grew up without feeling his father love.
She was looking adorable in her white sleeveless romper suit………..having a red simple t-shirt under it………………..Suddenly I get the urge to click her one picture when I heard abhi's car horn..
Giving her a big sloppy kiss, I turn around to find Abhi holding my hand..
"Riddhima, listen I need too…….." before he say anything, I shoot him a glare and said
"Abhi, I am seriously tired of your talking thing……..ok…………….when you were supposed to say something, you feel better to keep quiet…..now there is nothing left, ok…….." Seeing Pihu watching us a serious look…….i put a smile on my face and cupped her tiny face in my hands
"Have fun, baby" my hands traced down to tickle her as she laughed and that was enough for me to get back normal
Biding them bye I closed the door behind me and get off with the painting………
Taking a break, I just went into kitchen to get a hot cup of coffee when armaan arrived and he was angry with me for not letting him know about my plans………
He just look like a little kid when he get angry…………and when I ordered him, the smile broke on his lips was amazingly sexy….
Oh God! Save me from this infatuation……..
He was painting the room when an idea just clicked my mind as how would he look having a mustache………I just quietly move behind him to make one but he got me and brush splashed on his face……
He was looking damn funny……as he looked at me narrowing his eyes, I again brushed the paint on his neck and there he gooo……
Running behind me, he knocked to several stuff in between but he didn't move back………finally, getting a hold on my waist, he give me that challenging smile……….i was just observing his expression when I felt something move down from my hairs
"Ah" seeing my open face, he just grins and left leaving me in that pool of paint
Making a bad face, I left to have a shower…………..getting out i came outside to see armaan moving things into place keeping some distance with the wall….Later we painted and decorated Pihu's room and then it was turn of my room….
"Armaan, you wait here……..i will be back in sometime" Nodding, he jumped on the couch and getting a hold on the remote….
Seeing him like that, a smile just broke on my face and get into my room………
Getting through some old stuff, I caught along while shifting…….my old shirts, some shoes and stuff……….i get them packed in a box…...and right then, I get a hold on the album
My wedding album…..
Opening it, I just get lost in those old memories…………my days which were so full of love, full of fun…………seeing the first picture, she sigh…….
How content and pleased i was looking getting him in my life……..he was standing behind me holding my shoulders…………..as a sign of assurance that he will support me, no matter what….
A tear drop on the picture, as i sweetly sit on the bed placing the album infront of me…..how fondly i saw that album first time with him……..how much i used to adored our couple, considering it one of the amazing ones of the world
Watching it silently, collecting some of the sweetest memories of my past…………
Feeling an arm on my shoulder, shuddered, i look up to find armaan looking seriously at me…..sitting down beside me, he look down at the pictures and then back at me, holding some questions
"He is abhi, Abhimanyu……….My ex-husband" clearly stating, I wipe my tears…
"Ex-husband??" he looked shocked……….then I realized I never told him before and he never brought up this question
"Yes, we divorced two years back" hearing my next line, he looked more surprised
"I….i am……."
"Don't need to be sorry armaan……….i am happy that we did get separated….otherwise, we should have been blaming each other for stuff which should be not so meaningful" He caressed my shoulder lightly as that really helped me get calm
"But why?" he said almost in a whisper
"Same old story, his mother wanted a grandson who can continue her family name……..old traditional baseless thoughts….." closing the album with a thump…..i take out the anger..
Getting my situation, he just hug me………...leaving me with no choice but just to cry……how I always wanted a shoulder to cry upon…..i never cry in front of my sister and parents as I wasn't wrong with my decision…….my daughter is the world most precious thing for me………….i never can even think of loosing her……
After a bit, he broke the hug and wipes my tears….
"Ok, it was a lot emotional" he said making a weird face that automatically brings a smile on my face
"That's great…………ok…." He too smiled and then suddenly hit his forehead
"Look, in your weepy weepy talk……..i totally forget why I came here" I looked daggers at him
"Now, you need reasons to come here" he smiled at my outspoken…….it was first time I think, I get over………not over actually, but something that I never expected to say so soon
"hmmm, well actually……….this time it is"
"What's that?" I shoot quickly as he smirks
"Well, you very new friend is a very talented photographer if you don't know…………and finally acknowledging my greatness, my seniors bow down and gifted me a promotion" He get up and said beating his own drums……………I started laughing looking at his proud gesture and he too laugh
"Ya, really"
"No" making a silly face he again sits on the bed and said
"Actually, that was really hard to achieve this…………"
"Congrats" extending my hand, I praised him…
"No, not like this………….there is a promotion party and you are coming" he was fully determined that shocked me
"No, I can't"
"I am not taking any of your No's………….you are coming and that's final………" getting up he went to the door saying
"Its next Sunday, so be prepare yourself………" leaving me sitting in the same shocked posture…he left

"Wow Ridzi………...its looking really cool" di smiled looking around as Rohan called from inside
"Mom, see Pihu's room…………come here" hearing him, di get into the room and gasp
"Beautiful."
"Mom, I too want one like this" Rohan said determinedly
Smiling, I ruffled his hairs as he looked annoyed
"how you did this Ridzi?" Looking up at di, I started
"Not alone di………….i told you about armaan, he helped me a lot" di smiled, may be on thinking that I am involving in someone but it wasn't true,,,,,,,,,,,,is it??
"Ok then, now I think, I should really meet him……………bring him home some day……it will be fun" now I am confirmed, I was right thinking that…..but I didn't get the courage to disappoint her..
How she wanted me to start my life again………….she tried getting me into some relationship but I think, I am a complete bored personality…that's why many backed off, and the other remain…..i backed off at the time
But this time, he is someone with whom, my brain don't allow me to go with, but my heart…….i can't stop it thinking about him at times………and now, its getting frequent as whenever I saw Pihu's room or get into my room………every corner of my house hold some of his memories…his touch………his care
Even my body………….how he caressed my arms………how his hands move at my back to calm me down……it still send shivers whenever I think about it……..
Not holding myself, I decided that atleast I should give it a chance as I don't want to loose a sweet friend like him….
I don't dare to do that….
