Chapter 39

• Hearing anjali’s words armaan was the first one, who came out from the shock,
• A:’’par kyun bhabhi I mean riddhima ko kyun jana aise apke sath matlab aise last minute ticket bhi tou nahin milege, yeh programme kab bna.’’
• Armaan does not know how to put his feelings in words; she has to leave like seriously, this comes to him like a vague feeling. Riddhima was in same position just the difference she is not reacting to this situation. Somewhere she knows she has to leave if now after 9 months, but till that time she wants to spend her each and every second with him only, seeing him like this all four of them surpassed their smiles but they do knows why he is reacting like this. He is smitten by her but not ready to admit.
• At:’’are armaan tu aise kyun behave kar raha hain kisi jang mein nahin ja rahi hain riddhima. Humare sath tere apne hi ghar ja rahi hain remember.’’
• He mocked him, armaan sighed in relief
• A:’’bhai lekin mujhe uske jane se issue nahin hain par vo tickets kaise arrange hongi itni jaldi. Means ap logon ko tou bahut pehle se booked hain.’’
• He tried to keep himself calm as much as he can
• An:’’we know armaan, humein bhi nahin btaya tha par mujhe raste mein hi mom ka phone aya, actually riddhima ka pehla karva chauth hain dadi ma chahti hain ki yeh sab reet riwaz se ho. Aur fir Diwali hain, uske shadi ke bad pehle festivals hain tou apni sari khawish puri karna chahti hain.’’
• Anjali told him the main reason why she is being called at home, hearing this armaan is surprised is she going to fast for him? His eyes for a second landed at riddhima, whose eyes met with him, don’t know why but she blinked her eyes that give armaan answer to his questions.
• A:’’thek hain main tickets dekhta hun fir kal rat ki flight ki.’’
• He finally give in seeing he is having no excuse to stop her, riddhima has no words for this.
• An:’’good aur han apni bhi dekh lena.’’
• A:’’par meri kyun ab?’’
• Ra:’’yar armaan tu itna buddhu hain lagta to nahin hain, riddhima ka fast khulvane kaun jayega.’’
• Rahul tapped him on his head while mocking him
• A:’’oh acha par main fir Diwali par nahin aa paunga mujhe itni long holidays nahin milne vali.’’
• At:’’vo tu mom se bat kariyo. We are out from this.’’
• Armaan nods and moved to his room in the pretext of checking the ticket for riddhima, while riddhima moved to kitchen saying she will make some light snack for everyone. But everyone does notice the disappointment in both of their eyes.
• M:’’bhabhi mujhe dono ke liye acha nahin lag rha hain.’’
• An:’’mujhe bhi par mere hisab se karwa chauth bilkul sahi time par aya hain. Shayad yeh duriyan armaan ko uski feelings realize kara den.’’
• Ra:’’hope se bhabhi nahin tou ainve hi vo apni baat par ada rahega doctor vali.’’
• At:’’sab sahi hoga mujhe riddhima ke pyar par vishwas hain.’’
• Atul said and everyone looked at him with open mouth
• At:’’kya aise kya dekh rahe ho jaise tumhe nahin pta come on guy’s riddhima ki ankhon mein saf dikhai deta hain ki vo mere adiyal bhai se pyar karti hain.’’
• He said casually which all three of them might know in their hearts but never talk about it.
• An:’’tumhe pata hain atul isliye I love you tum baton ko uljhate nahin ho sab seedha bolte ho.’’
• Ra:’’so now hope sab best ho jaye in donow ke liye.’’
• With the smiles all four of them moved to their own works.
• On the other side riddhima was in kitchen thinking about this
• R:’’main nahin jana chahti hun, mujhe yahin rehna hain armaan ke pas, 9 months hi to reh gaye hain mere armaan ke sath rehne ke main iska ek ek pal unko sath jeena chahti hun yehi tou reh jayega mere sath mere yahan se jane ke bad. Meri puri zindagi in chand yadon ke sath hi tou katne vali hain. Par mana bhi nahin kar sakti hun kya hi bolungi main, unki nazar mein yeh zaruri hain.’’
• She just wiped the tears that come in her eyes thinking about this. Here in armaan’s room armaan was sitting in front of the laptop for booking riddhima’s ticket, as soon he checked there are available tickets
• A:’’kya yeh ticket kaise available ho sakti hain yeh tou honi hi nahin chahiye thi. Ho kya gaya hai mujhe kaise behave kar raha hun main. Mujhe uske jane se itna gussa kyun aa raha hain. Main kyun usko nahin jane dena chahta hun, kyun? Kuch mahino bad jab humara divorce hoga tab bhi tou jayegi hi na vo. Aaj mujhe uske kuch din dur jaana hi itna bother kar raha hain kya krun main?’’
• He was frustrated with emotions, feelings, don’t know what’s going on with him, and just know that he does not want her to go. But alas he knows he has to do it. So he finally booked riddhima’s ticket. At the same time riddhima entered in the room with coffee and sandwich for him
• R:’’armaan ap upar aye tou yahi baith gaye main kabse apka wait kar rahi thi neeche, yeh lijiye apki coffee aur grilled sandwich, apko bhukh lagi hogi na. fir ap rest kar lijiye.’’
• Riddhima said while placing the tray on center table, seeing her armaan’s frustration calms. What an irony few days back seeing her, armaan’s temper rose but now her become like smoothening wind to him
• A:’’thank you riddhimaa. Acha maine tumhari ticket book kar di hain. Tumhe whatsapp kar dunga ya kal print out la dunga.’’
• R:’’ticket mill gayi?’
• A:’’mill gayi.’’
• How both of them wished, ticket should not be there but destiny has its own plans. As both of their eyes met, they speak emotions, but today one emotion is same in their eyes riddhima’s will to not go, armaan’s to not send her.
• Riddhima break the eye contact
• R:’’main humara luggage unpack kar deti hun.’’
• Armaan just nodded but before she can move to unpack the luggage armaan holds her wrist and riddhima surprisingly looked at him
• A:’’kar lena bad mein abhi baitho yahan mere pas, thoda sa sandwich tum bhi lo.’’
• He does not know why he did that but he want to do that. He wants to spend so much time with her. Riddhima nods without any words, she too yearn this. As they sit and have their sandwich, both of them sit in silent
• R:’’armaan main ramdin ko kal bol dungi parso se thoda milk dekar jayega. Aur apke khane ka kya karenge ap?’’
• Riddhima who is worried for him asked out of blue
• A:’’main manage kar lunga tension mat lo fir kuch hi dino ki tou bat hain fir tou tum aa hi jaogi vapis.’’
• R:’’armaan kuch din kahan hain pure 15 din hain karva chauth mein.’’
• Riddhima speaks up looking at him; armaan was like what 15 days how he will live without her,
• A:”’kya 15 din?’’
• Riddhima nods silently both know they cannot do anything about it but were dreading right now it’s just matter of 15 days that is making them feel so damn bad what will happen when riddhima will have to leave for forever. Thinking of this mere thought makes them vulnerable, but armaan is armaan never going to show it
• A:’’chalo koi na fir tum aa hi jaogi tab tak main jaise pehle manage karta hain vaise kar lunga.’’
• Riddhima nods she just forgets before their marriage he was living a bachelor life and he is pro to it. But don’t know why that makes her feel bad. After that both went silent riddhima left from there, for the other chores.
• Its evening time
• Riddhima was busy in preparing the dinner when Anjali comes in the kitchen, in afternoon she and atul with aarav and muskaan left for shopping, armaan and Rahul went to hospital. She came back just a half hour back, she entered in the kitchen and finds riddhima was doing something on grindstone, seeing her she was astonished who used this in today’s world, seeing her riddhima asked
• R:’’are bhabhi ap kuch chahiye mujhe keh dete ap.’’
• An:’’mujhe kuch nahin chahiye riddhima main tou bas yahan tumhari help karne ayi thi. Par yeh tum kar kya rahi ho.’’
• R:’’kuch nahin bhabhi vo chatni bna rahi hun.’’
• An:’’I can see that riddhima. Par yeh sil batte (grindstone) par kyun mixer mein kyun nahin?’’
• Anjali asked but she got her answer immediately as her eyes scanned the kitchen, there are no appliances just a gas stove, coffee maker and fridge. It’s still a bachelor den, she is frustrated ok armaan does not love her or married her by his own choice but she deserved basic necessities.
• R:’’bhabhi vo.’’
• Riddhima don’t know what to say she does not have any words and seeing her fumbling with words, Anjali is irritated more, still she is thinking to cover armaan. At the same time armaan enters the kitchen that just came back from hospital
• A:’’hi bhabhi hi riddhima how are you riddhima ek glass pani milega.’’
• Riddhima nods and fetch him a glass of water as armaan gulped the water
• An:’’armaan this is not done maine tumse yeh expect nahin kiya tha tune riddhima ki halat dekhi hain.’’
• As Anjali speak up armaan looked at riddhima could not able to understand what she is talking about
• A:’’bhabhi I am not getting you.’’
• R:’’bhabhi rehne dijiye na please unki ismein koi galti nahin hain.’’
• An:’’riddhima chup. Armaan tumne abhi tak kitchen ke basic appliances bhi nahin liye. Had karte ho tum kaise manage kar rahi hain riddhima? Dekho sil batte par chatni imagine nahin kar pa rahi hun main aur yeh I guess 3 mahino se aise hi manage kar rahi hain. Microwave, oven, mixer, juicer kuch bhi nahin yani yeh sab yeh lakdi hath se manage kar rahi hain. Not done armaan.’’
• Riddhima looked at armaan feeling so horrified; she can’t let him angry again. Armaan looked at her then at kitchen the grindstone, yes Anjali is right, he never thinks about it,
• A:’’ I am sorry bhabhi.’’
• An:’’you should be armaan. Seriously armaan tumhe na is ladki ka thankful hona chahiye aise bhi yeh kitna acha khana bna rahi hain. Please ab meharbani kar ke is kitchen ka huliya sudharo. Come on armaan patni hain tumhari kuch zimevari hain ke nahin tumhari uski taraf.’’
• Armaan nods he actually feels so guilty seeing this then only atul called Anjali and she left from there leaving them alone. Fearing of his anger
• R:’’sorry armaan par maine sachi mein maine bhabhi se kuch nahin kaha vo aye aur mujhe dekh kar khud hi andaza lga liya sorry.’’
• She said while looking at her intently praying he is not going to get angry with her, armaan covers the gap between them and
• A:’’shh riddhima mafi mujhe mangni chahiye na ki tumhe. Maine tumhe 3 mahino se kaise rehne par mazbur kiya hua hain. I am so sorry. Par sachi batau mujhe is bat ka waqai mein kabhi dhayan nahin aya ki kitchen mein basic amenities bhi nahin hain. I swear on mom, maine intentionally nahin kiya yeh.’’
• He said looking straight in her eyes; she can see the guilt in his eyes
• R:’’safai mat dijiye janti hun apne yeh sab jan boojh kar nahin pata.’’
• A:’’par fir bhi meri galati hain riddhima mujhe tumse puchna chahiye tha ki tumhe kuch chahiye tou nahin aur tum in sab se hi mujhe itna delicious food banati rahi. Aaj ke time mein aise in sab cheezon par kam karna mushkil hain par tumhe mere karan karna pada sorry.’’
• Armaan said pointing to grindstone and in that process he touched the green chilly over it, it burned his hand
• A:’’ouch.’’
• R:’’kya hua bahut teekhi hain kya armaan.’’
• Riddhima immediately took his finger under the water and start blowing on it. Armaan can see the tension in her eyes, he smiled as riddhima was working in the kitchen her hair tied in the messy bun some of her strands falling on her face. He himself doesn’t know when his hands move near her face and with exquisite care he brushed it back from her cheek and tucked it delicately behind her ear. She stilled a soft sigh escaping her lips as she looked in his eyes deeply. She leaned ever so softly into his touch, and she turned her head, but he was so much into her that he put his finger under her chin and make her look at himself, that’s’ it world stopped for riddhima, right there, his gaze hold hers, armaan leaned in not reaching to her lips instead his lips pressed a tender kiss to her temple, then lingered to her cheek just below her eyes, causing her to close her eyes. A breath of affection that sent shiver ran down in her spine. As he pulled her, riddhima’s hands instinctively rose to his shirt, her palms flattening the warm fabric of his shirt. She felt the steady beat of his heart beneath her fingers. Their eyes remained locked, a silent world existing between them, full of unspoken promises and deep abiding love.
• A (whispered just over her lips):’’I am sorry for everything.’’
• Before riddhima can say anything she heard footsteps and she move away from him. Yes she was right there comes atul in the kitchen
• At:’’riddhima main vo yeh keh soch rha tha ki raat ko hum ice cream khane chalte hain.’’
• Riddhima just nods to him as her face is red due to shyness. Then his gaze fell on armaan who was standing there
• At:’’armaan tum kab aye hospital se?’’
• A:’’bhai abhi thodi der pehle bas abhi coffee lene aya tha.’’
• At:’’hmm chal aa ja bahar baithte hain.’’
• Armaan nods and both of them move outside leaving riddhima alone. She tried hard to put relax on her frantic heart beats. He has always such effect on hers. Finally she managed to calm herself down and then she prepared the dinner.
• After the dinner as they decided armaan do take all of them to ice cream parlour for the ice cream treat, riddhima is involve with little aarav who is sitting in her lap. Armaan’s eyes were looking at her only from the mirror as she is settled beside him with Anjali. As soon as they reach the parlor, all of them get their ice creams. Riddhima is totally engrossed in having chit chat with Anjali and atul most of the time she is engrossed in aarav doing little mischievous things with him. Armaan no doubt is happy with seeing her smiling so peacefully but don’t’ know why he was feeling a pinch of jealous that she is not attending him. God knows why he wants her attention; he was just answering his bhai and bhabhi’s questions. His full focus was on riddhima only who is sitting opposite him. His own mint chocolate favorite seemed not to attract him today. In this moment he shifted on his seat a little with this his knee brushed with hers under the table, feeling this riddhima do look at him for once then smiling at him she again engrossed with Anjali bhabhi. Just then a young man passed past through their table, he was busy in his phone, in the crowd he unintentionally bumped into riddhima’s chair making his hand brushed through her shoulder. Riddhima was startled at his touch, but it was unintentional move, so the boy mumbled ‘’ sorry’’ to her quickly. But armaan feels jealous with this, his smile changed into anger, he gives a tough look to the guy as he walks away. Then holding riddhima’s hands in his drawn in his jealousy he asked
• A:’’riddhima tum thek ho kahin lagi tou nahin?’’
• Riddhima was surpised it was nothing but he was reacting weirdly and the way he holds her hand it was quite tight hold, she can sense the ping of jealousy in that hold.
• R:’’main thek hun armaan.’’
• Armaan nods his head but don’t know why he did not released her hand, atul Anjali did notice this thing and they know armaan is turning possessive about her. Knowing armaan they know if he is turning possessive about her, he already falls for riddhima, just he has to realize his love for her.
• After the ice cream treat they came home and moved to their room as they called it for a night. As riddhima comes outside after changing in her night dress, armaan who was near his wardrobe banged in riddhima. The result riddhima’s hands lands on his bare chest and armaan’s hands protectively lands on her waist. Armaan’s skin was warm beneath her hand; she could hear his heart beat under her hand. His grip tightened around her waist possessively, riddhima’s eyes drawn to armaan’s eyes, today armaan’s possessive hold crackled with unspoken tension between them. His fingers gently brushing a stray wisp of hair from her face, tucking it behind her ear. His touch stayed there for a moment, tracing the curve of her jaw, before his thumb slightly caressed her ear lobe making her nails dig on his chest. Armaan’s eyes fell on the black thread around her neck, that don’t know gave him utmost satisfaction that she is his only. With this his eyes traced her long collar bone, that milky skin a droplet of water moving on makes his senses out of control next moment riddhima feels his hot lips on her collar bone sucking that water droplet and riddhima just moaned his name under her breath
• R:’’armaan.’’
• Hearing his name, he lingered there against her skin for seconds before slowly pulling his head up his blue orbs once again met her green ones, a dark desire in both of their eyes. Suddenly he heard a loud noise of his phone. He pulled apart from riddhima but before that he pecked her forhead with soft lips. Moving away from her putting his shirt he answered the phone. After answering the call
• A:’’riddhima mujhe kuch der ke liye base par jana hain kuch emergency hain tum so jana.’’
• He informed her as he got call from the military base
• R:’’ap kab tak aoge armaan.’’
• A:’’kuch keh nahin sakta tum lock lga kar so jao bye.’’
• He rushed downstairs and picking his car keys he was about to leave when
• R:’’pahunch kar agar possible hua tou 1 message kar dijiyega.’’
• She said and armaan caressing her hairs left from there. Locking the door ridddhima moved upstairs to their room. Entering the room the moment they shared just a seconds ago makes her flushed
• R:’’itna aage badh kar kya armaan kabhi peeche ja payenge? Jitna pas vo mere aa rahe hain kya vo sahi hai unke liye. Mere liye tou is se sahi kuch nahin ho sakta kyunki main unse pyar karti hun. Aur apne pure tan man se unhe apna chuki hun. Par armaan unka kya aaj unki chuhan mein ajeeb sa haq mehsus hua mujhe.’’
