Hello all.. Again I am sorry.. .I promised, I would update real soon, but couldn't because of my assignments and projects... Okay then let's not waist time, and get started!
This chapter is for my gadadhari bheem.. .Namiksfan, Dolly, my don...this one is for you bae!
It will be from Suman's POV.
Chapter 10
"He knows".
.. Did I hear it right.. ..all my body was getting numb!
How could he...what was he thinking of me... A mere puppet, who would dance on his tune! "You better watch out Mr Shravan Malhotra, you have no idea what you have done... " I mumbled under my breath!
"Kya hua Suman beta.. Bol kuch.. " urged mamiji.
"Main iska answer Shravan and Pushkar ke samne dena chahungi... " I gritted my teeth!
"Fair enough! To tum chalo humare sath.. " said Nirmala mam.
"Aise kaise, humein bhi to pata chalna chahiye na... " Mamiji complained!
"Usse jane do Manju... Hum baad mein sun lenge... " Nanu supported me with a little smile on his face !
"Shravan.. " Ramnath sir knocked,
Pushkar opened the door.. "Sumo ne kya kaha papa? "
"She is here, she said, she would answer infront of you two! " said Mam.
I entered into the room only to be found, Shravan, sitting there facing the glass window!
"Hey... " I said cheerfully!
Shravan's whole posture stiffened!
"I am talking to you... "
This time he turned! Still not looking at my eyes!
"Sumo tu.. " Pushkar tried to interven!
"Kya Pushkar...I am here to give my answer! Sir aur Mam ne jo rishta leke aye the... Abhi mein usika jawab dungi... "
I looked at four of them! Everyone was looking at me except for Shravan!
"So my answer is YES! I am ready to marry Pushkar! "
Someone gasped! I didn't bother to look who! I was only looking at him! He still didn't look at me! But he had stopped breathing altogether!
"Sumo, yeh tu... " Pushkar mumbled, looking at Shravan!
"Kyun sir aur mam ne tujhse puch ke rishta nahin le gaye... Kyun sir...mam aap dono ne isse pucha nahin? "
"Haan... Matlab... " Mam stammered!
"To kab karni hai shaadi... Aap log kaho to main isi waqt Pushkar se shaadi karne k liye taiyaar hoon! "
"Suman, you want to marry Pushkar! "
"Yes sir... I want to marry Pushkar ...MnR company ke malik Mr Ramnath Malhotra k kisi bhi bete se shaadi karne k liye taiyaar hoon! What else do I need! Money, property, fame to Pushkar se shaadi karke bhi milegi! Kyun... "
This time, Shravan looked at me... His face said nothing, but his eyes were showing the hurricane he had been going through!
"Kyun Shravan... Why aren't you saying anything! Tell me am I right or wrong! "
"Sumooo" he whispered!
He sounded so broken, so devastated, that I had to fought with the urge of going by his side to hold him!
"What... "
"Sumo tu yeh... Sumo...mumma papa ne to... " Pushkar hurried..
"Test kar rahe the kyun... "
Again someone gasped! Again I didn't bother to look who!
" Dekh Sumo, Tu to janti hai Alisha ne kya kiya bhaiya k sath! Mumma papa darr gaye the basss! Isiliye... Bhaiya ki halat kaisi ho gayi thi... You know that right! Aise kaise you can react like this yaar! Please samajh! " Pushkar tried to reason!
But I was way more furious to be reasoned!
"Main samajh rahi hoon! I inderstood at that very moment, when sir and mam asked to marry you.. And I am not angry with them Pushkar ...main naraz hoon tum dono se!"
"Isme Shravan ki koi galti nahin hai beta! He warned us... But I didn't listen, I was worried beta... How can I not be... That Alisha ruined him! To see, own child, in so much pain, agony is not easy beta! I just wanted to know whether you are the right one for my son! " sir sighed!
"I understand sir, as I said, I am not angry at you! But Shravan, how could he! Usne ek baar bhi nahin socha, jo ladki sab ke samne uska hath pakad sakti hai, woh ladki jaisi bhi ho, par usse kabhi dhoka nahin degi... May be he doesn't trust me enough!
Kyun Shravan... I told you na... Ki mujhe vaag na nahin aata... Phir bhi... Bass itna hi bharosa tha!
And yes tu.. Sabse zyada mujhe is baat ka bura laga ki tu kaise maan gaya Pushkar! Aur koi na sahi... Tu to janta tha na mujhe itne saalon se! Tune bhi... " Angry tears were rolling down , I tried to wipe, but again it replaced with fresh ones!
"To ab yun hai ki... I have to leave Mr Shravan Malhotra... I don't think I am needed here anymore! "
"Sumo" ...his voice sounded hoarse!
"What... You want to say something... Thik hai bolo... " I tried to be nonchalant!
"Sorry.. Please... " he whispered!
"Sorry kyun... Test kar rahe the na... Main to paas ho gayi.. You should be happy nahin? "
"Sumo please aise mat bolona please..."
"I am so done with you...Shravan... I am sorry! I think we should not continue our realationship! If you can't trust me, just because you had a failed relationship, I am sorry I can't take that anymore! " I was way too torn to see how much my words were hurting him!
"You are breaking up with me... " he whispered!
"You have given me no option Shravan! I know may be I am reacting way too much..."
"You are breaking up with me... " this time he yelled...
I was so flabbergasted by his sudden outburst, that I didnt know what to say for a whole minute!
"Why Suman... Itni jaldi. ...thik hai... Jao...I don't need anyone! Go.. .chali jao... ".
I didn't know what to do... I turned...
Suddenly, I heard, splintering noise of broken glasses! I turned to find, Shravan had thrashed a vase, and a side table simultaneously! And he had grabbed a fruit cutter...
"Shravannn" sir and mam instantly went by his side... pushkar was trying hard to keep him in that wheelchair!
"Shravann" I whispered... And I ran towards him, without thinking about the surroundings I sat on his lap, and encircled him into my embrace!
"What are you doing... Stop it please... "
"I told you.. I won't be able to live if you leave me" he was still shivering out of rage!
Meanwhile, pushkar snatched the knife and looked at me, I nodded! All of them went out of the room!
"Yeh achcha hai... Ghalti bhi khud karo... Aur todfod bhi khud karo... " I tried to lighten the situation..
He snuggled into my arm... "Sumooo... Mar jaunga main... Maine maana kya tha sabko... But... I knew...you would never leave me... I... " he was crying like a child... What could I say...
"Shravan I..."
"You were breaking up with me Suman... Do you even know, what I felt that moment... "
"Mujhe gussa kuch zyada hi aata hai... Aur gusse mein.. Main kuch bhi bolti hoon.. .It was just pure insult, what I felt, Shravan! I know Alisha ne jo kiya tumhare saath woh bhulna namumkin hai, par that doesn't mean, you can compare me to that vile... " I sighed!
It wouldn't be that easy to be with Shravan as I thought it would; the spectre of Alisha would always follow us!
That very moment, a thought that passed through my mind! Was he always like this! I had seen him like this, when Alisha came here to invite him for her marriage! His angry elephant mode, destructing his surrounds! Was there no difference between me and Alisha!
I felt bad.. Real bad...
"Shravan... You really think I am like her! Is there no difference... "
"You know Sumo, Alisha came into my life when I had everything! And you came into my life when I have nothing to give you... You know how it feels... As if you are caged into a dark black room for months, and suddenly a bright ray of light, entered that room, brightening every corner of that room! You are that light for me! How could you think I would compare you to Alisha, or to anyone else! " he sighed!
"Hmmm...it just good to hear... " I laughed!
"So we are set right... No more fighting, no more tears... Hmmm! "
"Nope! "
"So can I get a kiss... "
"I thought you are not gonna ask... I am actually dying to kiss you.. You know you kiss really well... " I winked!
He chuckled and kissed me with all the longing!
"I should leave now... "
"I don't want you to leave! "
"Ghar pe sabko batana bhi to hai na Shravan! Warna woh log meri shaadi pushkar se hi karwa denge! " I laughed,!
I got up from his lap and I stumbled upon something, which made me land on the floor, with my arms thrown out instinctively to catch my fall, into the jagged shards of glass! I felt the searing, stinging pain that ran from my wrist to the crease inside my elbow!
"Sumooo.. .oh my god! Maa, papa, Pushkar ..." I heard him yelling...
Seeing so much blood, my stomach twitched...I hadn't eaten anything from morning, it made the situation worse! I felt like I was going to pass out... Suddenly a strong pair of hands encircled me!
Dazed and disoriented, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm to the owner of those strong arms...
"Shravan... You are on your feet... " and I sank into his arms!
Ok that's it... It's a long update... As long as I could manage to write... Tell me whether you liked it or not, or which part you liked; or which part you didn't!
P. S. Thank you all for your comments and messages, those really means a lot!
