PART 5: The Uninformed Honeymoon
At Chawl:
Raghav was sitting on the only sofa in the house with vitthal, and pakhya was sitting on bed, kalpi was standing near pakhya, kamla was standing near kitchen, everyone there was silent because every sort of possible conversation has already over, now they have nothing to talk. But Raghav was sitting there still in a hope that someone will ask him to stay there, after all he was finding another chance to be with Kalpi. Raghav's head and eyes have already wandered in whole area, left to right, right to up, up to down, no place was left, and with a smile throughout. Kalpi in her mind already know that what Raghav is waiting for, afterall, who knows him better than her.
Raghav (in his mind): How rude these Jadhav's has became in one day, not a single family member is asking me to stay, when I am eagerly waiting for proposal.
Suddenly Kamla broke the silence.
Kamla : Raghav baba, I want to ask you something, actually want to request you something, will you agree?
Raghav(in his mind): Here you go my Kamla maa, you are the best, now just ask me to stay here.
Raghav : (Smile on lips with jumping heart) Sure, Kamla maa, ask for anything, I can do anything for your happiness.
Kamla : Thank you haa, Raghav baba. So, please don't come to take back Kalpi for 4 days. She is married now, can't come here daily, so we want to spend more and more time with her, who knows when she will come back here.
Raghav has no expression to show, he was in mood to throw all the things, but he actually can't express this emotion to Jadhav's. So all he was looking was expressionless. Kalpi on other side was about to burst out in laughter, but controlled herself, but she has no control over her smile so she turned her face to the wall to hide her smile. Pakhya noticed Kalpi's reaction, and for the fact he was the one who could understand Raghav's condition the best, afterall he was also young man. And from inside Pakhya wanted to do something for Raghav, but it was not possible for him to handle his Aayi -baba's dumbness.
Raghav : (with a fake smile)umm. Sure! kamla maa, Afterall she is your daughter.
Kamla: (with a big smile) Thank you Raghav baba , I know it, you will understand, now I don't want to force you to stay. You run a big business empire, the people there will be needing you, so you can go now.
Hearing this Raghav's heart was heavy as someone told him to get out rudely. Before he left the Chawl, he turned 7 to 8 times to take glimpse of Kalpi. Kalpi was herself not that happy to look her Raghav so sad, but still she waved him bye with a smile, because she knew for now her smile is
the only thing that can work as ice on him.

At Shopping Mall:
Pakhi was out in a Mall, she was wearing a blue short skirt touching her knees and a white loose top with loose full sleeves. She was looking for foot wear shop, she already has bought 3 or 4 dresses. Then her eyes stopped at a mannequin wearing a blue shirt, that reminded her the incident when she tried to gift Raghav the same shirt in look, but Raghav refused to take that. Her eyes filled with tears and she rushed to leave the Mall hiding her tears. Before exiting she bumped into someone and all her bags fallen down , the man helped her in picking up bag again. Pakhi was very much in her own thoughts, she didn't bother to look at the man for once and left without saying thank you, the man was about to say something but he was too late to call. The man was none other than Sammy, he was confused, about Pakhi's reaction but he was very well aware of her life so he ran behind her. Pakhi was closing, back door of her car after putting her bags there. Sammy came and was standing about ten hands apart behind her.
Sammy : Pakhi!.
Pakhi : (turned in confusion)Sammy.
Sammy: You didn't recognize me when you bumped into me, I guess. So came here to remind you, if you have got a memory loss.
Pakhi : (with fake smile) I am sorry, I was into something else, just haven't seen you .
Sammy : That's ok!, umm.. Pakhi, once you told me that you love horror movies. Actually this Friday, a Hollywood horror movie is realizing in Gold theater, would you like to come with me, this Friday.
Pakhi : (moving her eyes left right, like searching for excuse) Sammy!, Actually I, umm... I.
Sammy : (interrupting her in middle) Please don't say no, I have no friends, who shows interest in horror movies except you. Please come, I promise movie will be more horrifying than me.
Pakhi : (with a big genuine smile) hhmm, if movie is horrifying than you it must be best horror movie. Ok! I will come, Friday 6 pm done.
Sammy : Ok! Done! I will pick you up from your home.
Sammy was scratching his head when Pakhi left. He was himself not sure about what he has in his heart for Pakhi, care or love.
~oOo~
After 4 days (Friday):
Kalpi and Raghav were returning to mansion in car. Raghav was all silent, without any word. Kalpi tried to talk many times by starting with "I missed you" but all in vain, Kalpi thought he was upset because they didn't talk properly in past 4 days. Kalpi tried to talk with him many times, but her family was showering all their love like she will never go there again, Jadhav's were never leaving her alone.
When they reached their room Raghav moved to cupboard and started taking out his clothes, then thrown them on bed, then he took out a bag and started arranging that clothes in it. Kalpi with confusion was moving back and forth Raghav.
Kalpi : What are you doing?
Raghav: Don't waste time take out your clothes too, from cupboard, and arrange them in bag.
Kalpi : Are we going somewhere?
Raghav : Honeymoon.
Kalpi : What? But we didn't ask anyone, I mean we didn't ask mom.
Raghav : Yes, we didn't and we are not going to ask anyone, because if we will, I am sure people will find 1000 excuses to keep you away from me.
Kalpi : But what we will say to mom, where we are going.
Raghav: I will manage that, you have to just keep your mouth shut for that. Now, put your clothes in bag.
Kalpi : (while arranging her clothes in bag)But where we are going?
Raghav : USA.
Kalpi : What? Who goes to USA for honeymoon? People goes Switzerland, Paris like places for honeymoon.
Raghav was shocked hearing this from Kalpi, the girl who never bought a single thing of his choice without looking at price tag, was talking about honeymoon in Switzerland and Paris type places.
Raghav : Ok! For your happiness we will go there for second honeymoon, but right now I just need time with you, and my business meeting in USA is going to be my excuse for that.
Kalpi : hhmm, But my passport and visa.
Raghav : Your passport was all ready, since you were worked in Singhania constructions, and visa, I've arranged in last four days afterall you are Mrs. Singhania now.
And Raghav touched her nose with his fingertip, which made her blink her eyes.
~oOo~
Singhania Mansion (living room):
Kalpi was standing silently on a side, and controlling herself not to smile while listening to mom and son conversation.
Raghav : Mom, I and Kalpi are leaving for USA today, I have a business meeting there.
Gauri : You are going, I can understand, but why Kalpi.
Raghav : Because I need her, there, I have no one to handle my all works.
Gauri : Why? Where is Sammy?
Suddenly, Sammy entered in living room with dressing on his elbow. Kalpi was shocked to see this, but remain quite as Raghav has strictly warned her not to utter a single word.
Gauri : Sammy.
Raghav: See, there is Sammy, see his condition, how can he come with me like this, that's why I am saying, kalpi has to come with me.
Gauri : (raising one of her eyebrow)Sammy, how you got injured.
Sammy : (with dumb expression)I uh, actually I.
Sammy in his mind was having flashback when Raghav has called him and instructed him to come with fake dressing on his elbow.
Raghav : (interrupting in middle) Sammy has met with a minor accident yesterday, in office. Now spare him mom, and let kalpi go with me.
Gauri : Ok! .
Gauri (in her mind) : My son is behaving like a 10 year old kid, he don't know I am his mom. But whatever it is, it is good this way, because I love when he do such mischievous things, I feel like, I am getting back my lost days which I was supposed to be enjoying with my kid Chintu but didn't get chance.
~oOo~
In Flight:
From the moment Raghav and Kalpi sat in flight, Raghav was continuously holding Kalpi's hand with twined fingers of him and Kalpi. This was a little awkward for kalpi as everyone was staring them there, but Raghav was like "I don't care". When airhostess came to them to ask for something, she smiled looking at the couple. Kalpi noticed that and she tried to pull her hand but Raghav was in complete denial mode, he was not leaving her hand for a second. When airhostess moved from there, Kalpi looked at raghav.
Kalpi : (shying) Raghav please leave my hand naa, everyone is staring us.
Raghav : Who care's they are not our relatives, and we are not going to see any of them after leaving this flight. (Smiling)So I am pretty not interested in their opinions about us.
There was 4 airhostess in that flight, and they were making fun of the couple who were holding hands all the time, even they all one by one took one round to see that couple, by making excuse of offering something. And their smiling faces at each other after looking Raghav and Kalpi's hands together, was enough to tell kalpi, what they were smiling at. But kalpi was bound to be in this situation because of her over loving husband. When Raghav was sleeping, kalpi tried to sneak her hand out, but Raghav's hand was too strong even in sleep. Suddenly Kalpi's face has gone too close to Raghav's face, and she noticed how peacefully, he was sleeping. He was sleeping like a child with a cute smile on his face, there was a relief on his face of being happy. After that, for Kalpi, Raghav's hold remained no more just not a hold, it was love, irrevocable love. Kalpi smiled looking at their hands, after that throughout the journey, she never tried to remove her hand out of raghav's
hold.
~oOo~
At Theater:
It was all dark in theater, light coming from screen was only making, people's face visible partially, Pakhi and Sammy both were looking at screen but with different expressions. Sammy was excited while looking at screen, where Pakhi was making disgusted face. Pakhi turned her head to Sammy,
her eyes gone wide in shock looking at Sammy, she looked back at the screen with disgusted face. Suddenly she put her hand on her mouth, as she was feeling like vomiting. Keeping her hand on her mouth she ran outside to the washroom, looking at rushed Pakhi, Sammy came out of his excitement. He followed Pakhi, and waited for her outside the washroom. When pakhi came out, she was still with disgusted expression.
Sammy : What happened Pakhi? Are you alright?
Pakhi : (acted with her hands like she want to kill Sammy by pressing his throat)Sammy! I will kill you, for showing me this disgusting movie.
Sammy : But you said, you love horror movies.
Pakhi : (with anger)Horror movie, did you call this disgusting movie horror, everyone man was drinking blood eating flesh of other man. What was in that movie except flesh and blood, yuck.
Sammy: But.
Pakhi : (interrupting in middle with anger)urghh...! Boys will be boys after all. Don't utter a word, now drop me to my home, I want to
leave.
Sammy : Ok! Ok ! I got it, movie was disgusting, but I promised you a good time, so we can go for a dinner, what say.
Pakhi: I can't gulp a single bite, after watching this shit, I can only puke.
Sammy : Ok! We can't go for dinner but seriously, I am really sorry Pakhi. Please give me one chance to refresh your mood. I promise! I will not disappoint you this time.
Pakhi : (confused)Ok!
~oOo~
In America (Los Angelis)
Raghav and Kalpi landed off to Los Angelis (LA), and checked in into the Hotel booked by Raghav. The door of their room was blue, as the whole hotel interior was influenced by ocean effect. As they both entered room, what they have seen was beyond beautiful. Room was big and ocean blue in
color, far wall mostly glass with painted fish on it to give ocean effect. The pink light was falling bright on ocean blue floor, and creating purple shades in different parts of room. But the most attractive part of room was bed. It was round and looking like some big sea stone of grey color. The pillows were arranged in a manner like medium sized sea stones placed on the big one sea stone.
And the second most attractive part of room was artificial pond on the other side of room, decorated with green colored stones around. Kalpi's eyes were shining in surprise with such beautiful view, where Raghav was also quite impressed with interior.
Both Raghav and Kalpi after freshening up themselves were thinking about what to do next. Kalpi was very much interested in taking round of complete hotel from front to backyard, every part, she was very impressed with the beauty. Raghav was not really interested but looking at Kalpi's child like excitement, he agreed. And both came out of their room and started wandering in corridors. Suddenly an American girl with blonde hairs came in their front. She was wearing a black short dress, reaching at half of her thighs hardly, she shouted.
Girl : Ragz! Oh my gosh. I can't believe it.
Kalpi was shocked at her reaction and confused too, Raghav was shocked but with smile. Girl came forward and hugged Raghav very tight then kissed him on his cheek. Kalpi's expression
was no more of confused one, but of jealousy now.
Girl : (while leaving Raghav from hug)It's been too long, no contact, you are so mean.
Raghav : (smiling) Sorry! Sorry! Diana I am really sorry. I was going through lots of personal stuff.
Diana : It's ok! By the way how come here. (while looking at kalpi) And who is she.
Raghav : She is my lovely wife Kalpana and I am here for a business meeting. (while looking at kalpi)Kalpi she is Diana my college friend. (while looking back at Diana)But what you are doing here.
Diana : I work here, as a manager of housekeeping department, just now my shift is over, and I
am seeing you.
Raghav : Then you must be leaving, Sorry to disturb you.
Diana : Disturb! No ways, I was heading to the night club. Same Hotel owners are running that. It's my party time you know, I can't live a single day without parties. Well now you are here, so you are coming with me too.
Raghav : But.
Diana: No if no but, club is just next to this Hotel. No excuses and your wife will be coming too.
Diana held Raghav's hand and almost pulling, lead him to the club. Kalpi's jealousy was already ignited and this too much closeness was raising her brain temperature more and more. Kalpi unwillingly followed them.
Club as usual was full of loud music, and colorful lights shattering all over. It was not an atmosphere of Kalpi's comfort, but she was not interested in atmosphere now. Her full concentration was on the closeness of Raghav and Diana. Raghav has also noticed that, so he became a little conscious. Diana was sometimes holding his hands, sometime his arms. Raghav without really making Diana, realize his situation, was trying to keep her hands away from him. But he was failing as the lady was not really caring about anything other than her chit-chat and her hands were going on Raghav intentionally or unintentionally. Even Raghav's was not listening Diana, he was all busy in looking at Kalpi's eyes which was shooting fire balls in anger.
Diana requested for music of her choice to DJ and when it started, she pulled Raghav on dance floor, and started dancing with him more closely.
Lyrics of Song:
USA vich LA, te main LA di maina
India de ik munde naal, lad gaiya mere naina
Ud gaiya neend, Lut gaiya chaina
Meaning:
LA is in USA, then I am LA's Nightingale,
With one of the boy from India, my eyes met
My sleep has gone, my relief has gone
This song was working as petrol on fire for Kalpi. When song ended, Raghav came running to kalpi, almost breathless.
Raghav : I am sorry Kalpi, it's nothing like that, the way you are thinking.
Kalpi : (tightening her teeth) Did you see which song she requested.
Raghav : It's nothing like that, and I am sure, she don't even know the meaning of song really.
Diana : (interrupting them in middle) OMG, it was so much fun, why didn't you join us Kalpana. You know, I love this song, I have too many Indian friends they told me the meaning of this song. I just love it.
Kalpi rolled her eyes to Raghav, who has no more dare to face lightening effect of Kalpi's glare. All the remaining time in club was the same situation. When Raghav and Kalpi left the club, Kalpi was rushing towards their room. Raghav was running behind her, calling her name, and trying to
explain her.
Kalpi : (turned to raghav with anger) Now what has remained to explain, after marriage she is behaving with you like this, then how close you must have gone to her when you were in college. Now, why are you coming behind me go, go to your dear Diana, and play your, let's get sticky-sticky game with her. And yes keep her away from eyes of owners of Fevicol , if they will see her, they will sponsor her, as the most sticky thing of the world.
Kalpi turned and started to walk fast towards their room.
Raghav : You are overreacting now.
Kalpi : (without looking back )Yes, now I am the one who is over reacting, nothing was more than enough in what that lizard girl was doing with you.
When they reached their room, Kalpi slammed the door on Raghav's face. Raghav was helpless, he called her name many times but Kalpi was in no mood to listen. Raghav knocked on the door for half an hour but no reaction was coming from Kalpi. So, he left the door and went to the common
room of Hotel. After 10 or 15 minutes when Kalpi's anger cooled down a little she opened up the door, and finding there no Raghav, she started searching him. When Raghav was sitting in common room, working with his cellphone, Diana came to him.
Diana : What are you doing here?
Raghav : Work. But how come you here, I thought you left for your home.
Diana : Ya, Actually I forgot my flat key here, so came to take it back.
Kalpi was coming in search of Raghav, as she was about to enter common room, she looked at Raghav and Diana together, her anger was again on its heights. She left from there in anger. Raghav has seen Kalpi leaving.
Raghav : (with furious expression while leaving) Diana, I just remembered some really important work, see you later.
And Raghav was again following Kalpi leaving a confused Diana behind. Raghav kept calling Kalpi, which was completely ignored by Kalpi. They were again at the door, and once again door has been slammed on Raghav's face. But this time Kalpi didn't take more than 2 minutes to open the door, she let Raghav in. When Raghav entered in room she closed the door and without uttering a word she moved to bed and lied on it and closed her eyes to sleep. Raghav was helpless, he has no idea what to do, he tried to talk to Kalpi, but getting no response, he also closed his eyes to sleep.
~oOo~
Pakhi and Sammy were standing at a completely deserted place, with trees all round, and a lake with a wooden boat in front of them. The lake water was blackened due to night effect but stars were visible in it, a tree standing on edge of the lake was giving shade to the wooden boat, the
view was tropical to eyes.
Pakhi : Which place is this Sammy? I never came here before.
Sammy : You wanted to see a horror movie with ghosts naa. So, I bring you here, It's a haunted place, I heard about it from many people.
Pakhi looked at Sammy with a shock. Sammy winked at her and grinned. Pakhi smiled and looked down, then she moved towards boat and tried to sit in that, but edge of lake was making her loose her balance. Sammy came to her and gave her hands support of his hands. Pakhi looked at Sammy and smiled and Sammy smiled back to her. When they both sat on the boat, Sammy
started to drift it down the lake using the broad-bladed paddle which was already present in boat. As they were moving down the lake, Pakhi was enjoying the beauty and silence of night in middle of the lake, her face was showing a relief, a relief that she haven't experienced for long time. And Sammy was enjoying the beauty sitting in front of him, he was noticing every expression of her. Pakhi shifted her eyes to Sammy, and Sammy suddenly shifted his eyes to every direction other than Pakhi, to not let Pakhi know that he was drooling over her. But Pakhi has realized his eyes on her, long before, still she pretended like, she is unaware about it.
After the sail Sammy dropped Pakhi back to her home, none of them talked about anything after the sail. Their hearts were in unknown condition, sometimes it was beating fast, sometimes very slow. They said nothing to each other except goodnight. Pakhi was lost in her room in the thought's of night out with Sammy. What she has for Sammy in her heart, she was unaware, but she has accepted the fact, that after a long time, she actually felt like living today.
~oOo~
At Hotel (in LA day 2):
Whole day kalpi was ignoring Raghav, and Raghav was losing his patients now. He has handled angry kalpi before, he has handled jealous kalpi before, but it was becoming impossible for him to handle kalpi who was angry due to jealousy. He attended his meeting in afternoon, and in evening he was following kalpi in their room from bed to washroom and washroom to balcony and tried to talk with her but she was not even looking at him. In process of ignoring him kalpi lost her balance
on the edge of artificial pond and she was about to fall in it, but Raghav held her hand and pulled her to him, Now she was holding his shoulders and raghav was holding her waist, their eyes met and the moment froze there for few minutes. Raghav was about to say something but kalpi jerked him aside and moved to the bed, and started playing with her phone. Raghav rolled his eyes and took out his phone and texted something in it, and then calmly sat on couch and started to wait for something.
After few minutes, Hotel manager entered in their room with invitation of a party organized by the Hotel owners. He handed that invitation to Kalpi. It was Raghav's plan, he knew she will not talk to him alone but never let him down in front of crowd. So, he planned to talk with her, when there will be people around.
Manager : Mam, please do come and honour us with your presence there with Mr. Singhania, you both are chief guests of our party.
Kalpi : (with a fake smile, looking at raghav) Sure, we will come.
At party:
As they both entered in hall everyone was looking at them with amazement, as they were looking
beautiful together, they were looking like made in heaven couple. Raghav was wearing a tuxedo suit of black color, and was looking hot and the color of suit was giving him unmatchable charms. Kalpi was wearing a long purple gown held on her body with no more than 2 laces. The gown was body fit at the upper half and was giving an effect below the waist, like a purple water river was emerging from the centre of a mountain and flowing down through it in every direction. Her hairs were tied in a bun like a ball of curls at the top, and remaining part of beautifying the bun was done by the silver hair clip decorated with white stones.
Both of them joined people there by wishing Hello and then got busy in talks of here and there. After some time Raghav came to Kalpi and forwarded his hand to invite her to dance but she moved her eyes to her right. Then she noticed the 2 ladies of that side were forwarding their hands like they were ready for invitation of dance from Raghav. Kalpi turned her eyes to her left, and 3 ladies there was doing same thing. Kalpi's eyes gone wide and she immediately accepted Raghav's invitation by putting her hand on his hand, and they moved to the dance floor. They were dancing slowly with music of piano, Raghav with one hand lightly on Kalpi's waist other holding her other hand, and Kalpi with one hand on his shoulder and other in his hand. Kalpi has refused to meet his gaze and she was looking on either sides but not into his eyes.
Raghav : (taking a deep breath, whispered in kalpi's ears) Kalpi! I know how much you love me, and how you feel when some other women come closer to me. But that other women can't effect me anyway, because it's you, and only you, who makes me totally vulnerable when I look at you. You are the only one who can level me with your eyes, I feel like God has put an angel on earth just for me, who can rescue me from the depths of hell. And you don't know what it's like to be your angel, to have that love for you, (tightening his grip around her waist) please be there forever, through anything, for me.
Hearing these beautiful words for herself, Kalpi was in unshed tears of happiness, her eyes were
shining once again with happiness, she slowly moved her both around Raghav's neck with a smile and Raghav was more than happy to see the shine of her eyes, he put his hands on her back moving through her waist. They were dancing more closely than before drown in each other's eyes.
Raghav left the party before Kalpi as he got some business call. Raghav was sitting on couch, he has removed his blazer and tie and was relaxing on couch closing his eyes with head up and with open upper buttons of shirt. When Kalpi entered, he moved his face to look, and smiled at her. Kalpi smiled back, and closed the door. She moved to him and sat on his lap with both her legs on same side, and arms around his neck. She was smiling dreamily and then she looked down and when she again raised her eyes without wasting a second she kissed him. At first it shocked Raghav but he was happy, because it was what he needed after so long silence of Kalpi. While kissing, Raghav pulled up the hair clip from kalpi's bun which made her hair to fall on her shoulders. When they broke kiss kalpi broke her silence.
Kalpi : Sorry! You know I trust you, but when I see other woman with you getting touchy, I feel like.
Raghav : (interrupting her in middle putting his finger on her mouth) Ssshhh!, Just me and you and no one else between us.
Kalpi was amused with his action of putting finger, she kissed his fingers, looked into his eyes. His
eyes were showering nothing but love. Kalpi kissed him again on his lips slowly, and then moved to kiss him on his throat, moving down slowly to kiss his heart, when she reached there, she heard his heartbeats and leaving the kiss she put her hand on his heart. His heart was beating loudly with each beat she was feeling, she was blinking her eyes. Raghav was looking at her in confusion, when her eyes met with his gaze she looked down in embarrassment, and watching this a triumphant smile slowly lit Raghav's face. Raghav stood up from the couch cradling Kalpi in his arms moved to the bed. Raghav made kalpi lie on bed, and switched off the light , to claim his wife once again by body.
Kalpi : (while sitting on bed in dark)Raghav please switch on the light, I don't feel comfortable.
Raghav : (with a naughty grin while switching on the light) Uncomfortable ha, Why don't you say it
straight that you are interested in watching me bare body. Here I fulfill your wish see.
And Raghav removed his shirt and was about to open his pant hook, Kalpi thrown a pillow to him. Raghav caught that pillow and thrown it on one of his side, made himself fall near kalpi , who was picking up one more pillow to throw. Raghav held her both hands and twisted them behind her then made her head fall on pillow and kissed her on her lips. And it was enough for kalpi to forget the pillow and get lost in Raghav's arms. Raghav was busy in kissing her while she moved her hand on his shoulder and pushed him on side such that they rolled on bed and kalpi was now over Raghav, the kiss was broken now. Kalpi smiled at Raghav and he smiled back. Raghav moved his one hand to fix her hair coming on her face, behind her ear and moved his other hand to her back to pull the chain of her dress down. Then slowly he moved his hands under her dress on her bare back. He pulled her into him with her back and made himself roll down once again, and he was again on top of kalpi. Both of them were enjoying this play of rolling over each other, and at the same time enjoying the floral fragrance of each other. They were behaving like they get caught in a mesmerizing spell. And they lived it, once again the moment of pleasure.
The rest three days in LA were as beautiful as beautiful as their second night in LA. They visited many beautiful places there to imprint their Honeymoon in their beautiful memories.
