Chapter-4
Raghav - he frooze to still , numb , flabbergasted , shocked !! He couldn't figure out whether is it all a mere worst dream or is it some kind of practical joke played on him by sammy !! His emotion-mix stare continues to kalpi..as he was sure never ever kalpi'd do this to him..she loves him to death, she can't do this never ever...not after the vermilion I filled her in the temple...no this is just yet my bloody hallucination...damn I'm over stressed , guess I need to rest and calm down myself around...on that note he tries to make a move !!! But the buzz of sammy's mobile drags his attention to surroundings !!!!!!!
Sammy - excuse me kalpana...gotto get this call answered it's important on that note he shows himself out...leaving behind a hurt Raghav and equally hurt kalpana.
Kalpi - she gives a assuring nod to sammy and averts her gaze towards Raghav...she prepared herself for this , yet this seemed to be toughest ever she expected...god this is so damn tough and heart wrenching ...I am so so sorry Raghav please bare me I promise this would be the first and last hurt ever I ought to give you in my lifetime...pardon me Raghav...!! With that self talk she calms herself down and masks her hurt to that of expressionless so that Raghav doesn't read her...she is very well aware of raghav's state...she decides to give him his own time to fathom what had transpired between them...she just stood gazing raghav silently praying god to give both of them enough strength .!!! Deep down shez worried of what consequences would sammy sir has to face...for the drastic step of hers ...God please don't make things worst than imagined !!!!!!
Raghav - he says kaloi for real , his face fades out as the realisation hits him hard...all this was and is true indeed...he just slumps down on the chair as if his heart was ripped hard and just couldn't balance himself...he observes kalpana from tip to toe he hadn't seen any sign of ritual ornaments ,
adorning her for a second he again thinks this isn't true but he wanted to confirm from spite knowing that she can never do this to him..with all the courage he mouths stop this kalpi...right now it isn't funny anymore...moreover I very well know you do this to me , to us ...saying that he gives an expectant look ...!!!
Kalpi - kalpi calmly places a envelope on the desk...!! Her face expressionless and expecting the worst !!!
Raghav - now what the hell is this peice of paper is all about...can't you just speak to me kalpi...he glares at her !!
Kalpi - I urge you to go through it raghav !! She puts her word with a downward glance !!
Raghav - he gets to the envelope in haste and that's it the contents of the paper make him weak , helpless and what not...you can't do this kalpi was all he could word !!
Kalpi - unfortunately I had done it raghav.. !!!
Raghav - what in the world are you saying...kalpi. ..cut the crap...and for godsake stop fooling me around and please unveil the bloody fake mask you had put on...stop it please ...I can't take it anymore !!
Kalpi - wake up Raghav...it's all for real and by the way why'd I fool you around that too at this front !!! It's all bloody real and I choose to marry your very own best friend and we did...get that straight...!! Saying it all in one go she faces her back to him as she started feeling weak already !!!!!!
Raghav - what ...!!!!????? And what made you guys to do so...I demand an explaination with all rights acclaimed kalpi...you better explain it and better be it worthy enough he said it all ferociously !! Still expecting all this to be unreal...he shouts her to spill the beans now ...right now ...!!!
Kalpi - she takes a long breath...still facing her bsck to him..Raghav I had my own reasons and I don't consider my reasons to be disclosed for you !!
Raghav - now he is pissed off...with rage in his tone...did just say that to me...come again !!!!
Kalpi - it's dragging...it should end now...on that note she faces with a strengthy masked will and words...I said it all Raghav...the truth is infront of you...whether you accept or deny it's upto you...and yeah let me make it clear it's me who went on a marriage proposal to sammy sir...he was in denial at initial but itz me who made him in terms with me and their family being already acquainted to me had no issues and so we kept the affair simple and private...I don't expect you to congratulate us least I expect from you is let all this move in a amicable way and do not judge or misbehave with your friend as he is your friend and will be till death...and I even dint word my reasons to sammy sir as well... so you better don't embarrass him with why and how...!!! Hez just being good to me and I owe him for that ...saying so she makes her move only to be caught hold of Raghav. !!!
Raghav - have you losted...!!! And what the hell are you thinking you will say so and I'd let you go ...you can't and I never will...and what's all sammy being good...kalpi I trust you to death...and you can't break it ...you better get that kalpi !!!
Kalpi - loosens his grip forcefully...I did raghav and I don't want any scene infront of the staff here saying that she rushes out from ther !!
Raghav - it's not true kalpi...and I know you better than anyone else if not now later for sure...I will get to the truth...!!
