Next day Morning
Sunday was always a lazy day for Kalpi who prefers getting up late but today was something different...She was not able to sleep whole night coz of Gauri... She was not able to decide whether what Gauri did was correct or not... Her heart was saying that Gauri has the right to live her own life but her mind was refusing to acknowledge that cheating was the only way Gauri had. Whole night she was comparing her life with that of harsh and was trying to find the fault in herself and she dint know when she dozed off. But with the first ray of sun she got up once again only to find message from her lawyer who informed her that her lawyer has been changed due to some date issues and she needs to meet the new lawyer t sharp 9.
"Once again I have to tell her everything from the start." She thought in her mind and goes to take bath so that she can reach at the given address by 9.
-------------------- --------------------------- ----------------
The first ray of sun disturbed Rag's sleep too who was lying on the driver seat of his car. He too doesn't know when he dozed off while thinking about Vitthal's words and Ria's illness... His eyes were red coz of the lack of sleep... his head was spinning and he was too tired to wake up... his heavy eyes were not letting him open them properly but the guilt was not letting him sleep again... after gathering some power he gets up and reaches him room only to fall on the bed. He closes his eyes in the pain and the tiredness of night finally let him sleep again... Kalpi who comes out of the washroom looks at him sleeping with his shoes on... For once he thought to help him sleep properly but soon she realizes her folly and calls the servant to take out his shoes and let him sleep peacefully. She leaves the room after giving an angry glare at Raghav...
Though she was not hungry but she took her breakfast as she had already left dinner for Raghav and now she doesn't wanna affect her health for him. Finally before leaving she checks on Ria and Gauri who was sleeping peacefully. A smile appears on her face on thinking that Ria is finally getting better with the medicines.
--------------------------- ------------------------------------------
Raghav gets up and finds himself covered with sheet... he wonders whether Kalpi did it but then maid appears with coffee and his newspaper and informs him that she has kept her wallet in the desk which has fall from his pocket when she was covering him from the sheet... his face falls on hearing it and he opens the newspaper... Slowly turning the page his eyes fixed on a particular image of his award function... He reads the line..
"While hubby was taking award, wife was busy in the garden" He reads further.., "If sources are to believe then we have heard that Mr and Mrs. Singhania has filed divorce and the reason between their separation is unknown yet. But this is what we have found in the award party. At one side when the husband was busy in receiving award, wife was spotted in someone else's company. Is this the reason for divorce? Our reporter asked Mr and Mrs. Singhania about it but they preferred silence while the supermodel Maya who is also Mrs. Singhania's sister told us that everything is well between the couple and they are very much together. Well time will tell whether the separation is rumor or something is truth behind this image. Till then we would like to wish Mr and Mrs. Singhania a very happy life."
He fumes and tries to recognize the man in the picture... "Who is he? Can he be Kalpis frn? But I know all of his frns... Could Kalpi be cheating on me... No Raghav... not again. Stop this mentality of urs. U have already ruined ur life coz of ur doubting nature... Not all lady is Mrs. Gauri Singhania." He scolded himself and started remembering all friends of Kalpi.
---------------------------- ------------------------------
Kalpi reaches the given address of new lawyer... it's kind of someone's home.. She knocks on it and calls out the lawyers name... "Mrs bahwna kapoor." A lady comes out in yellow salwar suit.. She is a fair lady with round face and ordinary looking feature... her chubby cheeks and the smile on her face made her look charming despite having a little bulky figure. Her amiable welcome amazed Kalpana and she was surprised on knowing that the lawyer recognized her.
"Kalpana... make urself comfortable... As it's Sunday today so I thought to meet u at home and not in office. i hope u do not have any issues with it. Actually I think home is the best place to know more about ur client."
"I am perfectly fine Mrs. Kapoor.."
"Bhawna... u can call me Bhawna.. after all we r of almost same age so we can talk like frns."
Kalpi nods her head in yes... there was something different in this lady which she was unable to understand... May be it's her profession which makes her extra friendly thought Kalpi.
Her home was neatly arranged with few shields and show pieces... The atmosphere of the house was giving Kalpi the positive vibes... The genuine smile on the lady's face in one of her photo with her child was telling her successful married life... Kalpi looks around to find her hubby's pictures but there was none... While Kalpi was observing her home, she returned with two cups of coffee...
"I think coffee is the best thing to have while discussing ur life." She said while offering her one cup.
"So I have to tell u everything from the beginning or u already know about the case?" Kalpi said while taking the cup from her hand and hiding her pain.
"Not exactly...u just need to tell me the true reason of divorce which u have hidden from ur previous lawyer. From what I understand from ur file is that the reason which u r depicting for divorce is issues regarding ur understanding and his busy schedule and I know there is something more to it."
"No there is nothing more to it... Raghav is too busy in his own life to give me and my daughter time and hence I want to separate from him so that I can start a fresh life."
"Kalpi.. u must have heard that we shouldn't lie to a teacher, doctor and a lawyer... So please tell me the truth."
"I have already told the truth" Kalpi said bit angrily and stands up. Bhawna throws the paper on the table with her and Prem's pic on the top. Kalpi is stunned to see it... Tears were forming in her eyes and she ponders what Raghav will think on seeing it... She sits lifelessly on the sofa on reading the content.
"Is this the reason for divorce?" Bhawna asked her softly.
"No.. she yelled. This is not truth. But once again he will doubt me..." She said while crying.
"Once again?? So it happened before also??" Bhawna asked.
Kalpi nods her head in yes... She starts narrating her the incident
"It was Ria's 10th birthday...I have arranged a small party with close relatives and friends... Everyone has arrived and waiting for Ragahv... Maya, my sister called to know where he is but he dint receive. His secretary told us that his meeting is going to be a long one so Maya texted him to come for the party. Gauri, my mom in law told us to continue the party without him... The cake was being cut... Though Ria was disappointed coz of her father's presence but we planned to cheer her up by playing some games and dancing. Pakhi and Gauri helped kids in playing games and all adults were taken to dance floor for dancing... My college mates were there too with their respective spouses except Sammy who is still a bachelor... As both of us were alone Gauri insisted us to dance with each other... We started dancing lightly... The atmosphere turned romantic due to change fo song and we felt bit uncomfortable when Sammy started talking to me so that I can feel comfortable... soon we were engrossed in his childish talks and I had to come bit closer to him to hear him properly coz of the loud sound of music... Due to our funny talks and dim light, I dint notice Raghav who has already arrived there and watching our proximity... After that I dint knew what happened to Raghav... He storms out from there in anger and Maya informed me about this bit later. I went after him and Maya took the responsibility to finish the party on happy note."
Flashback
"Raghav... what happened to u?? Why u came here without greeting anyone... u dint even met Ria" Kalpi asked Raghav who was looking out of the window and consuming alcohol.
"Raghav... I am talking to u. Look at my side... N u r drinking today... Don't u know that today is Ria's special day... u dint come on time and now u... Chhiii!!" Kalpi said in a disgusting tone which flared Raghav's anger... he turned around and holds her arm angrily. She cries in pain...
"Leave me Raghav.. it's hurting me."
"Hurting u?? So all u care about is ur pain?? What about my pain?? What were u doing with that Sammy?" He asked her in anger and pinned her to the wall.
"What the hell r u saying Ragahv... I was just dancing with him.." Kalpi said while trying to get out of his grip but he tightens it...
"Ohh Really!! U were enjoying the dance with him and the way u were smiling with him... Ohh he is so sweet na... Unlike Raghav who is a corrupt businessman... U never come with me to my parties and nor u talk to me so sweetly but with him u were enjoying..."
"Stop it Raghav... u are out of ur senses... I do not come in ur parties coz I do not like them... "
"Yes right... u do not like anything about me now... but he... he is just awesome!! He makes u happy!! So what special pleasure he is giving to make u so happy. Ohh he is younger to me so maybe he is more strong in bed..."
"Enough Raghav... u r accusing me without any reason... U have a disgusting mentality."
"No... u all women are disgusting... u r just like my mother who wants to find pleasure in other's arms... u all woman are same... One man can't satisfy u."
"Enough Ragahv... U r crossing ur limit... Behave urself before I slap u."
"U will slap me?? U disgusting women... U will slap me??" Ragahv raised his hand in anger... Kalpi is terrified to see this side of Raghav... She was planning to start a new life with Raghav and here Ragahv was accusing her. She pushes Ragahv angrily when they hear a crying voice which stops them..
"Dad... do not hit mom." Cried Ria and ran towards her mother to hug her... Raghav leaves the room angrily and Maya runs after him. She tells Kalpi to look after Ria and she will handle Raghav,
Kalpi calms down Ria and takes her to her room. She tells Ria to not get worried about her parents as they were arguing just like the way she argues with her friends... Ria nods her head in affirmative but inside she was too horrified by the scene she saw. Kalpi gives her medicines and pats her head... Ria sleeps coz of the heavy dose but her mind was still abuzz with Kalpi and Raghav's fight. Kalpi lies beside her and she had the doubt that Ria might get up in the mid of night.
After 2-3 hours she felt something wet on the bed and realizes Ria has wetted the bed again... She tries to wake her up to change her clothes but realizes she was having high fever... hurriedly she changes her dress and calls doctor. But before doctor can come she notices some changes in Ria's body and rushes to the hospital with driver... On the way she tries calling Raghav but he dint receive... she was too shock to call Maya at that time so she keeps calling Raghav.
Finally she reaches hospital and admits Ria in it... Doctor checks her and takes her for MRI. Kalpi was sitting outside praying to god. ... She lost the count of time and ...All she was doing was calling Raghav and praying to god. Finally doctor comes out and hands her a report... She looks at it and saw some diagrams with scattered intersecting line... She is unable to understand anything and looks at doctor with hope...
"This line which u r seeing intersecting with each other should be parallel... While we were doing her MRI, She got a small attack and we got to know that whenever she wetted her bed, she suffered from fits for either a second or two." Kalpi dropped the report from her hand and in a feeble voice asked... "u mean to say Epilepsy??"
"Yes... but it's the start and can be cured by medicines but it will take 2 to 3 years. So u don't worry. U just have to make sure that she takes medicine on time."
Kalpi nods her head and asks doctor whether she can take Ria home... Doctor informs her that she can take Ria home if she wants too but it's better to let her stay there till morning as she is sleeping peacefully. Kalpi nods her head and looks at her daughter who has been shifted to one of the room. That was the longest night for Kalpi... She keeps calling Raghav thinking that Ria might feel happy on seeing her father by her side but Raghav was lost in his own world... She finally remembers Maya but to her surprise, Maya dint receive... She wonders whether Raghav is fine or not... She looks at herself who was still in the party dress without her footwear... in hurry she forgot to wear footwear even. Now she was worried about Raghav as well hence without paying much attention to herself she ran towards his office which was at walking distance from the hospital but there...
Flashback ends
Kalpi stops herself from saying further... She was crying bitterly now on remembering the worst night of her life. Bhawna gives her the glass of water and do not orce her to continue. Kalpi looks at her and controls herself.
"I do not want my child to suffer more... I have realized that Raghav and mine relationship can't be same so I just want to move out of it. It's better for Ria to accept the truth now and move on in her life."
"But don't u think it will be better for Ria if u start working on ur relationship. " Came a male voice.
Kalpi is stunned to hear and it looks at the familiar face which she saw at the award function...
"PK.. what are u doing here??" asked Kalpi with mixed emotions of surprise and anger. She was angry on herself to let Prem know her reality.
"Mrs. Bhawna Prem Kapoor.." Prem introduced her wife to Kalpi... "I wanted her to tackle ur case and that's why we contacted ur lawyer. I know I had no right to do so but I want someone to be around u in ur tough time." Prem sounded apologetic.
"Yes Prem.. u do not have any right to take decision on my behalf... But as u r the only one closer to me right now, so m forgiving u for this mistake." Said Kalpi bit angrily... Prem was shocked to hear his name instead of PK.
Bhawna holds her ears lovingly and assures Kalpi that she is the honest lawyer and she is just here to help her. For her, she is like any other client and she won't interfere in her life. Kalpi nods in yes when she heard Maya asking softly.. "What happened that day?? Did u met Raghav??"
"Yes.. Raghav was lying in his office... he was totally drunk and hence I dint said a word to him. He doesn't know about Ria's illness and I do not want u to mention it in the court." Kalpi said firmly.
Bhawna agrees to it but requests Kalpi to not hide anything from her but Kalpi stays mum saying I want divorce on the basis of what has written on that file... I do not want to discuss anything further. Bhawna gives her a smile and assures her that she will do whatever her client will say. Kalpi laughs a bit and leaves the place hurriedly.
"So.. she dint reveal the complete truth yet... I just want her to share her sadness and still she is hiding it." Prem said it furiously. "Doesn't she trust me??"
"Prem.. u r just a friend and he is her husband... She won't tell the dark truth to u." Said Maya, while , coming out of the room.
"Shut up Maya... I am just helping u co u said me it's fo Kalpi... else I will never forgive u for what u have done."
