9th shot
The next day
After the exam, Kalpana decided to meet Ragahv. She took a taxi and directly went to his office. Ragahv was busy in his meeting that's why Kalpana was waiting in his cabin. After waiting of 30 minutes, finally Kalpana saw him coming toward his cabin. Before Kalpana could call him, someone else already called him, "Hey Ragahv." Hearing the person Ragahv looked behind. A smile appeared on his face.
Ragahv: Hey Katelyn, what a pleasant surprise!
Kalpana looked at Katelyn from top to bottom. She was white American. Gorgeous, beautiful, attractive figure. Without any doubt she had that capability to pull any guy toward her. Kalpana's eyes then fell on her dress. It was a one piece, short dress. Her body was exposed through this dress. Kalpana's eyes widened seeing Katelyn and Raghav hugging each other.
Ragahv: Gald to see you.
Katelyn: Glad to see you too.
Breaking the hug, Ragahv said,
Ragahv: All of a sudden you are here in New York? You went to Canada for a month right?
Katelyn: Only for you. Once I heard about your accident from Rocky, I couldn't resist myself.
Hugging him back, she said,
Katelyn: Are you okay?
Breaking the hug, he cupped her face and said,
Ragahv: Don't worry. I am fine.
Katelyn: Ragahv, I am very upset with you. Since I been away from you, you didn't even give me a call. You met with an accident and I had to hear it from someone else. How could you forget me so easily?
Saying so she slapped his chest.
Ragahv: Ok I am sorry. Now let's go to the cabin. For how long you will make me stand here.
Katelyn: Let's go.
Once turned to go to his cabin, Ragahv's eyes fell on Kalpana who was watching them standing at his cabin door. Seeing Kalpana he said surprised,
Ragahv: Kalpana, you? Here all of a sudden?
Kalpana was about to say something but Katelyn interrupted her saying,
Katlyn: Ragahv, who is she?
Placing his arm around Kalpana, Ragahv said with a smile,
Ragahv: Meet my beautiful wife. Kalpana.
Katelyn smiled and said,
Katelyn: Hello! Nice to meet you
Ragahv: And Kalpana, this is Katelyn, my friend. We used to go to the same college. She is the one who helped me to choose that necklace for you. Do you remember?
Kalpana smiled and nodded in yes.
Kalpana: Nice to meet you too.
Katelyn: So she is the reason of forgetting me?
Ragahv smiled and said,
Ragahv: Actually I was busy with her that's why didn't get a chance to contact you.
Three of them entered into the cabin. Kalpana and Katelyn fixed themselves on the sofa while Ragahv on his chair.
Ragahv: You girls give me five minutes. I need to make an important call then we all will do lunch together.
In the Restaurant
Kalpana was eating quietly while Ragahv and Katelyn were busy talking to each other.
Kalpana: You guys are not eating
Katelyn: You know what Kalpana, when I and Raghav are together we get lost into each other that we forget other stuffs.
Seeing him eating spicy food, Katelyn said holding his hand,
Katelyn: Ragahv, when did you start eating spicy food? So far I know you don't like this type of food.
Hearing her Kalpana was surprised. Katelyn knew his likes and dislikes too, Kalpana thought.
Ragahv: Now I am not bachelor anymore. I need to change my likes and dislikes and support my life partner's needs.
Kalpana noticed that in every single point, Ragahv and Katelyn laughed, teased each other, touched each other. Though they were friends, but Kalpana didn't like this much closeness in between them.
At home
Kalpana went to Ragahv's room and saw he was working on his lap top. Seeing Kalpana, Ragahv said with a smile,
Ragahv: Kalpana, come. Sit here.
Kalpana sat beside him on the couch.
Kalpana: Are you busy?
Ragahv: Just half an hour work. Then I will be free. Do you want to say anything Kalpana?
Kalpana: Seems like you and Katelyn are very close friend.
Raghav: Yes we are. She was the only friend I had when I came here. She helped me a lot.
Kalpana: Where is her family?
Ragahv: They live in Florida.
Kalpana: Where does she live?
Ragahv: She still lives in the same house where four of our friends used to live. She is the owner of that house.
Kalpana: She used to live with you in the same house?
Ragahv: Yes
Kalpana: How come boy and girl live in the same house?
Ragahv: People live here like this.
I am not talking about other people. I am talking about you Ragahv. How could you be like other people? Kalpana thought. She was really hurt. Her trance broke when Ragahv's phone buzzed.
Raghav: Hey Katelyn, what's up?
Katelyn: Sorry to bother you at this time Ragahv. Actually I am stuck somewhere. The engine of my car is not starting. I don't see any taxi around. Could you come and drop me off home?
Ragahv looked at the wall clock. It was 11 PM.
Ragahv: Ok. I will be there in 30 minutes.
Saying so Ragahv cut the call and told Kalpana that he will be back soon and left from there.
Kalpana was pacing back and forth in the living area. She kept looking at the wall clock. It's been 3 hours but still Ragahv didn't come. Why is he taking too long? Was she really in trouble or she just acted being trouble so that she could spend time with Ragahv? Kalpana thought. Her trance broke, hearing the sound coming from the door. Ragahv entered into the house. Seeing Kalpana still up,
Ragahv: Kalpana, you are still up? You didn't go to sleep?
How a wife can sleep peacefully when her husband is outside with another woman till late night? Kalpana said in her mind.
Kalpana: Why did you take too long?
Ragahv: Don't tell me. This Katelyn and her talks never end so easily. When I went to drop her off, she insisted me to have coffee and I couldn't say no to her. Then start...
Kalpana cut his sentence saying,
Kalpana: Good night.
Kalpana was about to leave but Ragahv stopped her holding her hand.
Ragahv: Seems like you forgot something.
Kalpana was not in a mood to talk to him now.
He lifted her in his arms and walked toward his bedroom.
Kalpana: Ragahv, put me down. I need to go to my room.
Ragahv put her down.
Raghav: First kiss then go to your room.
You must have gotten lot of them from that Katelyn, she said in her mind upset.
Kalpana: I am sleepy Ragahv. Please don't bother me.
Saying so she left from there leaving Ragahv in a deep thought. Ragahv was surprised seeing her sudden behavior. Is she hurt for some reason? He thought.
The next morning
Once Kalpana opened her eyes, her eyes fell on Raghav, who was sitting on a couch and waiting for her to wake up.
Ragahv: Good Morning.
Ragahv said with a smile.
Ragahv: Come let's have coffee together.
Kalpana smiled and got off from the bed. She fixed herself beside him on the couch. Ragahv poured coffee into two cups. Handing one cup over to Kalpana,
Ragahv: For you
Kalpana: Thank you.
They drank coffee quietly. After finishing her coffee, Kalpana stood up and was about to leave when,
Ragahv: Kalpana, where are you going?
Kalpana: Kitchen, to make breakfast.
Ragahv stood up. Placing his hands on her shoulder,
Ragahv: You don't have to. I ordered breakfast from outside.
He cupped her face and said looking straight into her eyes,
Ragahv: You were upset because I was outside till late?
Kalpana didn't say anything but just lowered her eyes.
He pulled her in his arms and said while caressing her hair,
Ragahv: I am sorry. I will never do it again.
Kalpana hugged him back and rested her head on his chest. They were in each other's arms for a while.
Ragahv: Kalpana
Kalpana: hm
Ragahv: Let's go downstairs. We need to eat breakfast.
Ragna came down. Ragahv made Kalpana sit on a chair and he sat beside her. While eating Kalpana felt her right hand interlocked by Ragahv's hand.
Kalpana: Ragahv, leave my hand. How I will eat with my left hand?
Ragahv: Don't worry. Main hoon na.
Saying so he started feeding Kalpana.
Kalpana: I am so full now.
Ragahv: You have to eat more Kalpana. Look at you. You look so weak.
Kalpana: If I gain more weight then you will not like me anymore.
Ragahv: I like you and will always like you, doesn't matter how much weight you gain or lose.
Ragna were staring into each other's eyes. Their trance broke when Ragahv's phone buzzed.
Ragahv: Hello
Shatish: Ragahv, where are you? We have a meeting in 30 minutes.
Ragahv: Can you attend the meeting. I am coming in late today.
Shatish: Ok
Ragahv cut the call
Kalpana: Raghav, why do you want to be late for office?
Ragahv: I want to spend some time with you.
Kalpana: When you will come home in the evening, we will spend time. Now go to office.
Ragahv: Are you sure?
Kalpana smiled and nodded.
Ragahv: It means you are not upset anymore.
Kalpana shook her head in no.
Ragahv: Ok then where is my kiss?
Kalpana smiled and gave him a small peak on his lips.
Ragahv: That's it?
Kalpana: Now go to office. You will get the longest one at night.
Ragahv: Ok, thank you.
After Ragahv left, Kalpana tried to finish her work as soon as possible so that she would be free in the evening when Ragahv comes back.
In the evening
After freshening up, Ragahv went to backyard where kalpana was waiting for him with coffee and snacks. Ragahv sat beside Kalpana on the swing. While taking a sip from his cup,
Ragahv: How was your day Kalpana?
Kalpana: it was...
She was distracted when his phone buzzed.
Ragahv: hey Katelyn
Katelyn: Hey Ragahv. I would like to invite you and Kalpana for the dinner.
Ragahv: Dinner? Give me 5 minutes. I will let you know later.
Katelyn: Thanks
Ragahv cut the call
Ragahv: Kalpana, katelyn invited us for the dinner.
Kalpana: I am not going anywhere.
Ragahv: But she invited specially for you.
Kalpana: But I don't feel like to go and you are also not going.
Saying so Kalpana interlocked her hand with his and rested her head on his shoulder. You must be hurt Ragahv but I can't allow anyone taking my place. I wish I could tell you that I don't like her around you, Kalpana said in her mind.
Ragahv: Ok, if you don't feel like to go, we will not go. I will tell her no.
Caressing her hair,
Ragahv: How was your day Kalpana?
Kalpana: I missed you a lot
Hearing her, Ragahv was happy realizing that, this was the first time Kalpana expressed her feelings for him that he always wanted.
Ragahv: Kalpana
Kalpana: Hm
Ragahv: Then why didn't you call me?
Kalpana: I thought you might be busy that's why
Ragahv: For you, I am always free. Call me whenever you want.
Kalpana: Ragahv
Ragahv: Hm
Kalpana: Are you hurt because I told you to cancel the invitation?
Ragahv: No. For me there is nothing important than you. I will not do anything that you don't like.
Hearing him, kalpana lifted her head and looked into his eyes with love.
She leaned and kissed his right cheek and then left cheek. When she was about to kiss his forehead, Ragahv pulled her and made her sit on his lap. Sliding her hands around his neck, she brought his face toward her chest. Ragahv placed soft kisses on her shoulder and neck while Kalpana was caressing his hair. Ragna were so lost in each other until Katlyn called him again. Ragna smiled looking at each other.
Ragahv: Hey Katelyn
Katelyn: Ragahv, I was waiting for your call.
Ragahv: Sorry, I got busy.
Ragahv looked at Kalpana and bit his lower lip. Kalpana smiled and then lowered her eyes shyly.
Katelyn: Ragahv, are you there?
Ragahv didn't reply. He was just staring at Kalpana.
Katelyn: Ragahv, are you there?
Ragahv: Yah.
Kate: So what is your...
Ragahv: Katelyn, actually, we won't be able to make...
Kalpana snatched the phone from him and said,
Kalpana: Katelyn this is Kalpana, we are coming tomorrow.
Katelyn: Ok, thank you.
Kalpana cut the call.
Ragahv: But Kalpana, you said you don't want to go
Kalpana: I am ok now.
Ragahv: Are you sure?
Kalpana nodded. Placing a soft kiss on his forehead,
Kalpana: Come let's do dinner.
Saying so she left from there. Ragahv also came followed her behind.
After dinner Ragna spent some time in Ragahv's room. Ragahv felt bad when Kalpana leaves him after spending some time with him. He gathered some courage and said,
Ragahv: Kalpana, is it ok with you if you stay with me in my room tonight?
Kalpana looked at him without any expression. Ragahv tried to understand if she was agree with it or not.
Ragahv: If you don't want to then it is fine. I can understand.
Ragahv noticed her expression changed. She was shying.
Ragahv leaned and whispered into her ear, "Can I take it as yes?" Turning off the light, Kalpana whispered, "Good night." Then she laid on the bed. Ragahv laid beside her. Ragna laid straight side by side making little distance in between them. They were looking at the ceiling. After few seconds Kalpana felt her hand interlocking with Ragahvs. Kalpana looked at Ragahv whose eyes were already stuck on her. She could see him with the light of moon coming through the window. Ragahv came closer to her filling the gap. Ragahv placed his hand on her stomach. After few seconds she felt his foot slowly rubbing hers. Her heart started beating fast as his hand travelled up from her stomach to her shoulder. He bent down and then licked her beautiful long neck, kissed her there lovingly. Then he placed his lips on her. Sliding her hands around his neck she brought him more toward her as he deepened the kiss. After few seconds Kalpana started responding to his kiss. After sharing a long passionate kiss, Ragahv wrapped his arms around her as she rested her head on his chest. Placing a soft kiss on her forehead Ragahv whispered, "Good night." Ragna fell asleep in each other's arms peacefully.
The next day before Ragahv left for the office, he selected a saree for Kalpana for tonight. He reminded Kalpana to get ready by sharp 7 pm.
In the evening Kalpana wore the saree that Ragahv selected and put little make up.

Once Ragahv entered into the house, he directly went to Kalpana's room to check if she was ready. Kalpana was wearing the earring standing in front of the mirror. All of a sudden she felt a pair of arms wrapped her waist. She looked at the mirror and a smile appeared on her face seeing Ragahv. Placing a soft kiss on her neck, Ragahv said, "You are looking so gorgeous." Kalpana smiled and said, "Thank you."
Kalpana: Ragahv, aren't we getting late?
Ragahv: I don't feel like to go.
Hearing him she turned to face him. He cupped her face and said,
Ragahv: let's cancel the dinner
Placing her hands on her waist,
Kalpana: What are you saying?
He pulled her closer by her waist and whispered, "After seeing you I don't have any mood to go anywhere." Placing her both hands on his shoulder, she said, "Achcha, then what you will say to Katelyn?" Without wasting a second he replied, "I will tell her that I would like to spend some time with my sexy wife." Hearing him Kalpana's eyes widened.
Kalpana: Ragahv, you became so naughty.
Ragahv: Being naughty with Biwi is not a great sin.
Kalpana: Let's go, we are seriously getting late.
Ragahv: Give me a kiss first.
Kalpana: Ragahv? Leave me
Ragahv: First kiss then go.
Kalpana: Not now
Ragahv: Then when?
Kalpana: At night
Ragahv: Are you sleeping with me tonight?
Kalpana: Ragahv, day by day you have become so greedy.
Ragahv: As I said, being greedy with Biwi is not a great sin.
Kalpana leaned and gave him a quick pick on his lips and said,
Kalpana: Now leave me. We are getting late.
Ragahv: I owe you a kiss. Don't forget that
Saying so he loosened his grip.
Once ragna entered into Katelyn's house, she gave them a warm welcome. She invited few of their friends too. Katelyn introduced Kalpana to their other friends. While talking to his friends, Ragahv excused himself and went outside to make an important phone call to one of his office staffs.
Kate: Let's have diner first then we will talk.
Saying so she pulled a chair for Kalpana and she sat next to her. She started serving food for everyone. Seeing Ragahv coming toward them, Kate said showing an empty seat next to her,
Kate: Ragahv, come sit here as I need to talk to you while eating.
Avoiding her, Ragahv came to Kalpana and sat next to her. Kalpana felt good. He took care of Kalpana while she was eating.
After dinner Katelyn gifted Kalpana a gorgeous one piece long designer dress. Kalpana thanked her for the dress.
While everyone was busy talking to each other, Kalpana looked around; she noticed that it was a beautiful one family house with four bedrooms and a big living room. There was a swimming pool in the backyard.
Kalpana: Nice decoration.
Katelyn: Thank you. Actually all credit goes to Ragahv. He helped me decorating the house beautifully.
Saying so she held Ragahv's hand and almost dragged him toward her bedroom saying,
Kate: Ragahv, come with me. Let me show you how I decorated my bedroom.
Kalpana's eyes were stuck on Kate's grip on Ragahv until they disappeared. It's been ten minutes; neither Ragahv nor Kate came out of the room. Kalpana decided to check. Once she walked toward the room, she saw them coming out laughing. She noticed Kate's grip was still on Ragahv which made Kalpana upset. Releasing his hand from Kate's grip, Ragahv held Kalpana's hand and said,
Ragahv: Kalpana, there is a beautiful swimming pool. Let me show you.
Raghav took Kalpana to the poolside. He made Kalpana sit on a chair and he sat next to her. Ragahv took her one hand in him and placing a soft kiss on it, he said,
Ragahv: Kalpana, you want to go home or you are fine?
Before Kalpana could say anything, Kate came and said,
Kate: No way. You can't go now.
Saying so she sat next to Ragahv. Their other friends also joined them.
Kate: You know what Kalpana, we used to do lot of fun when Ragahv was with us. He been with us for three years. It seemed like we lived our lives in these three years. I missed those days a lot.
David: Kate, you are right. I really missed those days. Specially our swimming race.
Ragahv: Kate, you are a good swimmer, I must say. None of us could stop you wining.
Kate: I am also missing our race Ragahv. Do you remember when we would get into the water we would forget everything?
Raghav: Yes. One time we stayed until midnight and we didn't realize when time passed.
Hearing this everyone started laughing but there were only one person remained quiet.
Kate: Can we have one race now?
Ragahv: Now?
Kate: yes
Ragahv: No way. It is 11 now. We have to go home. Some other time.
Extanding her hand toward Ragahv, kate said,
Kate: Promise?
Placing his hand Raghav said with smile,
Ragahv: Promise.
On the way while going back to their house in the car, Ragahv noticed that Kalpana was sitting quietly.
Ragahv: Kalpana, why are you so quiet?
Kalpana: I am fine
Ragahv: Did you like the party?
Kalpana: You liked the party and that is good enough for me.
Ragahv: Why, you didn't?
Kalpana: Ragahv, I have headache. I am not feeling like to talk now.
Raghav: Headache?
He put her car seat back and told her to close her eyes. Kalpana closed her eyes as he said.
Once they reached home, Ragahv noticed that Kalpana fell asleep. He lifted her in his arms and directly went to her room. Placing her on the bed, he turned off the light and then he came out of the room. Once Ragahv closed the door, Kalpana opened her eyes. Neither she had headache nor she was sleeping. She was just pretending as she didn't want to talk to Ragahv. Ragahv and Katelyn's friendship and their closeness were bothering her badly. She couldn't take it easily. She spent the whole night awake.
The next morning, Ragahv came to Kalpana's room to check if she was ok. Seeing her sleeping peacefully he didn't wake her up and left for the office. When Kalpana woke up it was 10 AM. After freshening up, she went to the kitchen and saw Ragahv already made breakfast for her and placed it on the table. She didn't feel like to eat breakfast. Then she went to the poolside. She couldn't stay there that long as Ragahv and Katelyn's conversations were ringing into her ears. Once she entered into the house, her phone buzzed. She didn't pick up the phone on purposely as it was Ragahv's phone.
After one hour Ragahv called her again. This time Kalpana picked up the phone.
Ragahv: I called you before. Why didn't you pick up the phone?
Kalpana: I was sleeping
Ragahv: How is your headache now?
Kalpana: Good
Ragahv: Did you have your breakfast?
Kalpana: Hm
Ragahv: Ok Kalpana, I am going to attend a meeting now. I will see you in the evening.
Kalpana was feeling weak as she skipped her lunch too. She went to her room and laid on her bed. In the evening Ragahv came, and started searching for Kalpana. When she was not around he directly went to Kalpana's room. He saw her sleeping on her bed. He sat on her bed and called her caressing her hair, "Kalpana." After calling her three times, she opened her eyes. Ragahv asked her concerned,
Ragahv: Are you ok?
Kalpana: Because of the headache I couldn't sleep last night that's why I fell asleep.
Ragahv: Ok you sleep. In the meantime let me take shower. We will do dinner together.
Saying so Raghav left from there. He went to his bathroom. Seeing the hot water was not working, he decided to get into the pool.
Kalpana woke up and then went to Ragahv's room to tell him that hot water was not working. But Ragahv was not there. Hearing the splashing sound coming from outside, she went to the balcony. She saw him swimming in the pool. After a while, Kate entered into the gate. Seeing him swimming, Kate couldn't resist herself to get into the water. She went back to her car. After changing her dress, she came back wearing a swimming suit. Ragahv didn't notice her. Hearing Kate, "Hey Ragahv, can I swim with you?" Ragahv looked at her. Before he could say anything, Kate jumped into the water. Kalpana was watching them swimming and laughing at the same time from the balcony.
After half an hour they came out from the pool. They went directly to Ragahv's room.
Ragahv: Kate, you change your dress then I will go
Saying so Ragahv was about to leave the room, he heard her saying,
Kate: Ragahv, please come here. Something got into my eyes.
He held her head with his one hand and used his other hand to get that dirt out from her eyes. Kalpana didn't know that they were in Ragahv's room. Once Kalpana entered into the room, her eyes fell on Raghav and Kate. She stood frozen. Her eyes filled with water. Her heart broke into million pieces. Before Ragahv and Katelyn could notice her, Kalpana came back to the balcony. She dropped herself on the floor. She felt like to cry her heart.
After changing her dress Kate left as she got an important phone call. Ragahv went to Kalpana's room several times. But seeing the door closed he thought she was sleeping and didn't want to bother her. He then went to the living room and tried to do some work in his lap top. Ragahv was so lost in his work that he didn't realize when rain started. While he was working Kate called him and told him that by mistake she left her bag near the poolside.
Kate: It is raining. So can you please...
Ragahv: Is it raining?
Kate: Yes. It's been raining since two hours.
Ragahv: Ok, let me bring the bag inside.
Ragahv went outside and grabbed her bag. Then he realized that his and Kalpana's room's windows are open. He rushed into Kalpana's room and saw her bed was empty. He closed the window and came out of the room. "Where is Kalpana?" he mumbled to himself. He just came from downstair but kalpana was not there, he thought. Then he went to his room. Once he entered into his room his eyes fell on the sliding door which was little open. He walked toward the door. He was about to close the door, his eyes fell on something in the balcony. Once he walked into the balcony, "Kalpana?" the only word came out from his mouth shocked. Kalpana was totally drenched, sitting on the floor hugging herself. Her whole body was shivering due to the cold. She was blabbering with her closed eyes. For a moment his heart skipped seeing her in this state. Without wasting a second he lifted her in his arms and placed her on his bed. He changed her wet dress under the blanket. Then he dried her hair with the towel. He touched her forehead and realized she had fever. Without wasting a second he brought a bowl of water and a piece of cloth. He put the piece of wet cloth on her forehead to bring the temperature down. He sat beside her on the bed, and kept messaging her palm and feet. While messaging, he heard her blabbering, "Rag-a-hv ho-w cou-ld yo-u do this to m-e?" He tried very hard to understand but he couldn't. Something was killing him thinking why Kalpana was drenching in the rain. All of a sudden something clicked in his mind. "She did it before when she was upset on me few years back," he mumbled to himself, "Is she upset on me for some reason?" He decided to talk to Kalpana in the morning. It was 3:00 AM. Slowly her temperature came down. Finally Ragahv got relieved. Seeing her sleeping peacefully, Ragahv leaned back and rested his head on the headboard and closed his eyes to take a little nap.
As sun rays hit her eyes, Kalpana opened her eyes slowly. She felt something on her forehead. She took it out and saw a piece of wet cloth and then her eyes fell on Ragahv who was sleeping beside her resting his head on the dashboard. When she tried to get off from the bed, she noticed that her dress was changed. Then she realized that Ragahv brought her here and changed her dress. She went to her room and laid down on her bed.
Once Ragahv opened his eyes, he saw kalpana was not there. Then he went to her room and saw her sleeping peacefully. He decided to go to work late today. He went to the kitchen and made soup for Kalpana. After three hours Kalpana woke up. After freshening up she came out of the bathroom. Few seconds later, Ragahv entered into the room with her soup.
Ragahv: Kalpana, come. Have some soup. You need to take medicine.
Kalpana: I am fine Ragahv. I don't need to take any medicine.
Ragahv noticed some changing behavior in her. She was talking to him without looking at him. It didn't take time to understand that she was ignoring him. Ragahv turned her to face him.
Ragahv: Please tell me what is bothering you.
Kalpana: Ragahv, nothing is bothering me.
Ragahv: Then why were you drenching in the rain?
Kalpana: I skipped meals that's why I felt weak and I didn't know when I lost my conscious.
Raghav was not convinced with her answer. He decided to talk to her some other time.
Ragahv: Please at least have some soup. I made it for you.
Kalpana: ok, you leave it there. I will have it later.
Ragahv had to go to office as he had to attend few important meetings. After he finished his meetings he came home early. He directly went to Kalpana's room. Seeing her putting all her cloths into the luggage, Ragahv asked,
Ragahv: Kalpana, why are you putting your cloths back into the luggage?
Kalpana: Ragahv, I am going to India. My flight is tomorrow morning.
Raghav was shocked.
Ragahv: Tell me you are jocking Kalpana
Kalpana: I am not.
Ragahv: But you promised me that you will not go.
Kalpana: I have to go there. Dadi is not well.
Ragahv: But I spoke to dadi in this morning. She didn't sound sick.
Ragahv cupped her face and said,
Ragahv: Are you upset on me?
Removing his hand from her face, she said,
Kalpana: I am missing dadi a lot.
He noticed her eyes got filled with water.
Ragahv: Ok, we will go together. Please give me two weeks.
Kalpana: You don't have to come with me.
Saying so Kalpana left from there.
That night neither Ragahv nor Kalpana slept. Both of them were hurt. Ragahv was hurt as she was leaving and Kalpana, thinking Ragahv has given Katelyn, her place. I wish I could dig your heart and mind so that I would be able to stop you leaving, Ragahv thought. I wish it was all my misunderstanding, Kalpana thought.
On the way to the airport there was totally silence in the car. Once ragna reached the airport, Kalpana took her luggage in her hand from him and turned to leave but she felt a strong grip on her wrist. She looked back. They looked into each other's eyes. It was clearly visible into their eyes that how much they were hurt. He pulled her into his arms. Their eyes got filled with water. Both closed their eyes to let them flow. Ragna were in each other's arms for a while.
Ragahv: I am sorry if I made any mistake unknowingly.
Kalpana wiped her tears off. Breaking the hug, she left from there without giving him a glimpse.
