Aashna.......Sujal&Kashish.....Last Part....8/30 - Page 112

3 days later

Kashish tried to ignore Abhinav's company issue......but she just couldn't so finally she decided to take matters into her own hand and find more information about the company.....she finds out that Abhinav's company was suffering much more loss each passing day...if it keeps happening then some other company is likely to take over the company soon......Kashish was getting impatient because didn't want to lose this golden opportunity at any cost so she decides to speak to Sujal once he comes back from the office...Kashish was in the kitchen when she hears the bell....she rushes to the door to open it....It's Sujal standing there with red roses in his hand..He smiles at her whilst resting his arm on the side of the door....

Sujal: good evening sweetheart....i missed you so much today..

Kashish: kya baat hai aaj itne romantic ho rahe ho..

Sujal: sirf aaj hi?...main to hamesha hi romantic mood me hota hoon jab samne tum hoi ho to...

Kashish: nahi woh aaj red roses....uske bad sweetheart...aur phir you missed me ....isi liye puch rahi hoon...

Sujal: hmmm....lagta hai ab muje yeh sab roz karna chahiye ab...kyun jaan...by the way here are some beautiul red roses for my beautiful wife

He hands her the roses...Kashish takes them and smells them...

Kashish: Thanks you sweetheart ..ab andar chale ki yahi pe hi..

Sujal was suprised by her words and looks at her speechless......an idea strikes him and he smiles mischievously.....

Sujal:waise muje yahan pe koi problem nahin hai...i really don't mind

He moves his cheek towards her..

Kashish: lekin muje problem hai...ab andar chalo..

Sujal just sighs then walks in closing the door behind him...he goes and sits down on the sofa and starts to undo his tie....Kashish stands behind the sofa....and bends down and kisses his forehead...Sujal smiles then looks up at her

Sujal: i love you jaan

Kashish: I love you too....

Kashish runs her hand on his shoulders and takes off his tie...He just smiles and closes his eyes because her touch was relaxing him.....he holds her hand in his and kisses her hand...then makes her come around the sofa and sit on lap whilst holding her around her waist.......Kashish places her arm aound his neck...

Sujal: tumhara din kaisa tha aaj?

Kashish: mera....mera thik tha..

Sujal: theek tha matlab?...kya hua kuch kehna tha kya?

Kashish: nahi....tum pehle dinner to karlo ...phir baat karte hai...

Sujal: Kashish batao na...koi pareshani hai kya?...dinner baad me bhi hosakta hai

Kashish: nahi pehle maine kaha na Sujal...hum dinner karte hai phir hum baat karenge....I dont want to spoil dinner...

Sujal: achcha theek hai pehle hum dinner karte hain ab khush?

Kashish: hmmm.....tum fresh ho jao...main dinner lagati hoon....

Sujal: theek hai main bas abhi fresh hokar aata hoon...

He kisses her on her cheek then she gets up from his lap.....and he goes to their room to freshen up.. after sometimes he comes back and sees her standing at the dining table waitng for him...Sujal sits down on his chair and makes her sits also

Sujal:ab jaldi se dnner karte hain kyunki aaj muje bohat bhukh laggi hai.

Kashish: kyun bhukh lagi hai....aaj aapne lunch nahi kiya kya...

Sujal: nahin...kiya tha...lekin jaldi me kyunki aaj meeting me jaana tha..

Kashish: oh main to puchna hi bhul gayi...kaisi rahi tumhari meeting..

Sujal: haan...bohat achchi rahi...hume contract mil gaya hai naye ad ke liye..

Kashish: congrats jaan...I am so happy...

Sujal: thanks jaan...ab jab tumhara pyaar aur dua mere saath hain to muje kamyabi kaise nahin milengi

Kashish: woh to hamesha se hi hai...ab baatein kam khana jyada tumne kaha na abhi ki tumhe bhukh lagi hai..

Sujal: haan woh to muje laggi hai...tum khilao na jaan...

Kashish: sach me?...

Sujal: aur nahin to kya mein mazak kar raha hoon..

Kashish: nahi maine aisa to nahi kaha.....ab idhar dekho...main khilati hoon...

Sujal just smiles and turns towards her while opening his mouth...she places the spoon in his mouth...he eats only half of it then takes the spoon near her mouth...she smiles and opens her mouth whilst eating the remaining food...they continously feed each other dinner...wishing that they could stop time at this very moment......after they finish....Kashish gets up and starts to clear away the table with Sujal's help... finally after cleaning they go to their bedroom..

***************************************************************************************

Sujal was sitting on the bed waiting for Kashish, who was in the washroom changing........when she finally comes out he looks at her and smiles.......suddenly he remembers that she had something to say to him before....

Sujal: Kashish...tum mujse kuch baat karne waali thi dinner ke baad...batao kya kehna tha tumhe...

Kashish: woh Sujal....Abhinav ki company ka auction aaj se saat din yani diwali ke agle din hai...

Sujal looks at her surprised...

Sujal: Kashish...maine tumse kaha tha na ke tum Abhinav ke maamle me dakhal mat dena...to phir tum kyun is baat ki gehrai me ja rahi ho...muje kuch nahin jaan na...aaj ke baad hum is baare me baat nahin karenge..

Kashish: baat kyun nahi karenge Sujal....zara socho agar humne Abhinav ke contract ko bhi SK me kar diya to hamari company kis position pe ja sakti hai....aur Sujal main pichle ek hafte se is pe kaam kar rahi hoon aur muje lagta hai ki hume us auction me jana chahiye...

Sujal: Kashish mere manna karne ke baad bhi tumne aisa kiya?...maine tumse kaha tha na ke is maamle se durr raho...phir kyun tum nahin bhool jaati is baat ko?...muje SK ki position ki fikar hai lekin main yeh risk nahin le sakta...main jaanta hoon Abhinav kaisa hai isliye main uski company se aur usse durr rehna chahta hoon...aur main chahta hoon ke tum bhi yahin karo..

Kashish: I am sorry Sujal.....lekin main jan bujke aise moke ko haath se nahi jane de sakti.....Sujal tum yeh kyun nahi dekhte ho main dekh rahi hoon....aur phir ek bar uski company le lene ke bad hume thode hi Abhinav ke saath kaam karna hai....aur phir bhi tumhe uske saath koi baat nahi karni hai to koi baat nahi....main Angad ya Kripa se kahungi ki woh SK me se mere saath chale is deal ko final karne me...

Sujal starts to lose his patience...

Sujal: Kashish kya tum meri baat ko samaj rahi ho...maine ek baar na kaha na...main Abhinav ki company me bilkul bhi interested nahin hoon...aur tum usse hargiz milne nahin jaogi...i don't want you anywhere near him...aur yeh mera aakhri faisla hai...bas

Kashish: lekin Sujal tum meri baat samjo to sahi....use milne me kya bura hai...

Now Sujal was fuming with anger as he has lost all his patience......he begins to shout...

Sujal: bas!..bohat hogaya Kashish!..main kabse tumhe pyar se samja raha hoon lekin tum ho ke meri baat ko samaj hi nahin rahi!...har baar ki tarah tum apni hi manmani kar rahi ho!...muje Abhinav ki company me koi interest nahin hai!...hum usse hargiz take over nahin karenge...aur yeh mera aakhri faisla hai...aaj ke baad tum is baare me mujse kuch nahin kahogi!...thats enough!..

Kashish: Sujal...tum bina waje hi chila rahe ho......isi liye ple apni aawaz neechi rakho.....aur ab tum chahte hona ki hum is mamle me koi baat na kare to thik hai...tum woh karo jo tumhe karna hai aur main wahi karti hoon jo muje thik lagta hai...ab raat kafi ho gayi hai tum so jao.........

Sujal: muje chilane pe tumne majboor kiya hai Kashish...aur na hi hum is pe koi baat karenge aur na hi tum Abhinav ke maamle me dhakal dogi...and that's final...goodnight...

Sujal looked at her one last time then closes his curtains after he lies down on the bed....Kashish walks to her side and sits down on the bed......she looks at him laying on his side with his eyes closed.......tears start to roll from her eyes.......Kashish closes the curtain on her side and also lays down........she turns toward him and holds his hand........Sujal doesnt react at her touch...he keeps his eyes closed...he was hurting on the inside but no matter what he couldn't get rid of the pain.....he keeps still as a statue.....Kashish looks at his face and feels guilty.....she closes her eyes and snuggles closer into his arms......keeps a tight hold on his hand........after a while both fall asleep.....but their hearts were still hurting.....

***************************************************************************************

Next morning...

Unlike the other days today was going to be a dull day because it was raining outside........Sujal opens his eyes when he hears the steady beat of rain drops hitting the window.........he looks at Kashish who is snuggled to him due to the cold morning...her hand still held his hand tightly...he just lies there looking at her for sometime...then gently releases his hand from her grip and gets up...he was about to go to the washroom but he turns around and places his pillow beside her and wraps the bed covers around her to save her from the cold.. then goes to the washroom...Kashish opens her eyes as soon as he left..she knew that he was awake....she remained sleeping because she knew that he is still in a bad mood.........but a small smile appears on her face when she feels bed covers that he put on her......Kashish gets up and ties her hair....After sometime Sujal comes out wrapped in his towel...he didnt think that she would be awake this early......he sees her sitting on the edge of the bed.....he looks at her for a moment then goes towards his closet to take out for his clothes... Kashish looks at him and tries to behave normal...

Kashish: main nikal deti hoon...

Sujal just looks back at her...

Sujal: nahin...its ok...main karlunga..

Kashish: tum aaj jaldi jag gaye,,,,,aaj office jaldi jana hai...

Sujal: hmmm...ek ghante me meeting hai to muje jaana hai...

Kashish: main tumhara neeche breakfast laga deti hoon...jaldi neeche aa jana...

Sujal: nahin...rehne do...zyada jaldi me hoon...wahan karlunga...

Kashish: lekin Sujal....main kar deti hoon...

Sujal: its ok...muje abhi waise bhi bhukh nahin hai...

He takes his clothes and goes to the washroom to get changed..Kashish understands that he is still angry at her....she goes to his closet and gets his tie.... Sujal comes out of the washroom and goes to the mirror combing his hair when he sees her holding his tie through the mirror....he turns around and goes to her taking the tie from her hand...

Sujal: thanks...

Kashish: breakfast to nahi banane diya...ab tie bhi nahi karne donge.....tum karo use jyada jaldi me kar dungi...

Sujal looks at her...

Sujal: woh main raaste me baandh lunga..

Kashish: tumse thik nahi banti aur phir meeting bhi hai..

He doesn't know what to say...he finally gives up and holds the tie infront of her..Kashish takes the tie from his hand and holds it....she walks towards him while looking at him....but he wasnt looking at her....she moves her hands and starts to do his tie.....

Kashish: aaj itna naraz ho gaye ki apni Kashish ko hi bhul gaye...

He looks towards her with pain in his eyes...each word she said was piercing through his heart....but he consoles himself...

Sujal: aisa kuch nahin hai...bas aaj jaldi me hoon isliye...

Kashish: thik hai main samaj sakti hoon..........yeh lo tumhari tie bhi ban gayi...

Sujal: thanks...main ab chalta hoon...

He looks at her....picks up his briefcase...then walks to the door......but he stops at the door and turns around looking at her

Sujal: Kashish...breakfast karlena...bye

He leaves from there...

Kashish: bye....good luck Sujal..

but it was too late...Sujal had already left..

When Sujal reachs the bottom of the steps...a tear rolls down his cheek...he wipes it then leaves for the office... on the other side Kashish stands at the window hoping to see his face one more time....When Sujal reaches his car he looks at it...but he wasn't able to sit in it because he felt as though something was stopping him..his eyes longed to see Kashish again......he turns around and looks up...he sees her staring down at him..she looks at other side and wipes her tears.......She then looks back at Sujal with a smile....she knew that her tears will make him weak ...she doesnt want to hurt him anymore now the hurt is giving her pain.....He could sense that she was crying...he knew she was hurt with his behaviour and he couldnt do anything about it.....and that was killing him more...but he just couldn't go and take her in his arms...even though thats what he wanted...he looks at her for a while then sits in his car and leaves...

***************************************************************************************

2 days later...

Things aren't better between Sujal and Kashish...infact there were worse....now they were behaving like strangers...they hardly interacted with each other......they only spoke to one another only when it was needed.......they lived in the same house....but it felt as if they were alone.......because both were feeling guilty......but Kashish was adamant...she wanted that company at any cost...so she got in touch with Angad and asked him for help...he agrees to help her and tells her to arrange a meeting with him....Kashish reaches Hotel Taj around 3:50 PM as per Angad's intructions.....he said that Abhinav will come around 4:00 PM.....Kashish was waiting for him while drinking her coffee....When she sees Abhinav walking in 10 minutes later...he came in and walks upto Kashish's table and sits down across from her...

Abhinav: Mrs Kashish Sujal Garewal...aisa kya kaam agaya aapko mujse ke aapne muje yahan milne bulaya...

Kashish: Mr.Kapoor....aap to aise ban rahe hai jaise ki kuch jante hi nahi...

Abhinav: main sach me nahin jaanta ke aap mujse kyun milna chahti thi...ab aap to har kaam alag andaaz se karti hain isliye aapka yeh andaaz muje kuch samaj nahin aaya...kahiye what can i do for you..

Kashish: I have never seen anyone like you.....teen din bad aapki company ka auction hai aur aap kuch nahi jati...

Abhinav: oh...to aap uski baat kar rahi hain...main achi tarah se jaanta hoon...lekin aap kya kehna chahti hain mujse us auction ke baare me..

Kashish: I want to make a deal on your company.....main nahi chahti ki ki aapki company auction tak pahonche...

Abhinav: ok ok wait...if i'm not mistaken...aap chahti hain ke SK concepts meri company ko khareed len right?

Kashish: excetly.....to aap ka ab is bare me kya khayal hai....kitni price me deal karenge...

Abhinav looks at her and then starts laughing...

Abhinav: don't tell me you are serious...i mean aapne soch bhi kaise liya ke main aapke saath koi deal karunga...isse behtar to meri company ka auction jaana hai...chahe kuch bhi hojaye...your good for nothing husband will never get my company..

Kashish: what did u just say?.......himmat kaise huyi tumhari mere samne mere hi pati ko aisa kehne kii...

Abhinav: maine wahin kaha jo sach hai...he is useless...tabhi to khud yahan aane ke bajaye aapko bhej diya...i mean uski to itni himmat nahin horahi thi ke woh mujse aa kar deal ki baat karen...aapko bhej diya...

Kashish: Mr.Abhinav Kapoor.....tum shayad yeh bhul rahe ho ki SK ko akele bananewala Sujal hai....aur tumne apni company kis tarah kiske bal pe banayi hai woh bhi main achche se janti hoon............aur yaha pe muje Sujal ne nahi main khud apni marzi se aayi hoon kyunki hamari SK tumhari company jaise nahi ....bahot se clients aur meeting hai....aur aisi choti baat ke liye aur tumhare jaise insaan se milne ke liye Sujal ke pass waqt nahi.......ab tum bolo..kya keemat longe.....kyunki muje kisi bhi hal me yeh company Diwali se pehle chahiye...

Abhinav: aur maine bhi kehdiya na...main yeh company hargiz nahin bechunga aapko...and thats final...

Kashish: tumhari company to main hi leke rahungi....aur tumhe apni loss me jati company pe jo gurur hai use maine media ke samne nahi toda to mera naam bhi Kashish Sujal Garewal nahi.....aur by the way....aaj se teen din bad tumhari company ka new owner Sujal Garewal hoga....isi liye abhi se use sir kehne ki aadat dal do.....aur Sujal me itni insaniyat hai ki woh tumhe koi choti si job to de hi dega....kyunki woh tumhare jaisa nahi... isi liye ab tum jao aur teen din tak intzaar karo...

Abhinav: we will see Mrs Kashish Sujal Garewal...aisa kuch nahin honewala hai...aur muje aapka yeh challenge manzoor hai...

Kashish: aaj se teen din bad subaah 11 baje se pehle tum khud apne haatoin se paper sign karke Sujal ko donge.....ab main apna waqt tumse baatein karne me nahi bigadna chahti....See u Mr.Kapoor at auction...

Kashish gets up and walks away from there in frustration...when she reaches the door she bumped into someone because she wasnt looking where she was going.......she almost lost her balance and fell...but she quickly holds onto the persons shirt and she feels 2 familiar hands around her waist...she looks up and realises it was Sujal...

Kashish: su....Sujjall....tu..tum ..yaha...

Sujal: meri meeting hai kuch clients ke saath...lekin tum yahan kya kar rahi ho?

Kashish: main bas aise hi yaha se nikli to coffee ke liye aayi thi....main chalti hoon...

Sujal: hmm...ok...

He lets go of her when he sees Abhinav walk out...he looks at Kashish angerily..she had realises that he saw Abhinav......he looks at her for a moment then goes towards the reserved table.....Kashish turns back to look at him but he was sitting with his back towards her.......she leaves the place without saying anything to Sujal...

***************************************************************************************

10.30 at night

Sujal still has not returned home...Kashish was waiting for him with every passing second she was getting more worried...she called the office but his PA said that he left from there 5 hours ago and then she called his mobile but was switched off...finally she had no idea what else to do....so she kept pacing the room...the door opens and she sees Sujal stood at the door...he looks at her for a moment then rushes straight to their room... Kashish also ran behind him towards their bedroom....she sees him throwing his coat on the sofa....and sit on the bed........He sees her coming and looks at her...with anger visible in his eyes...he gets up and starts walking towards the washroom...

Kashish: Sujal....

He just stops suddenly and stands there with his back towards her...he remained quiet...

Kashish: itni dair tak kaha gaye the....maine office bhi phone kiya ...aur phir tumhara cell phone....lekin woh off tha....sujal agar off hi rakhna tha to cell phone rakhne ki kya zaroorat hai.....

Sujal turns around towards her...

Sujal: bas!..bohat ho chuka!...tum jo yeh dikhawa kar rahi ho na Kashish uski zaroorat nahin hai!...kyunki main achi tarah se jaanta hoon ke tumhe meri kitni parwah hai!...itni ke mere manna karne ke bawajood bhi tum Abhinav se milne chali gayi...kitni baar maine tumhe manna kiya lekin tumne meri ek nahin sunni!...now just leave me alone...muje tumse koi baat nahin karni...tum karro apni manmani...

Kashish: Sujal main apni mamani kar rahi hoon ...kyunki tum meri baat to samaj nahi rahe...aur main jo kar rahi hoon woh SK aur hamare future ke liye kar rahi hoon.....aur muje nahi lagta ki main koi galat kaam kar rahi hoon....lekin meri yeh samaj me nahi aata ki tumhe meri baat kyun samaj me nahi aati.....Sujal try to understand...

Sujal: kis baat ki kammi hai tumhe Kashish?...batao muje...aisi kaunsi tumhari khwaish hai jo maine poori nahin ki...kya tumhe lagta hai ke hamare paas jo hai woh kam hai!...maine kaha tha na ki tum Abhinav se nahin milogi...phir bhi tum wahan pe gayi...agar tumhe kuch hojata to?...agar woh tumhe nuksaan pohanchata to kya hota Kashish!...lekin nahin...tum thodi na is baat ko samjogi!...apni zidd to tum kabhi nahin chorogi...

Kashish: tumhe lagta hai na ki yeh meri zidd hai to yeh meri zidd hi hai.....ab tum bhi dekhoge ki main apni zidd kaise puri karti hoon.....aur Sujal tum to muje achche se jante ho ki muje sab kuch best chahiye aur meri khwaish yeh hai ki is industry me tumhara koi competitior na ho.,,,,kaise karoge meri khwaish ko puri,,,'Sujal muje jawab do....kya karoge tum...

Sujal: tum mujse ek baar kehkar to dekhti...main tumhari har khwaish ko poori karta..lekin tumne muje mauka kahan diya..har kaam ka ek tareeka hota hai aur yeh tareeka galat tha..muje tumse yeh umeed nahin thi..

Kashish: Sujal maine tumse pehle baat ki thi...lekin tumne meri baat nahi mani....tumne mere pass koi rasta hi nahi choda to main kya karti....kyunki tum to mera saath nahi dena chahte the is liye ab to sab kuch muje akele hi karna hoga.....kyunki main jis apne Sujal ko janti thi woh her pal mera saath deta tha lekin tum aaj woh Sujal nahi rahe........

Sujal: muje tumne badalne par majboor kiya hai!..tum bhi to badal chuki ho...main tumhara saath dena chahta hoon Kashish...lekin agar tum galat ho to main tumhara saath nahin desakta

Kashish: aur tumhe kyun lagta hai ki main galat hoon.....ek bar muje bhi batao ki kya maine aisa kuch galat kiya hai ....jisse tumhe sharam aarahi hai....ya yun to nahi ki tum mujse tang aa gaye.........

Sujal: bas Kashish!...tumne aisa soch bhi kaise liya...muje yakeen nahin horaha ki tumne aaj yeh baat kahi hai ke main tumse tang aagaya hoon...bas itna hi jaanti ho tum muje...shayad tum muje kabhi samaj hi nahi paayi...

Kashish: shayad sach to yeh hai ki tum muje kabhi samaj hi nahi paye.......

Sujal looks at her then goes to the washroom without saying anything....Kashish gets his laptop and files goes to sofa and starts to work on the project.......When Sujal comes out.... he sees her sitting on the sofa working on the laptop....He goes towards her drawer and gets her reading glasses then puts them on the table infront of her.....she looks at glasses and then at him but he turns away...without saying anything he goes and lies down on bed closing the lights on his side and curtains.......Kashish puts her laptop on side and gets the glasses...........she wears the glasses while looking at his side of the bed because she knows that he won't be able to sleep tonight....He lies on bed not able to sleep...he can hear her typing away on the laptop...She doesn't know what she was writing because she couldn't concentrate at all....she puts the laptop on the side and because she thinks that it's bothering him ....she gets the files and starts to read........after an hour she falls asleep on the couch...Sujal doesnt hear any noise coming so he gets up to see what Kashish is doing..he sees that she was asleep on the sofa....he gets up and goes towards her removing her glasses and taking the files from her hands and placing them on the side...he lifts her in his arms and takes her to the bed placing her on her side of the bed...he closes her light and curtains then comes to his side of the bed and lies down whilst pulling the blanket over them..She was in deep sleep forgetting about all their problems.......she turned towards him and puts her arm around him .....he looks at her and holds her hand and trying to remove it...But he wasn't able to remove her hand and he didn't want to wake her up so he just leaves her and closes his eyes

Hey Summi and Kashish,

Thanks for another gr8 part.....wow....talk about tension......I cant believe it their fight.....I feel soo bad.......but I know that it will soon blow over...and they will be back to their lovey dovey selves again....after all Sujal is all about romance......I cant believe Kashish is going against his wishes.....but she is thinking about the future of SK which Sujal will understand at the end....cant wait for the dark clouds to leave.......and for the romance to start again......thanks for the part...best of luck for the future parts.....

Love

Mira
