Armaan vs. angad part 1
this heart of mine
its later part of story just came to me out of blue, since its her diary and she is reading it i figured she can turn to any event she want.
It was the night we came back from our honeymoon. I have realized that I love him. but because he had blackmailed me into marrying me I will let him suffer some more before I tell him I cant live without him. as for the contract that he made me sign he had taken care of that when for the first time he expressed his love to me, so now there was only one person to be won over, my bro Armaan. We went straight to mallik house, ma-pa were really happy to see us make and ridzi was making all kind of dishes for her new brother-in-law, so that she can pressure him into singing just for the family tonight. I couldn't have agreed more. Armaan was not yet back from the hospital. When we went to dinner, angad was in a pitiful condition. Ridzi has already given him 2 helpings of each serving and was serving the third. He looked as if in pain, which now I think maybe he was. Ridzi has a habit of making spicy food and angad is not much into it. After the third helping I took pity on him and to distract ridzi asked when will bro be back? That drew a response from her, she didn't scowl but sulked. She was a doctor too so she knew what responsibilities one have as a doctor, but that doesn't mean she has to like it, especially as she was wife of a doctor. She gave a non committal response and went to grab the dessert from the kitchen. Angad was up from the table in a blink and off to washroom before anybody could stop him. I looked around the table to see if anybody was offended but ma-pa were apparently enjoying it. I scowled at them but couldn't keep the look on my face for much longer I was enjoying it much too much too.
When ridzi came back she found not only angad but his plate gone too, she looked at me with puzzled eyes, and I said,"he just went to attend an urgent call." Ridzi looked mollified with that and said, "oh that ok then we can give him another plate." And went about doing just that. But luckily for angad Armaan came back just in the nick of time so ridzi gave the plate to him. then she became so engrossed in Armaan that she forgot about angad and more food. When angad came back he looked at ridzi warily, but seeing she was busy with Armaan he came to sit down next to me. Armaan looked up and gave a cold nod to angad in a sign of recognition. After that everything was back to normal with angad busy chatting with ma-pa, Armaan brooding about angad over his food, and ridzi fussing over Armaan and everyone else. Once dinner was over I signaled to ridzi to come in the adjacent room. Ridzi came without questioning what I wanted, that is what I have always liked about her, her implicit loyality and love.
When we were both in I closed the door locked it and turned back to face ridzi. Ma-pa have gone out, so now only Armaan and angad were out there. Ridzi looked at me and I explained,"this has gone too long ridzi Armaan and angad can't just go on hating each other. So I have this idea."
"ok I am game what are you thinking?"
"I will tell you later first let us move that almira infront of the door, and yes that sofa will do nicely too." Though ridzi looked more puzzled as the time passed she helped me. When we were done we both sat on the bed out of breath.
"since we have locked ourselves in either they will sit in silence outside or glare at each other, or punch each other." Ridzi gasped at that, "oh ridzi you know they are both tough." "that's what I am worried about, they are matched and if they fight they will end up killing each other." "no they wont, they are both civilized adults, and they love us too much to think of dying." "who is saying they will think?" "we will worry about that later, now listen up. After they are done or maybe before an hour or so later they will start to worry about us." "before for sure, I am expecting krips and Armaan checks with me every 15 minutes. You know how bossy he can be." "oh ridzi you are going to be mom and me his bua, I am so happy. Why didn't you tell me earlier." "I didn't want to spoil your honeymoon because I knew as soon as you heard it you will be back." "ridzi you should have told me." "ok baba I am sorry now get back to our plan." "15 minutes that's much better, it means they will not have time to fight. But it didn't give us much time either, I think 15 minutes are up just about now."
As that moment they heard a sharp rap on the door. It was Armaan as expected, "ridzi open up." Angad has not yet surfaced he didn't know why cant the ladies be alone for sometime. When we didn't answer Armaan began pounding the door with his fist, "come on ridzi, krips you are sensible I am getting worried here, open up." That's what they wanted Armaan frantic so that he will call on angad to help. Hearing all the noise angad came and asked, "Armaan let them be alone whats so urgent you want the gate open now." "ridzi is pregnant and I am ponding for what feels like hours and they have not answered." "ok let me try."
"kripa jaan open up your bro is ready to call police, he thinks one of you murdered the other." Armaan glared at him but he heard giggling from other side of the door, so some of his anxiety loosened up.
