Part-1
''I missed you Mom'' Nupur said as she hugged Anna
''Me too darlin'' Anna replied while gently stroking her back '' U look pale .'' ''I think this should be my question and not yours ...specially when you are so prone to accidents or may i say, avoidable accidents '' Anna showed a boring face to her daughter ''u havnt changed..have you ? I thoughts three years of separation would have instilled the meaning of space'' she said with a giggle but soon hampered it by Nupur's look ''you expect me to scream in joy after looking at the bandages on your elbow and hands'' Nupur said as she examined the wound more carefully by puling Anna's sleeves up ..
''goosh girl..stop handling me like this.. We are at airport !'' they both smiled.. Somethings never change ..even if they are suppose to happen again after 3yrs
Nupur looked around as they made their way to home...the place where she was born , place she grew , place she witnessed the worst ups-n-downs of life and place which made her strong ..just like her Mom .. !
''U need to slow down'' Anna warned the driver as they crossed a small bridge .
Nupur looked at Willow Cottage which looked beautiful in clear moonlit with its white walls almost hidden beneath swathe of sweet-smelling blossoms from climbers. It was exactly the same ...her own life might have faced twists and turns but Willow Cottage had not.
We both climbed out of taxi and i excitedly moved towards the place ..
Anna unlocked the door and as soon as Nupur stepped in , shock was written all over her face ..
''what exactly you did with this house?'' Nupur said with horror and looked around place which was deserted of all its furniture and sheets spread all over the floor, somewhere around the corner Nupur saw cartons of paint and varnish ..and paint brush untidely placed near them
''amm..nothing much ..Was just trying to give it a new look '' Anna explained and Nupur seemed far from getting impressed by her Mom's idea
''I dont know how long will it take for you to understand the meaning of rest'' Nupur moved , carrying her baggage inside while Anna just has satisfied smile on her face...The feeling of her daughter being close to her was beyond words to explain.
Nupur dozed off early coz of tiring journey and Anna was busy stroking her daughter's hairs ...
*********
''Rohan when will you understand that i dont need your bloody affection !'' Mayank stromed out of his cabin . He lept in his car and drove as swiflty as he could ..
''Why dammit ! why people has to look at me with pity ! '' he banged his hand hard on the wheel ...
Mayank looked at his buzzing cell ...it was Rohan ..but now he needed time of his own .
Mayank parked his car near Cheshire Hall ..and banged open the door of the lady incharge who eyed at Mayank carefully '' dont you think its quite rude of you Mr.Sharma?'' she said resting her eyes again on the file
''No..i dont think so. I just wanted to sign the agreement paper for Flat No. 3'' he said casually , ignoring the lines of frown on the lady's forehead
''As you say .. '' she got up from her place to fetch him with papers while in meantime he looked at Flat No. 3 from the window..
''Here you go Mr. Sharma'' ..she forwarded teh papers and soon with signatures the deal was sealed !
''Hope this house brings new fate ..'' she said in an emotionless tone
''You ought not to repeat this line to every customer of yours , even when you hardly mean the words '' he said and grabbed the keys of his purchased flat ..
''Good bye'' Mayank said moving out of the room
*****************
''Mom did you talk to the agency ?'' Nupur asked as she handed over the cup of hot chocolate to Anna
''Hmm..yea i did ! You just need give your signatures to own that flat'' Anna said sipping while her eyes still wobbling around the various shades of blue
''Mom do you actually find the idea of paining this whole damn place on your own logical ?'' Nupur said irritated
''Nupur..i know you dont like this stuff but you very well know that i love doing such things.. They provide a zeal to my life !'' Anna said calmly
''I didnt mind you doing such stuff but sine your health is at stake , I am not gonna let you do anything silly '' Nupur said firmly while Anna looked at her . Anna took a deep breath and looked at her determined daughter ..
''Dont you think you should atleast visit your new Flat once ?'' Anna made a try
''Mom this wont help you a bit ..and if you think changing the topic will help provide you any sought of relief..then you are absolutely wrong !'' Nupur said getting up from the only couch and headed towards balcony
''I was just taking my chances'' Anna mumbled to herself and again went back to shades of blue...
Gentle air carressed Nupur's hair and finally she clutched them back ...she sighed and closely looked around the cottage .. It was so beautiful ..so at peace ..She wondered what exactly made her leave this place and shift to Australia ..
But somethings ought to happen . Hadnt been she lived in Australia, she would have never met Abhay ...never had fallen in love with him ...never wanted him by herside...never wanted more of her both physically and emotionally and never wanted him to love her back endlessly like she did ...But did she actually loved him ..?.''No'' an honest answer came up in her mind ...Maybe it was the answer which all together made her life meaningless back there in Australia..
She felt pang on guilt conquer her soul when she confronted that she actually wanted him physically ..Tall, broad chest, perfect face and amazin mouth , what else a girl wants ..But the sudden opinion of woman in her made her life vague in Australia..which somehow convinced her to get back to England and start with her new novel ...and new life .. ! But will Abhay move easily out of her lyf ?....She left this desicion for fate to decide.
Thats it guys,..Hope you like it
