PART 4 : Flakes

Answers any day for me were an impossible feat..I could only ask questions..Answers were like those far away forbidden apples I couldnt reach upto..And tonight was another perfect example..For long I had stayed there in the woods staring at the blankness in front of me yet trying to take in every bit of the remnants of his presence..I stood still shaken by what happened to me..All I could remember were his words that still buzzed around my eyes..It was haunting yet it was reality..I tore into a hundred million pieces when I heard him say it..And each time I thought of it I felt like I was flying out of my body..I wished I wasn't still breathing..I wished everything just came down..I wished I hadn't have to live with this..

Everyone's desperate call for me waved into my ears..I was shaken by reality and slowly walked back..I dint know what i looked like..It was only the sensation that came..The kids were freaked out when I went missing..I could not answer questions..Words stuck in my throat..Muskaan saw I was not myself..And she just got things in hand..She knew talking wasn't what I needed..I just needed to be alone working out all that in head..

I reached my bedroom with great difficulty..It seemed so oddly strange to me now..Everything around me was strange..

The whole situation was taking a high on me..I was convinced he came back..But the huger question of why he came back still drove me crazy..If he knew that I was waiting, dint he want to know why I was waiting for him..If he knew that I could not move on, dint he want to know all those intoxicating times when his eyes mysteriously would appear in my dreams as a pair of deep blue eyes gazing right through my soul..Dint I myself have the right to know who he is, now that I knew he dint marry me just for the sake of saving me..Dint I have to know why he is been on the dark for 2 whole years and suddenly makes an appearance to my already dramatic life..

I shut my eyes as little drops fell off like pearls from my eyes..But it proved to be worse that I could possibly think..I could grasp nothing but the emptiness of my life..All I could hear were his last words..All I could feel was the warmth of his touch..All I could rewind when I shut my eyes was the stillness of our bodies coupled with the wondrous tingling chills that I bore upon his breath on my neck..It was past me that I could think sensibly at the moment..I had a hundred million feelings churning my head out..

His words played back itself in my memory..Like they were the only words my head had ever registered..I felt pangs of worry creeping inside me..I tried to think deep..He came back..But he came in the dark..He came not wanting to let go off anything that stopped him from me..And thats when the word 'coward' slashed across my head..It hurt me a million more times to even think about it..But wasn't that the truth??Was I wrong?? What else am I supposed to believe when he seemed to have been making a distance for 2 years and suddenly appear, unwilling to let me see him, and that too with words like "Move on" which had replaced the "I love you" that I long yearned for..

Yet the more I replayed his smooth voice I felt something..Something that my insides smile..Why was there an unknown yet strangely familiar crave in his voice..I could feel every bit of his voice shaking..I sensed then itself that he dint want to do this..That he dint mean what he said..I was closer to him than I thought..And I was content that I connected to him in one way..I was even more blissed that I could hear his heartbeat..It sounded like music to my ears..I had read a number of love stories all my life..I have read vivid descriptions of romance..Long essays of passion..But this..This stayed beyond all that..It was like everything that was dead just sprang up alive..It was beautiful..I had finally summoned to my husband..Though not literally but somewhere thats how it meant in my dictionary..

It killed me that I couldn't see him one bit..Not a glance..Not even a gaze of his eyes which starred my dreams so often..I wanted just one second of them..Just one second to thank him for lifetime of love..I wouldn't be able to thank him in words..Because English just couldn't put emotions in the right words..I was so against fate that he came so close to me and yet the prospect of seeing him was out of chance..

I guess I have multiple personality..Why else would I be dead on doubtful at first and then smile secretly with joy and then feel pathetically sad all of a sudden..I now began worrying if this is another one of my innovative dreams of how we both shall meet..But even then I wasn't so creative..But it still looked like a dream for a girl as ordinary as me..I traced my left hand over my right ring finger as another part of my supposed dream came in..Yes it was there..The surface dazzling like the naughty rainbow passing through the shy dew drops..

I touched the small rock that laid so gracefully upon my finger..I looked at it so lovingly that it be my child..It felt immensely great as much as i was Queen of the World..That little diamond there was the flawless reminder for me that he came back FOR ME..He came back TO ME..And that I wasn't dreaming..

I decided it was getting late..I have my first day at office awaiting me tomorrow..Even though my stomach growled a bit I ignored it..I wanted to sleep than eat..I curled up under my blanket..I took my sleek ipod and hit the play button..It was on shuffle mode..I felt oddly good when music I dint expect came up..This time it was "Kuch Khaas Hai" that sprang up..I smiled..How convincingly connected my life was with my ipod..He came back into my dreams..His face never clear yet those blue eyes as glorious as ever..

He had left me with an impact he hadnt imagined I am sure..He left me open to him..He left me engrossed in him..And most importantly he left me after shouting into my head that I loved him and that I wasn't just thankful to him..
___________________________________________________________________________

"Good Morning..Ms.Ridhima", the receptionist greeted me as I inquired about my appointment..
"Please..Make it Mrs.Ridhima..I like it better..", I blushed..
It was tough to keep hiding the sindoor and even more tougher to wear the sindoor at the cafe next to the bus stand..I of course could not wear it from the orphanage itself..As much as I knew it was etiquette to call a Mrs Ms on formal matters..I quite preferred Mrs.
"Oh, thats fine..So Ridhima..I guess we need not have this formal stuff in the first place because we both seem to have the same age..Myself Naina..", she smiled warmly at me and I felt home for the first time at this huge mansion like office..
"Nice to meet you Naina..", I replied back with an equally warm smile..
I was called in to Mr.Mallik's room just about 5 minutes later..He wished me luck and smiled in a way to make sure I was okay..I smiled back to tell him all was well if not perfect..Its weird how relations work in this planet..

My first job..The funniest of all..To meet everyone in the office and get familiar with all my works..And I had time till lunch..Mr.Mallik sure loved some fun..I loved this place already..Everyone seemed so happy working here..

I met practically everyone..I tried remembering all their names and matching it up with their faces..Its a tough task I tell you..And so my entire morning passed by with shaking hands and exchanging information..I dont think I have ever put in so much of information into my poor head..Tee Hee..Naina took me to the cafeteria, a small beautiful place within the building itself specially made for the empolyees of this enterprise..

"So what do you want..Pav Bhaji ya burger ya sandwich", Naina ranted about the menu..My head spinned..I decided to stick to pav bhaji..I just loved it to no extent..I could eat all day and all night without feeling anything wrong in the stomach..Naina raced off to order while I waited for her..

"Heyyy..Are you Ridhima???Myself Sidhant Malhotra..Waise I knew someone new would arrive..But I am sorry I was with Mallik sir..And you know you are lucky to be his secretary..He will take care of you..And he does seem to like you..Told me to make sure you are doing good..Hey not eating anything???", he said..I rolled my eyes..
"Do you happen to be ANYONE of Muskaan??", I asked simply looking at him with questions..
"What??Whos that..Well maybe you know..Dada has 14 siblings..He says they all have atleast 5 kids..Must be their grandfathers..I always happen to have family everywhere..So maybe yeah Muskaan must be my cousin in some ways..", he told me and I stared at him wondering why I had only replicas of Muskaan around me..
"OK..I am sure if not biologically unbiologically you definitely are related to her..", I murmered lightly to myself..
"Excuse me..Aapne kuch bola???Woh kya hai na I was concentrating on the line..What a long queue..I don't think I will get anything to fill myself before midnight..", he told me..
"Do you know how to breathe??", I asked simply..
"Huh..I am sorry..I dont get what you mean..", he looked at me with confused eyes..
"Inhale exhale..Inhale exhale..Remember?", I explained with demonstration..
He eyed me so innocently and suspiciously to make sure if I was making fun of him..I burst out laughing..And he too started laughing as he figured out what I was implying..He seemed good company..And I instantly liked him..Naina joined us..and all three of us sat, ate and laughed like young teenagers..

____________________________________________________________________________

"Hello, Naina..What happened..", I asked Naina..She had called me up while I was arranging some files..
"Ridz..Some Vivek Gupta wants to meet you and it seems he has special permission to do so..Sir told you have to meet him at the lobby..He is waiting for you.."..Naina informed me..
I wondered who this Vivek Gupta would be, who wants to see me..I hung up after thanking her..

___________________________________________________________________________


"Yes..Mr.Vivek?", I asked the stranger man who sat very formally in a blue shirt and denims..I hadnt seen him before..
"Ms.Ridhima?", he enquired..And I confirmed I was Ridhima..
"Well..Ms.Ridhima..I am sorry..I am from the Police..We are working on a secret case..And we believe there is something we need your help for..You have been involved in a smuggling case..Atleast indirectly..We believe that you have been trapped because your actions can easily prove you are innocent..But I have got to arrest you..Its my duty..Your arrest wont be publicized..I promise that..Its just to keep the certain people at bay..I have taken permission from Mr.Mallik..and he thinks you can get back when you are done with us..", he paused..Probably for me to take in what I just heard..
My insides burned..What the hell was happening..How on this earth could I be involved in anything as big as smuggling..Forget all that..I had no clue who is the current President of Spain..How did he expect me to give him information on this..I started sweating and panting..
"Its ok Ridhima..I promise you that nothing will happen..We just need your cooperation..We think you are a link to the criminals..Some way or the other..Shall we move.."
Whatever was happening..I was blank..He was actually going to ARREST me..If not literally but still I was taken but police..A collection of people I never really admired..Always felt them to be corrupted people who ruin the lives of innocent..
__________________________________________________________________________

I collected my handbag in utter silence..Thankfully no one noticed my mood change..I quietly went to Mr.Mallik and told him I was leaving..
"Its ok dear...I understand..You wont lose your job..Take Care..",he said giving me courage..I forced a smile..He placed a hand on my shoulder..

___________________________________________________________________________

"Vivek, Can you tell how you guys came to me..I mean how did you guys get to know I am the link..", I asked Vivek..We were sitting in his car..And he was driving us to god knows where..I knew I could trust him..It was written on his face..He seemed less like those police I assumed.
"You read newspapers right?", he asked plainly..
"Yes, I do". Was that even a question..It was absolutely necessary for anyone to survive in this world of competition..
He applied the brakes and parked the car by the side..He took a newspaper and handed it over to me pointing a particular report..
"Read that", he told me.
"I did already read it..", I informed him..It was the report I read yesterday..

Mumbai, a tremendously growing spot for international smuggling

Recent raids has indicated that Mumbai has now become a spot for international smuggling..All sorts of smuggling including diamonds, non licensed guns and many other valuable products..The police suspects one major gang behind all the happenings..Chief Investigative Officer, Mr.Vivek Gupta has assured that the Police are on the chase and that people must be alert for any information that is valuable..He says that the gangs leader has been found to be a certain 'Amihdir'..Since the name sounds foreign, all tourists are thoroughly checked..

"What about this", I asked him back..I could make out nothing from this..
"You see that name there..Of the leader", he asked me..
"Yeah..Whats wrong??", I questioned him..
"Well..Read it backwards..", he sighed..
World stopped..I could hear my own heart beats..I shivered..I was too stunned by what I read..Ridhima..Amihdir was my name spelt backwards..The newspaper itself shook with the effect of my shivering..
"Ridhima..", I told, barely audible..
"Yes..Thats our link..Our only major link",Vivek told..and it was obvious that he was forced to do this..

Why???I asked God..Time, hopefully will reveal..I shut my eyes as the smallest drops sweept my face..


OK phew!! Thats it for the 4th installment of this FF..Finally a twist..I cant wait to see your expressions especially those who dint guess that name thingy..
And about the writing..Well..I dont think its as good as part 3..Just wrote it simply..I edited it thrice but its all i could muster..I am sorry if it turned crappy..Not even re reading it..So let me knoew your opinions..
And btw again the title to the part..Flakes..Mmm It actually means a small piece a bit..Since this part has a bit of everything, happiness, sadness, anger, friendship, change, surprise and shock..I titled it Flakes...again i dont think this ones as good as Dancing Souls.

Looking forward to good long comments..Even if its short I accept..I am very very warm hearted..🤣
So seeya..Take care..love you all..
<3

*GASPS* *FAINTS* *THUD*

Yeh kya tha?! 😲 Riddhima was "INDIRECTLY" related to that smuggling thing?! Aur kitne shocks dene hain? Jitne bhi dimaag mein ho na, abhi ke abhi bol! I can't handle too many massive heart attacks, alright!
Anyways, the part was awesome! Loved how you described Riddhima's feelings and her interaction with others. The last bit was a shock! Smuggling? Really? Amihdir? Please don't tell me the so called leader was ARMAAN MALLIK! Which reminds me missy. Armaan is a 'Mallik' in this FF right? Because if he is, then he's the son of Mr. Mallik. But if he's the son of Mr. Mallik, then there is no reason for him to get in that smuggling business because the smugglers, obviously, do that for money and if Armaan's a 'Mallik' then he doesn't need it! But if he isn't a 'Mallik' then he probably does have a reason. So if he isn't a 'Mallik' then most likely he's the leader of the gang. But why did he use the anagram of Riddhima's name? Amidhir? Did he come back to trap Riddhima by giving her the ring? Or did he just come to warn her to stay away from him?
UGHHH! MS. AMAL INSERT MIDDLE AND LAST NAME HERE! IF YOU DON'T UPDATE THIS FF IN LESS THAN A WEEK, I WILL SPAM THIS FF AND SEND YOU ONE MILLION PM'S TELLING YOU TO UPDATE! UNDERSTOOD!?
