Part 31: Dev's insecurities
Rohan was feeling frustrated, as soon as he came back from college he went into RB"s chamber. He was said that RB was in some serious meeting, but he ignored and dashed into RB's Chamber shocking every one else.
Rohan :RB i need to talk u.
RB:Rohan, what happened. Are u Okay?
Rohan:RB, seriously I need to speak with u all alone.
RB understood some thing was wrong so he followed Rohan silently.
Once they both were into a private room RB asked Rohan "What happened?"
Rohan: Uncle I just want to ask u one thing, who's Ruby.
RB:My daughter.
Rohan:Whose Radhika?
RB:What happened Rohan???
Rohan: Whose Radhika RB.
RB: My sisters daughter.
Rohan: Oh... truly... then how come Ruby and Radhhika are look a like.
RB became silent. "U saw Ruby"
Rohan: How can u expect me not to see, when I am living in her beside room and also studying in same college/ Whats the reason for hiding the face of Ruby RB?. all these days u said that Vishaka and Ruby were twins, and we all indeed believed it. but whats the reason to lie us.
They heard some one clapping from back. Rohan turned back to see Ruby standing there. RB looked at Ruby and said "Why did u come here"
Ruby: RB first of all the discussion was about me, so I have every right to be here.
Rohan: So u know whose Radhika is ?
Ruby: Yeah how come I don't know of my sister.
Rohan: Ur sister?
"
Ruby:Haan, the sister of me, who was chosen by her mom to stay with her because of that bloody eye problem. And for the sake of her, mum abandoned me. She gave me away to RB to raise me as RB's daughter.
Rohan felt confused, he looked at RB///
RB started the thing "Rohan, both vydehi and soniya are joined in hospital for delivery at same time. that day soniya got the twins, and by then vydehi's delivery wasn't complete yet. Then we came to know that one of the babies of soniya are dead, Vydehi just then delivered to baby girls, when she came to know of it, she decided to give one of her babies to me as soniyas daughter so that at least one child of her can get the royal life, the life they deserve. At that time she took Radhika along with her because of the eye problem of Radhika and gave ruby to me. All the days she lived, she never want ruby to know the truth, but I can't hide it from ruby when she died, I just let her know this. because ruby had every right to go to her mom's funeral. This was what happened. "
Rohan felt himself under a shock, and sat there, .
RB:Rohan, we never let Radhika know any thing of this, because, Ruby doesn't want to meet Radhika. Thats why only she never came to Vrindavan or Mathura. She just hate those places.
Ruby blurted in anger "Yes, I hate those places, and those people, who abandoned e. I hate Radhika, she was the reason because of which I got separated form my mum. I hate every one there. "
Rohan looked at Ruby, he can understand her because he too faced it . He gets anger with the very thought of his brother, but he felt bad thinking of Radhika. whats wrong in her, she might not have even opened her eyes yet, but she was being hated by some one to this extent. Its not right. Ruby is not right. RB was looking at Rohan with the fear, he might say some thing to Radhika. Rohan took a deep breath and stood up saying "I won't say any thing to radhika uncle. Sorry for disturbing u from ur meeting. " saying this he walked out to his room. Ruby sat there with tears in her eyes, RB went to her and caressed her trying to make her normal.

Dev was waiting for Radhika sitting on steps, its already 9:30...Dev was starting to get worried... Then he got the biggest shock, it started to rain... "Damn, this girl was walking in this rain only... I need to catch her. "
Dev called for Radhikas phone, but she wasn't picking it up. Dev decided to go to the temple and get her picked up.
On his way to the temple he found a girl sitting under a tree shivering... Fearing it might be radhika, Dev went to her to see if ever she was Radhika. But for Dev's relief she wasn't Radhika .
He reached the temple and found that Radhhika had been picked up by some one. Dev was relieved for an instance that she was safe... so he returned to the flat. and when he was about to park his bike then he found Radhika in a changed kurta pyjama bidding bye to some one. Dev peeked in to find who was it? and for his shock it was virat, the senior whom he met in the morning.
He stood behind the pillar to listen their talk...
Radhika;Bye sir..
Virat smiled and said "Radhu, u know I already said u that I don't like Bye, tell me see u.
Radhika bit her tongue and said "Sorry sorry, see u"
Virat: Any way, next time when u go to temple, call me I will also accompany u.
Radhika assured him saying "yeah for sure. then daily be ready to get my call"
Virat:daily???
Radhika:Just kidding, but I often go to temple. so if u wanna accompany me then u may get some frequent calls from me.
Virat;Okay done. any way, I am getting late, I just said to mom that I will return in 10 minutes and came out but I ended it being one and half hour.
Radhika:See u sir.
Virat:See u.
As Virat drove out.. Radhika smiled and went up. Dev felt anger down the heart, so he silently went up into his flat.
Radhika got a call from chaya that they will be late, Radhs assured them that he will serve food to Dev, so she went to Dev's flat taking the food. But she found Dev sleeping on sofa. "Dev get up, eat and then sleeP"
Dev:I didn't have any mood to eat now.
Radhika tried to wake him up by pulling him down the sofa, then she found that his hair was wet. Radhika asked him 'Did u go to any ride in this rain."
Dev: Haan...
Radhika:Whats such necessity haan? where did u go?
Dev:Temple.
Radhika who was serving him stopped and looked at him in shock "Temple"
Dev:Haan, I went to temple to get u. but u left by then with some one.
Radhika: Haan, Virat came to temple then only, he saw me clue less in the rain so, he dropped me here.
Dev:Whats the necessity? U should have called me.
Radhika:Dev its raining, and I know it well that u have problem of sinus, I can't risk ur life. and also he's my friend
Dev:Don't u have any girls as friends, always u have only boys as friends
Radhika: are u okay Dev?
Dev:No, I am not okay,,,, did u get it, I am not okay.
Radhika:why? and for ur info its my life and I can do every thing I want. By the way, why are u concerned for me this much
Dev grabbed her arm and brought her near him and said "Because..."
Radhika looked at him, she tried to find if ever she can find any love in his eyes, but instead of love she found some anger, and insecurity. She got angry and said "Haan, because... Continue..."
Dev:Because, I promised ur chachi that, u will be safe. I can't let u to bring strangers to ur home like this.
Radhika:he's not stranger, and I said u he's my friend.
Dev looked at her, he can't believe her fighting with him for some stranger, he can never even expect her to do this. He looked at her and said " then get lost of here."
Radhika:Dev, please eat some thing I will go.
Dev:Just get lost, I need not eat any thing which was brought by u.
Radhika gave a sigh and said "I am leaving the food here, if ur tummy gives any hunger contractions, then eat it. other wise go to hell. "
Radhika was about to leave when she turned back and said " For ur kind info, my friends will continue to come to my home, and u has no right to intervene in it. So enjoy ur self. gud nyt"
Radhika came out and went into home locked the door and sat herself in the room... Then he got a message from Viraat "Hi"
Radhika feeling frustrated throwed the cell on to floor and fell on bed, going into sleep.

At same time in Vrindavan...
RV was very tensed and disappointed because the prayer was got interrupted by rain and every one was saying it was a bad omen... Though he was advising the pandits to do some thing which will neutralise the bad effect, he himself was worrying what will happen. Then he thought to call some one who can give him peace of mind... he was trying to think of people, who will give him peace, but other than Radhika, he can find no one. Thinking to himself why he was feeling that much attached to Radhika, he called her...
Radhika woke up with a jerk, when she heard her phone ringing. she rubbed her eyes and took the phone... "Hello"
"Hi, beta its Ram"
Radhika:Raghuvansh ji... aap iss samay mein.
RV: actually, mind was a lot disturbed, thought to speak with u.
Radhika wondered, why RV choosed to talk with her when his mind was disturbed, but ignoring the thought she spoke "Boliye. kya hua"
RV:U know it well, that we had an important prayer today here, but the hawan was interrupted by rain, and never it happened , its the first time. we all are worrying whether it will have any bad effect/
Radhika smiled and said "Raghuvansh ji, I guess u are fearing for a small thing. This hawan was done by ur family from ages, to get gud atmoshphere and pleasant ness for ur people. Rain always give pleasant ness na... and if we say it correctly, ur prayer was answered by gods, immediately. then why u people were worrying"
RV was truly amazed by her answer... he can't help from praising her in his mind. he spoke out... " but the yag was not yet completed."
Radhika:Chill uncle, when u got the answer of ur hawan, why to worry that it wasn't completed. If ever u had any such fear, then as a thanking to god, do another hawan on the coming auspicious day. God will punish us for our bad deeds, not because we complete the hawan. and also u didn't do it wantedly na... how can one expect to get the rain on such a day. u had no fault.
RV smiled and said "Ur family is really lucky to have u dear"
Radhikas smile faded and she felt tears from her eyes , rubbing them off she said "Thanks uncle.. I am a bit sleepy, need to go to bed"
RV: okay beta, study well... have some gud sleep.
Radhika:See u uncle..
RV:Bye, sorry sorry see u beta.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dev came to the window and looked to the side of Radhikas room... He can find no one in side...
Dev: I am sorry Radhika, How can I say u that I love u. How can I say u that "I can't see u with any one else than me" . How can I say u that I doesn't want u to go away from me. How can I say u that, I am feelng insecure seeing ur friendliness with others. How can I say that Viraat is a most handsome and a way better person than me , who makes me jealous, and worried that u may love him. How can I share all these with u Radhika. How???
