Part 9

Chandni immediately pulled back... "i...i think I should leave now..." she turned towards the door nervously... as she came downstairs her legs quivered...she felt her whole body wobbled for a second...she realized she was sweating...she placed her hand on her forehead...it was so cold outside and she was feeling warm...she didn't look back and went inside her room...she closed her eyes...there was something disparate about Veer...she never liked talking to boys in her whole life and how could she go near Veer. She felt her heart was pushing her towards him, but there was something that stopped her...she experienced two completely different phases...her life, her mind never had mixed thoughts...she quickly opened her bag...took out a small book that her Grandmother gave her, whenever she felt scared or confused it helped her...that was her Grandmother's religious belief...she had a power of predicting anyone's fate...Chandni remembered her Grandmother's words...

"one day your heart will conquer your mind, no matter how rational you are Chandni...you will fall in front of your destiny...you are made to pure someone, to liberate someone...you will fall to your fate's prey, may God always be with you"

she quickly opened her eyes...though she knew Veer had been staring at her and the way he hold her hand...her mind was against him, all the things seem like a chip on her shoulder now...she didn't wanted to stay with him even for another second...she felt helpless...her heart had a erratic feeling for Veer...she didn't hate him...she didn't like him...she had neither of the feelings...her mind was angry at him...how dare he hold her hand...how dare he follow her...how dare he talk to her like that...she wiped a tear that was rolling on her cheek...

------

Kamini was upset since Chandni had gone for her project to Kurseong …..Meenakshi was tired of her Mother's complaints...she least bothered what her Mother said...she was having her dinner when the old lady again approached her "when is Chandni coming back??" she had been asking Meenakshi since last two days... "Mom I told you she will be back soon...i don't understand why you keep on crying over the spilt milk...i am her Mother and I know my Daughter's good and bad"

Kamini was now angry at her Daughter "if you knew that much, then why would you sent your Daughter away...God knows what will happen now" she seemed completely worried...and didn't even look at her plate...Meenakshi raised her eyebrows "Mom...please you are driving me up to the wall now...Chandni is a grown up girl and I have full faith in her...i know she will never do anything that will be against our family"...she said without looking at her Mother... Kamini thought she should tell Meenakshi everything otherwise it might be too late...but on the hand she knew her own Daughter will not believe her... she was tensed... she remembered everything when Chandni was born... she knew her Grand Daughter was different from other girls...she knew Chandni would soon face a big change in her life...but no one can stop from the evil that will fall on her...she knew Chandni was pure and unaware of all the dangers that were coming her way...

the more she thought, the more worried she looked...

------

She couldn't see a single star while she looked up standing in the dark outside the house...there was lightening, and it was about to rain...she covered herself with a stole...she thought of sitting outside for sometime before sleeping...she liked to walk after dinner...but the weather was not good enough and it was too dark outside...she loved looking at the stars, sometimes she even counted them...

"Chandni" she heard him …..she didn't turn around to look at him... nor she moved... "i shouldn't have hold your hand" he said as he came closer …..she did not move or speak anything...he could see her black stole over her night dress...she always looked so beautiful, but this time his eyes were searching something in her...in his whole life he had met different girls who could do anything at the drop of a hat on his single smile, his one look can make any girl fall for him...but it was not with Chandni...she was indeed very different...even when he hold her...she didn't feel anything for him...

He came closer "Chandni i" before he could complete his sentence she turned and without looking at him moved towards the door...she went inside and he stood still watching her leave...

He smiled a little and looked up in the sky "even this night is adorned by you" he crossed his arms and shook his head "you have come to send my sleep away"

She closed her door and leaned against it... with closed eyes she took a deep breath "the storm that's rising, I myself will stop it"

Veer was still looking up as the cold winds were blowing... "love will never happen to me" It seemed he had become a victim of her beauty and a stranger to his own heart...

The night was beautiful but the two people unaware of their fate were thinking about each other...

--------

Kaka opened the box and took out the black crown that had a secret engulfed in it...Veer was too young to get married...it wasn't similar with his Father's condition...those times were different but now if he tells everything to Veer he would never believe him...Kaka was wondering how could he have relation with any pure girl...he felt helpless...there was nothing that he could do to help Veer...his old face became sad...he felt bad for a young boy who will die after few months...only a miracle can save him...Kaka was counting the days...he thought of telling this to Manohar as he was his close friend...

For Manohar it was like a cock and bull story...but when he looked at Kaka who was seriously worried for Veer he kept his hand on his shoulder "every cloud has a silver lining...don't worry everything will be alright". Kaka touched his hand and walked outside...

Manohar was now thinking about Veer's luck or bad luck "my dear friend must have relation with a pure hearted girl...it means angels from heaven must send a girl specially designed for Veer...but how will i find a girl who can save my friend" he wasn't happy to hear...he knew Veer never loved any girl...he remembered how Veer got involved with so many girls while he was in college...but there was no point in scratching the past when his future was in danger...

-----

Chandni kept her bag in the car, then turned to look at Kaka...she smiled and was about to sit when the old man said something that made her melt "Chandni, I look upon you as my Daughter...may God shower all his blessings upon you...thank you for supporting me to complete this project...now I am not worried"

She didn't say anything and smiled...car soon left the steep path and joined the main road... she was looking outside the window...she never wanted to come back to Kurseong...she wanted to tell Mr Guncha she would quit this project...she knew he would ask for the reason...she was thinking...soon the car left Kurseong...she was about to reach home in another few minutes...

-----

Meenakshi was ready to go for her meeting in the town when she saw Chandni... "good you came...how has the project started ?" Chandni looked at her smiling Mother...how could she tell her that she won't be continuing with the project...she was silent... Meenakshi didn't looked at her...she was busy arranging some papers in the file... "Chandni..." she said...as she wanted to tell her about her Grandmother's views and she didn't wanted Chandni to hear all superstitious stories from her Mother "Chandni..." she picked up her ears... "yes Mom"

Meenakshi adjusted her saree... "don't listen to what your grandmother says...she's old and doesn't have anything to do..." Chandni was little surprised though she knew her Mother and Grandmother don't get along well... "don't look so surprised Chandni...listen to your Mom"

Chandni knew they were poles apart... "variety is the spice of life...so go ahead and do something exciting...as you have started with this project...i am so happy that my Daughter is getting independent." she said and hugged Chandni...then left for her meeting...

Chandni stood still for few seconds... she was bad at expressing anything or even explaining anything... it was impossible for her to wear her heart on her sleeve...she picked up her bad and went inside... she only thought about him... something was upsetting her... she made up her mind to pull the plug now...

"hello Grandma" she said politely...while her Grandmother was busy reading...Kamini swiveled in the chair... delighted she raised her arms to hug her darling... both had a moment... "i missed you Grandma..." Chandni whispered in her ear...

"let me look at my angel..." Kamini saw her bright face and big twinkling eyes...kissed on her forehead... "you are my precious gift from heaven..." Chandni knew her Grandmother loved her and she was the apple of her eye...Kamini remembered the day when the priest told her about Chandni's fate...she did lots of offerings in order to save her from all the dangers...she still remembered the words that echoed in her ears...

"your Grand daughter is the gift from the angels...she has come for a purpose, no matter how much you protect her from the evil...she will finally fall at her destiny's prey..."

Kamini could predict the position of her stars...but there was nothing she could do besides praying for her angel...

------

Veer woke up very late...it was due to the medicines Kaka gave him last night... he walked around the house but couldn't see her...he scrutinized each and every corner but she wasn't there...he would never ask Kaka, but he glimpsed at him twice now, while reading his book... "so when are you starting the project Kaka?"

Kaka was little surprised at Veer's question...but he was glad at least Veer was taking interest in something useful "well let Chandni come back...Its Monday...she will be back on Thursday...she attends her college in Darjeeling..." Kaka answered casually while making the bread...

Veer was happy...he was relieved...something had been disturbing him...but there was another question lined up in his mind " Darjeeling???? how far is it from here?? I mean if I want to see the place..."

Manohar could smell something cooking in Veer's mind... "do you want to go to Darjeeling now??"

Veer didn't answer to his prompted question... rather gave him a stern look... "well its not that far...only 35Kms from here..." Kaka answered while walking on the other side of the kitchen...

Veer smiled...there was something urging inside...he wanted to see her, his eyes were missing her...though she didn't talk much but he knew there was something unsaid...

------

Chandni was looking at the ceiling... "Chandni baby..." she heard her maid shouting downstairs... "someone has come" Chandni knew her Mother won't come early...and her Grandmother must have gone to the temple as it was Monday...she didn't wanted to get up but

she got up and looked herself in the mirror...it wasn't how she always looked... her hair was loose...her face was crimson...she wore a small top and a skirt and quickly tied her hair with a clip...as she reached downstairs she smiled and looked at Kamla... "who is it ?" Kamla pointed towards the lounge where two gentlemen were sitting ….. the moment Chandni looked, she couldn't think of anything else... "hello Chandni" Manohar smiled...before she could reply... Kamla bought some hot coffee... Manohar picked up the cup "thanks..." Chandni was now looking at Veer... she couldn't keep her gaze on him...it seemed his eyes were pulling her closer... "hi Chandni..." he said and got up from the couch... she blinked her eyes and glanced around... "hi Veer..." it was not easy...

Kamla went in the kitchen...while Manohar was enjoying his coffee... "i will be back" she said and walked towards her room... she never felt her heart beat so loud...she had to control her feelings...she wondered why she was behaving so awkward with him... she didn't wanted to meet him...as she reached her room, she was breathing as if she was out of breath...She realized her hair touching her cheeks, her clip was not there...her body felt him closer... he was standing behind her... he took off her clip...he entered her room, she wanted to stop him, she wanted to be angry at him for following her...she turned around and looked at him... "why did you?" she couldn't complete her sentence... there was silence...only a feet's difference between the two...he moved his hand towards her hand and touched her fingers, he slowly entangled his fingers in hers... "it looks better like this?" with dreamy eyes she looked at his hand and was aware of what was happening to her... Veer looked at the innocent beauty... he was falling for her... she didn't pulled her hand away...his touch created a turmoil inside her that made her difficult to judge it as right or wrong... "lets go downstairs" he said and pulled her a little...she didn't felt bad and went with him "i came to see Darjeeling" he smiled at her while their hands still entwined...
