Part-4
He slowly removed heavy maroon curtains,pushed open grand window to embarce da new morning.He deeply inhaled fragrance of sweet flowers which cool breeze brought wid it.He enjoyed warmth of sun on his muscular wet body which was only wrapped in white towel.He turned his back as music of bangles echoed around.For a moment,he felt ocean of beauty emerged in centre of his king size bed.Her delicate skin shining like gold in rays of sun which were spoiling her peacefull sleep.He pulled da curtains back watched her continuous till all frowned vanished from her angelic face.He didnt knew wht & why his heart whispered. .He just follow it by removng da curtains again.
As da sharp sun ray fall again on her face,she stires tried to covered her eyes wid back of her hand.He pulled da curtains back bt only till her breathing returns to a delicate rhythm.Her hand slipped back to its position cause her bangles to create enchanting music.Still his eyes on her,he removed da curtains.Her nose twisted in da cutest way.This time she turned to other side left her back for his view.
Urge to saw da flawless beauty made him walked toward da other side of bed.He went closer to queen who own da whole universe or a butterfly who dsnt belong to dis universe.
He came to senses, stepped back as drops of water fall from his hairs on her face.She sat up rubbing her eyes while he quickly moved to dresser,turning his back.She luked around found him busy in dryng his hairs.Noticing him all wet her hands automatically reached to her cheeks for wipping water from it.She fixed her pallu was about to step down,paused noticng pillow & sheet on couch.
She nervously:mujhe pta hi nhi chla kb meri aankh lag gai..men yahan bed pr so gaii.
He was selecting his suit from closet,widout lukng at her he replied: tumhare lye neend puri krna buht zruri hai.doctor ne tumhe neend ki goli di hai.
He added noticing her face embarassed:is haal men tumhara bed par sona hi theek hai,men couch par theek hun.
She luked up at him,he was about to wear his clothes bt paused.The growing heat of awkwrdness forced dm to lukd away.Well,nothing much left hidden btwn them but as somethings r difficult to admit in day light.
She slipped out from bed,turned her back from him.She kept herself busy in folding sheet till dn he passed infront of her completely dressed.He unlock da door started arrangng his files,mumbled:koi breakfast bhi nhi laya men late ho rha hun.
She hesitately:men lati hun.
She headed toward door but stopped as Seema entered wid breakfast.
Maan quickly took her blessings:aap ne kyun takleef ki kisi aur k hath bhijva deti.
Seema lovingly:sara din to tum kaam men lge rehte ho,is bahane mene tumhe dekh to lya.
She took sigh of relief noticing separate sleeping arrangements;distance between them mean less chances of revelatn of her truth.
She smiled at Geet:jaldi se nashta krlo,phr dwa leni hai.
He luked at breakfast tray which include all western mean nothing according to her taste.
Maan:jao tum neeche ja kr nashta krlo.
Seema interrupted:nhi ye bahr nahi jaey gi.
They luked at her confuse.
Seema continue: sara din haveli men logo ka aana jana lga rehta hai, abhi gaoun men sb ko bche ka nhi pta.men chahti hun kuch din aur pta na chle. . .jb tk ye yahien isi kamre men rahe gi.He cud read tension on her face dt made her luk like a prisoner.
Seema was about to left bt Maan stopped her:parathe aur achar bhijva di jye.
Seema lukd hm surprised:bhijvati hun.
She left dm alone.
Eating a single bite more became difficult for him after sensing her beautiful face pale in sadness.Loneliness,disappointment,helplessness...all emotions filled in her silent eyes.He got up,took his files,finally spoke to her:ye books aese hi rkhi hen,tum ne parhi nhi?
She remain silent.He continue:doctor ne dii hai to kuch soch kr hi dii hogi,parho aur ye cds bhi dkhna tumhare lye acha hai.
It was a silent help from him bt she took it from his hand as order.Radha entered wid breakfast(parathas),confused:maalik aap nashta kr chuke.
Maan:rkh do. .nashta krlo,phr tum ne medicine bhi leni hai.
Radha kept it down about to went bt he stopped her.
Maan:mera room buht ganda ho rha hai,is ki saafai kr do.
Radha luked around confused at tidy walls:jii. .par wo badi maalkin. .
Maan headed:tum saafai kro men unhe keh dunga aaj tumhe sara din yahen lge ga.
He went out while she stared behind him in pleasent surprise.Radha excitdly hugged her from behind:sara din kya men to shaam kr dungi. .buht sari baaten krenge buht maza aaey ga.
Geet smiled widely.
Maan stopped at stairs on Seema call.Seema:beta tum office se kb aaey?
Maan:bs abhi aaya hun.
Seema:tum fresh ho kr,Geet k sath thori deyr k lye neeche aa jao.mere kuch khaas mehman aa rhe.mene shehr se us k lye saria aur jewelry mangvai hai,dekhna wo theek se tyar ho gai ho.men bulangi to neeche aa jana.
He nodded went upstair.
She was in washroom so he went to terrace for making an important call.After minutes he headed back to room bt paused at entrance seeing her struggling wid sari.Her creamy skin creatng magic in wine colour fabric.She gracefully wrapped sari around her perfect figure.She was luking same old care free butterfly while dryng her hairs.He kept staring her reflection in mirror.She put kajal in her shining eyes;bangles dance on her delicate wrists.She tied her silky hairs in chotti.In last she put small matching bindi on her forehead & smiled like a little school girl.He watched her widout blink as her expressions change.She curisly luked at her silky arms which were more exposed dn usuall in baby sleeves of blouse.She slightly turned,luk in mirror over her shoulder.Her knitted brows telling she didnt like how much da stylish blouse exposing her back.
She let her hairs fall on her shoulders for covering her back,da way he loved.She smiled contently,mumbling something under her breath she tied her hairs in bun.She wrapped da silky pallu around her waist,thoughtfully headed toward her stichng stuff.
She frozed to saw him standing,not only standing but staring at her.Her innocent eyes moved between him & locked door.
Maan cleared her confusion:men tumhare room lock karne se pehle aaya tha,jb tum washroom men thi.
Her face flushed as her mind registerd his words.She straightnd her pallu,stammerd.He cudnt express in words hw adoreable she look in dese red blush on cheeks & glint of shyness in eyes.Sight of her rosy lips digged out forbidden desire in him.
She passed away from him,unable to bear his gaze which made her feel,thought. . .she never did before.He went to washroom.
She sat on bed,so confused how only his precense brought heat inside her.He looked for words to change da awkward atmosphere:tum ne book parh li?
She jumped on his sudden question,stammerd:parh rhi hun.
She open da book which was placed near her,on bed side table.He took her confused sentence as 'she has been readng since morning'.While dryng his hairs He stole da glane of page which she was reading.His eyes snapped open after reading da title 'Sex during pregnancy'.
He shocked sat infront of her in couch.He open his laptop bt his clouded mind was still around her.The more he luk,found her more engrossed in reading.He was shocked,confused,puzzled. .he was everythng! How can 'dis type of girl' read dis kind of stuff. .so casually;infront of him? Now da way she lukd at him in btwn made him more puzzled. 'wht cud all dis mean?A voice whisperd inside him'Maybe she iz giving some hint?'
He shook his head in No'its impossible' bt dn he thought about 'special problems in dese days.To confirmed she was nt sleepng wid open eyes,he asked:achi book hai naa. .mene parhi hai 'accurate' likha hai.

She remain silent which asusuall he tk as Yes!
He coughed:men doctor ko call kr deta hun. .tum apni problem k lye us se baat kr lena.
She innocently answered:nhi. .doctor se to koi baat nhi krni.
He sooth da tensed muscles behind his neck,he never felt so helpless before.
He hesitatly:to phr btao kya baat hai?
She quietly luked down.
He finally put finger on page:ye problem hai?

His jaw dropped,eyes poped out.In disbelief he stare in space for minutes.He brust into laugh thnkng what cud happen if dis confusion last more five minutes.He paused seeng her nose all red.She snapped:hasne ki zrurat nhi hai. .mujhe hindi parhna aata hai aur hisaab bhi buht acha hai,meri maa ne parhaya tha. Angrezi pharne wala school buht dour tha,mere baba nhi the jo mujhe itna dour le kr jata.

He softly:men tumhare lye hindi men books le aaunga..
He picked da book,close it,,kept it back in shelf.Unknwngly he laughed again rememberng his own stupidty.Unable to bare insult anymore she went out annoyed.
