Part 18
Dinner gone smoothly.
Sakashi couldn't fuss over her meal cause of her sister. She had to eat everything knowing her sister's anger (but know most of her time she's going to use the washroom flushing out everything) by throwing up.
40min later
Viren stood up with his family saying goodbye to Anvesha Auntie and the rest. Sakashi stop him from leaving "Jiju, how can you leave without me" Sakashi asked and pouts.
Arjun and his Choti Maa look at Sakashi confusingly.
Viren: Correct how can I forget my Laadi! Go and get your things. I know you want to stay for last time with us before we leave around 6 in the morning in few hours.
Sakashi smile grew bigger for few second until Arjun open his mouth "I know Sakashi you want to spend time with your siblings, but I can't let you go in this condition" again into frown.
She trying convincing him "But Arjun" he glare at her. She gulp down her own words and look at her sisters with tearful eyes.
Anvesha saw Sakashi's expression: I have solution to your guys problem. I know Arjun doesn't want Sakashi to go cause of her wounds and he is worried for her. Sakashi wants to stay with her sisters than only one way.
Arjun and Viren: How?
Anvesha: Simple, if Sakashi can't go there; than her sisters can stay with her. Is that alright with Sakashi Beta and her sisters?
Sakashi: Haan Auntie. That's great.
Sakashi look at her Jiju
Sakashi: Please Jiju
Viren agrees: Alright, but no late night gossiping. Jeevika, me and Virat will come directly at 5:30 to pick you and Manu up. You know we have to be at the airport three hours early cause its international flight.
Jeevika: Haan Virenji. Don't worry. We won't spend entire night talking.
Maanvi: Par Viren Jiju, it doesn't matter if we stay up chatting cause we can always sleep on the flight otherwise you have some other plan (she wink at Viren and Jeevika blush)
Viren: Manu
Maanvi: Sorry Jiju
Viren hug Maanvi than Sakashi.
Sakashi grip onto him tightly "take care of yourself Laadi" "aur main" Manu pouts "aur tum bhi" they have tiny group hug.
Virat: Now I feel lonely. Bhabhi, can I huggie?
Jeevika hug Virat whispering few things in his ear.
Anvesha admires them...
Arjun roll his eyes.
Rathore mouth open widely seeing this side of Virat. He always thought of him mature, but he's immature by his acts.
Viren about to step out of the house (meaning Rathore's place) when his phone rang. He answer it.
Voice: Daddy
Viren smile grew: Hey Baby. How are you doing?
Voice: I am doing good. How is Mom and you?
Viren: I am doing fine, Rudr. You wanna talk with Mom? Otherwise she isn't going to stand quiet until she has her share of chatting with you.
Rudr: Yes Daddy
Viren gave Jeevika the phone.
Jeevika start talking emotionally with Rudr and questioning him about his behaviour with everyone and his school stuff. (Every question a mother can ask her child when she or her child is away).
Sakashi just grab the phone from Jeevika "Kya Di. You are so boring and bitter" she held phone closer to her ear "how is my Baby doing? Missing Masi or not" Rudr got happy hearing his Mahi Masi's voice.
Rudr: I miss you so much more than Chachu. You know last time Chachu came he forgot to bring me anything, but I know my Masi. She would something for me or make my gift ready through Dadi. I love you, Masi
Sakashi: Aw! Rudr missing Masi the most than Chachu. That's my baby. Masi loves you too and misses you.
Virat got hype and grab the phone "what did you say, Champ" Rudr start tapping his finger on his forehead "I didn't say anything. I love you" Virat got happy "Chachu also loves you too"
Maanvi took the phone "Hey Prince, how you doing?" "I am doing fine Manu Masi" Rudr said.
Afterwards Rudr gave his phone to Kadambari and ran away "Hi Manu" "Hello, Chachi" Maanvi spoke, but she notice her Di's moist eyes. Maanvi just gave Sakashi the phone and ran after Virat (because he was teasing her while she chat with Rudr).
Sakashi gathering herself strongly "What's sup, Momma? How are you doing?" Kadambari got emotional too hearing Sakashi's voice after many gaps "How can a mother be without her children? Anyways how are you Mahi" Sakashi could sense the pain in Kadambari's voice "I am doing fine, Momma. How is Papa and Dadaji?" Sakashi asked.
Kadambari: They are doing good. We miss you and love you too.
Sakashi: I love you guys so much and Momma
Kadambari: Haan Beta
Sakashi: Momma, in short notice I wasn't able to shop anything for Rudr. If you don't mind taking him out to any shop of his choice and buy him something otherwise he's going to think Masi forgot him just like his Chachu did.
Kadambari: Sure Beta. Come soon
Sakashi: I'll try. Bye Momma
Kadambari: Bye Beta
Sakashi hang up and return her Jiju his phone. Thanking him through her eyes. He just nod his head after giving a kiss on her forehead.
Viren: Take care of yourselves and no late night adventures. Understood girls!
Sakashi and her sisters just nod their head and wave goodbye to them.
Next day, five in the morning,
Jeevika woke up and look at her sides. She admire her sisters sleeping peacefully cuddling with her.
She entangle herself out of their grips and kiss them on their forehead. She enter inside the washroom get ready. She know anytime Virenji and Devarji can come.
15min later
Sakashi woke up hearing water running in the bathroom. She found her sister side empty. She knew her sister gone to take shower and she also thought to fresh up in her husband's room.
Before leaving the room, she gave tiny kiss on Manu's forehead. On her way, she found entire room dark.
She turn on the light.
She notice bed empty. She knew her husband must have woke up, but he wasn't inside the room or the washroom otherwise she would hear the water running. She continue unpacking her things. She fish out her cotton churidar.
Sighing away her inner thoughts controlling her emotion sudden darkness caught her off guard. Her arm got twisted within friction of understanding anything and silent "ah" escape out of her mouth.
5min later
Arjun return from his jog. He notice his room lights on (cause when he left... He had turn it off and Sakashi is sleeping with her sisters in the guest room. Cop inside him took over his sense).
Extremely slowly he enter his room and switch off the light. Figure inside startle by sudden darkness. He sneak up behind the figure and twisted its arm.
Hearing the "ah" screaming out of pain. Made him realize its his own wife. He let go off her arm and turn on the light.
He saw her rubbing her arm and blowing on it.
Arjun: I am
Sakashi: How can anyone be so harsh on their own spouse?
Arjun: I thought you were sleeping with your sisters. I didn't know you would wake up early and come in here. I'll bring ice for your arm.
Sakashi: Its okay!
Arjun just watch her enter inside the washroom.
He sighed and stood looking out the window. Recalling yesterday night reality session of his wife through her sisters. He heard them talking about the hardship his wife gone to give her sisters the best life.
Arjun close his eyes. He can clearly hear Maanvi's voice when he had gone to give Sakashi her medication.
Maanvi: Didu, I know you have never told anyone about the struggles you have gone through growing up. Only to give me the best environment any person can get. After our parents death we had some money issue, but you never disappointed me and always granted my wish before I could ask for anything. I love you so much Didu and always will cause our blood relation aren't weaker than any relation in this world.
Sakashi embarrass Maanvi in her arms and caressing her back "what I've done its nothing compare to our father. I still remember those rough times when I was only three years old and Dad faced huge lost in business. He would never show his anger and frustration on me and Di. He would always give us the best over his own struggle to save the business empire and feed us. He never let Mom step out of the house. He always gave us the best environment anyone could ask for and without knowing about his rough days we took him for granted. Slowly, my desire for things vanish throughout growing up and becoming more mature than my age. I would fuss over staying home on any days off from school. I would make Dad take me office and I would admire his way of handling things and slowly he became my role model in life. I love Daddy the most and miss him a-lot. What I've done is or doing is only for the best of our future and I promise I would not let anyone hurt my prides and that is my blood relation" Sakashi place tiny kiss on Maanvi's forehead after realizing she fell asleep. She place her slowly on the bed and notice me through mirror reflection. I notice the sudden question in her eyes if I heard anything and to make it easy I just enter inside the room and gave her the medication.
She took them in my appearance. We had slight chat on her health and than I left her room after her elder sister came inside the room. She greeted me with smile and I return a nod.
10 second later
Loud knocking sound brought Arjun out of his thoughts. He sighed and felt proud of his wife.
Arjun open the door
Jeevika stood with bright smile. Arjun found her dressing sense slightly different than what she display few days ago.
He gave her tiny smile greeting her back and invited her inside the room. She came inside, but seeing the room condition she had many thoughts.
Arjun saw her gaze and clear his throat to get her attention toward him instead of their suitcase "I know what you are thinking, but there is no problem between me and your sister. Its just have to keep extra clothes with us in-case anytime case come and we have to leave for days and much more" Jeevika just nod her head agreeing with him and avoid the awkwardness they feel at the moment.
Arjun: Sakashi, would be out soon. You can wait for inside the room.
Jeevika: Actually, Jiju I came here to chat with you about few things regarding my sister cause I worry about her. If you have few time to spare on me?
Arjun heard the shower turning off and now Sakashi wouldn't like her sister revealing things to him without her permission.
He sighted.
Arjun: Um, I think we both know how Sakashi is so I would suggest to go in the garden if that is alright with you.
