Navri and her eternal victimisation
Part 19- First Attraction
When Raghu reached at the premise of Sharma mansion, it was almost 6.30 pm. He had a bandage in his left hand as Avay nearly forced him to have it in their way from Dutta's. He was carrying Antara's newly purchased guitar in his right hand. Raghu was feeling terrible and tired both physically and emotionally. Avay had already suggested him at least 1000 times that he should take rest tonight and inform Antara that he would cover that later, but the problem was- something inside him was aching just thinking that he wouldn't see her tonight and may be that was his heart. Avay had also lectured him not to be too much involved with this matter that later it hurts more but ...again...his heart didn't allow him to spare a whole day. Who knows...how many days have been left to see her?? How many days have been left to have her close to him and show his right on her?? How many days have been left to watch her pout, smile, cry, shy, elated, crazy,...loving?? He didn't want to waste a single moment which he could have spent with her. For that reason, though his wound was still raw, his mind was still agitated from his former encounter with his mother and his eyes were struggling to stay open...he finally decided to spend the evening with Antara...as he promised.
Avay: After I reach home, I will send the driver to get you from here...as you are unable to drive tonight. Your hand is...
Raghu: It's ok buddy!!! Don't worry about me. I am a grown up man.
Avay hugged him and bid a good bye. He left.
Raghu was about to ring the door bell, suddenly he realized that the wind was very restless and the sky was getting almost black.; as if a storm was about to hit the earth. He looked forward and was just about to ring the door bell, just then...the door opened itself...AND Antara was standing in front of him. She was smiling from eye to eye. She was wearing a pink suit with matching dupatta. Her hair was dancing in the wind which made her even more beautiful. Her eyes were twinkling and suddenly he realized that he should stop looking at her like this as it was making her uncomfortable.
Raghu- How do you know that I have come?? You opened the door at the right moment!!!
Antara- That's a secret!!!(grinning) That's the special charm of Antara Sharma. (She stepped back and let him come inside)
Raghu: So?? You were waiting for me??
Antara: Of course. Though I had a doubt that you would come in this weather, still I was hoping. And look at you!!! You didn't let me down!!!
Raghu: I have something for you!!!
Antara: What?? OMG!!! Is it a gift??
Raghu: Sort of. You told me na, that you wanted to learn how to play guitar...
Antara: OMG!!! YOU HAVE BROUGHT A GUITAR FOR ME???
Raghu: Ohh...ha ha...calm down!!! Yes, I have a guitar for you and I am going to teach you how to play it.
Antara: Hmmm...someone is getting very desperate to listen to the love song in his honeymoon. Haan??
Raghu got a bit uncomfortable!!! He looked around and it seemed that there was no one in this house.
Raghu: Where are uncle and aunty??
Antara: Ohh...they are stuck in my aunt's house. They were about to leave for home when they found out that the tires had been punctured. They will be late tonight.
Raghu got furious from inside. He said- So..so...you are saying that you are all alone in this big house and hovering around without seeing anything??
Antara: Arre baba wait!!! I have got a governess. She was with me the whole time. And she was really sweet. She has the contract to stay with me from 9 am to 6 pm. As I was alone. She insisted to stay longer but I forced her to go home. Because she has an 8 years old baby boy in her home.
Raghu: But you should not have let her go!!! This is dangerous. Upar se, weather is not very well.
Antara: I said na, I had hope that you would come.(She pouted)
Raghu: Arre what if I wouldn't come??? WHAT IF SOMETHING BAD WOULD HAVE HAPPENED?? WHAT IF YOU SLIPPED FROM THE STAIR??
Antara: Why are you shouting at me??(her eyes got filled with tears)
Raghu immediately calmed down. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Raghu: look, don't do this kind of stunts, ok?? You are still not accustomed to this new situation.
Antara nodded. She wiped her tears and became cheerful again.
Antara: So, you are going to teach me tonight??
Raghu: You can say that. I will teach you some basic things about guitar. You have to practice a lot. It's up to you how fast you want to learn!! You can take lessons from me any time now.
Antara: Ok.
She touched Raghu's hand and let him go to her room. He felt very unnerved as there was no one in this damn house right now but they are, two young people. He said to himself-
Be normal!! You are attracted to her, but don't let that emotion over power your sanity. She trusts you and so her parents. So, be a good man and stay within your limit, ok??
Raghu: Hey Antara!!! Can I ask you something??
Antara: Anything!!! (She smiled)
Oh gosh!!! Why she has to look so beautiful tonight!!! And her smile!!! Ohh...my...God!!
Raghu: Can I have the lyrics of your song?? It will help me to compose.
Antara: Of course!! There must be some paper on my desk. I will dictate and you can write!!
Raghu picked up a paper and said- You can start.
Antara told those lines again and Raghu wrote that. He folded that in his pocket and looked to her.
Raghu: Now, I will tell you how to hold your guitar.
Antara was standing like a statue, holding her breath.
Raghu: (burst out laughing) Why are you so serious??
Antara: I can't believe that at last...AT LAST...I am gonna learn it!!!
Raghu: Be easy...(he stood behind her and held that guitar in front of her) Touch it's arm by your hand at first!!
Antara touched her guitar for the first time. She touched the strings and the smooth surface of the instrument.
Antara: Ohhh...it's so beautiful!!!
Raghu: Now, hold it!! It might be a bit heavy for you. But don't worry. You will be habituated.
Antara held that guitar by arms and didn't quite understand how to place that along with her body.
Raghu: Wait...wait...let me show you...
He put both of his hands on her hands from her back and made her hold the guitar. He was trying his best not to become so much close to her that it crosses the decent line. But things got a bit ...unplanned.
It started raining cats and dogs outside...again!!! Antara suddenly turned around toward the window as the sky started thundering. It was a reflex. And by doing that, she didn't understand that her face got too close to Raghu face that ...it was a bit ...romantic!!
Raghu felt her warm breath on his face. He convinced his mind to step aside as he realized that he was breathing faster than his usual way. But some devil inside him stopped him to move an inch!!! He couldn't resist to take a thorough look at her beautiful face.
She had applied kajal in her hazel eyes. Her nose was in perfect proportion to her face. Her cheeks were naturally pink because of her fair complexion and her lips...they were...
Antara: Sameer,why are you so silent??
Raghu: Nothing. I was just admiring...I mean wondering that...where are uncle and aunty now?? It is raining. They will get in to a huge traffic!!
Antara: Ohh...don't worry!! They will reach very soon, I am sure!!
While she was talking, Raghu realized that he had left holding the guitar for her long time ago. Actually she was holding it in perfect way when he was busy to drool on her beauty.
Raghu: OMG!!! Look at you!!! You have already learned how to keep it in hands . And should I say, you are looking like a rock star??
Antara: Stop oiling me!!! I know that I am looking very stupid.
Raghu: Who said that?? You are looking really good. It seems this guitar had been built only for you!!
Antara: Really??(she became happy) Now tell me how to play that.
This time Raghu became very careful. He made her sit on her bed and sat beside her. As the guitar was on her lap, he had to put his hands by both sides of her body t show her how to play it.
Raghu: Hit the strings. Lightly.
As Raghu's mouth was very close to Antara's shoulder, she felt ticklish because his breathing was falling in the hollow region of her neck. She tried to concentrate hard. She hit the strings...but no sound came.
Raghu: Hey...not THAT lightly. Put a bit more strength.
Antara tried to turn around and it happened again. Her face got too close and this time it was her hair. Raghu's face got emerged in to her silky black hair. Raghu was about to move back but the sweet scent of her perfume was violating his decency.
Raghu had to almost push himself behind to avoid further consequences.
Raghu: Why are you turning around?? Just hit the strings a bit hard. But don't cut your fingers.
Antara did the same. This time perfectly.
Raghu: Thank God!!! Now ...(he held her hands and made her touch the other parts of the instrument)
He told her and taught her about the fundamental lessons of guitar. He also made her play a bit. Though it was random, he wanted her to gather the confidence to try at least.
Raghu: It will take time. But don't worry. It seems you are a fast learner. I am with you.
Antara: Thanks for your patience. I know my blindness and all these sudden changes may irritate you but I promise, I will try my best.
Raghu: I will never get irritated. You can be sure about that.
Antara: Phir bhi!!! Thank you!! I will practice it. I have also downloaded some audio lessons on guitar for the vision impaired from you tube.
Raghu: Really?? How did you do that?? I mean, how did you use the internet without watching??
Antara: My governess did that for me.
Raghu: Ohh...alright. It seems my student is very enthusiastic about her motto. Good!!!(Raghu stood up)
Antara smiled. She put the guitar on her bed and stood up too. Raghu was about to walk in front of her but she stepped on his feet accidentally as she didn't realize that he was stepping before her just that moment and both lost balance. They fell on the bed.
Raghu was all over Antara. It was a very awkward moment. Raghu tried to move aside but at the same time she also tried the same. So they ended up even more intimate. Their bodies were sort of glued with each other. Raghu was a completely gone case this time. He was literally ogling on her and Antara sensed that look. She closed her eyes in anticipation. She was hyperventilating. Raghu slowly put his eyes on her lips and he found that it was...parted this time. Suddenly he felt very thirsty. He bite his own lips and pushed him backwards. He had to break himself to do that but he just couldn't take advantage of this situation.
He sat up and made her sit on the bed too. Antara was a bit shocked.
Raghu: ummm...I have to go now. The raining has been stopped. So ...umm...keep practicing. I will call you and let you know about our upcoming lessons, ok??
Antara nodded. She was looking here and there. She was very shy. It seemed really a very uncomfortable atmosphere in that room.
Raghu: (smiled) Don't worry. I won't make fun of you about your closing eyes and parting your lips...
Antara: Ohh...my god!!!(hides her face with her hands)
Raghu: Hey...look at me.(He removed her hand from her face) I know that I am irresistible. It's not your fault.
Antara: Huhh...don't take yourself so seriously ok?? (she got in to a funny mood)It was my kindness that I give you so importance.
Raghu : Ohh..really?? Then when you will get caught in the same situation again, I won't spare you that time.
Antara got almost red in this sentence. Raghu didn't realize what he said at first, but later when she saw her feeling awkward again, he understood that he made a very inappropriate statement. Suddenly he heard a car entering the premise. Raghu looked from the window and saw that Antara's parents had arrived.
Raghu: I have to go now. It seems that Uncle and Aunty have come.
They both walked downstairs and opened the door.
D.S: Hey, beta!!! How are you?? When did you come??
Raghu: I came when the rain started. Uncle, I have to go now. I was waiting for you two. Otherwise, Antara would have been totally alone. Bye uncle! Bye Aunty!!
Antara: Sameer!!!
Raghu stopped! He turned around and said- What??
Antara: Thanks for everything!!!
Raghu: No need to say thanks!!! You have no idea, for me how precious these moments are!!!
Antara smiled and waved hand toward him. He waved her back.
When Raghu was getting back in his car, he realized that this whole time, he didn't feel a slightest pain in his bruised hand. He smiled and put his head on the car seat. He closed his eyes and registered the whole evening in his mind...FOR EVER!!!!
Precap:
Antara: I want you to take me in a date!!!
