PART 6
Riddhima sleep was disturb when she felt that she was in something which was moving...
She keeps jumping on her seat and sitting in that position for a long time, make her back ache...
She opens her eyes to when she started to hear people talking around...
Noises keep getting louder as the time past and Riddhima was wondering why she was there not in her bed...
Riddhima open her eyes to see that she was sitting resting her head on someone shoulder...
She look around to see Nandini sitting on her one side while Bi sitting on her other side...
She look at the front seat to see Armaan sitting with their driver who was driving the car...
'Ut gayi... Accha hai...
Hum jaldi yaha paas main ek jhaga pe rokhte hai...
Phir chai naasta karke phirse niklenge...' Bi said seeing Riddhima open her eyes...
'Yeh hum kaha jaa rahi hai...' Riddhima asked not seeing anyone else but Armaan and Nandini with her and Bi...
'Hum Panchghani jaa rahi hai beti...
Bohot Khubsurat jhaga hai...' Bi said...
'Aapne toh kaha baaki sab bhi humhare saat aa rahi hai...' Riddhima said...
'Haan lekin woh log aaj nehi, tohdi din baad aayenge...' Bi said...
Riddhima didn't like that fact that she has to be with Nandini, Bi and Armaan until the other comes...
She was unaware of the fact that Bi was making stories now...
Riddhima don't have any option but to sit there without knowing how her life going to change in these few days...
They stop to have breakfast, Armaan kept quiet while Bi and Nandini keep talking about Mallik Farmhouse in Panchghani...
Riddhima also didn't utter a word as she was not happy the fact that she believe Bi for what she said and came with her...
Riddhima was angry with herself for believing Bi without knowing the truth as she was in her sleep...
Everyone had breakfast leaving Riddhima, she refuse to eat or drink anything...
Nandini got fruits for Riddhima but she refuse saying she wasn't hungry...
After driving for another two hours, they reach Mallik Farmhouse...
Riddhima was amaze to see the beautiful view in front of her...
But she didn't show from her face that how much she love the place...
Everyone move inside to be welcome by Ramu Kaka who was the caretaker of the house...
Nandini inform him to get ready room for her, Armaan and Bi... She don't want Kaka to know about Riddhima's behavior towards Armaan...
Ramu Kaka welcome them letting them inside... He has make everything just the way Nandini always want whenever she come with Aarushi and Armaan...
Kaka ask them to get freshen up as his daughter Suman has arrange lunch for them...
'Suman betiya kaisi hai Kaka...
Bohot badi hogayi na... Maine uske shaadi ki baad dekha nehi...' Nandini said...
'Haan bohot acchi hai madam... Woh servant ki cottage main apne pati ki saat rehti hai...
Woh uski pati ki tabiyyat bohot kharab hai issiliyeh...' Kaka said...
'Haan jaati hoon Kaka...
Lekin Suman se kehna ek baar mujhe milne aaye...
Bohot saal hogayi use dekhe...' Nandini said...
'Tik hai main kehdunga...
Aap log fresh hojao, tab tak main Suman se kehke khana lagwa deta hoon...
Maine aap sabke liyeh kamre tayyar ki hai... Riddhima aur Armaan ke liyeh Armaan ki room bohot acche se tayyar ki Suman se kehke...
After all Riddhima bitiya shaadi ki baad pehli baar yaha rehne aaye hai...' Kaka said looking Riddhima who was standing with Bi...
As they enter the house, Armaan went to his room as he don't want to be around Riddhima as he feel scared of her sometimes as she used to wear black saari and dress...
So taking the opportunity, Armaan leave them to talk with Kaka...
Kaka went to tell Suman to arrange the lunch while Nandini went to her room leaving Bi to handle Riddhima who was standing without moving...
When she hears what Kaka said, she understood now she has to share room with Armaan...
Means she has to face him every day and night...
'Kiya huva beti...
Chalo main tumhe tumhara kamra dikhati hoon...' Bi said pulling her...
Bi took Riddhima to their room and saw her bag and Armaan bag was kept in a corner...
Room was big enough just the way back in Mallik...
For once, Riddhima didn't feel she has left the Mallik Mansion...
But remembering she has to share with Armaan, she move back leaving a shocked Bi...
Everyone was sitting near the dinning table to have lunch other then Riddhima...
Riddhima didn't enter the room as Armaan was there already... But when Armaan went out, she quickly take a shower and came out as she don't want to live for a second with him...
Riddhima didn't join them for lunch... She keeps roaming around the house, looking every place admiring the beauty...
Riddhima move around the house day and at night she sleep on the couch which was in the hall...
She get up early before Kaka comes knowing Nandini wouldn't like him to know that Riddhima behavior towards them...
2weeks past and Riddhima didn't try to change herself, Nandini was feeling sad to know that Riddhima stay in the hall all night...
Nandini asked Bi to open one of the guest room for Riddhima at last she wouldn't need to sleep outside in the hall...
'Nehi Nandini...
Riddhima kab tak aise waha soenge... Mujhe nehi lagti yeh tik hai...
Use tohda time doh, woh apne aap Armaan koh apnaenge...' Bi said...
Nandini was helpless as Bi wasn't agree her and neither Riddhima was changing her behavior towards Armaan...
Suddenly Nandini has to leave as she got a letter from Aarushi husband saying that they met with an accident and Aarushi had fracture her leg...
She was in need of someone as Aarushi live with her husband and day time he goes to work and there is no one to take care of Aarushi...
'Tum bilkul fikar mat karo Nandini...
Main hoon na yaha Armaan ki paas... Tum Aarushi ki aur khud ya dhyan rakhna...
Main yaha ki khabar tujhe deti rahungi...' Bi said as she come to know about Aarushi health...
Nandini didn't feel to leave but she trust Bi because Bi has been with her every moment after Karan left them...
So the very next day Nandini left back to home town leaving Riddhima and Armaan with Bi...
Riddhima move to Nandini room as she wasn't there, Bi try to talk Riddhima but she ignore her and she always be alone most of the time...
Kaka tell Riddhima to meet his daughter if she get bored but she always keep herself busy with her husband...
Once or twice in the past week, Riddhima has seen Suman and she was one of the beautiful girl she ever seen...
Fair in color with long silky shining hair... Big big eyes and maintain body, she just seems very young in age...
Suman spend 1o to 15 minutes with Riddhima as they always meet near the river which was near by the farmhouse...
Suman goes there to bring water and that two three times, Riddhima met her...
Every time she was in hurry saying she has to take care of her husband, give medicine or food...
Riddhima came to know how she got married to her husband and she was really shocked that when Suman said she married to him for her brother who was in love with her husband sister...
In their village, if a boy wants to get married to a girl, they had to give a girl to the other family if the family has boy...
So it was just kind of exchange offer and Riddhima was amaze to hear Suman compromise her life by marrying to the guy who was paralized...
Still Suman was happy and she was full of herself...
Riddhima hasn't seen her husband, but by Suman behvior and her talk Riddhima thought he must be good looking and nice one...
Its been three days after Nandini left and Riddhima was feeling bored as she hasn't meet with Suman from five days...
Riddhima always goes near the river but Suman hasn't come there...
So Riddhima thought to go and see what happen as she knows often her husband be unwell...
Riddhima reach to the servant cottage...
She knock but no one answer so after knocking for four five times, when no one answer she move inside to see it was a small place...
Little hall with kitchen attach to it... There was a small room where no door just a curtain hang down...
'Suman...' Riddhima called peeping inside the curtain to see one bed was on one side with a small table with medicine kept..
One person was on the bed hiding under the sheet and by the figure, she knows it was a guy...
Hearing Riddhima voice, he move the sheet away from his face...
Seeing the scary man, Riddhima move back to hit by Suman who just came behind her hearing someone enter...
'Riddhima...' Suman asked to see Riddhima shaking...
Seeing Suman, she left without saying anything and Suman followed by her knowing Riddhima must have seen her husband...
'Suman woh...' Riddhima didn't understand what to say...
She was short of words to know someone beautiful like Suman was marrying the horrible man who was on that bed...
Suman knows Riddhima was in shocked and she didn't like anyone to say anything to her husband...
Surely before Suman also was scared of him but as she came to know how nice he is from heart, she slowly fall in love with him...
Now everything matters to Suman was her husband not others opinion...
'Riddhima. Mujhe pata hai tum kiya soch rahi ho...
Lekin main use bohot pyar karti hoon...
Acche dikhna jaruri nehi hai... Woh kaise bhi dikhte ho, meri pati hai aur woh main use bohot pyar karti hoon...
Baahar ki khubsurat kiya kaam ka jab woh dil se acche nehi toh...
Aur woh bohot acche insaan hai... Issiliyeh aaj main use itna hadd tak pyar karti hoon...' Suman said...
Suman leave Riddhima saying all this knowing she would need the time to accept the truth...
Riddhima went back to sit the river where she usually sit whenever she wants to be away from everyone from the last few weeks...
Her mind and heart were busy trying to know what was happening...
What has happen to the Riddhima who never hate anyone, never dare to hurt anyone...
Why all of sudden she started to behave like that...
Why she was hurting Nandini and Armaan without their fault it was her parents who hide the truth from her...
Riddhima sit there thinking how her life has changed and now she was running away from the truth...
In the whole Village, it was Riddhima who people take as an example of a good daughter and now what happen...
Where is that Riddhima...
If Suman can spend her life with someone like that sick person on that bed, why can't she give a chance...
Armaan was good looking, nice person... Pure in heart...
Still now, Armaan never force himself to her and what she did...
She was doing everything to hurt him and Nandini...
She was behaving no one ever would behave with their husband...
Knowing the truth about Armaan illness, knowing she can make him right by her love and care, she ignore him... Hurt him...
Riddhima came back from her thought when she heard Bi coming calling her...
Knowing it was time to return home, She went with Bi without saying anything...
Riddhima was lost and Bi thought she wasn't liking her company...
Bi try to talk but Riddhima went to her room saying she wasn't hungry...
Whole night Riddhima couldn't sleep...
Only one thing was disturbing... What has happen to her...
Why she was trying to be bad in front of them... In front of Armaan...
He was a gem of person and why Riddhima ignore him all this days...
His illness were due to the shocked and he can be better in no time then why she didn't try...
Sun rise as the bird started to fly around singing with their beautiful voice...
Riddhima move out and get ready... She went to kitchen to see Bi was up to make breakfast before Armaan and Riddhima wake up...
Seeing Riddhima up so early, Bi was concern thinking Riddhima was ill...
'Kiya huva beti... Tum itni jaldi...' Bi asked moving towards her...
Bi has already make breakfast for them and was putting plates on tray...
Riddhima have breakfast in her room where else Armaan have his in his room...
'Bi kiya main aaj Armaan ke liyeh naashta lejaa sakti hoon...' Riddhima asked ever so softly...
Bi was shocked to hear this... She didn't know how to react and what make Riddhima change what she thinks about Armaan...
When Bi didn't say anything, giving her a smile Riddhima took the tray and went out from the kitchen...
Armaan was sleeping in his room with a innocent and cute smile on his face...
His one leg was hanging down from one side of the bed where else comforter was hiding his half body...
Riddhima came with the tray to see the mess around the room...
Everything was throw, here and there without any arrangement...
Riddhima look at Armaan who was sleeping peacefully... So without disturbing him, first Riddhima clean the mess...
After that Riddhima move to Armaan to see him sleeping like a baby without no tension...
Riddhima don't know why, for the first time she keeps looking at him with some new feeling...
Some hair weres on her forehead tickling and disturbing his sleep... Armaan frown in his sleep feeling the disturbance...
Riddhima don't know when her hand move towards his face moving the hair away to which Armaan frown replace by the smile...
Smile form in Riddhima face seeing him smiling in his sleep...
Feeling someone present, Armaan open his eyes trying to know the surrounding...
Armaan smile seeing Riddhima vision in front of him and closed his eyes trying to go back to his slumber...
But when Armaan felt the gaze were still on him, he open his eyes with a jerk sitting up on the bed...
As soon as he saw it was Riddhima who was standing and he wasn't dreaming, he hide his face on his palm...
'Maine aapke ke liyeh naashta laayi hoon...' Riddhima said moving a little away so he could come out from the bed...
Seeing Riddhima moving, Armaan came down from the bed still hiding his face and left the room like that without saying anything...
Riddhima felt sad seeing Armaan behavior but she knows, this was the starting and she has many path to go through...
