Part XVII: The Unknown One
Time flew with Arnav and Kushi sending each other mails. When Kushi felt low Arnav would cheer her up and when Arnav's feet flattered Kushi would lift him up. Arnav dint know that his Pari was the one to bring light to his gloomy life. He thought it was Lavanya only thought he did at time doubt it. Kushi was happy writing to Arnav like Lavanya. Every day she would discuss all this with Lavanya giving her dreamy looks which made La cluck. It was nearly 9 months now. Arnav had finished his 10th board exams with good marks and well into his 11th standard and Kushi was into her 7th standard with them being 16 and 12 years now.
Anjali still taunted Arnav whenever she got the chance, thought it was very less now. But Arnav noted that she was drawn back. She dint mingle too much with Akash also. Thought she was not so spiteful nowadays but still he could feel her dislike towards him always.
Arnav was really popular in his school and Akash was his shadow. Arnav played football and was the star player. Girls seemed to be attracted by him but he seemed oblivious of all this attention. His whole day went off waiting for the one hour chat that he did with Lavanya [Kushi] in the night. He studied well and was put into martial arts class by his mama ji. It was there every morning at 5:30 and also on weekends. He loved this class a lot as it helped him to concentrate his extra energy.
Arnav smiled as he entered the quiet house after school. He sighed. It has always been like this. The house was so quiet even though there were 3 children here. But back in Sheesh Mahal the house used to be so pleasant with laughter and happiness even though it had only Pari and him there. He thought but then stopped it. He dint know why he couldn't stop himself from thinking of her again and again. He thought of her every day. He just couldn't stop himself. He was abt to go into his room when he heard giggling sound in Anjali's room. He stepped back to see what was up. There Anjali was standing with a book in her hand and reading something aloud that was making her friends squeal in laughter.
Oh why god why?? She cried in a fake male voice
Why did it have to be me? She cried again faking it as she wiped a non-existent tear off her cheek
I hate it here. I'm so lonely.. She cried in a winey voice that made her friends burst into laughter again
Oh bauji.. she started again. I miss you. Why did you leave me? she cried again holding her palm on her heart, completely faking it.
That is when Arnav saw the book more closely. It was his. The book was the one he had written his misery into before he discussed it with Lavanya [Kushi]. His eyes widened with horror as he understood why the girls were laughing. They were laughing at him, at his misery. Tears of anger stung his eyes. He saw Anjali's eyes fall on him and widen for a minute before she smirked and started teasing his writing again.
Arnav felt anger bubble in him. He marched towards Anjali and pulled his book back and pushed her away making her fall on the ground. The whole room got quiet as he glared at the girls who were laughing just a minute ago. He walked out of the room feeling humiliated and betrayed.
After one hour
Someone banged his door making Arnav get up. He had cried and slept off. He looked at the time and it was 7pm. He had faced Anjali 2 hours before. He wondered who it was as he opened the door only to find a furious mama standing there.
Arnav come outside. Your Nani is waiting. Mama Ji said as he stormed out of the place. He followed him not knowing what was going on
How could you Arnav? Came the angry voice of his Nani who was standing there with her arms crossed on her chest glaring at him
Arnav frowned deeply not knowing what was going on.
Huh Nani?? He asked softly
How could you hit your sister?? Bellowed an impatient Mama Ji who, at that moment was marching towards him furiously.
What?? Arnav practically screamed...
Everyone glared at him now. And he suddenly felt embarrassed and guilty for something he had not done.
Speak boy yelled Mama Ji. His face going red with angry
Suniye. Let him sit. Don't shout at him. He is scared said Mami ji coming to his rescue which he was grateful.
His eyes met Anjali's who was sitting in the couch with an innocent face. As soon as she saw him, she smirked and hid it before anyone saw her.
Oh now I know mumbled Arnav as he understood what was going on.
I dint hit her. He spoke a bit loudly. She was humiliating me in front of her friends so I just stopped her and she fell. Arnav said glaring at her
No Nani. He came and pu...but she was stopped
I did not push her. I don't think she is worth my effort of doing something. Yelled Arnav getting angry for being blamed alone
Shut up bellowed Nani. Her angry eyes were splitting fire and if.
I am sick and tired of all this. You both are behaving like a bunch of 4 year olds she yelled, making them both quiet.
Anjali I want you to stop all this. Accept him as and how he is. Nani ji order making Anjali glare at a very confused Arnav.
No. Anjali cried out. Tears of anger fell from her eyes. I will not accept the boy who was responsible for my sorrow. She cried out as she roughly wiped the tears from her eyes.
I will never accept him so please put me in the hostel away from him. Every time I see him I feel all my wounds opening up.
Anjali... Nani tried to get to her
No Nani. I have decided. Because of his father my mother left me and because of him you people leave me. She yelled as she glared at Arnav with hatefull eyes.
Arnav just had enough of all this.
Shut up. I will not take it anymore. Don't you dare take my parents name from your mouth. He shouted as he moved a bit close to her. Mami quickly grabbed his hand fearing that he would hit her.
Ha your parent? What do you think I am to you? Tell me? You seemed to be missing something. Anjali asked him with accusing eyes.
Do you remember that I call your Nani as Nani and your Mama Mami same. But Nani has only 2 children. One son and one daughter. So if you are her daughter's son then who am i? Anjali asked as she smirked with a weird glint in her eyes.
Arnav stood confused. He did wonder why Anjali also called them so?
Let me tell you. Anjali spoke
Enough Anjali. Nani stopped her.
No no Nani. Your grandson wants to know... Anjali smirked heartlessly
Let me tell you a story.
Once there lived a princess. She loved a poor gardener's son. But her father dint like this and forcefully married her off to another prince. After marriage she got pregnant. She came back to her house. While she was here she met with her boyfriend and her old feelings were awakened. She secretly spent time with him while she was here. After the birth of her daughter she left this house and went back to her husband's place. She had made plans with her boyfriend before she left. one day in the middle of the night she ran away with him leaving the small girl with her husband. Her husband searched here and there for her and on not finding her he took the child and threw her to her parents' house saying that she was not his child at all. Her wife was a w***e and this child was a result of that. He refused to give the daughter his name and made her a b*****d. The daughter grew up and all through her life she heard people talked abt her behind her back. One day her Nani brings home her step brother. She says her mother ran off with her love and married and got another child. She is expected to love him. How will she? Yelled Anjali as tears ran down her eyes. How can anyone expect her to love him when he and his parent were responsible for her being a b****d. She cried as Mami when and hugged her.
Now you tell me. Do you know who I am? She cried out
Arnav stood still as wheels in his mind began to work.
If you still don't get it, in this story, I am that child, princess was your mother and her boyfriend was your father. I hope you can figure out the rest saying Anjali left the place crying badly.
Arnav stood frozen on his spot. He heard others talk but nothing entered his mind. He quietly turned around and moved into his room. He was deeply hurt by all this. He again felt very alone. He just wished someone would hug him and let him cry. Pari, his heart murmured. He knew he wanted her to come and hug him. He knew if she did all his worries and hurt will go. But did he have the courage to go to her? Did he have the right to go and ask her support? No he dint. He dint deserve it also. Moreover it has been more than one year, she might have got another servant. Why would she want him? No one wanted him. Everyone just things him as a servant boy. First he was one to Pari then now he is one in this house. His tender mind was fill with betrayal and hurt. He felt very bad that his father had never told him abt Anjali.
He climbed on his bed and lay down. Anjali's words revolved around his head. He felt so many emotions bombard into him. He felt angry on his parents guilty on himself, helplessness as he couldn't do anything and sympathy on Anjali. How could his mother do this? Why dint they take Anjali with them? What was their reason? He dint know abt this. But he couldn't bear the fact that his parent left a small baby alone and moved on with their life. His image of his father suddenly looked very small to him presently.
