PART 23
He opened the door quietly to find the entire lounge as well as the rooms dark... he switched on the lights of the lounge and checked the kitchen and balcony and then moved to sharon's room... he switche don't eh light but Sharon was not there... He was already worried and scared and decided to check the washroom.. as he knocked the washroom he found it open...he pushed open the door and froze in his place as he saw the scene in front of him..
Sharon was sitting there under the shower wearing her office clothes with her face buried in her knees , completely soaked with water and sobbing uncontrollably...
Without thinking for a second he rushed inside and turned the shower off at once... He knelt beside Sharon not at all caring about the wet floor... He leaned forward trying to make Sharon look at him...
"Sharon... kya hua??? Stop crying ... look at me Sharon... please..." He tried to cup her face removing her wet locks from her face... Sharon looked up from her knees at him...
"maine bola tha na tumhe ... Mai aisi hi hoon... kabhi bhi garbar kar deti hoon... tum handle nahi kar paoge..." She sobbed and hiccupped and then continued... "mai kuch galat bol dungi... Kharab behave karungi... aaj wohi hua... and see tum chale gaye..." she closed her eyes crying like a kid...
Swayam kept her head on his chest hugging her tightly as his shirt and coat also got wet but he didn't care at all...
"sshhh... Stop crying... tum bilkul pagal ho pata hai tumhe????mad woman..." He smiled as Sharon burried her face more into his neck and cried...
"ab chalo...utho... bahar chalo..." Swayam stood up and helped her stand and then held her tightly in his arms as they went outside to her room... Swayam then went back to the washroom to take a towel and came back to the room ...
"chalo dry yourself... and change your clothes...mai bahar wait karta hoon..." swayam handed her the towel and went out of the room closing the door behind him... after sometime as he guessed Sharon must have been done with her changing but won't come out on her own he decided to knock...
"ho gaya Sharon?? can I come???" he asked...
"haa..." he heard Sharon whisper... just because he was concentrating he could listen to her...
He came inside to see Sharon sitting on the bed with her legs folded sulking like a child... her cheeks and nose had turned red due to sniffing... swayam smiled and sat beside her...
"dekhoge nahi meri taraf???" he asked as Sharon nodded in a no like a kid...
"kyun???" swayam further asked...
" kyunki tum jana chahte ho na meri life se... so yaha kyun aye ho.. chale jao.. jaha man karta hai..." Sharon turned her face away... Swayam bit his cheeks to stop himself from laughing... he then went closer to her sitting beside her and put his left around her shoulder pulling her close to him... Sharon started struggling but eventually gave in as swayam forced her to rest her head on his shoulder...
"dekho...its very simple... Ekbar tumne mujhe apni life mein jagah de diya to mai to bhai kahi nahi jane wala... Agar tum mujhe force bhi karo na to leave you and go tab bhi nahi jaunga... I'll stay here.. with you always..." He kept his head on her head... Sharon immediately pulled away startling swayam...
"how dare you??? Office mein kya bol rahe the???? Cabin mein knock karne ane ko??? Kyun??? Kyun karu mai knock???? Kya karte ho tum andar???? And tumhe sir bolun??? In your dreams..." she started hitting him hard and swayam tried to duck away...
"array meine wo tumhe pareshan karne ke liye bola.. tum hi to sir bolte the... mai kya karu????" he frowned rubbing his arms where Sharon has punched hard...
"accha leave sir aside... cabin kyun knock karu??? Andar kya karte ho tum????" she frowned in suspicion as swayam was taken aback...
"kya karta hoon matlab??? Kaam???" he said in confusion moving away from Sharon fearing that she might hit him again...
"agar kaam karte ho to knock karne kyun bola????" she sat up on her knees...
"array maine bola na to irritate you..." swayam could sense that he was in trouble...
"mai nahi manti...tumhara laptop kaha hai??? mujhe tumhara internet history check karni hai..." she ordered him...
"kya bol rahi ho??? Tum shak kar rahe ho mujhpe???" swayam tried one last time so that she changes her mind...
"haa kar rahi hoon... kaha hai laptop????" she raised her eyes...
"neeche car mein..." Swayam knew it was pointless fighting with her...
"abhi lao... abhi... abhiii..." She screamed at him and quickly brought the laptop from his car and handed it to her...
"wifi se connect karo..." Sharon ordered him sitting on the bed as swayam opened the laptop...
"password kya hai????" he asked...
"Winnie the pooh..." She replied and swayam face palmed...
Swayam opened his browser history and showed it to her... Sharon checked it closely and then smiled at him like a naughty child...
"got your peace????" swayam said in irritation... Sharon immediately hugged her forearm keeping her head on his shoulder...
"mujhe pata tha... mai bhi tumhe pareshan kar r ahi thi... I know tum sirf cricket dekhte ho..." She winked at him and swayam couldn't help but smile...
"okay... chalo bahar chalte hai.. for dinner..." Swayam stood up and held sharon's hand intending to pull her up from the bed...
"aise????" she pointed at his half drenched clothes and her own sweatshirt and tracks...
Swayam realized that they can't go out like that...
"okay I have an idea... abhi kitna baj raha hai????" he looked at his watch to find it showing 8 o clock...
"chalo 8... tum ready ho jayo.. in the meantime maio ghar jata hoon.. ready hoke I'll pick you up at 9... what say????" he asked her...
"I say... that my swayam is pretty intelligent... thik hai tum jao... I'll be ready for our dat..." she stopped midway realizing she was going to say "date" and soon corrected... " for our dinner..." And looked away... Swayam smirked as he saw her turn pink but didn't tease her further...
"yeah.. dinner... so I hr hai tumhare paas... I'll be back..." with that he kissed her cheeks and rushed to his home...
Sharon opened her cupboard scanning through the clothes trying to decide what to wear... normally she always wears jeans and t shirts but today she wanted something else... so she picked a blue floral A-line dress... She quickly changed into it and checked herself in the mirror... it was reaching till her knees and she looked pretty cute in it... She blow dried her hair which was wet from the shower and kept it open falling over her shoulder... she looked pretty satisfied and was about to go to the lounge to wait for swayam when she turned back and went to the mirror... she picked up a kohl pencil from her box and kept fidgeting with it... right from the childhood she was not at all fussy about clothes and make up... she even prefers to go out everyday without applying kohl and she knew that she is never gonna change... right from the childhood she knew she will stay like this and if someone has to come in her life he has to accept her the way she is... but after swayam , she has changed... not that she is fussy about looking good all the time but she wants to look special for him... she wants him to look at her like she is the most beautiful girl... without a second thought she applied the kohl in her eyes and some gloss on her lips and was ready for swayam...
After sometime she heard the bell ring... she took her sling bag across her shoulder and opened the door with a huge grin... as expected swayam was standing there ...
As he saw Sharon his smile grew wider... he scanned her from her toes till her eyes and locked his gaze with hers...
"khoobsoorat..." he said in a trance... Sharon chuckled listening to him... he himself was looking cute with unkempt hair falling on his forehead wearing a grey t shirt and blue shaded jeans...
"ho gaya??? Dekhna???" she asked him making him come out of the trance...
"chale..." Swayam locked the door and they moved out...
Soon they reached the restaurant... swayam knew Sharon loved Chinese and thus took her to a Chinese restaurant...
Swayam parked the car and they walked in.. it was an open roofed restaurant beside the swimming pool dimly lit and soft music playing in the background... ideal for any normal couple going for a date...
Swayam pulled out the chair for Sharon and after she sat he sat opposite her... Sharon ordered for them both and as they waited for their dinner to come , they chatted about random things... Sharon suddenly got conscious about the surrounding as a seductive song started playing in the background...
She looked around to find that in all the surrounding tables the couples were getting cozy and she made face turning towards swayam...
" aise mat dekho... koi farak nahi parne wala unko even if you make faces... ignore...and just relax okay????" he blinked his eyes in assurance...
"I am relaxed... its just that... forget it..." Sharon diverted the topic as they once again started chatting merrily...
They had their dinner chatting and joking with each other... swayam was finished and Sharon was busy finishing her ice cream when swayam took his wallet out and kept the credit card on the table to give it to the waiter as he kept the bill on the table... Sharon frowned seeing him... she opened the bill card and saw the amount and then quickly took his card away from the table making swayam shocked...
"kya hua????" swayam asked her as she opened her bag royally ignoring his question... she took out some notes and kept it inside the bill card still not giving him the card back...
"what the hell Sharon.." swayam started understanding what she was upto...
"what???" she looked at him casually... " card tumhe baad mil jayega.. we will pay in cash..."
"dekho... chup chap ye notes wapis rakho n give my card back..." he said getting serious...
"kyun?? We will share the bill..." Sharon smirked at him...
"kabhi nahi... I am warning you Sharon..." swayam glared at her...
"ohhoo.. I am so scared swayam... look I don't believe in this guys should pay the bill fanda...and agar tum meri baat nahi mani... to this is the last time I am coming with you..." Sharon frowned and turned away... swayam sighed in irritation and kept the rest of the cash and stood up...
"chalo..." He didn't say anything else and started walking away... Sharon had to literally run to keep pace with him... as he reached the parking lot he clicked opened the lock of the car and was about to got the driver seat Sharon held his hands...
"fir se gussa ho????" she asked like a kid...
"nahi..." he looked away...
"please swayam... its just that... mera manna hai hare k rishte mein larka and larki dono ki responsibility equal hai... so both of us will work hard... we will work on our relationship... we will both pay bills... and spoil each other..." She hugged his arms... swayam couldn't hold back his smile with the last line... He looked at her and pulled her into his arms... the parking lot was completely empty so they were not uncomfortable...
"so ye baat hai... bol deta yaar????" swayam and Sharon heard a voice and pulled out of each other turning back to the direction of the sound... Sharon and swayam both were shocked to see the person in front of them... it was the same guy who misbehaved with Sharon in the shimla conference...
Swayam gritted his teeth and was about to go forward to hit him again but Sharon held him back... The guy laughed seeing Sharon holding swayam's hand...
"so ye baat hai... so for her post in your office she gives you something else too..." he looked at swayam as Sharon held swayam's hand tightly to keep him in control...
"pehele bold eta yaar... hum dono like share kar lete profit..." Swayam was about to move ahead again but was stopped by Sharon... she looked into his eyes assuring him to stay calm... Then she left her hands and moved towards the guy... She stood in front of him and slapped him hard across his face...
"this is for thinking that office mein I am there not because of my talent and because of something cheap..." As the guy revived from the shock of the first slap he felt sharon's hand burning his cheeks for a second slap...
"and ye mere aur swayam ke beech mein jo hai uske bare mein galat sochne k liye... hum dono k beech mein jo hai wo aap jaise log kabhi nahi samjhenge..." With that turned around and went towards swayama nd smiled at him...
"chalein???" she smiled at him... swayams miled back and opened the door of the passenger seat for her...
*************
Swayam and Sharon were sitting on the sand facing the sea as Sharon kept eating her gola... The waves came and touched there bare feet as their shoes were kept on the sand...
"I am proud of you..." Swayam said out of the blue...
"hmm???" she asked licking the gola...
"accha laga dekh ke that you are standing up for yourself... Shimla mein I was angry at you because tumne use bina kuch bole jane diya tha... you waited for me to come and say something..." He said with an intent look...
"mai nahi jati to tum uska face thor dete..." Sharon winked at him... swayam smiled and looked ahead at he sea... Sharon kept her head on his shoulder following his gaze to the starry horizon...
