Let's give it a chance part 13
"Tell me Randhir"
Sanyukta kept forcing him .
"I couldn't help it ,it hurt me to see you struggle this much "
He spoke breaking the ice. But this time, the time wasn't right ,she was fast asleep nudging into his chest ,he sighed to himself maybe this was not the time to reveal it all as it was a fresh start to their friendship and he won't spoil it just when it started .Her body was getting cold and that is when he realised she wasn't asleep ,she had lost her consciousness .
"Damn "
he muttered under his breath and stared rubbing her hand and feet but it didn't help much , he banged the door as hard as he could but he didn't receive any help either ,he tried giving CPR but everything seemed to fail .The only method he could think of at that time was body heat transfer. But he was too hesitant to get this close to her ,her life was more important to him , he hugged her tight and rubbed her back , her body started gaining composure and slowly and steadily she opened her eyes only to find him in a compromising position with him . The cell was white and still smelled of naphthalene balls nothing like a pleasant atmosphere but still nature has its own ways .
"Are you okay?" He questioned.
"I'm still cold"
"Do you like ... I mean do you want me... Is it okay with you...?
"Shut up Randhir, enough of your blabbering , come on hug me"
Randhir wasn't the shy types but still that fear in him, ignited in him the fear of losing her again because of his another mistake , but she was back to being herself around him . She looked into his eyes and it drifted her back to the old times but like never before.
It was the same day ,when they had been locked up in her room ,by their parents, instead of being orthodox Indians they were broad minded and rather notorious . They did it on purpose and this indeed had worked out a wonderful chemistry between them.
"Randhir I'm cold ,can I please hug you?"
She had asked , the marble floor was giving them high time .
"Sure Sanyukta you can."
They had hugged each other to bring in some warmth but nothing had helped and that is when she was reminded of the extra blankets she had on the upper shelf of her almirah .
"Randhir I have 2 blankets in my almirah"
"Oh! now you remember"
"Don't mock ,It had completely skipped out of my mind"
"Where is it ?"
"On the top shelf." She had said with an innocent look on her face .
"And how are we supposed to get it out , its over the top and both of us don't have the height of a model"
"Can you lift me up and I will get them , what say?"
"That sounds like a plan ."
"It is a plan, now get up and pick me up"
He had lifted her up and she had held those quilts super tight but the quilts were too heavy for them to maintain balance and this landed them straight on the floor , Randhir got his back knocked off in between .
"My back he shouted"
"Shit " she muttered
"I have an ointment " she continued her bickering and got him the ointment.
"Remove your shirt ,I'll apply it "
"No , it's okay I will do it"
"Shut up and let me do it " she was the stubborn one he had heard ,his mother say to him once ,so he didn't argue much and lifted up his shirt and let her apply the ointment .
"Enjoying the view" mocked Randhir
"In your dreams Mr. Future Husband"
She mocked back.
She massaged his back and in no time his back was back to normal.
"Okay you can use that blanket and I will use this one "
Randhir said on an instant.
"No we can't do that" she almost shouted.
"Because the floor is cold and we need to spread one sheet and wrap the other one around us"
"You have got a point".
The door opened with a jolt and they were rescued more from their past than the current scenario.
" Are you two okay? "
The air hostess literally jumped on Randhir and Sanyukta yet again frowned , she could do if more often now , now that they were back to being friends or maybe there was more to it.
"We are okay" he replied literally pushing the air hostess away.
"We are really sorry for the inconvenience " said the air hostess in an over accented tone.
"It's okay " replied Randhir and both came back to their seats followed by the air hostess.
"Can I get you two something?"
"Yes two glasses of water and two sandwiches with extra cheese."
"Anything else Sir?"
"Do one thing get glucose instead of mineral water" bugged in Sanyukta.
"Sure ma'am"
As soon as the air hostess left Randhir thanked Sanyukta under his breath and sunk deep into his seat . Sanyukta laughed hard at this gesture of his and poked him in his stomach, to which Randhir made a weird face. Anyone in the plane could say they were so in love simply children trapped in adult bodies.
They behaved this immature in front of each other like it is said you can be yourself in front of the one but they were yet to figure it out that they never moved on , they were standing at the same place , where they were an year and a month back.
The plane landed back and there was a sigh of relief on everyone's face as they had a safe journey on a plane with such technical errors .
They picked up their luggage and stepped out of the airport, and breathed in the fresh air, this air had something in it , it wasn't as clean as the air in New York but it had that warmth , a feeling of it being their own.
There was a hustle bustle on the roads , that Delhi traffic , even after that odd even rule , Delhi never seems to amuse anyone , the roads are always clogged, people shouting out loud , taxi's and auto rickshaws parked in long lines to escort the passengers and not to forget the street food vendors and the aroma of their mouth watering delicacies , the only thing which had changed was they were maintaining hygiene now . Sanyukta couldn't stop her urge to grab the steamed dumplings with Mayo dip and so was with Randhir , they had missed the essence of this food in this one year a lot and they gobbled down two plates each and then all they couldn't do was walk their stomach hurt like anything.
"I can't walk Randhir " complained Sanyukta.
"Even I can't"
"What do we do now"
"Let's hire a taxi and head home."
"No, I don't want to get into a taxi"
"Please Randhir try to understand" she almost pleaded which made Randhir suspicious.
"What happened Sanyukta?"
"I don't travel in taxi's"
"Why don't you?"
He sensed her uneasiness and held her by shoulder .
"I was molested by a taxi driver once."
His grip on her shoulder became more tight with every word of hers , like he won't ever let her go and won't let any trouble reach her.
" Did he do u some wrong?"
"No, he couldn't do much , I had this pepper spray in my pocket."
She showed him the spray . Why is it that girls need things like this to protect themselves from all the pervert boys out there , if lesbians can control themselves seeing girls in short skirts why can't boys. He was angry on this fact , these things angered him and this was his girl who had suffered it all , still he was proud of her, she was not the scared one rather she confessed everything to him.
"Do you remember his face?"
"No , Randhir I was in my teens and it hurt , a lot when I still get goose bumps when I think about it"
" You don't have to think about it."
"It gives me strength Randhir"
"I'm proud of you Sanyu"
He said hugging her tight and breathing in the floral smell from her hair.
"We will fight this fear of yours, come" he said dragging her to the nearby cab and never let go of her hand...
To be continued.
