Raina...Pyaar Ka Dard Hai... Part 8/Page 21 - 04/03/16 - Page 7

Part 5

Naveen enjoy chatting with his favourite six cadets, once they left. Naveen freshen up and made his way toward the mess. He greets Suriji and Suriji gave him coffee. Both of them start talking about the olden days.

Suriji: Putar, kya tumhen yaad hai, how you and Rajveer Putar would come rushing over here whenever you got punished by Major Nair and always prove him wrong by stuffing your mouth with food. Those were the days.

Naveen: Yup! And how you would protect us from any punishment. Those where the day of our mischief and now we are completely given ourselves to our country. And I can see same dedication and determination for their country in those six cadets (six cadets meaning, Ali, Yudi, Pooja, Huda, Aditya and Alekh). I have full faith on them.

Suriji: Why wouldn't they? When they got best professor guiding them into success. Whenever I see them together, they remind me of my three favourite cadets and now they are well settle in professional life. I am proud of them and where ever Gunny is. I am sure he is doing fine. I truly miss him and three of your masti. Somewhere I wish that Gunny also get posted here and than your group would be complete. Raj and you are already here. Only Gunny is missing.

10hrs 57min

Journey to Ambala was only 2hrs 57min by train. Reminding 8hrs token them to reach KMA ( Kanchanjunga Military Academy). On the way, toward academy, Rajveer had picked up his jeep and drove him and his wife toward their destination. Once they reached outside the boundaries of KMA. It brought satisfaction on Rajveer's face. He couldn't hold onto his excitement and shouted inside his mind "Finally. I am here. Its great to be back home. I miss this place, my friends and my favourite cadets too. It will always be apart of my life. I started my career from here and now its my home too" he look over passenger side and saw his wife sleeping peacefully, leaning backwards. Flocks of hair blowing onto her face because of the wind. He gently lean toward her and whispered in her ear "Naina, please wake up. We have reach our destination" Naina got up and stare at her husband for sometime than looked around her surrounding, "where are we? Is this our destination" she asked him in her sleepy voice. He replied, "Yes Naina, its our destination. Remember I told you about my posting during the journey over here. Remember" Naina nod her head in agreement and kept on listening to her husband "Almost lights are gonna go out soon and I have only few minutes before I can report to Brigadier Chandok otherwise its going to happen tomorrow and I have early morning class with my second year cadets. Once I meet Brigadier Chandok and let him know about our arrival than we could proceed to our quarter and from there we could go out for dinner. Is that alright with you?" Naina just agreed with him. Both of them got out of the jeep and gathered their belonging and entered inside Kanchanjunga Military Academy.

1hr 35min Later

I am standing outside Brigadier Chandok's cabin. My husband has gone inside to meet him and report about our arrival. He told me clearly, "Naina, I am going inside. It won't take too long. I just have to report to him about our arrival. Please wait outside here and please don't go anywhere. Its not safe wandering around here when people don't know much about you. I don't want you to get into any trouble" "I'll be fine! Please don't worry about me. I'll wait for you...right outside here" I assured him.

I felt guilty keeping Naina waiting for me. I thought reporting to Brigadier Chandok wouldn't take long and than I could take Naina to our quarter. I also have to introduce her to my best pal Naveen. Brigadier kept on going and going about the changes are going to be applying soon and two more faculty members are joining them. "So young lad, where is your wife? Aren't you going to introduce me to her? I need to be assure that she isn't going to be distraction for you and your dedication toward your country otherwise there are some who changes after marriage. I hope you aren't one of them" indirectly I understood his meaning. I gave him assuring smile, "Sir, nothing can change my priority toward my nation and I know how to keep balance between personal and professional life too." I replied back to him and smile at him. We both exit out of his cabin "Sir, meet my wife Naina" Naina stood up greeting us "and Naina meet Brigadier Chandok" Naina shock me by touching BC's feet. For moment I thought Brigadier going to burst his anger on my wife, but he surprise me by blessing her. Its a miracle hearing him blessing her, "god bless you my child. Its great pleasure meeting you, Mrs. Shekhawat. Please make yourself comfortable over here. Its a different environment compared to where you came from. And most important factor, please avoid breaking any rules here. I love to maintain my disciplines over here. Please be aware of them and your husband will definitely inform you about or rules and disciplines. He has great experience of them." I heard my wife say, "I completely agree. I belong to different environment while growing up, but its natural for girl to leave behind her home. And now this place is my home, where my husband lives. I don't have any problem adjusting into different environment because my brother told me... situation are never going to be same... and sometime you have to act accordingly to the situation." I am surprise hearing her words. They are so similar to Naveen's thought.

Raj sighs!

"Not again. I am reconnecting two different topics together. I agree me and Naveen's sister got married same time, but its doesn't mean I am married to Naveen's sister." Battle has began in my heart and mind. I compose myself before opening my quarter...oops...its our quarter now. I step inside followed by Naina. I close the door behind her and showed her the place without making any noise. I assume that Naveen must have retire to bed early. Afterwards, we enter inside our room and showed her where everything is located in the room. Also asked her to fresh up as well and he'll fresh up using the bathroom outside their room in the common living room area.

Naina sighed after he left the room. She took out her favourite casual wear from her bag. It gave her classy, teenage look. She came out of the washroom wearing her jeans in legging style and long grey t-shirt and now waiting for her husband.

Raj came inside their room and saw Naina dressed in her casual. She looked much better in them compared to her Indian wear. He doesn't judge anyone by their clothing long as they don't break his trust. He goes toward Naina "ready to go" he asked her. "Yup, I am ready to go" Raj escort Naina out of their quarter and drove his jeep toward nearest restaurant.

Next day,

Academy bell rang exactly at five. Many cadets groan and complained while getting themselves ready for the day, but Captain Naveen already up and ready for his morning jog.

Raj also got up and ready for his morning jog. He saw Naina sleeping peacefully and left note beside her, if she got up and looked for him. He left his room and greets Naveen from behind. Both friend share warm, brotherly hug and start their morning jog. During their jog, they talk about the changes taking place in the academy. Meanwhile Naina woke up and searched for her husband finding his side empty on the bed. She found the not written by her husband and understood he's gone for his morning jog. Naina got out of bed and took her causal wear inside the washroom. She complete her daily routine before stepping outside their room. She looked around the place, observing the areas she couldn't last night. She only had glimpse of the place and now she's totally in love with her home and the interior inside her home. Yup, its her home now. She told herself. While observing her home, she made her way toward the kitchen and start looking for ingredients. She found everything empty. Only tea bags and coffee powder. She made list of items she need to purchase today, if her husband got the time and slowly set up her kitchen.

"Guys, we are in our second year than why do we have to get up early and stand in formation of lines of four" Yudi complain to his fellow cadets. Alekh shook his head and mumble to himself, "bole toh, ek din be nahi hua aur uski naatakeey shuroo hua." Moment Major Nair step up, everything become quiet. They listen to him giving out instruction. Some groan in frustration and some following as their duty. Six of them start their laps.

After completing their morning jog, they head toward their quarter. On their way, they met Dr. Shalini. She gave Rajveer friendly hug and welcome him back. She asked him about his vacation and came to know from Naveen that "their Veer got married" Shalini gasp in shock than congrats him. She asked Rajveer about his wife and where she is. Raj gave Naveen "I wanna kill you look" before answering Shalini's question patiently regarding his marriage and some about his wife. He got extremely lucky when Shalini left them stating a emergency came up. "First time, I am thankful for the emergency, otherwise Dr. Shalini would never stop her questions until she's satisfied." His inner thoughts told him. He could sense his pal laughing his head off. Raj ran behind Naveen. Both of them are puffing outside their quarter. They step inside their quarter after opening it. Raj stood frozen looking at his wifey, dress in her casual wear. It gave her femininity exploitable define. He stood observing her while Naveen stood frozen on the spot. Many things were playing inside his mind and couldn't believe his Chashni stood in front of him. He completely forgotten everything at the moment and feeling his Chashni in his arm. His quarter echoed in her crying sound.

Naina heard the door opening of her home. She saw her husband entering inside with someone else and that person shocked her. She stood up, looking directly at that person. Her eyes got watery. She couldn't believe her destiny. She pinched herself. She gasp hearing her name escape from that person. Her ears cried listening to her name. She forgot everything and rushed into that person's arm. Her cries kept on reminding her of her anger, but she couldn't even be angry with him or stop loving him. He's her world and always be her world "I love you, Avi Bhai" her unclear words brought Rajveer out of his daze. Raj stood frozen looking at his pal clutching onto his wife.
