PART 3:-
"What the hell Angad? How'd you enter?"
He smiled. "Don't you remember the window I always use to sneak into from?"
Argh… this man will never let her forget her past or will her? That JERK!
"Yeah… right. Now if you may please exit this house and never turn around and look at here again. I will reject the proposal as soon as everything is possible."
"uh-uh, sweetie. That's not what I'm here for."
"Stop with the pretences. Please. And yeah… never, I mean never call me sweetie ever again. You lost that privilege a loooong time ago. How about we talk when you're ready to talk straight up and not acting all sweet, ok? Now, buh-bye." She said the words with attitude that got on Angad's nerves. What happened to the Kripa he knew? The Kripa he knew was a sweet little angel who always had her anger and rudeness in check. What's happened to her? Before she could run away, he held her back by holding her shoulder as he knew if he touched her hand she'd be even more mad. God! Where did all this anger come from?
"Shut up, and get into my car. I don't need your attitude right now."
"First of all, I'm not going to shut up. Second of all, I'm not the one with the attitude, you are. Why are you doing all this? Just get to the flippin' point instead of acting like my boyfriend." She said with a unusual quietness and emotionless. He was worried about her.
"Look, Kripa. How about we not fight right now we need to get to the hospital. If not for me then at least for my grandfather. Please, Kripa?"
Ohhh… so that's what he's here for. If it weren't for his grand father she would never had sat in his car. All he cared about was himself and his family. Never her or her family. How arrogant! She couldn't believe that she had chosen him of all people to be her boyfriend. He didn't even deserve to be the dirt of her feet! But what was his grand father's fault in all this? Oh, yeah. He and his son are the one's forcing him to get married to me. But still… Sick! How can I be so sick?
Getting disgusted of herself for thinking like that she just sat down in the car. She turned her face away from his and looked out the window. She didn't say a whole word the ride there and even after reaching there. She refused to look at his idiotic face. She was led into his room and left there at the door, alone. Shit, what was she suppose to say? This sucks. She's in a hospital and in Angad's grandfather's room, alone. Oh god! She didn't want to be a jinx. She looked at him. He was a handsome looking old man. She smiled. She saw him sleeping peacefully and snoring like a lion. She smiled again. He had the same traits Angad had. Just when she thought she could leave the room without him noticing she heard his deep, husky voice and not forgetting the warmness she felt, "Hey there, sweetheart? Trying to escape?"
She turned around with a guilty smile and laughed nervously. He smiled.
"So.."
"So….."
"So………"
"So………….."
"Ok now, cut it out." He said a little irritated.
"Sorry…"
"No, darling. Don't be sorry. I should be sorry. The drugs they're putting me on is driving me crazy." He laughed and so did she.
"Now to cut to the chase, What's happening between you and Angad?"
Ah… shit, what am I suppose to say? "Ahh… nothing…"
"If really nothings up then what are you doing in the pictures with Angad that he looks at every night, cries and drinks like there's nothing more in life to do."
Wait, what? I don't think I heard him right?
"You guys have a past, don't you?"
"Ahh… no.." He gave her a scrutinizing look. "Oh, what the hell! Yeah, we did." What was wrong with her? She didn't know why but things just flowed out of her mouth without her thinking twice. She told him everything. Everything, meant everything except for the late night encounter, obviously.
"I knew it! It's all Dilip's fault."
"Dilip uncle? No… Dilip uncle didn't do anything. It's Angad who played with my feelings. Dilip uncle didn't do anything."
"No. This is all Dilip's fault. Well, yes… Dilip did all of it unintentionally but still…"
"What? Da- Oh, sorry. I- can I call you dadu?" She twisted her lips. He smiled. "Of course you can."
She smiled victoriously. "Ok, DADU. What did Dilip uncle do?"
"Dilip probably forced Angad to propose to Mishti as it was his dream from childhood. He obviously didn't know Angad had a girlfriend. And yes, Angad was wrong to break up with you for the property and money but still, I think he really loves you. I know him very well. He's a rich, spoilt brat. Idiot! He doesn't know that his life lives in you." A tear prickled down her cheek in between of her smile. He loves me… he loves me… Arjun's last words echoed in her mind.
********
It had been more than an hour since she'd gone in. What the hell was she doing in there? He sat in the hospital chair outside the room, linking and unlinking her fingers and then biting his nails. He was getting nervous.
