Part 21

The car was very silent. Karan stared at the road and drove. Arohi was looking ahead too, but her mind was in another world. So many emotions in one single day! Since when had her life become so dramatic???

The answer was simple. Since Arjun Singhania came in her life.

As she thought back, she started gritting her teeth, cursing Arjun in her mind for disturbing her perfectly perfect life and turning it upside down. Ever since she had met him, in that club, losing herself in the sweet tune of his bansuri, she had never been the same again. It seemed like years ago, and felt like they both had come a long way. First it had been just them, then there was gauri as a link between them, later they realised that their family too shared a history and now poor Karan was also sucked up in to it.

To anyone hearing this, it will seem like something that was 'meant to be'. Only she knew how much they both had tried to keep away or push each other out of their lives and failed. Again and again.

She stole a glance at Karan who was looking straight ahead, his face blank, driving at a comfortable speed. Nowhere from his body language could someone make out that they had an eventful evening, till a few minutes back. She should probably stop staring at him, her head had started to spin again.

Karan was not so calm as Arohi made him out to be. He had already been a silent person and now whatever had happened had made him completely speechless. He chose to keep his feelings to himself and ponder over them when he was home. Right now he needed to drop Arohi so that he can call it a night asap.

Rashi and Dadi were sitting in the living room. One was praying with her beads and the other was reading a magazine, her foot tapping a rhythm on the floor. But both had their minds on the front door. Waiting for it to open and Arjun to walk in.

Dadi had wasted no time in telling Rashi about the information that Raj gave her, thus explaining Arjuns disappearance from office. Rashi had felt a bit better, knowing that it had affected Arjun. They both had their fingers crossed, hoping that Arjun must have reacted in a way to express his love for Arohi and probably she must have reciprocated his feelings.

The human mind is a weird thing. It can think anything, go to any lengths, even imagine absurd reality. But one thing that it always lives on, is hope. No matter how bad the situation or how scarred the history, hope is something that helps to keep it going. Without hope, the mind will slowly lose its control on itself and eventually die a slow painful death. Even in a hopeless situation, there is always a teeny tiny corner in the mind, which is secretly hoping for a miracle.

Knowing that they were wishing about two people, who were as similar as chalk and cheese, who had a rosy history like tom and jerry, and who were as understanding as napolean and hitler, still these two women continued to 'hope' that there was a lovers reunion and diabetes-inducing extra sweet confessions. It was gods turn to shake his head at the naivety of these two souls that he himself had created.

The front door opened and Arjun walked in. Whistling.

Dadi and Rashi shared a look of confusion. Scurrying up from the sofa, they rushed to his side before he took the staircase to his room.

"Rukkk…." Dadis curt order stopped Arjun in his tracks. He turned around and smiled at them.

"Aap log abhi tak soye nahi? Raj kaha hai???"

Dadi just stared at him and Rashi answered. "Raj kabka sogaya. Hum… Hum tere wait karrahe they…"

Arjuns eyebrows shot up in surprise. So Major General and Brigadier were awake and the rest of the shaitanon ki toil was sleeping!

"Mera wait… Lekin kyu?" Feigning innocence, Arjun looked at dadi and Rashi. The next moment his ear was caught and twisted hard by dadi.

"Aaarrrggghhh…" Arjun tried to free himself as dadi held on tight.

"Ye nautanki apni lugaai ko jaake dikhana! Ab tu chup chap batayega kya hua ya tera dusra kaan bhi pakdu???"

"Batata hu batata hu! Pehle kaan to chodo daaddi!!!"

Dadi left his ear and placed her hands on her hips, glaring at her grandson and waiting for him to report. Rubbing his ear vigorously, he frowned at his grandmother and sister.

"Kya jaanna hai aapko? Mein bas waha gaya, Arohi ko dekha aur wapas aagaya."

"Dekha? Mila nahi?? Aur woh Karan? Woh bhi tha waha???" Dadi was getting impatient now and Rashi was getting worried. She desperately hoped that her brother did not get hit by dadis jootas today.

"Haan… Mein Arohi se milne nahi gaya tha, uss Karan ko dekhne gaya tha. Achha ladka hai. Arohi ke liye thoda jyada handsome hai. Mujhe lagta hai woh khud hi Arohi ko reject kar dega." Arjun folded his hands on his chest and answered thoughtfully.

"Oye… Meri bahu badi soni hai… Samjha! Woh toh tujh jaise nalayak ke chakkar mein pad gayi issliye… Warna usse koi ladka kabhi reject hi nahi kar sakta!!!"

"Ek baat batao dadi… Aap meri dadi ho ki usski! Woh soni hai aur mein nalayak???"

"Mein tum dono ki dadi hu. Tum dono ko khush dekhna chahti hu aur mein jaanti hu ki tum dono ki khushi saath saath rehne mein hai."

"Ye samajhdari ki baatein aap apni bahu ko bhi bataiye na! Mein ladkon ke saath date pe nahi jaaraha… woh jarahi hai!"

"Aur tu ussko jaane dega???"

"Aur mein kya kar sakta hu??? Agar woh jana chahti hai to mein usse rok to nahi sakta? Aur agar roka, toh aapko lagta hai, ki aapki aagyakari bahu meri baat sunegi???"

Rashi looked at dadi who looked thoughtful and a little worried now. She had allowed dadi to take over the interrogation and watched the exchange in silence. She knew whatever Arjun said was the truth, but it was not the complete truth. He was trying to shift the focus and blame, from him to Arohi. He was trying to distract dadi and he had been successful. But she was not distracted. She also knew that this was not the way to get the truth out of him. So she decided to use a different strategy.

"Ye Karan sachme bohat handsome hai kya???"

Arjun looked at Rashi, surprised at the odd question. Shrugging his shoulder, he tried to sound indifferent.

"Theeek hai… I mean kaunsa ladka cream pants pe black jacket pehenta hai. Brown is the right colour, black is too stark. So fashion sense ke mamle mein woh aur Arohi ek jaise hai." He smirked at his own joke, but his audience was not amused.

"Lekin Arohi thodayi usske kapde dekhegi. Shes more deep as a person. Im sure he must be a nice guy issliye Arohi usske saath date pe jaane ke liye ready hogayi. Haina dadi?" Rashi turned and winked and dadi caught on.

"Haannn… Haan! Waise bhi Arohi ko aisa hi ladka chahiye jo usse samajh sakey aur ek achha insaan ho."

Arjun shifted uncomfortably. He was not liking the way this conversation was headed. Usse samajh sakey??? Arohi ko toh bhagwan bhi nahi samajh sakta, toh koi insaan kya samjhega??!! Aur kaunsa achha insaan kisi ki wife ke saath date pe jaata hai??!!! Bloody langoor kahika…

"Correct dadi. Aur Arohi ko aisa ladka mil gaya toh kisi aur ki taraf dekhegi bhi nahi. Im sure usski nazar Karan se hati bhi nahi hogi." Rashi pressed more.

"My foot!!! Arohi ne uss langoor ko dekha bhi nahi. Usski aankhen sirf mujhpe thi." Unable to bear this nonsense, Arjun burst out.

"Achha woh toh formality ke liye dekha hoga. Lekin pyar bhari nazar to sirf Karan pe hogi na???"

"Bilkul nahi!!! Usska pyaar aur usski nazar, dono mere taraf they jab maine usske liye…" Arjun stopped and realised what was happening here. He darted a look at Rashi and Dadis expectant faces. The women in his family were so manipulative!!!

"Tuney usske liye… ???" Dadi inquired.

Arjun narrowed his eyes. "… bhangra kiya!!!"

"KYAAA??!!!!" Rashi and Dadi yelled together.

"Haan!!! Maine Arohi ko dekha aur woh meri taraf daudke chali aayi, ussne mujhe jor se gale lagaaya, mein khush hogaya and aur maine bhangraa kiya! Yahi sunna chahte they na aap log?"

Dadi and Rashi glared.

"Ab aapki CID giri khatam ho chuki ho toh mein jaa sakta hoon?!" Turning around Arjun started climbing the staircase.

Dadi shook her head. Twisting his ear so hard also had not worked! Rashi looked at his back when she suddenly remembered.

"Billu ko phone kar lena. He wanted to talk something very important to you." Rashi spoke when he was halfway up the stairs.

Arjun stopped midway, nodded without turning around, and continued up to his room.

+

"Goodnight Karan." Arohi looked up at him, as the streetlight shone upon his dark black mass of hair.

He just nodded. Taking her hand in his he said, "Just think about what we spoke."

Arohi covered his hand with hers. She nodded and smiled at him.

"So I will call you tomorrow???" Arohi nodded again at his question.

"Thank you Karan."

"You're most welcome." Kissing her forehead, Karan moved back a step. As she waved goodbye to him, Arohi felt the sky start to whirl. Holding her head, Arohi felt like she was spinning around as she fainted right into Karans arms.

+

The entire Ahluwalia family was in the living room. Arohi was sitting on the couch, staring at the floor, as her mother held her hand, crying softly. Karan was sitting on her other side, his elbows on his kness, his head hung down between his shoulders. Her father was talking on the phone, barking orders to his assistants, clearly upset. Her taiji was standing in one corner looking at her, her eyes glancing over to other members briefly before it returned back on Arohi. Arvind and Rajveer Ahluwalia were talking to the doctor.

As Lovedeep entered the house, her eyes took in the entire scenario. She was clueless but could feel the tension in the room till her bones. Her footsteps faltered as she looked at each and everyone, asking with her eyes as to what exactly had happened. But she just got to see tensed faces, without any answers.

"Sorry doctor. Hamare family doctor, Dr Agarwal out of town hain, issliye itni raat ko aapko bulaana pada."

"Koi baat nahi. His assistant forwarded the call to me as we are professional colleagues. Ye raha mera card. Agar kisi bhi cheez ki jaroorat pade to mujhe phone kijiye. Till Dr Agarwal comes back please feel free to call me." The middle aged, white haired doctor, with a warm smile shook hands with Rajveer and moved to the front door.

Arohi looked up and her eyes met Lovedeeps. Arohis eyes were blank, as if she had just got up from a deep sleep and was feeling disoriented. She could not believe the entire scene that had played out a few minutes ago. Seeing Lovedeep gave her a huge amount of relief but the doctors words were still resonating in her ears. Amongst the worried and anxious people surrounding her, the doctor, after checking her, had given a huge smile and said,

"Congratulations… She is pregnant!"
