CHAPTER 30
kailash was late for their date. he said he'd be there soon but there still had been no sign of him. "where are you kailash?" deepa wondered worriedly. suddenly she heard a huge commotion coming from the compound outside her bedroom window. she rushed over to see what is was & a shocking sight greeted her. ajay & kailash were having a huge fight in the compound with loads of curious onlookers around them. deepa hit herself on her head & rushed outside. as she ran the stairs she could hear the guys' voices becoming louder. "what are you saying? she loves me!!" kailash yelled at ajay angrily. "no buddy! she loves me. she has always loved me!" ajay screamed back equally irritated. deepa just stood staring there open mouthed. it was the first time two guys had so openly fought for her. she didn't know whether to be embarrassed or honoured. soon the war of words escalated into a fistfight & deepa had to step in to stop the fight.
she tried to pull them apart but both of them were too big & strong. she tried to ask the bystanders for help too but they all refused. "STOP IT!!" deepa screamed as loudly as she could. the entire crowd went silent including ajay & kailash who had been in the middle of a tussle. they all gaped at her as they had never seen deepa look so angry & bothered before. both ajay & kailash reached out for deepa, intending to comfort her but she moved away. "don't touch me both of you. what in the world are you thinking? fighting in the open like a bunch of cavemen? I don't want to talk to anyone now." with that she turned & ran up to her apartment, crying.. ajay & kailash released their grip on each other's shirt. now they had to comfort deepa, that was much more important than their fight. deepa's tears hurt both of them immensely.
"deepa.. deepa.. please open the door. let's talk." they both rapped on deepa's apartment door gently. "go away!" came the muffled reply. "no, we won't go away till you open the door. let's talk about this. please open the door!" kailash insisted. after a few moments of silence, the door opened & there stood deepa. her face tearstained & she looked really confused. before kailash or ajay could say anything, she went in. they both followed her into the hall where deepa beckoned both of them to sit down. "so tell me. what is left to talk about? you both have already hurt me. now you guys want to hurt me even more by fighting even more?" she enquired in an icy tone. ajay & kailash cringed at her tone & started their explanations.
"deepa, we both love you a lot. I am not ready to give up. neither is ajay willing to give up. so we both decided that we both will woo you & you have to choose one of us. the guy who is rejected will stay away from you. instead of fighting among ourselves, we have decided to fight for your love." kailash finished his sentence off firmly. "but.. how I am supposed to chose one of you? I can't hurt either one of you." deepa replied in a bewildered tone. "you have to deepa. if not I & kailash might end up killing each other in a fight." ajay replied with a very grim expression. deepa sighed tiredly & nodded. she already had enough for the day. "okay. it's settled then. you look tired. we'll leave now." kailash smiled down at deepa. ajay came over & planted a kiss on deepa's right cheek while kailash kissed her on her left cheek. "bye deepa!" they both gave her a lingering look as they left. "it's either nothing or two. why? WHY?" deepa screamed at her ceiling. she felt that she might have to be admitted in a mental asylum because of these 2 guys.
