Chapter 4.
"Welcome to Brasso Nagar sir... where all your dreams can come true...the finest wine...the finest women anything to suite your taste...and for you Free..for saving my life!!!"
Vickram looked at this guy, Bunty , he called himself, a geeky looking pimp who he as the misfortunes of stopping a couple of guys from beating him senseless. At the moment all he wanted to do was punch him in the face.
He was a pesky fella who insisted he had to repay Vickram and invited him here, and the more he looked around it was obvious this was nothing more than a red light district with girls selling there person openly.
"look, Bunty..is it...this is not my thing... and really I don't want to be here so I'll just go right...take care..." he said as he turned to leave...
"Please Please sir...you can't leave...look I owe you...please come in ...you will enjoy it. "
"I don't want..."
"Come on...I saw you in the bar...at least let me repay you with a bottle of our finest scotch free...enjoy the show have a some drinks...Please..."
Vickram was about to refuse but he could do with some scotch... a couple of drinks would not hurt.
"Fine..." He said as he followed him into one of the buildings. An elegantly furnished place with seating all around...
"Aamma..." Bunty said "Amma meet Ustaad Vickram...if I am here today is because of him...he saved me...Amma I promised him special treatment ..on the house..."
"Really..." Amma looked at him and smiled. She frown "you look familiar...do I know you?"
"I don't think so..." He said...
"Hmm...well since you saved my boy's life...drinks are on the house...the girls though are not unless you pay you can get a discount..." She said. Vickram tried hard to keep the disgust off his face.
Before he could reply though Bunty led him to a seat, and quickly poured him a drink.
"Well gentlemen welcome " Amma said "Tonight we have a special treat for you guys...Chulbuli who was not feeling well the past few days is back to entertain you all..." That announcement was met with claps and whistles...
"So hold on to your hearts and you hats as she is about to give another scintillating performance welcome Chulbuli!!!!" The lights went dim as the small crowd grew quite. As some seedy music began playing in the back ground.
Vickram had to give it they seemed to put in some thought to this performance. The multicolored lights flashing on the stage as the silhouettes of the dancers began emerging onto a small stage area, would have been impressive if he did not know that all of this was just the hook to get these men to spend their money for a few hours of carnal pleasure.
As the central dancer took the stage, he felt the bottom fell out of his world again, even in the shadows there was something eerily familiar about her. He sat up as he forgot to breath wondering what crazy trick his mind was playing on him this time.
It could not be. It was impossible. She was dead...He closed his eyes as he took a deep breath shaking his head to clear it for whatever delusion what going on with it. As the lights came on and she turned around, Vickram felt as though his world just stopped. The place got quite, the people fell away , he was aware of nothing except the vision of life in front of him. She was alive ...She was not dead, she was in front of him, as thoughts kept running through his head that the impossible had happened. She was...
Without realizing it, moving as though in a trance he got up and started moving towards her, stopping only when he was standing in front of her . Chulbuli turned only to stop and stare at the man standing in front of her. The man from the accident she remembered him. Instinctively a smile spread across her face as she looked at him, forget for the moment she was in the middle of a routine. The world seemed to stop as she stared at a face that was strange yet familiar.
Her smile however turned into shock when he said...
"Sugni..." Almost reverently and enveloped her in a hug. "ohh God thank God , your here you're alive... Oh My God Sugni I missed you so much Ohh God..."
Chulbuli gasped as she tried to push him away but his hold on her was so tight it was impossible...
"What are you doing! Get away from her' Amma exclaimed as he felt hands preying him away from her. As they pulled him away, Amma came to stand between them shielding her from him.
"No touching the girls Mr. And what are you going on about ...are you high? that is not Sugni that is Chulbuli!" She said.
"Chulbuli?" Vickram said as some of the shock wore off and his good sense returned. "no"no---Sugni?...what are you doing here? How did you? Look I know that I put you through...Sugni .. SUGNI!!!!" He shouted as she fainted.
He moved to go near her but was held back by the bouncers. "Oh no..." Amma said as she held her up and with the help of a few of the dancers they took her inside.
"Listen mister is time for you to leave...I don't know who you think you are talking to but as I said that is not who you think it is...now please leave...Boys escort the gentleman out side."
"No No No ...you don't understand..." He began as he was dragged out the door and thrown out unceremoniously. Bunty was right behind him, looking at him as though he just lost his mind.
"Bunty who is that girl..."
"That's Chulbuli...A lot of people have that reaction when they see her she is hot..." He shot up as vickram gave him a thunderous look..."I mean...You are mistaken...she is not who you think she is..." He said.
Vickram shook his head. "I am not mistaken" That was Sugni...he felt it in his bones. When he hugged her apiece of his missing soul came alive...that was his Sugni...but what was she doing here of all places...No she could not be here...not here.
"Bunty I want to meet her...please..." He said looking at him. "What do I have to do?"
"Uhh no no Chulbuli is not the meeting type...and after just now...Amma would never allow it..."
"Well take me to Amma I'll talk to her.."
"No no Ustad I can't .."
"Bunty please this is very important...you say you wanted to pay me back for your life...I want to meet her'
"Umm uhh..." Bunty said obviously flustered with the request. "look now it is impossible...but let things cool down and...and in the morning I can see if Amma would talk to you...I can't promise you but maybe...it's the most I can do..." he said
"Ok" he said as he took a seat on the side walk in front of the building.
"Umm what are you doing?"
"Waiting...watching... I am not leaving here until I talk to Sugni at least..." He said determined.
"What are you crazy...I told you that is not Sugni and if Amma sees you..."
"What she owns the pavement now? I'd like to see her try...one way or another I am going to talk to her..." he said
Bunty shook his head wondering is Vickram had indeed gone mad. If he wanted to stay out in the cold , hey it was his funeral... he left him there thinking about all those crazy lovers her heard about growing up who would go mad over one person, and wondered if he met one.!!!
******\\\\\\/////******
Chulbuli awoke to her darkened bedroom, her skin feeling clammy. As she tried to recalled what happened before everything went black. That man! From the accident he was here...and he as saying something about a Sugni...She could not understand what he was staying because there was something about him that had her feeling strange. He hugged her , and it was supposed to be weird and creepy but it wasn't .She was confused.
The dull pounding in her head, had her taking deep breathes as she reached over to the bedside for some water. The bed side clock read 1 Am ... she was out of it for almost 4 hours. The quietness around told her that everyone in the building had retired. She refused to think about what else was going on here,that thought making her hair stand on end.
Feeling suffocated she got up and went to the window to get some fresh air.
"Oh no..." She breath as her eye caught sight of the figure sitting under the street light, he looked disheveled and cold as his arms wrapped around his torso for warmth. Why was he on the street?
Again moving before she could think she turned picked up a blanket from her closet and made her way downstairs.
Slowly she approached his sleeping figure. The urge to just stare at him strong. Who was he ? Very quietly not wanting to wake him she knelt and placed the blanket over him. She was about to get up when he stirred turning his head he opened his eyes staring straight at her...
"I- I am sorry...you looked cold.' She said as he looked down at the blanket.
"Sugni!" He sat up... "You're here , what are you...?"
"No...I am not Sugni...I'm Chulbuli..." She said stopping him. "how are you feeling?" She asked looking at him concerned.
"What?" he said frowning at her question...
"That day...you ran into our car...you were hurt the ambulance took you away..."
He blinked she was talking to him as though she did not know him .What was going on here? Needing to figure this out he decided to play along with her...of course she hated his gut, in that case at least she would be chasing him away not covering him with blankets and enquiring about his health.
"You know sometimes when we get hit on our heads it makes us confused, and we sometimes forget things and mixed things up..." She said to him
"Huh?" what was she talking about?
"you hit your head and it was bleeding...maybe that's why you are saying that name..." She explained. It dawned on him she thought he was probably mad.
"Why are you out here...its cold you should go home." She said.
"I wanted to talk to you..." He said
"Me? Why?" She asked
"What are you doing here? This is no place for you..."
"I live here...this is my home. At least the only one I know and they take care of me" She said
"No it's not ...Sugni... You're not from here you..." he reached over to hold her hand, she pulled it away
"Don't touch me!' She said softly tucking her hand on her lap
"Sorry ..I won't but Sugni..
"I am not Sugni..." She said. "Listen you are mistaken...now please go from here you can't stay on the street..."
"Chulbuli?" Amma said as she came out..."What are you doing here?" she asked observing the scene both of them sitting on the side walk in the middle of the night.
"Amma you remember him from the accident? I think he got confused like I did...I am just trying to get him to go home..."
"You should be inside. And you Mr. What is your name?"
"Vickram..." he said
"Mr. Vickram...I do not appreciate you coming into my place and making a spectacle of yourself. I think you should go to home and get some rest, and you'll most likely find you made a mistake...which is common when people have too much to drink."
"She is right you can't stay here...please go home..." Chulbuli pleaded.
Everything in him wanted to grab her and run...but something was not right , she was not acting like herself. He knew he needed to get to the bottom of this. This lady was the key to this and right now it might be best not to get on her bad side.
He really needed to think about this... He got up...
"You're right...I am sorry for all the trouble I caused..." He said to Sugni. Handing her the blanket
"It's ok she said " Taking it, and standing as well. Their eyes met and again she felt like she knew this man closely. But that was impossible . Amma clered her throat breaking their trance.
"I'll get going..." as he turned to leave.
"Mr. Vickram...you'll come back again?" She asked impulsively. As Amma turned to look at her in shock.
"Of course, you want me to." She nodded.
"I will..." He said as he left.
"Why did you do that?" Amma asked as they went inside. "I don't want mad people in here!" She said
"Ohh Amma ...I don't think he is mad...I don't know he just seems lonely"
"He seems crazy if you ask me, but for you I'll give him the benefit of the doubt!" She said. Although she did not like it . Not one bit!
Hello Sweetie
Sorry for the Radio silence. I was down with severe flu and then had to clear backlog of before Xmas. Then was on Xmas holidays so just getting back into the swing of things.First of all Happy New Year.Secondly have read the chapters. The story is familiar but with some differences. Am a little unsure about whether I like this TVS - the fact the he hid he was married from day 1 is making me a little uncomfortable but am waiting to see how you justify his actionsLook forward to the next chapter.
CHAPTER 5
Vickram stepped out his one room apartment he was staying at, which ironically was just a stone's throw from Brasso Nagar. After a restless night, he made his way down the lane by the local tea vendor, whom he had become a regular customer of since he moved here was it a week ago? He never stayed in one place to long and was about to move again, until the impossible happened and he came face to face with Sugni!.
"God what are you doing to me?" He wondered. But he answered his own question. God was punishing him. Punishing him for all he did to Sugni. And rightfully so. How else can he explain after months of thinking she was dead he comes face to face with her and she was treating him like stranger she did not know. It was like he died, but was transported in some weird dimension where everything was up sided down.
Vickram recalled his last two months with Sugni, in Mawhari...when she found out he was married. Her heart broken expression, her angrily , then later pleading with him to leave her alone. To go back to his wife and forget her.
But he could not. In his quest to make her understand HIS feelings and HIS dilemma ...he refused to stop and think what he was putting her through. She had no idea what his marriage was, and she found out in the worse way possible about it.
For all his life Vickram was a practical man, he always looked at everything twice then again before making a decision. Then he met Sugni. The most innocent, carefree, prideful caring person he ever met. She was unlike any one he came across. Coming from the bedni clan, she knew she was not one of them...she wanted better for herself. That determination shone through her.
He knew what people were saying about him and her, but frankly he did not care. For the first time in his life he felt alive, just one smile from her made his day, and seeing her upset well that made him upset. He had no idea when he fell in love with her, but he did and all he wanted was to love her protect her and make her dreams come true.
One of that dream was living a respectable life, married without people pointing fingers at her. He wanted to give her that. What he gave her was the opposite. The minute he realized he was losing her he could not handle it.
She was the only brightness in his world...and if she walked away he could not go back to the darkness.. So he tried to explain sure she would listen... and understand and give him a chance to make things right by getting a divorce. Call it temporary insanity, but she was his world and she was slipping and he could not let that happen.
Then the unthinkable happened, after weeks of her trying to run from him and he chasing her, of arguing, crying apologizing and trying to convince her he received a letter addressed to him, from her delivered by one of her friends. As he opened it and his eyes passed through the words, his entire world tilted and burst into flames. He could not forget the words no matter how much he tried. :
Dear Thakur Mallick,
I have tried to explain it to you, I have tried my best to make you understand. There is and can't be any relationship between us. There never should have been to begin with. May be part of that was my fault, I should have known a charming man as yourself would be married.
I spent my life running from becoming one of these girls, who come into the Thakurines lives unwanted, who have to live each day with the curses of their tears. Marriage has always been a commitment, to stand by each other no matter what, a promise. You made that promise to her. I met her, she is a good woman. She loves you.
I realized now that as long as I am here you will never see that. Unwillingly I have become what I never wanted to be. And that hurts. I can't look at myself in the mirror any more. The stares and the laughter are like knives. And I can't even say I hate you because I tried . I did. Beneath all the hurt, I want you to be happy.
But I can't ruin a sacred marriage. And I am begging you, as my last wish please don't. Stop what you are planning, because living with the stain of a homewreker is hard enough, having the stain of blood on my name is unbearable.
I am leaving now, and will never interfere in your lives. This is my repentace for all the trouble I have caused. It is my due punishment for being unable to forget you as I should. Its the only way...I am sorry...
Sugni...
As he read the dreaded words , he knew she was about to do something to herself. Rushing like crazy to look for her. By the time he tracked her down she was already at the edge of the cliff looking down at the river...
"Sugni...Sugni wait...Stop!." He said running towards her
"No...no..Thakur Mallick...stay away...Leave me' She said
O- o- Kay...Please I'll do what you say...I'll leave you what you want... Just come back please...don't do this..." He pleaded...
She shook her head, as tears ran down her face, "you are just saying that...I'll always be between you..."
"Sug..."
"Good bye Thakur Mallick..." she said, as she closed her eyes jumping before he could stop her. The rains that fell had the river swollen and furiously making its way to the sea taking her with it. The echoes of her screams reverberating in his head.
He was about to follow her, when his brother stopped him. Days searching the river nothing was found and it was concluded she could never survived that fall. He had killed her or so he thought.!
Losing her like that took everything from him; life was meaningless. He heard of people who went crazy in love and he finally turned into one of them. Unable to live there with the guilt, es[pecially after hearing that his family had finally given their blessing. Too late.
He left, with just her memory to torture his soul. Wandering aim.lessly, hoping his life would end soon so he could join her. There would be no happiness in his life, because he deserved none. There would be no resting place in his life...because thanks to him she could not get that peace. That was his self-inflicted punishment, for ruining the one good thing he had.
But God had other plans it seemed, and here he was face to face with her...
"Good morning Vickram babu...have a seat your tea will be ready in a few minutes." The Vendor said as Vickram took a seat on one of the outside tables.
"Good morning Raju...thank you.." he said as he waited.
Vickram wondered what he was supposed to do here? This was no place for her , yet by the way she was acting and the reactions of some of the people she was known here. The Sugni he knew would run from a place like this, here she seemed to have resigned herself to this place.
He remembered her saying something about he got hurt like she did...with a fall like that it is obvious she would be injured. But Mawhari to Banaras was thousands of miles... This was just so confusing. He guessed the best chance he had was talking to her again and to do that he would need to go visit that place.That thought alone was enough to make his blood crawl.
"Hi!" Said a cheerful familiar voice as he looked up to see her standing next to him smiling brightly. Again he felt like he was in some weird world.
"Hello...!" he said...
"How are you feeling? How is your head?" she asked taking a seat opposite him.
"Better... thanks..." Raju came with his normal morning tea and sandwich...
"Chulbuli..beti...how are you...went to the temple I see."
"Yes Raju!...that looks good can I have what you gave him?" she asked.
"Sure sure...Where are the others?" He asked.
"They'll be here soon...they stopped to look at some new bangles Rita had..." She explained.
He nodded as he left to get her order. Vickram who was silent through out the exchange was again struck by how familiar she seemed to be of her surroundings.
"You a regular here?" he asked.
"Hmm...He makes the best tea...and whenever we visit the temple na...we must stop here! I did not expect to see you here...and this early. Where are you from?" she asked
"Mawhari..." he said impulsively...
"Where...is that somewhere close?'
"No...its far away.. Thousands of miles" She frowned...
"If it's so far how come you are here at 8 A.M.?"
He smiled slightly. "Well I am from there but for now I am staying down the street." he said pointing to the direction of his apartment." She rolled her eyes and looked at him... "Couldn't you just say that in the first place..."
"So what brings you here?" she asked.
"I don't know...fate I guess" he said cryptically.
"Huh?" She asked confused..
"What are you doing here?" he asked
"I told you I went to the temple..."
"No I mean what are you doing in a place like Brasso..."
"I live there..." She said as Raju placed her order in front of her. She took a bite of her sandwich.
"No you don't Sugni...this is no pl...:
" Ohh No not again...listen I told you na already I am not Sugni...I am Chulbuli...seems like you are still confused." She said
"No I am not... this is no place for you... Sugni your life is much better than this. Your dreams of that respectable life...living with pride where is all that??? Surely You have not forgotten that.."
"Uhhh" She said as she closed her eyes at his words...she could feel her head ache coming on again. Hurriedly she opened her bag and took the pills she used to prevent her headaches form becoming a nightmare.
"What are you doing?" He said as he saw her down the tablets. "What is that?" he grabbed the bottle from her hand before she could answer..
"Hey...Don't touch me...Give that back to me!" She said reaching to take it back. Before he could read it she took t back and put it in her bag after swallowing two.. Giving him a stern look. "How dear you?"
"Why are you taking those pills Sugni?"
"Because ..." She said. Shrugging... "And I said I am not Sugni..." He kept staring at her in a way that was beginning to make her feel uncomfortable. Obviously he did not approve of her "profession" and by his reaction to the pills he thought she was some drug junkie. She could feel like he was judging her , and she did what she always did when she felt judged. She got defensive.
"ohh please...you can get off your hight horse. Don't Judge me!" She said
"I was'nt..'
"Yes you were...I can see it...Since I met you all you been telling me is this is no place for me...well guess what This is MY home, a place you walked into gleefully last night so please you are in no position to put a stamp of approval on me..."
"Sug...
"STOP it ...with that name already!!!" She said putting her hand over her ears. Her breathing rapid as she got agitated.
"Chulbuli?" One of the girls from the brothel came over to where they were. "Is every thing Ok?" Looking at her. Her eyes watery with pain explaining it all.
" Yes...I just got..."
"Bad?" She asked.
"No...but we should go now..." She said getting up opening her purse she took out some money...
"Leave it I'll pay..." Vickram said
"Ohh no ...I don't accept charity Mister... your breakfast is on me..." She placed the money down and turned...
"Ohh and one more thing... You're not welcomed at Amma's anymore..." She walked off before he could say anything.
CHAPTER 6
"Hey Chulbuli! How are you?" Divakar asked as he walked into the foyer of the building.
"Divakar babu what are you doing here this early?" She asked . It was not even mid day, did'nthe have work to do or something she thought irritably. She was still upset by her encounter with Vickram and his disapproval of her. For some reason that hurt. Why should it matter to her she had no idea. But it did. He did not know the truth , how dear he sit and judge her when he himself was guilty of coming here in the first place. That was like the pot calling the kettle black now wasn't it?"
"So what do you say ...Any place you like" Divakar said. What was he babbling about she had no idea.
"What?" She asked
"Are'nt you listening? What is bothering that pretty little head of yours..." He said softly trying to be sweet but just coming off sleazy. "I was saying why not wear these diamond earrings with something sexy and we can go have lunch!" He repeated.
Belatedly she noticed the jewelry box in her hand. "Go on...I'll wait for you..."
"Ohh ...I am sorry Divakar babu...I -I can't I mean I have rehearsals ...and you know Amma she insists on that...it's not a good time.."
"Oh nonsense, of course she would approve...I already talked to her... don't worry . And you are such a good dancer you don't need rehearsals..." He said. Chulbuli looked at him, Amma approved? But she did not tell her anything... As if on cue she came down the stairs.
"Divakar, Darling... you are early!!!" She said greeting him with a hug.
"Well I wanted to drop off a gift for the beautiful lady." He said with a wink.
"How generous of you! Let me see." She said opening the box her eyes lighting with the sparkle of the stones. "Wow Chulbuli... very lucky you are!" She smiled. Chulbuli gave a fake smile.
"Amma I was saying there is lots to do today ..lunch is impossible right?" She said hoping she would get her meaning.
"Ohh no...You deserve a day off... and a nice lunch is just what you need...Go out get some fresh air!!!..." Amma said. "Come let me help you get ready...Divakar babu have a seat in the den while she gets ready... the girls will serve you drinks..." She said with a smile...
"Of course !" he agreed.
Chulbuli entered her room with Amma in tow. As soon as the door closed she turned to her. "Amma what is this? Lunch I- I don't want to go with him." She said plainly.
Amma looked at her and sighed. She liked to think of herself a reasonable woman. In the thirty years she been running this place, she did her best to make sure the girls got the best clients. No stragglers or ruffians. Men who would treat them reasonably well.
She developed a reputation to catering for the high class as she realzed quickly early on that was where the money lay. Most of the girls who came here had already lived on the streets long enough that she did not have to explain the deal to them.
She provided them with a comfortable place to stay , made sure they were clean and took care of them. Chulbuli however was proving to be something else. When Katari sold her to Amma , telling her she was easy since her head was whack and she could not remember anything. A new girl was just what she needed as the clients were getting bored of the same old faces.
Playing on the fact that she had no one and no money seemed to work as she resigned herself to staying here. Then Divakar saw her and was fascinated by her, the man had more money than any one she knew and he was willing to pay top dollar for one night with her. However he liked his girls willing and he was willing to wait. She knew he would not wait forever though and it was time to get her moving in that direction. For although she might sympathize with Chulbuli, she was no fool and in this business you could not give in to every tear filled face.!
" Sit..." she told her as she sat on the bed. Amma sat next to her , taking her hand she smiled.
"Look...this can be scary. It always is the frist time you go out there. But Chulbul...this is who we are ...it is what we do..." Chulbuli shook her head. "yes it is...look around you. I am here to take care of you and that is what I am trying to do. Now the faster you stop fighting this and accecpt it , the easier this is going to be on you and all of us. "
But Amma... I can't do this...'
"Of course you can." Amma looked at her steely as she said. "If you really want to leave here...if you think this is not for you...you can go out there. And I can promise you...that before the night is over someone is going to claim you...and they won't ask your permission. By the end of the week you'll be in one of the other houses where they are not as lenient as I am. And soon we will see you on the street corners turning tricks for a few dollars... and you know I am right." She stayed quite waiting for her words to sink in. She was right, Chulbuli remembered again her first night out here on the street. She shuddered. Amma did rescue her.
"Look at this..." Amma said showing her the jewelry box. "You can't get better than him around here, and you are lucky he is showing this much interest in you. I am going to be frank with you...its time for you to make a decision...are you in here our do you want to go out there. You stick with me and I'll make sure you are taken care off. But if you leave...that's it, my doors are closed for ever."
"But Amma I don't know how...I am not ready for that." She said, tears falling down her face. One way or the other she was being pulled into this.
"First of all relax...you be nice to him he'll be nice to you. I know this is daunting...you need to get yourself accustomed to this...this lunch is a good start. Don't get emotionally involved here ...this has nothing to do with feelings dear...it is strictly business. They pay for what you have you just have to make sure they pay good..." Amma went on about the do's and don'ts of the girls . Chulbuli thought she would be sick. Listening to her talk about it, she made it sound like an office job! Only it was not.
Wiping her face in an almost motherly fashion she said. "it gets easier I promise...you know I'll take care of you. Who knows you might enjoy the lunch. You can't go down there with this face...so come on get cleaned up and I'llfind you something nice to wear...don't worry it'll be ok..."
Slowly Chulbuli went to the bathroom , where under the rush of the water she cried her eyes out. She could not believe she was going to do this "Oh God Please ...don't let this happen." She cried.
\\\\\\*****//////
Vickram was wandering the street thinking about what he learned earlier that day. After she left him stunned and staring after her, still wondering about her weird behavior. Raju came to their table to clear the dishes.
On impulse he started to ask him about the girls at the place. As Raja seemed to be familiar with them. He seemed fond of them, as he spoke of the girls a respected clients, who makes visits to his shop once or twice a week going to the temple. They did what they had to to survive but they were good people. It was obvious he had genuine affection for them.
"Chulbuli" he learned was the newest addition to the group . She came here a few months ago when Amma brought her from the hospital. What was wrong with her ? He did not know. But Amma took her in and now she was one of them.
Only now Vickram was more convinced that that was indeed Sugni, who thought she was Chulbuli, and she treated him like a person she just met. He wondered if her fall did something to her memory. Now that was ironic , the one who occupied his thoughts night and day had no idea who he was or just how much she meant to him. Maybe that was a good thing all he did was give her hell any way when she knew him. What better punishment could there be for him not even being part of her memory.
Come what may he had to get her out of this hell. And to do that he needed to talk to her again and get her to come with him some how. That was not going to be easy but he would , if it was the last thing he ever did he would make sure she was safe again. Safe and happy, even if that meant living the rest of his life living with her hatred he would, as he deserved no less but until he gave up that last breath he will do all he could to make her world right again.
That would be his repentance for all the that hurt pain and damage that he caused her. It was because of him she was living in this place, he took it as a sign from above that this was to be his restitution towards her.
Belatedly he noticed the black car as it drove out of the street. It looked about as out of place here as a bull in a china shop. His blood ran cold as he noticed who was sitting in the passenger side. Sugni!?! The driver looked like a slick sleez bag for sure.
" Oh No...no no no, don't do this please Sugni ...Oh God Please don't. " He wondered how was he supposed to save her from this? He had to do something. His eyes fell on a taxi as it dropped off a passenger. Before the person was out he jumped in. " Follow that black car, I don't care where it goes . Hurry!' he said.

"I thought we were going to a restaurant?" Chulbuli said as they walked into the hotel a short while later. She could not help but wring her hands in her nervousness. She was not one to sit and feel sorry for herself, she knew she would have to find a way out of this.
Her prayers seemed to have been answered when one of the other girls, Chameli came and offered to help her get ready, as Amma left to make sure Divaker was comfortable. It so happened that once upon a time Divakar had fancied Chameli .
Noticing her nervousness, she said. "You're not ready for this are you?" She shook her head.
"Well there may be a way you can get out of it, and Amma won't be any wiser...but you have to be smart about it. "Keep in mind that eventually you won't have any choice in the matter!" She nodded. She knew that.
"Ok he has one weakness you can use against him, ...listen..." She listen as as Chameli talk about Divakar, as she smiled seeing a window of hope.
So here she was just hoping to get an opportunity to use what chameli told her to get out of this. She knew she might only have one shot.
He smiled. "Ohh I thought we might enjoy a bit more privacy than a crowded restaurant...this will give us a chance to get to know each other better!" He winked. She did her best not to shudder. She pasted a fake smile on her face and followed him to the room.
She made a bee line straight to the window looking out at the street below , looking for an opportunity. "hmmm nice view huh!" She nodded as he picked up the room service menu.
She noticed he placed his phone and keys down on one of the side tables.
She let out an over dramatic gasp... "Oh my God...Ohhh How beautiful...I need to get me some ..." She said excitedly.
He placed the menu down as he came to see what had her so excited. He looked out but noticed nothing. "What is it...? " he asked.
"Ohh you see those flowers...in the flower shop there..look they have purple Orchids...I looove purple orchids, culd you get me some ...please..." She batted her eyes at him. As she placed her hand on his fore arm flirtatiously.
He looked at her hand and smiled. Apparently she would do any thing for the flowers.
"Of course if it's what you want...I'll ask the hotel to send some one for it..."
"tut tut tut.." She frown and pouted... " What Divakar Babu...can you get them yourself...I mean it makes a girl feel all special when a man picks out the flowers for her...you know it sets the mood!" His eye brows shot up... he was liking this side of her.
"ohh ...well in that case...I'll be happy to get you those orchades. He said placing his hands on her shoulders. She forced her self not to react.
"Tell you wat why don't you order us the room service...and I'll just go over to the flower shop and be back." He said.
"Sure...What would you like?' She asked.
"Any thing you order will be fine...I'll be right back ." She let out a sigh of relief as he left. She ran to the window to make sure that he was on his way to the shop. He eye caught a figure standing on the opposite side of the road. Vickram ? What was he doing here. ? No she was imagining things as she shook her head looked and he was gone.
She spotted Divakar as she crossed the street and he knew she only had a few minutes. Hurrying back in the room she grabbed his cell phone as she looked through his contact list until she came across the number she wanted
Talking the hotel phone she placed the call. She waited a few seconds as it rang.
"Hello?" A female voice answered.
In a very high pictched voice Chulbuli said. " Hello Mrs, Singhania... Do you know where your husband it right now?" She asked.
"What?'
"My God...I am shocked seeing him at the Oriass Hotil... with a woman who I definitely know not his wife...Ohh My god and his hands all over her...tut tut tut...really Ma'am that is bad..."
"Who is this?' The voice said.
"You have better thing s to worry about that who this is... but if you are ok with this then ...sorry I disturbed you..just trying to do you a favor you know woman to woman..." She hung up the phone with out saying another word.
Not two seconds later his cell phone began ringing...Perfect. She thought . As she took the menu and ordered something from the room service menu.
A few minutes later Divakar returned carrying a large bouquet of purple orchids.
"Here you are ...beautiful flowers for a beautiful lady!" He said presenting it to her.
"Ohh these are sooo lovely. Thank you ...!" She said taking them from him. He tried to hug her but his cell phone went off at that moment. .
"Uh...who could that be." He asked irritated.
"I don't know but you should get it ..it's been ringing like that since you left." He looked at the caller ID.
"Shit...what dose she want?" he mumbled.
"Who is it?" She asked..
"Uh... nothing...give me a minute" he said as he answered the phone.
"Hello... Um I am in a meeting.. what? Why would I do that.. No.. No Yes yes...WHATT? I had no idea your father was coming today...why did'nt you...ohh ok ok...yes ...yes... Now I understand... OK..."
Chulbuli listened to the on sided conversation, trying to keep a confused face. According to Chameli he had a very rich wife , who although aware of his philandering ways, kept him around for her father's sake since he did not take lightly to the stigma of divorce.
Divakar was not crazy enough to get on his father in laws bad side, as he the man had a lot of money and a frail body. So in front of him they pretended to be a happy couple. His wife also used it to her advantage to get him to do her bidding.! She did er best to keep her husband in check but obviously was not always successful. Chulbuli was happy as she was almost out of this jam.
The soft knock on the door signaling their lunch order , quietly she went and received it as he ended his call...
"Uhh...I am sorry can you take this back.?" He said to the bell boy. "we have to leave now."
"Now?" Chulbuli said looking at him in shock.
"I am sorry an emergency came up and I really really really need to get to my office in 10 minutes." He said.
"is everything alright?" She asked.
"Yes it will be I just need to get there...listen.." he said after he tipped the bell boy who left with the untouched food... he took out a $100 bill and handed it out to her.. "Can you get yourself back I need to go to the office and it is on the other side of town..." He said looking mildly embarrassed.
She looked at the note, and sighed. "It's Ok Divakar Babu...I don't want your money I'll find my way back..." before he could answer his phone went off again.
"It seems really important we should leave now." She said. He nodded. As they went to the elevators to make their way downstairs.
