Ek aur Tajmahal...!(kabhi FF) chapter 2 - Page 13

"why have all returned you bare hands, where are the heads of those mens who dare to touch our Avantika." Vismaya confronted vishal , pooja thali which she had in her hand she refused to take aarti of her husband and gave him a look of disappointment and disgust.

"vismaya, they have been punished .Now they cannot see the rays of sun for their rest of their life, black lonely cage is their home for ever now. I will make sure them to never get escape." He says in a determined tone, with this he brings his finger on the kumkum in thali and apply it on his forehead- tilak. Then he again dips his thumb in thali and picking up in pinch he applies it on her head partition. (maang bharna), vismaya smile widens and she leaves his side for him to come in. When he enters he finds Avantika staring at him with wide eyes.

"no one will now dare to look at you with disrespect avani. You are free to go anywhere." He says with a smile. Avantika stares at her brother with wide eyes for few minutes as fear forms on her forehead. She never liked any violence around her, but her faith was sealed with the surname Rajpoots.

"i shall call bhairaja and inform him too. He must be waiting for our call" vismaya says happily to her husband and vishal approves it with a nod.

She puts the thalli aside and taking her cell phone she dials her brother's number.

"Bhairaja, everything is sought out now, yes those sarin's men have been punished. Yes, ji. Wait a second" she keeps a hand on the receiver and calls vishal.

"vishal .bhaiya wants to talk to you , hmm" she shows cell in air and vishal obediently gets up and walk up to her.

"pranaam bhairaja" he says playing with his collar and then clearing his throat.

"bhairaja, boliye na, your evry word is hokum for me." He says with a straight face.

"yes bhairaja, i do understand. When is he coming to see avantika?" vishal asks scratching her brow; Adjusting his glasses over nose.

He nods with a soft yes before hitting the disconnect tab over the phone.

"kya kah bhairaja ne?" he hears his wife voice just next to him , her voice holds curiousity, queries, and plenty of doubts.

"biwi." He circles his arm romantically around vismaya; "we have to start our preparations soon. Bhairaja is sending Aadi here." He stops purposely and the little shimmer in vismaya's eyes changes to sudden enlargement.

"but why?" she quickly asks and vishal pulls her cheek like a little excited kid.

"he is coming to see Avantika. For?" he gives a wry smile , purposely holding on again in between and later part her smart wifey understood herself.

"oh my god!" she shouts in excitement, " aadi is coming to marry her" she says and vishal hits his hand on his face with amusement, he stops her jumping before correcting her; " no my dear queen , he coming here to see Avantika for marriag, nothing is fixed thou." He says with a chuckle.

Its now turn of Vismaya to hit her husband's forehead playfully, " baat to ek he hai." She say before breaking the hug; "can anyone say No to our Avantika, our avani is princess and an apple of our eye. I am sure aadiwill like her the minute he sees her.

"like how i had fell for you" she hears her huband again snaking his arm to pull her and she again hit his hand playfully; " har waqt romance sujhta hai apko. Hato samne se i have to do lot of preparation before he comes. Samjhe?" she asks raising her brow at him with her hands on her waist and poor hubby just pouts his lips with a Yes, a defeat one.

Other part in Madhya Pradesh,

"pick this shit and throw it somewhere out of the boundary of Garh." A heavy sharp and authoritive voice echoes from the palace and immediately five six heavy built up man come running to the spot. They looked down at the body of a wrestler who looked defeated and was now tasting mud from floor. His family are crying and calling him to wake up from with in the boundary of maidan.

"any one else want to give it a try. I still have energy to kick 100 of asses" he challenges every one looking at every face who came as an audience to watch this game.

Yes, its a game. It is played by royal members men's and anyone from a comman man. Every one is given equal opportunity to fight and those who wins gets a good ransom of cash , the amount is so big that the one who gets it do not have to work for his complete life, he could live a luxirous life forever. But unfortunately, from the day kapoors, have over taken this place, its only has been their man who had win, and those who lost had lost their lives.

"bhai waah!" a strong and commanding voice in flow of encouragement echoed in air, and soon it got followed with the rhythm of claps

Every one got their hands to their sides, women took duppta over their head and mens lowered their head out of respect.

"bhairaja, bahut khus hua. I declares for this winner a prize money of one crore.and also i appoints him as a body guard to Padmavathi my wife, your queen." He completes with a hand raise and every one starts to praise his name "bhairaja ki jay. Bhairaja ki jay"

Bhairaja enters his grand mansion, and is welcomed by his son Ajinkya, purab and his daughter Malvika, Radhika.. he smiles at everyone as each child come to touch his feet. " khush raho" he says with an adorn smile to girls and for his son " yashasvi bhav" he gives his son blessing for victory.

" ap aa gaye, kaisa raha khel?" padmavathi walks in from kitchen and handing him a glass of water she inquires with a smile.

"bahot acha tha, anand aa gaya hume waha apni jeet per" he arched his body and raised his head high to show his proudness he is experiencing at this minute.

"padma." He calls his wife as soon as he finds her turning back to her work.

"ji?" she asks with her beautiful smile.

"aadi se kaho ke wo tyaar ho jaye, unhe ab vismay ke ghar bhej rahe hai" (ask adi to get ready he is sending him to vismaya's home) he says with a smile and she nods her head in approval.

"i will tell him." she smiles and leaves for kitchen with a smile, instructing the maids a list to do further work.

"Maa." She calls out as Bhairaja's mother accidently bumps to her.

"what did balwant said?" kaushalya kapoor, mother of bhairaja asks with a nose high.

"he said that aadi is going to stay with Vismaya for few days. I think he is planning to get vismaya's sister in law marry to aadi." She shares the info with kaushalya with a broad smile.

"vismaya!" kaushalya exclaims remembering the small girl his husband had got home when balraj a.k.a Bhairaja was 25. They found her on street homeless and her innocent melted her husband's heart and he took her as his family member.

"she is such a sweet and well cultured girl. Full marks for my bholu's choice" the fake proudness kaushalya showed melted away and she started laughing on her own cracked joke.

Padma too laughed out with her, they let her little laughing gas subsides before kaushalya raised her brow to ask something serious; " Oh, but where is Aadi ? Have you seen him today? I am glad he wasn't there for this fight. God knows what kind of satisfaction does balraj gets by seeing people bleeding!" kaushalya nods her head in disappointment and padma's face too falls on the same.

"pata nahi kaha hai ye ladka? Subah se nazar he nahi aya." Padma chuckles with worry and looks here and there to ask someone when Purab elder brother of Aadi enter.

"purab come her." She calls with respect and he comes; " have you seen Aadi today? Do you know where he is?" she asks with lines on her forehead.

"nahi maa, i haven't seen him from morning i and bade bhaiya Ajinkya were busy with preparations for the event. I think you should ask Radhika, she will know better as it is she and aadi are twins and share a bond more like a friend" he completes with a hint of jealousy.

"wrong!" radhika answers from back with a tease, she adjust her glass on her nose before walking to purab ; " i am elder to Aadi, i was born 5 minutes before remember?" she asks sketically and purab rolls his eyes at her.

"lijiye maa, here she is, ask her. I have to go somewhere urgent." He says and walks away.

"so meri elder beti, where is your bhai?" kaushaly asks with a pamper.

"maa, i got up early to give water to tulsi today, as i was doing pooja i saw bhai taking his car to the west side of city. I had called him but i guess he didn't hear my voice from high speeding car. I thought like every year bhai did not want to be part of this game like me , and may be wanting to be alone and tired of all this going around he left. And i was perfectly happy to let him leave alone , atleast he wont punish himself later for anything , babuji's order."

No body said anything after Radhika completed, a sad face immediately spread on kaushalya , padma and radhika's face. Being the most favourite son of Balraj , Aadi was always seen with hopes and wishes. Many were out of his reach; this life what his father wished to give him was not what he wanted. So he fought, every seconds of his life to avoid to have the same faith like his elder brothers had. He had been disappeared from many event of family, just to avoid to take responsibility of his father. Balraj trusted aadi's intelligence and smartness more than his any son's and so he wished him to be his next heir for his vast empire. But after aadi's constant defying his wish, balraj thought to make him marry, atleast there after he would understand and take responsibility with his father.Padma had often seen him crying in lawn and in his room , early mornings. Her heart ached to hear his sad sigh which he took crying on her laps, he wanted freedom from this life, but she couldn't give her the only thing he asks her , as his faith was sealed even before his birth.

Just when she thinks about his son, the main door opens, and in comes Aadi. His red swollen eyes already had told padma about his history of not being in home today. he looks at his mother with a sigh and quietly makes his way towards his room. He locks himself up alone in his bedroom, shuts his windows to keep out the beautiful day light and makes himself an artificial night. This mood of his is going to bring bad news , unless someone smart can fix what's bothering him...
