CHAPTER-10.
When I am silent,you think me as weak..
When I am loud,you complain I am too strong..
But when I am trying to make you listen to me-
All you can do is think me wrong..
Veera woke up later than normal after spending an almost sleepless night..
She had cried herself to sleep,finally in the early morning,and all time in her sleep she had dreamt of Baldev only..
She was soon out of the house in search of him..She needed talk to him..Desperately..
But the entire day was a waste as she did not see a single glimpse of him..Every guy who pointed her to a direction,where he worked as the manager of the construction site,she could not find him..
As she sighed and returned home with a heavy heart,deciding to corner him at night school,she did not notice a dark tall figure looking at her from behind some bushes..
Baldev had seen her looking for him,and had moved away just in time..He did not want to have anything to do with her..
He only had to stay here,a week and then he would be gone again..But for the time being he wanted to avoid her.
What was the point of coming infront of her,when all he was going to do was irk her and hurt himself..?
It was better that he stayed alone with his pain..He sighed out and closed his eyes,as he felt a familiar twist in his heart..
All he wanted to do was hug her tight and tell her how much he had missed her,that she meant the world to him,and he could not go on without her..That he could not sleep last night even after the strenuous exercise he had forced onto himself..That all he had wanted to do was to run after and carry her away,even if needed,by force ,and claim her as his rightfully..
But alas!The reality was so much more complicated..So much more dark..
The reality was crystal clear..Veera decided,as she lay back on her bed,lost in thoughts..
It was very simple..As simple as it could get..
She,Veera Sampooran Singh,was in love with Baldev..Had realized her love as soon as he had vanished from the village on fine morning..
And the days following had been torture to her..Every little thing had made her yearn for him..She had burned in the fire,and was now deeply and madly in love with her Baldev Singh..Her Dev..
On the other hand,Baldev was in love-..?
Veera frowned,unsure whether he still harbored the same feeling for her,as he had done six months ago..?
Maybe he was physically attracted to her only,and..
A blush covered her cheeks in memory of the physical attraction..The level they had almost traveled last night..
But one thing was sure..If Baldev still loved her,he would need a complete surrender from her..And maybe some strong fight from her behalf too.
Veera smiled lovingly remembering his teasing naughty smile..It had been so long he had seen him smile..She was ready to fight the world to get her old Baldev back..She was ready to go to any length to get him back..She was ready to woo him in every way possible..
She was ready to let him know and tell him how much he meant to her..She was ready to let go of everything and love him completely..She was ready to become his..
There is a saying that Easy said,but not easy Done..That came completely true for Veera..
Two days had passed,and she neither had been able to say him anything,and nor had she managed to find a trace of him,or catch a glimpse of him anywhere..!
And she was already at the end of her patience,and frustrated like hell..!
She was also scared..Very,very,VERY scared of losing him again..
And so on the third day,she decided to sit outside his cottage for the whole night if need be,and wait to catch him..
When Veera Sampooran Singh had decided to get something,there was very little that could stand on her way..And this once she wanted Baldev Singh,and she would do anything to get him back..
A tired and sweating Baldev walked to his lonely home,at the end of another tiring and draining day..
He looked up at the night sky,which showed flashes of thunder,giving signal of an upcoming storm..
These days his life seemed even more bleak than usual..
What a boring and frustrating life it was,when day in and day out,he had no one to talk to,except the silence of the walls of his cottage,or the surrounding trees..
He had even forgotten to laugh..When was the last time he had laughed..?It was before he left Pritampura he remembered..
With a sigh,he was unlocking his door,when a soft hand closed over his..
Instantly he went rigid,knowing full well who it was..
He cursed himself for not being careful tonight..He had thought she had given up,and after not finding him here the last two days,she had given up..But he was wrong..Very wrong,he decided,as he was whirled round..
"Kaisa hai Baldeva..?
[How are you Baldeva..?]"Baldev could only gulp as he stared down at her.
His eyes then moved to how she looked..She looked drop dead gorgeous in a tight fitting pink Punjabi suit,with her hair tied in a long plait,and her eyes looking larger and beautiful than normal due to something she had done to them..Even her lips looked juicy,and seemed to be inviting him to bite and suck on them..
He inhaled a steadying breath,as his body tightened in reaction to his wild thoughts..
But then she moved closer to him,pushing him up against the door of the cottage,as a sweet wisp of her perfume drowned him in its magical mouthwatering essence..
"Mainu vekh ke bhagega nahi aaj..?
[Not going to run after seeing me..?]"She said softly,as her one finger lightly caressed his one bearded cheek,and Baldev hissed in a sharp breath..
Veera moved closer to him,and Baldev felt his blood heating up fast,when he heard the tinkling sounds of her glass bangles,as she moved her hands to hold his collar..
Baldevcould not look away from her mesmerizing eyes..
"Waise chahe to koushish kar sakta hai ek vaari..Par aaj main tainu chaddunga nahi..Bilkul bhi chaddunga nahi..
[If you want you can try once..But today I won't let go of you..Won't let go of you at all..]"She said the words as if in a promise..
And Baldev suddenly felt he wanted to believe them,even if it meant getting hurt again..Even if it meant getting fooled by a mirage again..
But this once he wanted to believe her...Feel her..Let himself love her..Just this once..
He thought achingly as he lost himself in the depth of her beautiful dark brown eyes,once again..And the thunder rolled closer and closer,warning of upcoming storm,or was it storms..?
